85 – Year-end donation (3)
“Seonghwan is my older brother.”
“Oppa~”
“How are you?”
From Noble mtl dot com
In a whining voice, as if you want to be foolish.
I patted the heads of my younger sisters who were hugging me.
They won’t come out until all the things are moved.
I almost felt a little disappointed. Maybe the director or my mom told me not to come out until it was over.
But, I guess I was in middle school.
There is no difference in wanting to be a fool.
“Where are the other kids?”
“I went to the PC room with the guys.”
“PC room? Come to think of it, I guess I should have gotten some computers too.”
It’s not like there aren’t computers here, but it’s enough to run a decent game.
Performance will not be good.
Rather than spending money by going to a PC room for no reason.
I think it would be good to save money and have a few computers.
“Well, it’s not that urgent.”
“Then, brother, hug me.”
“Come here.”
I hugged my little sisters one by one, who were now fully grown.
What is so good about being hugged by me? You blush and smile brightly.
I couldn’t help but smile bitterly as I looked at my younger siblings.
“My brother brought me a lot of delicious food, so he enjoys it.”
“Delicious!”
As expected, girls like delicious food the best.
If you freeze things like meat, you can keep them and eat them for a long time.
I bought a lot from Costco.
I told my mom and the director not to skimp and eat plenty.
I told the CEO that on the 1st of every month, meat is donated to the orphanage through the butcher shop.
Since she asked for it to be delivered, she has no reason to skimp on it.
Children are at an age where they can eat and grow.
“I think you need to eat more than us…”
The child who was hugging me suddenly started worrying about me.
When I held it, it seemed like I was worried because it didn’t have much weight.
“Oppa, are you eating well?”
“I’m eating well.”
“But why are you less fat than us?”
“That’s…”
Actually, I wanted to say that I gained a little weight.
I gave up saying it because I thought it would be taken as an outrageous lie.
Now I see that my younger sisters work out hard too.
I could feel things like muscles in my body little by little.
“Oppa, exercising is what’s left.”
“Before that, you have to eat a lot and grow your body first.”
“Ugh…”
I’m sure he’s your older brother, but I’m not in a position to worry about him.
I am now in a position to be worried.
Then, the children who had been hugging each other all of a sudden
Suddenly it fell a little.
I looked back to see if there was something wrong with it.
Ara came in here smiling.
“Seonghwan, let’s go quickly.”
“Okay. That’s right, they’re my little sisters. Aren’t they cute?”
I hugged the three people who were clinging to me until now.
I showed it to Ara.
However, the children who did not feel any shame enough to pull up their clothes and show their muscles
Her face was blushing and she was shaking her head from side to side.
“You said you shouldn’t tell girls they’re cute, right?”
“Then…Cool? Handsome?”
Ara smiles bitterly, saying she is already tired.
It seems like my younger sisters are embarrassed because I think they’re cute.
“You could say that the little sisters my brother met after a long time are cute, right?”
I smiled
Finally, I patted their heads and left.

“Then we’ll just leave.”
The vehicle with the volunteers already boarded and departed.
We still stayed to finish the remaining greetings.
As we talked, three hours had already passed since we arrived.
I didn’t see the boys in the end, but I guess I’ll see them next time.
“I call often and come to see my face once in a while!”
I automatically nodded when my mom told me to show my face often while pinching my cheek.
“Okay. Now that I have a car, I’ll come see you sometime.”
“Really? You just say that and don’t come?”
“Can’t you trust your son?”
“Do you remember saying something similar when we became independent?”
“…But we still contacted you.”
I couldn’t see him face to face because I was busy, but we kept in touch once a week.
No, to be exact, the only number of times I contact you is once a week.
Mom calls more often.
“Anyway, you are weak, so take care of your health.”
“Mom, take care of your health too. You’re as old as I am.”
“I’m only thirty-five now?!”
“It hurts! It hurts!”
After receiving a cheek stretching that could be considered an expression of affection,
I got into the car.
