"WHERE will you be living after our son gets discharged tomorrow?"
Garam walked Song Sihyuk out of the hospital not because he wanted to, but because he didn’t want to make Shin Geon and Shin Junho uncomfortable.
Thankfully, Hyung hasn’t asked yet why his former subordinates work for me now.
"We’re staying at Geon Hyung and Junho Hyung’s apartment right now," Garam said while putting on a face mask. There were a few hospital staff members who recognized him yesterday, so he was being extra careful now. "But I’m planning to find a new place for me and my baby now that we’re back here in Seoul."
"Just choose a penthouse in any of the apartment buildings that I own."
Haaah.
"Hyung, I can provide for our son."
"I know that," Song Sihyuk said bluntly. "But you’ve been doing that for the last four years. It’s my turn to do that now."
This is what I have to deal with from now on.
To be honest, the discussion would end if Garam just agreed to pick a penthouse.
But living in a place owned by Song Sihyuk already felt suffocating.
It will just be easier for Sihyuk Hyung to put us under surveillance if I let that happen.
"I want to raise Gunwoo at my parents’ house," Garam said. "I already hired a cleaning service company to clean the house in advance. We can move there soon."
He was talking about the house that his evil stepmother tried to sell before.
The house that Sihyuk Hyung bought back for me.
"Is that house in a safe neighborhood?"
"Yes, it is."
"Fine," Song Sihyuk said. "But I get to choose what kindergarten school my son will go to."
Aigooya.
I knew this would happen.
"Alright. You can choose what school our son goes to," Garam said carefully. "But I’ll still oversee his education. I won’t allow you to pressure him to be a top student or something, especially since Gunwoo is still too young to worry about grades."
"We’ll see about that."
"I’m serious, Hyung. I’ll get mad if you send tutors."
"Then make sure Gunwoo will study well."
"He’s just an incoming kindergarten student."
"And that’s the starting point, so he has to do well."
"It’s more important that our son grows happy and healthy."
"He can be happy and healthy and still have good grades."
Aigooya.
"Go home for now, Hyung."
"Are you upset?"
"No."
"Liar."
"Hyung, stop pissing me off," Garam said, sighing. He stopped walking when they reached the main entrance of the hospital. "Goodbye. See you tomorrow."
"Alright."
Garam bowed before leaving.
But as soon as he turned around and started walking back, Song Sihyuk suddenly appeared next to him.
Aigooya.
"Hyung, what are you doing?"
"You saw me off," Song Sihyuk said casually. "So, it’s my turn to walk you back to our son’s room."
Garam clicked his tongue loudly this time. "We look stupid, Hyung."
And Song Sihyuk just laughed.
This is getting dangerous...

"YOU HAVE a four-year-old son?"
Song Sihyuk couldn’t tell if Seong Kyungmin was shocked or not because his friend always had a poker-face.
It’s hard to read this person, even though we’ve been friends since forever.
"Should I congratulate you?" Seong Kyungmin asked bluntly. "Do you want the child?"
Ah, he thinks I’m talking about an illegitimate son.
My stoic friend finally showed emotions.
"You mean your ex-husband."
