"i swear, i can go without eating today."

"like you have been for the past two days?" chan said, tugging at his hair stressfully. "no, i won't allow that."

"but you need to pay for your mum's hospital bills," yeseul frowned. "i'll be fine. i'll eat when you do."

chan sighed, sitting down on the counter. "okay. i'll pay for mum, then feed jiseul, and if we have spare money, we can buy ourselves some food."

the girl nodded, making chan look at her. "yeseul, i've been thinking... let's get life insurance."

"what?!" she exclaimed. "chan, are you kidding? no!"

"just for myself," he suggested. "i'll use the rest of my pay on it."

"listen to me," yeseul said. "life insurance is a waste of money. neither of us are dying anytime soon, and you need that money for more important things!"

"do you trust me?" he asked, making yeseul pause.

"chan-"

"do you?"

she sighed, nodding. "of course."

"then let me do this," he said. "it'll help you in the future."

yeseul frowned. "fine."
