89 – Quarrel (2)
But when I was about to invite Hwayoung to my house,
She doesn’t know what food to eat.
Since our common hobby is fishing, does it mean we also like seafood?
No, I might be thinking too simply.
A hobby is just a hobby, and there are people who don’t really like seafood.
Then again, should I ask in a situation like this?
I’m a bit lazy to ask questions over the phone.
It’s been a while since I went to work at the agency, so I’m going to ask Eunji and Yeji directly.
***
When I went to work at the agency after a long time, Eunji put on a lot of makeup and looked excited.
They are wandering around me.
If I were a fool, I would have smiled and asked if I had anything to say.
Isn’t he now a man with the title of being in a relationship for 3 years and being a married man for 1 year?
It’s as simple as reading women’s minds.
It is not a piece of cake, nor is it even a drink of cold water.
“Your makeup style is different from usual? Are you going to meet your boyfriend?”
“Do you think so?”
He must have been happy that I responded, so he sat down on the chair next to me and started laughing.
Eunji used to smile often, but she looks even happier today.
I think both Ara and Eunji are the prettiest when they smile.
“I decided to meet up with my brother after a long time.”
“Oppa? Are you talking about my real brother?”
“Yes. My older brother is 18 years older than me.”
Now that I think about it, you said that Eunji was her younger sibling.
I think I heard that her brothers raised her on their backs instead of her parents who suddenly passed away.
The age difference is bigger than I thought.
But didn’t you say there was a program broadcast?
“He said he wanted to film me and my brother meeting up, so I asked him and gave him permission.”
“I see… What kind of person is your brother?”
“Elder brother? Little brother?”
“Both of you.”
I’m interested in Eunji’s older brother.
Eunji seemed to be in a good mood as she smiled brightly and started talking.
I heard that Eunji’s older brothers only graduated from middle school even though they raised Eunji.
It looks like it was quite eventful.
Maybe that’s why he raised me by carrying me personally.
The love for her two older brothers seems to be on a different level from that of other siblings.
Eunji is talking about the good things about her brothers.
She looked so amazing that I ended up stroking her head.
“Why are you stroking me all of a sudden?”
She smiled and stroked her head, and Eunji noticed my sudden action.
She pouted her lips.
“So you’re saying it’s your dream to marry your real brothers? This oppa knows everything.”
“I…What do you think of me…And my brothers are already married!”
You talk as if you would have had a chance if you hadn’t gotten married.
I burst out laughing after hearing Eunji’s words.
I really feel like there are only good people around me.

“Hwayoung unnie’s favorite food?”
“Yeah, I heard you had a fight with Ara this time? I’m going to invite you to my house and try to make up with her.”
“Ah, are you talking about the fight we had in the dormitory during the program before?”
Eunji nodded, saying she remembered.
It looks like the fight wasn’t as simple as Ara said.
“No? We didn’t fight as big as I thought. It happened to her often.”
“Does Hwayoung make fun of Ara that often?”
“Actually…This is a secret? Can’t I go somewhere else and tell it?”
“Don’t tell me.”
“Hwayoung registered her birth late, so she is 2 years older than Ara.”
“Huh? Is it true?”
“I overheard it too.”
Then, Hwayoung is really her older sister than Ara.
I felt like I was dealing with her like a younger sister, because she really was a younger sibling.
“Ara, you know that too, right?”
“Yes, I heard two people talking.”
“Then why didn’t you tell me?”
“Isn’t it because you’re worried you’ll be confused? Because Ara thinks only of you in a terrible way.”
Even so, it doesn’t change the fact that you are my older sister.
It doesn’t really matter, does it?
Well, it was surprising that Hwayoung was two years older than Ara.
When I saw her usual behavior, I thought she was acting like her older sister.
And, more than anything else, she said that Ara knew
It won’t be a problem.
“So? What does it have to do with being two years older than me and fighting?”
“How cute it must have been to see her little brother pouting while grinding his teeth.”
“I’m upset, so you’re making me even more angry?”
“That too, big time.”
So she said Ara was so angry that she didn’t even speak.
The atmosphere also seems to have darkened.
The important thing is that Ara can be seen as a victim.
In that she rather wants reconciliation.
She can see how cute Ara is, like a kind and gentle animal.
“Ara unnie also teases and harasses me in the same way….”
“Thank you, Eunji. I’ll go soon.”
I interrupted Eunji and got up from her seat.
Because I knew why the two people fought and the background to the fight…
Huh…?
What did I come here for?
“You idiot, you came here to ask me what you two like in common.”
“Ah…That’s right.”
She scratched her head and sat down again.
Because I was a little embarrassed and smiled brightly
Eunji started looking at me with a slightly worried expression.
“For a boy to smile like this…”
“Aren’t you cheating? I don’t smile at anyone either.”
“So you’re saying it’s okay for this ‘older sister’?”
“My sister has a later birthday than me, so what…”
As I laughed, Eunji also laughed at the same time.
“You said you were curious about her favorite food, right? Hwayoung likes seafood and meat, but
I really like her vegetable side.”
“Vegetables?”
“There are carrots, potatoes, and fried food, right? Japanese style.”
“Are you talking about fried vegetables?”
She didn’t seem to like it very much.
It looks like our taste buds are different than I thought.
“Hmm… I’ll have to think about it some more first.”
“You’ve been through a lot.”
“Then I’ll just leave. Have a fun date with your brother.”
“It’s not a date!”
Eunji came out after hearing her voice sounding embarrassed.
I think it’s become more difficult than before I asked…

