episode_0197

There was a girl.

From a young age, she grew up with caring parents and a family that, although not great, was full of deficiencies.

Everyone who saw her expressed interest in her, and receiving confessions became a daily occurrence after entering middle school.

The first hardship in a life I thought would be smooth was the death of my parents.

Sudden traffic accident.

There were many people who approached her as she was left alone.

When she was still young, she entrusted her uncle to take care of her.

However, their goal was to collect the death insurance money left by her parents, and by the time she noticed, the money had already disappeared.

Unhappiness.

It was an obvious series of misfortunes.

It wasn’t just a story limited to her.

Because there are people everywhere in the world who suffer unknown misfortune.

She quickly stood up again.

Although she couldn’t find the insurance money, money wasn’t the only thing she had.

appearance.

A beautiful appearance that did not need any other rhetoric was worth more than money.

Everyone approached her, from her peers to rich elders, but she did not give in easily.

It was then.

“Yoo Seo-hee?”

“You…”

A man approached.

“Hello, this is Kihoon Han.”

Kihoon Han. As the eldest son of the chairman of Hanjin Group, he is, to put it simply, a golden spoon and a second-generation chaebol. He is a celebrity that no one knows.

There was once a rumor going around at the Bachelor’s too.

He even got married at a young age…

“Should I call you senior…?”

“It’s a drinking party, so you can speak comfortably. How about a drink?”

Contrary to his words, he was polite and polite.

“Well…”

As I trailed off, he smiled kindly and snapped his fingers.

“I will buy it.”

The waiter approached us as if we had already made an appointment.

Although I didn’t feel like it, I felt keenly how important personal connections are.

“Here it is.”

How many bottles of expensive liquor are there?

He took the bottle directly from the waiter and poured it into a glass.

‘…He was handsome.’

“Thank you…”

it’s good.

It was completely different from the convenience store liquor I had tried several times.

Rather than an astringent taste, I had the illusion that it tasted sweet and savory, so I quickly emptied a glass.

“It’s nice to see you drinking well.”

“Ah…”

My face got hot. It’s not that I don’t feel ashamed, though.

‘This… is high in alcohol.’

He continued to fill his glass, and the sweet liquor continued to flow.

‘If not now, when will I drink it…’

When I opened my eyes again, I was in a hotel room.

“Oh my god…”

I wasn’t young enough to know what was happening just by looking at the lightly colored red sheets and the man lying next to me.

And a drunken one-night stand at a bar.

Even with seniors who have already graduated.

One night’s mistake.

She tried to forget it and move on.

“Seohee. I will take responsibility.”

But he said he would take responsibility.

I’m not saying we want to get married, but as lovers.

A proposal to pay living expenses and meet occasionally.

It could be said to be a sponsorship, but the amount was large enough to turn her world upside down, as she was making a living through part-time work.

“If you need anything, just tell me.”

He always prepared only the best, and she also insisted on only the best in whatever she did.

As if adapting to him.

Time passed like that.

I was able to live a leisurely life without working, and I occasionally met him when he came home and made love.

But sometimes I had doubts.

Is this okay?

“us. How long will we live like this?”

“What do you mean?”

The man answered her question coldly.

As the relationship continued, the manners and consideration that had initially appeared disappeared.

“…No.”

“I won’t be able to come for a while. My son was begging me to participate in school events.”

“…Yes.”

Since when did it start? In the relationship between the two, she was a thorough Eul.

It was then.

“What should I do…”

That she was pregnant.

It was something she deserved to be blessed about, but not for her.

“Still…”

I have been living alone ever since my parents passed away.

“Maybe… I’ll be happy?”

As the relationship got longer, the kindness it felt at first diminished, but it was still that person’s child.

“Family…”

“Because you said you couldn’t come for a while…”

Wouldn’t it be better to see it in person?

“Baby. Dad… will be happy too, right?”

* *

“Erase!”

Those were the first words he spoke upon hearing the news.

“……How do you erase life…”

There was a lot I wanted to say, but what came out of my mouth was a ridiculous excuse.

You and me. It’s my child. It’s family!

I wanted to say that.

But if you speak up and are rejected.

Above all, the relationship wasn’t honorable enough to say such a thing.

“Ha…! okay. Then you can raise it yourself. I will send you plenty of living expenses.”

*

It was a daughter. Just like her before. A child so pretty that everyone compliments her on how pretty she is.

