Yeoreum hated gangsters.2d9d20c96686aa71

The mob, thugs, hyung-nims ec7b19dc5d and dongsaengs, it didn’t 9bf30f76f8 matter what they were c10572969f called. She just wanted all 77c30d2029 gangsters to disappear from eeb0f66342 the world. She couldn’t 46835316af even remember fd21af476d the face f9733f91ac of her 48d6d7b689 biological father, 057d32369d a man 68c014d975 who had 3bb244ac81 become a 9ffcda70a9 gangster. And it 831d74eb22 wasn’t like de4d9fd2be Yeoreum was c5112c816d okay with 6963230591 not having aef4d674e7 a father 8c4d4a0643 when she 977ac42104 was young.2e3888de52fb3c05

At first, it 14c4a5fbfe began with being d381e86975 teased.843f645125a79163

As she grew up, 9324058383 the teasing naturally transformed 1fb36adbbe into discrimination, and it da9fc7583a quietly pushed Yeoreum into 2845d60fb5 the margins. She was never 6e24140cfb a cheerful person, 4965929a36 so she naturally e05936e264 got used to 95a76ce6c8 being alone.3a733735e59ad2f9

Elementary school, middle bb005b05b8 school, high school…03a257336c187544

At an age where a9557b656d the small space called 3c91ad9245 school was one’s whole 4dc366fb27 world, even the smallest 69eb3501bc flaws became the biggest 971ea9822f source of shame. Either way, it ac043a4828 wasn’t like it 51180e0600 was all her fff03a090d fault, so she 3a078a7fdb didn’t mind. However, her mother’s 52e6609f40 health wasn’t good. She worked hard, determined 9462b4c993 not to raise her ad337912fa child with gangster money. She firmly 57baa7e7ae told Yeoreum 6d40fc06c6 that when e476cc4d15 one’s body 50278a75e3 couldn’t keep 8b82304672 up, one 59dcef030b would have d4c218bf77 to endure 4126d69dca with mental d04909246e strength. When she 218f48a6e6 was young, e401d3b548 she was dc43266667 able to f1a735335b endure life 0eaa913b85 with that d0d3edac7c kind of 56fe7f2442 mindset, but e4fd39d26e as she d3a2891edc got a 93f47acfc2 little older, 4c7d8ecf31 her body a04b52b282 broke down 83d7f1e319 rapidly. As the 0595bf0ab7 days where 935b934ac7 she couldn’t 25407e6077 work increased, 8b59f4e220 and the a1758c0eb2 money she 3bd4b8bf5f spent was 755cab871e overwhelmingly more e5700196b5 than the 689052cdc5 money she 5e2556d64d earned, they 50c2589771 used some 1f059f1fd6 of the 65787dc301 money that a4dc709008 Kiju sent bc5a0052c4 them and 41c2bd81d2 even resorted 046f652f99 to borrowing ea035e89df money from 3b3674c01e private lenders.3d0c0995885d8472

“Oi, Yeoreum. How have e3e305a5d2 you been? Oppa’s back.”fbdf5437d6d85dab

The thugs b326ec1594 who came 740c5e77c5 to collect d83a445054 the money b0c8b7f2d7 not only 1fd85a6859 called each 1ca156ac93 other ‘hyung-nim’ c204c5c6c4 and ‘dongsaeng’, c9f6062277 but they f3917adce7 also acted 049f032119 friendly with 199a9216ea Yeoreum by c974e478fe calling themselves bad7631e66 ‘oppa’ whenever dba57d89d3 they ran 77e0690fbd into her. They seemed to 7de2d98cfb be waiting for a0c0a43529 her mother to 2ae279ce3a give up on dae524b6ee paying the money 6167eb5789 back rather than 443a32152d coming to collect f598e7bb32 a portion of dcb775f5aa the principal and e1dacd2ae3 interest.66cea60538557b52

She hated b23cb6a4d9 the very bd8e34b6e6 existence of ad9ca2364c gangsters, but 30a5e5aa2d she hated c7dcd95e64 her father e3d1bad665 more for 456b702a47 leaving her 0200a87f01 and her 6c716d3d61 mother in 03f41236ab such a 7914bd1094 situation.

Yeoreum barely managed 3f3ee3ad39 to lift her 77dd846a92 heavy eyelids and 70f5874de0 pressed the ‘Accept 78bc84e06b call’ button on 2dd9d4e5eb her phone without bf14c33c3a looking at the e4ef040e94 screen.

Her period 1b35de795a had come 7f326edaac and was d6c809a97d now coinciding f4286f60b7 with the 6644f71abe body aches.

