“You are messaging again?”
“Don’t say again. It’s the first time I received one. Look. Is it still the problem of our actions? You are making it look like that.”
“I wooooonder. Just messaging is a dubious situation. Look. We aren’t messaging with the other teams right now. And it’s the same for you. Did you message someone else that’s not Kaya?”
“…….No, it isn’t even that kind of message. Look, screen. ‘Traitor. Ruin yourself.’ There’s no romance at all?”
“Romance is seen differently by each person. In my eyes, it looks like you are midway.”
Joanne put a detestable face and just clapped with her palms while her wrists were sticked. Jo Minjoon shook his head as if he was exhausted.
“Just finish cleaning the fryer. There’s dirt in it. Do you want to keep idling around?”
“You just act strictly in these kind of situations. I won’t even be able to tease you because you are afraid!”
“…….You talk like teasing me is an obvious right?”
“Hmph, leave it.”
Joanne turned her head while pouting her lips and cleaned the fryer more harshly. It was at that moment when Jo Minjoon let out a sigh and was turning his head. An “Ah.” along with silence was heard. It was Peter. He was looking down at his hands while frowning. Jo Minjoon put back his scrubbing brush and hurriedly went to Peter.
“What is it, Peter. Are you hurt?”
“……No. Just a little bit.”
“Give me your hand.”
Peter let out a sigh and extended his hand. Jo Minjoon’s face became serious. The injury in his palm was quite deep. It wasn’t as deep as the injury in Jo Minjoon’s thumb, but it was three times longer than it.
“Hey, it’s not just a bit. What are you doing without going to the doctor quickly. No. I will bring him.”
“Wa, wait……”
After we ignored him, he hurriedly went to the steps and looked for a doctor. The doctor looked at Jo Minjoon with a dumbfounded face.
“Why are you looking for me? Did the injury open?”
“No. It’s not me, but my teammate that got hurt. It’s a knife cut.”
“Oh my…… Understood. Wait a little.”
The doctor hurriedly brought the medical tools. As he went to Peter, he was holding his wrist strongly as if trying to control the hemorrhage. However, his palm was already full of blood. While the doctor was treating him, Peter kept looking dispiritedly at the floor. Jo Minjoon felt rather bad looking at his face. He didn’t seem to be simply putting that face because of the injury.
After Peter got his hand treated and was resting, the checking of the cookingware finished. Jo Minjoon looked outside the truck. And he saw Peter seated absentmindedly. Even though he sat next to him, he didn’t look back at him. Jo Minjoon opened his mouth because he was feeling frustrated.
“Why are you this dispirited?”
“……..What are you talking about?”
“Even listening to your voice you are buried deep in the earth. If by chance it’s because of what happened that time, don’t mind it. Because I don’t. It’s something that passed. You can make some mistakes while cooking.”
“I’m not like this because of that.”
“Even if it is or not, in the end you admitted it. That you are dispirited right now.”
Peter bit his lips. Just like the majority of indians, he also had a stubborn face. So he rather detested his face that wasn’t saying anything. Jo Minjoon grabbed his forehead and said.
