20 – ‘Forgive Me’
“Then I’ll be back. I get along well.”
“..Yes.”
My younger brother Seon Woo-yoon speaks in a low voice while watching me leave the house with a greeting.
Looking at her, who is still blunt even after about a month since she was discharged from the hospital, I started to feel the same bittersweet feeling as ever.
‘Once. Nyale said that time would solve the problem, but waiting for that time isn’t easy…’
Since I was a younger brother who had been lying in the hospital and dying, I wanted to see him smiling brightly again as soon as possible.
However, apart from my nervousness, I could say that Yooni’s condition is improving little by little, just as Nyale said.
After being discharged from the hospital, the shadows cast on her face as she often went outside were removed to some extent..
In addition, since she is supposed to go back to school in time for the opening of school soon, I was hoping that this would be an opportunity for her younger sister to regain her bright side again.
‘Okay.. For now, let’s not be impatient and watch slowly. There won’t be any major problems in that child’s life from now on…’
Actually, when I think about it, it was a little funny to think about this.
In the past, there were countless things that required a lot of patience to conquer the world.
Among them, there was even a situation where he had to keep his head down for more than a year, hiding his identity and being absorbed in secret tactics, so compared to then, this situation now belongs to the light axis.
But, despite that, the nervousness that doesn’t go away easily.
I made up my mind again about this, but automatically a bitter smile began to form on my lips.
‘In the end, no matter what the mahou is, the only person standing in front of her younger brother is her older brother… That must mean it?’
Although the immediate discomfort was a problem, I thought that this wasn’t such a bad feeling when I thought about it that way.
In the first place, what I wanted to be was not a king who rules the world, but a brother who heals his younger brother and watches him live happily.
And while thinking about that,
I went down the elevator alone, got out of the Apad, and started walking towards a nearby park.
At first glance, it looks like he just went out for a walk.
But…
Considering the meaning behind it, this wasn’t such an ordinary action.
The reason why I am standing here alone at this moment, without Nyalle, who has always been with me.
That’s right…
“Sunwoo… jin?”
“… “
I hear her voice in my ears
Regarding this, I pretended not to know for now and started walking my way quietly..
That b*tch reacted to my actions.
My ex-lover and a traitor.
Lee Hae-na spoke to me in a voice filled with even deeper urgency.
“Now.. Wait a minute.. Jin! At there!”
“….Ha..”
Hae-na, who clings to my behavior of ignoring herself.
Regarding this, I turned my head toward her, pretending not to know, with a cold smile inside.
*
‘Finally..’
The person I finally met after a long two days of waiting.
Looking at Seon Woo-jin, Lee Hae-na hurriedly approached him.
Seon Woo-jin walked forward, ignoring her voice the first few times.
But in the end, as if he couldn’t ignore Lee Hae-na’s voice, he started looking this way, and Hae-na started to have a small expectation about this fact in her heart.
‘That’s good… No matter how much you ignore me, you can’t just do that. Even if it looks like this, it’s because I was that man’s lover.’
Although she had a history of striking the back of the head of the man in front of her with splendor, he has always shown a hostile attitude towards her.
However.
‘I don’t know if it’s someone else… But if it’s Jin, maybe?’
The man Seon Woo-jin he knew was a good person.
A person who has shown that even if he does something wrong, he will go over it with a smile and try to respect his requests as much as possible because he is her lover.
If you look at it well, it’s good, and if you look at it badly, it’s like a ghoul, so I understand.
From noble mtl dot com.
While thinking that way, I understood that she approached the man carefully.
Looking at her like that, Seon Woo-jin said in a voice filled with her cold chill.
“You remember when I told you not to appear again?”
“… Oh yeah… Ji.”
“You show up again knowing that? Do you think I look so funny?”
“Ah.. No, never like that. I… I just came… No matter how much, I just wanted to tell you a story… And apologize.”
“Apology?”
Seon Woo-jin expresses a bit of surprise and doubt towards Hae-na, who speaks unexpectedly.
Looking at him like this, Lee Hae-na said politely, thinking that the other person had bitten the bait.
“Yes, apologies.. Although it is late..”
With those words, I Hae Hae slowly lowered her head towards Jin.
Then, a story of deep apology that seemed to come from the heart began to flow from her mouth.
“Actually… The things I’ve done to Jin so far have bothered me so much. No matter how much it was, it was only because I was blinded by the position of an A-class hunter that I committed such a thing… It always hurts my heart when I think about it. In addition, it happened that you left Olympus, so stop it..”
“Before that.”
The next moment, Seon Woo-jin speaks with a voice full of determination.
Understanding this, I had no choice but to stop her words for a moment, and Seon Woo-jin spoke to her in a cold voice.
“First of all.. I wonder if you know what you did and say that?”
“Uh.. Yes.. Muh.. Of course.. I know it well. I’m here to apologize for that.”
With that, Hannah began to bow her head even more deeply, and then a rough outline of what she had done began to flow from her mouth.
She leaked Seon Woo-jin’s family history to the upper level after being caught up in her temptation in exchange for her position as an A-rank hunter.
Although at the time she thought it was an extremely simple task, the result was greater than she thought.
Since then .. Seon Woo-jin has literally lived a life of being treated worse than a dog, using her younger brother’s illness as an excuse.
And in the process, I understood that I deliberately broke up with Seon Woo-jin because I couldn’t continue to maintain her relationship with Seon Woo-jin due to the overwhelming guilt.
This was the rough outline of the events she was talking about.
Upon hearing that, Seon Woo-jin quietly began to nod her head.
“So.. You did it because you couldn’t overcome the temptation of the moment. You mean that?”
“Uh.. Yes.. Right.. Muh.. Of course, I know very well that what I did was wrong even if I apologize a hundred times. Ha… But this was not someone else’s order, it was Director Seolyoung Lee’s order. From my point of view, it was an offer that was not easy to refuse.”
“Hmm..”
“Really… I’m really sorry… I should have told you anyway. Lee Seol-young said that if he carelessly spoke about this, I wouldn’t be safe either, so stop…”
Lee Hae-na makes excuses and apologizes while shedding tears.
Seeing her like this, Seon Woo-jin maintained her silence for a while.
She looks as if she is contemplating how to accept her apology.
And after a while…
“Haa… “
Seon Woo-jin lets out a deep sigh.
Then he asked cautiously, looking at Hannah’s figure in front of him.
“Well, from the point of view of an office worker, it can be said that it is unavoidable.”
“… Yo… Forgive me… Are you doing it?”
“..Remember, once, but never twice.”
“Go… thank you! Really… Thank you so much Gina!
I Hae Hae with a deep smile on her lips at Seon Woo-jin’s words.
Then she bowed her head again and again, thanking the man in front of her eyes.
With this, she was genuinely happy that she could carry out her plan she had been thinking of.
And at that moment… Without even noticing the man’s emptiness in his eyes as he looked at him.
