After finishing the conversation, Dasomi noona looked at me, blinking her eyes as if asking for an answer.
I opened my mouth as I let out the filthy cough of midsummer sitting next to me through one ear.
“My sister is… … Do you like me?”
Dasomi noona tilted her head as if she didn’t understand what I was saying, then got up and started waving her hands in a hurry.
“No, no, that’s not it, I mean, I’m not asking Dojin to date you because he likes you… … !”
I spoke to Dasom, who was rolling my eyes around and spitting out words like a rapid-fire gun.
“It’s okay, so you can speak slowly. Because I know that something is wrong.”
Dasomi, who had been staring at me for a while, quickly nodded her head and sat down.
A dark shadow was cast on his face, which was reflected little by little through the drooping hair.
“… … Do you know Dojin? I’m not very interested in that. He, who he met, or who he was dating.”
“right.”
I think back to the older sister I saw when I was in college. Looking back, there were butterflies around her that always whispered love. Some, no pretty, no goddamn many butterflies.
It was not the result of just appearances. Of course, it cannot be said that there was no effect, but it was not easy to move the polyhedron of the mind by itself.
It was the scent that moved their hearts. The sweet scent that seemed to seep into the dry chest and caress every nook and cranny, eventually making them mistaken.
My classmates, seniors, younger sisters, assistants, and even those who sat next to me in a liberal arts class were convinced that this woman with a smile in front of me would have a crush on him.
But that dream never came true.
To those who passionately confessed their feelings, my sister replied that everything was an illusion, and the hearts of those who woke up from the dream soon began to fall to the floor.
Thousands of people wept in front of her sister, and burst into laughter at the rising shame.
But no one blamed her. No one was pouring out unreasonable hatred like in Yu Ga-ryun.
Rather, they were blaming themselves even when their hearts were broken.
I don’t know for sure, but if I dare to guess, maybe it was because she only treated anyone with sincerity and sincerity, and thought that the bad thing was herself, who distorted her mind and accepted it.
Obviously, they were possessed by the scent until the very last moment.
Because the scent of a woman named Dasom was so noble, quirky, and sweet.
“It’s still the same. I don’t know what to do because I like it, and I don’t have the time to do that.”
Dasomi’s noona’s face, who shrugged her shoulders, had a flower named Jajo in bloom.
“But it must also look strange to ordinary people.”
“Who is it? That he is an ordinary person.”
“yes?”
“You don’t have to go out and say something.”
As I said that, a thin breath burst out of Dasom’s sister’s mouth.
The older sister, who had been smiling for a while with a painful expression on her face, sighed and continued.
“Our parents. When he has free time, he quarrels over men’s issues.”
Dasomi noona, who wiped her face with her palm, looked very cramped.
“You call several times a week and give a speech about the importance of marriage, and if you happen to go home, you don’t make a fuss over to see a picture of a man you’ve never seen for the first time.”
“Are you saying that even if you don’t like it?”
“Yeah, until I went to college, I was okay with it, but I guess you don’t want to look at it now. If you’re older than this, you won’t have a chance or something… … .”
Dasomi noona, who was talking, frowned as if she had suddenly remembered a bad memory.
“When I went down to the Lunar New Year last year, we had a long argument over the issue. Then the doorbell rang, so I used that as an excuse and left for a while.”
Dasomi’s older sister clenched her fists and clenched them.
“You saw it then.”
“What?”
When I asked that question, my sister clenched her fists as if anxiously and pursed her lips.
“… … I came out like I was running away, so I left my cell phone on the table. But I guess I got a call from that cell phone while I was away.”
“Why?”
“When the phone is disconnected, the lock screen is displayed for a while. But that… … .”
Dasomi’s older sister, who was blurry at the end of her words, immediately looked at me with a hesitant expression and opened her mouth.
“At that time, my lock screen was Dojin, you… … Did you mean?”
“yes?”
“Gee, not now! Come on, look. Noona will never do anything that Dojin hates to you. Really… … . It’s not that the picture is weird, but he did have a party at my house on Christmas. It was because you were so cute that you fell apart at that time.”
My older sister put her phone in my face and started pouring out explanations in a hurry.
Come to think of it, last Christmas, I was sipping champagne with a frustrated heart and fell asleep.
I continued talking while calming Dasomi noona.
“It’s okay, even if it’s okay. I don’t care at all. Look, my lock screen is a photo we all took together during our club days.”
