INT Ch 7.3
by mimiHyun Woojin’s mother, who was organizing the shopping bag she had placed on the dining table, alternated her gaze between the law book Haewon had returned to its place and the violin case before asking.
“A school junior. This is just a hobby.”
If he were a law student, Hyun Woojin’s mother wouldn’t demand something as absurd as asking him to write his name in Chinese characters. Only then did Haewon realize his blunder. Law was not a subject he could cover up with improvisation.

It was beyond ignorance; claiming to be a law student while not even being able to write his own name in Chinese characters was preposterous.
“That instrument looks pretty high-quality. Is it a violin or a viola?”

“Pardon? It’s a violin.”
“I play the violin as a hobby too. I even volunteer to perform with other ladies.”

He had mentioned that both his mother and father were doctors. Beneath her short bob cut, pearl earrings shimmered with a dignified luster.

He swallowed nervously. Hyun Woojin’s mother gave a small nod of affirmation. Since she didn’t resemble him much, Haewon assumed Hyun Woojin must take after his father.
“Can I take a look at your violin?”

Unable to strongly refuse, Haewon hesitated, awkwardly extending a hand to stop her but not daring to snatch it away. Hyun Woojin’s mother quickly grabbed the Musafia violin wood case he had purchased in Italy. It was a case designed with safety as its priority, sturdy enough to withstand being run over by a car.
She moved aside the containers of side dishes she had brought and placed the case on the dining table.

When she opened the case, a Brahms score tucked into the inner zipper fell out. The inside of the case, lined with slightly extravagant fabric, held four bows. The first wooden bow, made of Mongolian horsehair and the same wood as the violin’s resonance chamber, was the primary bow worth over 100 million won. The second was for orchestra use, the third for chamber music, and the fourth was a carbon bow he used casually—even occasionally tossing it in frustration.
The carbon bow was for contemporary pieces that required col legno or prioritized expressiveness over classical accuracy. Haewon carried a cheaper bow for such purposes because performing rough techniques that could snap hairs on an expensive bow wasn’t ideal. Most violinists kept a couple of inexpensive bows as backups.

“There’s so much in here. It’s quite different from what I’ve seen before.”
Of course, it would differ from a hobbyist’s violin.

She picked up the violin by its neck. Ah, Haewon froze with his hand half-extended. Whether it was because she was Hyun Woojin’s mother or due to his overwhelming embarrassment, he couldn’t find the words to tell her not to touch it, and he kept nervously swallowing.
“May I try playing it?”

“Wait, no, um, Ma’am—”
She placed the chin rest between her chin and shoulder and, of all things, picked up the main bow without tightening the screw or tuning the violin and drew it across the G string. Startled by the screechy sound, she removed the bow and looked at Haewon.

“It sounds different, probably because it’s a professional instrument.”
With a loose bow, there was no way a proper tone could emerge. All it produced was a hoarse, unpleasant noise, but she pretended to be surprised. She had never touched a violin before.

Smiling, she carefully put Haewon’s violin and bow back in their places. She gathered the scattered Brahms sheet music and returned it to the first zipper pocket where it belonged.
“Do you play Brahms’ violin concerto as a hobby?”

It was clear she was asking because she knew his flimsy lie. Haewon, who had never felt nervous performing in front of a thousand people, found his throat dry. It had been a long time since he felt this stiff, his back tense like it was during the grueling Ye-Won entrance exams. Sweat began to bead on his palms.
“I’m sorry. I’m not really a junior… Actually, the truth is… well, the truth is…”

When Haewon clasped his hands politely and apologized, Hyun Woojin’s mother asked if everything was okay now. Haewon nodded in affirmation.
“The prosecutor resolved it, but I’m a bit on the sensitive side. I was scared and anxious, so I came over impulsively. When he wasn’t home, I said I had nowhere else to go, and he said he’d let me stay here for one night. That’s how it happened.”

What she thought must have sounded absurd even to her. It would have been more convincing if Haewon had broken in after watching Hyun Woojin enter the door code, stayed in his bed while he was away on a business trip, and been caught by his unexpectedly returning mother like a classic stalker.
“Wait a moment.”

Stopping her from making any call, Haewon saw her stare at him sharply, as if daring him not to pull any tricks. If he really were a stalker, he could have easily pushed away a middle-aged woman with no resistance and run off. But with the violin she held like a hostage, he couldn’t just bolt.
So that’s why she suddenly wanted to see the violin.

