A dining table in a cozy living room.
Sumire seemed happy to be sitting next to Shin Yusung.
‘Yu, Yoosung and sukiyaki… … .’
For Sumire, sukiyaki was not just food. It was a food eaten together by the family on special days.
“hey! Suguha! “I told you not to come into the room on your own!”
“however? “Why should I listen to you?”
Suito glares at Suguha.
Suguha is unusually relaxed for a 9-year-old.
“おいしい… … .(delicious…….)”
Five-year-old Sugoro dipped his palms in raw eggs instead of eating sukiyaki.
“hey! “Eat eggs with sukiyaki!”
Suguha was disgusted by that sight. Her mother, Suika, just laughed.
“Hehe, it looks like our Sugoro is very hungry? Still, wait a moment. “It’s sukiyaki after a long time.”
Bubble bubble.
Sukiyaki in a pot cooking loudly. Someone walked down the stairs on the second floor with calm steps.
“This is so… … . like this… … “I can’t believe I’m welcoming a precious guest.”
A middle-aged man with a laid-back look and wearing glasses.
“dad!”
Sumire waves happily.
Shintaro, her father, slowly walked over and patted Sumire’s head.
“Haha, yes. okay!”
Shintaro sat across from the guest, Shin Yu-seong. Shintaro fell into thought with a kind smile.
‘This student… … Sumire’s party hall.’
Shintaro also heard rumors about Shin Yu-seong. King Kwon’s disciple. Rebellion’s arrest. Won the national competition. Sumire’s father, Shintaro, could not have known about Shin Yu-seong’s activities.
‘I can’t believe he can be that strong with an F-class trait like Sumire… … .’
Shintaro was greatly troubled when Sumire’s characteristics were rated F. Sumire, the one she cherishes, has only F-level characteristics. Shintaro believed in F-class characteristics and did not want to send Sumire to a dangerous field where her life was at stake.
‘… … also.’
However, after seeing Shin Yu-seong’s performance, Shintaro felt much better. This was because he confirmed that he was capable of F-class characteristics, and because he believed that Shin Yu-seong would protect him even if something dangerous happened.
‘really… … ‘I feel reassured.’
Shintaro’s happy expression as he looks at Shin Yu-seong. Of course, that wasn’t the end of what I was thankful for. Sumire has become noticeably brighter after spending time with Shin Yu-seong.
Shin Yooseong was a benefactor to Shintaro, who was worried after the ‘incident’.
“Now then, shall we eat?”
Shintaro smiles and speaks. Suika covered her mouth and laughed.
“Now everyone, eat as much as you want.”
As soon as Suika, who was laughing, put down the ladle. Sumire, watching for her opportunity, quickly grabbed the ladle.
However, despite her confident grasp, Sumire was watching her family’s thoughts. Because she has never had enough meat in sukiyaki before.
In the end, Shintaro, the father, said haha with a smile.
“Because there is enough meat. “Treat your guests to your heart’s content.”
Only then did Sumire’s face brighten.
“Well, then! Mr. Yoosung… … Because you like meat the most. brimfully! Next are mushrooms… … .Ah, the tofu is delicious too!”
Shintaro smiled as he saw Sumire’s active appearance.
“ha ha ha! “It’s a good thing you prepared a lot of meat.”
“Oh my, he’s so… … .”
Suika is also pleased with Sumire’s actions. Shin Yu-seong looked seriously at the sukiyaki being placed on the plate in front of him.
‘… … It smells good.’
Shin Yu-seong’s sense of smell was more developed than anyone else’s due to his life on Mt. Musin.
‘Are the green onions and tofu roasted?’
As Shin Yu-seong lived with Sumire, his appetite became as picky as that of a gourmet.
well.
Shin Yu-seong picks up beef with chopsticks and puts it in his mouth.
‘… … This is really delicious.’
Sumire was right. The sukiyaki I ate in the club room on a rainy day was also delicious. The taste of sukiyaki eaten together was truly the best.
Sumire, who was looking at that figure anxiously, asked cautiously.
“Uh, how are you?”
“delicious.”
Sumire looks saved by Shin Yu-seong’s calm answer.
“really? Well, then this too!”
Sumire was delighted, picked up the beef with her chopsticks, dipped it in raw egg, and presented it to Shin Yusung.
well.
Shin Yu-seong readily accepts the meat Sumire hands him. Sumire looked at that and grinned with an idiotic face.
‘At my house… … Sukiyaki… … To Mr. Yoosung… … . ‘Me myself?’
Sumire looks happy no matter who sees her.
Shintaro and Suika’s hearts warmed as they saw Sumire happy.
“Hehe, you look stupid.”
“I know. “I feel like a complete idiot.”
However, Suguha and Suito make fun of Sumire. The youngest, Sugoro, also ate raw eggs with his palm.
“… … おいしい! (……delicious!)”
The couple, Shintaro and Suika, looked at each other and exchanged glances. When Suika gives the signal first, Shintaro quietly heads to the kitchen.

Suika spoke to Shintaro with a serious expression for the first time in a while.
“honey. As expected, Sumire… … .”
“You like Yoosung, right?”
“That’s right. If that passive child were to show off like that… … .”
Suika rested her chin and looked at Sumire from afar. Suika couldn’t help but smile at the sight of Sumire looking happy.
