LLU 9
I tossed the workbook I was looking at aside without a care and, as if it were my own house, familiarly retrieved the first-aid kit. This kind of thing repeated itself without fail just when I was about to forget, so the series of actions flowed as naturally as water. Gritting my teeth, I applied medicine to the buttocks and the back of the thighs of Junwoo, who was lying prone on the floor. With every touch of my fingers, his firm muscles twitched and spasmed. After putting a large hydrocolloid bandage…-

LLU 8
Life with my mother in a tiny one-room apartment narrowed my world like a well. Inside it, I had to simply accept whatever was given to me. Even when I couldn't understand my mother's choices, her intentions, and the environment that surrounded us. Why was I born into a single-parent family? Why, no matter how hard my mother worked herself to the bone, did our wretched poverty never improve? Why did my mother give away everything she had so easily to such pathetic men...? The answers to such questions…-

LLU 7
Since I couldn’t have my mother sit next to him, I sat in the back with him, and my mother ultimately had no choice but to sit awkwardly in the passenger seat. The atmosphere flowing through the car was uncomfortable. It was a pressure I had never felt when I was sitting across from my mother, having a meal just a moment ago. The man sitting next to me was someone who made even the air we breathed together heavy. To desperately ignore the sense of oppression that kept pressing down on my skin, I fixed…-

LLU 6
And she’s already four months pregnant. I added in an indifferent voice. To Junwoo, who looked like his eyes were about to pop out, I briefly explained the situation so far. Of course, I didn't bother to talk about Choi Junghan. “Hey, but you… don’t take this the wrong way.” Kim Junwoo, who had carefully started like that, showed a reaction that was within the range I had expected. That objectively speaking, it’s not like the man is having an affair, and it doesn't seem like she’s in…-

LLU 5
Of course, Chairman Choi actively expressed his intention to spare no support, telling me to think of it as him making things comfortable for me. I don’t know if it was because he’d come after getting the wedding rings sized, or if he’d become more unreserved after we had all revealed our intentions to unite. At the dinner of our second meeting, he was particularly vocal about it. However, it went without saying that I had not the slightest intention of receiving Chairman Choi’s support. One…-

LLU 4
For a moment, I couldn't say a word. It was the first time I had ever been hit like this by anyone. I had gotten into fistfights a few times with the guys at school, but it had only ever been at the level of grabbing collars and kicking each other in the stomach a few times. And above all, to me, violence was something that was exchanged reciprocally, not one-sidedly. Not once had I ever been suppressed so one-sidedly like this. Bewilderment, confusion, and pain were starkly mixed in my panting…-

LLU 3
It was a meeting that was, as expected, not very pleasant. And the one who made me feel unpleasant was not, surprisingly, the man who got my mother pregnant, but his son. After that meeting, my mother quit her job. "He told me not to work while carrying a child," my mother said, smiling like a young girl. It had been a year. That's how long her relationship with Chairman Choi had been progressing seriously. My mother looked so happy, it was hard to imagine how she had hidden it until now. After the…-

LLU 2
The meal proceeded in an amicable atmosphere. Chairman Choi told a few stories with a deliberate demeanor. They were stories that could have easily been uncomfortable, but he was unreserved. The content was mostly what I had heard from my mother, but to confirm for myself that Chairman Choi was, as my mother claimed, happy about the pregnancy, I couldn't help but be surprised. "It goes without saying, but Ms. Jeongin will become my wife, and in turn, Oon will become my person. This means we will be…-

LLU 1
"Oon-ah. The truth is, mom… is pregnant." On a weekend morning, a nuclear bomb was dropped on the dining table. Unluckily, it was right at the moment I had lifted a spoonful of freshly boiled, warm kimchi stew. It was the first meal I had received from my mother in months. Triangle kimbap, ramen, lunch boxes, then cup ramen again. It had been days spent engrossed in studying for my exams, repeating that kind of meal every day. My mother, who had never been very interested in housework to begin…-
