There was a woman. She was perfect in every aspect, her only defect being no eyebrow. She always penciled her eyebrows with heavy makeup. But she was not well. One day, she found a lover. They did love each other. Her loved one was such an emotional man, and he treated her with kind-heartedness. Finally, they got married. She was always afraid that having no eyebrow might be discovered.
Keeping her own secret, she spent two years. She thought he would dislike her if he once knew the secret. She did not want to even imagine that his gentle eyes might change into the eyes of contempt by the fact that she had no eyebrow.
Three years of her married life passed with her secret kept. One day, there came an unforeseen misfortune to this husband and wife. His business on the rise came to fail in an instant. They were forced out of their house, and they had to start everything at the bottom.
The first one they did was briquettes delivery. They delivered briquettes to houses helping each other. When the husband drew the cart filled with briquettes ahead, the wife pushed the cart from behind.
One day afternoon, spring wind was blowing in a rustle. A wind from the hill blew briquette dust over her face. Tears came into her eyes, and she felt sore in the eyes. Lest it should be found out, she couldn't do anything with that. At the moment, her husband stopped walking and came close to her. He began to wipe dust from her face with a towel. He did not touch her eyebrows. After he wiped her tears out as well as dust, he began to draw the cart again with gentle smiles on his face.
