6 – Dinner Together

After we finished the ice cream, we stopped at the crossroads to go our separate ways.

From here, if you go to the left, you will see the apartment where Kim Soo-bin lives, and if you go to the right, you will see the apartment where me and Han Yuna live. Most of the final destinations that these three arrive after playing together are here.

“Then see you tomorrow.”

“Goodbye, Subin.”

“Go in carefully.”

Kim Soo-bin greeted us with her brown bobbed hair and her hands waving together like her tail and then left. The rest of us decided to stand in front of the traffic light without saying anything and wait for the color of the light to change.

“Park Si-yoon, are you going home right away?”

“Then where am I going?”

The moment the red light turned green, Hanyu Na, who was one head smaller than me, looked up at me and asked where I was going. Her teeth bouncing from her seat for no reason resemble the mushroom monsters from the RPG games I played when I was little.

“Then let’s stop by your house together. My aunt told me to take it, saying that she just made it through a chat.”

“Yusan-seul?”

Tilt your head to the side while repeating random words.

For reference, the aunt Yuna Han refers to is my mother. This is because the titles developed naturally because they were so close to each other. Anyway, I’m Hanyu, and I just call her mother her aunt, but she says it.

Anyway, Yoo San-seul, her mother said that she did everything else. In case someone isn’t a collector of cooking licenses, sometimes food that doesn’t seem like something you would cook at home pops up.

So you don’t like it? Of course good. I assure you, the only place where you can eat a full course Chinese restaurant made by your mother at home is only in my house. Even the taste is no less than selling it.

The reason why the corner of Hanyu’s mouth is hanging in her ear right now is probably because she knows my mother’s culinary skills as much as I do. Perhaps, in his head, he is already picturing himself inhaling lactobacillus.

“Yunsanseul, after all, my aunt is the best. When I get home, I have to eat rice right away.”

“Do I really need to go home to eat? Just eat at my house and go?”

Hanyu, fed up with her happiness, she listened to my self-talk with a bitter smile, and then, thinking that it was necessary to take it home, she suggested it. That would also be the case, because my dad would come home late anyway, so it would be just me and my mom to eat, so I thought it would be better if there was at least one more seat filled.

Oh, but if you think about it, dinner will be in full swing at Yuna Han’s house, so it’s a bit strange to eat at my house without being involved in it. It was the moment when she was about to realize belatedly that her thoughts were short after spitting out her words.

Before we knew it, like the lights of a traffic light that had turned red as we crossed, Hanyu went out and opened her mouth as if she had remembered an idea.

“Ah! Then, should I just bring yusanseul home and eat it at your place?”

“… If that’s the case, I’d rather just eat at your house.”

It must have been a compromise in its own way, but it was absurd to me, so I replied in a voice that made me feel despondent.

No, if that’s the case, there’s no reason to eat at my house. I mean, if you’re going to eat anyway, you don’t have to bother crossing over once more, just eat at my house and take only the lactobacillus home. It fills the empty spot.

But Hanyu I mentioned a person’s name, showing off her pouting lips with her sulky expression and woodpecker cheekiness, as if there was a reason behind her name.

“If I take it home, Han Yu-jin, that crazy b*tch will eat it all up, right? In that case, it would be better to eat at your house.”

“Oh, I didn’t think of that.”

Come to think of it, there was Han Yu-jin in Han Yuna’s house. In terms of eating quality, she is a real exhaust mukbanger that even Han Yuna of the world can fold.

From the outside, she has a thin body similar to Han Yuna, but she eats so much of it that you don’t know where it goes. I’ve even seen her devour two pizzas in front of her eyes without exaggeration. Also in large size.

Anyway, he said, he doesn’t usually eat a lot, but when he sees food he’s drawn to, his eyes go round and he eats it. Bringing my mother’s handmade lactobacillus to that guy is like putting fish in front of a cat.

“Then let’s go eat. But did you contact your house in advance? “

“Whoops, I already did it.”

From noble mtl dot com

Hanyu Na shows off her V and chats with her aunt. There was a notice written on it that she would bring yusanseul and that she would eat at my house.

As expected, you act fast when it comes to eating. It is admirable.

“Auntie, I’m here!”

