My Girlfriend Is Very Good to Me

Our living room, where my family chatters happily every day.

As we were gathered around the coffee table in front of the sofa, we were having a rather serious meeting.

Well.

To be honest, Heena was the most serious. My beautiful wife, who still hadn't lost her looks despite being in her late thirties.

Thanks to Heena and Sarang's help, I had managed to stay relatively wrinkle-free, but I was still an old man compared to Heena. Sad, so sad.

Anyway, Heena was resting her chin on her hand with a shadow across her face, and Sarang was also sitting next to her with a stern expression.

Though she couldn't quite hide the slight smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. Finally, our cute youngest, Somang, was leaning against me, engrossed in his phone game as usual, oblivious to the others.

A sad person, a person pretending to be sad, a person without a care in the world, and me, thinking this might not be such a big deal after all.

Why were we like this on a bustling Tuesday evening? It was because of the bad news Heena had brought home last night.

---

"Honey... What am I going to do...?"

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Last night.

Heena, who had come home from work even later than usual, immediately fell into my arms with a gloomy face. Worried that something major had happened at her company, I held my wife tenderly and asked what was wrong.

And the reason I heard was.

"I... I have to go on an overseas business trip starting next week... for two weeks..."

"Hmm. I see."

"What am I going to do..."

"Huh? Is that all?"

"What do you mean, 'Is that all?'!! I said two weeks!! I won't be able to see your face for two whole weeks!"

"...This is serious! What are we going to do?"

Surprisingly, it wasn't some major issue like a project falling through, a subordinate making a huge mistake, or getting caught up in office politics.

It was just an overseas business trip. Something she'd gone on occasionally before. Although she'd managed to keep them under a week until now, this one was relatively long.

Even so, I didn't think it was something to be this serious about, which made it hard for me to empathize. Of course, I couldn't show that in front of Heena.

I'd miss Heena if I couldn't see her for two weeks, but with the kids around, it would pass quickly... Ah, from Heena's perspective, she wouldn't be able to see the kids either, so it might be harder for her.

I didn't know what to say to my cute wife stomping her feet in front of me. I couldn't tell her not to go.

A day passed, and now tonight. After Heena came home from work, we gathered as a family for an evening meeting.

---

In reality, Somang and I had no say in this meeting. We had no voting rights. Somang was still too young, and I couldn't take sides between the two of them.

"Han Sarang. From today until the weekend, Mom's going to monopolize Dad. Got it?"

"No way! Mom, didn't you say you'd be getting off work around the same time as me starting tomorrow? When am I supposed to play with Dad?"

"Mommy won't see Daddy for two whole weeks!"

"Well, that's true, but..."

"Do you accept it or not?"

"Ugh...!"

Sarang's heated debate with Heena seemed like it would end with Heena's one-sided victory. It seemed that even Sarang could sympathize with not being together for two weeks.

Besides, if she endured for a week, Sarang and Somang would have me all to themselves afterward.

As I was listening to our children's reactions with concern, it seemed that Sarang would be taking Somang out to play for a while, which was a relief.

And I even started to think that this might actually be a good opportunity. While I was happy that our son and daughter loved me, I absolutely didn't want them to become distant from their friends because of it.

Just as I've maintained good relationships with my friends until now, friendships made in middle and high school often last a lifetime.

Anyway.

"Mmm.."

"Heena, let's just go to the bedroom. Sarang and Somang might feel uncomfortable."

"Should we? Then I'll quickly wash up... No, let's shower together!"

"Hmm..."

At those words, I glanced towards the kids again. Sarang was hugging Somang, planning what to do tomorrow.

It looked like they were intentionally giving us space because of Heena's request(?), so maybe it would be okay to slip away together?

Of course, our kids probably knew that Heena and I sometimes showered together, but it still felt a bit too blatant.

Given our sweet children's consideration, I decided to do my best for my wife, who would be struggling with her business trip next week.

Looking up slightly at Heena, who had her arms around my neck, I whispered softly in her ear.

"Then today... shall I wash every inch of our Heena clean?"

"...! Yes! Please do!"

Seeing her face brighten and her eyes start to burn at my words, I realized we'd better use the bathroom in the master bedroom. It's much smaller than the living room bathroom, but.

Judging by Heena's mood, this wasn't going to end with just washing her. Using the living room bathroom's tub would be a problem because of the noise.

---

And so, during the weekdays.

Heena showered me with affection as if we'd gone back in time, and I eagerly reciprocated. Sarang and Somang, considerate of their mom, either came home late or gave us space to be alone even when they were around.

These days, they seemed to enjoy playing as a trio with Jooeun so much that I was almost worried about how late they were coming home.

Of course, worry aside, I was also getting quite excited about having time alone with Heena after so long.

On early Friday evening, with three days left until Heena's business trip.

Sarang and Somang went out again, saying they'd play with Jooeun, while we sat comfortably in the living room watching a movie. Heena was sitting between my legs, and I was hugging her from behind.

Suddenly, Heena let out a small laugh.

"Hehehe..."

"What's so funny all of a sudden?"

"Remember? When we first started dating, watching movies like this at my house."

Of course I remember. Wasn't that when we tried to have our first kiss but got interrupted by her parents coming home?

"The first time I visited your house, right?"

"Yeah~ When our first kiss failed!"

"Wow... That's a real throwback. It's been 20 years, hasn't it?"

"That's right. It really has been a long time..."

Heena's voice was still full of laughter, seemingly lost in fond memories. It is a nostalgic memory. We probably have quite a few photos from that day if we dig through our old albums.

Thinking about this, I gently cupped Heena's chin with one hand, turning her face towards me.

As her head turned naturally, I tilted my head slightly to the side and kissed Heena's lips.

-Smooch.

After a brief kiss - one of thousands, maybe tens of thousands we've shared by now - I smiled at Heena.

"Is that what we were trying to do back then?"

"Mmm~ If we had, wouldn't it have been more intense?"

"Well, with our Heena being so pretty, we couldn't have ended it there, could we?"

"That's right~" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

There's no way our first kiss would have been like that in those innocent days.

In the end, the movie became background noise as Heena turned to face me, and we shared another long kiss.

After a while of intense skinship that almost left us breathless, Heena spoke up with a slightly flushed face.

"Honey, let's go on a date tomorrow. Just the two of us."

"Of course we should, with Sarang and Somang being so helpful."

"Hehehe... You're right. Our kids are really too sweet~"

We'd had occasional dates just the two of us before, but it had been a long time since we spent an entire weekend together like this. Our daughter usually wouldn't let us.

And so, we made plans for a weekend date and started planning what to do, one by one.

Just like we were back in high school.

Unable to hide our excitement.

Author's Note:

These days, weekend cafe management has been intense, so I might not be able to post on Sunday this week either... And slowly, My Girlfriend is Very Good... Um...
