Reasonable Loss - 57
Unlike the last time he visited, Eunsoo entered the house timidly.
He glanced at Dokwon while taking off his shoes, looked at him while taking off his coat, and looked at him while drinking water.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Dokwon asked as he opened the refrigerator door.
“I’m worried you might collapse.”
Eunsoo replied, dragging his toes along the floor as he sat in a chair at the table.
“I told you I won’t.”
“You never know.”
A hint of irritation glimmered in Eunsoo’s eyes.
It wasn’t something one could assert so confidently.
Do people who suddenly collapse think they will?
The body isn’t that kind.
If Dokwon collapsed in front of him, the shock would be tremendous.
Even now, the images of Dokwon glaring at him in pain, of Dokwon with a nosebleed, and of Dokwon crumbling while holding his head flashed before his eyes.
Dokwon casually closed the refrigerator door and approached Eunsoo, who had a sulky expression.
He gently cupped Eunsoo’s cheeks with his large hands and spoke clearly in a low voice.
“I don’t have a headache.
If I feel like I might, I’ll let you know in advance.”
“…….”
“And no matter how much it hurts, I won’t kick you out like last time, Yoonsoo.”
“……That’s not what I’m worried about.”
“Okay, okay.”
Dokwon chuckled softly and straightened up.
Then he picked up the cardigan he had draped over the chair.
“There’s nothing to eat at home.
Do you want anything?
I’ll go get it.”
“Well, I can’t think of anything.”
“Then I’ll buy whatever catches my eye.
You won’t be able to get up until you finish everything.”
That was a rather frightening threat.
Dokwon used to be like this.
He would give him disapproving looks while he snacked on cookies instead of having meals and then threaten him that he couldn’t go home until he finished everything at the restaurant.
“Um, then… I want tteokbokki.”
“Tteok… bokki?”
Dokwon’s eyebrows twisted in confusion.
He thought he could get anything, but this unexpected menu left him flustered.
“Yes.”
Eunsoo nodded.
Dokwon shook his head with a stern face.
“No way.
That’s junk food with terrible nutritional value.
