Guide to Sunny Days - Chapter 66

52% Sunlight

“Yes. He suddenly came and got angry asking I was next to Esper-nim. He said that and left.”

When asked a little more, Kim San detailed his description and weirdness. The fact that the spy was already at the training site has already been revealed. In the first place, he contacted Kim San to get a clear look at those who infiltrated,

But why is he so annoyed?

“I’m sorry. I only heard the rumors and asked you this. . . ……As Esper-nim said, I don’t think the center is safe.”

Kim San was depressed and offered an apology. He just smiled and squeezed Kim San’s cheeks with his hands. The head that came into his grasp was so small and defenseless that he could easily kill it.

Kim San was becoming increasingly uncontrolled. He had always done things beyond expectations, but this was the first time he had such a strong impulse.

He was bait, so he should be exposed and shaken appropriately.

“This is the only safe place.”

Nevertheless, Gi Do-Hae nevertheless vented on a whim. He wanted to lock Kim San in the deepest part and tie him up so he could never see the sunlight again.

Kim San hesitated and nodded slightly, unable to guess such dark intentions, regardless of the hand holding his cheeks tightly.

“Are you mad?”

“No.”

Kim San finished apologizing with difficulty and carefully looked at Gi Do-Hae. His caring smile seemed a little awkward today. He seemed to feel this way even though he was sorry.

He hesitated and held his hand, which never left his cheek. To relieve the atmosphere on purpose, Kim San invited Gi Do-Hae to dinner. He had asked him to eat together several times since the day he came to this house, but it was a shame that the timing was not right. Kim San knew it would happen again this time, but he hadn’t had much experience giving up something in his life.

“Then let’s have dinner together.”

“……Okay.”

“Really? Wow, hurry up and go in.”

But when he got an unexpected positive answer, he felt like a flower was blooming from his heart. Maybe he’s being considerate and letting Kim San know he’s not angry.

Kim San, who believed in Mr. Kim downstairs, who said that they would get close only when they ate and slept together, quickly grabbed his hand and led him inward. Inside the second living room was a large kitchen.

Kim San, who first went to the kitchen to eat, was simply surprised. This is because there was only water in such a large and wonderful refrigerator.

It was probably because Esper didn’t have time to shop. For this reason, Kim San had already bought a lot of ingredients and filled the refrigerator before Park Joo-Hoon came. Gi Do-Hae must have been busy, so he had a great ambition to cook many delicious food instead. There was no place to spend the monthly guide activity fee anyway.

However, he often fainted while guiding for a few days, and after that, he was disappointed that he was rejected after asking him to eat together. As Kim San finally took the opportunity and entered the kitchen busily, he left Gi Do-Hae in front of the table.

“Wait a minute. I’ve got all the ingredients.”

“I know.”

Gi Do-Hae looked at Kim San’s back as he excitedly opened the refrigerator. His eyes naturally narrowed when he saw all the food inside.

Of course, he wasn’t interested in food. So far, he has rejected all the plausible and fierce proposals, but now Gi Do-Hae is in trouble. When Kim San’s doubts begin to sprout, he might have to muzzle some mouths.

With a small body, Kim San moved very diligently. He diligently took out the tableware as if he had adapted to the kitchen of this house. Gi Do-Hae didn’t even know he had that kind of thing in his house.

“…….”

He remained silent in such a brief moment while looking at the kimchi noodles before him.

“It’s been a while since I made it, so I don’t know what it’s like. It would be better if I had homemade kimchi.”

“……Kimchi, at home.”

“Yes. Hurry up and eat. You have to eat it in the summer.”

When on earth did such a law come into being?

Gi Do-Hae picked up his chopsticks with doubt. Even the thin ice floating in the red broth was a mystery; how it was made in this short time was a mystery.

In front of him, Kim San was watching him move without breathing. Eventually, Gi Do-Hae, who swallowed a sigh inside, lifted it.

Still, the food tasted like rotten rubber regardless of type.

“What do you think?”

