199 – Jjimjilbang (3)
“I won!”
“Whoa…Mindo is quite good at withstanding the heat, isn’t she?”
Ara neatly admits defeat.
It was a little funny that the person who lost praised the person who won for her talent, but isn’t she still my sister?
Minji was so happy that she won that she looked like she was about to cheer three times.
“But sister, aren’t you overdoing it?”
“Huh? It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Well, isn’t that the amount that Ara can earn for a house if she works hard for a few days?
When I think about it that way, I feel both fearful and reassured by Ara’s amazing wealth.
“Promises are meant to be kept!”
“Sister!”
“Oguogu, what kind of ramen can you not do for your brother-in-law?”
I was almost touched by the fact that Ara didn’t just show her cuteness, but Minji also loved her idol as her older sister.
Minji wanted to have her sister, and she also wanted Ara to have her sister, so she must have done well.
I think it would be safe to say that Eunji is now a little out of Ara’s attention.
“Ara.”
“Ji-ye. Call me Ara.”
“Sister?”
As if her parents often held her hand, Ji-ye immediately grabbed Ara’s hand and looked up, smiling at her.
It was so cute that Ara started complaining that her heart was hurting.
Is she and Jiye 18 years apart?
“Jiye, come here. It looks like her older sister is having a hard time with it.”
“Huh? Ara, where does it hurt?”
She doesn’t mean she’s really sick.
She seems to have a difficult time with a child who is only five years old.
By the way…
“Jiye, where are your brother and friend?”
“It’s over there.”
The place Jiye pointed to is the place with the lowest temperature in the sauna.
She pointed to what is commonly called the salt ice room.
Going there in this weather?
Do you think they are more crazy than the women?
“Hey! Are you guys crazy?”
Even if she knocks on the door, she doesn’t even move a little, as if she doesn’t care to listen.
Could it be that he froze to death?
No, looking at it now, I don’t think that’s true.
They are both holding on to the steaming cup of coffee.
It seems to be in a similar vein to Ara and Minji quenching their thirst with sikhye in a hot bulgogi earlier.
What bet did they make?
Even if my mouth turns and I feel pain, I don’t know.
“The loser is supposed to pay everything.”
“Really?”
Then it might not be that bad.
Rather, isn’t this a golden opportunity to take Minho off and eat him?
*
In the end, it ended with Jeonghwan’s victory.
Minho even shed tears and expressed his frustration, but no one paid attention to him.
A future in which money will be wasted on foolish bets.
Who would want to comfort someone like that?
“But Seonghwan, you’re not going in?”
“Do you want to take a sauna? I don’t like being hot or cold.”
No matter what, it would be a shame to come to the jjimjilbang and not go into the sauna, so I plan to spend some time in the lukewarm amethyst room, which is about 65 degrees.
Probably, the probability of me entering the ice room is low.
And even if you don’t go to those two places, there is a lot to do here.
There are also places where you can relax and take a foot bath.
“Jiye doesn’t like hot places either, right?”
I asked Jiye with the intention of making a colleague and staying with her.
Jiye held Ara’s hand and smiled for a while, then shook her head from side to side and began to deny what I said.
“I also like hot places.”
“Um…Really?”
Is it because she is a woman?
I felt like he had the fortitude to survive in a hot place longer than me.
Even though I am weak, am I too weak?
I think I was a little shocked.
“Oppa?”
“Yes…”
“It’s okay because you look pretty.”
“….You know that’s not a compliment to a married man, right?”
What do you do when you hear that a man who is already married looks pretty?
I sighed while stroking Minji’s head.
*
“Sister.”
“Yes.”
I also enjoyed the sauna to some extent.
I am lying down facing Ara in a sleeping room with the sound of running water.
There was no one other than us, so it was quiet and the perfect place for conversation.
“Is it because of me that you said you would buy Minji an apartment?”
“That’s part of it, and part of it is that I want to get closer to Minji.”
“I see…”
Even though she’s not my real sister, it’s really nice to have a younger sister I can call family.
Even for a person of Ara’s caliber, burning 2 to 3 billion won at once would be burdensome.
Well, since it was Ara’s decision, I just respect it.
