EP.3 Such an Unfair Death (2) 

While the madam was throwing a fit trying to force the closing duties onto other employees, Junho was running like mad toward Yuri’s house. 

Yuri’s house was in the opposite direction from his own, and because he got distracted and took the wrong bus by mistake, Junho couldn’t afford to wait for another bus for fear of being late. 

In the end, Junho wiped away sweat pouring down like rain and sprinted at full speed all the way to Yuri’s house. 

Since her house was in a somewhat secluded residential area, Junho got a bit lost in the alleys, but he still managed to arrive on time. 

“Huff, huff… I made it… What time is it…? Huff!! It’s already 6:56? At least I’m not late. And what I prepared… whew, it’s not ruined…” 

Ding dong~ 

After catching his breath for a moment, Junho pressed the doorbell to Yuri’s villa, his heart pounding. After a short wait, Yuri, wearing a home dress and apron, opened the door. 

“Welcome… Oh my!! Junho! Why are you sweating so much?!” 

“Haha, well…” 

As Junho entered Yuri’s home as she guided him inside, he explained his mistake, and Yuri said it was fine even if he was a little late. She wiped Junho’s forehead with a towel. 

“Oh, this won’t do… You should wash up. Use the living room bathroom to shower! I’ll wash your clothes right away! And while you’re showering, I’ll get you something to wear!!” 

As his sweat cooled, Junho himself began to notice the unpleasant smell, and not wanting the woman he loved to smell him like this, he carefully entered the bathroom. 

While he was showering, Yuri took his clothes to wash, and Junho, feeling guilty for making her wash his sweaty clothes, hit his own head as he showered. 

After finishing his shower, Junho looked for the clothes Yuri was supposed to prepare, but couldn’t find anything. He poked his head out and called for Yuri, and she responded with a flustered voice. 

“Oh my, I’m sorry Junho… I thought I still had some of my ex-husband’s clothes, but it seems my daughters threw them all out… They really hated their dad…” 

Yuri then handed Junho a large towel, telling him to wrap himself in it for now. Junho tied it around his waist, barely covering his lower half, and came out of the bathroom, his face bright red. 

“It’s… it’s fine! Junho, your body is so nice… I don’t mind you being like that at all…” 

“Haha, for today, I’m really glad I worked so hard on my body. Haha, and Yuri, I’m sorry to give this to you dressed like this…” 

Junho handed over the gift he had prepared for Yuri. 

“What’s this, Junho?” 

“Haha, open it. I thought it would suit you.” 

Yuri unwrapped the package and took out Junho’s gift. 

“Wow~ It’s a vase~ I’ll use it well… Thank you, Junho.” 

“I thought about bringing flowers… but you’re more beautiful than any flower, so I brought a vase instead.” 

“Oh my… Junho…” 

To others, it might have sounded nauseating, but to Yuri, who already had deep feelings for Junho, it was incredibly charming, and Junho entered her heart even deeper. 

“Oh my, look at me! The food’s going to get cold! Hurry and eat!” 

Yuri, who had been staring blankly at Junho, snapped out of it and urged him to eat. 

Junho sat at the table and looked at the meal Yuri had prepared. She had clearly gone all out for his visit, with a wide variety of side dishes on the table. Junho, tasting homemade food for the first time in ages, held back tears as he ate. 

“Oh my~ You’re eating so well. You always tell me to watch my diet, but isn’t this a bit much? Hehe.” 

“Ah!! I’m sorry!! Your food is just too delicious…” 

“Hehe, I’m just joking! Thank you for eating so well. I worked hard since you were coming.” 

“Oh, you scared me… But it’s true, your food is really delicious! I wish I could eat meals you make every day. Haha.” 

“Oh my~ Does that mean… with me…?” 

At Junho’s careless comment, Yuri blushed, and Junho, realizing what he’d said, also blushed and bowed his head. 

“Um… Yuri… if you don’t mind, would you…” 

Bang! 

“We’re home!!!” 

“Mom~ We’re back~!” 

Just as Junho was about to confess, Yuri’s daughters came home. Startled, Junho jumped up from the table to greet them, but because he moved so quickly, the towel around his waist slipped off. 

“Kyaaah!! Pervert!! Mom!! There’s a pervert in our house!!” 

“Heeeh, that’s a huge dick…? Sorry for interrupting your sex. Is this guy going to be our new dad? Judging by the size, mom’s in for a treat, huh? Hahaha.” 

The two daughters’ reactions were wildly different, but Junho didn’t have time to process them—he quickly turned around and wrapped the towel back on. Meanwhile, Yuri explained the situation to her daughters. 

“Anyway, you said he’s a year younger than me, right? But if he’s going to be our dad, should I use honorifics? Hahaha, anyway, good luck!! Mom really likes you!!” 

“Our mom only ever talks about Junho oppa when she comes home!! So you can probably sleep over tonight, hehe.” 

Yuri’s two daughters left Junho in shock and retreated to their rooms. 

“Um… Yuri…? What your daughters said…?” 

“J-just a moment!! Please don’t talk to me right now!! I might die of embarrassment!!” 

Forced to confess by her daughters, Yuri was so mortified she turned her back to Junho and cried. 

