154 – Sergeant (Complete): Episode 153
＜1＞
The entire dormitory where my classmate was a squad leader was being weeded.
I saw him grazing even though it wasn’t working hours, so I asked my classmate.
“Why are you tearing up weeds the day before you are discharged?” “… “We have the apple that came out last month.”
“Uh. “One box of apples per person?”
“Uh. That. No, an apple in the morning, an apple at lunch, and an apple in the evening. I’m angry because even with side dishes, they only give me a box of apples. The apple is crushed and the juice comes out on the stem. “How did you handle that?”
“I just ate it all.”
“That?”
This year was a good harvest of apples, so each soldier in our unit received a box of apples.
I ate apples whenever I had time, but other soldiers secretly threw them in the trash.
Is that a problem?
“Did you get caught throwing it in the trash?”
“No, Hangyeol. Listen to me. “Did I make such a big mistake?”
“So what happened?”
“I secretly buried it in the mountain behind me with my squad members.”
I was momentarily shocked by my colleague’s words.
“Did you catch that?”
“No, even the asking was perfect. The elk cubs came down to the garden that the battalion commander was tending, and the battalion commander’s garden was ruined. The battalion commander was so angry that he went to catch the elk himself. Why is this? Do you see apple scraps every time you follow the elk’s footsteps? Then I got caught.”
It was an interesting story, so I followed along and listened to the story.
“That’s funny. “But you didn’t go to military shift?”
“I almost went. They say I am in violation of the Military Supplies Management Directive. “But isn’t it more environmentally friendly than throwing it in the trash?”
I said to my classmate while holding my stomach and laughing.
“It was eco-friendly. Hey, pull it out there too.”
“You b*tch… ! Ugh. Okay. In the military, it’s the fault of the guy who got caught. “Still, I’ll be discharged tomorrow, so I’ll endure it.”
“I could go to the military twice.”
“You’re crossing the line… “
“Sorry. “It was a little harsh.”
Now, there really won’t be any more military visits.
Ha… It seems like it was really eventful from trainee to sergeant.
Still, I felt like I had an easy life because there were a lot of good people there.
“Hey, aren’t you taking the tax accountant exam this month? “Aren’t you studying?”
“I did enough. “What are you studying the day before you are discharged?”
“Yes. “I have to prepare to be beaten at night.”
“I am a good soldier in the military so I will never get beaten. “I guess you are right.”
“Is that really the case?”

“Definite victory. Dormitory 1 evening roll call personnel report. “A total of 4 members, no vacancies, and 4 current members. Preparations for evening roll call are complete.”
“Uh, okay. “Are you guys going home tomorrow?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
The officer on duty glanced at me.
“Hangyeol. You should drive the stake in.”
“I’m sorry. “I have a lot of regrets about society.”
“Or get discharged and join as a non-commissioned officer. “I’ll be good to you.”
“I’m sorry. “I have no regrets about the military.”
“Is that so? Anyway, you had a hard time. Come on in. “This is the end of roll call.”
Immediately after the duty officer left, his successors came to Dormitory 1.
The sound of footsteps walking with eyes full of life could be heard from inside the dormitory.
Of course, my successor also came in with a grin on his face.
“I’m here to congratulate you on your victory.”
“No. Are you hitting me too?! “You did a really good job.”
“We will especially cover Lee Bam with blankets, high blankets, and even copper bedding.”
Contemporaries stood up in response to the special treatment given by their successors.
“Hey! “Why is only Hangyeol given special treatment!”
“But Lee Bam was good to all of his successors.”
“We couldn’t do this?!”
Several successors nodded.
That’s right. Be kind to your military life.
“I will turn off the lights~”
I quickly wrapped myself in a blanket, high blanket, and copper blanket.
Eventually, the lights went out and a series of chants broke out.
Of course, the shock to me was very minimal and I could only happily listen to the cries of my classmates.
“Thank you for your hard work~”
“Congratulations on your discharge~”
“Go home safely~”
As the successors left one by one, the dormitory became quiet again.
“Ugh… I thought I was behind. “Is Hangyeol okay?”
“Why don’t kids hit me?”
“It’s such an injustice. “I thought I did a good job.”
“I hit him to congratulate him. “Does it hurt a lot?”
“It’s worth holding on. hahahaha – it’s really a discharge though. It finally feels more real now. “I was wondering when I would finish my military service.”
“Congratulations.”
“What are you doing tomorrow? Are you going to meet your girlfriend right away?”
“Uh. That’s how it should be. “I have to give you a ring too.”
I never wore a couple ring while dating so far, so I got one this time.
Of course, I would like flower shoes, but I thought I would like rings more.
I was already looking forward to seeing what kind of expression Eunha would make.
