Chapter 729 – [A Dream That Didn’t Bloom]

Before long, Ana returned home. It was the day she finally returned home on vacation after traveling all over the world because of her work.

I also decided to meet her Ana that day, and she closed her shop today because she wanted to spend some intimate time with her husband and wife after a while.

By the way, I don’t know if it was in the past, but these days I receive reservations, so it’s easy to take a break if I leave the date empty. In the past, honestly, we would have met in the evening.

It’s fatal for a self-employed person to take a day off on a day that isn’t a regular holiday after all… Oh, by the way, our store is closed on the weekend. I work only from Mon to Fri and I rest on Sat and Sun.

Anyway, I go to the airport to meet Ana. As she waits in front of the terminal, Ana drags her carrier out.

For an instant, the eyes of the people waiting in front of the terminal are focused on Ana.

Being a foreign beauty is not unusual in an airport. It’s just the appearance and body that attract people’s attention.

A woman who covered one of her eyes, that alone was rare, but she was very beautiful, and her breasts might be a little small, but the curves of her body were very attractive. She was at least the kind of attractive beauty that could attract men’s attention.

“Oh, are you here? How was this job?”

“It wasn’t a big deal. It won’t be a big deal from now on.”

“It’s a lot of trouble”

“It’s not easy to organize the things that have been done since generation to generation. Anyway, let’s go.”

Ana can drive, but she can’t get someone on a long flight to drive. She is on her way to her house with Ana’s luggage, and even though she is in her car, she feels her gaze through her glass.

“Hmm, being pretty is a bit tiring after all.”

“A person with a pretty wife should suffer, what should I do?”

“Even if you’re a married woman, if you’re drinking coffee at a cafe, there are quite a few people walking up to you. Even when you were in Korea before, they asked in poor English. Actually, you’re Italian.”

“What kind of baby did you do?!?!”

“Don’t worry. I kicked them out by giving them face masks.”

“No, it’s all face-to-face”

I don’t know if I get rid of it in moderation, but isn’t it a bit too much for me to do that to my woman?

………No, why is the analogy so radical?

Is it the aftermath of the strange noises I heard in the past? Sometimes I feel like I’m being so strangely violent.

Murder is bad. It is also bad to hurt others. Even if you subdue your opponent, you’ll keep your limbs intact. Killing people is never, really, completely, anyway, a bad thing.

What? Then, how did Ana and I connect, who do mafia work, where killing people is an everyday level?

“It’s been a while since I came to Korea and it feels different”

“What do you do when you come often?”

“The feeling is different every time. Anyway, what are you going to do today?”

“Well, I don’t have any plans.”

“You’re irresponsible”

“So you don’t like it?”

“No, I rather liked it.”

As a rule, dating courses are mostly standardized.

Ana, who has lived in Italy, a passionate country in many ways, has experienced a lot of dating. Of course, among them, I was the only one who truly gave her heart, but she has a lot of experience, so she gets tired of anything typical.

But among them, the random dating course is different. I don’t know what will come out, but isn’t the person expected and the target expected?

So I don’t make any plans when I go out with Ana. If the day I met her was Christmas, I could run into the sea without hesitation to see the sunrise in the new year.

Honestly, it’s fun because there’s such an unpredictable possibility!!!!!

So there is no such thing as a typical day course for me!!!!

“Hmm, let’s eat first.”

“Do you have something to eat?”

“The only thing I want to eat in Korea is kimchi stew that you made for me.”

“Isn’t that what you think too much of?”

“How about something delicious?”

As a chef, this is something to be satisfied with. For Ana, my cuisine is like three Michelin stars.

It is not a big deal for Westerners to do this or that with something that tastes good in Korean food. It’s a matter of taste Even if it’s not that, I really like Italian pasta or pizza.

Ah, not the Korean arrangement, but the Italian style. It was delicious because I went with Ana.

Roughly like that It was said that the couple looked alike, so I couldn’t help but feel that they had something in common.

“Nice”

“Is it good that I’m by your side?”

“Yeah, that’s great”

“That’s strange. I thought it would feel a little bad.”

No, it can’t be.

It was nice to have Ana by her side, but it wasn’t bad. To me, she was the one I loved most……. She loved……. She was the one I loved anyway.

She smiled slightly bitterly and pointed somewhere outside her window.

“Let’s go over there. I can see the market. I like Korean markets to have their own feel, so let’s go around and grab some snacks.”

“Well… That would be nice too.”

Feeling foreign, I drove the car towards the market.

The place we went to is a really small market. Something smaller than the local market…… It was just the kind of market used by the surrounding residents.

There is no mart, so you just buy at the market, a market that doesn’t exist these days. It sells various herbs, foods, and ingredients.

“Not bad”

“Do you feel that way?”

“No, it’s something like a smell. If you see that it smells pretty good, you can almost feel that you’re selling it.”

“Isn’t that kind of scary?”

“……Huh? Is that so?”

What I felt was the smell of the market blown by the wind. Among them, I smelled the ingredients and averaged the quality.

In fact, that alone was beyond common sense. Even if I was a real gaeko, I wouldn’t smell that well.

Is it because of the mood I’ve been feeling lately?……. It keeps happening.

“Well, if it’s not a big deal, let’s enjoy the moment. I want to eat tteokbokki after a long time.”

“That’s right, I can do it at home.”

“It shouldn’t be like this for food service workers. Even if you can cook at home, don’t you sometimes feel like buying food outside instead of at home?”

“Oh, it’s not like that”

Think about it. No matter how well I make it at home, I can’t taste the Pikachu pork cutlet sold at the snack bar in front of the school.

For reference, it’s not tonkatsu or tonkatsu, it’s tonkatsu. It has its own factory-produced taste. Not only that, but also the taste of memories.

