Chapter 136: Why do you wait for my wedding?
The next month pass in a flurry.
The CCTV caught Jae Kyung mixing drugs in Young Hwa's drinks. Yeon Seo and Young Hwa were called to the station. Young Hwa and Yeon Seo revealed everything that happened that night.
Kang Si An is called.
"She came to my house. We discussed Little Hae's custody and some personal matters," He tells them solemnly.
"Did she feed you anything or..." The prosecutor asks him.
"No." Kang Si An shakes his head. "We talked for a while. Then, she left."
"What did you do after she left?"
"I watched the news for a while. Then, I went to take a nap." Kang Si An stares back at the detective. "I was feeling unwell recently because of overworking. "
The prosecutor nods. Kang Si An's condition back then could be the result of overworking. The same could be said about Jae Kyung. Jae Kyung's recent schedule was busy.
Lawyer Yoon has not only freed Kyuri of any suspicion, but she also changes the reveals of Jae Kyung's past actions. The victims come forward. One thing leads to another and a big sex scandal is revealed, taking down powerful figures connected to the entertainment businesses. Kyuri is amazed by her work.
"Lawyer Yoon is scary," She mutters and munches down the chips in front of the TV. "She's quite thorough. I am glad that I am her friend."
"By the way, did you hurt Jae Kyung?" Her brother inquires. The family only found out about Jae Kyung when the summon letter to the prosecutor office came to their home.
"Do you want to hear the answer, elder brother?" She stuffs her mouth with chips.
"Even if I want to, you can't answer now." He takes the packet from her hand. "Is there something else that I should know?"
She swallows down and says, "Young Hwa and I got a divorce."
Ki Hoon freezes after shouting. So much have happened. "When?"
"Two weeks ago." She takes back the packet of chips. Things between Yeon Seo and Young Hwa are working well. Also, Yeon Seo is pregnant. He seemed quite happy. He even told Little Hae that she's going to have a younger sibling soon. They will quickly get married next month.
"Why?" Ki Hoon cannot understand his sister. Why does she never tell them anything?
"Because I wanted to play cupid." Kyuri licks salt from her fingers. The chips are finished. "Thanks to me, two people have a happy ending."
Ki Hoon holds his head in frustration. In the last three months, his sister came back with a child. She got married. She even got divorced. "Kyuri, why do you not think about me? I am old. My girlfriend will leave me if I don't marry her within this year. I was planning to propose to her after your wedding."
"Just propose to her." She glares at him. "Why do you wait for my wedding?"
It's not happening anyway.
"Because you are my younger sister. Your happiness is important to me." Ki Hoon sighs. "I don't understand you anymore. You should have held on to Young Hwa. He was so good for you."
"You should tie down your girlfriend before she meets her ex or a new guy." Kyuri chuckles. "Otherwise, you might end up alone for the rest of your life. At least, I have Little Hae."
"Kyuri, don't curse me. I also have Little Hae. She loves me a lot," Ki Hoon yells when she walks away from him.
***
At the entrance of the school, Little Hae nervously looks up at her parents. It's the first day of her school. Kyuri is almost in tears to see her in the cute school uniform. Her daughter was so small when she was born and now, she's starting school.
Kang Si An smiles at Little Hae. "Nervous?"
"Daddy, Little Hae doesn't want to go." Little Hae looks at him. "Little Hae wants to play with you."
"Your friend is also starting school today," Kyuri tells her daughter. "You don't want to see him?"
"Hyun?" Little Hae's ears perk up. Jae Hyun is Yoon Miran's youngest son. They met and became friends easily. Ha-Neul was mesmerized by Little Hae's cute face. She even asked her mother to exchange Jae Hyun with Little Hae. She would rather have a cute sister than an annoying younger brother.
"He should be here already." Kyuri looks down at her watch. Just then, a car stops in front of them. Kim Taeho comes out and opens the door for Jae Hyun and Ha-Neul.
Ha-Neul runs to Little Hae first and gives her a hug. "Little Sister, we are going to the same school."
The excitement is contagious. Little Hae's expression becomes better. Jae Hyun waddles behind his sister. He beams at Little Hae. "Hae, I brought candies...Here..."
He takes off the wrapper and gives one to Little Hae. She shoves it inside her mouth. Delighted, Little Hae forgets about Kang Si An and gives a kiss to Jae Hyun's cheek.
Kang Si An is jealous. He can accept Young Hwa, but who is this boy? Why does his daughter already have a boyfriend? He looks at Kyuri questionably.
Kyuri shrugs her shoulders. They are only kids.
Kim Taeho laughs and shakes his head when he notices Kang Si An's jealousy.
"You are a pretty uncle." Ha Neul suddenly walks to Kang Si An. "Come down. I want to give you a happy kiss."
She gives one kiss to her father's and brother's cheeks every morning. Since she likes Little Hae a lot, she also likes Little Hae's father who has the same green eyes.
Kim Taeho's expression turns sour when he hears her daughter say that. "Ha-Neul, you can't kiss a strange man. I told you that you must scream and run away when you see strange men."
"Strange man?" Kang Si An frowns at him. "What about my daughter kissing your son?"
"They are kids. Besides, your daughter kissed my son and not the other way." Kim Taeho scowls back. "You are an adult. Do you want me to sue you for pedophilia?"
"Are you insane?" Kang Si An can't believe what he is hearing. "I don't have such interests. I can also sue you for slander."
"Then, you should reject when little girls ask you for a kiss," Kim Taeho tells him sternly. "I don't trust the sanity of the man who jumps from the top of the building."
"You!" Kang Si An has the urge to beat him up.
Kyuri sighs. Why is Lawyer Yoon not here? How does she handle two crazy father? It would have been better if Young Hwa was here. He's more sensible than these two foolish men.
She walks to children. "Stand together and smile. I will take a picture."
While Kang Si An and Kim Taeho are arguing, Kyuri clicks some pictures of three friends.
"It's a big day." She kisses Little Hae's foreheads. "You will do well."
Seeing that, Ha-Neul copies and kisses Jae Hyun's forehead. "Little brother, don't worry. Our school is a fun place."
"I am not worried. You and Hae are there," He mumbles and gives another candy to Little Hae. Kyuri smiles softly.
Kang Si An scurries to his daughter when he notices walking away. He hugs her once and says, "Little Hae, don't grow up too fast."
It's only been some time since he met her. She's already going to school.
"Daddy, Little Hae won't grow up fast." Little Hae promises him, but Kang Si An knows that she will break the promises, just like her mother in the future. Little Hae sees Jae Hyun waiting for her near the classroom. Jae Hyun opens up third candy and shows it to Little Hae. Seeing that, she sprints in Jae Hyun's direction.
"That boy!" Kang Si An can only curse in his heart. What is this feeling? His daughter is easily lured away by candies.
Kim Taeho pats his back. "Want to grab drinks sometime?"
Kang Si An glances at the man who was calling him a pedophile a while ago. "Why not?"
Seeing this, Kyuri wonders whether she will ever understand men.