Dasomi noona looked at my lock screen and shook her shoulders as if she was startled.
“I, really. This is a picture I took when I went to Gangneung to play.”
“Yeah, remember?”
“That, then, then, then, then. not like that how can i forget How cute it was to see you splash and splash back then! Whoo, heh, all the photos I took at this time are coated and kept in the album—”
Dasom noona, who had been arguing, suddenly shut her mouth. She coughed for a moment, cleared her expression, and then opened her mouth again.
“… … Anyway, when my dad saw it, he scoured the cell phone gallery at will. But he, a very small part of my gallery, me, really, very, very, very, very small amount of Dojin and your photos were included.”
“Wait, then maybe… … .”
Dasomi nodded her head slightly and fell asleep.
“When I came back, I was holding out my cell phone and insisting that if I had a boyfriend, I should tell him why I didn’t tell him. Because Si and even Dojin knew that you were in a relationship with Do, Do, and even live together by looking at the pictures of you in my house! Oh my gosh, how could such a foolish illusion… … .”
“Even so, there is no way you can think of such a thing just by looking at a normal photograph. Hmm, was there a picture that could be misunderstood?”
There were many times I took pictures with my sister, but I never took anything that could mislead others.
“Because it really is! What the hell! What kind of photo did you see? … ?”
Dasom’s sister, who had raised her voice as if in anger and pounded her thigh, suddenly stopped.
“Sister, why are you doing this?”
“Yes? My, why am I?”
“No, your face suddenly turned pale. Is it bad anywhere?”
“Uh, uh. Yeah, I guess what I ate at lunch wasn’t very good. Cow, my stomach is churning, all of a sudden.”
“I have a digestive aid, would you like some?”
“No, I’m fine again. No need to worry.”
Dasomi noona reached out and took a gulp of green tea on the table, then opened her mouth again.
“Ah, anyway, I kept saying that that day. Dojin and you are just friends, nothing more and nothing less. Still, I can’t believe you at all. Even if I explain it, he distorts it in a strange way and accepts it, but at the end, he gets excited by himself about when the meeting will be held, but I’m really… … . Meanwhile, the holidays were over, so I couldn’t solve the misunderstanding properly and came up.”
The older sister grabbed her shoulders as if she was trembling.
“Still, I thought that one day I would catch me and solve it. But Do-jin, you know, from this year on, work has been busy, and since that day, the reminder calls from my parents have cut off, so I haven’t had time to talk. Moreover, these past few weeks, I have been too busy to take care of myself, so I have no time to worry about others… … .”
As she continued to speak, her voice gradually began to tremble.
“That was the problem. Then it didn’t happen.”
The older sister lowered her head and bit her lip, letting out a soft breath.
“… … A few days ago, I got a phone call from my mom and I answered that my dad was in the hospital.”
“What?”
“I think you stumbled. It wasn’t just a fall, it was an ankle fracture… … To the point of concussion.”
Tears welled up in the corners of my sister’s eyes, who continued to speak while chewing her lips, making it even painful for me to watch.
I asked, wiping my sister’s tears away.
“Are you okay?”
“yes… … . Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to have any major brain problems. He told me that if there were no problems with the ankle surgery, he would be discharged from the hospital in a week at the most.”
“That’s right, I’m glad.”
“… … still.”
Dasom’s older sister pouted her swollen lips and said.
“It’s been a long time since my father became so weak. Even if it disappears soon, I don’t think it would be strange… … .”
I lent my breasts to my older sister, who immediately began to sniff and cry. Then, as if she couldn’t stand it any longer, she trembled and began to vomit a watery voice.
“How can you refuse in that situation? Ugh, I can’t, I can’t, like that… … !”
“… … You said you wanted to see me?”
After hearing my words, Dasomi nodded her head up and down without saying a word.
“At first I was going to say no. No matter how sick a person’s wish is, it’s not like it’s not. But the one who suffered so much… … Dojin smiles broadly when she sees the picture of you and I… … .”
As I squeezed my voice and spoke sparsely, it felt like the worries my sister had been struggling with for the past few days seemed to come through, so my heart ached.
“I know, I know I’m talking crazy right now. but… … .”
Unusual request. It must not have been easy to say that in a situation where I felt guilty about it.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen my dad smile like that. … !”
There was depth in her eyes as she looked at me while sniffling.