“I guess it can’t be helped. “I have no choice but to support you even when I’m here.”
Just like Suika, Shintaro was also rooting for Sumire’s unrequited love.
“is it so. … … “Let us support you even when you are in Japan.”
* * *
After the meal is over.
As promised, Shintaro Suika and his wife treated Shin Yooseong too kindly.
[Hoho, there’s nothing uncomfortable, right?]
Suika approaches at a moment’s notice.
[…] … Student Shin Yu-seong? If you need anything, please feel free to tell me.]
Shintaro smiles kindly.
[Oh, and I heated up the bath water. Tell me when you’re ready? Hehe~]
Hearing Suika’s kind words, Shin Yu-seong entered the bathhouse. Although Sumire’s house was old, it was well maintained. It was Shintaro’s influence that frugality was ingrained in him.
‘… … ‘It’s family.’
Shin Yu-seong smiled slightly.
The luxurious life of Seven Number was nice, but the time spent at Sumire’s house was just as good.
The time spent with Sumire’s family had a warm and pleasant feeling of fulfillment.
Sigh.
Shin Yu-seong finished his bath and walked out of the bathtub. And what I took out of my pocket was a white T-shirt. If I think about it, this was also the clothes Sumire gave me as a gift.
Shin Yu-seong, who was lost in thought, chuckled as he looked at the skull drawn on his T-shirt.
‘… … surely.’
Now Shin Yu-seong could not even imagine life without his colleagues.
Suddenly.
Shin Yu-seong opens the door. Sumire smiled awkwardly, wearing pajamas with her skull on them.
“Okay, are you finished?”
Sumire whispers in a low voice for fear of waking Sugoro, who is sleeping next to her.
“huh. Thanks to.”
Shin Yu-seong looked down at the thick cotton blanket spread on the floor. three. One was Shinyuseong’s, and the others appeared to be Sumire and Sugoro’s.
The cozy cotton of the blanket that you can feel as soon as you lie down. Sumire turned off the light. A dark room. Sumire managed to return to her seat even though she was out of sight.
Looking back, it was a day where many things happened. Sumire looked up at the dark ceiling and opened his mouth.
“today… … . “I was really grateful.”
Sumire said that and smiled despite not being able to see her expression.
“Abandon the party. I ran away to Korea… … . Although it was clearly my fault. Still, Yoosung was on my side. Really… … “I was happy.”
Shin Yusung calmly responded to Sumire’s story.
“Sumire, you are being insulted. “I couldn’t see it.”
Sumire lowered her head and her face turned red. Shin Yu-seong spoke in his usual tone.
“Because we’re in the same party.”
Sumire, who was happy, smiled bitterly for some reason at what Shin Yusung added.
“… … Isn’t that true too? … … “We are in the same party.”
Sumire smiled bitterly for some reason.
Actually, I knew it. Shin Yooseong’s actions are only because Sumire is a party member. It was clear that she would have acted the same whether the target was Kim Eun-ah or Amy. After all, Shin Yu-seong and Sumire are among the party members.
‘… … I feel strange.’
It’s a strange feeling that makes you feel happy, but also prickles your heart. A considerable amount of time passed, but Sumire could hardly fall asleep.
10 minutes. 30 minutes. I wonder how much time has passed by just looking at the ceiling.
Tuk.
“… … to?”
Suddenly, Shin Yusung’s hand covered Sumire’s hand. The tangible feel of the hand. Sumire was so embarrassed that his lips were quivering, but he tried to remain as calm as possible.
A new Yusung whose presence has not even been seen even as time passes. Sumire swallowed.
‘… … Oh, no way. Lord, are you sleeping?’
It looks like what he was doing just now was sleep-talking. Sumire rarely removed her joined hands.
‘Well, if I suddenly remove my hand, Yoosung might wake up… … .’
Although she said that, Sumire was wiggling her fingers without realizing it. Long fingers with pretty lines. But strong hands trained through training.
Sumire pursed her lips. It was painful for her to hold back the laughter that kept coming out.
‘This is Yoosung’s hand… … .’
The mind becomes peaceful just by holding hands.
‘I like you so much… … .’
As if by magic, Sumire fell asleep without realizing it.
* * *
“Chirp, chirp!”
The sound of birds chirping at the window.
Shin Yu-seong, who had fallen into a deep sleep for a long time, slowly opened his eyes. My physical and mental condition is at its best. But one arm of hers was especially heavy.
‘I feel like my blood isn’t flowing… … .’
Shin Yu-seong turned his head with a sense of strangeness.
Then, what we see is Sumire proudly crawling under her blanket.
Sumire was even holding onto Shin Yusung’s arm and clinging to her.
“S-Sumire?”
Shin Yooseong called, but Sumire didn’t even move. In the end, Shin Yu-seong gently pulls his arm. Then Sumire screamed in her sleep.
“no!”
Sumire’s stern voice.
Sigh!
Sumire put all of her body strength into hugging Shin Yusung’s arms even more, as if she didn’t want to let him go.
“Hehe, it’s so good… … .”
Then, Sumire opened her mouth and smiled with a satisfied expression. Shin Yu-seong eventually lay back down and closed her eyes.
‘… … I can’t help it. ‘I need to sleep for just one more hour.’
Today was Shin Yu-seong’s first record-breaking oversleep.
