Chapter 115
Da-eun looked around the room.
“It’s spacious…”
The guest room that Justina provided for Da-eun was quite large. The headboard of the wooden bed had a glossy shine. When Da-eun touched it, she could feel the smooth texture of the wood.
‘Isn’t this what they call a patina from frequent use?’
Da-eun thought to herself while stroking the headboard. She considered that anything would end up this way after long use, but wooden furniture seemed to acquire a patina more readily. The glossy, faded bed that Da-eun was touching was proof that many hands had touched it over a long time.
Someone who valued cleanliness or preferred new things might have been horrified and run away. But at least Da-eun wasn’t that type of person.
If she had to choose, Da-eun found this kind of furniture more endearing.
“It has a charm. It feels kind of serene.”
Living in a country house with a yard, sitting on a worn-out rocking chair, and looking outside. Short grass swaying in the wind, and the occasional chirping of birds acting as raindrops that gently soften a desolate heart.
