Chapter 231 – Is It Correct to Say That It’s a Hole Co-Existence, or Rather, a Rod Co-Existence?
“Then you’ll know when you see this.”
Her mother grinned and picked up her cell phone on the table in her living room. She manipulated it for a moment and showed me a picture of a trash can on the screen.
“Hey, why is this… ?”
“Look closely. On the day of the college entrance exam, when I cleaned Sehee’s room, I found this.”
“Yes? … Uh!”
It wasn’t just a picture of a trash can. It was nothing more than a picture of a trash can containing used condoms.
“Isn’t that strange?”
Unlike me, the blood on her face had gone, my mother asked with a cold glint between her eyes.
“Clearly, the only man who came here on the eve of the CSAT was Jiheon. Isn’t that right, Mr. Jiheon?”
“Uh, uh, that, that… !”
When her eyes met hers, her body began to tremble as if it were cold.
“Heh”
“!”
Seeing me like this, my mother smiled like she was cute and put her phone back on the table.
“Of course, I knew what Se-hee thought of Ji-heon, but I didn’t know that we had a relationship like this.”
“Actually, I-“
“That’s Okay. You don’t have to tell superficial lies to get out of this situation. I just wanted to ask you this one thing.”
“What, what is it… ?”
“Mr. Jiheon. Jiheon Kang.”
My mother called my name again and looked at me with a serious face. Her eyes, colder than ice, resembled that of an angry demon king, and her sharp aura resembled Sehee when she was angry with me.
Seeing this, I ran away from reality thinking that it was my mother after all.
But in reality, it was her mother right in front of her who opened her mouth.
“Sohee, is it true that you love me?”
“Yes yes?”
“Do you love Sohee?”
“Ah…”
Her trembling heart made her answer a little hesitant. Still, she firmly resolved and nodded her head.
“Yes, I love you. Sohee.”
“Then why are you cheating on me?”
“!”
It was so straight forward that I was speechless again.
“I love So-hee, but he is having an affair, and that with Se-hee, her younger sister. In this case, is it correct to say that it is a hole-dwelling, no, a rod-dwelling?”
My mother attacked me nonstop. I broke out in a cold sweat every time sharp words broke my heart, but I thought this was an opportunity.
Until now, I have not been able to openly reveal my relationship with the demon king, Se-hee, and Min-ah. It was obvious that other people would criticize me, just as my mother condemned me now.
If I can’t get through this properly, I won’t have the confidence to meet them.
Taking a deep breath, I made up my mind and opened my mouth.
“Here, mother.”
“What is it, Mr. Jiheon, who ate both of his daughters whom he cherished more than me?”
It must have been that these sisters were perverts that resembled their mothers. No, that’s not what’s important right now.
“Actually, your mother is slightly misunderstanding something.”
“Are you misunderstanding? Was it my misunderstanding that her sister’s boyfriend had sex with her brother?”
“No. That is sure proof that I made love with Se-hee.”
“…”
This time the mother lost her speech. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I poured out what I wanted to say.
“Actually, So-hee knows that I’m also dating Se-hee. Not only that, but he’s also seeing other women.”
“By any chance, is that woman Minah?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Hmm, I was right.”
Despite the fact that she was seeing another person, her mother was no longer angry and quietly listened to her story. In addition, she even sent cheering eyes.
“Keep talking.”
I was more scared now than when I was shot with words. I confirmed with frightened eyes.
“Gee, really? Are you okay?”
“Yes I’m okay. Go on.”
I was afraid to even gesture for real, but I still have to say it.
“Yes, yes, then I will. Me, Sohee, Sehee, Minah, and noona? No, I’m dating Mina. I agreed with all three of them. I am sincere with all three of them.”
“Is it so?”
Still, my mother wasn’t angry. She asked as if she had something to be curious about.
“Again, what do you have?”
“Again, again?”
“Yes. I think there might be something else.”
“Uh, that…”
Rolling her eyes this way and that, she wondered what answer her mother wanted. Still, everything that came out of my mouth was sincere.
“I, that, I’m going to get married with all three of them.”
“And what?”
“Besides, that…”
“How many children did you think you would have?”
“Yes? So far…”
“Okay, then.”
Shaking her head from side to side, the mother asked me with her calm face.
“Mr. Jiheon. Did I mention that I saw this last month, on the day of the college entrance exam?”
“Yes yes. It was.”
“But why did I ask this now? A month has passed?”
She was right. If it had been me, the very day I found it, I would have called her daughters and her boyfriend together to discuss what it was.
But my mother didn’t. Rather, she said, she called all of us together for a drink, and even when she stayed out, she said she knew without saying anything, she heard.
Maybe, my mother… ?
When she started to have absurd thoughts, she said her mother herself was right.
“I don’t really care if Jiheon sees three women at once.”
“Yes?”
“I told you. Even if Mr. Jiheon meets several people, she doesn’t care.”
Surely this is exactly what I was thinking. But hearing it with my own ears, I couldn’t understand it at all.
