Pick Up the Rejected Pure Love

Chapter 67: Dialogue

Chapter 67: Dialogue

After enjoying a variety of foods including sashimi, we turned on the gaming console.

Han-gyeol and I played a few rounds before passing the controller to Dad.

Ah, we should make this interesting with a bet. Hey, son-in-law, how about a little wager?

Sure. What kind of bet?

How about a simple favor?

Alright. I wont go easy on you.

Haha, my daughter, Han-gyeol is challenging me?

Han-gyeol, do well! Dad might lose, you know?

Dont underestimate experience.

Eventually, the match between Dad and Han-gyeol began.

Though I felt sorry for Dad, I eagerly cheered for Han-gyeol.

Han-gyeol, Dad doesnt know the combo moves well. Just corner him and keep hitting low.

Daughter? Even if its just a game, arent you too biased towards Han-gyeol? I feel left out.

Dad, I think youll ask Han-gyeol for a difficult favor.

You caught me. Ah! He really is just hitting low!

I watched Dad and Han-gyeol play intensely from behind.

Dad was gritting his teeth and fervently pressing the controller, and Han-gyeol was equally focused.

Ever since Han-gyeol started visiting our house, it seems to have become more lively and warm.

I dont dislike quiet, but I wish our home was always bustling.

A home where someone is always there to welcome you back and see you off.

Thinking of such a future with Han-gyeol made me incredibly happy.

I think it will be very blissful.

Youre better than I thought. I didnt think youd be good at games.

I practiced to play with Eun-ha. Youre good too, sir.

I cant keep hearing from my daughter that I dont know the combos.

Im extremely happy now, too.

As time passed, the bet ended with Han-gyeols victory.

He looked at me joyfully.

Eun-ha, I won.

Yeah, you did great! What will you ask for your favor?

What should I ask for? Will you really do anything?

Han-gyeol immediately looked at Dad as if he had something in mind.

A man should be decisive. I wont hesitate.

Wow, thats so cool. Then, Ill say it.

I was incredibly curious about what Han-gyeol was about to ask for.

I couldnt even guess what it might be.

So, what do you want?

Id like to go on a 1-night, 2-day trip with Eun-ha after the college entrance exams.

At Han-gyeols words, both Dad and I were stunned.

We never imagined Han-gyeol would ask for something like that.

A trip for 1 night and 2 days with Eun-ha?

Yes. Of course, it will be after the exams and once we both turn twenty.

So, you mean to say you want to go on a trip just the two of you?

Yes, thats right.

Dad was hesitant to respond to Han-gyeols proposal.

But just moments ago, he boasted about being decisive like a man.

Alright. Ill allow it.

Wow, really? Thank you so much.

But it has to be next year. There is no such thing as premature timing.

Understood. Thank you for permitting it.New novel chapters are published on

Han-gyeol smiled contentedly and then looked at me.

I never knew Han-gyeol could be so direct in asking for permission from Dad.

Eun-ha, you should thank your father too.

Oh- Uh, thanks, Dad, for allowing it.

Was there anything else he said?

Man-to-man loyalty, I guess. Cant quite spill everything~

It seemed like Han-gyeol was hiding something.

...

What? Thats intriguing! I know, But if youre curious, lets go in and ask. Your dad might feel left out if youre just with your boyfriend. Today, lets tell him how we met and what weve been up to. You know, since he hasnt been home much, he hasnt had many chances to talk.

Han-gyeol was right.

Definitely... Dads been busy and hasnt been home much, so we havent had many opportunities to talk.

I decided to have a bit of a conversation with Dad, now that I no longer just keep my feelings to myself.

Okay. Shall I head in now?

Yeah. Tell me later how it went.

If we talk all day, can I call you even at dawn?

Of course. Im going. Be careful going in, Eun-ha.

Take care. See you at school tomorrow. Sorry, I cant walk you further.

No worries. Just go in. Ill watch you enter.

Okay. Going now~ Bye~

After receiving a handshake from Han-gyeol, I entered the house.

Did Han-gyeol leave okay?

Yes. He left fine.

Dad was lying on the sofa, just watching television.

What are you watching, Dad?

Billiards. Amazing how they make those shots.

Dad, do you like billiards?

Huh? Just watching it out of curiosity.

Oh, I see.

I leaned back against the sofa.

Talking to Dad about Han-gyeol and me was a bit embarrassing.

But since Dad seemed curious, I mustered up some courage.

Han-gyeol has been my classmate since senior year.

Huh? Why bring that up suddenly?

Talking about this while facing Dad was still a bit difficult.

At first, I just thought he was a nice guy. Hed help carry heavy things and explain things I didnt understand. He even came over to help my brother build his computer and was nice to Mom and my brother. For White Day, he made chocolates for me and comforted me when I did poorly on the March mock exam. I was really grateful for that.

Since Dad didnt respond, I continued.

Hes mature, kind, and caring. We study hard together, go to karaoke, and eat a lot of tasty food. We even went to an amusement park during the last midterm.

Really? Did you enjoy it?

Yes. It reminded me of when we all went to the amusement park together.

Dad looked intently at my face.

We didnt have that much fun that day, did we?

Really? I only remember it being super fun.

Ah really?

Yes. Why?

Nothing. Its nice to see you dating so sweetly.

Right? I think so too.

I smiled, and Dad responded with a smile that looked just like mine.

Ah, right. Han-gyeol thinks a ski resort would be nice.

Sweetie, you dont ski or snowboard, do you?

Thats true. Dad, do you have any ideas? Somewhere with beautiful snow?

Daegwallyeong Snow Festival is nice, but its definitely cold.

Then lets skip it. Cant have Han-gyeol catching a cold.

After that, I forgot to reply to Han-gyeols messages and talked more with Dad.

But why are you telling me all this suddenly, sweetheart? Need some allowance?

No, just Han-gyeol said you were really curious about us.

Oh, is that so? Then you dont need money?

Well, if youre offering, I wont say no

Hahaha! Alright! Ill transfer it to your account. Buy something tasty with Han-gyeol.

Okay! Thanks, Dad.
