Side Story (7)
“… “
I fell silent at the principal’s interrogative gaze. It was because no matter what I said, it was clear that I would be accused of being a psychopath.
The principal spoke softly to my silence.
“Is it difficult for you to tell me?”
“… “
Nod-
I nodded instead of talking.
Then, the principal stepped back as if he understood.
“If you don’t want to talk, I won’t ask. Instead, just answer one question.”
“Question?”
“Yes, it is a simple question.”
The principal said with a smile. Is it because I have a soft personality? I didn’t bother to ask deeply about what I said about being their guardian.
Instead, the principal asked a simple question.
“Just in case. Aren’t you having inappropriate relationships with girls?”
“Boo, inappropriate relationship?”
Is this the power of age?
How far were you imagining?
However, as if my answer was funny, the principal saw my flustered face and burst into laughter as she waved her hand.
“Uhuh, not that relationship. I mean an illicit relationship.”
“Illegal relationship?”
“Yes, to be honest, children’s looks are as good as celebrities on TV. So, I’ve been thinking for a second that you’re using these kids for something illegal.”
Uncle.
Did you misunderstand me because of that word?
Well, even though they look the same age, the title of uncle makes them look a bit like that.
“I understand what you are worried about. But, don’t worry, it’s not like that.”
“I understand if you say so.”
The principal agrees easily.
Seeing her like that, Luna nodded her head beside her.
“Right! You are not doing anything illegal!”
“I don’t know the laws here, but you’re not the type to break the laws.”
Saten nodded together.
The principal smiled heartily at the warrior party.
“These are good children. Instead, ask for permission the next time you come to school. That much I can accommodate.”
How far are you going to be nice, Principal Lee?
The moment I don’t understand why they take care of our convenience like this.
The headmaster said something unexpected to me.
“More than that, student Junwoo Lee.”
“Yes, yes?”
“Are your parents well?”
“Yes, yes… How are you?”
“Then next time we meet, please say hello. I owe a lot to your parents.”
“Yes, yes… “
I’m a little nervous.
Is it because of my parents that the teachers didn’t touch me even though I was sleeping in class? More than that, what kind of relationship do my parents have with the principal?
I got unexpected information and my head was confused.
Principal Ji, who understood my feelings, stood up from her seat and said,
“Then, I think the conversation is over with this, so you can go.”
“Thank you! Wrinkled grandmother teacher!”
“Luna, that is rude.”
“Eh, that’s a compliment… ?!”
So I got up from my seat and was about to leave the teacher’s office. To send them all home, starting with these guys. However, the headmaster stopped us and said that there was still something to say.
“By the way, about that school uniform… “
“… Yes?”
“A school uniform with the name Lee Ji-hye. Isn’t this the pink-haired lady’s Lee Ji-hye? Surely, it looks like the name tag of the kid who left early, doesn’t it?”
“… “
“… “
I’m sorry.
That’s how we were able to leave the classroom after returning our uniforms.
I didn’t understand why the principal didn’t ask deeply about our relationship.
If you think about it yourself, maybe…
‘Did you think he was a foreign cousin?’
Because it’s something that can’t be explained otherwise.
With that kind of result in mind, we left school.
***
I feel strange since I leave early.
I left school early today to take the warrior party home.
When I told the principal, he said he would understand and told my homeroom teacher.
“No matter how much I think about it, I can’t understand the principal’s behavior… What’s so cool?”
“I will. You must have a lot of questions. They didn’t ask questions and just looked at us quietly. Something, it looked like someone with a back.”
Saten, walking along the road, agreed with me. Then, she began to help out, even if she sensed something suspicious.
“So… principal… ? The old woman tried to make her uncle too comfortable… I hope it isn’t… ?”
Kidduk- Kkadeuk-
Hare started biting her nails as if she felt uneasy.
She doesn’t know exactly what she’s imagining to herself, but for some reason she thinks she doesn’t have to.
“… Hareya, let’s stop thinking about that.”
“Why, why… ?”
“That is a ridiculous imagination. What is the age difference… “
“Sah, love has no borders and no age… !”
As expected, Hare is a child with dangerous thoughts. I roughly said ‘yes’ to her hare and she started walking again.
She felt strange walking down the street in her school uniform.
‘I feel like a bully… ‘
While she is alone feeling the mood of such a bully.
Sniff sniff-
Luna started to smell her in the air, perhaps curious about her street.
“What are you doing, Luna?”
“It smells! It smells delicious!”
“The area in front of the school always smells delicious. It’s a smell that students like.”
“This smell! I like it too! So am I a student too?!
“No.”
“Why?!”
“Luna, you don’t learn with your head.”
So you can’t call me a student.
