FAMILY MEETING

CHAPTER 24

Today is my mother's and my birthday, and Eric's family will most likely arrive around 2 p.m. I'm not sure why Eric decided my birthday was the occasion to bring his family here.

"Yujin, my daughter, happy birthday. Best wishes in your career life." My mother kissed my forehead and cheeks.

"Thank you, eomma, and happy birthday to you as well." I hugged Eomma.

"Happy birthday, daughter, and best wishes for a successful career. "Maintain your health and happiness." Appa also kissed my forehead.

"Thank you very much, Appa." I hugged him.

"It's just 7 hours before they arrive, Yujin. Have you finished packing? Because you're taking them home today, right?"

"Yeah, I have everything ready."

"You'll leave so soon, even though it hasn't been five days."

"What can I do? I have a lot of stuff to prepare for tomorrow, so I have to return to Seoul today. After all, last night, we enjoyed a celebratory birthday meal at Ma's restaurant."
