The office beca the contents, I placed my phone back in ht as the as moist I filled a worn boith feed and opened the lock to the chicken coop The chicken coop it
As soon as I stepped in, the chickens caused a ruckus I re three or four chicks, but they reproduced so fast that there were around twenty large chickens I did hear that ht, to feed them
At this rate, it'll becoh, Gyeoul{1}, as refilling their water tank, said,
”Uncle, there's a girl naroup idol”
”Really?”
”She auditioned to become a W&U trainee this time, but she was contacted that she was rejected at the first stage She ca me to talk to you So, about that, can you call her once?”
Oh, my God I didn't think that I would receive audition requests from my own niece
I looked at her round, earnest eyes before saying,
”Gyeoul, life is…”
”Can't you tell her to stop dreao, she was bullying oing to beco Can't you tell her to stop drearu her short hair over her ear It seemed like it was only yesterday when she was childish and i others over with such finesse? This was a great stride
When I stared at her in a new light, she blinked
”Why are you looking at rown It seems you all can have 1 chicken each”
”Well, that's life You're thirty this year Dozen eggs!”
She said as she giggled, holding eggs hens had laid
Thirty Ah, that's right I'll be thirty this year
I felt a bit off earlier this year, but I had cootten about this with all the work I had to deal with It wasn't like there was a big difference between twenty-nine and thirty besides the first digit changing Looking back, I simply felt like I lived a busy life in s”
”E!”
Gyeoul quickly passed the eggs to ross! But they're huge! Oh, but so gross!”
The re up the worms in the weta bowl of worht they would only have two or three, but it riggling with them They deserved to be proud
”Where did you catch so rove over there! Grandpa told us where we could catch a lot of theross!”
”Why were you catching theive to the chicks! It's nutritious They are pitiful for only eating feed all the time!”
I don't know about that I didn't think they really need any more nutrition
The quadruplets entered the area specially fenced out for the chicks in the chicken coop before dropping the bowl of worrown chickens rushed out with their beaks pointed The quadruplets screamed as they rushed out
”Uncle! What the heck are they? Where are the chicks?”
”They are the chicks”
”They aren't chicks, they're chickens! They fit in the palm of my hand when I saw them last month?! Their feathers were soft and war after eating feed all day Pitifully”
”… Grandma said that they were still babies!”
”Of course, she was lying”
It was getting hard to fool them as they developed, but they were co their devastated faces, like they had seen their country fall, I laughed It felt like allwashed away
I took a few eggs and returned hoh at how the quadruplets were fooled
We had chicken noodle soup for lunch{2} We also had fried sos to make it a meal I bit into some ripe plums for dessert Their sour juice spread inat me while I ate plums, this was heaven
My mother poked a piece of plu has it been since we gathered like this besides holidays?”
”We came quite often It's just hard to see Sunwoo's face”
”Sunwoo, are you eating well? Don't skipYou need to take care of yourself at your age”
”Thirty is still considered young these days”
”Actual young folks don't say that The plums at the back are tasty, do you want to take a few boxes home? Your brother already ate two boxes”
”We cleared thes these days”
Everyone becalanced at her flat stomach, and they finally becahed After beconancies were a sensitive subject in our family
”Sunwoo”
My father avoided the piece of plu back?”
”I should be going soon”
My mother joined in,
”When will you co, right?”
”Yup, I'll try to take ashim and let him be His work is important, especially now that he's a team leader”
My mother sulked at my father's words
”And is family not important? I can't even see my son besides on holidays”
”Go to the chicken coop and see how big the chicks have gotten Just think of them as family”
My mother wielded her fork once more The piece of plu my father scrunch up from the sourness, I suddenly remembered what my brother toldhis health
It was also why he began growing chicks
”I'll visit often”
When I said this while looking at hed
”Then tell us before you corab a chicken and cook chicken soup{3}”
”You're going to cook theh you said to think of them as family? It looks like you still care about your son more”
My hed as well
I leisurely leaned against the sofa I looked atan entertain at the slow, tranquil countryside outside the
My break was over
