Dohyun Kim

After the graduation ceremony, I approached Sejin with the children.

While congratulating Se-jin with a bouquet of flowers, Se-jin’s mother and her older brother, a soldier whom she met on Jeju Island during summer vacation, are also present, but Kim Dae-chan’s son is nowhere to be seen.

They even kicked them out of the house, but it seems they didn’t even come to the graduation ceremony.

My mother said thank you and offered to treat everyone to a meal, so we ate together at a nearby Chinese restaurant.

After the meal, the mother and older brother go home first, and Se-jin insists that the children take a tour of the building, so they go to Gangnam with the children and say that they are going to meet their friends in the evening.

“Are you really not going with me?”

“Because the teacher has a schedule. Are you going to go and see something?”

“My sister buys clothes from the clothing store in the building.”

“I said that my senior would buy me shoes.”

“Sejin, you can’t spend money like that because you have a lot of money.”

“We didn’t ask you to buy it first.”

“Thank you for taking the time to come to celebrate even though everyone is on vacation. Oh, and of course the teacher too. Can I buy you one too?”

“it’s okay. You guys, don’t bother Sejin too much and go watch it in moderation.”

“Yes.”

“Sam, don’t forget to go skiing together next Wednesday.”

“It’s mid-February soon, and they say there’s snow? It hasn’t snowed lately.”

“There are many people from Seoul but Gangwon-do.”

“that’s right. They say it snows there even in March.”

“The website also said it would be open until the end of February.”

I tried to get out, but I couldn’t.

“I get it. Be careful, everyone.”

I broke up with the kids and got into the car.

The destination is school.

On my way there, I saw that earlier, the cars were parked all the way outside the school, but now there are only a few cars.

I parked and headed to the middle school building, not the dormitory.

It was my first time in middle school, but fortunately the structure was not that different from high school, so I was able to find the administrative office right away without wandering.

When I opened the door and entered, the administrative office was completely the same as the high school.

“How did you come… uh? Aren’t you Mr. Kang Shin-hyeok?”

Since it went up and down a lot in the media, he recognized me at a glance, so I said hello and said that I had come to make a donation.

“A donation?”

“Yes. Sejin donated to high school, so I thought it would be nice to do it to middle school.”

Earlier, when I saw Sejin receiving an award for donating, a good idea came to my mind.

I became possessed two years before the original work began, and now that a year has passed, the main characters are still in middle school this year.

It is possible to rotate work between high school and middle school, but new teachers with less than two years of experience cannot apply.

Therefore, I have to wait another year to meet the main character, but there is a way for me to approach it first.

Of course, Lee Ji-sung possessed a year later at the high school entrance ceremony and changed his identity, so there is no meaning in building friendships in advance.

But another main character, Kim Do-hyun, is originally from this world.

Coincidentally, Kim Do-hyun’s family is in a very bad family situation, unlike Ji-seong Lee, the third generation of a conglomerate.

My father passed away when I was young, so I am a single parent family raising Kim Do-hyun and my younger brother alone.

Originally, the debt of a deceased person may not be inherited by a family member due to limited approval or refusal of inheritance, but in the original work, the main character’s mother did not know such a thing, so it was set up that she took it as it is.

Of course, Kim Do-hyun is as active as Lee Ji-sung, so he will live well later, but now he is poor.

“Usually, the manager does the donation work himself, but today the manager didn’t come to work because he was away… .”

He said that the day he went was market day.

“Chief Shim, I think I can do it because I helped the manager before. There is also a form.”

“Yes? Then the kite manager will help you.”

I thought I had to come back next time, but I’m glad I did.

“Sit over here. I’ll pick up the deposit slip right away.”

“Yes.”

“Hey, would you like a cup of tea? There is coffee, green tea and black tea.”

“Anything is fine. thank you.”

After waiting for a while, they bring green tea and cookies that I didn’t even say before.

It’s my first time to donate, so I’m writing a deposit form for the first time, but I was able to write it quickly because he explained it in detail.

“I wrote everything down.”

The amount is 500 million won, and for the purpose of use, it is written to ask for support for students with poor home environments, such as Sejin, for support for school supplies and other items necessary for classes, and for personal expenses such as retreats and school trips.

“I-over there… Did you use the right amount?”

Too little though?

Sejin, a student, also donated 2 billion won, so I think it’s a bit small, but 500 million is by no means a small amount… .

