Chapter 322 – 322. Catfight (7)
As I was tossing and turning in my sleep, I tried to hug something that came into my arms, but I opened my eyes to find that instead of muscles, I was only grabbing a bunch of flesh.
… Ah, it’s him again.
Joo-hyuk is nowhere to be found, and instead, my younger brother, who stole my blanket, is sleeping awkwardly, so I get out of bed right away before I feel like kicking him.
If I break it, it will be bothersome again, and anyway, Joohyuk will have been tempted by Hinami because she said something strange again.
When I think about it, he started stealing from me only after I was asleep.
Of course, I think it’s better than touching each other skin to face, but…
I feel bad for no reason.
Because I have no idea what you’re talking about while I’m away.
“Ugh…”
As soon as he stands up, I stretch him out, slightly relieve his stiff body, then pick up his cell phone and step into the living room.
Naturally, I thought it would be dark and tried to use the flashlight on my phone to illuminate the front, but for some reason, as soon as I opened the door, a soft orange light clearly illuminated the living room.
However, even though the living room was bright, it wasn’t particularly disheveled, or the sofa was wet, so I didn’t have any suspicions and calmly walked to Joo-hyuk’s room.
In case I woke up, I opened the door carefully so as not to make any noise and went inside.
“… “There is none.”
Neither Joohyuk nor Hinami could be seen on the bed.
The bedding was also clean and free of any blemishes.
… Then there is only one room left.
Using that room in our house at night meant only one thing, so I frowned slightly and carefully opened the door.
Then, I saw the tightly closed door of the soundproof booth and felt a slight vibration inside it, where no sound was coming out.
… No way.
It’s 3 in the morning now.
Oh, I guess not.
Me and Ye-eun are definitely quite… I did it.
Still… ?
But once doubt passed through my mind, I couldn’t open the door easily.
No matter how Hinami violated her in front of me, I could have let it go,
Because I didn’t want to see Joo-hyuk, who had been doing it all this time when I wasn’t there, and was exhausted and tired, putting sex on the back burner and just having a friendly chat.
Rather…, You can do that if you make the sound so loud that it can be heard outside the soundproof booth.
Since it’s accumulated that much, I can understand if it’s due to lust rather than emotion.
But-
“…”
The soundproof booth handle, which was slightly shaking earlier, did not shake again.
Has he fallen asleep, or is he whispering a story as if he were asleep?
Unless I see with my own eyes what is happening inside,
There was no way to find out unless I opened the door of this tightly closed box.
So I,
Holding the handle of the door that doesn’t even move,
It turned noisily.
“…”
The room was dark.
However, the faint light coming from the living room told me at least that there were two people on the bed.
The two of them, covered in blankets and breathing heavily, didn’t look like they were awake.
But…,
They were hugging each other affectionately.
… Just like I always did.
“… Kang Joo-hyuk.”
“…”
Even though nothing I was particularly worried about happened.
Even though I’m just quietly sleeping.
For some reason, I felt like I didn’t like it, so I called Joo-hyuk’s name, even though I knew he might wake up.
But my small voice did not reach him,
Instead of me, he hugged tiny Hinami tightly and smelled her deeply.
“… “Master.”
“Eww…, Ah. Haeun…”
When I looked at Joo-hyuk sleeping like that, I wasn’t even angry, so I got on the bed and called out to him clearly in his ear.
Only then did Joohyuk wake up, closing his eyes tightly, turning his head to look at me, scratching his head, letting go of Hinami and sitting on the bed.
“Sorry, I stretched out too early, right?”
“…”
Actually, I wanted to blame my master, but I deliberately squatted down on the floor and apologized to him, looking up at him with glaring eyes.
He sighed like a master and wanted me to drag me to his empty room, saying it was his fault.
I hoped that the mean master, who said that but never gave up on cheating, would not change.
But my master sighed, and instead of apologizing, he held my hand.
“… “Your period ended a few days ago, Ha-eun.”
“Huh. Why?”
“Are you taking your medicine?”
“Yes.”
“… Hang up From today.”
… Me.
The words I wanted for so long.
Without any warning.
As if deciding on a breakfast menu, he blurted it out to me.
That is…, I was so happy to see you.
“…”
The expression on Hinami’s face, sleeping peacefully in the seat next to her master, with her bare skin clearly exposed.
For some reason, it looks so similar to my face right now.
So…,
Because you look happy.
