by Lilium — On nights when he had that same nightmare again, he didn’t even have the courage to walk outside in the dark, even with Gom-i. After agonizing for a while, he finally put off going home and spread out a spot to sleep in the convenience store’s storage room until morning. The next day, when he told the owner, the owner said lately he also found the night streets frightening, and if it was fine with him, he could sleep in the storage room anytime. He even brought over a folding bed from his own…

by Lilium — *** Compared to when he suffered a panic attack, Ahn Haeri woke up feeling very good. And as soon as he reached out and confirmed that the spot beside him was empty, he kicked both feet alternately into the air. “Ah, shit!” He rolled left and right, almost falling off the bed again. He crawled back to the center of the bed, buried his face in the pillow and pounded it with his fists. ‘Are you insane, Ahn Haeri! Are you insane! Of all the dreams, why that! You should’ve just been caught…

by Lilium — Was this a declaration telling Haeri to drop his pride from the start? But for an orphan with no home to go back to and who might not even have a college diploma on hand, isn’t the price of dignity at an annual 50 million won basically being paid extremely well? Besides, how many companies these days look out for their employees’ dignity when they hire them? If a stranger put 50,000 won on the line and told you to bark, could you honestly bark? Ahn Haeri would. He might even bark ten times and…

by Lilium — The direction the car turned into was far from the new city apartment complex. The whole neighborhood had low roofs, so the ridgeline of the distant mountains was clearly visible. However, it wasn’t a row of small, cramped single-story houses. On spacious lawns stood sleek two- and three-story luxury country homes, the kind you might see in an architecture documentary. Gardens were arranged like picture postcards, with exotic streetlamps, parasols, and wooden swings. Beyond beautiful wrought iron…

by Lilium — Ahn Haeri contacted the district office social welfare department and asked to be moved to a different facility. They said there were no vacancies. However, it seemed more like they were simply annoyed by the situation than a shortage of space. Haeri didn’t have a choice. He suppressed his shame and told them he was being sexually harassed. This time, the reaction was a bit different. A public official came by the next day. But they didn’t even speak to him. They talked only to Kim Jeongwook, and…

by Lilium — Jeong Mok ran the red lights as he hit the city limits. By the time he skidded to a stop in front of the shelter, even 119 hadn’t arrived yet. As soon as he got out of the car, he heard the sound of a man shouting in the building. “Hey, you piece of shit! I feed you, clothe you, give you a roof over your head, and this is how you repay me? You know what people like you are called? Parasite. Leech. Scum.” The voice was loud, and so were the crashing sounds. Something heavy and metal was being…

by Lilium — “Hey, Ahn Haeri-ssi?” Jeong Mok gently shook his forearm. “N, no… it’s not me… I don’t… I don’t know… I d-don’t knoohhh… ugh…” Instead of waking up, Ahn Haeri thrashed like someone being chased by a ghost and screamed. It wasn’t the time to worry about his back or leg injuries. Jeong Mok grabbed his shoulders and shook him. “Ahn Haeri-ssi!” “Ugh… hah!” Startled, Haeri’s flailing arm struck Jeong Mok’s jaw. “Ah.” A short sound of…

by Lilium — Whether he was asleep or awake, Haeri felt the same, tired and in pain. Did he really have to tease him like that on top of it? He was annoyed, but I wasn't in a position to talk about it. Ahn Haeri just pouted. “How’s the pain?” “My body’s exhausted, but the headache’s a little better now.” Though someone’s teasing had made his mood even worse. “How’s your back?” “I think it’ll hurt if I move, but right now I can’t feel anything. I still have a…

by Lilium — He fell asleep again. Ahn Haeri found himself in a different hospital room, once again, a deluxe room. A nurse he was more familiar with than Jeong Mok scolded him, asking how he managed to get hurt again so soon after being discharged. Haeri didn’t feel like explaining, so he just smiled. Since he couldn’t lie flat, he raised the bed table and lay on it face-down. Around lunchtime, Jeong Mok, who hadn’t been around for a while, appeared holding a bag of medicine and a phone. “They said…

by Lilium — “Huh?” It was hard even to lift his head, so he just opened his eyes wide. “It’s hard for you to move.” “……” He had snapped earlier, asking how someone could eat alone while leaving a sick patient behind. But now, how could he feel this embarrassed? “I’ll eat it.” “How, when you can’t even lift your arms?” It was because he had overexerted himself earlier. His arms really had no strength left. But eating while lying face down on a pillow was both…