It looks like he said hello to the CEO and Ara in advance.
“That’s right. There’s something I put on Mom’s desk, so check it out.”
“What? When will something like that happen again…?”
“Sister, let’s leave soon.”
“Then goodbye.”
Ara finished saying her final goodbyes and exited the parking lot of her orphanage.
She started heading to the first gathering place.
*
“What kind of gift…?”
Ahyoung came into her room
I checked her box placed on her desk.
I am thankful that the son I gave birth to with my heart showed her face for the first time in a long time.
She actually felt sorry for paying a lot of attention to her support, donations… This and that.
Nevertheless, it is said that she even left a personal gift.
Can you bear it because you are so curious about what it contains?
So she came right into the room, and opened the box to check her contents.
It was a large box, but surprisingly, the contents were small items.
“A letter…A gift certificate?”
A letter was left behind along with an envelope containing a bunch of department store gift certificates.
To summarize the contents of the letter, she said that she was sorry for not showing her face after a long time and that she wanted to give her mother a gift of clothes, but she said that it would be difficult to choose because she did not know the size or taste. She said
She was leaving a gift certificate.
It’s winter soon, and half of the time it’s for mothers to buy clothes, and half for the children to buy warm clothes.
Ayoung was moved by the heart-warming contents of the letter, but As soon as she saw the bundle of gift certificates lying next to her, her emotions were broken.
“Seonghwan…This is too much…”
A 100,000 won gift certificate was tied with a white paper string.
Looking at the gift certificate that seems to be worth 10 million won, even if you look at its thickness.
Ahyoung let out her sigh.

When I returned to the gathering place, I was completely confused.
Manias and collectors flock to buy limited-edition goods distributed to volunteers.
They came as a group.
Some volunteers did it in quite a fun way, such as holding an auction with the crowd of people.
We were sharing things with each other.
For reference, it is said that cash transactions are prohibited in this place.
What is possible is to exchange goods with each other.
Now that I think about it, among the goods randomly distributed among the volunteers this time,
I heard there is also a volunteer limited edition.
Seeing as there aren’t any crowded places yet, I wonder if no one got it?
I was also a little curious about what it was.
“CEO, can you please teach me a bit?”
“Limited edition?”
“What on earth is this that people are flocking to…”
“It’s just a plastic photo card.”
After looking closely, it appears that there are photo cards featuring celebrities belonging to our company.
You can purchase it as a random pack on the agency’s website.
Because all cards have all rarities, it seems quite difficult to collect them all.
And, last time we sold limited goods
They say it was an event and that they sold several new rare cards that did not come from random packs.
It seems that photo cards, which were sold for 10,000 won a piece at the time, are now hard to find even if you pay 1 million won a piece.
“Then, among the volunteers, those who received the card will make some money.”
“Among them, there are only two limited volunteer cards. By the way, Seonghwan, are you interested in photo cards?”
“Collecting cards is one of my hobbies, too.”
“Then I’ll give you a binder with all the cards in it, so please promote it.”
“Really? Is it okay to give something like that?”
Thank you to me, but from the perspective of someone who buys and collects random packs one by one,
Wouldn’t it seem a little unfair?
“I’m giving this as a gift to the strongest person in the photo card world. Take this.”
“What is this? By the way, you are the strongest…”
“This is it. This limited edition distributed by volunteers.”
What the CEO took out of his pocket was a silver card pack.
You made card enthusiasts go crazy.
When I see something like this, of course I want to take a look.
“But something like this has to be unopened to shine…”
“I’ll give you an unopened copy later, so hurry up and check it out.”
He urged me not to worry and told me to quickly open it.
I opened the card pack carefully.
And then he carefully took out a very flashy card.
“This…”
“What do you think? Do you like it?”
“hahahaha…Why is this…”
Photos printed on plastic photo cards are
It was a photo taken by Ara herself in Japan, and it showed me watching a passing train with my eyes shining.
