78 – Yujeong Lee-complete
Dad…?
I also have a father..?
That is nonsense.
I thought daddy only appeared in books, but I have a dad..? Dad… Dad…
“What’s wrong with you? You’re my dad..!?”
“..Yoojung! What does that mean to your dad!!”
“…I’m sorry, I have nothing to say. I’m so… Sorry for coming back late. I’m sorry, Yu-Jung. And I’m sorry to you too…! But I’ll try my best from now on!”
“…It’s okay. It’s okay… It’s over- it’s okay now…”
I think it was the first time I saw my mother crying.
…My dad and mom hugged each other tightly in front of everyone and wept profusely.
I didn’t know what happened between the two of you, but I do know that you went through a lot of hard work and effort for the moment we met again.
After that, mister… No, dad cried so much that he grilled beef with swollen eyes, and I remembered that I was hungry and ate it deliciously.
If you brought me to a barbecue restaurant and said, “This is your father,” Everyone would roll their eyes…
Looking at eating meat, at that time I was calm about unnecessary things.
My mom who brought my dad to my house right after eating meat, and my dad who shed tears once more there saying he was happy… It seems like all of the screws were missing one by one that day.
I thought so, but to be honest, it was fun.
As long as a lot of things don’t happen after that, I’m willing to go back to those days. Because my dad was such a good person.
Come to think of it, my mother doesn’t live a life of selling smiles to other men, wearing heavy makeup and pouring alcohol, but earning money honestly while sweating like others.
Also- I heard that my father was very helpful in helping my mother to do various experiences with me on her day off.
I’m not sure how the two met.
My dad, who had been bullied by his boss at work, was sitting alone on the street and crying. Mom, who saw him crying at that time, couldn’t leave him alone.
I only know that level.
What kind of person is a father, and what exactly does he do? I do not know.
Just like my mother, my father was also a person who suffered a lot of heartache.
It was a family marriage, but it was a very burdensome marriage.
She doesn’t even love that woman, just like her chess piece, as a tool to bring her family closer together, she hates that she is being used, so she jumps out.
Every time I was held in the arms of her mother like her child while acting like a drunken chair maniac one day. Dad used to act like a child to her mother like that.
What type of job do you have? Family- It’s like a person from a family with bones to the extent of saying blah blah.
Sometimes my dad was so innocent that even I was surprised. Yes. Wealthy boy. Even to me as a child, it seemed that my father had never suffered.
But he didn’t hate it.
Because Dad had enough money to live that way, but he never once did or said anything that looked down on us.
Again – like her mother, she said that money earned while sweating is the best.
When we first started living together, we had to buy a house and buy home appliances, so we used the money we had in the house only then. After that, Dad never spent his share of the money.
He spoke while beating his chest proudly.
I know her grandparents and great-grandparents are incredibly rich, but her dad never had any contact with them.
I’m a father who does more bad things than good things…! I liked that kind of dad.
A kind, kind, and caring dad. I am the happiest child in the world with a mom and a dad who love me very much!
My family has a family meeting every weekend. Where do you usually go to play on weekends? Or what goodies would you like to eat? I was only discussing that.
However, the theme of this meeting is, in what direction should our family’s future go? Such a topic came up at a family meeting, and for a long time, even after I slept, my mom and dad had a marathon meeting, and the grand result was a store opening.

“Mom, where should I attach this..?”
“Hey- how about sticking it on top of the ceiling…? A little higher- up, that’s right.
…Ah! Look at your mind! I forgot to turn the stove on and keep watching….. Thankfully it didn’t burn! It’s me too..! I’m good at anything if I do it once…?”
“How many boxes of substitute potatoes did you use to make those croquettes, can you tell me?”
“He has nothing to say to his mother!”
Today, five years have passed since Dad came to our house.
Yes- I came when I was in the 1st or 2nd grade of elementary school. Since I’m going to be a middle school student soon- I’m guessing that’s about that much time…?
It’s a short amount of time when you say it’s really short, but in that short amount of time, Dad did a lot for our family.
At first, I suddenly had a ‘Daddy’..? What did Dad do while our mother and daughter were having a hard time?
I pushed my dad away because of that repulsive feeling… Even when I did that, he always cared for me with love, and as time passed like that. Soon enough, Dad became a proud member of our family.
It was good that my mom didn’t drink every day, and I was very happy that I had a warm meal and a dad who could go out with me every weekend.
