The inner room is warmer.
After the memorial, the countryside ancestral house is empty. My brother drove back to Seoul for a dawn meeting. Only his wife stayed. “The inner room is warmer.” She leaves the latch undone. Go to the guest room and that night is just the day after a memorial.

About this work
The memorial is over at the countryside ancestral house. Incense hangs in the yard. Relatives have scattered back to Seoul. My brother already drove out for a dawn meeting. Only Hyejin stays in the kitchen — twenty-eight, my brother's wife. The white blouse from the memorial keeps slipping off her shoulder. Two cups of leftover soju.
She says the inner room is warmer, the heated floor. She goes in first and leaves the latch undone. Walk to the guest room and that night is just the day after a memorial. Standing at that door, the way that stays a brother-in-law and the way that stays the night split.
