Chapter 20.2
Even If It's Not Love
âStop it! Please, stop! Thatâs enough!â
Yoo-hwa could not stand Yi-woon, who had appeared in her house, and yelled in anger. After yelling, her head hurt like it was going to burst. Yoo-hwa touched her head and glared at Yi-woon.
âStop what?â
Yi-woon tilted his head. As if he didnât know what he was doing wrong.
âWhy do you keep wandering around me? Why are you tormenting other people?â
âThen why are you meeting men?â
âThey were just colleagues.â
âThose colleagues were bastard men too.â
She lost all strength in her body.
â⦠Yi-woon. I donât have any interest in them, neither do they. So please, just stop.â
âThen why did you say that? You shouldnât have said to stop seeing each other. Youâre driving me crazy. What? Stop?â
âYou, what do you want from me?â
Yoo-hwa asked, staring straight into Yi-woonâs eyes.
âI want to live with you.â
The answer came without delay. She couldnât breathe.
âI want to marry you, have children, and live like that.â
ââ¦â
She got goosebumps.
It was frightening to think that Yi-woon had been imagining all that on his own.
There was a wish that had been dreamed about for a long time in Yi-woonâs voice, who said he wanted to get married regardless of Yoo-hwaâs feelings. Tears welled up in Yoo-hwaâs dry eyes. She shook her head powerlessly.
â⦠I donât want to.â
âWhy donât you want to? Because I have no money? Because Iâm that bastardâs son? Itâs not like I wanted to be born as his son! Iâll be good! Iâll do anything! Money? Iâll get that. So you just stay home. Iâll let you do everything you want to do except meeting with men, so just look at me!â
â⦠I donât want that, Yi-woon.â
ââ¦â

âI donât want to live while looking only at you. I want to live my life now. Thank you for saving my life. Iâll pay you back somehow. No, Iâll pay you back for everything youâve done for me. It might be insignificant, but I will pay you back every month⦠So, stop.â
ââ¦â
âItâs tormenting. You might deny it, but⦠I keep seeing him in you.â
ââ¦â
âI tried to overcome it, but I canât. So⦠Hmp!â
Yi-woon shut her mouth. It was a clumsy and rough kiss, as if he was trying to swallow the words that were about to come out. Yi-woonâs hand rushed through Yoo-hwaâs clothes. Yoo-hwa, who could barely detach her lips, gathered all her strength and screamed.
âIâm going to die! If you do this, Iâll die!â
She glared at Yi-woo with eyes full of tears. Surprisingly, Yi-woon, who was rushing like a bulldozer, stopped.
âWhat? Do you think I canât?â
Looking at Yoo-hwa, who was asking powerlessly, Yi-woon seemed to be greatly shocked. His lips trembled.
â⦠How can you die when I saved you?â
ââ¦â
âIf youâre going to push me aside like this, you shouldnât have been so nice from the beginning.â
ââ¦â
âNoona, you shouldnât have extended your hand, you shouldnât have given me food, you shouldnât have given me any supplies, and you shouldnât have covered me with a blanket! You shouldnât have made me believe that there was someone who liked me!â
Yi-woon, who shouted, grabbed his hair and shoved his head to the floor. When Yi-woon, who was groaning as if his insides were being ripped, raised his head again, tears were welling up in his eyes.
â⦠You said you would pay me back, right?â
Behind the tears, Yi-woonâs eyes shone oddly. Yoo-hwa hunched her shoulders unconsciously, like she did when she looked at Beom-sikâs eyes when first meeting him.
âAlright. Well, then pay me back. The price for saving you is money, and for the suffering I received is suffering.â

Tears fell from Yi-woonâs eyes. He turned around with a cold expression. After Yi-woon left, he came once a month and asked for as little as 100,000 won to as much as 1,000,000 won. As if telling her to put up with it if she could.
If Yoo-hwa said it was difficult, he would tease her, saying, âIsnât this too little for the price of saving your life? If you donât have money, pay me back with your body.â. Yoo-hwa somehow arranged the money and gave it to him.
âTake it. The price of my life. And you donât have to tell me. Iâll make sure I wonât be indebted to you ever again. Please⦠go away.â
He grabbed the money as if he were going to tear it up and went back.
And it was around that time. Wherever Yoo-hwa was, the same letter with those two sentences was delivered.
