Chapter 355 – I Have No Intention of Getting Married
On the way to my destination, I heard Taeyeon answering the phone.
“Yes, Mom. Why?”
It must have been Grandma’s phone call. Even as she looked out of her window, pretending not to be interested, she focused on the sound of a phone call behind her.
“Am I out now? I’m with Jena, of course. Uh. Uh. Let’s go play with Jiheon for a while, no, what’s wrong?”
-… !
It seemed that her grandmother was screaming something. She could hear his voice vaguely here as well, but she couldn’t quite hear it.
“Why not? I’ll just stay with you. No, no. It’s not like that. Really not? His friend is with him now. Female. Oh, it’s a girl Why do you say that, really? All right, hang up!”
Taeyeon, who nervously hung up on her, grumbled a little, wondering if her anger was not resolved.
“Never mind, really.”
“Why? What’s going on?”
“No, it’s nothing. Don’t mind.”
She said so and she said nothing.
Ugh!
With her mouth.
My smartphone, which I had put in the passenger’s glove box, vibrated. When I picked it up and checked it, I could see a text message from Taeyeon.
Taeyeon: Because mom said she was with you
Taeyeon: Why did you take Yena with you?
Taeyeon: That’s fucking
Taeyeon: And since she says there is also Minah
Taeyeon: Even if it wasn’t, to Bully
Taeyeon: Or why did she take her?
Taeyeon: That’s why I took the child to the hospital for a long time
Taeyeon: She said he would take care of her.
Taeyeon: no
Taeyeon: Watching a child at the hospital
Taeyeon: Do you think that makes sense?
Text messages from Taeyeon kept arriving. The sound of her fingernails could be heard from behind her as she was nervously typing.
“Mom. What’s the matter?”
There was no way that Jena, who was the closest physically and physically closest to him, would not have known about this. She didn’t have a child seat, so she fidgeted with a seat belt that she had secured instead, her eyes widening with anxiety.
“Mom. Are you mad? Huh?”
“Oh, no. Why is your mother angry?”
In response, Taeyeon forced a smile and said.
“Mom, you’re not even angry right now, are you? Mommy is so excited right now. You’re going out to play with our Yena. Isn’t that right, Yena?”
At this time, Minah, who was driving, diverted Yena’s attention.
“Yena. Do you know where we are going now?”
“Yes yes?”
“I’m going to the kids cafe. I’ve heard that Yena likes kids cafes.”
After Jena got caught, we changed our destination from the cafe to the Kids Cafe. This was pointed out by Yena from her backseat.
“Your mother told you earlier.”
“Yes that’s right. So, doesn’t Yena like kids cafes?”
“I like you!”
“Which do you like best?”
“I love the zip line! I like the room too!”
She was also the eldest sister of the nursery school. Minah skillfully managed to divert her attention from her taciturnity to herself.
By the way, a zip line is a zip line. Isn’t it so cute This is why men become daughter fools. But what is a room?
Taeyeon: yeah
Taeyeon: Don’t you think it’s too much?
Even while Mina was talking to Yena, Taeyeon kept texting her.
Taeyeon: But
Taeyeon: Are you not replying?
Taeyeon: Do you want to die?
I tried to reply, but I didn’t have time to text him without stopping. Coincidentally, while she asked, I texted right away.
Me: but yes
Taeyeon: what
Taeyeon: why
Taeyeon: why
Me: no
Me: Are you thinking of getting married?
“Hey.”
Suddenly, I heard Taeyeon’s low voice right behind me. She turned her head, saw her ferocious face, and immediately told me why I had asked.
Me: no
Me: you don’t want to get married
Taeyeon: It’s like this even though I said it
Taeyeon: I have no intention of getting married
Me: I said
Taeyeon: It’s not like I said it once or twice
Me: I already told you
Taeyeon: You say it every time you bring up the topic of marriage?
Taeyeon: Even if it’s a daughter
Taeyeon: Isn’t that too much?
She kept thinking she was texting too much. It was almost as if he was talking to the AI rather than to me.
Oh please Minah. Please go quickly
Even on the way, Taeyeon didn’t stop texting her. To the constant complaints she kept pouring out, she sent a reply saying, “That’s right, that’s what my mother did.”
When he said more than 5 times that Jena was enough, we arrived at our destination.
“Im here.”
The place they arrived at was none other than the apartment where Minah lived. I came here because there was a kids cafe attached to the apartment.
As they entered the underground parking lot of the apartment, Mina looked in the rearview mirror at the mother and daughter behind her. She asked, looking at her mother.
“Taeyeon, what are you going to do? Would you like to go to the Kids Cafe right away?”
“Oh, is that so? Yes.”
Finally she stopped texting her and asked her daughter.
“Yena. Do you want to go to the Kids Cafe right away?”
“Huh!”
I wonder if it’s that good, Yena smiled brightly and nodded her head.
“All right.”
Mina, who saw that smile like me, put on a slightly pleased expression. Then she turned the car to a different parking spot than she usually went to.
“Then let’s go to the Kids Cafe first.”
“Wow!”
Hearing that, Yena even clapped and liked it. We headed to the kids cafe while looking at the cute figure.
As if getting closer, pink paintings began to appear in the gray and white parking lot. When I headed towards the place indicated by flowers, trees, and unknown animal characters, I saw a kids cafe sign.
