big.
This is my first impression upon arriving at the accommodation.
A house that looks like it came out of a drama.
Both the 1st and 2nd floors combined.
At a glance, it looks like there are five or six more rooms.
The furniture is a bit old though.
So that it seems trivial.
The two-story high ceiling overwhelmed us.
“Wow. This is no joke.”
Exclamations burst out of my mouth without my knowledge.
The gaping mouth just wouldn’t close.
He kept turning his head left and right with his eyes wide open.
Of course, it wasn’t just me.
The children were surprised too.
“Wow. It looks like the house I saw on TV.”
“It’s huge. It’s incredibly huge.”
Sohyun likes Junwoo and jumps around.
Da-eun blinked her eyes, as if she was surprised.
Excited kids.
As soon as you take off your shoes and enter the house.
In an instant, he jumps up to the second floor.
“This is my room.”
“No. It’s my room.”
I followed the kids up to the second floor late.
The children were already jumping on the bed.
The sight of those kids having so much fun.
sincerely.
“Stop. Stop.”
I was worried about the bed springs. The kids were so happy, I might have to ask for just the right amount of matrix value. I thought about that and waved my hands anxiously.
After calming the kids down by gesturing with my hands and feet,
“First, let’s unpack and get ready to go. We’re going to the water park in a bit.”
I asked him several times to please be quiet. After giving him that firm warning, I left the room.
And then, belatedly, I started to slowly look around the interior.
One, two, three… What is that? Is that a room too? I counted the rooms with my fingers. There were more rooms on the first floor. One room per person should be enough. No. But there’s still room left.
I heard it was a regular condo, so I thought it would be similar to an apartment.
Rather, it was closer to a luxury home. I was surprised that there was a place like this inside a resort building.
While looking around like that, I came down to the living room on the first floor.
Counting rooms like a country bumpkin.
I happened to see Director Lee coming out into the living room.
“Mr. Director Lee. How much is this roughly?”
I asked the price. I just asked without thinking much about it.
“I don’t know either.”
The director shook his head at my question.
“Didn’t the manager make the reservation here?”
“No. My brother caught it.”
“Yes? This representative?”
He tilted his head.
The siblings seemed to get along well, but he didn’t seem like a very warm older brother…
When I looked at him with such a puzzled expression, the director answered as if it was no big deal.
“Isn’t it because of Youngjun? I said I was going with Youngjun. Didn’t he make the reservation himself?”
“··· It’s too late. I’ll cancel my reservation and move the room.”
After hearing the answer, I started to pack my bags with all my heart.
In the first place, he’s not the kind of guy I want to get involved with.
I don’t think a representative would make such a fuss…
Still, I felt a little uneasy.
“Leave it. It’s the season anyway so there are no other rooms.”
“··· It bothers me.”
“Then what am I going to do? I’ll just be bothering you more.”
That’s why.
That’s what I’m saying.
I just hate that bothersome thing.
As I looked at him with resentment, the director shrugged his shoulders and snickered.
‘It’s none of my business.’
Well. There’s nothing I can do. The representative… I guess I’ll just have to avoid him. While he was sighing to himself like that.
In the meantime.
“Let’s go quickly. Let’s go quickly and have fun.”
Manager Chae came out into the living room.
Before I knew it, I was dressed in a swimsuit.
He urges us on by clapping his hands.
“Okay. I’ll just change my clothes and come out.”
The chair the director was sitting on was pushed back.
Director Lee disappears into the room like that.
I just watched that scene blankly.
“What about the director?”
Manager Chae tilts his head and looks at me.
Then, I silently pointed at my body with both hands toward the agent.
I think Manager Chae is misunderstanding something.
I was already prepared a long time ago.
**
Manager Chae and Director Lee wore rash guards.
The kids were all wearing swimsuits.
Only me.
“As expected, Youngjun.”
“Honestly, it’s not really new.”
He was wearing a t-shirt and shorts.
I’m already used to hearing that kind of nagging.
“Okay. Please hurry up and come in.”
I just listened with one ear and let it go out the other and entered the water park.
The moment you cut the ticket and come inside.
“Wait a minute. Is this right? Just to ride that slide, I have to wait an hour?”
An exclamation burst out of my mouth without me knowing.
The line is the Great Wall of China.
It was a crowd that seemed like it could easily hold off an army of several hundred thousand soldiers.
“of course.”
“It’s a must-take course!”
“You absolutely must ride this.”
If I say something wrong, everyone, regardless of age, will glare at me.
I felt like no one would take my side, so I just kept my mouth shut and quietly waited for the line to move.
The line slowly moved away, and before we knew it, it was our turn.
“I guess we can take the kids down one by one.”
Manager Chae grabbed So-hyeon’s hand first and got on the tube.
“Wow!!”
Sohyun’s loud scream passed by once.
Next.
Junwoo and I paired up and rode a two-person tube.
The tube passes through a tunnel-like area and gradually drops down.
Wow. I could hear Junwoo’s shouts every time I passed a steep course.
It was a similar ride to a roller coaster, but it wasn’t that scary. It was moderately fun for my standards.
So I was somewhat satisfied.
however.
Then the moment of standing in line for the rides.
“Do I have to wait another 30 minutes for this too?”
