by Calen_ongo — “…….” Sunwoo Chang quietly gazed down at the sleeping Go Eunjae. The skin around her eyes, which she had rubbed so hard earlier, was even redder now. A white pen loosely held in her hand and a piece of paper with scribbles were also visible. The contents weren’t clear from a distance, so he walked around the bed and moved closer to the window. On the document that bore evidence of her efforts to write something, squiggly lines like worms crawled endlessly across the…

by Calen_ongo — It was already the second time in just one day. The second time someone had contacted them saying they couldn’t locate Go Eunjae. Sunwoo Chang ran a rough hand through his hair. Around 9 a.m., Jeon Sohee, who had been entrusted with full authority over managing the apartment, had sent someone over to Go Eunjae’s place. After the necessary items were moved in and the workers had left, a cleaning crew finished tidying up the first floor and departed. From that point until the housekeeper…

by Calen_ongo — “Maybe… if I just run really fast, it’ll be fine.” No. No matter how fast she was, she couldn’t outrun professional thugs. It was too risky—a dangerous gamble not worth the attempt. As the sun began to set and the streetlights flickered on, it suddenly started pouring rain. She vaguely recalled seeing news about localized downpours due to a passing typhoon’s outer bands. Even though she took shelter under the eaves of the building lobby, the wind howled from every direction,…

Please feel free to use any of the items provided as needed. We will make sure to promptly supply anything that may be lacking. ✉️ Thank you for your hard work even at this late hour.

by Calen_ongo — “Do I look like I’m feeling guilty?” “No, you don’t. That’s why I don’t get why you’re acting this way.” He stared at her for a moment before speaking calmly. “I told you. I’ve been an asshole since birth.” “……” “You said you’d try to endure it. Can’t handle it already?” “That’s not it. I’m good at putting up with things.” “Hearing you say that makes me wonder just how much you can endure.” The muttered words sank low into the…

by Calen_ongo — As her tension rose, her pulse began to race. It felt just like the moments before stepping onto a stage. “Sit down.” Though the sofa was large, Go Eunjae knew exactly where a guest was supposed to sit in relation to the host’s position. Not too close, but not so far that she couldn’t reach if she stretched out her hand—that was the perfect distance. She gauged the right spot and sat on the sofa, placing the envelope and the black plastic bag one after the other on her…

by Calen_ongo — "I don’t need that land. I have no debt, and I work hard to earn money every month, so you can have it all." "I don’t need it either." She already knew that. But to move forward, she had to say it. "I have nothing else to offer you." "You’re marrying a man ten years older than you. If anything, shouldn’t I be the one giving you something?" "I’m not being sold off." "Then what is it?" "It’s… a strategic marriage." "And yet, you say you have nothing to offer…

by Calen_ongo — "I did it." Lies. Go Eunjae didn’t believe him. Even if she wasn’t good at lying, she had a sharp eye for spotting them. “You don’t believe me.” “I know it’s a lie.” “What if it’s not?” “You said you don’t have time.” “I don’t. Because I was busy doing this.” Was he serious? Did he really write this himself? Just as Eunjae was about to fall for it, Sunwoo Chang smirked slightly. The moment she realized she had been tricked, her eyes…

by Calen_ongo — The sheer presence of Sunwoo Chang was already overwhelming, but combined with the swirling cigarette smoke, the suffocating air of menace grew even heavier. But Go Eunjae had already taken everything into account when she decided to get on the same boat as him. She had resolved to go along with most of what he wanted. As she watched the smoke dissipate, she only wished he would get to the point and leave quickly. Sunwoo Chang stared at her the entire time he smoked. "Are you afraid of…

by Calen_ongo — It was a morning like any other. Eunjae arrived at work earlier than usual and began cleaning the store. It had already been six months since she started working as a sales assistant at the main branch of Daeseong Wang Jokbal in Sunil Market. Most people assumed a jokbal (braised pig’s trotters) shop was a restaurant, but the place where Go Eunjae worked was different. The pig trotters were prepped in a factory, then delivered to the store, where they were boiled, packed, and sold. The…
