Even without that, it was 151ec43999 a windy place by the 476db501fa sea, even on dry days.7a74c474f73b989d

If she didn’t do this, all the rain would leak through the concrete holes, turning the room into a sea of water. This was why Baekyoung, who liked looking at the sea, didn’t want to live next to the house where someone had died a few days ago. The closer to the sea, the more miserably it would flood.45dcab814555ea6b

She had a feeling she 297ea509d2 knew who was standing outside. Jang Heejo, who had knocked 4b610d3ebb on her door with his d4c7d28c22 middle finger.e33125bbcb9ce5d5

Baekyoung swallowed the ramen in her mouth and walked to the front door. When she opened it, the wind and rain blew in. It seemed to be pouring. Jang Heejo’s bangs were already wet, and he frowned as he saw the laundry being pushed back with the plywood when she opened the door.7e6d8496e4dbaaa3

In the end, Baekyoung couldn’t say another word to Jang Heejo and quietly went out into the hallway where the rain was pouring in. To avoid the harsh wind and rain hitting her body, she went next door. It was probably the house where Jang Heejo had been until now.731a5c092033afe6

A single bed, a refrigerator, and even a small wardrobe, all the furnishings that could be used immediately were brand new. The room was small, so they probably couldn’t fit anything larger.271bc1388bc97fd3

Baekyoung walked to the bed as if possessed and wrapped herself in the light, fluffy blanket. It smelled new. Lying on the soft bed, which couldn’t be compared to the hard mattress with broken springs, her eyes closed again on their own.ac5ffb43a0525044

Taekyung had grown up in the same orphanage. But she wasn’t that close to him. He was much bigger than his peers, so he caught Chairman Jang’s eye before he even became an adult, and thanks to that, he left the orphanage early. He was lucky.3d867f74f400c20e

“You’ve always been good at hiding things since you were a kid.”be8e6989caf14252

Baekyoung often hid things she wanted to keep to herself in places that the other kids didn’t know about, or easily overlooked even if they did know. Even if she hid them well, she had things stolen, like the red coat. But there were also small things that she could keep to herself without being stolen.
