Chapter 9 (2/2)

“I don’t knohy people like New York so s to see”

“It’s like you don’t know the value of so you usually have by your side”

It wasn’t so he said with only New York inunder Jo Minjoon’s words She spoke with a calmer voice

“I want you to know that it’s not that I’ dad”

“There’s no need to But can’t you try to understand? All the dreams he pursued for crumbled in an instant On that situation not every father can become a superman”

Jessie nodded at what Jo Minjoon said and shut herher mouth, she barely opened it and spoke

“Even so, every daughter wish their father to be a superht Jo Minjoon lifted the spoon he had by his side and covered her eyes And whileround motions he said

“Even super men have times they want to hide If you saw spiderhed and looked bitterly at the floor Jo Minjoon opened his h of this superman talk, noly stir the insides of the kettle The apple should be soft As for the pulps, squash it with the ladle”

“Okay”

Compared to the first ti off the lid of the kettle, started to stir with the ladle The bubbling sounds and the sweet aroma that could be felt, the unique fresh aroma was similar to paste

When the pulp was al, Jo Minjoon covered the boith the wet cotton cloth And said

“Pour the things inside the kettle on the bowl, slowly”

Jessie tilted the kettle From the kettle’s bird flowed the squashed pulps and the fruit juices Those things started to gather on top of the cotton cloth It was then Jessie grabbed the cotton cloth and tried to squeeze it Jo Minjoon hurriedly raised his voice

“No!”

“Ye, Yes? Why?”

“If you do that then the pulp gets through the cotton cloth and the en Just let the pulp to flow like this”

“…M to take a while”

“You need patience to cook jelly”

In the end Jessie let out a sigh and had to wait for the pulp to naturally flow out of the cotton cloth After that, everything ran sar on a 4-3 ratio and hly until the jelly slipped off the spoon

Then you had to cool it down after putting it in a vessel After finishi+ng all of those processes it was roughly past 1a sleepy eyes Jo Minjoon smiled and said

“How is it? To cook for someone else”

“I don’t know It feels as if i just achieved so And unexpectedly relieves the stress”

“Congratulations On giving your first step”

What kind of step was it? Understanding your father? Or starting to cook?

She was curious but she couldn’t ask If she asked so like that then she would be treated like a kid that didn’t even know about hidden s And somehow Jessie didn’t want to be treated like a kid

The h the iron fences melted the snow piled on it Lucas opened his eyes slowly The first thing he saas his wife’s nape He felt a warht However, at the saave him, the smile on Lucas’s face immediately disappeared

He couldn’t help but let out a sigh He didn’t kno to ease the anger of his daughter He couldn’t think of any answers Lucas left his bedrooth with drinking a glass of water, but he saw soe Next to the water bottle was a big paper bowl The thing that rapped rapping paper was definitely jelly And handmade jelly on top of that

“It’s apple jelly”

“Jessie…!”

Jessie looked at Lucas with her swollen eyes Could it be that her daughter reallyabout that, so Jessie said bluntly

“First eat it It was hard ht”

Lucas ate so his eyes a little It was a bit lacking, but for it to be hoood jelly And in the first place, quality wasn’t even that important He couldn’t even feel the flavor of the jelly properly

“Delicious It’s delicious”

“……Fine then”

It was that ed her Jessie didn’t push Lucas back Lucas was fighting back his tears and opened his mouth, but no sound could be heard fro Jessie too, rolled her teary eyes but she pretended to be calht, turned his back He wanted to keep that moment for the two of them However what he encountered was Jane’s teary eyes Jo Minjoon said with an aard face

“I’m sorry I used your kitchen without perthe most delicious dish in this kitchen”

Jo Minjoon turned his back with a smile on what Jane had just said In his eyes appeared the cooking score of the jelly However Jo Minjoon didn’t look at that score He had no need to

Because that jelly didn’t have the need to be judged with points Jo Minjoon replied back unperturbed

“It’s one of the greatest dishes I have seen in my life”
