"Are you two back together?"
"No, mom."
"Then what was that?"
"What was what?" So Ra kept her face straight. She truly didn't want to answer these questions. She just wanted to eat her tteokbokki and sleep.
"You two look close."
Sighing, So Ra still kept her face straight. "That's because we might as well be civil about this whole thing."
She watched as the older lady bit her lip in anxiousness.
"What is it, mom?"
"Well," her mother looked over at Mr. Kang and smiled awkwardly. "Did he say anything about adoption?"
There was nothing So Ra could do but to look at her parents in amazement, awed to the floor by their straightforwardness. "Wow. You really don't sugarcoat that at all do you?"
"We're just worried, honey."
"About me, the baby, or your reputation?"
"So Ra!"
She looked at her father who finally spoke her name after months. "What, dad? I'm doing everything you want right now. The marriage, the contract, whatever f-" sighing, she suddenly remembered she wasn't supposed curse so she banged her fist onto the side table instead. "Whatever you wanted me to do."
Her father looked down, more of being embarrassed by her, rather than being embarrassed himself.
"Yes, I got pregnant. I'm sorry that I could have ruined your social status. You could've just disowned me and let me be, instead of doing everything to this extent, which somehow made me feel even more worthless as a daughter."
"Honey, no—"
"—And now the baby isn't even out yet, and you're already asking if he'd want to adopt a child he has nothing to do with? In case you've forgotten, you paid people for their son to marry your pregnant daughter. You're indebted to them. Not the other way around. I wonder how much you paid them. Would like to know how much I'm worth—"
So Ra didn't get to finish her sentence.
Her parents left, leaving her with with red eyes and an even redder cheek.
