STOVE

May 5th, Children's Day.

This day is one that all children look forward to.

It's my little sister, Bosong's birthday.

If we were to express it in fluffy terms, we could say it's a fluffy day.

As is always the case with people born on anniversaries,

I didn't give separate gifts for Children's Day and birthdays.

Instead, I give them meat for all three meals. I also give them snacks.

I chose a fairly expensive gift and gave it to him.

This is the best I can do.

I do that because I find it admirable that he causes trouble but doesn't feel bad about it.

If only my mind was a little more sane, that would be nice.

anyhow.

Children's Day comes again this May without fail.

This May 5th is in the middle of a weekday, so it might be difficult to prepare in advance the day before.

Then, I have to go out and buy something in advance the weekend before.

Now, little by little, there are no more gifts to give.

Last year it was game consoles and game chips.

Last year too, it was a game console and game chips.

And the year before last, it was game consoles and game chips.

If I do the same thing this year, there's nothing more worth buying.

I haven't bought you the Happy Box or anything yet, because it's for assassination.

If you just let it slide, I'll get really angry.

I once gave a dress to someone I didn't have money for in the past, after writing it down in a cardboard box.

I got hit with a flying fluffy kick that was so strong that not a single dust particle came out.

My aunt also didn't stop me, saying that I was doing the right thing.

So the conclusion is.

“A gift that a girl would like?”

I asked people around me.

Of course, I don't mean going to each and every one of them and asking.

It's something I did on the side during my regular routine of visiting the sick.

My time is precious too.

The person I asked was Mina. She is my childhood friend whom I have known for over 10 years.

He has been unwell since birth and is currently hospitalized.

So, I may not know what my peers around me would like.

When I saw it, it seemed pretty believable.

Because Bosong and Mina have a lot in common.

For example.

“I give you money!”

There's something about that that makes me really curious about what's going on inside your head.

I definitely didn't ask what gift to give to Mina,

I asked what girls like.

By the way, I want to receive money this year.

Mina's birthday is also in summer, so let's remember it.

“I’m going to give it to my little sister.”

“But wouldn’t money be enough?”

Well, maybe it would be better to just tell them to buy what they want.

But I don't feel like just giving it away. Should I make a bouquet of flowers out of banknotes?

A bouquet of flowers for my little sister. Why me? I ask myself.

But the envelope isn't cool.

“Is that a little true? Well, even if you have money, you might not have anything to buy around you.”

"ah."

I didn't think of that.

Sure, it could be true since we live in a pretty remote place.

It's not like Bosong is the type of person who likes to go out.

“Clothes? Cosmetics? Oh, but since you’re an elementary school student, cosmetics might be a bit much.”

“Ugh.”

Mina was seriously thinking about what I was saying, even groaning.

And not long after that.

“Give up! I don’t know!! I thought about it a lot and now I’m hungry!!!”

“Do you understand, Unnie Chunja?”

“I don’t know the tastes of a child less than half my age.”

He declared his surrender proudly. Then there's nothing we can do.

I couldn't remember it either, so I don't plan on criticizing others for not being able to remember it.

"Sorry!"

“No, thanks for helping me.”

“But let me tell you one thing.”

“What is it?”

“I think any gift you give me would be good.”

As she said that, Mina had a big smile on her face.

And then.

“Then I would like to be compensated for the time I spent.”

“Okay. Do you need anything?”

“Haha. Of course.”

“My gift, please give me an MP3.”

Just now you said anything was fine, Mina.

“I want to listen to some music.”

“Should I give you the radio at home?”

It's a model that even lets you insert a CD.

“Oh, I had that, but it was stolen.”

"why?"

“Some strange person got angry...”

“Weird guy? Why on earth?”

For a child who is already feeling unwell, and for a child who finds hospital life very boring.

Why on earth did he get angry?

Even I, who listen to this, get angry.

“I was bored at 4 in the morning, so I just listened to some rock ballads.”

“What song?”

"thorn."

"oh."

“I think I sing well.”

With the right song selection, you even sang passionately. Oh my gosh.

Bosong also played the melodeon at 4 in the morning.

Because the door was locked, I couldn't stop it. I really couldn't hit it.

And that morning.

