Hyun Jo seemed calm drowning with Sanubari. Although he could not swim, he was not afraid of the shipwreck. In his belief, as deep as a puddle, there must be a surface that can be stepped on. He just needed to hold his breath longer, and that was one of his skills. Then, walk underwater to find a way to the surface.
The incident in childhood made him obsessed with being a human being who could last a long time in water. Instructors, gym teachers, even his own brother had already tried to teach Hyun Jo to swim. However, Hyun Jo still could not until now.
From the other side, Jae Hyun opened his eyes wide. He's looking for his brother's whereabouts. "geuneun eodi issseubnikka?" her inner self wondered where Hyun Jo drowned.
Shortly after, he found a man who was trying to rise to the surface while carrying another man. It's about four meters from Jae Hyun's place. Jae Hyun recognized the clothes one of the men was wearing.
"ui yeojiga eobs-seubnida. Geuga teullim-eobs-eo," Jae Hyun thought when he found the two. Not wrong anymore. That must be Hyun Jo. Jae Hyun was very sure. He swam towards the spot where his brother was taken.
Meanwhile above, Sai did not join the cast. He's been reading Sanubari's profile. There is no way a teenage gold medalist in an international swimming olympiad could sink so easily. In addition, Sanubari also holds the world record as the fastest swimmer.
There is nothing to worry about from Sanubari when it comes to dealing with water. What Sai worries about is the presence of external factors that might make him unable to swim.
"Thank God," Sai said when he saw Sanubari's head sticking out to the surface with someone.
The teen's head was turned to the right and left, it seemed like he was looking for a way to climb up after looking up for a moment. The walls that flank the river are very high. Impossible to climb. Then, he recalled the tethered boat he noticed from above before falling down.
Sanubari twisting the bow. True to his memory, the motorized boat was still in place, and not far from there was a ladder up. It was the nearest stairway from where Sanubari floated. The man swam over.
Arriving at the edge, Sanubari helps Hyun Jo climb to the flat floor before herself to ride along. Sanubari. Her body felt heavy as her clothes absorbed the water. He raised his head. The warmth of the sun touched his face.
Suddenly, Sanubari chattered, "When life is not friendly with you, befriend nature! Nature can give you warmth you might not get from the people around you."
Hyun Jo frowned. He did not understand Sanubari's words at all. But he still listened.
Sanubari thought Hyun Jo was going to kill herself because of exhaustion. Therefore, he tried to give advice.
"You can feel it, right?" Sanubari continued, "the sun's rays are warm, although they can sometimes become stinging heat. That's life. Sometimes it sucks like the sun's excessive heat. Sometimes it can be as pleasant as the sun which gives warmth in the morning. No matter how we are on the sun, its existence is needed for the survival of all creatures on earth. Had the sun not been there, the earth would have been an icy plain, some creatures might have been extinct."
Sanubari recalls the contents of a book that Zunta had read. When Sanubari was still blind, there was not much he could do to pass the time.
If you are tired of walking or tired of playing, usually Zunta will read books to him. Instead of reading a fairy tale or a child's story, the five-year-old girl read science books instead. Not infrequently, Sanubari had to hear complicated medical theories. So complicated, that some do not go into the head of Sanubari.
"Don't end your own life before its time! If God lets you live, it means God wants you to do something in this world. Other people are not the determinants of your life. Make yourself useful to yourself and others, like the sun on the earth. That way, your life will be more valuable. Although other humans still humbled you afterwards, there would be at least no regrets about having wasted your life. God loves you. He'll love you more when you become an unyielding human being."
His Japanese language is only used occasionally when he goes to a convenience store or has to speak outside the scope of the Eiji team and the Mohammad family. Since Hyun Jo was silent, Sanubari unrelentingly continued to speak. Until finally, Hyun Jo's eyes again caught the movement of the white butterfly.
His head followed the movement of the approaching butterflies. The insects settled into Sanubari's wet hair. For a second, Hyun Jo noticed. Then his mouth opened.
"Prophet sohwan mabeob-ieossna?" tanyanya who mistook Sanubari's long speech as a butterfly summoning magic. Because, the butterfly approached and stayed in his hair after Sanubari said a long sentence that Hyun Jo did not know.
What's?" sontak Sanubari turned her head as soon as she heard Hyun Jo's voice.
The butterflies fly back. Hyun Jo no longer chased after him. His interest was diverted to something else.
"Sohwan mabeob-eul galeuchyeo juseyo!" Hyun Jo asks Sanubari to teach him the summoning spell.
Sanubari was a little flabbergasted. Between the ages of ten and twelve, Sanubari learned the language he had just heard. Kelana sometimes also told him to read Webtoon. Because in addition to teaching materials, Webtoon can also be entertainment. The vocabulary that the man next to her spoke was on one of the Webtoons she had read.
"Jumun museum?" sanubari's reply was to switch to Korean. He tilted his head, confused by the spell Hyun Jo was referring to.
"Thick, mabeob-eul galeuchyeo juseyo!" Hyun Jo kept begging Sanubari to teach him.
"The mabeobsaga anida. Eotteon jumundo moleunda." Sanubari did not mean to refuse, he was not a witch or shaman who mastered any kind of spell. Sanubari was honest.
This conversation felt strange to Sanubari. He began to think that Hyun Jo might be crazy. Sanubari did not think he would meet a mentally ill person who was good at speaking Korean.
While Hyun Jo considers Sanubari's words as a rejection. Right at the end of Sanubari's sentence, Jae Hyun appeared from the water. Sanubari and Hyun Jo turned their heads, provoked by the gurgling sound Jae Hyun made.
"Gomawo, gwaenchanh-a." Jae Hyun was grateful that his brother survived unharmed.
He went up to the floor. Just as the man managed to set both feet, Hyun Jo pushed him. Jae Hyun widened. His body moved backwards. He also returned to the river.
Sanubari's allegations against Hyun Jo grew stronger after the incident. The man who had just ascended was exactly the same face as the man he had just helped. Sanubari believes they are brothers. However, the man next to him even pushed his own brother.
"What the fuck is this guy?" Sanubari turned to Hyun Jo, inexhaustible.
After dropping his own brother, Hyun Jo's expression looked serious. There was not a single paper-thin smile. Sanubari suddenly goosebumps.
