Chapter 38 – The Boss’ Daughter

On Sunday, after a late lunch my mother had prepared for me, I went to Younghee’s sister.
Now, it seemed like it was a normal routine to go on a date with Kyungmi on Saturdays and with Yeonghee on Sundays.
“Do you have a younger sister, Younghee? I’m here.”
When I called out in front of the house, Young-rae opened the door.
“Sungjin, come on. My sister is very sick right now.”
“Why? Where are you sick?”
I was startled and went into the room, and Young-hee, with a dying face, was struggling to raise her upper body.
“Don’t get up, sister. Lie down.”
“I came home from work yesterday and suddenly passed out. I have a fever, and I am sweating, but I haven’t eaten anything so far.”
Youngrae said with a worried expression.
My sister closed her eyes tightly and was struggling to breathe.
“Did you take your medicine?”
“Huh. I made some medicine for you and fed you.”
I touched my sister’s forehead, wiped the sweat from her cheek with my hand, and got up from her seat.
“Youngrae, where is the rice?”
“Here. Why rice?”
“Huh. My sister, give me some porridge..”
I immediately washed the rice and soaked it in water.
While the rice soaked in water, I held my sister’s hand tightly next to me.
But suddenly, tears flowed from my sister’s closed eyes.
“Can you hear me, sister? What’s not good?”
I asked my sister a question while wiping away her tears.
My sister was just shedding her tears without any answer.
The rice drained off some of the water, transferred it to an iron spoon, and crushed it as if grinding it by hand.
Pour water into a pot, add mashed rice, and stir with a spoon over medium heat until porridge forms.
I made rice porridge and took it to my sister with soy sauce.
“Let’s eat some porridge, sister. You have to eat and take medicine. If you take medicine on an empty stomach, you lose your stomach. Hurry..”
I scooped up the porridge with a spoon and blew it into my sister’s mouth, but she turned her head away and refused to eat.
“Oh hey, sister. Come on? Even if you have no appetite, you will get better soon if you eat.”
I didn’t want to do it, so I forced my sister up and I went behind her on her back, laid her between my crotch, and leaned against her chest, holding her with one arm.
Then my sister suddenly turned her body around and buried her face in my chest and began to cry as she hugged me.
For some reason, my sister’s condition was strange.
So I asked Young-rae to step aside so I could talk to my sister.
Yeong-rae, who was looking at her sister with a worried expression, looked at me for a moment, then sighed at her, put on her shoes and went outside.
My sister stopped crying for a moment, but her arms that were embracing me didn’t loosen.
He undid her sister’s arms and pulled them off her breasts and looked into her sister’s face.
With a pale face full of tears, he couldn’t meet my eyes and just avoided them.
“What? Sister. What’s the matter? What’s going on?”
My sister pursed her lips as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn’t speak and turned her head away.
“What’s going on? You know what to say to her.”
“Sobbing. Seongjin-ah..Don’t throw me away..”
I was dumbfounded for a moment to see Younghee noona suddenly break down and cry.
A sick person who seemed like he was going to die immediately wailed loudly, saying not to throw it away, so even I was at a loss as to what to do.
“Uh… Uh… It’s okay. Are you okay. Why did I abandon my sister?”
She patted her sister on the back, wiped her tears, held her back, and patted her on the back again and again.
My older sister, who had been crying in her arms for a while, was holding her forehead against her chest and wriggling while holding onto my clothes.
“Look at me. What? Why the hell are you doing this? What happened at the bank?”
For a moment, I was worried that my sister might have been hurt by a man outside.
My sister kept her mouth shut and shook her head from side to side.
“Then what the hell is going on?”
“Sobbing. Seongjin-ah.. I love you.. Don’t abandon me..”
“Know. But why am I abandoning my sister? Why are you like this all of a sudden?”
“Sobbing. Yesterday… I saw you… Walking hand in hand with a girl…”
I was stinging inside.
‘Huh.. When did I see that again?’

