157. It’ll be okay.
Her Clover After driving her older sister to her hotel, I decided to have a few more drinks with her at her accommodation.
I was the one who recommended it first.
Because if I leave her sister alone now…
“Luca. “It’s really okay to go.”
My older sister stumbles on her legs with her bulging eyes.
“No, no. Sister, she stays with me until she goes to bed today. Or should I sleep together too?”
“It doesn’t matter…”
If you say that, that means I can’t leave.
We bought plenty of soju, disposable items, and simple snacks and started our own second round.
“I have no confidence in losing that person… What should I do…?”
Maybe it’s because I drank more alcohol. Is it because Taemin oppa passed away?
Rover confided her true feelings to me more honestly.
“I… I… I still really love that person.”
My sister lowers her head and sheds tears.
I hugged her and stroked her head.
“…Sister. I know that?”
“What?”
“It may be a bit unexpected, but should I tell you about my boyfriend?”
“Taemin’s story?”
I was wondering if it would be okay to talk about something now.
“My boyfriend. “I don’t know who it is.”
“I met you today, how do you know?”
“I mentioned it briefly on TV, but I guess you didn’t see it.”
Instead of answering, her sister blew her nose.
“My boyfriend. “Although it was only for a short period of time… you worked as an actor?”
“Really?”
“Yes. There are also videos on the internet. “It was even our company.”
“If you were an actor from YM, you must have done really well, right? “He was really handsome.”
It’s hard to answer.
“Hmm… I think it would have worked out well if I had continued?”
“What? So you’re saying you’re not doing it now?”
I brought out stories from the not-so-distant past one by one.
Even the reason why we met was kept a secret from others.
“Hey! “Wouldn’t you almost have exploded Closer if you did that?”
When the ending was told, her sister’s bloodshot eyes became round and irritated.
“A. “But I don’t think the company will let me go.”
I was confident, but it was true that I was scared.
“Wow. “There was such a serious incident and you didn’t even tell us?”
“How can I tell you… Especially since Nipper will try to kill me if she finds out?”
It wasn’t a joke, it was real.
At that time, I heard something about the incident of calling her ‘oppa’ and ‘dad’. If this story got to her ears, she might throw me in a blender and throw me away.
“Still, it’s cool. It’s a doya. But I don’t think I can do that.”
As if resigned, my sister closed her eyes.
“Because our problem is.”
My lips were trembling.
“Because it won’t go away unless I quit Clojure.”
“If it was a problem that the company could have done something about, I would have at least whined like you…”
I couldn’t bring myself to tell people to stop using closures right away, so I just groaned and spit out the solution that came to mind.
“No. That brother! Do you know how much your sister earns? “Did you show us our settlement money?”
“Yes. “I showed it.”
“I don’t know exactly how much teachers make, but they earn much more than ordinary office workers. “You still don’t like it?”
Rover smiled at my words and raised her hand to stroke my head.
“Luca land. “It’s a baby.”
“No! “What kind of baby am I!”
“You too will understand with time.”
She stood up from her squatting position and brought my coat in front of me.
“Now go in. “Thanks to you, I feel a lot better.”
“…Really?”
“Yes. Thank you. Luca land.”
“I really don’t mind sleeping.”
My sister shook her head.
“I’m waiting for my boyfriend. “I feel sorry for Taemin, so I can’t let him sleep.”
“Chi…”
Standing in front of her front door, I hugged my sister once again.
“Sleep well. Sister.”
“Go in carefully. “It’s Luca.”
“If you want to sing again while you’re in Seoul, call me anytime!”
My sister nodded her head with a very sad face.
“Then shall I go? “Call me if you need anything?”
I turned away from Seojeong, who had been waving her hand until the moment the door closed, and slowly went down the elevator and walked out to the lobby.
I have to call my brother…
I felt the tension loosening as I was suddenly left alone.
From noble mtl dot com
Even though I was drowsy, my hand moved my fingers to keep my promise to her brother.
[Hello.]
[Huh… It’s my brother…]
I feel this good just by hearing your voice.
How do I break up with someone like this?
[What is it? Are you coming home now?]
Those words of concern made me feel very warm.
I tried to be cute to him by twisting his pronunciation one more time.