She thought it was stolen. Haewon silently took back what he’d thought earlier—she was undoubtedly Hyun Woojin’s mother.
“Just let me drink a glass of water first.”

His mouth was parched from the tension. Hyun Woojin’s mother took a water bottle from the fridge and placed it on the table, keeping her distance. Haewon sighed, walked over to the lonely bottle, and gulped down the water. Wiping his lips with the back of his hand, he took the violin and bow from the open case she had left.
After attaching the shoulder rest, he positioned the violin between his chin and shoulder and began tuning it. He tuned by ear, likely achieving precise G, D, E, and A notes without any error. However, even after tuning, it felt slightly off. The cold weather seemed to have affected the instrument. Fixing it was beyond what Haewon could do alone; it required a professional technician.

While he was still tuning, she sharply asked why he wasn’t starting yet.
It wasn’t that he was stalling; the tuning wasn’t perfect. The issue lay with the instrument. Deciding to proceed despite the subtly detuned sound, Haewon paused just before drawing the bow. He turned his head toward her. Startled, she flinched at his gaze.

“…Alright.”
Paganini’s Caprice No. 24 is a variation piece that encompasses all kinds of advanced techniques and unfolds through eleven variations. It incorporates trills, double stops, left-hand pizzicato, and more, making it sound like two violins are playing together.
Support us by visiting our official site at lilyonthevalley.com
The piece requires not only masterful left-hand technique but also exceptional bowing skills. Without precise execution, it blurs the line between music and noise. Among the 24 caprices, it demands the highest level of control and is notoriously challenging.
To prove the violin wasn’t stolen, Haewon found himself in the bizarre position of having to perform Caprice No. 24 at seven in the morning.
For the best reading experience, visit lilyonthevalley.com
He began with the familiar opening theme of the well-arranged piece. For professionals, the Caprices are mandatory repertoire, but performing them well is a different story.
Haewon, who deeply admired Ruggiero Ricci—renowned as Paganini’s reincarnation—had been captivated by his performances. During his time at Yeowon School of Arts, Haewon had completed all 24 Caprices and could perform them in their entirety.

The fingers of his left hand moved dazzlingly across the fingerboard, faster than his eyes or ears could follow.
Caprice No. 24 is composed of eleven variations. Bowing intensely as his breathing quickened, Haewon unconsciously pressed his lips tightly together. Playing a fast-paced piece early in the morning, when his fingers weren’t even warmed up, was pure torture.

On the violin, the spacing between notes in the high registers is very narrow, requiring immense focus and precise finger positioning for continuous triple stops.
He plucked the string with his fingers while intently targeting the correct positions. Left-hand pizzicato requires plucking the string while still holding the violin, which demands a significant amount of strength in the fingers.
Support us by visiting our official site at lilyonthevalley.com
Moreover, the trill required him to use his weaker fourth and little fingers. Playing without warming up his hands would lead to cramping in his fingers.
After barely finishing the intricate pizzicato section, he pressed the bow hard enough that it seemed the string might snap.

Before he even realized it, the four minutes were over.
“Haah…”

There were more mistakes than he’d expected. He missed the double trills in two places. Perfectly performing this piece was impossible from the start, and the fact that he managed to play this well in the morning was already quite impressive.
Haewon let out a tired sigh and turned his head, locking eyes with the woman.

“Ah.”
Right, he had been performing in front of Hyun Woojin’s mother. After finishing a piece, his mind often went blank—he’d forget what he had done before and what he had planned to do next.

The morning air was mild, the weather having warmed up. Haewon knew he should inform him about what happened to prevent any awkward situations, but he could only stare at his phone, unable to make the call.
Even in the taxi on the way home, Haewon kept glancing at his phone. He knew Hyun Woojin wouldn’t naively tell his mother the truth about their relationship, but if they talked without coordinating their stories, misunderstandings could arise. Hyun Woojin might even forbid him from visiting the officetel again.

Hyun Woojin’s mother declared she would become a classical music enthusiast starting today and even asked for Haewon’s autograph, though he wasn’t particularly famous. It didn’t seem like a situation that would simply blow over.
Her name was Choi Hyunmi. She had insisted that he write “To Choi Hyunmi,” so Haewon ended up learning her name against his will.

He felt like he was going to get scolded. He could imagine it already: “Why did you go there? If you ran into my mother, you should’ve just made up an excuse and left. Why did you do something so unnecessary?” Explaining a situation so illogical and inexplicable to someone like him, who prioritized reason and causality, felt daunting.
Perhaps it would be better to just confess honestly and get it over with. Haewon called him. These days, he was the one initiating calls more often.

