Chapter 71 – Abduction – Yoo Ji-Gyeong
〈 only friend 〉
“Brother, are you good at grilling meat?”
“Okay? I’m glad.”
The man grilled the meat with a light smile. Yoo Ji-kyung put his chin on his chin and looked at the man.
‘I didn’t expect to get close with this oppa.’
The man did not stand out. He has a normal appearance and doesn’t do anything that stands out. The only contact he had with her was that they were in the same department and class.
It was at the smoking area that I started talking to such a man.
Yu Ji-kyung, who was in her senior year at the time, was about to become an ass in her department. During the winter break, she participated as a practice, and she was at the company because she stole her boyfriend from the same department. Rumors spread throughout her department, and naturally she was left alone.
Yu Ji-kyung didn’t care about the rumors about her going to school. She simply passed away her eyes as they whispered and stared at each other.
Rather, she maintained a more assertive posture. She didn’t want to think of the people she would fall off without checking back and forth because of these rumors as friends, and she wanted to know what reputation she cared about now that she was graduating in just a year anyway. So she started to openly smoke her cigarettes, which she had been hiding for image management.
She and she met this man at the smoking house.
Who always went alone. A strange rumor circulates that if you get close to it, you will lose luck.
She didn’t particularly care about rumors, but Yoo Ji-kyung was curious about her and she looked at the man. Did she feel the gaze? The man who spotted her was embarrassed and she said hello first.
“Oh, hello.”
“… Why are you respectful? You are older than me and older than me.”
“Haha. Because this is convenient…”
He was a man with an awkward, innocent smile. She didn’t seem to be avoiding her like the rest of her, perhaps because she hadn’t heard her gossip.
Yoo Ji-kyung smiled and said.
“Could you lend me a cigarette? I want to smoke at the beginning of the year, but there is only one person in charge.”
“Ah yes. Of course it’s fine. Get a lighter here too.”
“Put. Thanks.”
After that, she occasionally smoked a cigarette in the smoking area. It was always her side who approached him first.
From time to time, he and her ate together. Yu Ji-gyeong had discovered him first and approached him. He made a somewhat troubled face, but did not avoid it. Are you still not aware of the rumors?
Contrary to expectations, the man knew the rumors right away.
“Did you know? Since when?”
“Yeah… From the beginning?”
“… But why didn’t you avoid it? If you go out with me, there will be bad rumors going around.”
“Uh, um. Even if it’s not that, I don’t like rumors, so it’s okay. And… “
The man smiled bitterly and said.
“If you go alone, you are lonely. Hard.”
“…….”
Yoo Ji-kyung knew it only after hearing that.
I was lonely and it was hard.
I thought I was getting along just fine on my own, but pretending not to notice the whispers behind my back was painful for anyone. Unknowingly, she was under a lot of stress.
Yoo Ji-gyeong kept her mouth shut with a complicated face, and the man continued talking in embarrassment.
“That, and rumors are usually inflated in a bad way. Ah, my rumors are roughly correct, but…”
“Brother.”
“Uh huh?”
“Can I call you brother? I’ll stop talking.”
“Uh? It doesn’t matter.”
“Tell me too brother. Just call me by name.”
“…….”
There was no reply, but from that day on, Yoo Ji-kyung contacted the man more often and got closer. How hard was it to pick up just one phone number? He was a surprisingly expensive man.
The man didn’t contact me first, as if he was trying to distance himself for some reason, and he didn’t even have a seat in private. It wasn’t because of her rumors surrounding her. The man and I still smoked and ate together at school. He even helped her write a self-introduction letter for her job. She thought it was simply because the man was shy.
The first time he had a drink with him was today, the day of graduation. The man who did not come out no matter how many times I suggested him accepted the offer for some reason.
As soon as the graduation ceremony was over, she dragged him around. She also went to the cinema and bowling alley. She and she were now sitting across from each other over a table of drinks.
