Chapter 1034 – Side Story – Reunion (1)

For Han Min-ah, separation was always sudden.

When she was young, she was still only a high school student. Just as her parents left her home, leaving only her and her two younger siblings.

At first she thought that they had both gone far away for work. Han Min-ah’s family, who were always unable to leave their small semi-basement villa, were desperate to earn a living each day, so it was not strange for them to go on business trips to distant places when they had work to do.

However, a week has passed since the day my parents left, and a month has passed.

Then, at some point, about a year had passed. Minah Han decided not to think about the existence of her parents.

It’s still not a good situation. She thought that in the end, she would be tired of taking responsibility for three more family members who were not working and were just eating.

Five years had passed since the day her parents suddenly disappeared, and the two were officially declared dead, but Minah Han still harbored the thought in her heart that her parents had abandoned them.

“Hello?”

“Hello. Are you by any chance Han Min-ah?”

“… That’s right, but who are you?”

“Ah, yes. This is Yoo Hae-young, head of the Dungeon Management Team at Busan City Hall. By any chance, Ms. Han Min, is her mother’s name actually Joo-hee Han?”

“… Yes, that’s right.”

… She had to believe that her parents, who disappeared from the semi-basement villa one day and abandoned her and her younger siblings because they could not handle them, could think that they were still alive somewhere, somewhere unknown to her.

“Tomorrow?”

“… Yes, tomorrow.”

Han Min-a suggests going out to me with an expression that looks like she has a lot to say.

Since I was always the one to bring up such topics in my relationship with Minah, I was happy about this proactive suggestion, but I couldn’t react positively due to the slightly serious mood on her face.

Maybe it’s an outing with something more important than just a date.

The first thing that came to mind was that Mina had finally decided that she wanted to have a child with me, but instead of saying it out loud, she quietly nodded.

“Okay, then. I’ll leave some time tomorrow. Even the morning after tomorrow.”

“… Really? “Is it okay to just take a break like this?”

“Isn’t the advantage of being a guild representative that you don’t have to face disciplinary action even if you are absent from work without permission? And Min, you asked me to go somewhere with you, but of course this is more important than going to work.”

“… “Don’t you ask me where I’m going?”

“Minah, it doesn’t matter where you want to go. Oh, if we’re going somewhere far away, should I ask Eunbyeol to drive?”

“… That’s okay. If possible, I want to go there just with you.”

Since you don’t deny whether you’re going somewhere far away, I guess it’s not near Seoul.

As she was organizing the things she would pack when she went out tomorrow, thinking that it might be a bit of a long outing, another unexpected suggestion came from her mouth.

“And…”

“Huh?”

“Tonight… “Can I sleep in your room?”

“Tonight?”

“… You said it last time. “If you want to sleep together, you can come up in a certain order with your younger siblings.”

That’s what I said. In reality, Jina and Suna almost took turns coming up to my bedroom and sleeping with me.

In the case of Jin-ah, who was thirsty for affection, she most enjoyed sleeping with me hugging her tightly, and in the case of Seon-ah, who was hungry for sex, most of the things led to sex.

And their older sister, Minah… Since I brought up that suggestion, there have been almost no posts.

Except for the regular days when I was in heat once a month, we almost never slept together… In many ways, it was refreshing that she, who still had about a week left until her estrus season, brought up this suggestion first.

“Of course it doesn’t matter. It’s probably Suna’s turn today, so I’ll tell you later. “It’s been a while since I told my eldest sister to give in to my older brother.”

“… Well, it’s okay because I told Suna earlier before you left work.”

“Okay? That’s it then. What else?”

“… There’s nothing else. Just remember, I have to leave early tomorrow morning. “I will wake you up.”

“Okay.”

It wasn’t Han Min-ah’s estrus cycle that she usually memorized, but seeing her reaction, she was already sure of it in her head.

Nowadays, she needs other people’s affection more than anyone else.

-Kkiik.

“Now, are you sleeping… ?”

“I’m not sleeping yet.”