Not knowing that Choi Hyunmi had suspected him of being a stalker, petty thief, or fence, he hung up the phone casually without asking anything further, as if it wasn’t a big deal. His indifferent reaction left Haewon feeling deflated, realizing he had been worrying and overreacting alone. It was the guilt and fear of doing something Hyun Woojin disliked that had made Haewon hesitate.
It was hopeless. Haewon couldn’t deny that his feelings for him were growing deeper.

The violin sounded a little off when he played it in front of Choi Hyunmi in the morning. The changeable spring weather had caused the sound to dip due to lack of proper maintenance. Winter had passed, and spring had quietly arrived. The transitional period between seasons required particularly meticulous care, and it seemed the late-night carrying and moving around yesterday had taken its toll.

Haewon took the violin to an instrument workshop. The engineer said that due to humidity and temperature changes, the position of the sound post had shifted slightly, causing balance issues.
After leaving the violin at the workshop and returning home, evening had already fallen. Thinking about the hours it would take to retrieve the violin again in a few days already felt tedious. He unlocked the door and went inside.

Someone was sitting on the unlit living room sofa. It was Hyun Woojin. He was asleep, sitting with his arms crossed on the sofa.
“…”

A mix of joy and surprise hit him suddenly, making it hard to breathe. Haewon carefully moved his steps, trying not to wake him. He drew the curtains to block the light from the signboards of the building across the street. From his steady breathing, it seemed he was in a deep sleep.
He had a slight frown on his face, as if lost in thought, and was napping in an uncomfortable position. Haewon quietly gazed at his face. He brushed aside the hair that had fallen messily over his forehead, parting it into a more natural look.

He quickly stifled a laugh trying to escape his lips. Pulling out his phone, he took pictures of him. Snap, snap, snap—capturing him from the front, side, above, below, and various angles. Every time the shutter sound clicked, his forehead twitched slightly.
He cautiously sat beside him. Gently, he pushed back Hyun Woojin’s stiff shoulders. His tightly folded arms loosened, and he slumped against the sofa, leaning slightly toward him. His head tilted softly in Haewon’s direction.

His lips were right in front of him. Though serene, his features still carried their composed elegance. He bore no resemblance to Choi Hyunmi upon closer inspection. The high bridge of his nose cast deep shadows across one side of his face. Even with his eyes closed, the sharp intelligence of his deep-set gaze seemed palpable.
Haewon didn’t make a sound, not even breathing audibly. He could feel the warmth of his face and lips so close to his. His exhalation through his nose brushed against his skin.

He wanted to wake him up and ask why he was there, sitting like this. He wanted to ask why he hadn’t been surprised about meeting Choi Hyunmi, why he hadn’t scolded him for going there, and why he’d acted as if it was completely natural to meet someone he was supposed to see anyway.
He wanted to ask if he was here to satisfy some physical need. If he still couldn’t forget his fiancée. Then what about him—what was he to him? What was he in his life? Haewon’s mind filled with questions he wanted to ask him.

But he pretended not to notice the growing frustration in his chest. He pacified the beast within him. He let go of the things he couldn’t or wouldn’t answer. Now wasn’t the time. Like music carried away on the wind, now was the time to let his futile emotions flow to a place beyond reach.
As he stared at his lips, Haewon tilted his face slightly. The warm, soft surface of his lips touched his. Their exhalations mingled. A soothing warmth began in his chest, spreading languidly through his whole body.

His lips and breath, Hyun Woojin’s warmth, awakened something deep within Haewon’s heart. It was comforting and tender, yet left a faint chill in one corner of his soul.
When he emerged from the shower later, Hyun Woojin, whose lips had been stolen in his sleep, was awake. He sat with his arms crossed again, looking just as he had earlier. Then, Hyun Woojin looked at him and asked.

A small mole under the right shoulder blade, a scar that looked quite old, the subtle movements of his fine hairs.
The man, who had been lying on his side, let out a low moan and straightened his body. Haewon spread his arms and snuggled up to Hyun Woojin’s side, pressing against him.

His breathing changed, indicating he was awake. Startled, Hyun Woojin sat up. As he did, Haewon naturally lay back on the bed, losing his support. The man reached over Haewon to grab his phone from the side table. He turned on the phone, which had been off.
Haewon pulled up the sheet that had been dragged down by the man sitting up and deliberately made a fuss about being cold. He could feel the man looking at him. He pulled the bedding up to Haewon’s neck, covering him warmly.
