The Marrying The Grim Reaper
Chapter 09: Working??
"Dad?" Yumi is shocked that her father has been waiting for her at home.
"You married?" Ask Yumi's father, it turns out that he heard Ju-Hwi's scream of congratulations.
"It's not dad's business." Yumi took out a wallet and handed some money to her father.
"Whatdidyou say? None of my business?? Yak! Lee Yumi I'm your father!!" Lee Baek-Hee yells, the smell of alcohol bubbling from his mouth.
"Yes biological father, just that. Because of the fact that you never did your job as a father." Yumi is angry, meeting her father will only cause trouble.
"Based on a brat!!"
Seeet..
Gyu-Sik brushes off Baek-Hee's hand, Yumi is spared from the father's blow.
"This is not the attitude of a father to his daughter." Gyu-sik.
"Hahh.so now you have a knight protecting you huh?" Sindir the father to Yumi.
"Receive the love of your daughter." Gyu-Sik gives Yumi money to Baek-Hee.
"Let's go in." Gyu-Sik pulls Yumi's hand into the house.
"Chh. beware that after this the man will change Yumi's mind, I will finish him off." Baek-Hee then leaves Yumi's house.
...----------------...
Yumi and Gyu-Sik enter the house, then sit on the sofa.
"I'm sorry for my father's behavior." Said Yumi.
"Why are you apologizing? You're not wrong." Bela Gyu-Sik's.
Yumi smiled, she felt glad that someone was defending her.
"Then I take a shower, after that I still have to write my novels." Yumi to the bathroom.
"Hmmm.." Gyu-Sik splits his body on the sofa.
...----------------...
The sun began to shine, warm air began to envelop the city of Seoul.
Yumi opened her blindfold, "Huh... it's already noon huh?"
He just woke up from his sleep.
Snif..
"Sonly smells aaaaa.." Yumi immediately went out of the room to the kitchen, there was Gyu-Sik there, struggling with the stove and others.
"Good morning." Sapa Yumi's.
"Eoh. Wake up at last, I thought you fainted." Gyu-sik Syndicate.
Plaque..
Yumi punches Gyu-Sik on the back because of her annoyance.
"Yeah! It hurts!" Gyu-sik.
"Waaaah..why are there so many kimbab?" Ask Yumi while vacuuming the kimbab. *Kimbab : a typical South Korean food made from rice that usually contains vegetables, omelet, meat wrapped in dried seaweed.
"I'll share it with the neighbors."
"APWAAAA??!"
"Yhaaaang is that you?! Buhuat what?!" Yumi's mouth was filled with kimbab.
"Eat first just talk, then choke." Gyu-Sik leads Yumi to sit on the dining chair.
"Yeah! Han Gyu-Sik.. are you planning to announce our wedding?!" Yumi's eyes glared in disapproval.
"Yes, it is."
"Make what??"
"So people know you're not alone anymore. So that no one messes with you." Gyu-Sik is rolling up the kimbab painstakingly.
Yumi is speechless at Gyu-Sik's words, she is moved that someone cares about her doesn't feel like she is crying.
"Yeah! Lee Yumi are you crying? Why??" Gyu-Sik stops rolling the kimbab, he sits in front of Yumi.
"Nobody noticed me for a long time, so I felt overwhelmed by your attention." Yumi wiped the tears on her cheek.
"There you took a shower." Gyu-Sik stroked Yumi's hair twice.
Yumi's cheeks blushed, her heart also suddenly beating faster than usual.
"Hmm. Yeah, I took a shower first." Yumi hurriedly entered the bathroom.
"Hahhh.. could go crazy me!! Lee Yumi is conscious!! He's a grim reaper." Yumi hit her head.
...----------------...
Gyu-Sik knocks on Ju-Hwi's shop door.
"Good morning bi." Sapa Gyu-Sik with a sweet smile.
Ju-Hwi who was separating anchovies from his head stopped and welcomed Gyu-Sik.
"Waaah.. What's the matter in the morning here? Can I help you?" Ask.
"No aunty, I just want to share my kimbab."
"Aigooo.how lucky Yumi is, handsome, kind and smart to cook." Ju-Hwi receives a kimbab made by Gyu-Sik.
"Emmm. Auntie is actually something I want to ask." Gyu-Sik seemed hesitant to say it.
"Ask, who knows I can answer."
"Actually I'm not having a job right now, can auntie give me workplace information?"
"Working place?? Emm... there is but.... I'm not sure you want, what was your previous job?"
Gyu-Sik gulped, he couldn't answer the question.
"Emm. Just tell me bi, I can work anything."
"Truly real men, come with me."
Ju-Hwi takes Gyu-Sik to the diner at the end of the alley. The store is famous in this area for its legendary jajangmyeon. *Jajangmyeon \= Noodles with black soybean paste sauce.
Gyu-Sik and Ju-Hwi enter a tavern called 'Jang-jang'.
"Jang sajangnim.I brought you a treasure." Shouted Ju-Hwi. *Sajangnim \= Call for a business owner.
The store owner, Jang Maru, the fifty-year-old man comes out of the kitchen to meet Ju-Hwi.
"Reprecreary?" Tanya Maru was astonished.
"He's looking for work, take it. Don't miss this handsome guy." Ju-Hwi pushes Gyu-Sik's body.
"Greetings to sajangnim, I am Han Gyu-Sik." Gyu-Sik saluted.
"Are you sure you want to work here??" Maru is surprised to see Gyu-Sik who is physically arguably grade A was willing to work in his tavern.
"Yes sajangnim, if allowed I will work well." Say Gyu-Sik steady.
"You got away let's get to work." Bring Maru.
"Thank you Jang sajangnim." Gyu-Sik saluted again.
"Gyu-Sik!!" Ju-Hwi encourages Gyu-Sik before finally returning home.
Gyu-Sik immediately practices working as a tavern waiter.
...----------------...
Afternoon.
"Aaaaaargh.a very tired." Yumi stretched her body, she had just finished a few chapters of her novels.
"Where did Gyu-Sik go? He was not seen this morning. Lest he be taken hostage by Ju-Hwi's aunt??" Yumi realizes that Gyu-Sik hasn't been home since this morning.
Yumi walks out of the house, she looks down, looks at the street around her house, but does not see Gyu-Sik.
"Where the hell is he?" Yumi finally comes down the stairs to look for Gyu-Sik on the street near her home.
"Yumi Lee….."
Yumi looked at Saar hearing a familiar voice calling her name.
"Yes aunt?"
"Are you looking for your husband?" Ask Ju-Hwi.
"His husband?" Yumi was not used to the term.
"He works at Jang-jang's shop." Ju-Hwi provides shocking information for Yumi.
"Work??" Yumi runs straight to Jang-jang's tavern.
From ignorance Yumi can already see Gyu-Sik wearing a dark brown apron, Jang-jang's tavern uniform.
"What's he doing?" Yumi doesn't want to get close, she only notices Gyu-Sik from afar. Gyu-Sik seems friendly to serve the customers.
Yumi chose to go home.