“Seonghwan~”
“Are you here?”
After finishing preparing all the food, I came out, and Ara came out to meet me.
Hwayoung came in calling my name.
He watched me for a while wiping my hands on my apron.
He looked at my face with a sad expression and started laughing.
“So, I guess I’m a complete housewife?”
“It’s a compliment, right?”
“It’s definitely a compliment for a man to be like a housewife.”
I don’t know the truth, but I took it as a compliment and smiled slightly.
The reason Hwayoung treated me playfully was because I thought she was Hwayoung after all.
“It smells good already, doesn’t it?”
“You can look forward to it. Sister Ara, give me your outerwear.”
“Yes.”
Ara took the robe she was wearing and
She went into the master bedroom, hung it in her dressing room, and came out.
Because it was Hwayoung’s first time coming to our house she just moved into.
She is looking back and forth with Ara.

“What kind of duplex does the apartment have?”
“It seems like Ara chose it because she liked it.”
It was a penthouse so it was too big, but I liked the duplex structure.
I heard that Ara signed her sale contract right away.
And there, Ara’s collections and racing games are carefully preserved.
“Sisters, come down and eat quickly.”
The stew is boiling, and the side dishes will cool down if left out like this. She urged me to come down quickly.
Only after I urged you to wash your hands and come over here.
The two people sitting on the chairs at the table were wide-eyed.
“I knew Seonghwan was good at cooking, but he was like this…”
“Wow… Seonghwan, whose birthday is today? Did you put in some effort?”
I was a little embarrassed by the two people’s compliments, but I didn’t show it and sat down.
Today, we searched the Internet and found foods that both people would like.
I tried preparing food to the point where the legs of the table broke.
After searching, I found out that Hwayoung likes crustaceans just like Ara.
King crab and lobster were airlifted from the seafood center run by Jeonghwan’s parents’ house.
I bought high-quality beef through a secret route and did sous vide.
She was so surprised that she even forgot she was fighting.
The two people chatted amicably with each other and seemed to get along like real sisters.
“And I also boiled Ara’s favorite cod fish stew.”
“Are you favoring Araman?”
“Because she is my wife.”
As she nodded her head as if it was natural to show favoritism, Ara’s eyes began to shine.
Hwayoung looked at Ara with a pouty face, probably out of envy.
“I’m jealous, I’m jealous. Some people found a pretty husband and got married, but some people have never been in a relationship before.”
“You didn’t do that. It’s not that you couldn’t do it, but you should say you didn’t do it.”
“I wonder if there’s a pretty boy next door~”
“If there is a man like that, he won’t be worse than Seonghwan.”
“Yes, very good, very good.”
Hwayoung pinched Ara’s left and right cheeks to stretch them.
She was worried for a moment that they might fight, but Ara smiled brightly and accepted Hwayoung’s joke.
Hwayoung was also smiling brightly and talking with her eyes.
‘What…Have they made up already?’
There, I am the only one who does not know what the situation is.
I just stared at the two people blankly, scratching my head.
