The Returner

Sixteen dollars.

In conclusion, Seo Ah-young and Choi Jeong-hoon's wish were just a dream.

A competent person has the urge to use that ability. It's true.

However, the problem they did not consider is that Lee Hyuk is not a five-year-old newcomer who has gained new abilities. He is a madosopher at the top of the world and a magician who has reached the realm of truth. I couldn't wait to use magic like the newbie I just learned magic from.

Beraf's nightmare, the throne of destruction, is now losing his words, looking at the table.

Chi Yin.

The sound of grilled meat is always something you can enjoy.

However, if the meat is still baked on a mountain table in the morning, it will feel strange.

"Flower lamp since morning? ’

Lee Hyuk's mother, Park Sun-deok, couldn't sleep with joy that her son came back alive after five years. And the joy was fully transformed into mainstream power, which was now unfolding on the dining table.

Lee Hyuk swallowed his saliva as he watched the three basins emitting heat next to his bowl.

“Eat more slowly. ”

I can feel the warmth in my mother's eyes.

‘But this is too much. ’

When did God say that He would give up firewood and braised ribs? Isn't that Steamed Chicken over there a food that takes a lot of time?

Meat here, meat there, meat there.

A rice table made of only digestible meat.

“My son, he likes meat. ”

Lee Hyuk inhaled the meat without saying a word.

It's too much. It's too much... but good.

Meat. Meat!

“Oh, what is this? ”

After finishing preparing for work, my father's eyes curled up to the table.

“What are you having for breakfast? ”

“What's wrong with a kid coming back alive and not having a party? ”

“Haha, right. ”

My father sat down. Park Seon-deok put rice and soup in front of him.

My father carefully said that he saw moist rice and tasty seaweed soup.

“How about a triplet?”

“Seaweed soup is good for you. ”

“Samgyang is good for you too.... ”

She didn't answer any more.

My father didn't ask me any more. I'm a little sad, but I can't wish to be treated like my son who came back after five years.

My father's chopsticks were just baked on the fire and headed to a flower lamp with juicy meat.

“Oh, this is so delicious.... ”

At that moment, the forward-thinking tongs pushed off the chopsticks and grabbed the flower thorn.

The flower lightness that seduced my father went up on Lee Hyuk's rice, boasting a moist appearance.

“Eat a lot. ”

“Yes, Mom. ”

“Yes, it is.”

He gladly looked at the scene. My heart is warm but my hands are strangely awkward.

“Haha. Yes, eat a lot. ”

“Yes.”

My father's chopsticks turned to the ripe flower thorn again.

Tak!

However, the claws that came out naturally flew his father's chopsticks again, picked up the meat and put it on the rice bowl of Lee Hyuk.

Tak!

Tak!

The same thing happened a couple of times, and my father put down his chopsticks and shouted.

“What are you doing to me! ”

“You're welcome!”

“I am the head of this house! Be a little more considerate! ”

“Shut up! Chehala! ”

“Hnng.”

My father's shoulders sagged. Even if it's less important than coming home after five years, you still have to give me a meatloaf.

My father gave up the roasted meat and stretched his chopsticks with steamed ribs.

Tak!

Desperate eyes turned to Lady Park Seon-Duk, but the claws were resolute.

“Honey... ”

“Meat is bad for seafood, so have some soup, soup. ”

Where on earth did the word "bad seafood" come from?

My father, who was about to ask me something, looked at Mother's eyes and asked me to say a few more words, and quietly fed the seaweed soup.

‘I need a proper drink. ’

I didn't even recognize my son after five years, so I couldn't have been treated well.

“Yes, Ji-hyuk. ”

Lee Hyuk put the spoon down and looked at his father.

‘Umm, so... what should I say? ’

If I had met him mentally, I would have said a lot. Maybe he was crying and wailing. But after seeing that yesterday, I came back to my senses and I didn't have much to say.

It was awkward to be emotional and embarrassing to be rational.

“So... ”

Mother's eyes became sharp as my father hesitated.

“Speak, speak! What are you doing to keep her from eating? ”

“Ah, welcome back. ”

“Yes, Father. ”

“Let's eat. Yes. Eat.”

“Yes.”

Lee Hyuk started sucking food like a storm again.

The braised meat was dried up as a braised noodle, and the braised ribs became clean white bones and piled up. The handkerchief revealed the floor with just two chopsticks.

‘I'll leave you some. ’

My father sucked the spoon.

Then, Lee Ye-won came out in a uniform.

“Eat. ”

“That's it. I'm just gonna go. ”

“Eat what you've set up! You're late. You don't even eat! ”

“Oh, shit. ”

Lee Ye-won grumbled and sat at the table.

“What kind of meat party is this? There's only meat on the table. ”

“Your brother likes meat. ”

“I'll take it. ”

Lee Ye-won looked at Lee Hyeok-hyuk who was sucking on fire meat. Lee Yi Hyuk, who met his eyes, swiped the meat bowl to Lee Ye-won.

“Do you want some?”

“Huh?”

One syllable can give you that many negative feelings.

He is very expressive. I could be an actor.

Lee Hyuk pulled the fire again.

Why is she tickling me like that since yesterday?

Lee Ye-won, who had a spoon rolled up in a soup, got up.

“Mom.”

“Why?”

“Give me your allowance. ”

My mother's eyes became sharp.

