KMH – Chapter 9
Even as her breath kept catching in her throat, Seju’s body scent surged in like a tide. He felt more intrusive—more uncomfortably present—than ever. Jugyeong broke into a dry cough, hacking weakly. “Why is this kid so bad at understanding what people say….” Muttering as if he had a headache, Seju tightened his grip. His touch was so rough that, beyond the merciless pressure on her lower abdomen, it felt as if her insides were twisting. Cold sweat welled up, her vision blurring— Seju…-

KMH – Chapter 8
On her way out after finishing the consultation, a call came in from Manager Moon. ―”There’s been an accident on the way, so it looks like we’ll be about ten minutes later than the original arrival time.” Jugyeong stepped into the elevator with a ding and replied, “Okay.” After ending the call in a businesslike tone, Jugyeong leaned her temple against the wall—then caught herself before her body could sag fully. It would be a problem if she fell apart already. After dinner with…-

KMH – Chapter 6
She tried not to be shaken, but it wasn’t easy. He smelled unfamiliar. That faintly sweet scent—like bread browning in an oven in the late afternoon—the gentle, cozy smell of body lotion mixed with the salty tang of seawater… none of that clung to him anymore. All that drifted in on the breeze was a musk—strong, yet delicate. Who could have imagined that a child who used to wring tears out of himself, stubbornly forcing them to come, would grow up like this? From the man standing…-

KMH – Chapter 5
“Jugyeong, Jugyeong….” Jugyeong was dragging in air in short, choppy bursts, like hiccups. A hand that had been wandering aimlessly over her rigid shoulders and back clenched into a tight fist. …Lockdown drill! A few kids who’d panicked during the training they’d done for an active shooter scenario flashed through Seju’s mind. Seju hurriedly pinned Jugyeong down to the floor. Her thin arm dropped—thunk—limp against the boards, and Seju’s heart dropped with it. But thankfully, her…-

KMH – Chapter 4
“If you were me, wouldn’t you feel wronged?” Each time his bright white sneakers thud-thud struck, chunks of grass and dirt tore up and flew. Jugyeong, who’d been pressing a hand lightly to her chest, paused and glanced at Seju. The instant their eyes met, Seju demanded—almost sneering. “You don’t even know me.” “…….” “Then why don’t you like me?” At some point, Seju was breathing hard, and the back of his neck had turned a little red. Even so, his gaze was…-

KMH – Chapter 3
It was around the time the screaming tantrum had started to die down. The boy came tumbling down the stairs as if he were flying, like a swarm of bees. Then he abruptly shoved his face right up close. The force of it made Jugyeong flinch, and she was just about to shuffle backward— When Seju snapped, almost as if firing the words at her. “I know you.” Jugyeong did too. She’d just heard about Seju from Professor Im. Jugyeong’s fingers fidgeted as she replied slowly. “…Yeah.…-

KMH – Chapter 22
At lunchtime, Team Leader Han Yeji followed Jugyeong all the way into the pantry. As Jugyeong filled her tumbler with hot water, she asked, “Not eating?” “Waiting for Junho. There’s a new bean sprout hangover soup place near the courthouse—heard it’s pretty good.” Han Yeji’s husband, Lee Junho, worked as an administrative officer at the Seoul High Court. Unless something urgent came up, the couple usually ate lunch together. “I see,” Jugyeong nodded. Han Yeji studied her…-

KMH – Chapter 21
“Vasectomy is a procedure that permanently blocks the vas deferens for contraception.” He had undergone an STD test along with his consultation for the vasectomy last week. The result: No abnormal findings. Which, of course, had been expected from the start. …Though, admittedly, thanks to Ha Jugyeong, his dick’s market value had briefly dropped to pocket change. Arms crossed, Seju looked down at the test results with quiet satisfaction before finally glancing up at the…-

KMH – Chapter 20
Jugyeong began drafting the contract. At first, she’d been flustered, unsure how to even start—but as time passed, she found herself oddly absorbed in the process. It wouldn’t have legal force, of course, but with every clause she added, a strange sense of calm returned. Like the moment at the peak of a roller coaster—heart clenched, waiting to plummet—when, out of nowhere, safety bars descend one by one and lock you firmly in place. Even if there were an unavoidable crash, at least the…-

KMH – Chapter 2
…Is this guy insane? “Ah.” Jugyeong closed her eyes, swallowing an irritated groan. Right now, she needed to rein in the impulse flaring up inside her. She desperately wanted to ask whether he was drunk—or genuinely out of his mind. Her hand rummaged through her handbag for a stress ball out of habit, then froze. ‘What if the counselor’s advice was just a metaphor?’ Jugyeong knew how stress balls worked. She’d looked it up herself before buying one. Repeating the motion of…-