‘Ugh… If only they’d come a little later… Junho was going to confess first!! It’s ruined!!’ 

Just then, Yuri felt Junho embrace her from behind. 

“Yuri… I love you. I truly love you. You’re the first person who’s ever come to me like this despite my looks. If you feel the same… would you be my girlfriend?” 

Yuri was breathless against Junho’s chest and again tears welled up. But she held them back, turned around, and faced Junho. 

“Junho… I’m a divorced woman with two daughters… and I’m 18 years older than you… Are you really okay with someone like me?” 

Junho nodded, and seeing that, Yuri threw her arms around his neck and shouted her feelings. 

“I like you too, Junho!! No, I love you!! Please be my boyfriend, Junho!!! Sob sob sob” 

“I love you too, Yuri!!” 

Having confirmed each other’s feelings, the two closed their eyes and shared a deep kiss. Junho, his pent-up desire exploding from the kiss with the woman he loved, began to undress Yuri. 

Yuri responded, taking off her own clothes, and even removed the towel covering Junho’s lower half with her own hands. 

Under the bright lights, Yuri’s naked body was so beautiful that Junho couldn’t take his eyes off her, and he became fully erect. Yuri, too, gazed only at Junho’s large, erect member. 

After staring at each other for a while, Yuri, embarrassed, suggested they go to the bedroom, and they finally tore their eyes away and headed to the room. 

Junho lifted Yuri in a princess carry and laid her on the bed in the master bedroom. 

‘F-finally!! I’m finally losing my virginity!! And to the woman I love so much!! Ah, thank you God! If this is a dream, please never let me wake up!!’ 

Junho laid Yuri on the bed, but didn’t know what to do next. 

“Um… Yuri, I’m sorry, but I’m a virgin, so I don’t really know what to do…” 

Seeing this, Yuri smiled beautifully and gently pulled Junho to her, teaching him foreplay step by step. 

“Ahhh, Junho, if you lick there like that… Hngh, it’s too strong♥” 

“Huff, huff, Yuri, you’re so beautiful… If there’s a real goddess, it must be you!!” 

“Aaah, stop… Flattery won’t get you anywhere♥” 

After exchanging glances and caresses for a while, both instinctively felt the time had come. 

Junho carefully pressed his erect member against Yuri, and though embarrassed, Yuri spread herself with her hand to show virgin Junho where to enter. 

‘Ugh… Junho’s dick is so big… If that goes in…’ 

“Um… Junho, you can put it in here… I love you, Junho♥” 

“I love you too, Yuri!!” 

Junho tried to insert himself into Yuri, but as a virgin, he slipped at the entrance a few times. After several failed attempts, just as Junho’s tip was about to enter Yuri, the building suddenly began to shake. 

“W-what?! An earthquake? Yuri, get under the bed, quick!!” 

“Kyaaah!!” 

“Hye-mi!! Hye-yeon!!” 

“Mom!!” 

Hearing their voices outside the door, Junho jumped up in panic. Yuri was flustered that her daughters had been peeking in on their sex, but now wasn’t the time to scold them, so she quickly gathered her daughters and got them all under the bed. 

Junho, to protect them from falling debris, lifted the bed to shield them and tried to get them outside. Just then, Yuri shouted for him to wait and ran out from under the bed. She grabbed the vase Junho had given her and tried to return, but at that moment, the ceiling above Yuri collapsed. 

“No!!” 

Junho threw the bed aside, grabbed Yuri’s two daughters, and lunged toward Yuri. Fortunately, he managed to save Yuri, but his own legs were caught under the ceiling debris. 

“Sob sob sob, Junho, I’m sorry!! Because of me, your legs… sob sob sob” 

“N-no!! It’s just my legs…” 

“Junho… If we get out of here alive, I’ll devote the rest of my life to you… You two, get out first!! It’s dangerous!!” 

At Yuri’s command, Hye-mi and Hye-yeon left in tears. 

Yuri tried with all her might to lift the ceiling off Junho, but it wouldn’t budge, and then a second earthquake struck. As the house shook and Yuri fell into despair, her two daughters returned to help lift the debris, and finally Junho was freed. 

“Girls!! I told you to get out!!” 

“How could we leave mom behind…” 

“And he might be our new dad… Plus, he saved us earlier, so we have to save him too…” 

“Sob sob sob, thank you girls… Let’s get out quickly… Junho, I’ll help you.” 

But hope ended there. With a tremendous tremor, the ground beneath Yuri’s house caved in. Junho, Yuri, and the two daughters felt themselves lifted into the air, looked down into the abyss below, and embraced each other with their eyes closed. 

The next day, the newspaper headlines read: 

A magnitude 5.8 earthquake struck OO City. Massive property damage. A large sinkhole formed, swallowing a villa. 

Many casualties among citizens. 

6 dead, 457 injured. 

Among the dead were Mr. Shin and his apparent partner Ms. Lee, along with her two daughters—an entire family lost to the sinkhole. Mr. Shin was a poor but hardworking young man, and those around him mourned his passing. Also, Mr. Ko, Mr. Shin’s high school teacher and boss, died with his wife when the motel he rushed to in order to catch her affair collapsed in the quake. Meanwhile, the wife’s lover survived, drawing much criticism.