Besides, I can’t thank you for giving it to Minji, so there’s no reason to object.
“But will Minji be able to afford the utility bills?”
“hehehe, it looks like more people are worried about you than you thought?”
“Of course. She’s someone’s younger sister.”
Anyway, if you take the bus in front of my house, it goes directly to Minji’s school.
I thought about just taking him home.
However, Ara might not like that, and she thought that Minji would also have some privacy, so she found a house to rent.
Although Ara tilts her head to be brought inside her house,
It seems like it’s okay for people to come and go while living in the same apartment.
“It’s nice that I can take care of Minji more. Thank you.”
“Thank you. There is no need to say things like that between couples.”
Then Ara leaned on my shoulder and closed her eyes.
After tidying up her bangs and handing them over, she kissed my cheek.
We really liked this place because we couldn’t go to regular saunas.
I can’t believe I can show affection like this without having to worry about what other people think.
…. Now that I think about it, was it a violation of manners to be affectionate in a public place?
“Can we come here on our own?”
“I heard that if you come once, you can come again?”
“I’m glad.”
Wouldn’t it be okay to come once a month?
No.
Since Ara is often busy even on weekends, I think she would be successful even if she only comes once every two or three months.
“Then, sister, I’ll go into the bulgogi and come back.”
“Again? If my sister falls, I’m going to sit down and cry?”
It won’t work.
Isn’t this all because the sauna in the apartment is lukewarm?
I guess I’ll have to find a good way.
***
After hearing the call tone and checking the tablet PC, it was a call from the desk.
It looks like the installation engineer has arrived.
– PH1, the installation engineer has arrived.
“Yes, I understand.”
Desk calls are simple enough to be similar to radio calls.
They say there is a reason for everything, but I don’t really know why.
Anyway, the technician who came today is not a technician who came to repair/install white appliances such as refrigerators or washing machines.
After recently visiting the sauna, it is the day when a gift for Ara arrives.
The doorbell rang loudly as if the drivers had arrived right away.
I walked a little quickly to the front door and opened the door.
“Hello.”
“Hello. I’m here to install the sauna room.”
For Ara, who likes saunas with high temperatures.
I am planning to install a sauna room that can raise the temperature to the level of a fire kiln.
The bathroom in our master bedroom is large and has quite a bit of space, and I thought it would be really nice to place a sauna machine in one corner.
I bought it right away.
“How long does it take to install?”
“It will take about 3 hours. It may be a little noisy~”
As expected, it is noisy and takes a long time.
Then we’ll have to move our dogs and cats into the room.
“Woof! Woof!”
“Mung”
“Uh-huh, they’re not bad people, so you shouldn’t bark.”
“hahahahaha, it’s so cute.”
“I’m sorry. I forgot to move it earlier.”
“We all like dogs, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
I quickly hugged the dog and cat and ran to the room.
Cute little guys who don’t cry or struggle when they’re in my arms.
After everything is finished, Dad will play with you.
“Dang~”
“Kid. Are you having fun playing with your older sister and older brother?”
“Myan~”
As if to say he understood, he raised his front paw and cried, “Myan!”
Cute guy…
He patted his head once and then came out.
I closed the door slightly and came out to see the drivers slowly moving items inside.
Actually, when seen from the front, it was a very large room…
Because it was prefabricated, it only felt like robot parts before I built it.
“Where can I install it?”
“Please install it in the master bathroom.”
“Wow, a lot of people install this in their bathrooms.”
“Do other people do this in the bathroom too?”
“Usually it is done in the bathroom, but if space is limited, many people do it in the living room.”
The living room in our house is very spacious, but putting a sauna room in is a bit…
I think the bathroom in the master bedroom is a good choice.
“Then we will install it in the bathroom.”

“Please do me a favor.”
There are about 6 hours left before Ara comes, so there is still time to finish the installation and cleaning.
I’m very curious about how people will react when they come home and see the sauna room.
…You won’t hate it, right?
If you don’t like it, my heart might break a little.
No, there’s no way your sister wouldn’t like it, right?
You can use a sauna at home.
Yes, that can’t be true.
Let’s stop thinking about strange things and think about how we want to show it.