Luna poked her mouth out as if she didn’t like her words and walked towards her food.
“Hey, that’s it! No matter what your father says! I will be a student! Therefore!”
Luna shouted, standing in front of a snack bar that smelled delicious.

“Because I am a student! I will eat anything that smells like this!”
“Yes, do as you please.”
Let’s see how you do it.
At my words, Luna rummaged through her pocket to see if her pride button had been pressed and pulled out one of her coins.
“Auntie! Please give me this red one!”
“If you are talking about tteokbokki, it costs 1,000 won per cup.”
Luna shouted, pushing her coin further.
“Come on! Here you go! Hurry up please!”
“Are you kidding me right now? What would she do with the toy coin-“
That would make the lady angry.
I ran quickly and stepped in front of Luna.
“It’s not a toy, it’s overseas money. It hasn’t been long since he came to Korea.”
“Is that so? But you speak Korean well again.”
“I will give you the money. 5,000 Won for tteokbokki and 5,000 won for sundae, please.”
I handed 10,000 won to her aunt and waited for her to pack. Luna was sticking out her mouth as if it was unfair.
“Chii, I have money too… “
“It’s your world’s money.”
“That’s better! It’s money that doesn’t exist in this world!”
“That is-“
Does that make sense?
“Luna.”
“Why!”
“How much money do you have? The money you have, if you want… “
I’ll go home and exchange it for Korean money.
At that, Luna rummaged through her pockets and took out all her coins, as if she had found her treasure.
“hehehe, here! Then I can buy something delicious too?! Exciting!”
“… Luna, you are very simple when not fighting.”
“Saten, do you want to change too?”
“No, that’s all right. I will change it on my own later.”
As expected, Saten is quick-witted.
After promising to exchange with Luna, I left the restaurant with tteokbokki and sundae in a black envelope.
From their point of view, everything on the street seemed to be a curiosity, but the pace was very slow.
“If I and that fast guy fight, who will win?!”
“… It’s not something made for fighting.”
“Yeah!”
“You will win.”
“Isn’t it? Of course I will win!”
Just give a rough answer and move on.
“… Mister. People keep staring at Mr. I, everyone, closed my eyes so I couldn’t see you-“
“I’m looking at you. And, it’s because I’m in school uniform. Never do that.”
“Yes, yes… “
I was genuinely scared and answered.
“This city is interesting. The roads are well laid out as if they were calculated from the time they were built. People all felt the same way. It is a very good city to govern.”
“I see… “
I didn’t understand, but I answered.
While walking and talking for such a long time. We were able to get home.
The moment you open the door and put the food bag on the table. The door to the master bedroom opened and Estiya appeared rubbing her eyes. She looked at me and took me in her arms.
“Good morning, brother… “
“It’s 12 o’clock, Estiya.”
“It’s morning for me… good morning… !”
After saying that, Estiya rubbed her face against my clothes.
Then, next to her, I smelled her nose moving her nose to see if there was a good smell.
“Smell… ! Rice! I’m hungry, brother!”
“I bought tteokbokki, so eat that.”
“Okay!”
Hodadak-
Estiya immediately sat down on her table chair and opened her black envelope.
Then, I picked up the tteokbokki with a skewer and ate it. Seeing this, Luna freaked out and started running.
“Estiya, that’s mine! I bought it to eat!”
“Where is that! Whoever touches it first must come first!”
Wagu wago-
The two ate tteokbokki while bickering.
‘If I go there, there will be no food from Hare and Saten.’
I brought a bowl and served the two of them. The two of them were eating the tteokbokki, not knowing whether they were taking the food or not.
‘When I saw you yesterday, Estiya wasn’t the type to eat well… ‘
Tteokbokki still looks good to my taste. I sat in front of them and watched them eat quietly. Luna saw me like that, picked up a tteokbokki and handed it to her mouth.
“Old man, eat too! This is so delicious!”
“No, it’s okay. Eat you.”
“Why! I’m giving it to you, so eat it!”
“No, I hate tteokbokki.”
“Really? Then I will eat!”
King-
Luna took the tteokbokki right into her own mouth and ate it.
I felt like my heart was filled with people from another world eating tteokbokki.
‘Is this gukppong? ‘
I’m full even if I don’t eat.
I don’t know if it’s paternal love or gukppong.
Anyway.
I felt like my heart was getting warmer watching them eat deliciously.
And then, at that moment.
Diriring-
A text message arrived, so I opened my phone to check.
A letter from my mother that arrived after a long time.
-How are you doing, son? In case, I was curious about what happened, so I contacted you. Anything?
Very long text.
This is the first time I’ve received such a long message.
I simply replied with a text message saying, ‘Nothing happened.’
And, I soon found out that the text was the wrong answer.
