When My Share Keeps Growing

When you separate what the other person did from the answer you gave right away, it becomes a little clearer where you can choose your next words.

What task was decided recently without asking you?

That Monday morning, I stayed with the moment “It’s fine” came out before the moment her requests increased. The task decided without asking and the task Seojin immediately took on were connected in a single line. If you carry a similar scene, tell me what you couldn’t say to whom at the time.
