The Marrying The Grim Reaper
Chapter 15: Yumi and her present life.

Dubrakk..

"Awwwww.got.." Yumi neighed in pain as her body fell off the sofa. He woke up from his sleep.

"You okay?" Gyu-Sik who was relaxing on the terrace immediately entered when he heard the sound of something falling from inside the house.

"Hmmm.." Yumi sat on the sofa leaning her head, her eyes closed, as if they were sticky as glue.

"You look so tired." Gyu-Sik takes mineral water for Yumi.

"Thank you." Yumi gulped down half the bottle and then placed the bottle of mineral water on her cheek. "Brr. cold." The cold effect helped his consciousness quickly.

"Did something happen? You don't look in good shape?" Gyu-Sik duduj next to Yumi.

Yumi looked at Gyu-Sik for three seconds.

"Waeil? wae nal geuleohge bwa?" Gyu-Sik is a little uncomfortable with Yumi's gaze, more precisely her heart is uncomfortable as Yumi looks at her intensely. *waeyo? wae nal geuleohge bwa: Why? Why look at me like that?

"Hmm.. I'm hungry, do we still have ramyeon?" Yumi walks towards the kitchen without deskwan Gyu-Sik questions.

"Still."

"God!! I forgot I haven't uploaded my novels today." Remembering her task, Yumi moved to the desk.

"Ckckck. Lee Yumi's. You've done your job first, I'll make ramyeon for you."

Yumi doesn't tease Gyu-Sik, she focuses on her laptop.

Ten minutes later.

"Salesaaaai, yuhuu….." Yumi raised both her hands into the air.

"Then here eat, cold hunt." Gyu-Sik sits on the dining chair waiting for Yumi.

"You're not eating?" Yumi asked as she positioned herself to eat in the dining chair.

"I made ramyeon, too."

"Waaah.then I slept very soundly, until I didn't hear you cook ramyeon." Yumi tied her hair.

"Indeed, very slumbering to snoring." Gyu-Sik teases Yumi.

"What the fuck?? I'm not snoring while I'm asleep, just as you're talking." Yumi's eyes were rounded because they did not accept Gyu-Sik's words.

"True, you were snoring loudly." Gyu-Sik slips Yumi's hair that doesn't fall out behind her ears.

Dugs..

Dugs..

Dugs..

Yumi's heart skipped a beat, the annoyance at Gyu-Sik just disappeared.

Yumi can't say anything, she pretends to be ordinary, she focuses on her ramyeon.

"What about your friend? Does he like my banana cake?" 

"She likes aaaaaaaa once, she says thanks to you. He ate until it was gone."

"really? Wow, glad to hear it. Is he a lover of sweet cakes? Shall I make it again? Or do I want to make another cake?"

"No need, tomorrow he asked to bring boba milktea."

"Hmm. baby tomorrow I have to work, next time I meet him. I'll make him another cake." Gyu-Sik looked excited.

"Other times?" Yumi repeated an unimportant word to repeat.

"Hmm. because tomorrow's Friday, the store will definitely be crowded, so I can't take a day off." It is clear that Gyu-Sik does not know the meaning behind the repetition of the word Yumi does.

Yumi smiled fakely.

"Oiya.. Jang sajangnim gave me a double salary earlier. Cool right?" Gyu-Sik flaunts the money 

"You should have asked for three times, this afternoon when passing by the store, the visitors were very crowded. Jang sajangnim must have made multiple profits, hahhh, you stingy boss." 

"It's okay, getting a salary like this makes me feel good." A sincere smile was plastered on Gyu-Sik's face.

"Emm. There's something I want to ask you." Yumi hesitates to ask Gyu-Sik this question but he is curious.

"What?" Answer Gyu-Sik casually.

"What if the soul ball inside my body can't get out?"

The atmosphere changed by one hundred and eighty degrees. Yumi and Gyu-Sik's facial expressions turned serious.

"For sure you will continue to see the rest of the human lifespan as you saw Grandpa Dong-Il."

"What about you? Is there a consequence or not?" Yumi stopped eating her ramyeon.

