The Garden of Boredom

Description

Seven years ago, my older brother left home. Now, I receive news that he has fallen into a coma—delivered by his ex-fiancée.

“That’s right. What Kyuwon promised to give me… was a child.”

He offers a deal: his life in exchange for me taking his place.

“I just need to receive—from anyone. That’s all.”
“That’s ridiculous. I’ll… I’ll find a way. I’ll take care of my brother, no matter what.”

It was something I had never imagined before. But the moment I refused, everything began to fall apart—almost as if the world had been waiting for it.
It took less than a year before I was utterly crushed by the wall of reality.

In the end, Seo Jungwon goes back to Kwon Taehee and accepts his offer.

As the time spent with Kwon Taehee grows, so does Jungwon’s feelings for him. But just when it all seems to deepen into something more, Jungwon learns the truth behind why his brother ended up in a coma—as if it was some cruel joke of fate.

“You lied to me.”
“Does it matter? Lie or not, I was still your best option, Seo Jungwon. Who else would have helped you?”

Watching the two brothers dance on the palm of his hand—what could he have been feeling?

“Seo Kyuwon is dead.”
“…”
“Whether it’s pride or conscience you’re clinging to, what good is that now?”

Jungwon never expected an apology, but he certainly didn’t expect such cruel humiliation either.

“The contract is void. My brother is dead… Goodbye.”
“You’ll still have to leave the child you’re carrying behind.”

Seo Jungwon decides to leave Kwon Taehee behind, to take revenge.
Together with the child—the one who was supposedly meant to only receive from others.

“Don’t worry. I don’t intend to raise either.”