The man said
“Ji-kyung, how was your job? You said you put in the papers the other day.”
“Ah, that. Sorry! My older brother even helped me with my self-introduction… I failed the interview.”
“… Okay?”
“Yes. What will happen next This is the second time.”
“What about the professors? Since your grades are good, can you recommend me?”
“Well. That is… The professors must have heard the rumors too. Oh, but a few people suggested it, but I turned it down because it wasn’t the company I wanted.”
“… It will be next time.”
“Put. Are you comforting me? Thank you, brother.”
“Haha. Come on, let’s drink.”
Yoo Ji-gyeong bumped into the glass the man held out. And she drank the soju in one gulp and then brushed off her glass.
“Hey, that’s good. It’s been too long since I’ve been drinking with anyone.”
“Don’t drink too much.”
Contrary to what the man said, Yoo Ji-kyung quickly emptied her drink her. She passed well like water, probably because it was a drink she hadn’t had in a long time.
“I think you are drunk….”
“A. Something like this Aren’t you drinking too much?”
“What am I… Drinking alone often.”
“Oh come. You drink better than you look.”
More and more bottles appeared on the table. The man drank a lot better than I thought. Even with the redness on his face his, he grilled the meat perfectly.
On the other hand, Yoo Ji-gyeong was drunk for the first time in a long time and exceeded his limit of her. So it must have been. What caused me to say useless words.
“Chi. Is it my fault? Is the sex bad?”
“Ji, Ji-kyung. Calm down.”
“How can I calm down? You know, because you heard it too, right? How could I have known that bastard was my ex!”
The “Youngster” Yoo Ji-gyeong refers to is a male employee she met at the company where she went to practice.
“No, isn’t it wrong for a bastard who has a girlfriend to seduce another woman? She says something to her ex-boyfriend her, so I don’t understand why she’s fucking with me.”
The employee I met at her practice was her classmate’s boyfriend her. However, Yoo Ji-kyung didn’t know that, and she accepted the staff’s approach first. She was just that. However, all sorts of rumors spread around the school.
“I didn’t even know he had a girlfriend? Then who is at fault that kid was wrong Isn’t that right, brother?”
“That, that’s right. Whatever the case, you did nothing wrong.”
“Right? But why… Mr. Why are you yelling at me puppies. Bad boys. If it wasn’t for those bastards, I would have already gotten a job. I need to make money fast… See.”
I was so embarrassed to say it. I was so upset that I felt like crying.
“… Ji-kyung, everything will be fine.”
The man gently patted him on the back. Yoo Ji-kyung’s memories ended there. She had overdone her drink and fell on her table, and the man panicked and eventually carried her on his back her.
The next day, Yoo Ji-gyeong woke up in bed. When she opened her eyes, she was unconscious with a hangover and a headache. A moment later, realizing that it was a motel and not her home her, she screamed in surprise.
‘Crazy. Did I sleep with you?’
The memory of her banging her head on her table is over. If so, he must have moved himself. When he checked that it was a motel, all he could think of was with him. Yugi’s face turned red.
‘… But why can’t I remember?’
Sleeping was fine. She didn’t even keep her virginity her very much, rather, because she liked sex. And if the opponent is him… She thought it was all right.
It was just that she slept with him, but it was unfair that she couldn’t remember anything.
But she soon found out that wasn’t the case. There was a note on the table next to the bed. He left behind
– I bought milk, so eat it and relax. And cheer up. Everything will work out.
Yoo Ji-kyung smiled rejectedly.
“This mugwort is real. How can she just leave without touching a woman while she is sleeping….”
Now I see that the clothes are the same. It really looks like you haven’t even touched a single finger. Now that she had reached this point, she even wondered if she had no charms in herself.
Yoo Ji-gyeong immediately called the man.
Turr- turr-
– If you cannot answer the phone…
“Are you sleeping?”
