Love In A Small Town | Jeon Wonwoo

Chapter 02

"Eunyoo! Eunyoo! The guests are all here!" Eunyoo heard her father announced just right outside of her room, waking the grumpy Eunyoo up.

"Ugh.. I was just trying to take a nap. Three hours of sitting on the train was so tiring." She muttered all to herself while sitting down, fixing her now messy hair.

Going out of her room looking like a lion that has just woken up, Eunyoo yawned as she stretched her arms but stopped when she noticed that there are quite a lot of people and that all of them are staring at her.

"That's his daughter?"

Meanwhile on the other side we got the young man with his father walking together, currently on their way to Mr. Baek's house while holding plastics of eggs and cabbages.

"Why are we giving Mr. Baek a lot, dad?" Asked the young man.

"His daughter is here and it would be nice if we as their neighbor give some welcome gifts." Answered his dad.

"And oh, Wonwoo, I'm sure the age between you and Mr. Baek's daughter aren't that far. Probably around 2 or 3 years apart? That wouldn't be a problem if you befriend her. She'll feel lonely living her, I'm sure she'll need a friend." Mr. Jeon patted the shoulder of his one and only son.

"Friend." Whispered the young man, unimpressed.

"Oh, welcome, Mr. Jeon!" It was Mr. Baek who gave Mr. Jeon a very warm welcome.

"Here, we have some eggs and cabbages for you though it isn't much. I hope it's enough for you and your daughter." The moment Mr. Jeon glanced at Eunyoo, his smile faded away seeing the young lady dressed like that, revealing her stomach and wearing such short jeans.

"Aigoo~ You gave us more than enough!"

"Wonwoo ah, you can put it on the table." Mr. Baek patted Wonwoo's shoulder.

Eunyoo stood there, leaning the side of her body against the wall, crossing both her arms together as she watched her father with what she called 'town folks' having some conversations.

"My son is 21 years old, wouldn't your daughter want to meet him?" Eunyoo scoffed when she heard that.

"Ahh.. The thing is.. I don't think my daughter is interested with younger boys.. She's already 24 by now. She just graduated from university afterall." Mr. Baek smiled sheepishly, politely refusing the middle aged woman's offer.

"Why isn't your daughter looking for a job?"

'Hahaha jokes on you. Looking for a job, in such small town?' Thought Eunyoo.

"Your daughter is 24, my son is 26! They're just 2 years apart!" Exclaimed Mr. Jeon.

"Dad." Wonwoo shook his head as he let out a sigh.

Eunyoo raised an eyebrow as she averted her gaze to Mr. Jeon's son who happened to be staring at her too at the same time.

"Country boy." She whispered to herself.

When everyone are already home, Mr. Baek is now cleaning the house meanwhile Eunyoo sat there, watching her father sweeping the ground.

"They're so noisy." She complained.

"You need to get used to it. They did that to everyone in this town. I guess.. You need to be more friendly." Mr. Baek scratched the back of his head.

"Friendly?"

"Who's that young man, the one who's 26 years old." Eunyoo asked in a very awkward way, her father can tell that she looked really awkward right now.

"Ah! Right, I should've introduce him to you earlier but I was too busy talking with the others. He's Mr. Jeon's son, Mr. Jeon is my closest friend since childhood. His son is Jeon Wonwoo." Keeping her apathetic face, she crossed both her arms.