However, the child’s father never came to see her.

There was another woman, but she had no way of knowing.

“If you see that person even once…”

okay. You will love it once you see it.

After thinking about it, I made a call.

-I told you not to contact me.

“But it’s your child, just this once.”

-That’s not up to you!

Pop. The phone was disconnected.

“…It’s not my fault.”

“It’s not my fault…”

The child approached her as she sat on the floor and muttered.

“…Mom. Are you okay?”

She was a cute girl with black hair.

“…Go over there and play.”

“…….Yes.”

5 years old. The girl was so polite that it was hard to believe she was a child of that age.

As if he was used to the cold reception, he twisted his hair once and turned around. Even just before closing the door, he kept his gaze fixed on his mother as if he was worried about her.

A child who deserves to be loved by everyone. However, he did not receive any love from his parents.

*

Yoo Seo-hee. She was lying on the bed in the master bedroom, groaning and feeling like she was about to die. It was a spacious room, but the only things there were a dressing table and cosmetics, but looking at the liquor bottles rolling around on the floor, it was more cluttered than dirty.

“Ugh… the head…”

Suddenly, the door opened. The girl who carefully walked away from the bottle held out a cup.

“Mom. Here…”

“…what is it?”

“It’s honey water… I think you drank a lot…”

The child’s mother did not hide her annoyance.

“Ha. You… no… give it to me.”

“Yes!”

The child smiled brightly.

A child who is quick-witted and kind.

Even Seo Hee could figure out who was making me look at my daughter.

I tried to be careful not to do that, but it didn’t work out as well as I thought.

As time passed, her beauty faded, and she met her child’s father less and less often.

In this way, the mounting stress was resolved through waste and extravagance. Because I was able to forget all my worries the moment I spent money as I wanted.

The child tried.

I studied hard, got 100 points on the test, and always thought about not bothering my mom. However, Seohee thought that he also did not resemble her.

‘That person was like that too.’

You will change too, right?

No matter how hard the child tried, the catastrophe with Seo-hee, who had a closed mind and wore colored glasses, was predestined from the beginning.

“Is it a dream…”

Is it because I received a call not long ago?

-Serin will become independent soon.

He was Serin’s biological grandfather. Unlike before, his voice was much softer.

“Father…”

-Maybe we can meet.

*

“It’s today…”

The day Serin becomes independent.

When I think about it, Serin was the only one. A person who truly treated you like family.

‘My daughter.’

She headed to the officetel with an excited heart.

‘You might not want it, but…’

Let’s say it again and again.

Just like Serin did.

“What should I say.”

“I guess I should ask for forgiveness first…”

She looked forward to a future with her daughter.

Perhaps because I received psychiatric treatment, I was able to return to the positive self I had before meeting that man.

The moment she arrived at the door and was about to ring the bell.

“Is the door… open?”

The door was open, albeit slightly.

The chill seeping through the crack in the door made it difficult to imagine that anyone would be there.

She opened the door in shock, as if remembering something.

“Se, Serin!”

As if he had been wondering what to say when he met his daughter. The moment I entered the living room, a cold sensation as if my blood was freezing ran through my body.

Someone has fallen.

After being dazed for a moment, she ran like crazy.

Not someone.

It was Serin.

Serin was there.

“Serin… Mom… Mom is here.”

Between the living room and kitchen.

Seohee caressed the cheek of her dead daughter, who collapsed in front of her with a cold body that seemed to have been left unattended for hours. Only then did I feel death at my fingertips.

Seohee hugged her daughter, who had turned blue, and rubbed her face.

“Serin…”

An empty question was asked.

“My baby… I’m sorry mom…”

The voice that Serin had longed to hear echoed throughout the room.

“Are you upset because your mom is late?”

Tears flowed from her eyes.

“Mom… I’ll follow you too.”

The moment she sat down for a while and decided to die.

“Ha. Are you going to end it without even thinking about my mistakes?”

A voice that seemed to be shocked was heard.

Seohee didn’t even realize she heard someone’s voice and cried while hugging Serin.

Because of that, I didn’t notice until someone appeared in front of me.

“You are such a selfish soul that I can’t even think of you as the child’s mother.”

It was a voice that even conveyed contempt.

Seohee raised her head in surprise. Silver hair that shines pure white and gold eyes that sparkle yellow as if they can see through all ugliness. She was a girl with a mysterious aura that made it difficult to believe she was from this world.