She shook her head, thinking that it might be. He had been drinking too much, so he must have gone to bed by now. The moment she thought that far, she suddenly remembered her memory from last night.
Yu Ji-kyung grabbed her head and made her scream.
“Quaaaaa! What should we do! Crazy! Hey, you crazy bitch! Yoo Ji-gyeong, you stupid bitch!”
She couldn’t bear it without cursing herself in the dark history that came like a tide.
‘Sex is bad?!’
‘No, how could I have known that man was my ex!’
‘Isn’t it wrong for a bastard who has a girlfriend to have sex with another woman?’
‘I don’t understand why she’s fucking with me when she says something to her ex-boyfriend.’
No matter how much she drank for the first time in a while, she said she had exceeded her limit her, how could she say such a thing in front of her brother her? She wondered what the hell she would think of herself.
Yoo Ji-kyung soon started biting her fingernails and turning her happy circuit.
“No. Maybe this brother doesn’t care about that. He knew all the more nonsense anyway, but he got along just fine with me… What! Is it the same as hearing a woman say rice cakes or sex directly from her mouth? You crazy bitch!”
Yuji-gyeong tore her hair again. After running wild for so long, she suddenly realized why she was fussing so much.
“… Madam. I like that brother.”
She just needed someone to hang out with, but before she knew it, she fell for him.
Yu Ji-kyung liked him for not caring about her rumors. She was comfortable being with him, and she liked that he listened to him silently, and that he didn’t shy away and match his revealed personality with her. Even though she seemed ignorant, I liked that she was kind and caring, and even though she seemed timid, it was also good that she had a clear subjective point of view.
From a certain moment on, she was looking for her inconspicuous strengths her one by one.
Yoo Ji-kyung shouted as he picked up her pillow and threw it.
“Oh really! Why just go! Let’s run over!”
After realizing my feelings, I felt more unfair.
Is it really a man with a dick to leave her drunk and defenseless and go without touching her?
Yuji-kyung sighed deeply at her. She picked up the chocolate milk on the table. When did she even prepare straws? She took a sip of milk and grumbled.
“Because I can do it next time….”
She had time left until she got a job anyway. Yoo Ji-gyeong decided to pursue her next opportunity.
… But the next opportunity never came.
After that day, she lost contact with the man. He didn’t answer the phone, and he didn’t reply even when I called him. She even visited the house, but she was still silent.
“This brother is real! Let’s see who wins!”
Now that she had reached this point, she went to visit him not because she liked him, but because she was angry.
Several weeks passed like that.
In the meantime, Yoo Ji-kyung, who got a job at the company she wanted, went to his house her on the weekend to buy chicken and beer. The news of her employment had already been announced by her through KakaoTalk a few days ago.
“Hey! Open the door! Don’t avoid it, face to face and talk!”
Bang bang!
She shouted and knocked on the door. But the answer still doesn’t come back. She instead opened the door from her next door neighbor and came out when she heard the commotion.
Ji-kyung Yu shrugged her shoulders because of her guilt and looked back at the person next door to her.
‘Hick… It’s very pretty.’
An incredibly pretty woman came out. Even though the dark circles under her eyes her came down thickly, the beauty was buried.
‘Wow. She’s as pretty as Hayeon.’
I wondered if this was how she was so damn pretty. Yoo Ji-gyeong forgot that she had to apologize and she looked at the woman. Her woman her called her
“Excuse me.”
“Oh, sorry! It was very noisy.”
“That’s fine. The man who lives there has moved.”
“Yes?”
“I saw you packing your things the other day. I thought I should let you know.”
“… Thank you.”
Yoo Ji-kyung said goodbye and left. He just took a taxi and went home. I threw away the chicken and beer in his hand and lay down on the bed.
I was lying there in a daze, when a KakaoTalk notification rang. It was a notification sound that only one person had set aside.
“… Brother?”
Yoo Ji-gyeong jumped up and checked KakaoTalk.
– Congratulations on your job, Ji Kyung-ah.
