Chapter 195 – Confectionery
Next day.
Shoot aaaaa-
The rain, which I thought would stop, couldn’t get any stronger, and the wind got even stronger.
Some of the boats floating on the river were blown ashore and were half destroyed.
The weather was so bad that we had no choice but to tie it up for another day.
“Goddess Kefia must have been angry. What- can’t you do anything about it? Come back tomorrow There is no captain, no matter how crazy he may be, to launch a ship in this weather.”
These were the words the captain, who was tying the shipment tightly with a rope to prevent it from blowing away in the rain and wind, saw Seo-jun.
Seojun shook his head.
Even Seo-joon couldn’t change the weather.
Wearing his raincoat deeply, Seo-joon made his way to the market place, breaking through the rain and wind that raged on the port.
Most of the doors were closed due to inclement weather, but the place Seo-jun was going to was fortunately lit.
Daughter and daughter-
As I opened the door and entered, an old man turned his head.
“Give me some sugar.”
The old man shook his head at Seo-jun’s words and filled a leather pouch full of sweets.
“How much.”
“One silver coin.”
“Cut it down.”
“No work.”
The old man was so bad-tempered that in the end he couldn’t even cut a single fairy tale.
I put the bag of sweets in my pocket to keep it from getting wet, and hurried back to the inn.
The raindrops got thicker, and the sky flashed – brightened, then rumbled – and began to roar with thunder and lightning.
Ki-Ik-
As soon as he entered the inn, Seo-jun took off his raincoat and pat-patted off the water.
Rattle-
Doors and windows swayed as if they were about to break in the gust of wind.
The day was like this, so all the sailors were full of taverns.
Everyone knew that on a day like this, drinking and sleeping was the best way-.
But when Seo-jun came in, weren’t some of the sailors sitting there raising their heads secretly and staring at them with sharp eyes?
Ahh, these are the guys who were left last night.
I’m sure you’ve heard Dalson’s fucking all night long-.
Seo-joon approached Dalson, touching the corner of his mouth.
He gently pressed her shoulder as he lifted her heel to retrieve her glass from her shelf, then reached out and took her glass instead.
Oh-
Startled to find out who it was – Dalson, surprised, didn’t say much thanks.
Instead, her ears were blushing, and pretending not to see Seo-joon, she hurriedly walked away to pour her beer.
Thanks to that, the little guy standing behind Dalson was Jameson- Anyway, he glared at Seo-joon with a pouty face.
At first glance, I felt a subtle yet strange atmosphere between my mother and Seo-joon.
Seo-joon crouched down in front of him and took something out of his pocket.
It was a sugar confection made by applying grain syrup to fruits or vegetables. It was something Seojun had just bought.
“What is this?”
As expected, the guy glaring at Seo-joon with a rough tone-.
Are you trying to make me look like a thief who will take away my mother? When Seo-joon suggested it again, it was the guy who immediately accepted it, probably because of the sweet smell that tickled his nose.
“Try it.”
He was a guy who thought for a long time whether to eat or not at Seo-jun’s words, but when Seo-jun smiled and nodded his head, he put it in his mouth as if he was possessed.
Then, as he shuddered, his rugged face gradually loosened.
“Drink…!”
He was honest for his age.
Seojun took out one more. But the moment the guy reached out and grabbed his hand, he avoided his hand.
“…?”
The moment his eyes widened and he was about to burst into tears, Seo-joon patted my cheek and said,
“I’ll give you a kiss.”
A kiss is something special-, the guy immediately sold his lips for a party.
My mother sells her pussy, my son sells his lips-.
He is the son of that mother.
As soon as their lips touched the cheek, Seo-joon handed over the sweets.
The guy put it in his mouth and mumbled for a long time. This time he rolled it around in his mouth without even chewing, trying to eat longer and longer.
Dalson, who had just come out of the kitchen, was surprised to see Seo-jun with him – quickly put his hand in his son’s armpit and snatched it from Seo-jun as if protecting it.
“Ooh, what are you doing to my child…?”
“Drink! Give me more! Give me more!”
When he struggled and whined to be put down, Dalson had no choice but to put it down, and he immediately approached Seo-joon and kissed him on the cheek.
With a smile, Seo-joon brought out another piece of sweets.
The guy put it in his mouth and sucked it again.
Dalson, who watched the series of scenes, shook his head. Then, as if to take care of it, he cleared the table again and began to move his glass.
Glimpse-Seojun, who looked at Dalson’s eyes, said while gently brushing his little boy’s hair.
“Hey.”
“Don’t say hey! My name is James!”
“Yes, Jameson. You mean, do you know that your mother is pretty?”
“Huh! My mom is the prettiest in the world!”
“What if you lived with your mother and her older brother?”
The guy who seemed to be thinking for a moment, narrowed his eyes and spat out.
“····No!”
At that, he fell in, as the sailors who watched as they tilted their glasses laughed and giggled.
Instead of answering, Seo-joon took out a bag and a bag from the front shelf. He munched on much more than he had just eaten. His eyes were twinkling and his teeth were salivating.
“I really hate it?”
“I hate poetry.”
“Really?”
“Oh no, no-. Joe, Joaaa.”
As I waved the sweets back and forth in front of the guy’s eyes, his pupils followed him around.
