Chapter 7 (1/2)

Suh Haran left work 30 minutes later than usual

She always took care of the things her colleagues forgot about after work But today, the workload was especially big

‘Theyfor me……’

A nervous feeling crept up in her mind as she walked in the dark street

Was she doing a good job as a parent?

Despite working 12 hours a day, she was unable to buy even her young siblings so

”Cough!”

A cough ca in the dusty factory all day

That combined with the fact that she worked in a dark place made her sick

‘Well, since tomorrow’s payday, let’s celebrate with some meat!’

She should be able to buy enough for her two younger siblings

When she thought about her siblings, she could feel herself cheer up

‘Huh? That’s……’

She could see a familiar shadow in the street

”Nn, is it you, Taehyuk?”

”Mm How’d you know?”

”Noona always knows”

Haran sreet her personally

Taehyuk spoke with a disappointed tone

”Why are you so late? I thought I was going to freeze Let’s go”

”Right, it’s cold, isn’t it?”

Haran ran to Taehyuk, and hugged him

[You used Robbery]

–You failed to steal the subject’s possession……

”Ah, what are you doing?”

‘Phew, it failed’

Taehyuk looked away, but it didn’t look like he hated what she did

He took off his outerwear, and gave it to Haran

Haran smiled

Her brother always had a sulky face, but she knew that he was the s

”Ah, wear this”

Taehyuk handed her a blindfold

Haran was slightly confused

”Is this the stuff you’re into nowadays?”

”…That’s not it It’s your birthday, right? We prepared a surprise party for you”

”Heh… A party?”

Haran’s eyes glinted with anticipation She was still a young girl inside, after all

She blindfolded her eyes, and followed her younger brother

It should’ve taken theet back home, but they arrived in just a few minutes

”We’re here”

Haran slowly put away her blindfold, and opened her eyes

”Wohat a nice house”

It seemed like a house that would appear in a TV show There was a large living rooly expensive sofa, along with a chandelier There was even a TV that was at least 50 inches wide

Haran spoke with a tinge of suspicion in her voice

”Did you borrow your friend’s house for the party?”

”No, this is our house”

”…What are you talking about?”

”They’re waiting, let’s go”

Taehyuk grabbed Haran’s hand, and moved

He walked to the door with the sign that said ”Suh Haran”

When he opened the door, they could hear a loud cheer

”Happy birthday, Noona!”

”Happy birthday!”

Pang! Pang!

Party poppers were set off

Haran covered her mouth

She was so surprised, she couldn’t even scream

She looked at the room

It was a dreamlike room

A beautiful, frilly bed

Just i herself sleep in the room made her feel like a princess

”Tae, Taemin! …and who are you?”

In the roo a conic hat

”Ah, that’s Kang Suk-hyung He helped s”

When Taehyuk introduced Kang Suk, Haran greeted him kindly

”Haha! Nice to meet you I heard a lot about you fro 2nd police division My na Suk”

”You’re an investigator?”

Taehyuk whispered to Haran

”He’s just an idiot brother”

”You…Really”

”You haven’t eaten, right? We didn’t prepare ets cold”

A beautiful cake, steak, along with a big bowl of fruit salad

They all looked quite delicious

Haran pinched her cheek, just to

”Ouch!”

Thankfully, it wasn’t a dream

”Taehyuk, what’s going on? What’s up with this house?”

”Ah, well…”

Taehyuk briefly explained the situation to Haran

He et ahold of where a criot money from it

He bought his sister a house with that money

Having heard this, Haran’s face became flushed

She pinched Taehyuk’s cheeks, and dragged him outside

”W, what is it? Are you happy?”

”That’s not it! A criotten hurt!”