As soon as she arrived at my house, before I could tell her mother that I was back, she greeted me with a booming voice. If only her title for her mother had been slightly changed, she would be seen as a member of this family in the eyes of a third person.

Like that, Hanyu put me in the lead and approached her living room, and the sound of dishes spilling from her kitchen collided and stopped. Seeing that even the sound of her running water disappeared, it seems that her mother was washing the dishes.

“Is Yuna here? My daughter, it seems like it’s been a while since I’ve seen you?”

Unsurprisingly, my mother greeted me like a daughter who gave birth to her stomachache and smiled at me. It’s a sight that has become an everyday sight now, so it’s not new.

If I were to rank them in this house, I’d probably come in second after my father and mother, followed by me. Damn this.

“That’s it! How sad it was that I couldn’t see my aunt.”

“How sad my aunt was. Our Yuna, come here. Let’s hug for a while.”

Anyway, Hanyu approached her mother like a puppy that was called. He even hugged me.

No, you guys only meet in three days. Even four days ago, the three of us, including her aunt, went shopping and going out. But they’re filming a tearful drama like a reunion of separated families.

I didn’t want to intervene or stop it, so I passed the two people at once and headed to the table. After taking out a chair and sitting down in an empty seat, the two of them return to the table after a strong embrace.

I was about to grab my chopsticks, thinking that I could start eating now, but my mother held out a large plate on the bar and said,

“Son, would you like to bring this to Yuna’s house before we eat?”

“… Me?”

Mom, no mother? My son came back from her long-awaited arduous class and was trying to pick up a spoon, but she went on an errand. Shouldn’t Yuna Han go in the first place?

“Auntie, I can go….”

If she was normal, she would have gone straight to cheering me up and pissing me off. Even I saw how wrong this situation was when she said she would go and voiced her opinion.

However, our Mrs. Baek Mi-ryeong, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time — at most three days — probably didn’t want to part with her stepdaughter even for a moment. Wanted to send

“Ah, I want to talk with Yuna after a long time. Can you come over for a bit, son?”

“… Yes. What can I do?”

She was in her mid-40s, and her mother’s cute charms had taken a heavy toll on her mentally, so she decided not to listen to them more, but to just go back.

By the way, Mrs. Geo, you should do that in front of your father. Why don’t you know it doesn’t work for her son-in-law. Or, if my dad is my mom, he’s a pathetic wife, so he doesn’t even need aegyo. This was highly deceptive, damn it.

“So the practice goes well? I heard that the debut group will join soon?”

“Ah, nothing has been confirmed yet. Still, it seemed like it looked good on the joint stage last time.”

“Really? If the debut group is confirmed later, do I have to tell my aunt? You should get an autograph in advance.”

“My aunt is really, really far away.”

I was about to leave the front door with a bowl full of yusanseul, but a friendly conversation I heard from behind made me smile.

Somehow I have a blunt personality, so I don’t have much conversation with my mom at home, so I think Han Yuna, who is relatively friendly and has a good reaction, is happy when I come.

So at times like this, I feel grateful to Han Yuna. Being a conversation partner for her son, who is confined to her room at home, and her husband, who is always busy with work, are her conversation partners.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

After leaving the front door, approach the door of Yuna Han’s house opposite her and enter her password. In the past, I thought it was a bit like knowing the password no matter how close we are, but now we’re so used to it that we don’t have the slightest hesitation.

“Eh, why is oppa here? What about your sister?”

As soon as I opened the door and entered, Han Yu-jin, the younger sister of Han Yuna, who was in the living room, did not say hello to me, but asked me why I had come alone and where my sister was.

That’s what I want to ask. Why is it that I am Hanyu and I am at her house and Hanyu is at my house. How the hell did this cognitive dissonance happen?

“When did Siyoon come? Would you like to eat while you are here?”

“Oh, no. I have to go right away.”

The lady who heard my voice also appeared in her room and offered me a meal, but I politely declined and shook her hand.

In the first place, the daughter-in-law of this house is eating at my house, and if I go to eat at this house, isn’t the picture even weirder? I don’t know. Is my values weird, or is the relationship between my house and Han Yuna’s house unusual?

What’s certain is that it’s not an ordinary relationship. At least, I think it’s a much closer relationship than relatives you only see on holidays.