Seo-joon threw it into the guy’s arms. Then he muffled his voice and whispered in his ear.
“I’ll give it to you every day from now on.”
The boy’s face brightened with anger.
Seojun also laughed.
Just in a slightly crooked shape-.
“`
Little by little-
“Stop eating.”
Little by little-
“James···!”
Little by little-
Pack-! Taking the sugar and the bag, Dalson lit a twin wick when he realized that he had already eaten a lot of it.
I asked him to eat in moderation, but he didn’t listen at all.
“She said what happens to her when her mother eats a lot…?”
“Your teeth are all rotting…?”
“Okay! But do you eat all that much? I can’t. This is confiscation.”
Wow wow-
James immediately burst into tears.
The guy who had never been severely scolded for not having a father cried, sadly.
I knew that crying like this weakened my mother’s heart.
The children were clever. I naturally realized how to effectively handle adults.
After biting his lip, Dalson gave James another piece of candy without hesitation.
She stopped crying right away, but it was clear that she would start crying again after she ate the sugar candy she popped into her mouth.
It was all because of that man.
If you just throw in sweets, you think it’s everything.
I didn’t even think about raising a child-! If your habit gets worse like this, won’t you whine about tomorrow, sand, and blood!
How much money do you have to buy it every day? What about the child’s dental health?
Snorting at Dalson, he slammed the rag he was holding onto the counter.
The sailors who watched the series of scenes bowed down.
It was because he knew that there was no turning back when Dalson got angry.
Again, the guys thought. Whether it’s Ha Seo-joon or something, I’ll never see him again…! Do.
Darson took a big step forward, threw the door open, and went straight out.
Shoot aaaaa-
The rain and wind raged, so I quickly closed the door to keep the rain from entering the room.
“There! In that position, you have to strain his thighs and hold on!”
The man’s voice was heard. It seemed to be in the backyard. Raising his hands above his head to keep out the wind—Dalson trotted toward the backyard.
“Ian! You bastard…!”
Bang-!
The man Dalson was looking for kicked the blond young man. A woman approaches a young man who kicks him in the chest and makes a mess on the floor, asking if he’s okay.
“Stand up, kid.”
The blonde young man shook his hand saying it was okay and stood up with his teeth clenched.
The black-haired man, Seo-joon, began to say something to the young man again.
He said that his posture was wrong – what did he say – Dalson looked at Seo-joon’s back as he continued to say such things in the rain.
I didn’t even notice that the hem of his clothes was getting wet, and I stared at his cracked back muscles that he had thrown off his top. Unbeknownst to me, my stomach was getting stronger. I heard that his toes curled up.
“Dalson…?”
Seojun looked back.
Dalson, who met his eyes, was startled. And he remembered the reason why he came to Seo-joon through the rain and wind only belatedly.
“Now, I want to talk to you for a moment.”
“Ah, yes. You do.”
Seo-joon shook his hand to tell him to take care of himself and came closer to Dalson. With every step he took—his boots were wet—there was a squeezing sound.
As Seo-jun approached and stood in front of her, Dalson pursed her lips and opened her mouth.
“That···. I mean my son.”
“Oh, wait a minute.”
Seo-joon cut her off abruptly, then he grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her to one side.
Uh uh-? Caught and dragged by Seo-jun, she was able to stop under her eaves.
The eaves were narrow, but enough to avoid the rain.
Seo-jun picked up the dry cloth he had thrown there and wiped her damp face.
She said no—even shaking her hand didn’t work. She looked down with black eyes, and she told him to stay still, then she moved her hand again.
After wiping off her water to some extent, Seo-jun asked.
“So? What about your son?”
“…”
Dalson forgot what he was about to say.
Her face was hot all over. All she could do was stand still, cup his fingers and exhale while Seo-jun wiped her face and squeezed the moisture from her hair.
“Dalson?”
“Ah···! That, that-.”
Dalson, who came to his senses only belatedly, quickly corrected his expression as if nothing had happened.
She smiled as usual and stammered out her words.
“I-I don’t want to give sweets to my son, James, in the future.”
“I just wanted him to eat something tasty.”
Dalson twitched his toes at Seo-joon’s expression, which looked a little downcast.
“Gee… Still, please don’t do that in the future. It doesn’t help at all in raising children.”
Seojun, who was shaking his head at Dalson’s words, asked back.
“Then what can I do to help?”
“···Yes?”
“Isn’t it hard? From the looks of it, the inn work seemed difficult-. Besides, raising a child fully is not an easy task. It’s normal to raise a child alone.”
“···Yes.”
Seojun’s words brought tears to Dalson’s eyes.
She thought that everyone would not know, but Seo-joon calmly pointed out her pain.
“So why don’t you find someone to share the burden with?”
“···Yes?”
In response to Dalson’s question, Seo-joon grabbed her hand and lifted it up, pressing her lips against the back of her hand.
“Let’s get married, Dalson.”
“…Mu, Moo, Moose is-!”
Dalson was startled and quickly took the back of her hand out of Seojun’s hand. Her face flushed all over, and she couldn’t even catch her breath.
“If you want to play around, find another girl!”
And then I went into the inn.
Rumble-!
Her door closed, and Dalson leaned against her door and ran her fingers through the soaked apron.
Dung Dung Dung-
To her chest-, her heart thumped.
Very much-.
