Chapter 180

Unlocked chapter (7/13)

[Stars, stars, stars].

After what seemed like forever, the first semester came to an end.

It was summer vacation, and Eunha was lazing around the house.

Today, he hadnt gotten up until late in the afternoon and had spent the whole day in his pajamas.

Hey, Eunha, do you want some merona?

Just some.

Unnie, I want one too!

After dinner, Euna rummaged through the fridge, still in her pajamas.

The fact that she was back home until the start of the next semester only made it worse.

She would wake up slowly, lying on the floor staring at her phone, or calling her friends at night.

Eunha could hardly believe his sister was on the phone every night.

Euna, youre going to be a high school student next year, shouldnt you stop walking around in your pajamas? mom asked.

Eunha and Eunae are copying you.

Mom, Im not going to a high school, Im entering the high school Player Academy next year.

And its okay to walk around like this. You dont know how comfortable and nice this is.

Euna turned 16 this year.

It was the age when she was getting out of her parents arms and becoming more independent.

She handed the ice cream to mom and pouted her lips.

Eunha and Eunae think so too, dont they?

Uh, um.

Eunae nodded, feeling good just because Eunha had shoveled ice cream into her mouth.

Eunha, on the other hand, had to look at his mom, who was folding laundry right next to him.

Does Eunha think so too?

Uhh.

Eunha?

.

I was stunned, caught between my mom and sister.

No matter whose side I took, I wasnt going to make it out alive.

Dad, help me!

Eunha, Im sorry.

Eunha sent his dad a saving glance, but he turned his head away without a moments hesitation.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

He was abandoned by his father.

Eunha, come here.

Then, Euna pulled out her trump card.

Lying on the sofa, she extended her long legs.

She tapped her leg, which was clearly visible under her shorts, with the hand that was not holding the marona.

Arent you going to sit on your sisters legs today?

Sorry. You know how much I love mom, right?

Eunha was determined.

After confessing his love to his mom, Eunha sits over Eunas legs.

The soft skin made him feel soothed, and the coolness cooled the midnight heat.

Turning his face to the side, he ate his merona.

Eunha took over the pillow, so I took over the wifes pillowUh Yes?

I dont like your beard because it hurts.

Thats right, Daddys beard hurts.

Daddys beard hurts!

Mom said.

Dad, who had been silent, tried to make her feel better and got a slap on the wrist from the women in the house.

Even Euna, who had been arguing with her mom over Eunha only moments before, pinched him.

Eunae was especially bad.

His younger sister, who woke up to dads beard every morning, vehemently agreed.

Haa, they said its useless to raise children with a wife. Do I have to listen to this because of my beard?

Dad sighed heavily.

Euna and his mom were stuck on their phones like they had always been.

Mom, you need to cover this place with your hand.

This?

Like you have a headache!

I dont know what you mean. Ill take a picture with my lips like I always do.

Me too! Take a picture of me too~

The three of them, including Eunae, took picture after picture in the same pose, not sure what to do.

Eunha, who was not interested in taking selfies, hugged Eunas leg with one arm and closed his eyes.

Meanwhile, Euna secretly took a picture of him.

It was time for the family to spend their time that way.

Eunhas mom, its Minjis mom, please open the door!

There was a loud banging on the front door.

The family poked their heads out of the living room, startled by the sound.

I gave up counting the stars wrapped in the moonlight one by one with my fingers.

I wondered if the night sky was so clear.

Or is it just darker tonight than other nights?

It was hard to tell which stars were shining in which way.

Its as if the starlight is eaten by the starlight.

.

The joy of being considered special by someone is indescribable.

It makes you want to hone in on your uniqueness so that you can shine as brightly and beautifully as a jewel.

You want to be the brightest star in the sky, and you want to be the moon that lights up the night sky.

Thats right.

I want to be like a Eunha.

I want to stand side by side with him.

How to explain these feelings, she didnt know.

Im, normal.

Minji murmured as she gathered her legs.

Ordinary.

The star that had once been recognized as special to the moon was losing ground to newer stars over time.

The more people who learned his charm gathered, the more ordinary she was.

Lies. Eunha and the kids are playing with Seona. Youre not copying him, are you?

Her mother said one day.

At that time, Minji responded reflexively, but she was not sure about her answer

Minji, stop crying, stop yelling, and look at your mom. Isnt it true that the kids are playing with Seona so you have no choice but to play with her?

I want to become a shining star.

Not just any shining star, but one embraced by the moonlight.

I wanted to be special, not like other people.

Thats why I might be following the cranes to avoid falling from the moonlight.

Please, write down your name!

Thats what happened this time.

I helped Seona because I felt sorry for my friend, but I also felt compelled to help her because I knew that if I didnt do anything, I might not be able to stand by his side.

And I realized.

I realized that one day I might not be able to stand by his side.

I had to have the strength to shine brighter than the other stars.

Mom. I dont want to go to middle school, I want to join the Player Academy.

Are you crazy! Im trying to find a middle school with a good admission rate, so dont say things like Player Academy and do as youre told!

When I decide to become a player, its not just because I want to shine.

I also wanted to get away from my parents shadow.

Minji, you just need to listen to your mom. Youll go to a good school, get a good job, meet a good guy there, have kids in a nice house, and live happily ever after.

You may not like it now, but youll thank me later, so listen to me.

Of course, the future my parents are designing for me will be a stable and happy one.

But its not really me.

The future her parents envisioned was not a future for Kim Min-ji, but a future for anyone else.

It could be any star in the night sky.

She wanted to be a star that shines until the end, like a dying star enveloped in her own light.

She wanted to leave not just her name in this world but her existence, Kim Minji.

I absolutely cant allow you to become a player! How could I let you! Ive raised you with so much effort! If you make a mistake, you could end up dead!

Mom, I want to live doing what I want to do! Even if I regret it later, I want to regret after doing it, not regret for not doing it!

Thats because you havent really experienced regret yet! If you have talent that could make you an outstanding player, who knows! But you dont have any talent like that!

The reason she left home today was because she and her parents were arguing about her future.

The arguments between myself and my parents were endless, like parallel lines that never crossed each other.

Finally, I had enough and left home.

In the middle of the night.

Ah! I got bitten by a mosquito.

There were a lot of mosquitoes in the park.

After scratching her arm frantically, Minji realized that she had been bitten and deployed the barrier.

The mosquitoes couldnt penetrate the barrier.

What can I do, I cant stay here, my mom and dad must be worried.

I had to get back home.

My parents would be worried.

But it would be ridiculous to go home now.

Theyd look at me and say, What kind of a player is that, unable to do anything on her own?

Ill go in after mom and dad fall asleep.

Even though she set up the barrier, the buzzing sound nearby was still loud.

Her neck itched.

She scratched it, and it suddenly swelled. She didnt know if it appeared before or after she made the barrier.

She felt incredibly lonely.

Minji buried her head in her knees.

Hoping that this unusually bright night would pass.

What are you doing outside instead of going in? How about it? Isnt it tough when you leave home?
