134 – Flower Viewing
On the evening news, a somehow familiar image of our neighborhood appeared.
Although the content was a bit vague, news was coming out that it had come to an end.
“I guess they caught the rapist.”
“Whew…I feel better now.”
Perhaps because of my worry, Ara, who was struggling with her feelings, let out a sigh of relief.
Because the culprit was still not caught, they were not allowed to go anywhere except school for two weeks.
So, I drove to school from the basement of the apartment, and then went back and forth from the school parking lot to the basement parking lot of the apartment.
I couldn’t go on a date or anything.
– Next news. Cherry blossoms are in full bloom on the Han River.
Cherry blossoms in spring…
When you think of cherry blossoms, you think of flowers…
Pack something like a 5-tier lunch box, put it on a mat, and go see the flowers at the Han River…
After eating, we took a walk around the Han River while holding hands.
I think it would be fun.
Should I at least ask Ara?
It would be great if I could go.
“Sister, are you okay with the time this weekend?”
“This week?”
Ara takes out her cell phone and checks her schedule.
She held her breath as she looked at that scene.
“Yes, this week is a holiday.”
Phew.
Thank goodness.
As I sighed in relief, Ara tilted her head and smiled.
Ara’s eyes seem to be asking, ‘What’s going on?’
She had the look in her eyes that I would never have expected to invite her on a date.
“Then, would you like to go see the flowers at the Han River with me? Pack a lunch.”
“Really? My sister wanted to go see the flowers, how did you know?”
“I don’t know? I guess it’s telepathy.”
It seems like Ara also wanted to go see the flowers.
Well, how could I not think about how I stayed home and couldn’t go out in this warm and cozy spring weather?
Ara, who likes to hang out and eat, is not an event that can be easily overlooked.
“How about viewing the flowers at the Han River this weekend?”
“Agree~”
“Then I’ll prepare a lunch box. Is there anything you want to eat?”
“Um…A lunch box like a lunch box?”
The only bento boxes that I know of are convenience store bento boxes and Osechi-style bento boxes.
No, is the Hansot lunch box also one of those lunch boxes?
“A lunch box with things like karaage, egg rolls, octopus sausage, etc.?”
“Yes, I hope it feels that way.”
“Phew… I guess I’ll have to show off my skills after a long time.”
I don’t know how well she can make it, but since Ara wants to, she’ll give it a try.
First of all, I need to buy a 5-compartment lunch box online.
“Anything else?”
“A sandwich?”
Sandwiches are okay.
A lot of ham and cheese on a base filled with vegetables…
“The sandwich is good. It feels like a picnic.”

“hehehe, right?”
“And… If you take Kkomuli with you…”
I have to take care of Caesar and dishes.
If you want to go see flowers with your family, there are a lot of things to take care of.
“Shall we go on Saturday or Sunday?”
“Oh, not on Sunday.”
“Why?”
I won’t rest on Saturday and work on Sunday, so it won’t be work.
Do you want to relax and play a game?
Racing games seem to be consistently fun, so it was worth buying it.
However, the reason that came out of Ara’s mouth was a different answer than expected.
“Don’t you know there’s a new Sunday drama starting this Sunday?!”
“I don’t know.”
I am not very interested in dramas.
So, when Junghwan and Minho talk about the drama, I can’t join in.
I was alone and just listened to the two people’s conversation, but didn’t say anything.
Come to think of it, Ara also really liked dramas.
I remember crying while watching a drama before.
“Ha…Why is the boy so uninterested in dramas?”
“But I’ve seen that before.”
“Which one?”
“Giant and comrades.”
“…………How did you see that again?”
“My mom watched it for a while so we watched it together.”
Giant was a drama about a construction company, and Comrades was a drama about the Korean War.
Those two were masterpieces among masterpieces.
“Actually, I like subculture more than drama.”
“Tch… Anyway, Sunday is a historic moment so no.”
“Okay, then I’ll prepare it for Saturday.”
“Yes, please. Little b*tch, shall we watch a drama with mom?”
“Woof!”
Okay, leave Dad alone and watch dramas with Mom.
Is this why I should try to raise a daughter? It is useless.

“Wow…Look at the cherry blossoms…”
“It’s really in full bloom.”
Ara, who was holding Kgomool’s leash, got out of her car and ran to a tree full of cherry blossoms.
She ran out with him, and she said she likes her mother.
As expected, Kkomulgi is a puppy.
Today, luckily, there were moderately cloudy clouds, making it perfect weather to sit outside.
It was truly the perfect weather for flower viewing.
“Seonghwan, you come quickly too.”
“Wait a minute. I have to put this mat and take care of it.”
