Chapter 150 – If It’s Pickled, Go to the Next Level

@@

“Dr. Jennifer Cash! Hello!”

Adele greets you cheerfully.
The doctor, whose behavior was cute, smiled brightly.

“Nice to meet you, Adele.”

“Wow! You are so pretty because you smile!”

The doctor was overjoyed.
She knew she was pretty.
But Adele in front of me, as well as Silvia… Even Sehwa and Yuria.
She was in a state of low self-confidence because there were so many beauties around her, but she was cheered up when Adele, who was unlikely to lie, told her that she was pretty.

“Thank you. Has your Korean improved a lot?”

“Yes! I studied hard! By the way, where is Jihyeok?”

When Jihyeok’s name suddenly came out of Adele’s mouth, the doctor’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

“Jihyuk? Why is Jihyeok…?”

“Because I miss you! A very nice colleague, Mr. Jihyeok!”

A colleague… A person with a personality like Adele will come running if it’s good.
Asking the doctor where he is even though he knows Ji-hyeok’s contact information is in line with the fact that he does not contact him personally.
If so, he didn’t seem to like him as a man.
The doctor let out a sigh of relief and replied.

“Jihyeok went home for a while.”

“At home? Why?”

“I have work… Is this your favorite spaghetti?”

When the distraught doctor held out her envelope, Adele stared into it and chuckled.

“Wow! Pasta! Like!”

Adele jumps in place.
It was nice to see, but it seemed too immature.
I couldn’t believe that a child like this was so strong…
The doctor entered her house, exchanged brief greetings with Sylvia, and turned on the interpreter she had handed over.

“Why are you here alone today?”

Sylvia’s polite question.
It was very courteous.
He is a friend who always exudes a sense of calm, so like Jihyeok said, Adele and I thought it would be a good pairing.
But why do they keep looking for Ji-hyeok? It’s a little nerve-wracking.

“Jihyeok is a bit busy, so I came.”

“I see… Is the device production going well?”

The doctor couldn’t help but sting.
For four days he couldn’t make anything.
He didn’t even go to the lab at all.
The doctor, who had swallowed saliva indistinctly, lied nonchalantly.

“Yes. It’s smooth. But it’s still a long way off. It takes a long time to make.”

“I will wait forever. Thank you, Doctor.”

I’m sorry… I’m so sorry.
Even if it’s late today, I’ll go to the lab with Jihyeok and start production.
The doctor who made that promise smiled brightly.

“I’m glad you seem to be doing well. I’ll just go.”

“Already? Too bad…”

“I mean busy. Today, I’m here to deliver food only. Let’s talk later.”

“Yes, I will not disturb you. Please go in carefully.”

Sylvia had a misunderstanding.
The doctor himself knows that he is going to make a device.
What would your face look like if you honestly said you were going to buy food for Jihyeok?
Perhaps I want to despise you. Just imagining it is terrifying.
Still, starting today, I can start working on my sleep while cutting back on my sleep.
Let’s not get stabbed. Then you’ll get suspicious.

“Thank you, call me if you need anything.”

“Yes, Doctor.”

Bubbling stew.
The doctor, with uneasy eyes at the overwhelmingly negative visual, scooped up the stew with a spoon and tasted it once.
Then he pulled out his tongue and wrinkled his brow.

“Driving me crazy…”

The liver didn’t fit at all.
Western style can be made beyond the basics, but Eastern style did not seem to suit him.
If Jihyeok ate, he might throw up.
I was worried that I would get bitten because I only fed him American food, but I thought it would be better for him to do what he normally does rather than give me this.

Of course, Jihyeok was good at cooking. The bean sprout soup I tasted at his officetel the other day was really light, and the side dishes were perfect for my taste.
If you get bitten, you’ll make it yourself, but I still wanted to do it with my own hands.
The doctor who turned off the induction threw away all the stew. He didn’t forget to grind up all the dregs and throw them down the drain so that Ji-hyeok wouldn’t notice.

Beep-! Beep-! Beep-!

The depressed doctor leaning his butt against the sink came to his senses when the sound of his washing machine reverberated loudly.
Taking out dozens of towels and underwear from her washing machine, she let out a sigh.
I wrote this in four days.
We had sex every time we made eye contact, whether we were dressed or not, and we showered several times a day, so there was bound to be a lot of laundry.
It was fortunate that the washing machine was large.

When I looked outside, it was raining.
Looking at the news, they said it was the rainy season for the autumn marathon… It seemed like it would rain for a few more days.
The doctor really hated rainy days.
It is because his mind has been naturally depressed because of the shady atmosphere.