I ended up forgetting that it was fun.
A ride similar to the Viking. It was a six-person tube. It went up and down on a U-shaped track.
I thought I knew why Manager Chae was urging me on. It wasn’t much different from an amusement park.
I haven’t been there. How would I know? That’s a roller coaster and this is a Viking, and apart from the fact that water flows through them, they’re similar.
Even the waiting time is longer because there are a lot of people.
Anyway, after riding on three or four devices and coming down, opinions were divided.
The kids were starting to want to go into the pool.
the other side.
Manager Chae and Director Lee seemed to want to ride the rides a bit more.
“Go around a few more times. I can stay with the kids.”
“Are you okay, sir?”
“I can’t ride a body slide anyway.”
Slides that you go down with your body, not on a tube, are not allowed without a swimsuit.
Well. To be honest, it was just a vague excuse. Manager Chae and Director Lee knew that fact and felt sorry for me and couldn’t move.
“Go quickly and go around more. The time you spend waiting in line will take forever.”
“Okay. Then let’s switch shifts later.”
As I kept repeating the same thing, the two people reluctantly turned their backs.
Only after seeing them leave did the kids and I turn to head towards the pool.
I took the kids to the pool. There was no line, but here again, half people and half water. And there were definitely more kids.
“Wow wow wow!!”
You float on the water while fitting into the tube. As the artificial waves pass by, the cheers are carried along with the waves.
“Huh-huh.”
Every time a wave hits, the kids keep swallowing water.
The tube was too big for the kids. They couldn’t hold on with their arms and kept falling through the hole. Of course, they were wearing life jackets so they didn’t completely submerge, but they still took in water.
.
In particular, Da-eun, who has weak arms, was unable to hold on to the tube and climb up on her own once she fell in.
So I repeated the process of putting the kids back on the tube.
After a few waves passed by like that.
I’m starting to get tired too.
“Are you okay? Are you having a hard time?”
So I asked cautiously.
“No, it’s really fun.”
“Me too. Me too.”
The children smile brightly and nod their heads.
Yeah. If you guys are having fun, I’ll have fun too. After a few storms, my arms got so weak that I couldn’t even lift them anymore.
“Sir. Sir. This time, let’s go inside.”
Sohyun tapped my tube. I nodded at her words. No matter where I go, it’ll be better than here. I thought that as I came out of the water.
Sohyun took the lead and the others followed behind her.
As you enter the indoor pool, structures that look like a children’s playground come into view.
The water was shallow and the rides weren’t too steep, so it seemed safe.
After quickly and roughly measuring the size with your eyes.
Iron Flute
Only then was I able to sit down comfortably.
“I’m going to rest for a bit. I’ll go play.”
I let the kids out and watched them. I sat down on a chair and fixed my gaze on them.
‘Wow. They don’t even get tired.’
I catch my breath while watching the children play.
With a smile on your face.
Children floating on water.
It was fun just watching it.
No… to be exact.
In fact, it was much more fun to just watch the kids play than to play together.
**
After Manager Chae and Director Lee joined us, we all walked a few more laps together.
I returned to my accommodation in such a state of exhaustion.
“You did a good job grilling and packaging the meat.”
Everyone was so tired that they didn’t even have the energy to grill meat. Well, before that, no one knew how to cook properly, so they just packed the food and brought it.
Anyway, grilled meat, tteokbokki, and sundae. A few things were spread out on the table.
“thank you for this food!”
The food began to flow along with Sohyun’s loud voice.
As soon as I finished eating and drinking in such a short time, the kids started to wait around in a hurry.
He must have been very tired because he was nodding off.
“Okay. Okay. Let’s each go to our rooms.”
After I put the half-asleep kids up on the second floor.
“I’ll clean up a bit. Everyone, go in and rest.”
I was trying to get some rest after cleaning up.
“Would you like a drink?”
The manager took a bottle of wine out of the fridge. Then, as he opened the bottle with the opener, he blurted out a question.
“But was Youngjun’s personality like that originally?”
“yes?”
“You don’t care if you get hurt. Is that how it is?
I wondered what he meant, and took a moment to collect my thoughts.
The deputy next to him spoke first.
“Don’t be ridiculous. It was worse before you, sir. It’s much better now.”
“Was it worse?”
“It’s not that I didn’t care about losing money, I lived as if I had nothing to lose.”
“Hey. I wasn’t like that.”
“That’s right. So, rather than people around me using it, no one even touched it.”
I couldn’t take it lightly. He lived like there was no tomorrow. Then, Manager Chae received the wine and poured it into a glass of water.
Was that so? Well. Actually, I lived with the mindset that I had nothing to lose. I just thought it wouldn’t show on the outside.
I guess that wasn’t it.
“It’s strange. It’s strange. So does that mean you’re just born a good person?”
The director shakes his wine and utters words that are neither a monologue nor a question.
I feel awkward in this situation for no reason.
“What about the good guys? That’s okay. Let’s have a cheers.”
Instead of answering that ambiguous monologue, I just raised my glass.
braided.
As we toasted, purple waves rippled in the glass.
Everyone was misunderstanding.
I am not a good person.
He’s just a lazy person.
To be honest.
Whether I am at a loss or not.
Even thinking about it.
It was just too much of a hassle.
