She had been blind since childhood. Fortunately, her elder brother, who had gone missing and then been found again, was always there to care for her, so she could get by without too much difficulty.
Their close bond as siblings lasted seven years, until the day he decided to leave home and join the army, when it suddenly grew distant.
Later, when she was promised in marriage, he heard the news and rushed back to the family home day and night. But she stopped him outside her room, citing the difference between men and women.
A fierce wind blew and rain poured outside. He stood at her door with a bitter smile, his voice hoarse and reproachful. "You've grown up, miss. You're not like you were as a child, when you'd rush over as soon as you knew I was there..."
To hug me.
Her resentment toward him began with his words, "Whether it's true or not, I can't." Later, pretending to marry someone else became the first step in her revenge against him.
On the night he came home, a small cup of wine got him drunk, and he did something absurd: he shared a bed with his younger sister.
He was mortified, but his younger sister comforted him. Things between them weren't what he had thought.
He finally began to relax, until after her wedding, when she returned to visit her family. She suddenly took his hand and placed it on her belly, smiling brightly. "Brother, guess whose child this is?"
