“How did you two meet?”
The person who asked this question was Si-eun, who calmed her shame and returned to her original state.

My side was sacrificed to restore peace. Now, the area where the finger was punctured was painful.“we?”
The friend tilted his head and asked the somewhat unexpected question. Si-eun nodded, and this time Ina opened her mouth with a small smile.
“Um, we met at the newspaper club… … Should I say it?”
“right? You’ve known me since then.”
“Still, the only thing that can be said to have officially met is at the newspaper club.”

My friend and Ina looked at each other and coordinated their opinions. Ina turns towards us to see if a conclusion has finally been reached.“Anyway, yes.”
anyways so
However, it seemed that Si-eun’s curiosity was not over.
“What department did you enter in high school? It’s special.”
“right? In fact, almost no people even come to the newspaper department. There were many times when it was just the two of us.”
“Then, did you two get hit in the eyes while making a newspaper?”
“Um, rather than that.”
Ina raised the corners of her lips as if reminiscing about the past.
“I was making fun of him by asking strange questions.”
“right. It did.”
Friends also helped with bitter laughter.
There was no clear explanation. You asked a strange question. For example, I don’t know what question you are referring to. Si-eun blinked her big eyes to see if a question similar to mine had arisen, and asked again.
“A strange question?”
“Ah, I don’t know how to say this. … … So, shall we try again after a long time?”
Ina said in an excited tone.
What are you trying to do? As she quietly waited for the next action, a smile bloomed on Ina’s face.
Then.
“If that’s the case. If you see a 500 won coin at the vending machine coin return, will you pick it up?”
You asked a really weird question.
The target seemed to be all of us. Because I’m shaking my head in such a way as to ask anyone to answer.
Unlike us, who faced the question with bewildered faces, the friend still had a smile on his face.
While I hesitated, Si-eun stepped out.
“Can I pick it up?”
“Is that okay?”
“Can’t it? Is the master going to be sad?”
“Isn’t there a person who would be sad to lose 500 won?”
That’s it. Then why shouldn’t you pick it up? To Si-eun, who began to ponder as if solving a riddle, the friend raised his palm. I guess that means he wants to continue.
“then?”
In response to a friend’s question, Ina clapped her hands.
“listen carefully. The total amount of happiness given to a person is a constant law. If you pick it up right away after you find it, you could be just as unhappy with anything else.”
Well, there was a point where I wanted to. intervene
“What if there is 100 million won in the return gate? Are you still not picking it up?”
“100 million won does not go into the return gate.”
It is a wise word.
The friend’s mouth, who had been watching for a while, opened again.
“The total amount of happiness is constant, so it’s good to be mindful of sudden luck. Are you talking about this?”
“yes.”
“Well. Even if there is a god in the world, ‘Well, last time I gave you 500 won, so this time I’ll let you put bird poop on my head.’ I don’t think so. If I don’t pick it up, wouldn’t I lose 500 won in my lifetime?”
“I don’t know. Because the world is unknowable. I am offering you one possibility.”
As if to organize the story, Ina put her hands together.
Well, it was a question that gave me something to think about. I don’t know how these two got closer. Maybe he had a taste for joy when he heard a question like this from his friend?
A detailed explanation is needed. I stared at my friend and Ina alternately, and then Ina squeaked and continued the conversation.
“I’m having a conversation like this, and when I go out of the office, I just ask.”
Soon after, Ina turned to her friend.
“Would you go out with me? do.”
The friend burst out with a bang.
“Then I would have been very embarrassed.”
“I’m going to ask the guy who was so embarrassed. … … look. You kick the luck that came suddenly. Maybe dating me isn’t even luck? while doing.”
“Wow… … .”
Without realizing it, admiration flowed out. Isn’t this too much I don’t think I could have slept for days if I had been hit. It’s not that it’s not, I think my friends would have been the same.

My friend was so happy with my overreaction that he crossed his arms and muttered.“Because you’re kidding me like this. I really don’t know how much you suffered.”
This is where Ina intervened.
“I wish I had noticed it right away and accepted it.”
“If that’s the case, you could just be honest with me.”
“Did you even give a hint?”
“I didn’t even give you an answer.”
The two, who had been arguing and arguing, soon looked at each other and started to giggle. Well, I don’t know anything else, but one thing is for sure. This is 100% eye-catching.

