172 – Chair
“You can really choose anything?”
“Is that so? Bring everything you want to buy.”
The two people who helped me find Ara’s parents’ ring were brought to a large department store.
Nothing different, it is to keep the promise made to the two of them once they find the ring.
This is ‘free shopping within limits.’
The limit on the card shared between the two is up to 5 million won per day.
So, the limit given to the two people is 5 million won each.
You may say that the money is rotten and you are wasting it away, but I think you can spend that much.
“I’m at a loss because they suddenly tell me to use 5 beks.”
“Should I buy clothes first? Or a watch? Or cosmetics?”
“Choose slowly, I’m going to do some shopping too.”
I gave Ara a present a while ago, so I came today to give myself a present.
I didn’t come here just to say, “I guess I can shop comfortably.”
The two took the card and left immediately.
That being said, there are probably a lot of things you want to buy.
Well, they are just college students like me.
Furthermore, since he is a man, he will be sensitive to fashion and such.
“I’m going to pass since Ara matches my clothes…”
Actually, my goal today is to buy a decent chair.
This department store also houses expensive overseas chair manufacturers, so it can be said to be a department store that satisfies everyone.
Anyway, where should I go to the store?
“First of all, over there? Or, over there?”
I don’t know.
I have so much time, why not look around here and there?
*
It’s been three hours since I entered the department store, but I haven’t bought anything yet.
No, I bought one.
A soft ice cream in my hand.
I was walking around here and there before buying a chair, but suddenly I felt frustrated and went outside.
Perhaps because it is a large department store, there was a rest area on the rooftop that customers could use.
If it were New World Department Store, I would have rested in the VIP customer lounge.
In that respect, the first department store I came to was a little uncomfortable.
“Did these two buy anything?”
I can’t check whether the payment has been made or not because I haven’t connected the card app to my phone.

It’s also annoying.
I guess I should ask the staff for directions and go to the chair store.
It is soon time to return to where we joined.
“But the difference between the chairs is so great that you should buy the more expensive one.”
The price of the chair is the manufacturer’s price, but it is said that you can feel it when you sit on it.
But is that really that dramatic?
The chair the CEO used also looked luxurious, but I didn’t feel much about it.
Or maybe the CEO is using something cheap?
“Oh, that can’t be true.”
Our vicious boss can’t do that.
If you say it’s comfortable, isn’t he the kind of person who will take the presidential chair away?
“So my doll…”
I picked a doll from the doll claw machine right next to me and entered the representative office.
The doll was taken away because it looked soft.
When I think about that, I still…
No… Let’s wait.
Didn’t we tell you to control your mind when it comes to anger?
CEO Arado told me to hold back because he is someone who cannot stand seeing a doll.
“Huh? Is this place?”
As I looked further upstairs, I reached a store with a lot of chairs lined up.
You can sit down once, but the number of chairs is a joke.
“You can only buy it in stores, but you can’t pick it up… In this case, wouldn’t it be better to just buy it online?”
No, isn’t that right?
But it will be different because you can sit down and watch it once.
Yes.
Isn’t it no fun to just go back anyway?
It wouldn’t be a bad idea to sit down and think about it.
With that in mind, I entered the store.