“It’s delicious.”

To live, he had to eat the least amount of nutrients. Kim San began to eat his portion of noodles with relief as he silently answered the lie and chewed the food. Kim San had a habit of eating very slowly, even though it wouldn’t taste like garbage like how he tasted it.

Gi Do-Hae, who was quietly pretending to be absorbed in his meal, suddenly brought up business.

“The association’s president may soon tell you to quit as my dedicated guide.”

Kim San’s eyes widened in surprise as if he had heard something unexpected. Since he had just finished eating, his cheeks bulged and looked funny.

Gi Do-Hae had been looking at the white cheeks for a while and twisted the truth.

“I think they did this to keep me in check.”

“Keeping in check?”

“Yes. It would be better for them to use me that way.”

“…What did you say?”

Kim San was surprised and asked a question after chewing all the food. However, the more he answered, the more he couldn’t hide his glum expression. In particular, he was heartbroken by Gi Do-Hae’s calm attitude.

“That’s a bad thing.”

The flames rose from his heart. How hurt Gi Do-Hae must have been when he said something that seemed even to doubt him a little while ago.

The association’s president was said to be fair-minded, but Kim San didn’t know he would do this. As his feelings of injustice soared, Kim San reflexively picked up his cell phone.

“What should I do, even if it’s him, the police, the police…….”

Kim San was restless while holding his cell phone tightly, even though he knew it was stupid after speaking out. It was a pity that he didn’t know how to solve this complicated situation.

Gi Do-Hae gently held Kim San’s hand down. Aside from forgiving Kim San earlier, Gi Do-Hae was overly mature.

“There’s a way.”

“Really?”

Thinking there was a solution, he could relax even the hand holding his cell phone. So, without thinking he put down the cell phone he was holding.

Gi Do-Hae’s eyes, which were uttering words, naturally turned to the cell phone. He casually pushed it into the square behind the plate and said.

“I want San-Ah to reject it.”

Curiously looking at him, Kim San looked at him in surprise when he heard Gi Do-Hae’s words.

“Of course, if you want to quit, you can, but…….”

“What? No, it can’t be.”

The sight of Gi Do-Hae looking down and acting as if there was nothing he could do seemed so pitiful. Kim San reflexively grasped both hands, looked straight into his eyes, and made a promise.

“If that happens, I’ll say no.”

“Thank you.”

“Don’t worry too much, Esper-nim.”

Smiling brightly, Kim San continued to pat me on the back of Gi Do-Hae’s hands. It was really terrible to threaten a person with guiding, which was like a lifeline. Park Joo-Hoon said that the association’s president was reliable every time, but it was disappointing.

Perhaps because of his sadness, Gi Do-Hae couldn’t finish eating and looked down at Kim San’s hand. Kim San felt sorry for Gi Do-Hae so he comforted him for a long time.

***

That night, Kim San couldn’t sleep for long and tossed and turned.

“…….”

Many things piled up on his chest, creating a strange reverberation. When the wind blows between things that bother him, a rhythm like a mountain breeze always arises. He thought everything would be okay at some point, but when he passed through the dense trees, he would hit the ground fiercely.

Because of these, it felt like he was crossing a swing bridge connecting a distant gorge. Living in the city means learning to stand upright with your back straight, even on shaky ground.

The existence of a stimulant was horrifying. Kim San couldn’t believe someone could harm others simply because of benefits. He felt sorry for asking Gi Do-Hae. It would have been like asking him if he had done such a terrible thing.

Then he suddenly remembered what he said.

‘I saw it used, but it wasn’t a big deal.’

‘I do feel it when I close my eyes, but I don’t think it will help with the actual guiding.’

For a moment, the back of his neck felt cold.

Kim San curled up reflexively and hugged the blanket closer. The air in the house, which was always kept perfectly cool in autumn, felt strangely very cold. This unknown chill did not disappear even if he hugged the thick blanket to the fullest.

Earlier, Kim San focused on his statement that he solved it in the end, but is something wrong?