My stomach hurts just looking at it. Open your mouth towards Ina.“Well, very… … He was a goblin type.”
“You mean I’m small now?”
“Oh, no. Not that.”
“Hmm~”
He looks at me with skeptical eyes to see if he can see through the truth. Isn’t it obvious that she’s small? No, it’s better to listen to the devil than that.
“Anyway.”
Ina turned her gaze away.
“It was fun to make fun of you like this. So I kept playing.”
“Um, I see. It’s fun to tease people and see their reactions.”
“What do you think you know?”
Si-eun was furious, but decided to ignore it.
“Then we went through a lot of different things and we got along better. Eventually, they agreed to get married. This is what it is.”
“It is quite interesting that the two of you met.”
At Ina’s words, Si-eun smirked and commented.
Aside from whether it’s fun, it’s definitely not an ordinary encounter. Haha, I don’t even think it’s a shame that the two people who met normally had already finished their proposals when they were in high school.
Of course, even a couple who got married less than a year after meeting each other is unusual. This time Ina asked.
“Then how did you two get to know each other?”
“Ah, we… … .”
I closed my mouth while trying to answer that involuntarily. To explain how we met, we have to mention that Si-eun worked as a housekeeper in our house. It wouldn’t be nice to Si-eun.
I thought so. Si-eun, who had been eating pizza for a break, confessed in a cool way.
“I started working as a housekeeper for her house. And then we became friends… … . We went through a lot of things on our own, and we got closer. I even got married.”
“Oh~”
Ina nodded her head in wonder.
On the other hand, there was a man with his mouth wide open with an astonished expression on his side.
“Did you?”
“uh.”
“Huh… … .”
The friend, who had only now grasped the truth, put his forehead on his forehead and sighed. From that mouth, “For some reason, she didn’t even talk about the housekeeper.” A voice was also heard. I don’t know if I’m talking to myself or telling me to listen.
The friend shook his head.
“I thought something was strange. He said he likes housekeepers, but suddenly he said that he was dating him.”
“I don’t understand how many times I said it was thanks to you.”
“Of course. So, I really couldn’t have imagined it. Somehow they got married too soon. Actually, it was because we were together.”
It wasn’t really a cohabitation, it was just a cohabitation. They cooked meals and did laundry, and after we started dating, we spent time in one room. Compared to other couples, they have been together several times over the same period.
Thanks to you, I was able to bear the fruit of marriage so early.
I don’t have the heart to be proud of myself, but for some reason my shoulders are straight. His chin is raised, and a smile of victory forms on his lips. Si-eun also raised the corners of her lips to see if there was much difference.
Ina, who watched us like that, was blunt.
“I don’t know when we will get married.”
“… … You decided to do it after graduating from college.”
“It takes several years of moxibustion and keeps you waiting.”
“So, well, we’re living almost like a couple now.”
“We live like a couple, but we are not married.”
“… … .”
The friend’s mouth was sealed. poor guy.
It felt good to imagine a friend who would be ripped off by his wife after marriage. With that in mind, I looked at the couple of friends with a benevolent smile.
Until I hear Si-eun’s ears.
“Aren’t you looking at other women right now?”
“What?”
“You were looking at me and thought I was cute.”
“No, it wasn’t.”
“lie.”
Si-eun, full of jealousy, exclaimed and turned her face away.
It seemed that friends were not the only ones to be ripped off by their wives after marriage.

After eating, we returned to the school parking lot.
Of course, my friend offered to take me to the front of the house, but Si-eun refused. To get rid of my stomach, and to give me some exercise with him. I decided to walk back for a while.
“Both of you, go in carefully.”
“See you later!”

