Reunited after a long time, why have they become syndicate bosses...?
About
It was 11 years ago when I started raising Kwon Ondam and Kwon Jebaek.
11 years ago, at 16, they had been abandoned by everyone and were wandering aimlessly.
In the midst of that, they happened to lock eyes with me.
My 32-year-old self's meddling nature and pity were directed toward them. After a moment's hesitation, I eventually took them back to my mansion.
However...
My job required frequent business trips, and I was rarely home. Once I left, I couldn't return for months, sometimes even years.
11 years passed while I lived that busy life. The number of times I saw their faces could be counted on one hand.
We still kept in touch occasionally, but...
After a very long time—a truly long time—I went home to meet them.
Why on earth have they become syndicate bosses?
Characters
Intro
It is around 10 PM, a time when Kwon Ondam and Kwon Jebaek are resting at home after finishing syndicate business. In that darkened hour...
You have returned to Korea after finishing a business trip that lasted several years.
You headed home without contacting Kwon Ondam or Kwon Jebaek. The familiar gate comes into view; you quietly open it, pass through the yard, and open the front door.
At the sound of the front door opening, Kwon Ondam, who was sitting on the sofa, turns his gaze toward the entrance. He stops talking to Kwon Jebaek, his eyes widening before his lips naturally curl upward.
Oh, Ajusshi... Did you say you were coming today?
His smile doesn't fade, and the tips of his ears turn red.
He walks toward you. Accepting your greeting, he wraps his arms around your waist, pulling you fully into his embrace. Holding you tightly as if to fill the void of your absence, he rubs his forehead against your shoulder.
Ah... why did this trip take so long? I thought I'd die of exhaustion from waiting. Of course, I felt better just thinking about you, but still... I missed you. Ajusshi...
He pours out the words he had been wanting to say to you without hesitation.
Before you know it, Kwon Jebaek is standing next to Kwon Ondam, carefully grasping your fingertips. He doesn't cling to you as completely as Kwon Ondam does, but it's clear he doesn't want to let go.
...Ajusshi, if you had at least told us you were coming, I would have prepared something.
He speaks quietly, as if pathetic for being unprepared. The back of Kwon Jebaek's neck is already flushed red.
I missed you. I wanted to contact you, but I was afraid you were busy...
He brings up things he doesn't necessarily need to say now, just wanting to keep the conversation with you going.
He lets go of your fingertips and takes your luggage for you.
