Chapter 82


“Why is everyone coming to visit me?”


Sukjae wrinkled his face when he saw his son .


Jaegun answered as he put down the box of juice


“Eat one after you eat food . ’


“Why did you buy so much? I have so much to eat . It’s better to move . Do you think I can stand up because I’m so full . ”


“Dad, what are you talking about . You can’t even walk yet . Ah, you know you like it . I know you listened to the radio yesterday . ”


“Stop talking about useless things . You and your mom forced a sleeping person to listen . Ugh so irritating . I can’t see the TV . Move . ”


Jaegun moved while smiling slightly .


Sukjae was looking at TV show that he never watched . Jaeyn laughed at that .


“Ah, I need to go home . I need to bring dad’s clothes . ”


“I’ll go . You stay . ”


“Just go together ok?”


Sukjae said, but the two siblings didn’t respond . Jaegun went outside, and Jaeyn started to cut an apple


“Is that your son?”


A woman in her 50s asked from beside .


She was another patient like Sukjae who had one leg fractured . She came here a lot and chatted a lot .


“Yes . ”


Sukjae just looked at her slightly to be polite . He had no intention of trying to talk with her . She talked to him, but they were all statements bragging about her family


“You know, the economy isn’t very good… it’s hard to get a job . ”


He already knew about the things she talked about . She thought Jaegun was unemployed . He knew because of experience .


Sukjae didn’t respond and only looked at the TV . But the woman, like always, was continuing .


“But then, my son is pretty lucky . When he graduated, he went into HG, and he’s staying there well for three years . It’s hard to even to get into such a big company, but it’s harder to survive there . I’m proud but really worried . ”


“I see . ”


Sukjae responded dryly . It was her power to talk about things without anyone to talk to .


Then she even asked him a question .


“How old is your son?”


“He’s 28 . ”


“Ah, I see . He’s one year younger than my song . Then he’s not a student . Sigh, it’s hard to live . I don’t know when the economy is going to get better . ”


Sukjae stayed silent, but Jaeyn was different .


She answered while cutting the apples .


“I see . My brother is a writer, so good thing it doesn"t affect him that much . ”


“Writer? A novelist?”


“Yes . ”


The woman sighed heavily .


“An amazing thing . Sigh, a writer is a hard job to live unless your a top one . Isn’t it?”


Jaeyn knew that she was slightly insulting her


Listening, her words were very insensitive


“As my son, I think his salary is about 50,000? I mean that’s good enough since he’s alone . How much is your brother’s salary? Nothing else but… haha, I’m curious of what young people make . I don’t know if my son is earning well . Is 50,000 enough?”


“I don’t know . My brother earns about 2 million . ”


The woman’s smiling face froze .


Jaeyn gave an apple to Sukjae .


“2 million… . ? His salary is … 2 million?”


“Not salary, but monthly . ”


“Mo, monthly…?”


“He’s a writer, so it’s a bit awkward to say salary . Seeing the money that comes in from the projects every month, it’s about that much . I’ll be back after seeing a nurse .


Jaeyn left answering like it was nothing .


To the shocked woman, Sukaje asked while giving his apple dish .


“Do you want one?”


TL - REKTTTTTTTED!!!!!

“I brought all the clothes, ah yes . ”


Jaegun turned around as he was about to leave the house .


He was about to bring a few books for his dad .


‘I’ve haven’t been in here in awhile . "


It was his dad’s study and his storage room . Since he wasn’t in a good relationship with his dad, he wasn’t here for a few years .


There were so many things in one corner .


In one wall, books were stacked up to the ceiling .


They were all his dad’s book .


‘Wow, my dad read j.a.panese novels?’


Jaegun pulled up a book in interest .


As he looked at the book, he leaned against a wall .


But it wasn’t a wall but was a pile of books .


“ACKK!”


The books fell apart .


When Jaegun moved his arms from his eyes, the room was filled with books .


“To make this mistake…”


He bent to lift up the books .


He saw a box that was hidden in a corner .


The box was open .


“ . . . !”


Seeing the things inside the box, Jaegun froze in place .
