Chapter 364

I am not a returner Episode 364

Interlude – End of Vacation

Ohjin, whose eyes were bright as if he had found an oasis in the desert, soon cleared his throat and shook his head.

“No, no matter what, it’s a break and I’m not going anywhere...”

Didn’t I swear just a few minutes ago that I wouldn’t make Ha-eun as upset as she was?

I couldn’t ruin my precious vacation with Ha-eun just because I was tired.

“It’s okay, kid. “My face has become half full, so what am I supposed to do?”

Ha-eun chuckled and lightly stroked Oh-jin’s head.

Ha-eun came close to Oh-jin and leaned her head on his shoulder.

“And I really like being stuck at home like this and just rolling around.”

It was nice to go somewhere with a nice atmosphere or eat something delicious together.

There was something charming about wasting time like this, leisurely sitting on the sofa and doing nothing.

“Should we call it a staycation? “It’s similar to something like that.”

“This is not a hotel, this is a house.”

“Well, isn’t it a hotel compared to the house we used to live in?”

“Well... I guess so.”

Oh Jin laughed as he recalled the moldy studio apartment that wasn’t even 5 pyeong in size.

When I think about it now, it seems like so much time has passed that I don’t even remember.

Until just a few years ago, I lived with Ha-eun in that room-like house.

“....”

The days of struggling desperately day after day, taking care of Ha-eun, who lost one eye and a leg.

Comparing then and now, I was able to realize how much my life had changed.

“Ojina.”

“huh?”

“...Are you happy now?”

A voice that seems to tremble with anxiety somewhere.

Oh Jin nodded, gently pulling Ha Eun’s waist as she leaned her head on his shoulder.

“huh.”

So much so that there is nothing more.

To an infinite extent.

In fact, it got to the point where I worried every night that I might be having a long dream.

happy.

“okay?”

A bright smile spread across Ha-eun’s lips at the answer without hesitation.

Sigh.

Ha-eun lifted her head off Oh-jin’s shoulder and stood up.

I gently pushed Ojin’s chest as he sat on the sofa with my hand and spread his legs to the sides.

“Go back, man.”

“Do what?”

“If you’re just resting at home, you’re going to want to sit in a special seat.”

Without even having time to ask what special seating was, Ha-eun quickly sat back between Oh-jin’s legs.

Oh-jin, who was in a sitting position with Ha-eun hugging him behind him, frowned as he looked at the back of Ha-eun’s head filling his field of vision.

“I’m so uncomfortable.”

“It’s okay because I’m comfortable.”

“No, this kind of picture only appears when I am tall or when my sister is short. what’s this.”

While Oh Jin was just slightly taller than the average adult male, Ha-eun was taller than most models.

When she wears heels, her eye level is higher than Ojin.

Ha-eun, who is so tall, was leaning between her legs and leaning back like a backrest, making it a very uncomfortable and awkward position.

“Let’s go to sleep and put your hands on my waist.”

Ha-eun, who wrapped Oh Jin’s arm around her waist as if she were wearing a seatbelt, leaned against the backrest (Oh Jin) with an expression that made her feel at ease in the world.

“Ha, the fluffy one is just right.”

Unlike Ha-eun, who muttered in a tired voice as if she had just soaked in a hot spring, Oh-jin was having a more uncomfortable time in the world, with his face being rubbed by Ha-eun’s reddish-brown hair.

“Hmm.”

Unlike the uncomfortable view, Ha-eun’s back is pressed against her chest, or the feel of her skin through the arm around her waist.

In particular, Ha-eun’s outfit was very revealing, consisting of dolphin pants and a crop top, so the feel of her skin touching her was even more vivid.

“Huh~? “It’s not just fluffy, is it?”

“Noisy.”

How can one maintain one’s sanity in a situation like this?

Oh Jin frowned and tickled Ha Eun’s side.

“Aaaah! “Stop that, you bastard!”

I could clearly see Ha-eun making a fuss and shaking her legs.

“haha. “Mr. Lee...”

Ha-eun, who was breathing heavily and with tears in her eyes, slapped Oh-jin’s thigh.

“Is this bastard being arrogant and messing with my sister?”

Ha-eun clapped her hands and nodded.

Ha-eun, who was recalling memories from a long time ago, tilted her head and asked.

“But what did we talk about then?”

“That’s...”

I went back to my memory.

Memories of the first time I met Ha-eun.

The boy’s ugly secret base he built on the rooftop and the girl’s memories of entering it.

-Let’s see... If it’s a secret base, they won’t let just anyone in, right?

-Even if mom and dad come, they won’t let you in. never.

I don’t remember the girl’s face, though.

I still clearly remember what I said while smiling brightly.

-Even if you can’t be mom and dad, you can still be a sister, right?

okay.

She stepped into her secret base using such absurd force.

-lol. Now that I’m here, I have to keep calling you noona from now on?

I remember.

reminds me of

Can’t be replaced with anything.

Memories that shine brightly like stars in the night sky.

‘I’m glad.’

A smile spread across Ojin’s lips as he realized that the memory of being eaten by Heukcheon was not the memory of when he first met her.

Oh Jin looked back at Ha Eun and opened his mouth quietly.

“Well, I’m not sure.”

Although Ha-eun doesn’t remember.

Or rather, because Ha-eun doesn’t remember.

I wanted to bury the memories of when I first met her entirely in my own memories.

“Look, you don’t remember much either.”

In the end, Ha-eun, who failed to recall the memories of when they first met, swallowed heavily and patted Oh-jin on the shoulder.

“Well, what’s important about old memories? “What’s important is now.”

“...okay.”

“It’s okay, just keep your face straight.”

Oh Jin smiled slightly and nodded at Ha Eun’s words.

He strengthened his arms around Ha-eun and buried his head in the crook of her neck.

‘ah.’

I could feel Ha-eun’s shoulders trembling slightly.

Although I’m pretending like nothing’s wrong.

Although I’m pretending it’s nothing.

‘That can’t be possible.’

In fact, she probably knows it too.

The fact that memories of the past disappear is not something that can be overcome with just one word, ‘It’s okay.’

Nevertheless, Ha-eun smiled brightly for herself.

Because he knew that he would also suffer as much as she suffered.

“...sister.”

“ok?”

He continued speaking quietly.

“thank you.”

“Huh? “What do you say you have to be thankful for?”

“Just everything.”

Just the fact that I can now hug Ha-eun from behind like this.

I thought that it didn’t matter what happened to the memories that were swallowed up by Black Heaven.

“Ugh.”

Ha-eun, who was drooling with a bright red face while being held in Oh-jin’s arms, soon turned around and sat on Oh-jin’s lap.

“It won’t work.”

“What can’t be done?”

Oh Jin cleared his throat and turned his head to see Ha-eun’s face, who was so close that their noses were touching.

It was difficult to maintain my senses when I was in the position of hugging her from behind, but it was even more difficult to bear it when I was in the position of sitting facing her like this.

Ha-eun, who was sitting on Oh-jin’s lap and looking down at him, smiled mischievously and licked her lips like a wild beast that had caught its prey.

“I told you to let me get some rest today, but... is this pretty thing going to beat you up?”

“no.”

What do you mean you hit your tail?

“Hehe! “Even if you say no with your mouth, your body is honest!”

“Now wait a minute. “Ahh! My clothes are torn and torn!”

Toad duduk!

The sound of a button falling off a shirt and fluttering on the floor signaled the end of a three-day vacation.