Eating at a bar, would it really taste the same as the nostalgic lunchbox with flour sausage from a spoon lunchbox that was heated on the stove in those days? Even the same dish is different depending on the situation.

Well, if it is difficult to understand, you can think of whether the taste of yukgaejang eaten in society and yukgaejang boiled in lukewarm water eaten while marching in the military are the same.

To be honest, I enjoyed eating it in the army… Mr., If you’re an orderly, you’re exempt from training, but your service number was messed up at the beginning of your deployment.

“Umm, 500 won worth of tteokbokki!!!!”

“No, these are still available these days. They must be delicious. Anyway, give me two.”

Honestly, in this day and age, I wondered if there would be food for 500 won, even if it was 1,000 won. Ana and I walk around the market eating tteokbokki filled with paper cups with skewers.

It tastes familiar. It tasted the same as the few hundred won tteokbokki I ate with my friends after elementary school.

Even if it costs 500 won now, it was cheaper back then. The price has changed as the years have passed and prices have risen, but the taste is strangely the same.

“I’m used to this, but what about you?”

“Me too. Tteokbokki tastes like this.”

“It’s not bad……. Well, let’s see if there’s anything else besides this.”

Ana and I wandered around the market looking around.

There was fish and there was also meat. There was something like this, but I didn’t buy it separately, I just looked at it.

The cost of the morning date was at most 1,000 won for tteokbokki, but it was very fun. Ana and I left the market fully satisfied.

“Sometimes it tastes good.”

“If it’s that kind of tteokbokki, I’m also…… No, is it a taste that’s meaningful to eat on the road?”

“Isn’t it the taste of memories?”

“No, I didn’t grow up in Korea, so what memories?”

“Well, I guess so”

Ana took the lead despite making strange noises. And we finished our date and returned home.

Drinks and cooking are ready, so now it’s time to spend time at home.

We prepared a lot for today!!!!!! Go Adriana!!!! Is there enough space in the stomach!!!!!!

“Where did the younger siblings go? Even if the youngest sibling went to school, I heard that her first sibling was on vacation.”

“Well, I’ll go out and play with my friends. You’re a soldier, but you’re not stuck at home.”

In fact, when you’re awake, you play games while rolling on your computer, and the other time you go out to play or sleep at home, let’s put it aside for a while.

Anyway, Myeong-eun called for something, and she answered after a while.

-Ah! Brother! Sorry. I came to the PC room with the kids today!!!

“What about studying!!!!”

-I took a mock test, but I need to rest at least this much to get enough rest!!!!

“I’ll see you when you get your grades.”

God, no matter how much it is, if you come in tonight, you will see Ana’s face and go in. Let’s stop contacting him for now since he’s out on military leave and going out to play.

In the end, it’s just me and Ana at home. It’s been a while since it’s just the two of us, so it’s nice.

Even if this is my house, my brothers and sisters live there. I’ll leave when the kids grow up and stand on their own, but at least it wasn’t Ana and I’s newlyweds’ house until then.

But today… Hmm hmm hmm, I guess we’ll spend time as husband and wife.

“Please show off your skills after a while. When I was abroad, I missed the food you cooked for me, so I endured it by drinking at night.”

“No, I can’t use it if I just drink alcohol without snacks… Well, that’s okay. It’s important to eat deliciously first.”

I cooked all the dishes I prepared for her Ana. Like Hanjeongsik or Manhanjeonseok, the legs are broken…… No, if you can’t eat it all, even though you don’t have the will, it seems that you didn’t think of it because you did it with sincerity.

Even though there are many kinds, the quantity is small, so two people can eat enough. If there are leftovers, give them to the kids to eat.

“Cheers then”

“What are you toasting for?”

“Well… Maybe it’s for you”

“You probably know better than me. If the business goes well, then I will also prosper.”

“That doesn’t mean much, so let’s just make a toast for you.”

“What do you mean by that?”

Ana and I clinked glasses, ate snacks, and chatted.

Very much

It was a very normal and happy time.

It’s really, really normal, but it’s what I was hoping for. But for some reason, a strange feeling came back to me.

By the time I finished eating, I went out on the veranda with a glass of wine.

Even if it’s a wine glass, it’s not the wine that’s in it, it’s the alcohol I dipped in it. It was an alcoholic drink that had been aged for several years and was not sold even to regulars.

Keuuh…… I want to taste the ginseng wine that I drank for 100 years!!!! It’s delicious anyway. Especially good for men.

Well, even if you don’t need that, you should prepare for it. It’s not that I refuse to give it, so it’s better to drink it and supplement it regularly.

“The moon is good”

“Is that so… No, is that it? Says the moon is pretty and says something like a love confession?”

“I just said the moon is pretty”

“Ugh, I was surprised to know you were making a son-in-law today.”

“Why is it a son? Why not a daughter?”

“I like it either way. It’s a matter of luck, and it’s not something we can interfere with.”

Looking at the moon, clink glasses with Ana to toast, and drink while looking at the moon.

I ate all the snacks, but it was a very beautiful day with the moon so that drinking alone would be enough.

And Ana, who was looking at the moon carefully, spoke slowly.

“……You know that? Today is actually not the time for a full moon to rise.”

“I wonder if the time difference is different in Italy…”

“No, it’s not that kind of problem. I’m talking about the time outside, not the time here.”

“Outside? No, outside where?”

Outside, what are you talking about? House? Or Korea? Or the Earth?

But Ana shook her head and said.

It’s a pity, but a smile is displayed on her face as she intends to let go.

“Isn’t it about time you realized the reality? You’ve had enough sweet dreams… And dreams have meaning only when you wake up.”

And that moment.

Numerous memories flooded in with her head shattering pain.

Not the worst cook, but the worst memory of being a transcendental person, a reincarnated person, and Shion’s husband.
