    A peaceful day (2)



    The next day, Dayeon was very excited.

    He held my hand and led me like a dog going for a walk.

    “This is my first time riding a public bus!”

    “so do i.”

    We met in front of the school, went to the terminal, and bought tickets to Gangwon-do.

    Dayeon, I, and Kim Tae-o wore masks.

    The faces of the three of us attract too much aggro…

    Of course, Park Ji-hoon doesn’t need to do that.

    “Isn’t it hot?”

    “Should I show my face? It’ll probably get hotter with all the people crowding around?”

    I don’t know if my body is small or the suitcase is big, but I dragged the suitcase and sat down on the chair.

    “Sister, would you like some coffee?”

    After seeing the cafe Minji was looking at, I gave her my check card.

    “Buy six.”

    “Hey… I have money too?!”

    “Buy it.”

    “yes.”

    Minji and Junsu headed to the cafe, and after a while, Minji naturally bought drinks according to their taste.

    Sweet drink fine me, Jihoon, Minji.

    And Dayeon, Taeo, and Junsu were split in half with Americano Parrots.

    Even though we cover our faces and wear ordinary clothes, we are cute, so it is inevitable that attention will be drawn to us.

    We started our trip feeling like we were stepping outside the fence, and it felt quite freeing.

    Of course, there are bodyguards following us out of sight… but that’s about it.

    This time, Dayeon’s wishes were met, and we planned the trip in a way that excluded Luxury Rugja.

    As soon as the bus arrived, Tae-oh Kim and Ji-hoon Park helped us load our luggage and we boarded the bus.

    Dayeon liked the window, so we let her sit inside, and when she saw her expression, she was refreshed and smiling.

    “Da-yeon.”

    “huh?”

    “Come to work.”

    I applied sunscreen to Dayeon, who was showing her face.

    The bus started to run for a while, and before I knew it, the surrounding scenery had all changed to mountains.

    Dayeon looks at her surroundings with sparkling eyes.

    Dayeon, who studied the rural landscape in books, would have been amazed.

    Actually, even when I went to Lee Ki-seok’s house, Dayeon really enjoyed walking in places where no buildings were visible or riding a horse around in the meadow.

    “Do you want to go visit my grandfather this summer?”

    “Grandpa Siyuni?!”

    “huh.”

    “Shall we go!!”

    At that time, Park Ji-hoon tapped my head from behind.

    “we are?”

    “Anyone can except you.”

    “What the hell? I’m going to call you eventually.”

    “Pass the snacks. I saw you taking the mustache snacks.”

    “…..It’s mine.”

    “What do you mean, it’s mine?”

    In the end, Park Ji-hoon gave me the mustache snack.

    I munched on snacks with Dayeon and enjoyed the surrounding scenery.

    We got off the bus, bought a cooler and some ice, and waited for the old man at the guest house.

    Grandpa came to pick us up.

    The bed and breakfast we arrived at after loading our bags was poorer than we expected.

    bed? Of course, there was nothing like that, and it was fortunate that the bathroom was in good condition.

    How long has it been since you slept on the floor with a blanket…

    Contrary to the poor facilities, we were excited.

    Because it was a place run by grandmothers and grandfathers, I took off my mask and walked around wearing only round-rimmed glasses.

    “Grandma~”

    “Why did you call me!”

    “Pots, feeders, ssamjang. . . . .”

    I took Park Ji-hoon and Kim Tae-oh with me and bought various ingredients, starting with a frying pan.

    I thought it was a good idea to save some cash for today.

    I held up the completed fish trap and spoke to Jihoon Park.

    “Hey Jihoon, throw it by the river and come back.”

    Dayeon looked at me with sparkling eyes.

    “Have you been to Siyuna Valley many times?”

    “My grandfather and grandmother live in the countryside.”

    “really?!”

    “huh.”

    And when we went down to the pavilion we rented, it turned out to be better than we expected.

    As we settled down in the pavilion, a handsome old man came and cut me in half a watermelon and gave it to me.

    “”thank you!””

    “Are you guys on a trip by yourself?”

    “yes!”

    The grandfather smiled at Minji, who answered confidently.

    “It’s nice to see that kids these days seem to be having fun.“

    “Thank you~”

    We were empty stomachs, so we looked at the menu to find a quick meal.

    “I’d like to give you chicken stew and goat stew, please.”