“What, what did you buy?”
As soon as I arrived, two people asked me what I bought.
The two men had a paper bag full of paper bags in their hands.
Probably the items I bought today.
Since you were asked a question first, it makes sense to answer it.
I cleared my throat with a cough and continued speaking.
“Hmm…A bit expensive chair.”
“How much?”
“2 Million won…”
“Wow, now I’m spending 2 million won on a chair.”
“I’m saying that because you two haven’t sat down together.”
At first, I thought the same thing.
What on earth do people who spend 1 million or 2 million won on a replacement chair do? He said.
But….
The comfort of the chair was on a different level.
Herman Miller’s products had a good reason for their selling price.
There is a reason why things are expensive, and I think I now know why we invest money in those things.
I began to think that I could have this same dramatic experience not only with chairs, but also with other expensive items.
I think I can understand people who buy expensive things.
“My sense of money has collapsed.”
“Well, he has a lot of money, so it’s probably okay.”
“Hey, my money sense is the same?”
I am not a politician or a conglomerate.
It’s not like subway fares or bus fares.
“Then what did you two buy?”
“I bought clothes.”
“Me too.”
“5 Million won worth?”
“What do you say, how can I spend all 5 million won?”
Then the two people handed me a card.
The receipt was also included, but when I checked, neither of them had spent hundreds of thousands of won.
“Anyway, how do you spend all 5 million won?”
“People have consciences. For the rest, Ara, I’ll buy you something delicious.”
Friends who pat me on the shoulder.
I really don’t mind using it all…
“By the way, where is the chair I bought?”
“They said they can only order here.”
“Then the reason for coming to the department store is… Ah.”
Jeonghwan nodded his head sharply, saying he understood.
Isn’t the advantage of coming here to buy something is that you can sit and look at it?
This is not possible in any online shop, but it is possible because it is an offline shop.
“This…It’s heavy so let’s go quickly.”
“Wow, my hand hurts.”
“Ah…Okay, so don’t push me? If you fall again like last time…”
You both die from Ara.
You hurt my leg.

“Ugh!!!! It’s heavy!!!”
Just like the last time I moved the astronomical telescope, I brought it home with the help of the staff.
It would be a good idea to inquire about delivery and change it.
You wouldn’t know it if a package weighing more than 20 kg was placed at the door, but carrying it from the first floor to the penthouse was a difficult task in itself.
“Phew! It’s over!”
Of course, because we haven’t even started assembling it yet.
Rather than saying it is over, it might be right to shout that it is just the beginning.
But we succeeded in moving it to our house, so it’s like half the work is already done.
Assembling it will take less than 30 minutes.
“Let’s see… Tear this way, tear that way.”
I took a cutter knife and started disassembling the box as if unboxing an electronic device.
The yellow box contained a lot of cushioning material to protect the items from shock during transportation.
It will take a lot of time to throw this away again.
“Wow, I can’t understand anything even after looking at the manual.”
There are a lot of things written about number 1, number 2, etc.
It’s too distracting.
In reality, all that is done is driving four large screws and attaching the chair and the base below.
This is divided into dozens of items.
I had no choice but to ignore the manual, search the product name on QTube, and watch the assembly video.
When I watched the video, it showed me exactly what I really needed, so assembly was completed in no time.
“Wow…It’s the same as when I sat down at the store.”
Of course, if it’s different, that’s a big deal.
Still, my heart pounded at the thought that I could once again feel the emotion I felt back then.
No, now I can feel it from now on.
“Now that the installation is complete…”
It’s time to clean up the cushioning material scattered around the living room.
When will I get rid of all this?
“Uh huh! You can’t eat that, you little b*tch! Even you little b*tches!”
When I saw these two normally smart dogs seeing each other for the first time, I started to put them in their mouths.
To prevent them from eating, I removed the cushion with my paws and lifted the two puppies with both hands and held them in my arms.
“Didn’t you say that my babies, if you’re hungry, daddy will give you food?”
“Woof!”
“Mung.”
“Okay, okay, let’s go eat.”
I looked at the clock and it was already well past the time when I should have fed him.
I guess the attempt to pick up the buffer was a protest.
Hurry up and protest for food!

“I’m back~”
I smiled wryly at the sight of our babies running so fast that I couldn’t tell if they were going out to meet me or having a running race.
That’s why they say the number of single-person households raising dogs is increasing.
I heard that cats don’t show much interest unless their owner comes.
I headed toward the entrance, wiping my hands on the apron I was wearing in front of me.
Today, I’m holding a lot of things in my hands.
“Are you here? What are you holding in your hand?”
“What is it? It’s a gift!”
“A gift? If it’s a gift, it was a while ago…”
Didn’t you buy me a new cell phone because you wanted to repay the favor?
But what about a gift?
“hehehe, Seonghwan brought me a gift, not you.”
“Aha…”
I didn’t even think about who would give me rice cake, but I drank kimchi soup first.
I was embarrassed for a moment, but I smiled when I saw Ara smiling brightly while holding the two puppies.
But it’s a gift for a dog.
What on earth did you buy?
After all, it’s food.
The only gifts that dogs like are things to eat or toys, but we have a lot of dog toys at our house.