Minah stopped right under the sign and said.
“You can get off now.”
The stop was right in front of the doorway. She saw that it was not a parking space and asked her.
“Uh, what is it? You?”
“I will park and go. Please wait in front for a moment.”
“Okay. Are you guys okay too?”
“Yes!”
Taeyeon, who looked lovingly at her daughter, who answered her vigorously, asked Mina.
“How long will it be?”
“I’ll just park and go right away.”
“Okay. Then see you later.”
“Yes, I understand.”
After the eldest person gave permission, I immediately opened the door and got out of the car. While watching Yena getting off with Taeyeon, she asked Mina through the door that hadn’t been closed yet.
“Then can I stand at the entrance?”
“Yes. Please wait for me to come.”
“Why? Can’t we go in?”
“It is not. We will tell you later.”
The scariest thing was when the word “Later” Came out to a woman. Still, since I wasn’t the main character today, I was able to nod my head lightly.
“Okay. Then see you later.”
“Yes.”
I finished the conversation and closed the car door. Then the car Mina was driving slid into an empty parking lot.
While Mina parked, Yena, standing in front of the entrance, her eyes twinkled. She surveyed her kids’ cafe with her eyes brighter than when she had met her baby and mother.
“Mom. Mom mom!”
She jumped in her place as if Jena was excited and couldn’t control her excitement.
“Can’t we go in now? Huh? Let’s go in now. Let’s hurry. Let’s go now.”
Of course, Taeyeon stopped it.
“No, Yena. I have to wait until Mina unnie comes.”
“Hey, wait.”
A remark came out that I couldn’t stand.
“Why am I an uncle and why is Minah an older sister? Why?”
“What. Oh, talk to you later.”
But Taeyeon was busy soothing her excited child.
In the meantime, Minah, who had finally finished parking, came over.
“Did you wait long?”
“Yes! Yes yes yes yes yes!”
Jena was well qualified to answer that.
“All right.”
Seeing the child respond cutely, Mina pointed to the doorway.
“I will go in now.”
Having said that, Minah passed us and entered the doorway. She opened the glass door, which gave a clear view of the bright interior, and held us through.
“Come in.”
“Yes!”
Excited, Yena answered lively and went in, followed by Taeyeon and me.
Mina waited for us all to come in, and when she did, she left the door open and took the lead. We quietly followed him until we arrived at the counter.
A young woman about my age spotted us and gave us a businesslike smile.
“Welcome, this is Kids Land of dreams and fantasies!”
“Hello.”
Perhaps because it was in front of Yena, Mina said without acting.
“Three adults and one child.”
“All right. How old will the child be?”
“Seven years old!”
Jenna shouted from under the counter. That too, with her fern-like hand wide open, with her index and middle fingers pinched with her other hand.
Aw, so cute, really.
“Are you seven years old, my child?”
The female employee who saw it smiled genuinely and then told Mina the amount of her money.
“Our Kids Land costs 50,000 won for 2 hours for children and 20,000 won for adults.”
“!”
Upon hearing the amount, Taeyeon frowned. It was the same for me, but Mina casually took out her wallet.
“Then I will pay for two hours.”
“What?”
When Taeyeon called, she held out her card to her clerk.
“Yes, payment is by card, 3 adults and 1 child. I will pay 110,000 won. Are you a resident? In that case, there is a 10% discount.”
“Yes that’s right.”
“Then could you show me the documents to prove it?”
“Wait a moment.”
After saying that, Mina took out the access card used to enter the apartment building.
“Yes, I checked. There is a 10% discount, and I will pay 99,000 won. Should I pay in installments?”
“Just pay in lump sum.”
While the employee was paying, Taeyeon approached Mina and whispered.
“Hey! Why are you paying for that?!”
“I will do it.”
“Then why are you doing it!”
Even while the two were fighting, the employee did not stop paying.
“Then, please sign.”
“Here it is.”
It wasn’t until Mina finished her signature and got her card back that she told Taeyeon the reason for the bill.
“Taeyeon, I owe a lot to you. So please let her pay her debt.”
“Oh, no, but-“
“This is no big deal. Please let us know when Jena comes here in the future. I will count.”
“Thank you, Mina unnie!”
While her grown-ups were talking, Yena was delighted and thanked Mina with her belly button.
Watching the two quarreling, I recalled old memories. At that time, Taeyeon loved Mina a lot when she was little, and Mina didn’t hate it either. She remembered that she liked the candy I gave her enough to secretly give it to her.
“Hey, no matter what, I have to pay for Yenna and mine!”
“No. I will. Please let me do it for you.”
Seeing Minah stubbornly stubborn, Taeyeon sighed and nodded her head.
“Haaaaa, okay.”
“Thank you, Taeyeon.”
“Instead, I will buy the drinks.”
“Wouldn’t that just give you a drink?”
“What, is this your first time at a kids cafe?”
“Yes that’s right. Where is my child?”
“But. It’s yena Let’s go in now.”
After the argument ended, the two entered the Kids Cafe with Jena.
“Heh”
I laughed quietly as I followed him. Even if it was Minah, there was no way she would suggest a threesome at a kids cafe.
… And, this prediction was completely correct.
