Unnatural love
What would it be like if you hugged me? I think it would be fine if it were you. So, should I just go for it?\n\nThey say love and colds cannot be hidden. Natural, who worked as an assistant teacher in a daycare, receives a personal request from Heejin, one of the few working moms at the kindergarten. On days when she gets off work late, Heejin asks her to take care of her daughter Minji for just a few hours at home.\nAs requests and thank-yous are exchanged a few times, Natural becomes convinced that she likes Heejin... Natural's confession shakes Heejin, who has been carrying deep loneliness due to her ex-husband's infidelity.\n\n<Excerpt>\n\n"I... I don't really know."\n"Is that not okay? Do you dislike using me?"\n"It's not that..."\n\nHeejin trailed off, averting her gaze from Natural. She felt Natural's eyes persistently following her. Even in the dim room lit by just one lamp, she could feel it well. Heejin was conflicted. However, when Natural reached out her hand, Heejin firmly grasped it, and when Natural kissed her hand, she did not stop him. Heejin quietly called his name.\n\n"Natural..."\n\nIgnoring her pounding heart, Natural gently lifted Heejin's chin. Heejin stared at him and closed her eyes. Natural recognized that signal and carefully pressed his lips against Heejin's. The warmth of those lips was hot, clinging to Natural as if it had been waiting.
