      KMH – Chapter 16 Cover
      by Peach Moose Jugyeong turned her head over her shoulder to add one last thing, then faced forward again. Seju felt the pulse slam hard against the inside of his wrist. He felt it flutter beneath his ear, too. He also saw it—how the tension had drained from Jugyeong’s pale, prominent hand only at the moment she’d said congratulations. Seju stumbled closer and came to stand beside her. He didn’t have a plan. He was just dying with regret that she’d turned away too quickly for him to properly see her face. He…

      ATTEW – Chapter 17 Cover
      by Peach Moose People are, after all, just animals with highly developed instincts. Someone once said that when an unusually sharp sense of foreboding strikes, the odds are high that something bad—an accident or incident—is about to happen. Maybe that was true. A little past 2 a.m., Eunho woke up and sat bolt upright when she realized both sides of her were empty. Just moments ago, Gyueon had been sleeping to her left, Eunsil to her right. Yet now, less than two hours after they’d fallen asleep, both were…

      ATTEW – Chapter 16 Cover
      by Peach Moose After making her seal as well—press, press—the child made her oppa promise, again and again, that he had to come quickly. Then, as if she’d never been reluctant at all, she flitted off and ran toward the other kids her age who were peeking over. “…She went.” “Yes.” “Thank you. For calming Gyueon down.” “No, it’s part of my job.” For a few seconds, Eunho’s eyes met the man’s—Seo Jae-eon. He hesitated like someone who still had more to say. Eunho knew what he…

      ATTEW – Chapter 15 Cover
      by Peach Moose A place where Director Han Seonghui was gone—replaced by the new director, Park Gyedeuk. “Whew…” Just thinking of the new director made a sigh slip out on its own. It struck Eunho again that meeting Seonghui had truly been a stroke of luck. If Seonghui hadn’t come all the way from Incheon to the Night Pass police substation that day— if she’d gotten sick of the traffic and simply turned back— “….” If Eunho had grown up under someone like Director Park…

      ATTEW – Chapter 14 Cover
      by Peach Moose On the day she first entered the childcare center—after crying for a long time in Seonghui’s arms—Eunho was allowed, thanks to Seonghui’s consideration, to wash alone in the tiny bathroom behind the director’s office. Standing under warm water and washing as thoroughly as she could—missing spots here and there, but still trying her best—the blood and grime rinsed away well enough. But then came the problem. She had nothing to change into. Seonghui had stepped out early so Eunho…

      by Peach Moose “I want to hire an assistant teacher, but there’s no one suitable. If it’s okay with you… could you help me for just one year, Eunho?” “Me…?” “No matter how I think about it, I don’t know anyone as smart as you, or someone who could look after the children as well as you can. Room and board will stay the same as now, and your pay…” “…A little above minimum wage.” “Director…” “And on weekends, I’d like you to get another part-time job. So you can build…

      by Peach Moose “It must have been warm inside.” “……Yes.” As Eunho was led into the building by the director, she thought that Seonghui’s voice and touch felt like a blanket wrapped around her body and head. Soft and warm—just like that. Seonghui guided Eunho into an office space with a few desks. A small sofa with neatly designed cushions looked cozy, and the room was filled with gentle warmth. “This is the space the teachers use.” “…….” “But if you go a little farther in,…
