Episode 22
It’s been a while since Honam Danga was noisy. This is because Jang Sam-tae, Dan Woo-hyeon, and Nam Gung-cheon Sadohak, who had headed to Gansu, returned.
Even though Jang Sam-tae had not even fully recovered from the fatigue of the journey, he continued to cook with a smile on his face, wondering why he was in such a good mood.
“Try some of this, Somi!”
“It’s really delicious.”
Dan Somi, who was looking at it from the side, had sparkling eyes. The moment a well-stir-fried vegetable entered my mouth, it felt as if it was melting.
Dan So-mi smiled, showing that indescribable feeling on her face, and every time she did that, Jang Sam-tae became even more elated.
“Hehehe, is it really delicious?”
“Yes, of course. “The food Uncle Jang cooks is really delicious.”
“Haha! Yes, that’s right! “I am the best!”
Looking at Jang Sam-tae, who was laughing out loud, Dan So-mi smiled. Then she moved the hem of her skirt around as if showing off and asked.
“It suits you really well, doesn’t it?”
“Yes, yes! Goes well! “This is what I bought in Gansu!”
“Hehehe.”
“Hahaha!”
Dansomi knows.
Where did Jang Sam-tae go and why did he buy these clothes?
I gave it to Dan So-mi while thinking of my dead sister, so I thought just putting it on would touch Jang Sam-tae’s heart.
Even though he was still young, his thoughtfulness for others was remarkable.
“By the way, did anything interesting happen?”
“iced coffee? Oh right! A lot has happened. This Uncle Jang
...
Dan So-mi never left Jang Sam-tae’s side.
Even if I repeated the same words all day, he listened with a smile. It may be because of her kind heart, or in some sense, because she really liked Jang Sam-tae.
Mae Hyang, who is watching from the side, looks even more sorry.
“Ugh... stop it. I’ve been holding on to my child for several hours already. Don’t do that to my daughter...”
“What are you talking about!” Somi is my daughter too!”
“Hehe, uncle, there is only one father for me.” Somi Dan cut off her words.
He’ll listen to everything else, but he doesn’t seem to want that one. Jang Sam-tae’s face, which had been smiling for a while, hardened, and he looked dumbfounded, at a loss for words.
However, Dansomi still stood up with a smile on her face, whether she knew it or not.
“Then I’ll just leave. “My dad is waiting.”
“That... that’s right... that... Somi.”
“yes?”
“Are you sure I’m not like my dad?”
“Of course hehe. What are you talking about? “Uncle Jang is, um... like a friend.”
Jang Sam-tae froze with a shocked expression.
Mae-hyang, too, seemed unable to say anything and was only looking at the back of Dan So-mi, who was running away from there at a brisk pace.
“Chi friend....”
“That’s immature.”
“I know!”
Jang Sam-tae became angry at Mae-hyang’s harsh words.
Dan So-mi, who left the kitchen where Jang Sam-tae was, suddenly slumped her shoulders with a downcast expression, different from the smile she had just moments before.
It is certainly a good thing that people have returned, but recently, the name of Honam Danga has continued to rise and fall throughout Agyang, making it impossible to go out properly.
Even strange people were wandering around, and there were even cases where people I had never met approached me in a friendly way and started talking to me.
These situations were weighing heavily on Dan Somi, who was still young. It wasn’t something the child could easily endure yet.
“I’m not angry.”
“So... so... I can see it.”
“Hehe, right? So, from next time, whenever you go somewhere, be sure to take me with you. “It’s like a guard dog because it’s guarding the house.”
Dan So-mi, who was saying those words, made eye contact with Dan Woo-hyeon and immediately clapped her hands.
“Oh right! “Did you hear that?”
“What do you mean?”
“There is a rumor coming from the streets of Ayang. Something about a group of people destroying a certain place
. “What is extinction?” Dan Woo-hyeon kept his mouth shut.
It’s extremely difficult to know how to talk.
What I feel when I look at this child now is like looking at Miho when I first met her.
Is it because he absorbed that child’s beads?
It felt so different from when I was young.
“Hehe, Somi is okay. I don’t care about those rumors. But it’s a little uncomfortable. Why do people secretly avoid Somi?” His eyes sparkled and he asked for an answer. It was indeed a reprimanding look and
tone, so in the end it was none other than Dan Woo-hyeon who raised his hands. He smiled and patted Dansomi’s head.
“I’m sorry. “I feel like I put you through a hard time.”
“Hehe, I wish you knew.” In the end, he was getting angry.
Dan Woo-hyeon swallowed a groan and broke into a cold sweat.
They say that children can’t handle it at this age, and I felt a bit bitter as I wondered if this was the case.
“By the way, can we go somewhere after fishing today?”
“Do you have somewhere to go?”
“Yes, leave everything behind and just be with Dad.”
“It’s okay... It’s been a while since you two, haha.”
Dan Woo-hyeon didn’t think it was bad.
A long time.
Although he grunts, he doesn’t move away from his side and even seems unwilling to let go of the hand he is holding. As a father, I couldn’t pretend not to see him acting like a child.
“So where are you going?”
“Hmm... I have a place in mind... Tsk! “Oh, I already got it!”
After thinking for a moment, Dansomi quickly lifted the fishing rod. A large fish fluttered about on the line, and Dan Woo-hyeon laughed as he watched it.
Still, that strong luck didn’t seem to go away.
“Because?”
Dan Woo-hyeon asked while slowly gathering the meat that Dan So-mi had caught. I even wondered once again where he was saying this because he wanted to go.
“Hehe, it’s a secret. But it’s not that far.”
“Hoo... I’m really curious about that. “Is it a nice place?”
“Is it a good place... a slightly special place... a place I wanted to go but didn’t have the courage to go...?”
Dansomi giggled.
A shadow appeared on his face for a moment, but he soon smiled brightly and clenched his fists.
Eventually, he stood up vigorously and folded the fishing rod.
“And it was also a place where I thought I would definitely go with my dad.”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
“Hehe, I’m sure Dad will like it too. Otherwise... I might feel sad.”
“Hahaha, you’re saying something interesting. I’m... sad?”
“ruler! Let’s hurry and come back before the sun sets. “I’m sure he will be very happy to see his dad.”
Dan So-mi reached out and grabbed Dan Woo-hyeon’s hand.
I guess he liked the warmth so much that it stuck to him and didn’t come off easily.
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at Dan So-mi like that and did not erase the smile that formed on his lips, but gently stroked her head as if it were the day he first saw her.
