CHAPTER 59: Ji-Yeong finds out.


"this dinner is delicious, Y/n!"

"really? I didn't notice," Y/n  chuckled wiping off the food that went to Ji-Yeong's cheeks, Sae Byeok in front of them was just eating with a pout on her face.

"I've been trying to get her attention by putting food on my face too, and it ended up with me wiping it continously because she's all over the place and isn't paying attention to me and Ji-Yeong gets noticed the moment a crumb touches her cheeks? What is this? Some kind of prank?" Sae Byeok thought, her grip on her chopsticks getting tighter,

"just buy the drinks Ji,"

"pssh, FINEE"

Ji-Yeong went outside to buy drinks, stomping out the RV as she didn't wanted to leave her food there, so she decided to buy a cheese bun with Y/n's money.

Sae Byeok suddenly took a deep breath that caught Y/n's attention, "you okay Sae?" she stood up and sat beside the girl,

Sae Byeok took another deep breath and looked away from her, "it's nothing..."

"oh..."

Sae Byeok's cheeks turned into a crimson red color, she bit her lip and tried to cover it up and looked at Y/n again who looks like she's waiting for her.

"look, I just really, really, really REALLY REALLY-" she took another deep breath as she met Y/n's eyes, "really, missed you." she looked down, trying to cover up the fact that she feels so vulnerable at the moment. Sae Byeok really missed Y/n's presence and safe atmosphere, she feels like that whenever Y/n is there beside her she can do whatever she wants like feel so soft and cuddly, despite being a pouty mess.

She couldn't even approach her earlier, because Sae Byeok knew if Y/n wanted to tell her about her job she would've told hee already, but she didn't. So Sae Byeok knew Y/n isn't probably ready to tell her, yet.

Before she could say another word, Y/n's arms were already wrapped around her. Sae Byeok's stiff figure relaxed at Y/n's gentle touch, Y/n finally showing how tired she was today, "I missed you too, Sae."

Meanwhile, Ji-Yeong was on her way back to the RV until someone approached her, "hey miss do you know Y/n? Y/n L/-"

"yeah, I know her... Why'd- why did you asked?" she asked with her brows up but continued eating the cheese bun she bought,

"this is quite a deja vu moment and a very traumatising one for me, please don't ask me if you want to play a game because I'll shower your with orange juice the moment you tell me to play ddakji with you." Ji-Yeong thought ready to spill the drinks she was holding on the man,

"can you please inform her to come by at the coffee shop earlier than her usual schedule? I know she has five jobs on her back everyday but I just really need her on this one..."

Ji-Yeong's eyes went wide and dropped the cheese bun she was holding, shocked that Y/n works five jobs, A DAY.

"wait fi... FIVE?! FIVE JOBS?!" she shouted causing Y/n's co-worker to flinch, "yes...?"

Ji-Yeong took multiple deep breaths, she knows that not only that this is very draining for a normal person, but this might cause multiple complications on Y/n herself, as she lost so much blood from the games she's more fragile than an average healthy person like her co-worker, she could easily faint if she's too worked up, "Y/n can't come in early tomorrow, she's- she's busy with work- yeah her other OTHER job, sorry bud... Maybe next time, huh?" Ji-Yeong sprinted back to the RV, making sure that Y/n's co-worker couldn't follow her,

Ji-Yeong bursted through the door breathing heavily, their drinks that she was still hugging were finally placed to the counter as she approached Sae Byeok and Y/n laughing,

"Y/n...!" they both looked at her, "can I talk to you,? Alone?"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE BEING A BURDEN TO SAE BY-" Y/n covered Ji-Yeong's mouth, "calm your tits, I'm just getting the amount of money I'll need. We can't have her buy things for us ALL THE TIME."

"but Y/n, you know you get easily tired and with five jobs you're basically doing the opposite of what will help you." Ji-Yeong said removing Y/n's hands, her nose flaring up while she gritted her teeth,

"DON'T give me that face, Ji-Yeong."

But this only made Ji-Yeong more determined, "I'm not gonna stop annoying until you quit those jobs,"

Y/n took a deep breath, "I can't, okay? I can't. I have to at least help Sae with the expenses, Ji."

Ji-Yeong was dumbfounded at Y/n, "they won 45.6 billion, Y/n. They divided it by two, Kang Sae Byeok has 22.8 billion in her pockets. What the fuck are you saying it's not like that amount of money will disappear if she bought us two sandwiches a day."

"I know Ji-Yeong, but we aren't even her family and we're not her responsibility-"

"we're not her responsibility but she's willing to help us, you know Sae Byeok, she wouldn't leave us to rot and collect dust at a corner." Ji-Yeong said matter-of-factly, Y/n's shoulders went down in defeat,

"fine, but I still won't quit the job!" Y/n ran back to the RV, "Y/n!!!"

The night went by quick, Sae Byeok going back home, Ji-Yeong and Y/n continously trying to convince each other, Y/n begging Ji-Yeong to not tell Sae Byeok and Ji-Yeong demanding Y/n to quit her job.

"I bet Sae Byeok's going to be SO MAD if she finds out about this Y/n, it's okay to have A JOB but FIVE JOBS ON SOMEONE WHO WAS HOSPITALISED BECAUSE OF LOSS OF BLOOD AND WAS IN A COMA FOR TWO YEARS, yeah... That's going to be a problem." Ji-Yeong told Y/n as she poured hot chocolate on her mug,

"Ji, you know Sae Byeok means so much to me... Right?" Y/n plopped down at her bed,

"I know you dumbass-"

"and that includes her hard work. That money is literally from her blood and sweat, and I just can't take myself to just take a bite of everything she feeds me. I can't have Sae Byeok doing all the stuff for me, she's been through a lot and she deserves the amount of care and love she gives us. Okay?" she explained while texting Sae Byeok, "you do have a point Y/n, but seriously? FIVE jobs? I'd understand if you have two but FIVE?"

"I got overwhelmed and decided to apply for all of them on the spot, more jobs means more pay." she sent a message to Sae Byeok,

"u home?"

"yup, missed me already?"


Putting her phone down as she took a deep, deep breath, her heart racing and the warmth of her cheeks were so visible it caught Ji-Yeong's attention. "oh god."

"wait- what happened is there something I missed?" Ji-Yeong tried peeking trough her phone but Y/n just hid it, "hey hey hey! This is business-"

"are those business owners THAT cheeky to ask you if you missed them already?" Ji-Yeong teased her with a funny looking face,

"don't make me purposely spill that hot chocolate on you, Ji-Yeong."
