#74 Why?

"Alright, thanks Yeora." Sera.

"I looked at their faces but saw nothing more. Does seeing their memories only happen once for one person?" Ask Minna in my heart.

"Minna, why? Is anyone sick?" Ask Sera.

"Oh... No, eonni, I'm fine." Minna replied in shock.

"Say yes if someone is sick." Sera.

"Good eonni." Answer Minna.

"It's eonni's fruit I've washed it all." Yeora.

"Thank you Yeora. Minna, I'll cut the pear for a second." Sera.

"Yes eonni." Answer Minna.

Not long ago Sera returned to bring the pear that had been cut.

"It's Minna, eaten yes. Here I bribe." Sera.

"Thank you eonni." Minna.

Minna ate the fruit too.

"Are you so happy to be able to eat this?" Ask Sera.

"Hmmm... It feels so fresh." Minna nodded and replied.

"Eonni I also want~ aaa..." Yeora said spoiled then opened her mouth to be fed by Sera.

"Based on this kid, who's sick you're spoiled." Sera said as she fed Yeora.

"Hmmm... So yummy! Huhaha..." Yeora laughed happily.

Not long after Kai and Dohwan arrived in the room.

"Oh... Dohwan! Long time no see!" Donghwi said hello to Dohwan.

"Huh? Dohwan???!" Sera said half-cried in shock.

...#74...

...Whyyy?...

"Dohwan, Jeong Dohwan?" Sera asked whispering to Yeora.

Yeora ran peeking at the door of the ward.

"Yes eonni, it's oppa who works with Minna in minimarket as I recall her name is indeed Dohwan." Yeora replied after peeking.

"Work with me?" Ask Minna.

"Yes, you're working part-time at the minimarket with that oppa." Answer Yeora.

"Oh so yeah." Minna.

Kai suddenly entered Minna's room.

"Minna, what are you doing?" Kai asked as he approached Minna.

"I ate this." Minna replied while pointing to the pear plate.

"Eat a lot." Kai said kindly.

"Hey, why did you bring that guy here?" Ask Sera to Kai.

"Ah, Dohwan hyeong? I didn't bring him here he came here himself." Answer Kai.

"Well..." Sera just sighed.

"What the hell is it? Oppa is handsome, it doesn't hurt the eyes to see." Yeora said while eating a pear.

"It's not a matter of Yeora's face." Said Kai.

"Then what?" Ask Yeora.

"It's not to be discussed." Sera.

"Hmmm... Suspicious." Yeora said while eating the pear again.

"Minna what do you want to eat for lunch?" Ask Kai.

"I can eat anything, right?" Ask Minna again.

"Yes fine, but don't ask for sour and spicy." Answer Kai.

"I want to eat something warm and savory." Minna.

"Ah... I know, since Minna just recovered to eat samgyetang* only, how?" Yeora.

"Alright, I'll buy samgyetang and tangsuyuk**just yeah. Minna you want to eat samgyetang?" Said Kai.

[*Samgyetang ( ⁇ ): whole chicken soup with various spices such as gingseng etc.

**Tangsuyuk ( ⁇ ): korean food in the form of meat stir-fry with sweet sour sauce.]

"Byeah, it looks good." Minna.

"I also want spicy fried chicken. Is it okay Minna?" Sera.

"Ahh yes eonni is okay." Minna.

"We order something that's not spicy either." Said Kai.

"Yeah! We eat good!" Yeora.

"Well then, I go buy it first." Said Kai.

"Why not just order?" Ask Sera.

"I want to take the car home." Said Kai.

"Oh yeah, you're here on a bike." Sera.

"Yes nunna. Tomorrow Minno-hyeong is coming so I have to pick her up to the station." Said Kai.

"Oh so..." Sera.

"Minno, is Minno my oppa?" Ask Minna.

"Yes, you'll meet him later. You can talk to him, I'll bring him here." Said Kai.

"Yes fine." Minna replied smiling.

"Woehhh... Kai sounded really good when he spoke earlier." Yeora.

"Haha... Just let him be happy." Sera.

"A..what do you mean? Hahaha, you're all there." Sera answered wrongly.

