My girlfriend is so good to me - Episode 14
Ep. 14
monday.
Jeong Yun-seong told the teacher and the two of us left out the palm trees this week..
Although it was basically mandatory, it was a school that was flexible enough to remove it if there was a reason, even if it was not a very special case. Moreover, since Yunseong has been here quite often and I have been here as a helper a few times, the teacher sent me off smoothly without much confirmation..
At my house, there was no touching for the same reason. No, I tend to be a bit laissez-faire to begin with..
Anyway, the laughter remained until the two headed towards the snack bar. It was something I did anyway, and at most it was only for a short period of time, from 5 to 10 o'clock..
It wasn't even two hours later that the smile disappeared..
"Please clean up here.!!"
"yes!! I'm coming soon!"
"When will our tteokbokki come out??"
"sorry! It will be out soon!!"
"Do the math here.!"
"wait a minute!!"
"Hey, Hanyeon!!! Are you calculating?!!"
"Okay!!!"
It was definitely as busy as expected. Maybe it's because it's been two months, but I think my memories from before have become a bit glorified..
It was so fucking hard. more than I thought.
As soon as customers left, new customers kept coming in, and Jeong Yun-seong and I had no time to rest. Still, I was doing it with a friend, so even though we were busy, we made eye contact and said 'I'm busy!' and made each other laugh for a moment. I felt like I would be tempted to flirt with someone I didn't know well when I came to work alone and worked part-time..
What gives me strength is the memory of the cheek kiss Heena gave me yesterday..
[ Heena: Good luck helping your friend! But it’s surprising that the snack shop is so busy. What’s the name? Let me search! ]
[ Heena: It’s very famous.? ]
[ Heena: I miss you so, so much, but I’ll hold on ㅠㅠ I miss you again after this.? ]
[ Heena: Haha, I like it too! cheer up! ]
The only support from Heena was conveyed through KakaoTalk exchanged today..
"Huh, okay, let’s cheer up..."
I say to myself, fighting.
"Hanyeon!!!! bowl!!!"
"Let’s go ahhh!!!!"
Fuck, I should have gone to see Heenana..

tuesday.
Only day 2.
The steps I take to go there after school are so heavy. It felt like I was heading towards the battlefield. No, it's a battlefield.
Still, some of my memories of what I had done yesterday came back, and I felt like I could work a little better today than yesterday. Maybe because it's been a while since it's been a while, I sometimes had to do things like calculations and got help from Jeong Yunseong a few times. I heard today that when I settled the account yesterday, I was glad to hear that there was nothing wrong with the money..
I wanted to mentally win, thinking that if I were more tactful, it would definitely be a little easier today, but Yunseong, who was probably more familiar with the job than me, was walking limply..
"The store seems to be doing better than before.?"
"Uh... business is really going well. my mom is really amazing."
"Okay, congratulations.."
"Thank you..look forward to part-time job..."
Yes, I need at least that to give me strength..
I have to earn hard money and buy him something delicious..
[ Heena: Fighting today too ! ]
go for it..

Time passes quickly, beyond Wednesday, and before we know it, it’s Thursday..
I was cleaning up the dishes, shaking like a corpse..
".....Thank you, bye.."
Even my voice had no strength at all. I have no energy. My only hope was that it would be time to get off work soon..
"Hanyeon, I’m taking out the trash.."
"draw.."
Around 9 p.m. There were still a lot of customers sitting, but there were almost no new people coming in, just people sitting and talking or getting ready to leave..
While Yunseong Jeong was away for a moment, I was cleaning up the dishes and wiping the empty space..
Then, I help the customers leaving pay, clear dishes, and wipe down the seats..
I take the dishes that have been washed from the kitchen and fill them up..
Even after I picked up and cleaned up all the food and trash that fell on the floor, I felt like I was the only one in the hall..
Jeong Yun-seong, why isn’t Lee Ja-sik coming in? I'm sure it's not like I'm doing something unconscionable like hitting a hit while I'm at work.?
Just as those doubts were starting to creep in, the door opened and the guy came in. I looked at the guy if it was a bathroom, thinking he was going to kill me, but this guy also looked at me with a really pissed off expression..
"What is that guy who came late? That face. I'm sure you didn't rest alone.?"
"......Hey, you're the only one.."
"What's outside."
".....no.."
"What's wrong with that? No, you idiot. Did you come back from playing?."
There were guests, and if the noise was loud, it could be heard all the way to the kitchen, so I refrained from swearing as much as possible..
When I took a step closer as if to grab me by the collar, Yunseong Jeong instead grabbed me by the collar..
"Il Mamri Hazuu, you're a comedian....."
"What is it all of a sudden??"
The way he spoke with his teeth clenched was very threatening. If you say one more word, it conveys the will to strike you down..
Oh my goodness, I never thought there would come a day in my life when I would feel threatened by this horn-rimmed, half-shaved, bald head..
Without answering my question, he silently starts working..
What is this guy? I feel like he's acting angry on purpose because he got stabbed for taking a break, but damn it..
However, since there was only suspicion and no physical evidence, there was no point in further questioning. She's feeling a little real mad.
Okay, well, this guy must be tired too, I understood with a broad mind..
10Unlike me, who goes home right after the poem is over, this guy will have to help prepare the ingredients afterwards, so it will be even more difficult..
Anyway, how did you get through today? Tomorrow is the last day, so you just have to cheer up a little more..

