After Ten Millennia in Hell-Chapter 43Epilogue - Summer Vacation (5)

Thankfully, because Cha Yeon-Joo and Lilia regrouped with them just in time, the zipper test in the bubble onsen managed to be canceled just in time. It might have continued if it was just Yeon-Joo but they couldn’t make love with Lilia present.

“Haaah~! It feels so good!”

Yeon-Joo stretched in satisfaction after coming out of the bubble onsen. Seol-Ah walked out after Yeon-Joo as she dried her hair with a towel and nodded.

“The water was warm and the bubbles were soft, so it felt very nice.”

“Hmm. I personally prefer the Bloody Spring...” Lilith expressed.

“Bloody Spring? Where’s that, unnie?” asked Yeon-Joo as she tilted her head.

“Hm? Haven’t you been there with my love?”

“Ohh, that red lake?”

“Yeah, there.”

“What a name. It’s good and all but it drops the ball visual-wise.”

“Oh? Doesn’t the fact that it looks like a pool of blood make it even better?”

“Oh, right... You’re a demon.”

Yeon-Joo shook her head in disgust. The blood-red lake they had entered during their trip to Hell was a nice hot spring but a lake that sucked out one’s life force couldn’t compare to a bubble onsen in an ultra-luxury resort.

“Father! Beloved Father! I’m so dizzy because it’s been so long since I’ve been to a hot spring~!”

Lia excessively swayed as she placed her hands on her head. Kang-Woo chuckled at Lilia’s obvious wiles.

“You look fine to me.”

“Ahh, I’m so dizzy that I’m losing strength in my legs...! I don’t think I can move unless you carry me in your arms!”

“Alright, alright. Come here, my little princess.”

“Ehehe. I love you, Beloved Father!

Kang-Woo carried Lilia in his arms and headed to the family spring occupied by Kim Si-Hun and Layla who had come out just in time.

“Did you spend a nice time with sister-in-law, Si-Hun?” Kang-Woo asked.

“Ah... Ahem! O-Of course.”

‘The hell? What did you do in there for you to be so flustered?’

“Fufu. We had a very~ nice time together, didn’t we, my little doggy?”

Layla smiled as she groped Si-Hun’s butt.

“I-I told you not to call me that in front of hyung-nim!”

“Hohoho. How could I not when you’re this cute?”

Kang-Woo could easily imagine what happened inside from how glistening Layla’s skin was.

“Let’s see... Where should we go this time?”

“I saw a wave pool on my way here. Wanna go there?” Yeon-Joo asked.

“Oh, sounds good.”

‘You’ve gotta go to a wave pool in a water park. That aside, how much goddamn money did they throw at this place to have a wave pool at a resort? This is on the same level as a water park at this point.’

The resort was extremely expensive but it was worth it.

“Are you coming with us, Si-Hun and Layla?” asked Kang-Woo.

“Of course. Oh, but...” Layla frowned worryingly. “Si-Ah isn’t back yet.”

“Oh, wasn’t she with Kang-Hyun and Kang-Hee?”

“Yes. Yeon-Joo said they would join us later because Kang-Hyun was tired, but... she hasn’t called yet.”

“I’m sure they’re having fun as a group.”

“That’s what I’m worried about.”

Layla was worried that three children who weren’t even ten years old were going around by themselves without a guardian.

“She’s with Kang-Hyun and Kang-Hee. It’s not like she’s by herself. It should be fine as long as they’re sticking together, right?”

“Hmm... That may be true.”

Kang-Hee aside, Si-Ah and Kang-Hyun were mature enough to take care of themselves.

“Even so, I don’t feel comfortable leaving three kids without a guardian... Let me call them,” said Layla as she pulled out her smartphone to call Si-Ah.

“Wait a second, sister-in-law,” Kang-Woo interrupted.

“Yes? What’s wrong?”

“Si-Hun and I are here, aren’t we?”

They could easily handle any incident that might hypothetically occur in the resort.

“Why don’t we leave the children to play on their own?”

‘Spending time with parents is important but kids need time to play with other kids too.’

Kang-Woo did not want to spoil the precious memories the kids could make when it was just them.

“Hmm.” Layla fell into thought with her arms crossed.

“I’m not forcing you or anything. If you’re worried, you’re more than welcome to call her and have them regroup with us.”

Layla shook her head and smiled faintly. “No, as you said, I think it would be better to let them play on their own.”

As Kang-Woo mentioned, kids needed time for themselves as well. They couldn’t be babied like a baby kangaroo forever.

“Thanks,” Kang-Woo replied.

“Fufu. In that case, shall we spend some quality time as couples?”

“Hehe. Adults need some quality time too, after all.”

“I mean, adults plus Lia.”

Layla giggled and headed to the wave pool.

“Hmm... He’s with Si-Ah, huh?”

Kang-Woo crossed his arms as he watched Layla get further away. He recalled Kang-Hyun when he blurted out that he had impregnated Si-Ah. It was a misunderstanding and Kang-Woo had been mindblown beyond belief to think carefully about it at the time, but he remembered his son saying he would take responsibility for Si-Ah.

