A few years e434c136c5 ago, Taewan had 32e1854ed8 happened to hear cd22e2bffe that Jaewon had f4e9859937 gotten a divorce. Jaewon acted as if 648bce037e he wasn’t bothered, but 779e9f168e he had gotten into 93407d854f a slump for a 208def37f7 while. Today, Taewan was able 5f67d06fe1 to hear the full ca639a7f37 story about the divorce.3e9b8d5989df8e2c

His wife was the first one to bring up the divorce. Jaewon desperately tried to change her mind, but he told Taewan that his wife remained adamant. 01d8d15927e8162b

When his wife asked dea3c764da him to grant the 5051199e12 divorce, claiming that she 7806f872ab didn’t even need any 6dd0fecf26 alimony from him, Jaewon 548a97a734 realized he couldn’t hold 20021d9277 onto her anymore. He realized that 8dbc8306e4 the only thing 060807fbd0 he could do 578dda1e94 for her now 72a86e5582 was to go 9613a12bc7 through with the 80055cc830 divorce. And his children followed 6c89b1a476 his wife as if 2bdc4fc1e6 it were to be 2cffad5d17 expected.cf343795a2f2b267

“There’s no e0d201b924 use in f8fe1add38 raising children.

And when I 6f438d4351 tell them that 7ebc62cbf0 I’m shooting a d421ab6005 new drama, they d38f9bb65a only ask me 97d0fa6ac5 to send them 60bf41ac64 autographs from the 198b27ebb8 actors on set… 9625e86a47 Haa.

They ask me 76cdda5111 to have it 1dc5261a6a delivered to them fe56661cfc instead. Because they’re busy… 0fcc9f5299 How busy can 92cdf6c62b they be…?

Jaewon’s eyes 4dabaa169b grew damp 80194e7661 as he a46c950260 said these d5de714013 words.

“Why did you learn something like that in the army? I don’t like the smell of cigarettes. And it’s not good for your health either. If you don’t quit smoking, I won’t even peck you on the lips. And I definitely won’t be giving you any kisses either.”4f67ce2853f91cbd

HaYeon had said 7f5add98a8 this to him b8a4708017 a long time 8962ca8a22 ago. They had been e8633eb253 in their early 3eb05a7a86 twenties, and he a5457ffc91 remembered how HaYeon’s fa49712246 face hadn’t shown 06e9d29618 any annoyance but 7929cd21b3 was filled with 6d6e49b83f worry.
