40 – Episode 40
“Please come back~”
“Yes, take good care of my son.”
“Yes”
Today is the day I go on a date alone with Seo-ah.
“Are you ready?”
“Then of course”
Seo Ah lightly spun around and showed off her clothes.
In fact, Seo-ah only has a few sets of clothes, so she wears the same clothes every time, but she changes them to skirts, pants, dresses, etc. Every time, trying to create a different feel as much as possible.
“Now that I’ve been working part-time for a long time, I’ve saved a lot of money!”
After school, Seo-ah came out every day, came home, ate, and then left home again to help her grandmother and her grandfather at their soup shop. On other days, she was making money by doing flyers or working part-time at a supermarket.
“Are you used to it now?”
“Of course”
Originally, we said there was no need to do so much, but Seo-ah was adamant.
She said that the reason she can eat, sleep, and wear clothes here is all thanks to me and my family, but she can’t afford to eat forever. She said she would at least pay for her food and clothes herself.
Meanwhile, the cost of living in a house was not mentioned, potentially showing the idea that this is my home.
“I wanted to help too…”
“It’s okay, if she helps you, how is it any different from just getting pocket money from her?”
“I received pocket money in the past, so you should receive it this time..?”
When I said that jokingly, Seo-ah laughed and said,
“That’s it! “It’s because I spend too much money on games and hobbies!!”
“Chii..”
After checking the kitchen and making sure all the lights were off, we got ready to go outside.
“Okay, let’s go out!”
“hahahaha, what a solemn expression? “Do you have any clothes you want me to wear?”
“Hmm.. That’s not true, but for some reason, I get excited when I go out on a date with you.”
“Ah! Don’t suddenly talk like that! “It’s embarrassing.”
So we got in the elevator and left the house.
“Ugh.. The sun.. Is so bright”
“What kind of vampire are you? “Let’s go quickly.”
Seo-ah naturally took my hand and led me to the bus stop.
“Aren’t you going to the department store..?”
“If I want to live there, my hands are shaking and I have to spend all the money I’ve saved?”
Oh, right?
It was a time when the minimum wage was not yet high, so I did not make much money.
“I’m just going to buy simple clothes today.”
“Okay”
The outlet mall in the neighborhood where I took the bus with Seo-ah.
“Okay, shall we go find the treasure?”
Seo-ah walked ahead with great motivation.
“Was buying clothes that good?”
The thought disappeared after a while.
“Now, we are selling very high quality socks at a low price! First-come, first-served basis!”
“Jihoon, here’s your bag”
“Uh…? Okay?”
Seo Ah jumped up, dug into the crowd, and rescued her socks.
“Oh”
She looked like she was about to applaud, but Seo-ah felt a little embarrassed.
“Somehow I feel like I’ve become an ajumma”
“It’s okay, you can’t be a lady.”
“I didn’t mean that, but… thank you.”
We got very cheap socks and then wandered around the clothing store to buy clothes.
“Oh my.. Wow.. Hello, customer?”
The staff was surprised to see Seo-ah’s face, but she took her heart again and introduced her clothes one by one.
“Umm.. Jihoon, how do you look?”
Seo Ah brought her clothes to herself and asked.
“It’s pretty?”
In fact, no matter what Seo Ah wears, it looks like her model is wearing it, but it’s hard for my eyes to tell that.
“Uhm.. Not like this”
“This?”
She asked about other clothes and I told her what I thought.
“This isn’t it either. Okay, let’s go somewhere else.”
Anyone who sees me may say something about me, but really, I’m pretty in everything.
And she knows my heart better than anyone else.
“Then how about this?”
“…Wow, it’s so pretty”
“Okay, I have to do this.”
Seo Ah saw my reaction and bought her clothes
When I married Seo-ah and went to buy her clothes together, I was curious and asked her.
“But why do you live by my reaction?”
“It’s natural because you live to show off.”
“Really…?”
“Then is there anyone else I can show it to besides you?”
After that, I always followed Seo-ah every time she went to buy her clothes, and each time Seo-ah saw my reaction and made a decision.
And after a while
“I have to stand for a moment”
“Yeah, why?”
I stopped at a jewelry store
“This”
“Yeah, what..Ah”
I noticed an arm and called the clerk.
“Please give me one of these.”
“Oh, are you giving it to her girlfriend?”
“Yes! Sure”
The clerk smiled and took out the sleeves and wrapped them.
“Do you want to kick it right away?”
“..Is that so?”
Seo Ah watched her for a while with her arms around her.
“Is this a gift you give because you like it?”
“Yes, it’s a gift I gave you because I like it.”
We walked along smiling at each other for a while.
“They sell ice cream above. Should we go there?”
“Good”
Seo-ah and I bought some clothes and went to the ice cream shop.
“What do you want to eat?”
“Let’s look at the menu for a moment”
Since there are no kiosks yet, I had to order from a clerk.
