The Nature of Possession chapter 233

233 – EP.10 Belief that things will get better-2

***

Just like last time, Yoon Shia was treated to ramen by In Ho.

Cup ramen and chive kimchi on a white table.

Although she was far from a feast, Yun Sia’s mouth watered.

If I had to point out another point… Yes, it was the presence of Kang In-ho sitting in front.

Her student was sitting across from her, pouring water into the cup ramen and waiting for the ramen to cook.

“I’ll eat and go to class quickly.”

Yoon Si-ah said, her conscience pricked at the fact that she was late for class and was even getting her own food.

“You can eat slowly. Pretend to eat quickly.”

Yoon Shia looked at In Ho’s face after hearing the strangely shortened words.

I don’t think she said it on purpose to avoid paying attention to this person.

As time passed little by little, an appetizing smell began to waft through the lid.

“It’s all cooked.”

Kang In-ho muttered that, then lifted his chopsticks and scooped up his noodles.

After looking at her like that for a moment, Yoon Si-ah also picked up her chopsticks and picked up a piece of her ramen.

The meal was held in silence.

The only sounds coming from the table were the sound of chopsticks clicking together, the sound of noodles being slurped, and the natural exclamation that comes from eating spicy soup.

“Ah, it was a good meal.”

This was what Kang In-ho said after finishing a short 10-minute meal.

“Thank you, I enjoyed it.”

Yoon Shia was a person who knew shame. She thanked him with all her sincerity.

“What? There’s a lot of ramen.”

Kang In-ho got up from her seat as she said her greeting.

He picked up the trash left on the table with his own hands and put it in the sink, using a dishcloth to erase the marks made by the soup.

After a short cleanup, Yoon Sia went up to the second floor with him and conducted her class.

It appears that the studious attitude he has shown recently has continued, as the homework assigned in advance was neatly completed.

Filled with satisfaction and pride, Yoon Sia was able to continue her class with a smile.

It was the first smile she made in two days.

Shin Jeong-ah sat on her sofa and glanced at her friends drinking alone.

She looked at her beer can in her own hand.

When her snout opened, Kim Jin-tae forced it into her hand.

She sipped it with a frown on her face, as if her child was about to take powdered medicine that he didn’t want to eat.

It all cooled down and the lukewarm liquid went down the esophagus.

I definitely feel better when I drink alcohol, but that didn’t happen today.

“What’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood?”

Kim Jin-tae sat down next to Seong Yun-ho, who was squealing, patting her back with his foot.

At a close distance where her thighs touched her thighs, Kim Jin-tae put his ear to Shin Jeong-ah’s mouth.

“No, it’s okay.”

Shin Jeong-ah slightly widened the distance. The smell of her stale cigarettes filled her nostrils mercilessly.

“Damn, it’s okay… Do you know that you’ve been walking around with your face scrunched up these days?”

Kim Jin-tae said, putting a cigarette out of her front pocket and putting it to her mouth.

“…….”

“Is it because of Kang In-ho?”

At his words, Shin Jeong-ah shook her shoulders.

Kim Jin-tae raised one corner of her mouth and said, “Look at that.”

“Leave it alone. You don’t play with us anymore. Didn’t I tell you before? That she and we live in different places. It’s obvious when you see that she who lives alone doesn’t even let her friends come to her house.”

Kim Jin-tae took a deep drag on her cigarette and then exhaled her smoke toward the ceiling.

The cigarette smoke that rose upward dissipated, and the smell fell down.

“…….”

Inwardly, Shin Jeong-ah thought that Kim Jin-tae was right.

However, a small hope deep in her heart was holding on to her sinking heart.

I think that when Kang In-ho’s suspension is lifted, she will return to their original relationship.

That thought comforted her unstable mind.

Shin Jeong-ah sipped her beer again.

I still felt bad about the lukewarm temperature.

“Isn’t that bastard a bit unlucky in drawing lines?”

Seeing Shin Jeong-ah’s attitude, Kim Jin-tae carefully spoke to her.

Shin Jeong-ah showed no reaction to his words.

“It’s okay now because he’s suspended, but if he continues like this when he comes to school, I’ll…”

“Jintae.”

Kim Jin-tae silenced Shin Jeong-ah’s words as she sipped her beer.

“Huh? Why?”

Kim Jin-tae, who looked like a strong man, looked at her.

“I am these days….”

Shin Jeong-ah paused, twirling her beer can.

“There is someone who is bothering me. Can you help me?”

When the listener’s attention was focused on Shin Jeong-ah, she spoke with a refreshing smile.