After watching me unload her luggage one by one from her trunk, Ara came over here, scratching her head with a wry smile on her face.
When I hung her mat around her neck and tried to carry her lunch box, she was so heavy that it seemed like she was about to fall.
“That’s right, should my sister carry the lunch box?”
“Yes, please.”
“What is your favor…?”
Ara lifted the wooden basket that I had failed to lift.
And that too with one hand.
How on earth do you lift that with one hand?
It’s amazing every time I see it.
“What’s in here?”
“A lunch box, a drink, a sandwich… Rice and a bowl… And a tablet PC?”
“There’s nothing special in it?”
“No, it’s heavy with the drinks in it.”
“Well… Men can do that.”
Now Ara has given up on comparing based on her own standards.
Because the difference in physical strength and strength between men and women is too big.
“Where should I spread out my seat?”
“Shall we spread it out near the river?”
“Then…There’s a bench under the cherry blossom tree over there, so let’s go there.”
The place I headed to was a good place to see the river and have a chair so it was a good place to eat something.
And, since it was under the most important cherry blossom tree, flower viewing was not bad either.
“The only thing that’s unfortunate is that I can’t spread the mat because of the slope.”
“It’s okay. Even little ones can sit on the bench.”
“Is it okay?”
“If you spread a mat on the bench, you won’t get it dirty, right?”
Oh.
Ara suggested something I had never thought of.
After all, idols have a lot of ideas.
But, it’s the weekend and there’s no one there.
Isn’t the Han River usually crowded with people at this time?
“Is it because it’s dark?”
“Or maybe it’s just quiet here because there’s a festival or something?”
It was so noisy from earlier that it seemed like a festival was taking place.
On this side, I only see people taking a walk.
“Hmm…”
Ara began to think carefully.
He has an expression that seems like something is coming to mind.
“Ah! Come to think of it, there was a flower viewing festival over there!”
“Festival?”
Is there a place that holds a festival in spring?
I’ve never heard anything like that in my life.
“Rather than a festival, it’s something where people get together and it’s similar to a club.”
“Aha…Then we’ll just play among ourselves. If we go there for no reason, it’ll just be noisy.”
“Yes, it’s nice and quiet since we’re the only ones there.”
Ara smiled and took out her mat and spread it on her bench.
Perhaps because we arrived just in time for lunch, it was clear that he was looking forward to the lunch box.
The reason is, when preparing a lunch box at home,
This is because Ara was prohibited from entering the kitchen.
You’ll be surprised when you find out what I’ve prepared for you.
“What do you want to eat first? A lunch box or a sandwich?”
“Of course it’s a lunch box!”
“Woof!”
Ara and Kgomouli answered at the same time.
Should we say that Kgomool responded?
But. Squeeze.
I’m sorry, but your meal is Caesar.
“What on earth have we prepared for you to make us look forward to it?”
“Are you curious? Open it.”
As if I was looking forward to it, I immediately opened the lid of the lunch box that was in the wooden basket.
The inside was full of gorgeous food.
Fried shrimp, pork cutlet, meatballs, sweet and sour pork, rolled eggs, Vienna sausage and stir-fried vegetables, kimbap and tofu sushi.
I made some takoyaki, but the shape wasn’t pretty, so I only selected the pretty ones and put them in.
“Woo… Our Seonghwan gave me some strength?!”
“This is all handmade.”
“Really…?”
No matter how much it is a flower viewing, picnic, and lunch box, is it really necessary to use frozen food if Ara is going to eat it?
This is a completely homemade lunch box that was prepared from yesterday and completed until this morning.
“I pride myself on being a cooking Qtuber, but I don’t use frozen food.”
“Wow…I think I had a really good marriage…”
“If you say that when you see food….”
“That’s not it, I’m just saying it was a good thing I married you who touches me in this way.”
“Ahem…You should say that.”
I almost got upset for a moment, but I smiled at Ara’s quick correction.
I took out wooden chopsticks and a plate from the wooden basket and handed them to Ara.
“Go ahead and eat it.”
“Then… I will eat well.”
Ara extended her chopsticks to her tofu sushi.
As expected, Ara reaches for the tofu sushi first.
As I watched, I took out the rice bowl and opened a can of Caesar.
“You little bastard, let’s eat.”
“Woof!”
After looking at the bowl for a long time, Komul tilted her head.
Usually, I mixed feed with Caesar, but today it seemed strange that there was only Caesar.
“If it’s not enough, Dad will give you another one.”
“Woof! Woof!”
“Good? Good?”
A little b*tch comes to me and licks my cheek before I eat.
He seems to be feeling quite good.