Even so, her mother did not stop talking to her.
“Then what do I care about, Mr. Jiheon?”
“Sir, do you care?”
“Yes, I care.”
“Uh, that…”
For a different reason than before, my mind went blank. He already knew that I was dating other women, and he tolerated it until now. But what do you care about there?
When I didn’t answer, my mother told me instead.
“All I care about is the happiness of my daughters.”
“Ah.”
She was right. The reason I was so embarrassed was because she was the mother of Demon King and Sehee.
Her mother, who gave her reasons directly, did not stop her.
“I am the mother of Sohee and Sehee. So I don’t really want to get involved in a relationship as long as I like the two of them.”
“Even though you’re going to meet me?”
“Oh, didn’t you say we agreed?”
“I did, I did.”
“Then it doesn’t really matter, does it? You said it earlier. As a mother, she doesn’t want to get involved in her daughters’ romantic relationships. Besides, even if I stop you, will you still meet Jiheon?”
As if it was true, he shrugged her shoulders with a nonchalant face. I felt at least a little relieved by that appearance and asked why they had called me here.
“Yeah, but. Why did you come here… ?”
“I’ve been acquiescing for so long, so why did you call me now?”
“Yes.”
“Mmm”
My mother moaned long before she called me.
“Jiheon.”
“Yes yes?”
“Did you go on a date with Sehee this week?”
“Ah, uh, that… “
“What is it. Don’t you remember dating when you said you were serious?”
“Oh no! That’s, actually, a date… Because it’s not.”
It was the day I got rid of the man who was seduced by Se-hee. Besides, it wasn’t a good atmosphere like a date, so I reacted late to the word date.
Still, my mother never stopped asking me if I had met Se-hee or not.
“Then did we meet? With Sehee?”
“Yes, we met.”
“That day, the day Sehee came back, you know.”
“Yes.”
“That night. Sehee cried.”
“Yes?”
“I cried, Se-hee.”
Her heart broke when she heard that she had cried again. At the same time, she also felt regret that it would have been better for her to hit that bastard, Seungbin or Seungchan.
While I was regretting it, my mother let out a long sigh and crossed her arms alone. Then she spoke again in a low voice.
“That’s why I called Jiheon today. If you can’t make Sehee happy, please don’t meet me. Of course, this includes Sohee.”
“…”
I couldn’t think of anything but one word. However, I really wanted to say these words that come to mind now.
Without saying a word, I got up from the sofa and sat down on my knees on the floor.
“Oh, Mr. Jiheon!”
She immediately bowed her head and apologized to her surprised mother.
“I’m sorry, mother. Se-hee was depressed that day for other reasons, but it was my fault for not calming her properly.”
“Yes?”
“I will never do anything like this in the future. I will never shed tears in the eyes of not only Se-hee, but also So-hee and another woman, Min-ah.”
“No, it’s okay. Wake up.”
My mother doesn’t know what I mean, and she gets up from the sofa, at a loss. She thought that such a mother was cute without thinking, but she continued her words with a serious face.
“No. If Mother says yes, I will get up.”
“All right. Then please wake up now. I didn’t call Jiheon for this.”
“All right.”
I immediately got up and stood facing her mother. As it was, her serious face did not change at all.
“Mother, I’m sorry to come here, but…”
Instead of slurring her words slightly, she politely bowed her head.
“So-hee, please allow me to date Se-hee.”
“Yes? Just the two of you?”
“Then I’ll include Minah.”
“Um, okay. Great.”
I raised my head when I heard a voice that gave permission in a soft tone. Standing in front of my eyes was my mother, who had a kind expression as usual, but with a slightly reddened face.
“Are you sure you can make everyone happy?”
“I don’t have confidence, but I will try.”
“You don’t feel at all safe with those words?”
“How can I reassure you? I’ll show you right away.”
“Then,”
My mother took a step away from me, and she said with a slightly mischievous face like a devil.
“Please slow down. Please don’t make my daughters cry, and make Minah happy too.”
I have only one thing to say here.
“Yes!”
“But, hey, Mister. Are you really okay? Can I meet you both?”
“Is it okay? You two are good, but how can I stop you? Is this just like me?”
“Is that so?”
“Ah, but Mr. Jiheon. I’m fine with this, but you can’t tell the kids’ father. You know?”
“No, no?”
“If he finds out, Mr. Jiheon will die. No, it might be better to die.”
“Yes yes! I will never tell you!”
“And, do you know this, Mr. Jiheon?”
“Yes? What?”
“It was the same as when Mr. Jiheon was kneeling earlier, when the baby’s father asked for me from my parents’ house.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“That’s why this lady isn’t even worth her age and she’s a little bit scared. What is it?”
“… Yes?”
“You said you were going to sleep tonight? When the kids are sleeping later, can you stop by the bedroom for a bit♥”
“I’m not going!”
“Ho-ho-ho! I wanted to know why they went crazy, but it’s a pity!”
