#Epilogue Episode 9
“Mom, I’m hungry.”
Eun Hyeok appeared in the kitchen, rubbing his stomach.
The youngest, who was the apple of everyone’s eye, had come to the family home since dawn to wait, knowing his sister-in-law was coming today.
“Wait just a little. But Eun Hyeok.”
“Yeah?”
Eun Hyeok, who resembled her so much and was even prettier for it, looked up with an innocent, childlike expression.
Eun Hyeok, who was severely shy, had been constantly mentioning Da-som’s name ever since entering medical school.
She had even considered Da-som as a match for Eun Hyeok.
“Da-som is going to be your sister-in-law, but you’re really okay with that?”
So she asked.
“It’s a hundred, no, a thousand times better than having some strange woman acting up as my sister-in-law. And Da-som cares about me, you know? Honestly, she’s too good for my brother.”
“You like Da-som that much?”
“Mom, why are you talking so strangely? Have you ever seen me get close to someone I don’t like? You know how shy I am. I already thought of Da-som as family, so it’s great that she’s actually becoming family.”
A gentle smile spread across Goh Ah-reum’s lips.
“Does Da-som like galbi?”
“Yeah. She eats everything well without being picky.”
“Really?”
She had always worried about setting the table because of the picky eaters, but hearing that Da-som ate everything well made her even more pleased.
“Where’s Grandfather?”
“He went out to the garden to wait, saying it’s time for his granddaughter-in-law to arrive.”
“I see, I should hurry too.”
She had sent away the helper who usually did the kitchen work and prepared all this food with her own hands.
Without even feeling tired, she had prepared everything with the sole intention of welcoming her family member.
Goh Ah-reum hurried while checking the clock.
Her son was punctual to the minute, so he would appear at exactly 12 o’clock.
“I’ll help too.”
“Will you? Then please set the chopsticks and spoons on the dining table.”
“Okay.”
“Honey, is there anything I can do?”
Her husband Pil-yeong approached, rolling up his sleeves.
“Please take out some plates.”
“Okay.”
Her husband Pil-yeong also seemed excited about welcoming the new family member, as his voice was higher than usual.
“Mom! My brother has arrived!”
From far away in the living room direction, they heard the voice of the third son, who was a firefighter.
***
She had said they would just have a simple meal and leave, but when they actually arrived at the parking lot and got out of the car, her heart began pounding like crazy.
When Da-som looked up at Kang Hyeok with a pale face, Kang Hyeok gently cupped Da-som’s face and gave her a bird kiss on the forehead.
“Why are you trembling so much? Take a deep breath.”
Following Kang Hyeok’s instructions, she repeatedly took deep breaths in and out, and the trembling subsided.
“I’m okay now.”
When Da-som giggled and laughed, Kang Hyeok stroked her head and nodded.
“Shall we go then?”
“Yes.”
Kang Hyeok took out the traditional Korean sweets he had placed in the back seat of the car.
Since they couldn’t go empty-handed for their first greeting, he had prepared traditional sweets that elderly people would like.
“Hand.”
Due to his habit of holding hands wherever they went, Kang Hyeok took Da-som’s hand with his free hand.
Holding that hand, they left the parking lot and saw a garden with green grass spread out before them.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful.”
It was so similar to the house Da-som had dreamed of.
When she admired the well-maintained garden, Kang Hyeok’s lips curved up slightly.
“Do you want to live in a house like this?”
“Yes. But later.”
When Da-som whispered softly in reply, Kang Hyeok nodded and said.
“Tell me whenever you want. I’ll make sure you live in an even more wonderful house than this.”
The name of the area that Eun Hyeok had mentioned came to mind.
“Our Professor is quite capable, isn’t he?”
“Didn’t you know? I can do anything our Da-som wants.”
“Ah, I’m so happy.”
When Da-som smiled with her eyes curved in delight, Kang Hyeok pulled her close and tapped her forehead gently.
With that expression that said everything she did was adorable, Da-som felt like she was doing even more things she wouldn’t normally do.
“Do you like me that much?”
“Yeah. I like you to death.”
Hehe. Da-som laughed and shook the arm she was holding.
Before she knew it, all her nervousness had disappeared and her heart felt as comfortable as usual.
“Grandfather is out there.”
“Oh, where?”
They could see Grandfather standing with a cane in one corner of the vast garden.
Da-som let go of Kang Hyeok’s hand and ran toward Grandfather.
“Hello, Grandfather.”
When Da-som greeted him cheerfully, Grandfather’s face bloomed with a smile.