It was the same even now.
No, now that Jihyeok wasn’t home, I felt more lonely than before.
Drooping his shoulders, the doctor lazily loaded the laundry into the dryer.
Why is Ji-hyeok, who said he would stop by the officetel and come back, so late?
It’s not a long distance… It’s not like you’re doing it with Sehwa, right?
His hand holding his laundry gets stronger.

“Ugh!”

Realizing what he was thinking, the doctor held his breath.
He got jealous To Saehwa, Jihyeok’s lover.
He had a bad heart for the hero who would save mankind.
Taking a deep breath and calming his mind, the doctor tilted his head when his husband’s navy blue T-shirt was nowhere to be seen.
Where have you been? Apparently, I hand washed it once two days ago, and put it in the laundry basket to wash it again…

The doctor who was looking for a T-shirt for a long time just gave up.
His feet wouldn’t have run away, so he must be somewhere.
When Ji-hyeok returns, he will have to ask.
Thinking so, the doctor turned the dryer on and went into the utility room to find a picture frame in the corner and take it out.

“…..”

A wedding photo taken out in four days.
The doctor, who stared at it with vague eyes, put the frame back in the corner.
This time, he completely covered the front.
It was because she was worried that her husband in heaven would suddenly come into the picture and watch her and Ji-hyeok’s affair.
Nonsensical thoughts. But he was stung enough to even think about it.

– If you get stabbed like that, don’t do it! You don’t have to!-

It was as if I heard my husband’s voice coming from somewhere in my heart.
Stop? It couldn’t be.
I have already become addicted to Ji-hyeok’s sweet voice, handsome face, perfect body and big things.
Her feelings for him have already grown out of control.
When I was with Jihyeok, it felt like my empty heart was being filled.
It was so good that it reminded me of the sweet married life of the past.

-Jenny… Don’t do this.-

Hear it again
Don’t do this? You are the one who left me!
How lonely I’ve been for 10 years… You can’t do this without knowing my heart.
Aren’t you being too selfish? I want to be happy too!

The doctor who was about to spit these words out of his mouth was startled.
For a moment she turned the arrows of her anger at her husband. Why did he think this way?
Like the jealousy I just had with Sehwa, and the feeling of being so lonely up until now, I think I’ve developed a sense of compensation.

The doctor, who hurriedly left the utility room, went into the bathroom, washed his face, and sat down on the sofa.

Whoa-!

The sound of the dryer coming from the quiet living room.
Loneliness seems to creep in again.
Being alone, a lot of thoughts came to my mind.

It’s scary to see Sehwa’s face.
I feel sorry for Yuria, Sylvia and Adele.
I have to show the person in charge of the headquarters… I felt so sorry for myself for doing this.
But what to do? Jihyeok is so good.

Miss you. I’m going crazy to see him caressing me with a soft tone.
Even though I mixed my body a lot, I feel like I want to keep doing it.
Now, just thinking about him touching me makes me feel wet underneath.
It was like discovering a new self.

Beep-!

I heard the sound of a card key at the front door.
Jihyeok is here.
The delighted doctor got up from the sofa and ran.

Rattle!

The door opens, and Ji-hyeok, whose one shoulder is wet, asks the doctor with a large shopping bag.

“Why were you doing that?”

Warm voice.
Heart melts A smile forms on your lips.
Sensing his heart beating, the doctor chewed his lower lip.
Right now, I want to be held in your warm arms, who cannot even be compared to my husband, but I am afraid that I will be criticized for not being able to pay for my age.
At that time when he couldn’t do this or that, Jihyeok smiled brightly and opened his arms.

“Ah…!”

You know your own heart
Jihyeok is also Yes, age is no obstacle.
What does it matter if there is Jihyeok who likes this kind of image of himself?

After a short thought, the doctor approached Jihyeok and hugged him.
Jihyeok then touches the back of the doctor’s neck and speaks affectionately.

“My older sister, you must have been very lonely.”

The doctor didn’t answer.
She was admiring Ji-hyeok’s solid body, which did not budge even though she was pushing with all of her body.
I feel it every time, but it’s amazing. A different feeling than my husband, who was somewhat dwarfed.
She thought she had a personality resemblance to Ed, but that was also cancelled.
Jihyeok had his own charm.
He fell in love even though it wasn’t long before he started meeting properly.

“Get on. Go in.”

After saying that, Jihyeok patted the doctor’s butt.
The doctor wrapped his arms around Jihyeok’s neck and jumped, wrapping his legs around his waist.