Today is Saturday…
Cho Young-hee, following her arduous window work, finished her settlement.
She looked at her watch and it was a little less than 4 o’clock.
Fortunately, the amount was right today, so I thought I could finish it a little earlier.
Last Sunday, she remembered the kind, manly Sungjin he showed on their date at Namsan all week, laughing as if a screw had fallen off.
Her older sisters at the bank asked if there was any good, but Seong-jin just shook her head and smiled because it was her own beautiful secret.
Her heart pounded at the thought that tomorrow she would see Seong-jin.
She went to work at the bank changing her clothes.
Thinking that tomorrow, instead of going out on a date, she should have a hot time with Seong-jin at her house, she blushed involuntarily.
When Seong-jin comes, she wants to cook something delicious, so on her way home, she stops by the market.
She had a lot of groceries in her hands and came out to the main road, and saw my love, Sung-jin, standing at the bus stop across the road.
I was so happy that I tried to call out.
By the way, Sungjin was holding the hand of a girl standing next to her.
Then she was showing the woman her soft smile.
That smile, the lovely smile he had shown himself at Namsan last week.
Looking at the woman next to her, she was tall and her figure was no joke.
Her face was so pretty and her clothes were lovingly dressed like her princess.
In particular, the moment she saw the girl’s eyes looking at Sungjin, her heart sank.
It was Younghee who knew Seongjin’s very lovable gaze better than anyone else.
Because? It was because it was the same gaze he usually showed to Seongjin.
I naturally compared myself to a girl.
The woman’s height was about 170 cm, and Seong-jin reached her ears, and her breasts, rising convexly over her pretty pink tee, were worthy of admiration even by the female Yeong-hee.
Her waist was well tucked in, and because her waist looked so thin, her buttocks were convex and seemed to stick out.
Her legs under the tight blue skirt that showed off her figure were straight and straight, as if she had never tipped over in her life, and her ankles were so thin that even her sagging calves looked thick.
And, most of all, the highlight was that face, the thick eyebrows that looked like they were drawn, the sharp nose, the red lips like cherry, and the plump, baby-like white cheeks.
Her height, her body, her face, no matter how much she compared her, she felt that she was inferior to that girl.
Suddenly, her limbs gave out strength and her body trembled like an aspen tree.
The two of them were walking hand in hand.
The woman was talking nonstop while staring at Seongjin’s face about what she liked so much.
The sight of the two moving away made it seem as if Seongjin was leaving him.
Tears flowed endlessly from her eyes.
I don’t know how she got home.
She stood and cried and walked, then stood and cried and walked again.
As soon as I got home, I collapsed right there.
She was very hot and her whole body was shaking.
She couldn’t eat anything.
Her sister tried to give her some water, but she vomited while drinking.
It seemed her brother hadn’t eaten dinner, but she couldn’t do anything.
After she lay down for a while, she calmed down somewhat.
Then, she missed Seong-jin, whom she loved so much.
Tears came out without stopping.
All she could think of was what she would do if Seong-jin left her.
I don’t know how many times she’s been so tired of crying.
She wanted to run right away if Seong-jin knew her house, but since she didn’t know the house, she couldn’t even do that.
Why didn’t Seong-jin know her home? Also, why does her mother-in-law not even know her friend’s house?
Her remorse for herself, her resentment for her brother arose.
Ah, she only felt despair that she was becoming like this in the end.
She had a hard night and her brother came to make medicine.
She was a drug and everything bothered me.
But finally, she thought she should see Seong-jin.
She woke up thinking that if she died like this, she would no longer be able to see Seong-jin.
She forced herself to take her medicine and tried to cheer her up.
But her body didn’t follow her mind, so she had no choice but to lie down under her blanket.
But my lover has come.
My Sungjin, whom I love so much, came to see me.
She looked at me and then she stroked her cheek with her warm hand and held my hand in hers.
She tried to feed me by making porridge for me.
Tears flowed again.
I was angry, but it was fleeting, fleeting, fleeting.
How dare I take her anger out on Sungjin?
When my dear beloved made porridge for me and nursed her, I was moved by her.
In the end, I clung to his arms.
I had no choice but to cling to him not to abandon me.

“Ego, sister saw it. Sorry. I wasn’t trying to cheat…”
I sighed and admitted it meekly.
Rather, it seemed that deceiving and denying was worse.
“Okay, sister. Now that it’s like this, I’ll tell you. Her name is Kim Kyung-mi. They found out about it because of her father, and we ate together a few times. We became close after that, and like my older sister, she likes me a lot.”
After talking this far, I quietly looked down at my sister.
My sister was also quietly looking at me, curious about what I would say next.
However, when Kyeong-mi said she liked me, I could see an earthquake in both of her pupils.
“Eh. Okay. Sister, I’m a bad guy.”
After not saying anything to my sister for a while, I sighed and opened my mouth.
“It’s funny when I say this to my older sister, but they say there’s no one who refuses ten women, right? To be honest, my sister does too, but wouldn’t it be more strange if my heart goes out to someone who loves me? I’m not some sort of adult gentleman.. He reached out his hand saying he liked me first and approached me, but I couldn’t ruthlessly ignore him and pretend I didn’t see him. I don’t know what to do with that one, but I love my older sister more when it comes to loving.”
When she said that she loved her more, Yeong-hee’s lips curled slightly.
I paused for a moment to organize my thoughts on what to say.
“Sister, again, I am only 17 years old. It’s a time to make girlfriends, start dating, and then break up. It’s not the time to pick and choose one person and get married. Where is the person you risk your life to meet at this time? My sister is really weird. What the hell are you looking at and risking your life for? Does that make sense?”
“Why don’t you make sense? It’s because Sungjin doesn’t know how cool you are. That’s why Kyungmi is also clinging to you…”
“What nonsense… How does my sister know that Kyungmi is clinging to me?”
“I know. Yesterday, the moment I saw her eyes looking at you, I knew right away that a girl named Kyung-mi loves you as much as I do. It’s natural, but…”
“Ah! Driving me crazy. Noona, I’m 17. I’m still young. No, why the hell would my sister, who lives a social life, be like this?”
“Know. I know, but who would look at you and see you as 17? And I never once thought of you as young. When we are together, I feel like a child, and you feel like an adult like an older brother or a father..”
“Ha! Well… Since my sister is like a child, she got a love affair like this and couldn’t even eat.
I fed chestnuts to my sister’s forehead.
“Who is the boss? No it’s not..”
My sister puffed out her cheeks in displeasure and rubbed her forehead with her hand.
“No, what isn’t it? Aren’t you doing this because you’re worried that I’ll meet another girl and leave you? Seeing this, they call it a boss disease. Oops.”
“Chit..”
I wanted to make an excuse that it wasn’t my sister, but she couldn’t say anything to my words, which was so right, she just puffed out her cheeks and turned her head away.
