I Was Sick of Loving You - I Was Sick of Loving You chapter 88
88 – epilogue
A warm breeze carries the scent of spring through the open window.
Feeling that desire, he handles the paperwork on behalf of Iris.
By the time I was finishing the task I was so familiar with, the door opened and my happiness came.
“Dad! My brother skipped class again.”
“No. Ellie misunderstood.”
Now, 7-year-old Evan and 5-year-old Ellie said that and ran to me.
They were so lovely that I carefully hugged them and sat them on my lap.
“Evan, is Ellie right?”
“No. There was a little misunderstanding.”
“so? Then tell Dad step by step.”
“So…”
As Evan was about to speak, Ellie tugged at my sleeve.
“I skipped class and was sleeping in the garden.”
At Ellie’s words, Evan’s mouth fell shut.
Seeing that scene, the whole story of the incident became clear, but we need to hear more.
“Evan, is what Ellie said true?”
Evan lowered his head and did not answer.
Even that figure was lovely, stroking Evan’s head.
“Evan, it’s okay. Dad also skipped a lot of classes when you were the only one.”
“really?”
“Yes, it really is.”
I never did, but I said so so that my son would not be hurt.
“So I have no intention of scolding you. But can you tell me why you forgot it?”
“that is…”
Evan didn’t answer right away and hesitated, but waited for Evan to answer.
“My brother is not having fun in class.”
“When did I do that!”
“You said it every day.”
While waiting for Evan’s answer, Ellie hit the ball, and the two started fighting.
Even the look was lovely and I hugged her.
Then the children struggled.
““I’m out of breath.””
The voices of the children who had been bickering rang out, and I released them from my arms.
He released them from his arms and stroked the children’s heads.
“Evan, aren’t the classes very interesting?”
Evan nodded instead of answering.
“I see, why does Evan feel so uninteresting?”
“It’s no fun because I know everything.”
Evan’s words made me wonder for a moment. At Iris’s insistence, I chose a class that was a bit difficult for a 7-year-old to take, but Evan says he knows it all, so I can’t help but wonder.
“Really?”
“Yes!”
Evan’s confident answer continued, and Ellie’s expression wrinkled a little.
I couldn’t understand why Ellie was making that expression, but I didn’t care that much since we were bickering often.
“Then can Daddy check it out?”
“Yes!”
In response to the confident answer, I found a blank piece of paper and presented several problems. Evan glanced at the problems and solved them easily. Then, with a confident expression, he held out the paper. I looked through them all and they were all correct. I checked it and stroked Evan’s head.
“My Evan, my father didn’t know, but he was a genius.”
At my words, Evan smiled brightly, and Ellie put on a dissatisfied expression.
Along with the children’s reactions, my head became a little complicated.
Evan wasn’t this smart, but maybe Evan too?
I thought about it for a moment, but I quickly erased it from my mind. Such a miracle cannot happen easily. Thinking so, I erased that possibility.
“yes. Evan really knows, so you don’t have to take classes from now on.”
“really?”
“So, has Daddy ever lied to you?”
“do not have!”
Evan replied vigorously and smiled. The look warms my heart.
As the warmth filled me, Ellie pulled my sleeve again.
“Dad, if Ellie is 7 years old and knows everything about the class, can she not take it?”
“Yes, of course. You don’t have to listen to what you already know.”
At those words, a strange smile that was not like a child passed across Ellie’s face for a moment.
There was a moment of doubt at that smile, but that doubt was pushed away by Evan’s voice.
“Dad, are you done with work?”
“Well, very little left. Do you want to play with Daddy?”
“Yes!”
“Me too! Me too!”
The children’s reaction brought warmth.
“Okay, daddy will finish it soon and play, so just wait a little bit.”
“”Yes!””
The children sat on the couch and waited for me. I speeded up the paperwork so that such children would not wait too long. When I accelerated like that, the work that was not long was over.
“Evan, Elijah. What do you want to do with Dad?”
“I play tag!”
“Brother, today is my turn. Dad, let’s play with flowers in the garden.”
I had a little bit of doubt today, but that doubt completely disappeared when I saw the children who were the same as they were in the past. The place where it disappeared was filled with the lovely images of the children. it is warm
As I was thinking that, the door opened. The door opened and I saw my youngest daughter, with brown hair similar to mine and golden eyes similar to hers, hugging a doll.
“Lucy, what’s going on?”
My youngest daughter didn’t answer, but quietly walked over and took me in my arms. The youngest daughter, who was small but warm, came into her arms, and a low voice was heard.
“Go to sleep.”
My youngest daughter said that and closed her eyes in my arms. A small hand held the hem of my clothes, and a smile appeared on my daughter’s face as she fell asleep.

Looking at Evan and Ellie, he quietly opened his mouth.
“Evan, Elijah. I guess I’ll have to yield to the youngest today.”
The children looked slightly dissatisfied, but eventually nodded. I was proud to see such children and stroked their heads.
“Dad, I’ll play with you later. You are playing with your grandfather today.”
“”yes~””
With the children answering like that, I headed to the father-in-law’s room. Knocked on the door.
“Father-in-law, it’s me.”
“Come in.”
Supporting my youngest daughter, Lucy, with one hand, I opened the door. When I opened the door, I saw my father-in-law playing chess with a retired vassal.
“What did you come for?”
“that is…”
““Grandpa, we’re here.””
The face of the father-in-law, which had a sense of dignity and weight, was immediately released by the appearance of the children. The father-in-law stopped playing chess, hugged the children, and lifted them up.
“My grandchildren, are you here to see your grandfather?”
“”Yes!””
The father-in-law obviously saw the children yesterday, but he was delighted as if he hadn’t seen them in a long time.
“Father-in-law, please take care of the children.”
“Yes, yes. Don’t worry. And make this request often.”
“I will.”
I wanted to tackle the father-in-law’s words to ask for it often even though I asked for it two days ago, but I endured it. My father-in-law is reading a strange book called Grandpa’s Dignity and Kindness these days, so I don’t want to destroy his efforts.
I’m thinking about that, but seeing my father-in-law with a relaxed smile, I feel like it’s meaningless. Along with that thought came a thought.
‘If you’re going to like it like that, you can come find me first.’
Believing in the contents of his strange book, the appearance of the father-in-law who does not visit first seems foolish.
Thinking about it, I opened my mouth.
“Evan, Elijah. Listen carefully to Grandpa.”
“”Yes!””
“Father-in-law, I will go now.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
My father-in-law, who was distracted by the children, answered without looking at me. I’m used to that kind of look now.

