Just Us
Chap 47's

Hye-in looked around the luxury apartment. If it used to be when she was still considered a daughter by her father, seeing an apartment like this she wouldn't be this nice. But after that incident, he was amazed to see it. On the one hand he was happy, but on the other he also felt unworthy of the kindness of Daejung after what he did to the man first, even he still can't forget the last time they met, where he hit Daejung's head with a vase. Even though he was unintentional, the guilt lingered in his heart, even his memory of the incident continued to spin like a broken cassette.

"Da-daejung-ah.ak-I think this is too much. I mean, I could live in my modest flat first. Or else I can live in an apartment more simply than this" Hye said in a little nervous

Daejung approached Hye in, he grabbed the woman's arm, he looked at Hye in's face

"Hye in-ah listen to me, you might be able to stay in your flat, you might as well choose to live in a simpler apartment. But Hye in-ah aren't you thinking about Hana eoh? Wouldn't you feel sorry for your daughter if you'd rather stay in those places? She needs a wider and more comfortable place for her to grow and develop Hye in-ah. Not only in terms of place, but we also have to think of good air circulation for him. Hye in-ah I don't mean to demean or underestimate the two places, I just want you to think more about the growth and comfort of Hana" explained Daejung

Hye in stared at the bead as dark as soot, the eyes she had always longed for, the eyes she had always looked at with love, the eyes she never tired of looking at. The woman lowered her head, took a deep breath and then raised her face again

"I feel unworthy of your kindness Daejung-ah. I'm ashamed of what I did to you. You're too good Daejung-ah, I-I...."

"Ssttt. It happened a long time ago, I have forgiven you and I have forgotten it too. So you don't have to think about it and apologize for it anymore. Now all you have to think about is how to raise Hana well, raise her without any lack of one thing - affection or material, either, and the most important thing is to educate her so that you can grow up to be a great, tough girl like you. You are not alone in educating Hana, Hye in-ah there is me, I will be here beside you and always help you in caring for and educating Hana" said Daejung with sincerity

Hye in's eyes dewy and after that her tears rained down the woman's cheeks. He did not expect that it turned out that Daejung's heart was as soft and extraordinary as that, he thanked God for sending a man as good as Daejung for him. He regretted that he had wasted a man as good as Daejung, if time could be replayed, he would improve everything, improve his attitude first, improve his relationship with Karina, and suppress his emotions and selfishness first.

"Gomawo Daejung-ah, I don't know how I should pay for this kindness of yours" Hye in replied

Once again Daejung clenched Hye in's body, he rubbed the woman's head

"You don't have to answer Hye in-ah, you just do what I asked you to do" Daejung said

Instead of subsiding after hearing Daejung's words, Hye in was even more stunned in her tears. He did not know what else to say to the man who was still holding him, but he clearly promised from today he would do anything for Daejung's happiness.

Daejung took off the hug, then she wiped the woman's tears

"Not crying anymore, I don't want to see your tears shed again. Now that you can put Hana to sleep, I think she's tired. Your room is as if on the second floor of the brown door, I've asked someone to clean it, and for your things I'll bring you later. So after that you clean yourself up, I'll wait for you here. There are things I want to talk to you about" Daejung said

Hye in smiled and nodded, after which the woman climbed the stairs and did what Daejung said earlier.

Meanwhile, Chunghee and Karina are staring at a television screen featuring an animated film that Karina chose. In front of them were two cans of fizzy drink and some snacks on the table.

Karina rests her head on Chunghe's shoulder, while the shoulder is still focused on the film

"Chunghee-ah" call Karina

"If you're reborn later, what do you want to be born as?" Karina asked with her head still resting on Chunghee's shoulder

"Birds" Chunghee replied

Karina's forehead wrinkled, the woman then straightened her body towards Chunghee

"Wae?" Ask

"You know, those birds they're free. They can go wherever they want. But no matter how far they go, they will still return to their homes" Chunghee explained with a body that now faces Karina

Karina nodded her head

"You yourself, if you're reborn. What did you choose to be?" Ask Chunhee

"Tree" replied Karina

"Wae?" Ask Chunhee

"I want to be in the same place where I was born and grew up. I want to protect and be a coolant as well as a backup for people who are near me. I also want to be home to the birds again, just like what you said earlier" Karina replied with a smile of money resulting in a beautiful arch in her eyes

Chunghee's heartbeat beat faster than usual after hearing Karina's reply. What did Karina's reply mean, did the girl keep a taste to her? Does he want to be home for her to return to?

Too struggling with various questions in his mind, the man did not realize that Karina had called him

"Yak Chunghee-ah!" Karina Screeches

Chunghee shook her head trying to drive those questions out of her mind. The man was surprised when he found Karina's face so close to him, he could even feel the girl's breath.

Their eyes locked, as if fascinated with a pair of beads from each. Likewise, with Karina beating the girl's heart was also pounding irregularly, her intention had approached to surprise Chunhee, but why did it end up in this position. The girl closed her eyes, their noses touching each other and.....