I felt a much deeper and more persistent doubt than the doubt I had before.
“… No way.”
“…”
“No, right?”
“… That’s right.”
There is no need to express the question in sentences.
We exchanged meaning only in short words.
Since we knew everything about each other, we were able to understand each other clearly without making a single mistake,
… That’s how much I love them.
I couldn’t sit quietly on the floor.
“… Why?”
“I just happened to see it.”
“It just so happened…, With the words. It’s not something you can beat up.”
I knew it.
How much Hinami relies on Joohyuk.
But I don’t think they would go out of their way to do something like this…, I couldn’t imagine it.
Because he was a cute kid who always gave in to me.
I don’t know if Ye-eun was just upset for a moment, but I thought she wouldn’t ignore me.
But my faith,
That obnoxious girl betrayed me with ease.
“… She said she wanted to get pregnant. Before the contract ends.”
“I can handle it… That’s not possible.”
“I’m going to hide it and go to Japan and give birth. … “They said they would put her baby in her mother’s family register and pretend to be her younger brother.”
“… Ha.”
On the topic of idols.
Unlike me, who can be honest anywhere, I have to deceive the world.
I was so scared of that little idol who had planned out the future and slapped me on the back.
… I was afraid.
Because I think you might choose him over me.
Because I think she might be pushed out of this position.
My heart was pounding because I felt like I was going crazy.
There was no time to feel betrayed.
Because I know better why Joo-hyuk gave in to temptation.
I am the most…,
Because I understand those two well.
“I won’t say I’m sorry. Because you too will be responsible. “I’ll give you everything, whether it’s marriage or childbirth, if you want it.”
“… Were you threatened by him?”
“No.”
“I didn’t just say it. … “I know he’ll kill himself without you.”
“… “I didn’t think that far before I committed it.”
It was fortunate that he didn’t make excuses and say it was a mistake or apologize.
This means that you have made up your mind to that extent.
Whether it was an impulsive emotion or a sense of responsibility for the woman he had ruined, it didn’t really matter.
The important thing is that the accident has already occurred.
… And,
The fact that no one has any intention of running away.
“It’s okay. … “As long as you don’t abandon me.”
“I don’t do that.”
“But not him.”
“Hey, wait a minute!”
“Ugh…”
Either me, you, or my younger brother.
Our lives are already tied to this horrible and dirty man.
So, you probably went in with some preparation.
Betraying your fans, betraying your agency, and turning the world into an enemy.
I committed it because I came down from the top where I could see everyone, and was prepared to fall into a swamp where everyone would criticize me.
“Hey, Hinami.”
“Ah, sister…”
Wow.
… I got on top and helped with one hand.
It won’t be unfair.
Isn’t it?
“…”
As soon as she opened her eyes and got hit by my slap, she opened her eyes round and caressed her numb cheek.
Then he closed his eyes tightly and offered his other cheek to me.
“… “I will take care of your child first-.”
With that obnoxious tongue, he pulled my palm to his cheek.
… In fact, her head turned with a snapping sound that made me wonder if my palm was hurting even more.
“… Hehe.”
“It’s absolutely crazy.”
“It’s the same with my sister. … “Isn’t it common sense that you should slap your brother instead of me?”
I covered my swollen cheek with my hand and kept talking back, laughing as if I was dumbfounded.
I ignored the words of such a cocky kid, got down from above her, and clung to Joo-hyuk’s back.
“Why me? … No matter what you do, my master likes me more.”
“Puhuh…”
“Be pregnant or whatever, do whatever you want. Because you’re the one who’s tired, not me.”
“Aren’t you anxious because you want to do it too?”
“… It was like that before, but not anymore.”
“What is it, really…”
… Because I didn’t want to get pregnant by being swayed by that crazy idiot.
Because of crappy feelings like guilt, responsibility, or sense of debt.
Because I didn’t want to see him choose me.
“Let’s go, Joo Hyuk.”
“Okay.”
I am…,
I hoped he would choose me solely out of his own will.
Instead of taking my side, like now, as if there was nothing I could do, or with a good-natured smile that wouldn’t be suitable for a man who isn’t particularly nice.
Because you want me.
He wants to make me his, so he doesn’t know what to do.
Just like back then
Just like when it first attacked me.
I wanted to be chosen by him who was excited by a woman named ‘Seo Ha-eun’.
… My relationship with him is,
Because it was definitely not for half a year.