Recently, my family finally saved up money to open a small snack bar – then my dad is the boss! Mom is the chef! I’m… The mascot of our shop!..? It seems that the story has already come out to become.
That’s why I’m making croquettes so hard and attaching colorful balloons to the wall to celebrate the glorious opening day of our snack bar. I was working so hard to decorate the house.
Now that we have opened a new store, I hope that the future will be full of good days and happy days!
“…Because it seems like the time has come for Dad to come..! Now Yoo-jung is hiding in the closet over there with the cake!”
My mother and daughter’s plan was to set off firecrackers and bring me to my room when my dad came home, and I hid in her closet and rushed at him with a cake!
The cake gets smeared on the father’s face, and that looks like… It’ll be fun. I think it would be fun just thinking about it. I can’t wait to see my dad’s bemused expression.
-Heehee
“Yoojeong-ah…! If you smile like that, Dad will notice!”
But how can I bear it…? Something like this…? My heart is pounding, and my body starts to itch just thinking about it.
Still, I have to endure this anticipation and excitement that I am feeling right now for greater happiness in the future.
I took the cake and carefully went inside the closet and hid.
-Tada da!
I heard Dad’s footsteps going up the stairs!
– Bang!
-Pang!
“Wow…”
“-Jung Yoo! And you! Hurry up… Get out of here quickly…!”
Dad’s voice wasn’t the usual friendly one.
If it goes according to the original plan, Dad, what the hell is this..?! I was surprised and my mom had to bring her dad to my room…
That didn’t happen. Urgent voice.
“Hey, you know…? Who’s that guy in the back?”
“…..Are you happy living in such a tiny house?”
A strange voice. It’s the first voice I’ve ever heard.
What should I do?
I just held my breath.
“Why..? Can’t I? I… How much do I like you? How much I tried! Why do you always not look at me? Is that girl so much better than me?
How pretty I am! How rich and how smart I am! I’m the girl that suits you! Not that girl who spreads her legs on strangers for a few bucks!”
“…”
“…Let’s go back.. Please.. I was wrong! I can start over… Again. I was so clumsy. I didn’t know anything.
I just thought I could have been happy with you that way! So that’s just how it was! So- again… Let’s go back. To our house.”
“Leave this”
“…Doesn’t Jin-a who was born between us feel sorry for her?”
“I’m not interested”
“…..”
“I… Never intended to have that child”
“Think again”
“I always told you. You always told me, you should be honored to have a woman like me. …I didn’t want to! I’m not a chess piece.
I didn’t even want to live with you very much, but your house threatened us by force! You know I don’t know that..? I’m sorry but I’m not that stupid

That’s what I said! You and I don’t get along! So, speaking to you so honestly, what did you do to me…?”
“I apologize for hitting, swearing and harassing you! Again… Give me another chance! I didn’t bully you! I left you alone for years!
I have reflected a lot during that time! I regretted it a lot too! So you didn’t touch it! Until now! So… I trusted you and waited and waited…”
“Never mind what I do or don’t do! I am me and you are you!”
“…Jinah and I are dying every day…”
“You’re the one dying, anyway, you didn’t even pay attention to her when I was there! Poor daughter, you only have one now. Don’t sell your feelings like that – it’s disgusting.”
“…No, this is not what I wanted… So- if you come… Yes, if you come back to my house… I’ll treat Jin-ah well… And you too- So… Uh… Isn’t it nice…? Come here”
“Go away! I don’t like it, but don’t cling to it! It’s disgusting!”
“I… Threw myself into a bar so I couldn’t get up again… And then… Stuck disgustingly…”
Once I heard a crackling sound! It seemed that her mother, who was listening to a woman’s conversation with her father, interrupted even worse.
“……Without you… Yes, without you… None of this would have happened. You’re all bad… You shake your disgusting body and just- approach and seduce me, so- yeah … So… So… Without you…”
-Mumble…
Voice like chanting-
-Kyaa!
A ripping noise.
…I can’t remember what happened after that.
-Several shouts- and screams. Crunchy bang-Balloons burst, and the dishes on the table were broken.
The disgusting smell of blood.
Beep Beep Beep- It wasn’t until the police and paramedics arrived that I was able to pluck up the courage to open the closet door and step outside.
But at that time, my mom and dad were no longer by my side.