“A real girlfriend is waiting for you…”
“Ha-I want to marry him quickly.”
“Huh? “How do you get married at 22?”
“You never know~ I’ll send out wedding invitations when I get married.”
“Okay. Ugh-! Let’s sleep quickly! “I want to go home quickly.”
“Yes. Sleep well~”
It was the night that ended my second life in the military.
＜3＞
“Victory! Report! Sergeant Lee Han-gyeol and three others were ordered to be discharged from the Republic of Korea Air Force as of today. I am reporting this! Definitely win!”
“Yes. Don’t get into trouble just because you’re having so much fun today. It’s been a hard time. Don’t talk for long. Stay healthy even when you go out. More!”
Next, we gave our final salute to the slogan of the non-commissioned officer in charge of human resources.
“United units at attention. Salute to the battalion commander!”
“Victory!”
“Definite victory.”
The battalion commander also accepted the salute today with a kind smile.
“Exactly. “This concludes the discharge ceremony.”
After the discharge ceremony was over, I got on the bus straight out of the base.
My successors saw me off and I got on the bus smiling happily.
I ended my military service with the sight of the last real army visible out the window.
“Good-bye!” See you later!”
“Hey~ Contact me~ Bye~”
I got off at the terminal, said my final goodbyes to my classmates, and headed straight home.
Even though it was my second discharge, I couldn’t help the corners of my mouth turning up.
With lighter steps, I took a taxi and headed home.
I ran up the stairs two at a time and pressed the front door lock.
I wanted to quickly see the galaxy, so I opened the front door, but the door stopped opening halfway because of the safety ring.
Eunha heard a rattling sound and walked towards the front door.
“Gyeol?! “Has the result arrived?!”
“Yes, yes. “Eunha~ I’m here.”
“Wait a minute~!”
Eunha closed the door again and unfastened the safety ring.
When the door opened again, there was Eunha smiling happily.
I was so happy that I immediately hugged Eunha.
“Eunha~ I’ve been discharged!”
“Yes! Thank you for your hard work! “You really had a hard time!”
“Ha… “I’m so happy to think that I can now be with Eunha every day.”
I hugged Eunha a little tighter.
“I like it too. I love it. “Let’s not fall apart now!”
“Yes. I will never fall from now on. Let’s stick together every day.
“I’m so happy that Gyeol is discharged from the military.”
Eunha seemed happy and snuggled deeper into my arms.
We made eye contact and then kissed our lips.
“hehehe.”
“Eunha looks happier than me~?”
“Maybe so~? “Ah, I’m so glad that I can now sleep with Gyeol every day.”
“I’m happy because now I think I can wake up with Eunha every day.”
“That’s right! “You can’t go anywhere now~”
“Yes. “I won’t go.”
“Come in quickly~ I’ll help you unpack~”
“Wait a minute~”
As soon as I finished hugging Eunha, I carefully took out a small box from my pocket.
As soon as she saw the small box, Eunha’s eyes widened, and although I was embarrassed, I slowly opened the box.
“What is this?”
It was my first time giving a ring as a gift to a woman.
I was also very embarrassed and unfamiliar, but I couldn’t do anything for Eunha’s sake.
There was something I had been thinking about for several days, but suddenly I couldn’t remember it.
It doesn’t matter. All you have to do is say what’s on your mind.
“Eunha. Thanks for waiting. Love you.”
Tears welled up in Eunha’s eyes at my thank you.
Although she was smiling happily, tears were falling from Eunha’s eyes.
“I installed the coupling too late.”
I carefully held Eunha’s left hand.
Slowly and carefully, he lifted Eunha’s hand and placed the ring on her ring finger.
“I thought about it a lot, but I’m not sure I like the design!”
As soon as I put the ring on, Eunha hugged me again.
“So pretty! I like it very much! I’m so happy… !”
“Really? Thank god. “I thought about it a lot.”
“Thank you. Thank you for leaving the military in good health, and thank you for giving me this gift..!”
Eunha shed tears and said thank you.
“Stop crying now~ It’s not even enlistment day~”
“I love you. Gyeol-ah. Love you… !”

“I love you too. But I also have to wear a ring.”
“I’ll wear it!”
Eunha suddenly got out of my arms and put a ring on me.
Eunha smiled as she held her ring-wearing hands together.
“It’s pretty… !”
“I’m glad you’re happy.”
“Yes! I like it very much… ! “Are you hungry?”
Eunha smiled brightly and said.
“I’m hungry.”
“Then?”
“I’m so hungry for the galaxy.”
At my words, Eunha placed her lips on mine.
“Then eat it quickly.”
“Yes. “I will~”
Now we have to stick together every day.
“Gyeol-ah~ Come quickly~”
“Go now~”