“Oh my, you’re just arriving now?”
“Yes. Did you wait long?”
“No, not really waiting. My heart was excited so I came out here.”
Da-som felt touched by the affectionate gaze that looked at her as if she were his real granddaughter.
“How are you feeling?”
“Hehe, as you can see, I’m perfectly fine.”
Seeing him laugh so loudly that it echoed throughout the garden, there seemed to be no problem with his energy.
“I’m here.”
Kang Hyeok slowly approached and greeted him.
“You’re here? You look even more handsome somehow.”
“Do I?”
Kang Hyeok replied nonchalantly and placed his hand on Da-som’s shoulder.
As if saying it was all because of her, Da-som’s face turned red.
Unable to lift her head and keeping it down, Grandfather led the way and said.
“Everyone’s waiting. Let’s go inside.”
“Yes.”
Passing through the wide entrance and entering the living room, all the family members came out to welcome Da-som.
“Hello.”
When Da-som greeted them politely, Goh Ah-reum stepped forward and took Da-som’s hand to lead her.
“Welcome. You must have had a hard time coming here.”
“Welcome.”
Chairman Tae Pil-yeong greeted her graciously. She realized anew how much he resembled Kang Hyeok.
“Sister-in-law seems to be getting prettier and prettier.”
The third son who was a firefighter.
“Welcome.”
And Bo-kyung greeted her along with a kind-looking man who appeared to be her husband.
“Nice to meet you.”
And finally, Eun Hyeok waved his hand as he approached.
“At this rate, we’ll be greeting the dawn right here at the entrance. Let’s go inside.”
Kang Hyeok decided he couldn’t let this continue and stepped forward to usher the family members inside.
“And this is something Da-som prepared.”
When Kang Hyeok held out traditional sweets wrapped in fine cloth, Bo-kyung eagerly took them.
“Oh my, why did you go to all this trouble buying such things.”
“They’re traditional sweets.”
“You bought them knowing I like them, didn’t you?”
When Eun Hyeok snatched what Bo-kyung was holding, Bo-kyung scolded him.
“She bought them for Grandfather to enjoy. How could they be for you to eat?”
“Da-som thinks about me so much.”
Da-som chuckled softly at their bickering.
Even Professor Tae Bo-kyung, who exuded charisma at the hospital with interns and residents trailing behind him, seemed no different from her sister So-yeon.
“They’re always like that, so don’t mind them.”
Da-som went to sit on the living room sofa with Kang Hyeok.
Grandfather took the seat of honor, and the chairman sat on the opposite sofa.
“Your name is Da-som, right?”
Grandfather asked.
“Yes. I’m Jeong Da-som.”
“What a beautifully chosen name.”
Grandfather tapped his hand resting on the sofa armrest and smiled with great satisfaction.
“Thank you.”
When Da-som thanked him, grateful that he found everything about her lovely, the chairman sitting across from them burst into laughter.
“Is there anything that wouldn’t look lovely in Father’s eyes?”
“So you’re saying she doesn’t look lovely to you?”
“Well, I think everything is good. Hahaha.”
“Stop laughing nonsensically and go bring that thing.”
When Grandfather snapped at him curtly, the chairman got up from his seat and headed somewhere.
And shortly after, he appeared carrying a document envelope.
“Da-som, open it. It’s yours.”
Grandfather called her name affectionately and handed her the document envelope.
“…G-Grandfather.”
Not knowing whether she should accept this, Da-som looked at Kang Hyeok in confusion.
“It’s fine. Just say thank you and accept it.”
Because of Kang Hyeok speaking so confidently, Da-som barely managed to thank him and accept the envelope.
“Thank you.”
“Hehe, I’m the one who’s grateful. You came here saying you’d marry our family’s eldest grandson, so how could I not be thankful? Go ahead and open it.”
Da-som hesitantly opened the envelope carefully.
As she quietly held the documents with property registration information, Kang Hyeok explained.
“It’s a much bigger building than what you gave me.”
Good heavens! Why would you give me such a thing…
Flustered, Da-som looked at Grandfather with shaking eyes.
“…May I really accept something like this?”
“Of course you can. It’s a small gift from me.”
Grandfather smiled kindly.
“It’s in Gangnam.”
“…G-Gangnam?”
Da-som’s eyes widened.
Even a single apartment would cost an astronomical amount, but a building? How could she accept something worth such a large sum? And it was in Gangnam, no less.
“Put it in your bag.”
Kang Hyeok calmly put the documents back in the envelope and placed it in Da-som’s hands again.