[This is a hotel… I’m so drunk…]
[Ah. Call me for the address. I’ll just take a taxi now.]
[Taxi…? It’s expensive…]
[No. Then, what should I ride and pick you up? I don’t even have a car.]
I was going to tell them anyway, so I obediently wrote down the address and sent it to them.
[Keep your wits about you and wait. I’ll leave right away.]
[Wow…]
I stare at my phone blankly even though the call was hung up.
Clover must have had times like us.
There are times when I feel happy just by looking at your face.
…It’s scary.
This thing called a Virtuber.
Will it one day become a wall that separates us?
As time passes, my brother also prepares for a job… And when he becomes an adult…
Do I wish I didn’t have to do this…
As I wiggled my fingers and teased the awkward sofa seat for a while, I heard a welcome voice from the other side.
“Kim Do-ah!”
“Huh? Mr. Lucario~”
I wave to my handsome boyfriend.
“Hey. “Why did you drink so much?”
“Why did you drink so much… Because my sister is sad… Let’s drink together…”
“Phew… You don’t feel sick or have a headache anywhere?”
“Ugh… Nothing…! Idols don’t fall down like this…!”
“…Really.”
My brother’s big hands held me tightly, as if I was playing a claw machine.
“I can walk.”
“I’m doing this to get there quickly because the taxi man is waiting outside.”
“Chii.”
After being dragged out, I was forced into a taxi and we sat side by side to go home.
“I’m sleepy…”
There was plenty of space in the back seat, but I found myself leaning my shoulder next to my brother.
What am I today?
A lot of affection from my brother.
It seemed like a much needed day.
“Let’s go in and sleep quickly.”
My older brother strokes my head as if to comfort me.
I liked the warmth, so I pulled his hand towards me and let him touch my cheek.
“…Oppa.”
“Why?”
“Will Rover be able to get along with her boyfriend again?”
My brother didn’t respond for a moment and then sighed briefly.
“Okay. “I hope it goes well.”
“Sister… It seems like you still really like that person.”
“I heard you’ve been together for a long time. “It’s worth it.”
“I hope we can meet for a long time…”
When I hinted at letting go, my brother kept pulling my cheek.
“Why don’t you say something like that so sweetly?”
“It’s just… Mongaa… I keep drinking with you, so even I feel sad…”
I felt like I would burst into tears if I said more here, so I just suddenly fell into his arms.
Alcohol was also a problem.
It wasn’t such a pleasant feeling to have my emotions out of my control.
“Please pay with this.”
When I arrived in front of the house, my brother who took the card picked me up and took me home.
“Ugh… Doya… Now let’s go lie down.”
“Ugh…”
The feel of the soft bed felt very comfortable.
Good things should be shared.
I stretched out my arms and lifted the blanket up to the sky.
“Oppa! “Where are you going?”
“Me? “I have to go home.”
“This is my brother’s house, where are you going!”
I don’t know what I’m talking about, but one thing is clear.
I don’t want my brother to leave now.
“Oppa… I’m leaving you behind because I’m a Virtuber…!”
“No! “When did you say I was a Virtuber?”
He laughed as if he was embarrassed, sat down on the bed and lowered his upper body.
“I like you being a vertuber. “Doya.”
“…Really?”
“Yes. Really. I was a punk from the beginning. “Before I knew you.”
That’s right… Oppa… It was chewy broth…
“But are you okay? “Since you’ve been drinking, I think it would be better to sleep comfortably.”
Instead of answering, I grabbed his wrist and pulled him toward me as hard as I could.
“What? “Why did you become so strong?”
“I can do it harder.”
My brother, who was sitting on top of me in an awkward posture, smiled.
“Doya.”
“Huh?”
“Do you want to kiss me?”
…I don’t usually ask, so why are you asking at a time like this?
“…It smells like alcohol.”
“So you don’t like it?”
Ah. What do you keep asking?
I felt like he was teasing me, so I suddenly headbutted him on the lips.
His hot breath clearly proved that he was by my side.
“…Doya.”
When our lips parted, a white thread with a strange light was connecting the two of us.
“…Yes.”
“…We will be okay.”
He didn’t tell me what was okay, but I thought that was very reassuring, so I slowly took my time.
I closed my eyes in his arms.