I think it’s a bit too much.

“In addition to donations, I am thinking of helping students who need help personally… .”

“Yes? Hey, I think you misunderstood… I didn’t mean it was small, but it was too big, so I asked again.”

“Ah, this is fine. Then, can I deposit it now?”

“Yes? Ah yes.”

I sent the money directly to the bank app.

“I sent.”

“Yes. Wait. Oh, it’s confirmed. I will issue a donation receipt right away.”

“I’m sorry to bother you, but could you fax it to me?’

When I bought the building this time, I signed a contract with a tax office to handle taxes, and I remembered that the tax accountant asked me to send a receipt when I make a donation.

“Yes. It’s not cumbersome at all.”

“thank you.”

“You’re welcome. I think the way students think is really cool.”

Since I am a donor, there may be things like that, but it seems that the teachers in the administrative office here are just as kind as the teachers in the administrative office at our school.

“Hey, and as I said before, personally, I want to help a student with a difficult family situation… Can I get some help?”

“What kind of personal help… .”

“I had an acquaintance who worked as a middle school teacher, so I heard about it briefly. A student named Kim Do-hyun had a good class attitude and good grades, but the home environment was very bad… Could I get the contact information or address of the student’s parents?”

“ah… Well, it’s a bit difficult to see that part because it’s personal information… .”

Privacy… . Oh, I hadn’t thought of that at all.

Oops, I even donated at best, but is it in vain?

“Just because that student also learns swordsmanship, I have no other intentions and I really just want to help… How can I not?”

“Then could you give me your teacher’s contact number?”

“My contact information?”

“We can’t tell you directly, but I thought it would be okay to talk to the mother of student Kim Do-hyun and tell her the situation and ask her to call Mr. Kang’s phone number if it’s okay.”

I thought it was fortunate, gave the number and left the administrative office.

I hope to hear from you soon.

“Mi-jeong, the team leader told me to come to the office?”

“Are you the boss? Maybe because of… .”

“How do I know that? It looked bad, but I delivered it anyway.”

After changing my clothes and going up to the office, the team leader is frowning.

“Yoon Mi-jung. A claim came in from the building you cleaned today.”

“Yes? What claims… .”

“Are you acting now? I heard that Mrs. Park also saw Mi-jeong arguing with a woman in the women’s bathroom during the day.”

“uh… It was because a lady fell on her own and insisted that she fell because I was slippery because of cleaning… .”

“No, Mi-jeong, if someone falls down, isn’t it first to check if they’re okay? And even if the person who fell over is a little pushy, it’s over if he just apologizes and moves on. A person who is old enough to eat.”

“I am really sorry. At that time, I hadn’t even started cleaning the floor and was in the middle of sorting out the garbage, but they kept swearing at me saying it was because of me, so I just told them not to do it… .”

“So now you are not doing anything wrong? Sigh… Mi-jeong, do you know who the woman is? I am the daughter of the building owner.”

“I-I didn’t know.”

“Today, the landlord called and said that he would change the company to use such a rude employee who didn’t say that his daughter fell down and didn’t say that he was okay, staring blankly and not a word of apology. How are you going to take responsibility?”

“crime… sorry.”

“I’m sorry, it’s Nabal, how are you going to take responsibility?”

“I will go and apologize… .”

“Hey, where are you going and how are you going to meet me? Would they be willing to meet someone like Mi-Jung? Okay, just don’t go to work tomorrow.”

“No, chief… .”

“If you don’t hire Mi-jeong, you say you’ll change the company, but there’s nothing you can do about it. The work I did will go into the next payday, so I know that and leave.”

“T-Chief… Please take a look. I will never do anything like that again… .”

“Come on? I said I couldn’t help it either. get out quickly I have to go to work.”

I knelt down to my knees to ejaculate, but the team leader sighed deeply and left the office.

It’s really unfortunate.

I found this job with great difficulty, but I am at a loss as to how to find one, and I feel like crying.

My kids are getting bigger and I still haven’t paid half of my debt… .

thud-.

“Ah, Ms. Mijeong… Doesn’t that really make a difference here? You know that our company is also a small business. Get out quickly.”

The door opened and the team leader came in again, so I expected it for a while… .

“Yes… . All right.”

I packed my things and headed to the bus stop.