"Eonni why is your face so red?" Ask Yeora.

"Not red, not like that! Ah... What the hell are you guys?" Sera said annoyed.

Minna, Yeora and Kai just laughed.

"It's up to you!" Sera said out of Minna's ward.

"Oh Sera, haven't seen each other in a long time." Said Dohwan immediately saw Sera coming out of Minna's nursery.

"Hi." Sera replied briefly then sat down on the sofa with an annoyed face.

"Why?" Dohwan asked whispering to Donghwi.

Donghwi just shook his head.

"Hmmm... Oppa you better go inside, you want to see Minna, right?" Jihyun.

"Oh well, I'll go inside for a minute." Dohwan.

"Hyeong hurry in." Donghwi.

*Tuk...tuk...* Dohwan is knocking on the door.

"Oh hyeong, let's go inside." Said Kai.

Dohwan enters Minna's ward.

"This Minna Jeong Dohwan, your coworker when you were working part-time at the minimarket." Kai said to Minna.

"Hello. Sorry oppa, I don't remember oppa." Minna said with a smile on Dohwan.

"Oh yeah, it's okay Minna. How are you doing now?" Ask Dohwan.

"I'm fine oppa." Answer Minna.

"Thank God then." Dohwan.

*ning...* Minna's ears are buzzing again.

"Yes some days there was a car that seemed to lurk in the minimarket and I also felt that someone was following me and Minna as we walked to dinner."

"Ah... I see, it looks like Hyeong can help us to explain to the police who are investigating this Minna case."

"I'm willing to come at any time so if you need help just call me."

"This is Dohwan oppa's memory, I'm having dinner with him? Then me and Kai? Is anyone following us? But why?" Minna said in her heart.

Suddenly Minna's head hurt a lot from trying to think things through. Minna held her head with both hands.

"Minna... Minna why?" Ask Kai in panic.

"Ah... My head..." Answer Minna in pain.

"Your head hurts again, huh? I'll call the doctor first." Kai said immediately rushed over but Minna held him back.

"Don't go." Minna said as she continued to hold onto Kai's wrist.

"Ba. lt's good I'm here." Kai said stammered.

"Ah, this is not good for my heart, how can I refuse if Minna asks like this while holding my hand." Kai said in his heart.

"It's drinking water first." Yeora said giving Minna a drink.

"Hmmm... Then let me call the doctor." Said Dohwan who was confused by the situation.

"It's okay oppa, the headache has subsided." Minna said to Dohwan.

"Oh, thank goodness then." Dohwan.

"It looks like it's almost lunch time, I'll buy some food first." Said Kai.

"Ah then let's go out together, I also have to go back to the minimarket." Dohwan.

"Oppa is coming home? No lunch with us?" Ask Yeora.

"Let's eat together next time." Answer Dohwan.

"Well... Then be careful oppa, Kai." Yeora.

"Minna I'm leaving first yeah, I'll be right back." Said Kai.

"Yes be careful, Dohwan oppa too." Minna.

"Thank you." Answer Dohwan.

"Call me if there's anything." Said Kai.

"All right." Yeora.

Kai and Dohwan are out.

"Hyeong is going home?" Ask Donghwi.

"Yes, I have to go back to the minimarket." Dohwan.

"Aah so yeah." Donghwi.

"Hyeong let me take you to the minimarket." Said Kai.

"No need for Kai, I brought the bike here." Answer Dohwan.

"Alright, I brought a bike here too." Said Kai.

"Aren't you usually riding a motorcycle?" Ask Dohwan.

"Yes hyeong, so I'm going to the house to exchange it for a car." Answer Kai.

"You want to buy lunch?" Ask Sera.

"Yes nunna." Answer Kai.

"I'm coming along." Sera.

"Alright, I happen to be carrying 2 helmets." Answer Kai.

"OKAY. Let's go." Sera.

"Be careful eonni, Kai, Dohwan oppa." Jihyun.

"Thank you." Answer Dohwan.

The three of them came out of the room.

"I should be glad Kai noticed Minna this way, Minna also looks comfortable near Kai but why? Why do I feel so claustrophobic?" Dohwan said inwardly as he walked down the hallway.