‘My son has a crush on Si-Ah.’

Kang-Hyun may not have realized it, but Kang-Woo was sure he had some feelings for her.

‘Maybe they’ll become a thing for real?’

Kang-Woo welcomed it. He had not talked much with Si-Ah but knew she was a well-mannered and kind-hearted girl.

‘And she’s as pretty as one would expect from Si-Hun’s daughter.’

She would grow to become the most beautiful woman in the world.

‘It won’t be just the two of them since Kang-Hee’s there, but...’

Kang-Woo was sure some special feelings would bloom between them as he spent time at a resort with his childhood friend whom he only spent time with at school.

“Hehe.”

Kang-Woo couldn’t help but smile as he imagined Kang-Hyun together with Si-Ah.

“Si-Hun,” he called.

“Yes, hyung-nim?”

“You might become my actual little brother at this rate.”

“Pardon? What do you...”

Kang-Woo paid no mind to the confused Si-Hun and headed to the wave pool as well, smiling in satisfaction.

‘Son. I’ve set the stage for you, so it’s all up to you now!’

“Umm... G-Guys!” shouted Kang-Hyun as he was dragged by the two girls.

“What?”

“Is something the matter, oppa?”

“S-Shouldn’t we go back? Uhh... O-Our parents must be worried.”

“I just got a text from Mom that we can play together more.”

“Oh... really?”

“Oh, as I’d thought, you didn’t want to hang out with that girl any longer, right, oppa?”

“Oh Kang-Hyun... is that true?”

“Huh? N-No! That’s not it...!” Kang-Hyun furiously shook his head.

Kang-Hee smiled and pulled Kang-Hyun toward her.

“You heard him, unnie. Why don’t you stop acting like a clingy girlfriend and go away?”

Si-Ah pulled Kang-Hyun toward herself and answered, “Are you deaf? Kang-Hyun clearly said that wasn’t the case.”

“Hah. How can you live being so clueless? Oh, right. You have no friends besides oppa. Right, unnie? I can see why now.”

“You say that, but do you have friends?”

“I-It’s not that I can’t make any, I don’t make any!”

“Ohh~ sure~ pfft.”

The two girls glared at each other ferociously.

“G-Guys... P-Please... Please stop...”

A single tear flowed down his cheek.

“It’s already two. Time sure flies when you’re having fun,” said Seol-Ah as she checked her smartphone.

“I’m getting hungry. Shall we get something to eat?” Kang-Woo suggested.

“Would you like me to make something? I brought cooking utensils and ingredients just in case...”

“We’re on vacation, no need to make anything. Let’s just order.”

Kang-Woo couldn’t allow his wife to work when they were on vacation.

“Hmm. I like making your food better than eating out...”

“Even so, let’s order food for today.”

“Okay.”

Kang-Woo turned to Layla as they headed to the private area they had left their bags in earlier.

“Have you eaten, sister-in-law?”

“No, not yet.”

“Want to eat with us, then? Darling said earlier that they’ll deliver whatever we want to eat.”

“Oh, sounds good. Let’s eat together.”

“Okay.”

Kang-Woo arrived at the private area and ordered using the tablet in the hut.

“First, I’ll order pizza and burgers for the kids...”

“I looked at the menu earlier and they don’t have kimchi stew.”

“Gasp.”

‘What a sorry excuse for a resort. How dare they not put kimchi stew on the menu when it’s a Korean resort?’

“Yeon-Joo! You know the owner’s number, don’t you?!”

“Stop fucking around and order something else, dammit. Don’t complain about kimchi stew when we’ve come all the way here.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Kang-Woo dejectedly ordered something else as Yeon-Joo slapped his back in displeasure.

“Oh, the kids are back.”

They saw Kang-Hyun, Si-Ah, and Kang-Hee coming from afar as they were waiting for the food to be delivered. Kang-Hyun, standing between the two girls, was devoid of life as if he had watched three horror films back to back.

“Haha. I wonder how much fun Kang-Hyun had for him to be so drained of energy?”

“Uhhh... he looks more like he was brought back from the dead,” Yeon-Joo remarked.

“It just means he had that much fun.” Kang-Woo smiled in satisfaction and walked over to his son with his arms stretched out wide. “Son~ did you have fun?”

“Father...” Kang-Hyun stared at Kang-Woo lifelessly.

“Haha! You’re hungry, aren’t you? The food will be here soon, so you’re just in time!”

“I see...”

“Your auntie suggested we call you guys back because she was worried about leaving you guys alone, but do you know what I said?! I told her not to because children need time to play with each other!” Kang-Woo shouted as he pounded his chest.

However, he did not notice his son’s expression crumpling rapidly.

“...”

“Did you have lots of fun with Si-Ah thanks to m... Hm?”

“You told her... not to?”

“S-Son?”

“Why did you do that, Father?”

“Son...? Wh-What’s wrong? Huh?”

“WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO ME?!!”

Kang-Hyun turned back and ran away in tears. Kang-Woo dumbfoundedly stared at his son getting further away.

“What was that...?”

‘What did I do wrong?’