Leaving behind such a familiar sight, I walked cautiously with my youngest daughter in my arms. The cautious steps headed for Lucy’s room and stopped in front of her bed.
Carefully, she laid Lucy on the bed, lest she wake up.
Then Lucy’s eyes opened slightly, and Lucy’s small hand grabbed my finger.
Seeing that, I realized that putting Lucy to sleep alone today was a failure.
“Dad.”
“Yes, I am with my father.”

Lucy, as always, was in my arms again. I hugged Lucy carefully.
I am worried about my youngest daughter, who is especially lonely and hates sleeping alone, but as time goes on, I think of my child who will leave me and become independent, and that worry disappears. And only one thought settled in my mind.
‘Grow only healthy and happy.’
Did he even listen to such a wind? A faint smile crept across Lucy’s lips. Keeping his daughter’s lovely figure in his eyes, he cautiously moved on. That step led to the greatest blessing of my life.
“Honey, I’ll go in.”
When I opened the door and went in, I saw her reading a book with one hand on her belly.
Then she looked at me and Lucy and smiled.
“Lucy is here too. Did you fail today?”
“Yeah, I put it down on the bed today and wake up like a ghost.”
I had a conversation with her like this yesterday, and I felt something new again. Our relationship, which at some point we stopped talking privately, our lives that not only Evan and Ellie, but also the other children, and this warm happiness are new today.
It is happy and overlaps with happiness.
“Honey, you must suffer today.”
“It’s not even hard like this, you are the hardest.”
Saying that, I carefully put my hand on her stomach. Then I felt my stomach churn. No matter how many times I’ve been through it, I’m very happy about it.
“Did you feel it too?”
“yes. Aris welcomes you that your father has arrived.”
“I named this child the same as your nickname.”
“I don’t even use it anymore, but I’ll have to pass it on soon.”
As she said that, she slowly stroked her stomach. I loved her look and kissed her on the cheek. She also brought warmth to my cheeks.
“Oh, and Bonnie, what about the other kids?”
“I left it with my father-in-law.”
“Dad will like it.”
“Yeah, he liked it a lot.”
“If you’re going to do that, go see the kids first, because you have a strange affair after reading a strange book. Whew.”
She sighed as she said that, but a smile still spread across her lips.
“It could be. If I move a little more, it will be resolved.”
“Anyway, you’re annoying.”
“No, of course you should do that much to your father-in-law. I met you thanks to my father-in-law.”
Saying so, he kissed her on the cheek again. She also brought warmth to my cheeks again. Then she saw fire in her eyes. And her hand came up on my thigh.
“Honey, you know when Aris is born, right?”
“I don’t know.”
“Knowing everything.”
“Families shouldn’t do that.”
“That’s it again. Where did you learn strange things?”
While talking like that, I felt a wriggle in my arms.
“Dad mom.”
I heard Lucy’s voice waking up from sleep, and brushed her back.
“Did you wake up because your dad made noise?”
“You made noise too.”
“Not as much as you.”

Lucy shook her head when she was talking such a joke.
“You broke the hunt.”
The words of my daughter, who was still asleep, sounded so cute. I wanted to hug her tightly, but I couldn’t because she was so small.
“My daughter, who does she look like to be this cute?”
At her words, Lucy stared blankly at her before opening her mouth.
“Dad?”
At those words, Iris burst into laughter.
“Yeah, your dad is kind of cute.”
“Honey, don’t say cute.”
“Why? It’s true.”
She smiled mischievously and pinched my cheek.
“My lovely husband.”
“Don’t blur.”
“This side is also cute.”
While talking like that, I couldn’t feel the wriggling again. In that sense, when I looked at Lucy, I saw my daughter sleeping again. Seeing her daughter like that, I was filled with warmth.
“My daughter is asleep again.”
“Yeah. I sleep well even though it is so noisy.”
Saying that, she reached out and stroked Lucy’s hair.
Then she made an embarrassing noise again.
“I’m glad I met you.”
“Are you going to say something embarrassing again?”
“I’ve been saying this for a long time, but I didn’t mean to sound embarrassing, I said I was telling the truth.”
“Yes, you did.”
“Ugh, I’m breaking everything to set the mood.”
He kissed her groaning cheek. Then, with a cold expression, she touched her lips. He lightly kissed her lovely mouth.
“Have you solved this enough?”
“No, not enough.”
“There’s Lucy, so you’re satisfied with this much.”
“You are sleeping.”
“You can break it.”
“okay. Instead, I will pay interest later on.”
“Please. wife.”
“You’re using a strange language again.”
“It’s better than being hard like the old days.”
“That’s right.”
As we talked, we looked at each other and smiled. That time, this life is so happy. I am so happy that all traces of the terrible nightmare have disappeared, and I hope that this moment will last forever.
