-29- I’ll Simply Pretend, Even If I’m Hurt
My Gangsta... Girl???
“Cheers!” Your dad raised his glass of wine towards your mom, and the twins’ parents. All of you were in a fancy restaurant near Namsandong.
Your mom tapped her glass with a teaspoon to get your attention. “Everyone.” You sighed. As if she was talking to all of the people in the restaurant, you thought. “I have an announcement to make.”
All of you looked at her. You looked around. The twins’ parents are quite excited, your parents as well, like they’ve all made a plan. *So we kids are the dumb ones. Tsk.*