    “…Wouldn’t that be too much?”

    “Those two eat a lot.”

    At the place I pointed to, Kim Tae-oh and Park Ji-hoon, who had already changed into swimsuits, were wearing swimming goggles.

    Both said it was their first time in the countryside.

    Park Ji-hoon, like me, seemed excited because he was reminded of the past and as if I liked the countryside.

    Kim Tae-oh and Park Ji-hoon’s bodies were enough to catch Min-ji’s eye.

    Junsu came out late and looked at his stomach.

    It’s cute to see your belly fat fluttering after a long time.

    Even though I’m not good at difficult dishes, I think I’m very good at simple dishes.

    There is country jjambap.

    Dayeon and Minji were amazed at the sight of them making flower salad using watermelon peels.

    “Watermelon is so delicious.”

    “oh my god…”

    Before I knew it, the grandfather brought food.

    “It’s deep out there, so don’t go there.”

    “How deep is it?”

    “Take about 3 medas~ It’s dangerous.”

    Minji was the only one here who couldn’t swim, but it was a bit of a stretch to tell my grandfather who was worried about us.

    “Yes, I will tell you.”

    “I’ll leave a pot of rice here, so if you don’t have enough, you can take it and eat it.”

    “Thank you~”

    Minji soon approached those who were enjoying swimming.

    Jihoon Park excitedly ran towards me and said.

    “It’s awesome, there are so many fish and I think you’ll like it.”

    “really?”

    For Park Ji-hoon to say something like that, I think it’s quite acceptable.

    I didn’t plan on going in the water today during my 3-day, 2-night trip, but I’ll have to make that change.

    Before we knew it, a generous amount of food had been prepared,

    Maybe it’s because I don’t like spicy food, but the chicken stew was mediocre, but the goat stew was amazing.

    I’ve never eaten goat in Korea before, so I didn’t expect it to be this good.

    “Wow… it’s really delicious.”

    Park Ji-hoon likes chicken, so he started to finish the chicken stir-fry soup almost by himself, and the speed of reduction was similar to that of the goat soup eaten by 5 people.

    Jihoon is satisfied after eating the rice thoroughly.

    I started to sip on the flower salad I had made for dessert.

    “Hey, muscle pig, take out the pot.”

    “Muscle pig..? I must be clear. Oki.”

    It’s obviously meant as an insult, but I like Park Jihoon… he’s also an asshole.

    I went down to the water with a small knife and a pot, and Jihoon Park brought a fish trap.

    Dayeon came to my side.

    I rinsed the top of the large stone with water and cleaned the small fish.

    Usually small fish are picked by hand, but I was comfortable with a knife.

    Quake quake quake.

    Park Ji-hoon tried to help, but when I gestured for him to go away and play, he went to play with Tae-o, Jun-su, and Min-ji.

    Their mission was to search for things to enjoy non-stop for three days and two nights.

    Dayeon was looking at the fish with round eyes.

    “Do you want to try?”

    “huh!”

    I held one and explained the order step by step.

    Dayeon was quite good at handling fish, unlike most kids in the city.

    “Oh… are you good at it?”

    “I want to be as good as Siyuni…”

    “Ah, if you want to do it like me, you have to hold it every day. You have to go on a deep-sea fishing boat somewhere or something.”

    After we finished cleaning, we picked up the bowl, rinsed the fish, and placed it on a paper towel to remove any moisture.

    “When are you going to eat?”

    “I’m going to fry it for dinner.”

    “looks delicious…”

    “Yes, you can eat freshwater fish like this with the bones.”

    “Really~?”

    Minji said excitedly as the group approached from afar.

    “Sister, there are a lot of dragonflies over there!”

    “Bedtime? Grilled food is delicious.”

    “…yes?”

    “Aha, it’s just a joke.”

    But it’s really delicious, along with the cicadas.

    I didn’t say more because I was afraid I would look like a barbarian or Bear Grylls.

    We went back to the hotel and got ready to swim.

    “Wow… Your body is amazing…”

    As I was taking off my earrings, Minji saw my abs and poked me with her finger.

    And then Dayeon pinched my stomach with both hands.

    “I’m not supposed to be like this…”

    Dayeon, who works out a lot like me, had a cute belly that I wanted to pinch and a glimpse of her 11-figure abs.

    “Wow… Your bodies… Wow… I almost got a nosebleed.”

