Chapter 7 - Chapter -005-

Seo Chan and Ji Won who just got off the bus turned their heads to the right and left, then at the same time they both immediately dropped their luggage on the ground and spread their arms while breathing deeply the mix of mountain and sea air around them. .

"Aaaahhhh, we haven't come to visit in a long time." Said Seo Chan after being satisfied with taking a deep breath in the air around them and also stretching his body that felt a little sore.

Ji Won, who is also satisfied with breathing in the fresh air of the mountains and oceans in his hometown which is currently on the island of Geoje, nodded his head in response to Seo Chan's words.

"Yeah you're right. We only come here three times a year on the anniversary of my grandfather's death."

Seo Chan nodded his head slowly.

"Shall we go straight to your grandfather's grave or put our things at your aunt's house?" Seo Chan asked making Ji Won silent for a moment in his place.

"Hmmm, we should go to my aunt's house first to put all our luggage there." Ji Won answered that Seo Chan agreed.

After that, the two of them walked down the street to Ji Won's aunt's house.

During the trip to the aunt's house, not a few rural settlers who knew Seo Chan and Ji Won greeted them both. Some even offered them a temporary stopover and offered a ride to their aunt's house.

However, Ji Won and Seo Chan politely refused on the grounds that they would return later after visiting the grave of the late grandfather and also after placing all their belongings. Because they will still be in this village for the next three days.

"I don't think they still recognize the two of us, Won-ah." Said Seo Chan in response to an amused snort by Ji Won.

"How can they not remember us? When we were young until we were in junior high school we used to come here almost every Sunday and make a fuss on their plantations?"

Seo Chan's laughter broke out hearing Ji Won's words. Not to mention when suddenly a memory of him and Ji Won as a child flashed through his head.

In contrast to Seo Chan who laughed amusedly, Ji Won could only shake his head with a long sigh when he had to remember the mischief made by Seo Chan and forced himself to be dragged into the troubles made by his best friend wearing this one.

"Hahahaha I remember when I was the one doing the pranks, but you were the one who got scolded from the local residents who were victims of my pranks."

Ji Won rolled his eyes lazily.

"Yes because they are all reluctant to scold you, so I was the one they targeted."

Seo Chan is still giggling and now with one hand wrapped around Ji Won's shoulder.

"They shouldn't have to feel so shy about me. Because I'm just a child who is still so very naughty."

Ji Won, who felt a little heavy and uncomfortable because one hand of Seo Chan was embracing his shoulder, pushed away his best friend's hand. Making Seo Chan who saw it just chuckle while shaking his head.

"Oh yeah, you haven't notified your aunt, haven't you if we're going to visit and stay for the next three days?" Seo Chan asked when he just remembered what Ji Won's aunt would do when she found out that the two of them would visit here.

"Of course I didn't tell her. Because if I did, my aunt and the other citizens would definitely have a welcome party for their young master." Ji Won's answer made Seo Chan heave a sigh of relief.

"Ah, thank goodness you haven't told them. Because I really don't want to bother them just because I came here to visit Grandpa's grave."

Ji Won nodded his head agreeing with what Seo Chan said.

"Besides, if they make a welcome party for us, I will also be the one to bother them, because they have to prepare and clean up everything after the party is over."

Seo Chan couldn't help but laugh at Ji Won's words. Not to mention the memory of every time he came to visit here and the villagers in this village held a welcoming party for him and Ji Won. After every party, he can't find Ji Won's whereabouts, because his best friend will definitely be held hostage by the residents to clean up the rest of their party.

Ji Won rolled his eyes when he heard Seo Chan yan chuckle.

"Just keep on laughing. You're not going to give me a room at my aunt's house. So that you fall asleep in the yard while we stay here."

Still laughing, Seo Chan raised an eyebrow at Ji Won mockingly.

"Are you sure you can do that? I'm sure you'll end up like that if your aunt finds out about your plan."

Ji Won chuckled.

"Tsk, I wonder which member of my aunt's family is it you or me? I don't know why auntie treats you like her own nephew, is treating me like a stranger."

Seo Chan put a small smile on his face hearing Ji Won's words. He again stretched out his hand to embrace Ji Won.

"Then do you want to change roles as me hum? I'd be happy to let you change roles as me."

Ji Won rolled his eyes again after listening to Seo Chan's bullshit words, slightly rudely moving his hand to ward off his friend's hand who was embracing his shoulder.

"Just tell someone else to change roles with you, I'm very, very lazy to bother myself changing roles with you."

Seo Chan's laughter boomed again after hearing the words with a cynical tone that came out of Ji Won's lips.

"Hahahaha, do you dislike my style and social environment that much, that you don't want to change roles with me?" Seo Chan asked with a face pretending to be sad.

Without waiting long, Ji Won immediately nodded his head without any hesitation at all.

"You're right. If I'm my family not working together with your family, I also don't want to play, hang out and be friends with you."

Seo Chan laughed again in response to Ji Won's words that sounded so very, very honest from the bottom of his heart.

Seo Chan reflexively moved one hand to hit Ji Won's back while still chuckling.

"You will definitely feel very, very lost, when it's time that I am no longer in this world ahead of you and the others to catch up with grandfather!"

An amused snort escaped Ji Won's lips.

"In fact I will feel relieved, because it is no longer bothered to take care of you."

After that Ji Won hastened his footsteps leaving Seo Chan who was still stunned to hear his words.

"Hey! Just watch out for you Ji Won-Ah!"