“What do you want to eat, Seo-ah?”
“Hmm.. So what should we eat?”
Seo-ah doesn’t really like sweets, but I like sweets, so I always eat different things from Seo-ah.
“I’ll have vanilla”
“Okay, I’ll order here.”
So we settled down and started chatting.
“The sports competition was fun”
“So Seo-ah unfortunately came in third place.”
We took first place, second place was in class 7, and third place was in class 3.
“It’s okay, I was satisfied anyway, and it was more surprising and nice to do something with her friends.”
“Then that’s a good thing.”
“Now that you think about it, what are you going to wish for?”
“Ah, wish?”
As Seo-ah said, I won her wish bet and was able to make one wish.
“Hmm.. I see.”
I started thinking about what wish to make.
Of course, I have many wishes for Seo-ah, but the reason I am worried like this is
“Seo-ah will do everything anyway, so is the wish meaningful?”
“hahahaha, is that also true? What should I do with this??”
Seo-ah told me to use it carefully and took her ice cream and ate it.
“Is it delicious?”
I chose chocolate and Seo-ah chose vanilla.
As the saying goes, other people’s rice cakes look bigger, I was curious about Seo-ah’s ice cream.
“Ja”
Seo-ah brought the ice cream closer to me.

“Thank you”
I tried some ice cream and nodded.
“It’s delicious”
“Give it to me too~”
“Okay, now~”
I also handed the ice cream to Seo-ah, and Seo-ah and I tasted each other’s ice cream.
“Phew, something suddenly occurred to me.”
Seo-ah said something suddenly occurred to her and with a loving expression she asked if I would sell her a gift.
“Huh?”
“You and I used to go on dates often while being embarrassed by each other.”
“Oh, then?”
While Seo-ah and I were in entertainment, I would go see her every weekend and go on dates together.
I think we walked around feeling embarrassed all the time.
“Ah! Hello, Seo-ah!”
“Jihoon, it’s been a while”
“So, we finally met after a week.”
Seo-ah and I, who we hadn’t seen in a long time, had our first date at a department store.
“Here”
There were many department stores in Seoul, and we entered the department stores to escape the hot summer.
“Wow, that’s refreshing”
“Right? When it’s hot, it’s best to come to a place like this.”
“hehehe, I see?”
I was excited to see Seo-ah after a long time and took her to explore the department store.
“Miss Seo, there is this lounge, she is very spacious and has a lot of space to relax.”
“This is a place with a lot of women’s products and clothes that Seo-ah can see. Seo-ah, do you have any clothes you want to try on?”
“Mr. Seo-ah?”
Now that I think about it, I looked at Seo-ah, thinking of her who had not said anything for a while.
“Puhup.. You look like a child, Jihoon.”
“Yes!? “Me..Me?”
“Yes, you often look like this. You talk about something you are interested in or know well about.”
“I guess you like department stores.”
“Well.. That’s actually why I came to visit with Seo-ah.. I was so excited hahahaha.”
When I told her the truth, her eyes widened in recognition.
“Ah..Ah! “Okay.. I see!”
Her face turned red and she stood behind me.
“Well.. Then shall we go the same way? “She wants to see more.”
“Is that so?”
Although awkward, I continued to explore the department store with a sense of humor.
“Don’t you think this will suit Ms. Seo well?”
“Yes?”
As we were walking down the street, we entered an accessory shop and a small arm caught our eye.
“Is this… Selling?”
“Yes, I think it would suit Seo-ah well.”
Seo Ah looked at her price list carefully.
“No, I don’t think she’s suitable for me.”
“Would you like to try it on?”
“Yes?”
A clerk suddenly appeared and suddenly came in and kicked her arms.
“Pretty…”
Seo-ah noticed that she liked it as she looked at her shiny arms, so I secretly went to the clerk and handed her the card.
“What do you think? Do you like it?”
“..Yes, but it’s expensive and doesn’t suit me.”
“No, there’s nothing that doesn’t suit Seo-ah.”
I looked at Seo-ah like that and looked down at her arms again.
“I’m just giving it to you because it’s pretty and I feel like giving it as a gift.”
“Yes..?”
“Payment has been completed, customer”
“Yes, thank you”
“Uh… Just a moment”
“Hello”
We said hello to the clerk and left.
“I can’t accept gifts like this. I haven’t given you anything yet.”
“It’s okay. I’m not giving this as a gift because someone gave it to me. I’m giving it as a gift because I like that person.”
“…Because I like it”
“Well, Seo-ah, you’ve never done anything like that? “Have you ever given or received a gift from anyone?”
Seo-ah thought for a moment and then
“That’s right, it’s a gift.. I like it.”
“It’s not like you don’t like the gift, right?”
I bought it blindly, but… If I don’t like it…
“Oh…No! “I’m very happy and I’ll cherish it for the rest of my life.”
“Oh, how much is it?”
“No, I will treasure it for the rest of my life.”