– I just moved. Spend a lot of time thinking
– Once again, congratulations on your job, and I hope everything goes well in the future.
– Don’t reply. It’s good that you don’t get involved with me anymore. And I’m going to delete your number, so I won’t answer even if you call.
Yu Ji-kyung’s face contorted horrily after checking her message her.
“… This is real!”
She lifted her hand her, which was holding her phone her, over her and carefully put it down. She was angry and she wanted to throw something but she couldn’t, so her insides her boiled.
“If you don’t like it, look at her face and say that you don’t like it!”
Why are you sending me this text?
Yoo Ji-kyung bit her lip and stood up. She took out her beer, which she had tossed on the table. She felt like she needed to drink something.
*
Unlike the human mind, time does not stop. The four seasons passed again and again, with buds sprouting and flowers in full bloom.
Yu Ji-gyeong turned 29 years old before she knew it.
Through her days as her new employee, she was recognized as a fairly capable editor. As she built her career and changed her job a few times, her salary her went up quite a bit. She paid off all of her debts promptly, and now she is an employee of a fairly successful publishing management.
“Jigyeong-ah, how did that go?”
“Ah, Mihwa sister.”
“He is real. Because she calls me the boss. Or the manager.”
“Hi-Hi. Sorry. I did everything you asked me to do. She even consulted with the writer. I organized the data and sent it to her team leader via email. Oh, and I’m talking about the illustrations. There is someone else the author wants…”
– Giing!
“Oh, sorry. I will drag you.”
“Nope. Pick up the phone first It might be the author.”
“Yes.”
Yoo Ji-kyung took out her smart phone her. Then, checking her screen her, her eyes her widened.
“Sister…”
“He really is. Calling you the boss… Jikyung, are you okay?”
“Sorry. I’m going to call you for a minute.”
Yoo Ji-kyung went out into the hallway answering the phone without answering. She heard a strange voice over her phone.
– … Are you friends with your brother?
It was a completely different female voice than she expected. Ji-kyung Yu was taken aback, so she asked again.
“That’s right, but… Who are you?”
– … They are my brother and sister.”
“Brother… What? Uh, that, girlfriend?”
– Oh no! I’m a younger brother.
“Ah. Younger brother. But why is her brother her…?”
Yu Ji-kyung tilted her head. She was the first to know that he had a sister, but she thought it was her second her and she had a sister. Why did she call herself?
– My brother a while ago…
Yu Ji-kyung almost dropped her phone at the sound of her voice. She lost her expression her from her face her.
Yoo Ji-kyung said in a cold voice.
“Excuse me. Is it fun to play with people?”
– Yes?
“Why are you making prank calls like this! You don’t even have a motherfucking father…”
– No, it’s not like that! I called you because you are my brother’s only friend.
“What?”
The woman continued.
-In the phone book on your brother’s phone… There was only one on her friends list of hers. Yu Ji-kyung is one of them.
“…….”
-I contacted her friend because I thought I should inform her. I hope you don’t see the text….
“… I’m sorry for what I said earlier.”
– No. Rather, thank you for being angry. My brother still had one friend…. Well, if you have time, I would appreciate it if you could come.
Yoo Ji-kyung replied that he understood and hung up on her. When she checked her phone, there was already a text message during the day.
– We inform you of the obituary because the late Seo Joo-hwan, the son of Seo Jae-pil and Seo Ae-ra, has passed away.
– (Sangju): Seo Jae-pil, Seo Ae-ra, Seo Ju-hee.
– (Empty cow): …….
Yu Ji-kyung silently lowered her head. She couldn’t possibly have gone so far as to prank her with so much effort. She hoped it was a bad prank call.
“Pup. Didn’t you contact me until the end?”
She had already thought that over the years she had forgotten once upon a time. But I guess she wasn’t like that. Her chest her tightened.
She said, “She said she erased her number her….”
Her eyes blurred as she bit.