    Minji especially couldn’t take her eyes off Dayeon.

    Dayeon and I wore rash guards and shorts swimsuits.

    Then, I applied sunscreen and mince to the exposed skin.

    People who had never seen me and Dayeon’s grown bodies could not take their eyes off them.

    I laughed and went into the water with Dayeon.

    As I put on my swimming goggles and went into the deep water, I realized what Park Ji-hoon was talking about.

    There were so many fish in the emerald water that you couldn’t believe it was a valley.

    There were a lot of bigger fish than I thought, so I thought it would be fun to fish, so I looked around in the deep water and came up.

    Junsu and Minji could not keep their mouths shut.

    “…?”

    “”Nonsense!””

    My diving skills, which Dayeon, Kim Tae-oh, and Park Ji-hoon took for granted, were enough to shock them when they first saw them.

    “It’s been over 10 minutes!?”

    Dayeon smiled and stroked Minji’s head.

    “Didn’t you see Siyuni diving on YouTube?”

    “Huh? Is there something like that?”

    “I’m not interested in our city’s Yuni~”

    Minji operated her cell phone in a waterproof pack, and Junsu watched from the side.

    “wow…”

    I said to Dayeon as I came up to the shallow water.

    “There are so many fish, the water is so pretty.”

    “really?”

    “Yes, please go in.”

    As I was swimming with Dayeon, smiling brightly, Jihoon Park dived from the high rock I had seen earlier.

    Everyone was so excited about playing in the water that they lost track of time.

    After playing for a while, I walked to the pavilion while shaking off the moisture from my head to have dinner.

    The frying batter, oil, and frying pan I bought in advance.

    Before I knew it, Dayeon came up from the water and helped me like an assistant chef.

    Dayeon boiled ramen, and I fried freshwater fish and made dinner.

    After playing to their heart’s content, those who came up smelling the smell began to prepare the table.

    As expected in the past, the fried freshwater fish is amazing.

    “Wow… it’s so delicious.”

    “If you eat a lot, you may get nauseous.”

    “sister…”

    “huh?”

    “I’m happy…”

    “Ahaha”

    I am proud to see that everyone is smiling and having fun.

    Before it got dark, we laid out blankets and put up mosquito nets in the pavilion in front of the accommodation.

    After putting various snacks inside, I put in an additional blanket and started cleaning up the slightly messy pavilion.

    After everyone finished showering and changed into comfortable clothes, they went into the pavilion covered with mosquito nets and turned on the lights. Only the faint light that illuminated the mosquito net came in in the darkness.

    Dayeon is smiling and wiggling her toes.

    The coolness of the rain falling drop by drop added to the atmosphere.

    Park Ji-hoon entered the mosquito net for the last time and thoroughly locked the entrance to prevent insects from entering the net.

    “Hehehe… It’s going to rain… A scary story is inevitable…”

    “…Siyuna?”

    Dayeon is enjoying the atmosphere, but suddenly looks scared.

    “Wouldn’t it be okay if I didn’t…?”

    When I looked at Dayeon, she looked like she would just go back to her room if I told her a scary story.

    As soon as she heard the words ‘scary story’, Dayeon began to look at the dark surroundings with a frightened expression.

    “I’m here, don’t worry~”

    “huh.”

    With Dayeon’s expression softening again, we started playing the game Minji and Junsu taught us.

    The feeling of playing games while eating snacks and drinks in a pavilion filled with the sound of rain getting stronger in the dark was a new kind of healing that cannot be enjoyed in the city.

    Leaving those people enthusiastic about the game, Dayeon and I lay down under the blanket and looked at the ceiling.

    Sooo…

    “how is it?”

    “It gives me goosebumps…”

    “me too.”

    This is a situation that literally gives me goosebumps and healing.

    If you sleep like this, you will realize reality because the blanket has become soggy due to the humidity, but before that, you can go back to your room.

    Lying down and eating a pile of snacks… wouldn’t this be paradise?

    I thought about going to bed for a moment due to the sudden drowsiness, but then Minji came up between me and Dayeon.

    “What are you doing?”

    “Try lying down.”

    “and…”

    Sooow

    The sound of cool rain and the wind passing by my face makes me fall asleep.

    “Should I just sleep here?”

    “huh.”

    “yes.”

    I fell asleep right before I finished speaking.

    “Pishuuuu…”
