"I have things to do, maybe another day."

"Okay," Kwon Jin said, jaw stiffening and turning to leave.

He wouldn't beg, never, but he still had a question he turned once again.

"Abeoji, why was chairman Seo here?"

The old man, who was already on his way to his office, suddenly froze and turned to answer his son, "does a friend need a reason to visit?"

With that, the two men went on their way. Kwon Jin knew his father loved using paraboles and metaphors when avoiding a subject.

Kwon Jin looked back at the hospital before climbing in the jet-black Genesis G90 waiting for him, "don't forget abeoji. What's yours is mine," he murmured to himself.

Whatever information his father was holding back concerning Seo Kwan Gi, he would find out.

After a hard day filled with meetings tired, Kwon Jin returned home to find a wife he barely recognized. There was a psychical change that was obvious and a mental shift in which Kwon Jin was on the verge of discovering?

"Oh, Hye Ra, youー."

"Cut my hair, don't you like it?"

"You know I prefer women with long hair. It's more feminine," the man said as he loosened his tie.

"Do I seem to be less of a woman to you?"

"I didn't say that it's just hair is part of woman's charms. A man likes to contemplate a woman who is enticing andー."

"You don't find me attractive? I'm I no longer enticing, or was I ever anything else than a contract with Intech?"

Kwon turned to stare at his wife, trying to impose authority with his gaze.

He wondered where his obedient wife had gone and hoped her newfound tongue was temporary.

"Listen, Hye Ra, I've had a hard day. I'm not in for one of your little tantrums. I know you've been through a lot, and I'm trying my best, but please give me a break."

Hye Ra smiled.

"I'm sorry, honey, how indelicate of me you work so much how can I be so unthoughtful. I'll make myself as small as possible you won't have a reason to stress about me again.

For the first time, Kwon Jin distilled sarcasm in Hye Ra's tone of voice.

"Hye Ra, what is wrong with you?"

"Nothing, I'm just a woman who had a miscarriage and who sees her husband about 5 hours a week. Apart from that, I'm perfectly fine."

"I think you should book an appointment at the Hong Byeongwon. You need to talk to someone," Kwon Jin said and grasped Hye Ra by the shoulders.

Hye Ra chuckled," omo, Kwon Jin, do you think I'm crazy?"

"Miscarriages can cause psychological trauma," replied the man as though he was an expert on the subject.

"Oh, Kwon Jin, you are so not in faze. I don't need a Doctor. What I needed was a husband, but it doesn't matter, not anymore.

Hye Ra turned and headed to the kitchen with these words, where she served herself a glass of Bourbon, leaving Kwon Jin asking himself why his wife spoke in the past tense as if he were dead.

안녕하세요,

This chapter makes me sad for our grandad.

Seo Kwan Gi was not going to be able to defend himself. He was easy prey. When one has Alzheimer's, anyone can convince you of a reality, which isn't true. So you guys can imagine how the older man's police interrogation went.

The chapter is called FLoPPY DiSks because it's an old storage device that I think many of you haven't even seen in real life. Most readers are probably of the USB generation. I chose the name because of father Seo and father Hong, who are falling into old age.

Music:

100% BTS with DNA and the latest track MIC DROP.