My friend lowered the driver’s window and waved to us. Ina, with her upper body removed from the passenger seat, was also looking at us and greeting us.“See you again when you have a chance.”
“yes. See you soon.”
Si-eun and I each returned greetings with hand gestures.
Soon after, the driver’s window went up and the car started moving towards the parking lot exit.
When the car gradually got smaller and finally disappeared from view, I held Si-eun’s hand tightly.
Si-eun’s palms were slightly warm.
“Is it cold? let’s hurry.”
Siyeon smiled and nodded her head.
The road home is not far. Still, it was far enough to dispel the feeling of a double date.
“How was your day?”
Si-eun replied with excitement.
“It was fun. Because I hear what other couples are talking about. It was interesting because I thought he was so different from us.”
“I’m glad it seemed like fun.”
“And I learned a lot.”
learned? Did you learn anything from this short double date? In the first place, there were no high-level conversations that Si-eun could imitate.
When asked with a wink, Si-eun gently waved her hand.
“For example, how to express your mind by asking strange questions.”
“Huh.”
Even now, there are times when I can’t be honest, but how much more do you want to spin it around? it’s just scary
“In addition?”
“and.”
Si-eun chuckled for a moment before continuing.
“I also learned not to be aegyo in front of others.”
“That’s it, I’m fine.”
“If you like to play aegyo in front of others, you should have wiped the sauce off without taking off the shichimi.”
You are a hundred times correct. I don’t want to make Si-eun vomit by adding an excuse. I put a lock on my mouth.
Si-eun, who looked at me like that, sighed deeply. I could see white breath coming out.
“I mean, I wanted to show it to you two.”
“What?”
“What is it?”
Si-eun after a little steaming.
“Honey too… … I just wanted to show that he is a very kind man.”
“Foot.”
“Do not laugh.”
Si-eun frowned as if she was dissatisfied with the bursting of laughter. The eyes staring at me seemed a little slanted.
understanding goes A double date is when two couples go on a date together. It’s natural to want to show off our relationship to the other couple. Didn’t I also feel a similar feeling in the middle?
It must have been the same for Si-eun. Seeing a friend showing kindness to his girlfriend, he must have wanted to prove proudly that my husband would do this as well.
And the foolish me has completely betrayed that expectation.
It wasn’t really something to laugh at when I thought about it this far. He cleared his throat and then whispered.
“Sorry.”
“Noisy.”
It was a full-bodied fish.
“I didn’t know you would think that way. Sorry.”
“I don’t know. I won’t talk anymore.”
“Sorry. really.”
“… … .”
Si-eun hesitated for a moment at the continued apology.
“I’m not particularly angry.”
He said this softly.
From the tone of the voice to the tone of the voice, there was a lot of pouting, but I wasn’t angry. It must be a lie. … … Now I know that I shouldn’t say the same thing.
Si-eun’s story continued as she was about to move quietly as a sign of reflection.
“It’s not that I’m angry, it’s that I’m embarrassed. Being amiable in front of other people.”
“Even if you are married?”
“You said the same thing before. Whether you’re married or whatever you do, it’s the same thing. I will never show affection in front of others again.”
I’m never going to do aegyo again. Maybe if I hadn’t been joking, Si-eun would have been able to show her aegyo in front of others in the future.
I made the wrong choice of a lifetime. From the depths of my heart, my heart was filled with sadness.
“I’m apologizing, so can’t you show me your aegyo as much as you like in the future?”
“no.”
“I’ll buy you some delicious food.”
“It’s not like you’re taking a little kid to the dentist. no. I will never do it again.”
“really?”
“okay. I’m embarrassed. I feel like I’m going to have fever because I’m so shy.”
“Uh-huh.”
In the conversation that continued like a joke, words that were difficult to hear came out.
“honey.”
“why?”
“You said it was cold before. Are you sure you have a cold?”
“yes? is it?”
Si-eun tilted her head slightly.
“I don’t know. I’m also a little lazy It feels a little hot. A little squishy.”
“okay. It’s just a cold.”
It kind of seemed like it. Including hot palms, isn’t it exactly a symptom of a cold?
And they even ask me to drop you off at school saying you want to do my workouts for nothing. I felt sorry and pitiful, and I felt complacent.
“If you’re not feeling well, tell me. It’s okay to go in early.”
“It’s not like that. It’s still not that much of an inconvenience.”
“Then I’m happy. Well, anyway, let’s go and rest.”
“… … yes.”
Si-eun replied as if there was something stuck. At a glance, he looked like he was thinking deeply about something.
Then Si-eun trembled so small that it was barely noticeable.
“Wait a minute.”
It stopped right away. He also released the hand that was holding Si-eun. Si-eun tilted her head and looked up at me like that.
Ignoring the gaze, I took off my coat. Then, on top of Si-eun’s cloak, she lightly laid it on.
Bewildered, Si-eun soon took a step towards me.
“what are you doing? Honey it’s cold Take it quickly.”
“done. I can stand it.”
“It’s not okay if you have to endure it.”
Si-eun speaks as if asking again.
He seems to be worried about my body, but for me, I was much more concerned about Si-eun’s body. It was also not a lie at all to say that it was bearable. If you walk home like this, you won’t catch a cold.
He stretched out his hand toward Si-eun, who was still looking up with worried eyes. Then, he tapped him on top of his head.
“it’s okay. not cold at all Alright, let’s get in quickly.”
There is no reason to delay any longer here. It would be much better to go home and warm up.
He took Si-eun’s hand and took a step forward. If Si-eun followed, I was determined to walk like this.
But Si-eun, one step behind, didn’t say anything and just stood there.
I finally looked back.
“what’s the matter?”
Si-eun looked up at me with warm eyes at my question.
“Also.”
“Also?”
What are you talking about? As he quietly waited for the words to follow, Si-eun smiled brightly.
Then, in a voice mixed with laughter.
“Also… … I think my husband is the kindest.”
added this:
What else was I going to say? Si-eun also covered her mouth and let out a small laugh when she smiled at the very charming words. “It must be cold, but I have to go.” It was with the words.
As Si-eun says, I hope you go home soon. When you enter, stay in a warm room and cover yourself with a blanket.
He gave strength to the holding hands.
“Come on, let’s go.”
“yes.”
After answering with a sweet tone, Si-eun came to my side.