Jihyeok, who entered the house holding the doctor in his arms, sat down on the sofa.
He asks, putting the shopping bag down next to him.

“Were you doing the laundry?”

“Yes. Clothes?”

“I brought it. Here.”

I looked inside the shopping bag and saw that it was full of clothes.
I originally said I would only stay for two days… Looking at the clothes I brought, I felt like I was going to live here.
The doctor was embarrassed, but inwardly delighted.
The fact that Ji-hyeok brought so many clothes was proof that he was obsessed with himself.

I took out some clothes and put them to my nose, and I smelled a fragrant but unfamiliar smell.
It was like a fabric softener used with Saehwa.
There is also a subtle black cherry scent.
It was the same smell I smelled the other day when I woke up at Jihyeok’s officetel.
Jealousy toward Sehwa rises again.

“Let’s wash this again. It smells.”

“Smell?”

Jihyeok put his nose to his clothes and sniffed.
Then he tilts his head.

“Isn’t it flying?”

“Nope. It smells a bit musty… It’s been raining for a few days, so your closet must be damp. Or you left it wet…”

“Is it? My sister must know better than me. I do.”

“Why did you bring a shirt and a suit? Do you think something will happen to the company?”

“Yes. If something urgent happens, I will leave right away.”

“Didn’t you have a suitcase? It’s all crumpled Let’s take this to the laundromat.”

“Then what if something happens? Just let it be.”

“Nope. The laundry is done on the same day, so you can go now. I’ll be back soon. I’m waiting for you here.”

“If you will, go with me.”

The doctor, whose face lit up at the answer he wanted to hear, shook his head.
Then Jihyeok kicks and bursts into laughter.

“Why are you laughing?”

“No, I just… I like you.”

The doctor couldn’t hide the smile that leaked out.
It’s been a long time since I lived like this.
A self who feels good with a trivial expression of affection, a lover who wants to take care of anything.
It’s like having a fresh romance.
It felt like I was rejuvenating both physically and mentally.

The doctor, who was slowly riding on the swing while being hugged by Jihyeok, said.

“Oh, Jihyuk.”

“Why?”

“Have you seen the navy blue T-shirt? I thought I put it in the washing machine, but it wasn’t there.”

“That T-shirt? I didn’t see it… Did you lose it?”

“I guess so. He must have been at home…”

“Shall we look for it together?”

The doctor, who was about to nod his head, somehow felt that Ji-hyeok was testing him.
Jihyeok hated that T-shirt.
It was clear when he recalled the last time he took a T-shirt from himself and threw it away casually.

It was a valuable item.
However, now that I want to deepen my relationship with Jihyeok, I thought Jihyeok would be disappointed if I said ‘Let’s look for it now’ or showed an obsession with T-shirts.
Yeah, it’s strange that she’s been grabbing and dragging her husband’s things all this time.
It’s not the only belongings of her husband… Let’s look for Ji-hyeok when he goes out for work.

The doctor, who had been thinking a lot, opened his mouth.

“No, it’s okay. It must be somewhere.”

In response, Jihyeok gave a satisfied smile.
Seeing Jihyeok’s expression, the doctor thought he had given the correct answer.
I felt a little sorry for his husband, but it quickly disappeared.

‘It’s not like I threw it away… It’ll be fine.’

The doctor who justified himself felt ecstatic when Jihyeok hugged him.
You did well to answer like that. It seems that his love cells have not died yet.
Thinking that, the doctor whimpered from Jihyeok’s chest and lifted his head.
Then he asked.

“Did you eat?”

“I didn’t eat. Hungry.”

“I will prepare it soon. Wait a minute.”

“No. I’m going to eat out while I go to the laundry.”

“Is that so? What do you want to eat?”

“Um… There’s a Gambas store nearby, shall we go there?”

“I like anywhere.”

“But since I’m like this, I don’t want to move. Will it stay like this for a little while?”

The doctor shook her head shyly.
It was what she wanted to say.
Not just a little bit, but for a long time… No, I want to stick around every day.

‘I should ask to go to the lab…’

I should… I can’t.
The doctor put strength on the arm wrapped around Jihyeok’s back.
All I can think about right now is that I’m happy.
It seems that he is completely immersed in the swamp where this man is.

I thought Edward was my first and last love, but I was wrong.
It would have been nice if I had met Jihyeok when I was young…
It would have been great if…
This thought passed through the doctor’s mind for a very short time and then disappeared.