"Emm. no." Gyu-Sik doesn't want Yumi to know the consequences she'll receive if her soul orbs don't come out of Yumi's body.

"really? Then you become a human, don't go back to being an angel of death. Looks like you're used to being human, all right?How's it?" Yumi said with a joking name.

"That means I have to live as your husband dong?"

Uhuk..

Yumi chokes.

"Haishh. You are, slow to eat, you greedy woman." 

Some days they don't talk to each other.

"Emm.. no, why?"

"Thank God, it's okay, I just want to make sure you're okay."

"Hmm. I'm fine." Yumi answered with a lie.

"You didn't meet the red tattooed man on his forehead?" Ask Gyu-Sik to know.

"Hmm. no.

Hahh. full, I want to take a shower first, I have to work after this." Yumi hurriedly put the dirty bowl into the dishwasher and went into the bathroom.

"Hufhh.why did he suddenly ask like that anyway. Could he read my mind? Huhhhh.." Yumi recalls an incident in the hospital when an angel of death could tell what she was talking about in her heart.

Yumi out of the bathroom.

"Yeah! Han Gyu-Sik.. You can read minds huh? You must know if I'm talking in my heart?! Hayooo. confess!" Suddenly Yumi gets angry at Gyu-Sik.

"Before that soul ball came out of my body I could, but now that ability is gone. Why indeed? You often talk about me, right? Hayo.just confess." Gyu-Sik walks over to Yumi.

Yumi also does the same, she walks closer to Gyu-Sik.

"You lied to me? You can read people's minds, right??" Yumi glares at Gyu-Sik.

"Hahh, if you don't believe, it's up to you. Take a shower, I'll wash the dishes and go to bed." Gyu-Sik returns to the kitchen.

'Suspicious.' Inner Yumi.

"Bring there!" 

Yumi walked into the bathroom.

...----------------...

A new day begins.

Gyu-Sik has already left for work after making Yumi breakfast.

Yumi was still asleep in her room.

Biip. biip..

Alarm sound from Yumi's phone.

"Bahhh.. Why is it morning." Yumi disabled the alarm.

"Why are you still sleepy, hmm.." Yumi walked toward the bathroom, but stopped when she saw the dining table that had served breakfast menu.

Yumi saw a piece of paper tucked in her rice bowl.

'I go first, if you want to go carefully, do not forget to bring an umbrella.'

"It's so sweet." Yumi smiles after reading the letter Gyu-Sik wrote to Yumi.

...----------------...

After taking a shower and having breakfast, Yumi rushes to the nursing home to meet Jyeong's grandmother, and she also does not forget to bring her boba milktea.

Geck.. Geck..

Yumi knocked on Grandma Jyeong's room door, she then peeked inside, there was no one.

Yumi went to the nurse's desk.

"Sorry.. Where's Grandma Jyeong?" Yumi asked a nurse.

"Emmm.. Are you Lee Yumi chakanim?" The head nurse came over to Yumi. *Chekanim: Author/artist.

"Yes." Yeah." Answer Yumi.

"Jyeong's grandmother was hospitalized, her blood sugar was so high, she collapsed and is now in a coma." Obviously head nurse with a tinge.

Yumi was silent.

"From your expression don't seem surprised. Is it because you caused it so you're not surprised to hear about Grandma Jyeong?" The head nurse.

"Sorry.. Where is Grandma Jyeong being treated? I have to see him." Said Yumi.

"For what? To give milktea that?" The head nurse looked very angry.

Yumi was silent.

The head nurse left Yumi.

"Excuse me." A nurse poked Yumi's arm from behind.

Yumi.

"The other night Jyeong's grandmother gave me this letter, she asked me to give it to Lee Yumi chakanim."

Yumi receives an envelope from the nurse.

"You better get out of here, before the head nurse gets mad again. The name of the hospital, and the room where Jyeing's grandmother was treated, I wrote it on the back of the envelope, excuse me." Nurse goes.

"Letter from Jyeong's grandmother?" Yumi was still worried to find out what it contained.

"I have to find a place first." Yumi leaves the nursing home and heads to a cafe.