I tried not to think of it because it was useless and my mind was weak, but I remember my husband who left first.

I thought I was going to leave behind a lot of debt like this, but I shouldn’t say that I’m responsible for everything.

It would have been better than now if I had finished college without dropping out after giving birth to Do-hyun… .

“Ajumma, if you’re not going to ride, get out of the way.”

“Oh, sorry.”

I was sitting on a bus seat and was about to enter a job site when the phone rang.

“Yes, Yeonji.”

―Mom, I came home. When will you come?

“Mom, I just got on the bus. brother is? Aren’t you at home?”

-yes. i don’t have a brother

“okay. I’ll be there in about an hour and a half, so keep an eye on the house.”

-Yes, come quickly.

You shouldn’t have a weak heart, even for the sake of the children… .

I’m trying to access a job site, but I feel a vibration in my arms again.

“Yeongji, mom says she’s on the bus now.”

―Hey, isn’t that the number of Kim Do-hyun’s mother?

I thought Yeonji was calling again, so I answered without checking, but now I see that it is an unknown number.

“I misunderstood the person. Yes, that’s right. Where are you?”

―My name is Yeon Ji-hye and I work in the administrative office of Hunter 1 School Middle School, where my son is attending. Can I talk to you for a minute?

“School? yes, that’s fine What is it for?”

―It’s not different, there is a teacher named Kang Shin-hyeok in the high school department of our school.

“Our Dohyeon is a middle school student, but why does the high school teacher… Voice phishing by any chance?”

―Oh, mother, it’s not like that. If you are concerned, you can check by calling the administrative office number on the school website.

I don’t think it’s voice phishing, seeing as you say this… .

“Sorry for doubting you.”

-it’s okay. I should have explained more in detail from the beginning, sorry. Teacher Kang Shin-hyeok said there was a junior who worked at our school, and he heard the story of Dohyeon from his junior.

“ah… I see.”

―But now, legally, things like home addresses and parents’ mobile phone numbers are personal information, so we couldn’t tell them directly, so we called my mother.

“Ah yes. Hey, but what help… ?”

-well. I don’t know the details, as I’m not myself, but I hope it’s helpful to my mother and student Dohyeon, but I don’t think it’s harmful. Teacher Kang Shin-hyeok is a good person. He was also the leader of Sejin, who won the WHCU this time, so he appeared often in the news. Haven’t you heard his name?

“I don’t watch TV much… .”

-ah… There are many articles, but if you search on the portal, they will appear right away. You donated 500 million won to our middle school today. He cares about his students a lot, he has the ability, he has a lot of money and he has a very handsome face… Oh, I’ve been talking too long. How would you like to make a call?

“uh… So, are you going to change it right now?”

-no. Mr. Kang isn’t home and we got Mr. Kang Shin-hyeok’s number. I can tell my mother, or if it’s a little too much for my mother to call first, I’m going to give teacher Kang Shin-hyeok my mother’s number. What should I do?

“Hey, then, if you give me the number of that Kang Shin-hyeok, I will call you.”

-Yes. Then I’ll text you to the number you’re calling now.

“Yes. thank you.”

After hanging up the phone, I got a text message shortly after.

He said he would contact me directly, but honestly, I’m worried if I can really do it.

Of course, it’s not because of anything like pride.

When I was left with the kids, I threw away all those feelings.

The school staff said that the teacher named Kang Shin-hyeok, who was helping us this time, was a really good person, but I don’t understand why he would help us, who we don’t even know, just because he heard bad things from juniors.

In fact, there were quite a few people who approached me to help after my children’s father passed away.

At first, everyone approached me saying that they wanted to help innocently, but they all had different thoughts.

My husband’s relatives, who told me to rely on them, cut off contact with me and stopped coming to me after learning that the debts the father of the children left behind were far greater than the insurance money.

My friend, who had come to the funeral, also visited the house several times after the funeral, bought me fruit and chicken, and even played with the kids.

I realized through experiencing such things.

That there is no such thing as pure kindness in the world.

After thinking about it for almost an hour until I got home, I finally entered the number and saved it.

[Teacher Kang Shin-hyeok 010-6XXX-8XXX]

This person may have other intentions like the people I’ve experienced before, but I can’t even try thinking of the kids in the yard where I lost my job.

With a feeling of grabbing at least a straw, I pressed the call button.
