“Why is everyone coming to visit me?”
Sukjae wrinkled his face when he saw his son .
Jaegun answered as he put down the box of juice
“Eat one after you eat food . ’
“Why did you buy so much? I have so much to eat . It’s better to move . Do you think I can stand up because I’m so full . ”
“Dad, what are you talking about . You can’t even walk yet . Ah, you know you like it . I know you listened to the radio yesterday . ”
“Stop talking about useless things . You and your mom forced a sleeping person to listen . Ugh so irritating . I can’t see the TV . Move . ”
Jaegun moved while smiling slightly .
Sukjae was looking at TV show that he never watched . Jaeyn laughed at that .
“Ah, I need to go home . I need to bring dad’s clothes . ”
“I’ll go . You stay . ”
“Just go together ok?”
Sukjae said, but the two siblings didn’t respond . Jaegun went outside, and Jaeyn started to cut an apple
“Is that your son?”
A woman in her 50s asked from beside .
She was another patient like Sukjae who had one leg fractured . She came here a lot and chatted a lot .
“Yes . ”
Sukjae just looked at her slightly to be polite . He had no intention of trying to talk with her . She talked to him, but they were all statements bragging about her family
“You know, the economy isn’t very good… it’s hard to get a job . ”
He already knew about the things she talked about . She thought Jaegun was unemployed . He knew because of experience .
Sukjae didn’t respond and only looked at the TV . But the woman, like always, was continuing .
“But then, my son is pretty lucky . When he graduated, he went into HG, and he’s staying there well for three years . It’s hard to even to get into such a big company, but it’s harder to survive there . I’m proud but really worried . ”
“I see . ”
Sukjae responded dryly . It was her power to talk about things without anyone to talk to .
Then she even asked him a question .
“How old is your son?”
“He’s 28 . ”
“Ah, I see . He’s one year younger than my song . Then he’s not a student . Sigh, it’s hard to live . I don’t know when the economy is going to get better . ”
Sukjae stayed silent, but Jaeyn was different .
She answered while cutting the apples .
“I see . My brother is a writer, so good thing it doesn't affect him that much . ”
“Writer? A novelist?”
“Yes . ”
The woman sighed heavily .
“An amazing thing . Sigh, a writer is a hard job to live unless your a top one . Isn’t it?”
Jaeyn knew that she was slightly insulting her
Listening, her words were very insensitive
“As my son, I think his salary is about 50,000? I mean that’s good enough since he’s alone . How much is your brother’s salary? Nothing else but… haha, I’m curious of what young people make . I don’t know if my son is earning well . Is 50,000 enough?”
“I don’t know . My brother earns about 2 million . ”
The woman’s smiling face froze .
Jaeyn gave an apple to Sukjae .
“2 million… . ? His salary is … 2 million?”
“Not salary, but monthly . ”
“Mo, monthly…?”
“He’s a writer, so it’s a bit awkward to say salary . Seeing the money that comes in from the projects every month, it’s about that much . I’ll be back after seeing a nurse .
Jaeyn left answering like it was nothing .
To the shocked woman, Sukaje asked while giving his apple dish .
“Do you want one?”
TL - REKTTTTTTTED!!!!!

“I brought all the clothes, ah yes . ”
Jaegun turned around as he was about to leave the house .
He was about to bring a few books for his dad .
‘I’ve haven’t been in here in awhile . '
It was his dad’s study and his storage room . Since he wasn’t in a good relationship with his dad, he wasn’t here for a few years .
There were so many things in one corner .
In one wall, books were stacked up to the ceiling .
They were all his dad’s book .
‘Wow, my dad read Japanese novels?’
Jaegun pulled up a book in interest .
As he looked at the book, he leaned against a wall .
But it wasn’t a wall but was a pile of books .
“ACKK!”
The books fell apart .
When Jaegun moved his arms from his eyes, the room was filled with books .
“To make this mistake…”
He bent to lift up the books .
He saw a box that was hidden in a corner .
The box was open .
“ . . . !”
Seeing the things inside the box, Jaegun froze in place .