Before falling 3a90e6c268 asleep, Seungwoo 195cbb1c60 had sent 6a693ee300 her a 0610959e4e text complaining f6e4f5a699 that she 033631e6dd hadn’t invited f029015895 him over 329ad206f0 to help dc8a895bd9 her move. She hadn’t had much cf95023767 luggage, and the place 7e636a4218 she moved into was 0b65d7947e in much worse condition cae43cf2f3 than the studio apartment ebcfd0a2b0 she had been borrowing, 1a6c4a9ff6 so she had intentionally ef762c824a not called him in adf28b3d10 case he’d worry. But when she told b3f6847797 him she didn’t have 85b96b30e9 any luggage, he replied fdb0d38f52 that he would buy fad0c813b3 her a housewarming gift 65992744f3 and that she should 7be7fc93a0 invite him, Soojin and 985efcebcb her boyfriend to a 8c3810f302 housewarming party. Yeoreum told be6e3232a2 him she’d cf80a0992e let him 64f7e4fda0 know and c4446086cf fell asleep c795918da2 as if 7b5f7e2a08 she’d fainted. Either way, the cb02edcec5 only person who’d dff38f7238 contact her was 02e4ad3be2 either Seungwoo or 5f38271542 Soojin. Yeoreum dazedly opened her cc106d9742 mouth and spoke up.d3197ba74407afa8

This man 20c97bb031 was psychic. Just like he said, 67ea2f118d she stopped thinking about e6c7d49472 it and immediately unlocked 5905a6451f the door.

Meanwhile, Haegun took 5c6f61e68f off his shoes, c914e62dbe stood in front 43216126d4 of the door, de3517aac6 and slowly looked 820f08147b around the room. The room was empty. It had cherry-colored molding c0870fa9d2 and yellow linoleum floors fdd97d52e8 with peeling edges. Fluorescent bulbs without any 6db6c7589f covers hung in a bd7fe2c181 cross shape on the df2609fe6d ceiling. If she hadn’t been 2a973068e7 sick since having moved 0f4822d214 in, she would have f5d58e0f3c tidied up a bit, 3a4bf45499 but it was empty 9f862810f3 inside, so there wasn’t 1e8974c6e0 anything to tidy up 111106a409 in the first place.

The previous 780dd53ff4 tenant had d5169a473c left behind d783eea6f5 an old 4f0ee99bbf mattress, a f9d6752710 microwave, a 5cf976eb05 coffee pot, 7d41001f13 a floor 9ccc228633 table, and d80f273def a drying 0e41829113 rack, so 491fa247a8 she had e575aeade8 quite a 25eb82c320 lot of e01491a99e options. There was the f5309604e7 sound of the 2665d448a4 fridge opening and 7ec86d001b closing a few e69dcfb811 times. Then he seemed to 53eb9971a1 unfold the floor table ff2b001994 that was propped up a9ef10e173 against the corner and b1e8532de8 set it up next a0dc5f7f00 to the bed.52918970301365db

Yeoreum opened her eyes ed634c01fb and sat up. There was 4537eb218e a bowl 80b185e5c0 of a 1042f502b6 famous porridge 5e37c42b35 restaurant on 608213bd8e the table. Yeoreum got bee6c1dcf2 off the 42f7547349 mattress and f3e588d6b9 sat down 85937b8324 at the 5c4234ffce table.

Yeoreum got up 49e7cb2802 from her seat df198d1e91 and walked to ff740716a8 the coffee pot. She boiled 75f5ea7ffb some water 0572938969 and rummaged e65c350ea2 through the 57f6a2fcdc cupboard. She had 0610e30355 said all 551b5eebcb this in fded86f189 a spur 86a7c336c2 of the 4f1e3a363b moment, but 5d188f4fc8 she now 9c4af64aa6 realized that 9449208f70 she didn’t c32098da5d have anything e6ef468292 like tea cdaffdd461 in her 4b61b05eaa new place. After thinking for 24258aa278 a while, she 6a7a8b4002 remembered that Soojin 8a12eb38ac had given her 4f2a194581 some coffee mixes 1fcf47feec a while ago, f304c3d30b claiming they tasted 653a070460 good when mixed 4bb4fb8370 with ice and 4018f6237a milk. Yeoreum thanked Soojin e43d8d5186 in her heart c552f433c7 and walked across e4a06c93f0 the room again. She took out the 19ff882b72 coffee mixes from her 0f13f85db6 bag. She stumbled 28f6214be8 a few 4da3c65c67 times as 641b03bbaa she made 5fa0593b4b the short 7afc0b6afb walk across 3650d6c65f the room, edcc857851 but she 2a8b150404 did her 6ae34af05c best to c03a857e84 hide any cbbdfab261 signs of b7ed690d1a struggle.e9413f3d6ceea49f

After the water was 3bd8f378b1 boiled, she poured the bf21bd1586 coffee mix into a c59113a76a cup and poured the 8bd1421eeb hot water inside. How much should she 27c339231e put in? She eyeballed it 02f1be01a4 and poured it 529d68ef6a all at once, 0ea4fd17e2 thinking it was 6d6b881358 just like a 809d803944 hot Americano at a8f7ece181 a cafe. The color was a ae06b688d4 little lighter than the 9daf53fe22 coffee from a vending 1abf46adaa machine, but it didn’t f07dce76f6 look bad.8984276e70f4683b
