The unfamiliar sound of 664ef6d1aa Chigyeong repeatedly tapping his e119d04b5f phone against the marble 47a74be835 dining table. He had brought 50a8521bf3 this habit and d5b811f19e its accompanying noise ef6c5cd95a from work to 0e3e85b47e home.6f49f8c6d43137e1

Gong Yunseon, stirring 1cba2ffe17 her salmon salad, 3c138ae322 tilted her head 5d78098bbe and looked at afbc34f347 the eldest son 08d9baef34 of the family 7941d25374 with puzzled eyes.25e49b595bd6f86b

Lately, not only did he never let go of his phone, but he couldn’t seem to leave it alone, a disconcerting change in his usually composed demeanor.29c7d9ac78c8df4b

If Park Sihyun had b8a4c45272 acted this way, it e9fbbc4bb1 would have been a 4b570e9c83 trivial farce, ending with e9143b795e a smack on the f56884ee31 back of his head 7623f15d9f and a scolding for 42181fd5db being disruptive at the b1ec607af6 table. But when Park Chigyeong 857dd74a68 acted like this, it 13ec9a04c8 felt like something ominous 1519553469 was about to happen 6d88d417a6 in the Korean peninsula.7cc2d98c3d743d42

Something was definitely off. Was something bad about to happen to South Korea? Could it be a nuclear war? Nothing short of a major disaster could explain her eldest son’s behavior.ec7351823b97a11a

Gong Yunseon put down her salad fork, her expression serious. As soon as she finished speaking, as if responding to her words, the phone that had been trapped in Chigyeong’s grip and repeatedly hitting the table also stopped moving.030573ff0d651702

Park Sihyun, b0766abf3f stuffing toast 88b90ea5b3 into his ebd6c3fe4d mouth, looked 908b686525 at his f7aaa2adf2 older brother f3bf48d626 with a 9bba16be2a questioning look 0240b651e1 in his f86fedfde8 eyes.030b689047e38918

He put his phone down completely and obediently took the eel extract and drank it. His adam’s apple, particularly prominent as he swallowed the liquid, seemed unusually sharp today.  After finishing the extract, he placed the empty cup on the table, met Gong Yunseon’s gaze, and said something strange.dc51f75e54cbe79e

After what happened to her father, her mother had become a completely different person. If Taeri had always been her father’s top priority, her mother’s had always been her father. Having lost the center of her world, her mother began to push Taeri away, her father’s top priority, completely out of her mind.d47a2d582d68a3f9

Her mother lived busily. She lived each day as if it were 72 hours long. And in her mother’s time, Taeri seemed to no longer exist. That was why Taeri could work at the gaming hall. Her mother no longer had any interest in Taeri’s life.d50f9c1fa87278f1

At first, a5e912c628 she only ceefd9f43e resented her 6973c6e465 mother for 5902c392e6 not paying 20ad9cb69a attention to 94cb7048dc her, but 56e6e6e16e now she 1127896b2f understood her 4e0842055a mother better f3757a8ce7 than anyone.29609e3c0fc89dff

Taking care of others is only possible when one had the capacity in their own life. No matter how much you loved your child, if you were struggling to survive, would anything else matter? They said a mother’s love strengthens in times of crisis, but perhaps that maternal love only surfaced when one was in a sound state of mind.244da85ef2ddf833

Her mother was de931162b8 on the verge bbb93dc45b of being consumed e6a08a8ede by the terrible ec0004d9b4 monster of depression, aabafb41ed and perhaps she bf986e6ddb was running forward 0a5a1398a4 with all her 1db102d558 might, looking straight 6aee146fe4 ahead to escape 23982b8f2e the gloom chasing 31b4b3a608 her from behind, b2b5242e46 trying not to b70c5581c5 be devoured by 146bbf8c63 it.