“Oppa! Thief! There must have been a thief!”

“Who is knocking on my door in the middle of the night..!!”

“Brother, why are you touching my face? I’m not hurt.”

“Why is the ball squealing!!!”

After that, I put the melody in a high place out of reach.

As expected, my eye for people is accurate. The two of you have similar points.

“Next time, try lowering your voice.”

“Oh, so you weren’t one to accept the female vocal version?”

Now that I think I've heard enough answers, it's time to play with Mina.

After having a small talk with Mina about what the problem might have been, I returned home.

And that night.

I realized that anything is the hardest order.

Mina's answer was ultimately of no help.

As the days passed and I arrived at school, I still had a hard time making a decision.

What should I do? If I just gloss over it, he'll be quite angry.

In a house where there are only two of us, I don't want things to become bleak.

As I was thinking about it, the bell signaling lunch time rang.

I got up from my seat as usual and headed to the library.

And the moment I was about to open the library door.

"ah."

"ah."

At the same time, I grabbed the handle with a girl. She was a girl I often saw in the library.

I don't know the name. I glanced at the name tag. Now I know. It's An So-mi.

I had a hard time seeing the name tag because I was wearing a cardigan over my uniform.

By the way, isn't that cardigan a little big?

It looks like it's about a size too big. Maybe it's an inherited piece of clothing.

The loose wrist part of the cardigan strangely catches the eye, covering half of the hand.

Cardigan, it's a better piece of clothing than I thought.

“Where did you buy those clothes?”
“... ...?”

In response to my question, Somi looked around.

And then he looks me in the eye again. No, he looks down.

“I, I, don’t know...”

He spoke in a very small voice, almost too small to be heard.

So I couldn't hear it well.

“What? Say it one more time.”

“Mom, mom, I don’t know, la...”

“Just one last time.”

“Mo, uh, ra, ah...”

“A little more force!”

“... ...”

Ah. It's broken. We just met.

Like a broken machine, Somi trembled and turned her back on me and tried to run away.

However, the hallway was more slippery than I thought, so I fell before I could get very far.

I feel sick.

“...Ah.”

"are you okay?"

I tried to approach Somi, who had fallen, and ask if she was okay.

But when something caught my eye, I couldn't help but reach out to Somi as if I was possessed.

“Uh, uh, ah?”

The hand extended towards Somi.

“Oh, you’re not hurt, are you?”

It passed right past Somi's face and reached her back.

And after grabbing something, he used force to snap it off.

It was a taxi.

“Because this is attached.”

"...uh?"

Oh, luckily I know this store.

The price isn't bad either.

“I took it off without permission...”

Before I could even say anything.

“Waaaaaaah!!”

This time, Somi didn't fall and ran away successfully.

It was so fast that it had already disappeared from sight.

Somi, Somi. Let's remember that. I'll have to bring you a drink later.

Of course, I couldn't meet Somi after that.

“Heeeeeeeeee!!”

Even if we meet, he's busy running away as soon as he sees me.

Until I graduated from middle school, this was the first and last time we had a conversation.

Still, thanks to you.

“Now, a present.”

“Thank you, brother! What is this?”

"cardigan."

“Cardigan? Was there such a game?”

"clothes."

“Aha. This time it’s not a game?”

“You don’t like it?”

“...No! My brother is the best!”

I was able to get through Children's Day safely.

“But this is a little big for me. It’s loose.”

“That’s good.”

“Oh. Definitely. I’m cute.”

“I’ll buy you something better next time.”

“Then buy me headphones!”

And I realized that there is a good way to do this: ask in advance.

“Auntie, she’ll be here soon too.”

“Wow! Aunt Angja too?”

“Oh. It’s been a while since the whole family got together to eat.”

Yes, I was able to spend this Children's Day safely.

PS

You worked hard today too.

See you tomorrow~

The second official trailer for GTA6 has been released

The trailer views are also huge, as it is expected to have about 59 million+@ views in just 18 hours since its posting.

Korean subtitles are also supported on the Rockstar Games channel, but Rockstar Korea adds subtitles to the video so you can watch it more naturally.

Even as I'm writing this, the number of views is increasing in real time by the tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands. When I refreshed, it was 60.3 million;

good luck

Make something like this