the long awaited friday.
No matter how busy the snack shop is, the hourly wage is high and there is a university nearby, so once an announcement is made, applicants flock in quickly. Thanks to you, I had an interview over the weekend and was selected from among them, and I plan to use it from Monday, so today was really the last day..
Maybe that's why I felt more energetic than yesterday. And, in fact, Yunseong's comment that there are relatively fewer customers on Fridays compared to Mondays through Thursdays was helpful..
College students look for alcohol rather than snacks, and elementary, middle, and high school students go to game rooms or stay at home before the weekend and do not come to eat tteokbokki. For similar reasons, it is also free on weekends..
"Yeonhu~ Eat some of this and do it~"
"Ah, thank you!"
Thanks to that, there was some room in the hall, so the lady even brought us some fried food in between meals..
"Ugh, what would I have done if you hadn’t come??"
"That's right."
I know people need to be humble in life, but I didn't need that this time. You will know this hardship better than anyone else. She is now a master at interviewing for part-time jobs....
"It would be great if you would join our staff in the future... It's too much of a hassle to hire someone new every time.."
"I also really like this snack bar and the lady, but that’s a bit much...."
"Hey, if you want to get a part-time job after you graduate, feel free to contact me anytime.~"
"yes."
Every time I come to help, we have a similar conversation. But honestly, I only hold on because I don't do it for a few days. I wouldn't be confident if they asked me to do this every week..
"Hey, what are you eating??"
"fried squid."
"Delicious?"
"Nice taste."
Enough space to stand at the counter and have a conversation. Yes, this is my part-time job. What I did until yesterday was actually labor..
Perhaps because it was Friday and there were fewer customers today, the store was extremely empty. Normally, this would make the owner worried, but Yunseong, the lady, or the kitchen aunt smile and say that they are glad that they can get some rest..
I was also sneaking in while picking up and eating fried food..
As I was taking my time, time did not go by very well. Still, it's better than being busy..
It's been about 3 hours since I started working, and it's currently 8 o'clock..
After cleaning up the place after the previous customer left, Yunseong approached me while I was standing at the counter..
"Hey, you had a hard time."
"Yeah, it was a lot of trouble.."
"I don't think there will be any customers today, so just leave. I told my mom too."
"Oh, really? Can go?"
"The store is empty, so what are you doing here?."
There are still three more teams, but at this level there was no need for me to be there..
"You can send part-time expenses to your account.?"
"Thank you for doing so. Knowing the account number?"
"Oh, my mom probably has a record of it. You sent it to me like that last time too.."
"Okay, then I'll change.?"
"Hey, don't change your clothes and go out the front door. You know we have a back door, right? go out there."
"why?"
"Don't ask. Go out, turn left, and go through the alley next to the convenience store toward our store.."
"What is that?."
"Oh, just go now, Gagibalom.."
"No, what a curse.."
"Go before you get left behind."
He says that and pushes me off the counter..
Although I was confused by the unfamiliar sound, I quickly changed my clothes, feeling relieved that I was leaving work early..
I returned the apron and said hello to the lady. I didn't know why, but I did as Jeong Yun-seong told me and went out the back door..
"Go left, convenience store alley? Is that it?."
I slowly made my way down the alley with the thought that if there was nothing or the reason was useless, I should go back and face the truth..
As I walked a little further, I saw someone standing at the end of the winding road that took just one more turn to get back to the snack shop..
Because my vision is poor at seeing things that are far away, I slightly squint my eyes as I approach, and a familiar figure gradually comes into view..
Staring intently toward the snack shop.
As I got closer, step by step, I could see the back clearly, and I laughed..
Embarrassment and embarrassment, joy and loveliness at the same time. It all mixed together and became an indescribable feeling..
Eventually, I reached right behind ‘her’ and gently placed my hand on her shoulder..
"what are you doing here?"
"─Wow!!!!!"
Swish!
With a high-pitched scream that I've never heard since we met, I hurriedly dropped my body and looked back.,
"Uh, huh? W, is it Yeonhu? why here...?"
"That's what I'm saying.."
I saw Heena's very embarrassed face..