“Okay…”

Bedtime. Han Min-a changes into her pajamas and sneaks into my room.

I found it cute to see her coming into her room with a hesitant expression, as if she had committed some crime.

No matter how close the physical relationship has become, her mental shame still remains.

“…”

“Don’t hesitate there, just get on the bed.”

“… “Have you ever hesitated?”

“Yeah, anyway. He said he had to leave early tomorrow morning. Come in quickly and go to sleep.”

“… Yes.”

Hanmin nods her head once and walks towards me, as if she doesn’t have any intention of retorting.

Her light and agile body slipped into the blanket on the bed like a cat.

“Where are you going tomorrow?”

“… Busan.”

“Why? Do you want to see the sea?”

“… I also want to see the sea, but I’m not specifically going to see the sea. Just… “I need to go and check on some things.”

“Something I need to check?”

“… It’s just that there is something like that.”

If you intentionally try to hide something even though you asked a question, it probably means that you don’t want to talk about it right now.

She hugged Minah without saying a word, thinking that she wouldn’t bother asking until one day she felt like telling something.

-Kkook.

“… Hey, Seong Tae-kyung…”

“Why?”

“Oh, I’m sorry I misunderstood you, but I-I just came here to sleep. I didn’t come here to do anything with you…”

“I know.”

“… Do you know?”

“I just cuddled up to sleep. “Jina and I usually sleep like this a lot.”

“… Really?”

“Didn’t you come up to the bedroom in the first place because you wanted to be with me like this? Even though they are sisters, she is a little embarrassed to sleep alone with Jin or Seon-ah.”

“Oh, no, that’s…”

“No?”

“… That’s right.”

Han Min-ah realizes that it would feel strange to deny it now, so she says yes in a quiet voice.

As soon as I felt her face pressing into my chest, Han Min-ah and I fell asleep, feeling each other’s warmth.

And, the next morning.

“If you take Gate 3 from here, you are at Busan Gate Terminal. “If you get confused and add something strange, your money will be doubled, so be careful.”

“Would you be confused that I’m not a child?”

“Let’s go out to Busan Gate Terminal and catch a taxi. “If you take the bus, you have to transfer three times, so it’s better to take a taxi.”

“Do whatever you want. “Because only you know where you’re going anyway.”

Han Mina and me, who took the gate to Seoul Gate Terminal early in the morning, were already moving to find the gate to Busan.

Only Han Min-ah still knows detailed information about exactly where they are going.

She thought about taking a swimsuit, in case she wanted to go swimming, but she didn’t say anything about it, so she decided against it. If she was really planning on going into the sea, she would have told Hanmin to get a swimsuit from the beginning.

Still, it seems that sleeping while hugging him tightly last night helped to some extent, and he looked a lot better than the look on his face the night before.

“Now let’s go out and catch a taxi?”

“Huh. “I’ll take care of it, so you just follow.”

“Okay.”

To be honest, I was still curious. Where on earth is Han Min-ah planning to take me while keeping it a secret?

Are you doing this to surprise me, or are you doing this because you don’t feel like talking yet?

It was Han Min-ah who followed her through the gate and entered her taxi, entering her destination directly into the navigation system from the seat in front of her, trying hard to hold back the doubts welling up to her chin.

“Geumjeong Seogwan-ro, Geumjeong-gu… Ah, yes. Please go there.”

Now, there is no point in checking the destination by looking at the navigation screen.

It must have been about 30 minutes since I just stared out the window blankly, taking in the passing scenery with my eyes. By chance, an information sign caught my eye, and from that sign, I was able to carefully guess why Han Min-ah had brought me here.

「Yeongnak Park 500 m」

“…”

The taxi quietly stops a few minutes later when the sign is seen.

At first, she followed Minah Han, who was sitting in front of her, out without saying a word other than when she was operating the navigation, and as soon as she got off, she was sure that she had arrived at the place she had seen on the sign just a moment ago.

「Yeongnak Park」

“… Let’s go in.”

“… Yes.”

It was a moment when I became half-sure why Minah seemed to be in a bad mood since the evening before.