“You've been taking allowance for a while now, ask for allowance! ”

“I used it all to buy a reference! ”

“References? References? You bought a reference? When a passing dog buys a reference, you don't buy a reference! ”

“Mom!"

“Go to school before I rip your hair off! And when I asked you to dye it, you still did! ”

“Why am I the only one with all these kids these days? ”

“Nowadays! Get out of the way. Is there a chick-headed kid like you? ”

“Aigoo! Really! ”

Lee Ye-won turned around and went to the porch, and his father woke up with a cough. Then, instead of noticing my mother, I handed her some 50,000 won shoes.

Lee Ye-won smiled and took the money and put it in his pocket. When she saw the scene, she started screaming.

“Why give me money, money! Are you going to take the blame for being a bad boy? ”

“Heh-heh-heh.”

He avoided Mother's gaze while clearing his throat.

“Just give me the money, are you a parent? He's got a kid like that walking around, and he can't even say a word, and he's more surprised and he pays? Are you a sane person or a non-sane person? ”

“Y-you don't have enough allowance. ”

“I'll be back.”

Lee Ye-won hurriedly opened the door to see if he could take the money. When I saw that crotch, my mother's eyes lit up.

“There's no need for money! I don't have enough to play with!”

“Hmmm. Oh, yeah. Jihyuk.”

My father rushed back.

“Yes.”

“Here, take this. ”

Several pieces of cash came out of my father's wallet.

“You don't need me. ”

“Do you have money? ”

“No.”

“Take it if you don't have it. A person needs to be confident in his pockets to be confident in his heart. ”

Lee Hyuk hesitated and his mother put the money in Lee Hyuk's pocket.

“If my father gives it to me, I'll be cold. Why are you hesitating? I'll make you a bank account, so use this until then. ”

“Uh-huh.”

Mom, don't you think you and your daughter treat each other differently?

My mom looked at Lee Hyuk quietly and said as if she was determined to come to work while avoiding the nagging.

“Let's go.”

“Huh? Where are you going? ”

“Mom's restaurant. ”

“Mom, are you still going to the restaurant? ”

Mother smiled lightly.

“I'm not in the kitchen, Mom. It's our restaurant.”

In five years, the house doubled and the store grew. After Lee Hyuk disappeared, the house seems to be going well.

Huh? That doesn't make me feel right.

“Why am I going to Mom's restaurant? ”

“I'm not afraid to leave you alone. I tried to take the day off, but I couldn't do it. Let's go!”

“Mom, calm down! I'll be fine. I'm just gonna stay home. ”

It wouldn't be so bad to go to the restaurant with my mother, but there couldn't be anything Lee Hyuk could do there. I'd clean dishes, at best.

“Where can I go? ”

“I'm not going out. There's nowhere to go. ”

“Hmm, I'm nervous.... Why don't you come with me? ”

“I'm not going! ”

After the compromise, Lee Hyuk could stay home as a condition of opening a mobile phone at the dealership in front of his house. An app on my phone was lined up, and I hung up like a dog because I lost my phone.

The mother who provided the safety devices in triplicate checked her cell phone several times with a ugly face and brought Lee Hyuk to her home.

“I've got the food, eat it! I'll be back early.... ”

“Mom, aren't you late? It's time to go to work!”

“Too late. Too late... Phew. ”

After some nagging, Mother opened the door and went out.

‘Ah, it's free time. I was scolded because it was awkward.... ’

That's so gross.

At that moment, you hear something heavy on the ground outside your porch.

What are you talking about?

Lee Hyuk tilted his head and opened the door.

“Uh, Mom? ”

She was blocking the front door with huge boxes that she didn't know where they came from.

The mother who met Lee Hyuk's eyes smiled awkwardly.

“No, I don't think I'll ever lose my way out there. ”

“ ……. ”

“Then I'll go see Mom! Close the door, please. ”

“Yes…. ”

As you close the door, you hear a murmur again, and the box and the door touch.

Yeah, this is parental love.

I shut the door in case my kid comes back after five years. I wish I was so worried... ….

Then why are my eyes so black?

Lee Hyuk's gaze was fixed in one place, left alone at home. A computer in the corner of the room that was designed to be used when my son came back.

“Huh-huh-huh.”

There are three things I missed the most in this world:

First of all, family.

The other is food.

And computers!

Lee Hyuk smiled subtly at the shooting of the modern civilization.

How much I missed this computer.

The power cord was plugged in and the boot started. When the OS boot was complete, the smile disappeared from Lee Hyuk's face.

“Stop, really? ”

A long time later...

Lee Hyuk, who was staring at the monitor with his hollow eyes, picked up his phone and called.

“Mom! Did you change my computer? ”

- I changed it to a new one when I moved in. You don't have to say thank you.

“Uh, Mom. Thank you... ”

I felt the love of Saab Mother.

He's been missing for five years and switching computers to a new one just in case he comes back. Even though everyone else said he was dead, his mother believed that he would come back.

It's touching enough to cry.

That's very touching.

This is touching...

Lee Hyuk hung up the phone and stared at the monitor for a long time.

Soon, he managed to control the mood swings, and closed his eyes.

‘Hello.'

Lee Hyuk said goodbye in his heart. Farewell to those who will never forget in all that time.

It was a sad day of separation.
