Ephphatha Chapter 21
“I haven’t said much yet.” “Ah… Oh, thank you for the water.” As she accepted the cup with both hands, he let out a deflating laugh and filled her cup to the brim. Seul-ah took a few small sips of the warm tea as a gesture of appreciation, then took off her bag and placed it on the chair beside her. Although she had run into him today, it didn’t seem like the right time to return the handkerchief and money. She decided to wait for another opportunity,…-

Ephphatha Chapter 20
Even though she arrived earlier than the appointed time, Seo Han-seong’s sedan was already parked in front of her house. As she hastened her steps, a neatly dressed man stepped out of the driver’s seat. He raised both hands slightly in the air as if to stop her. “Take your time.” “Hello. You came early.” “The traffic wasn’t bad.” As he naturally moved to the passenger side and opened the door for her, Seul-ah’s gaze inadvertently…-

Ephphatha Chapter 2
Seul-ah pinched her nose and backed away to avoid the man who was speaking entirely on his own terms. As much as she moved her legs to push her body backward, his pupils followed her. "I think you have the wrong person. I don't know you." "Of course. We’re meeting for the first time today. But did you really think I, of all people, would have expected Han Ji-seon’s daughter to wait on me?" "What...? You... know my mom?" "Would I be here if I…-

Ephphatha Chapter 19
What exactly am I supposed to do? Tak. Seul-ah shut her laptop lid with a slight furrow in her brow. She marked "Today's Work" as completed on her checklist, placed the English dictionary inherited from her mother back in its place, and tidied up her pen and notebook—all with visible dissatisfaction. After finishing her desk cleanup, Seul-ah checked the clock on her desk, which pointed to 2:30 PM, then flopped onto her bed. Studying English vocabulary at…-

Ephphatha Chapter 18
Since Chi-gyeom naturally knew the password to the shared entrance, he opened the door without hesitation, only to turn his head and find Seul-ah glaring at him. “What?” “You have no right to lecture anyone about manners. It’s been bothering me, but why do you keep addressing my mom so informally? She’s much older than you.” “So what?” “You could at least show some basic respect for an…-

Seo Han-seong led her to a restaurant inside the department store. It was an act of consideration for her, as she seemed quite exhausted, and Seul-ah recognized this and felt grateful. Thanks to him ordering in line with her preferences, she was able to comfortably fill her stomach with a salad and half a salmon steak. Their conversation flowed smoothly. He asked her light questions that wouldn’t make her feel uncomfortable, and she responded without pressure, allowing…-

Ephphatha Chapter 16
"What?" A gasp escaped her lips, and she quickly shut her mouth. - “I've only ever used that handkerchief.” His voice, lower than usual, was accompanied by a deep sigh, carrying a sense of genuine disappointment. Seul-ah's anxious eyes wavered and landed on the urn holding her mother's ashes on the living room shelf. A single chrysanthemum was placed inside the lidless urn. "Ah, um... Kwak Chi-gyeom, I'm sorry, I..." - “It can't be…-

Ephphatha Chapter 15
He slowly swept his gaze over the long, slanted eyes, the dense eyelashes, and the reddened, swollen eyelids from crying before bringing his index finger to them. A fine eyelash landed on his fingernail. When he brushed it aside, Seul-ah squeezed her eyes shut, then opened them again, as if tickled. Of course, he had no peculiar habit of collecting eyelashes. He had suggested it as a joke because her tear-streaked face intrigued him, and since her reaction was amusing, he had simply…-

Ephphatha Chapter 14
As soon as she pressed the search button, the first thing that popped up was a list of internet articles sorted by the most recent. The latest article, uploaded just 40 minutes ago, was about a kidnapping attempt in the countryside. Multiple newspapers had reported that a man who tried to abduct a local resident was immediately caught by a passing police officer. She scrolled down, but there were no other headlines that stood out. After a brief moment of thought, Seul-ah…-

Ephphatha Chapter 13
After bowing twice, she turned toward the chief mourner. He was still looking at her with an expression of discomfort. Quickly wiping her tear-streaked face, Seul-ah bowed to him. "I'm sorry. I was contacted so suddenly that I..." "...I see." Lee Ju-tae let out a long sigh, adjusting his expression. Seul-ah took a deep breath, trying to calm her turbulent emotions. She was curious about what had happened for her aunt to pass away so suddenly, but she…-
