Chapter 41 – Part 1
She lifted her head, which had been naturally lowered in front of her because of the cough that kept bursting out, and what came into her eyes was Yurin looking down at me with her face full of worries, as if she had been flustered.
She looked fresh and smiling at him, making direct eye contact with her.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she laughed anyway.
“I heard that smoking makes you feel better, so I tried it once, but I can’t smoke. Now, I’ll give it back.”
“..That.”
“Ah, would it be right to clean it up and return it?”
“Oh, no..! I-I…! I… I’ll take care of it.”
“Would you like it then?”
He smiled and leaned her upper body back.
As she leaned against the back of her bench, the starry night sky, like Gangwon-do, flickered in front of her eyes.
Then he muttered.
“Hmm.. Women think so.”
Perhaps in response to those words, a restless expression came from right in front of me.
“Huh? Won’t you come in?”
“That-“
“I’m sorry again, so if you’re going to do something, just don’t do it.”
She must have tried to say sorry again.
When I glanced at her and threw her gaze at her, I could see that she was biting her lip.
“Are you so sorry?”
“..Anyway, it’s true that I was wrong too.”
What is this naive creature?
“Did you do anything like a leader in high school?”
It was a joke I threw out just in case, but surprisingly it seemed to be the correct answer.
Yurin’s body shuddered and trembled, showing a reaction that would have been seen by someone who had been stabbed in the middle.
And from Yurin, it must have been a fact she wanted to hide.
“That… Is it obvious?”
“I just felt that way without knowing it.”
“I’m sorry..”
“But how did you end up smoking?”
A leader and a cigarette.
I couldn’t say it was a suitable combination.
Could it be that he smoked because he was curious about how many cigarettes were confiscated?
As he was thinking that maybe that was the right answer, a completely different answer came out of Yurin’s mouth.
“I think it’s good to smoke even a little if you want to live a social life.”
“No, what is that… Who the hell is that?”
“That, on the Internet…”
It was absurd, and it was a reason I hadn’t even thought of, so I laughed out loud.
“For that reason, just don’t smoke.”
“Yes?”
“It’s not good for your body. Don’t you hate your boyfriend?”
“.. Huh? A boyfriend?”
“Huh? No?”
“Yes, yet…”
By still, that means you’ve never dated anyone.
“That’s right. Sorry. I knew it would be there.”
“No..”
“Then you haven’t bought one yet?”
“..Yes.”
Even if she sold her side, she could have covered it up with lies, but Yurin was very honest. I guess that’s just her personality.
“It’s strange. I’m sure you got a lot of confessions from boys when you were in school.”
“No, never…”
“Really? I guess they didn’t have eyes to see because they were kids.”
It seems that my soft compliments made him feel good.
Yurin’s cheeks were flushed with a different feeling than before.
“Hmm.. Then can I ask you something?
“Yes? Oh, yes…”
“You know that story.”
Although she deliberately left out the subject, Yurin would know what the story meant.
As expected, as soon as the words came out of her mouth, Yurin startled and trembled.
She continued to say what she was trying to say regardless.
“What do you think?”
“..Yes?”
From Yurin’s point of view, was it a question she hadn’t even thought of? She asked as she opened her eyes wide.
“That—they said they were spawning me, saying I was like a rag..”
“…”
“Does it look that way to you too?”
“..No!”
It was a pretty firm denial.
To the point where I wonder what the basis for being so determined.
“Why?”
“Yes..?”
“Why do you think not?”
She asked with a grin, as if asking her to say something, and Yurin swallowed her saliva.
As if preparing your mind before bringing out a very important word.
Then-
“That… Don’t you remember me?”
I put an unknown sound in my mouth.
“..Ok?”
What is this again
“Have we met before?”
“Hey, last year at school…”
“Last year?”
If it was last year, I couldn’t have known.
Because that was before I came into this body.
‘Should I ask if there is any way to find the memory the next time they contact me…’
I don’t know if it’s possible, but I thought I should ask, and pretended to look closely at Yurin’s face, who had her shoulders drooping with her sullen expression on her face.
If another woman had said something like that, she would have said that she was trying to flirt with her once, but Yurin seemed to be the type who wouldn’t lie at all.
That would mean that the two actually met before—
The problem is that Yurin was a high school student until last year, or just a few months ago.
According to the things I’ve been diligently picking up so far, it’s unlikely that ‘Yuhan’, who has an extremely narrow radius of action, went to Yurin’s high school.
‘Is there any chance that a high school student will come to college?’
If you look closely, there was.
There are often cases in which universities open their schools to high school students, such as when taking an essay test or to give them a tour of the school.
“Hey, did you visit our school last year?”
“Yes..! Ho, do you remember? You helped me then—”
Did I judge that I had succeeded in remembering myself?
With a brightened face, I was pouring out memories I had no idea about for a while, but after seeing the expression on my face, Yurin shut her mouth again.
Well, thanks to that, I felt like I knew roughly what had happened.
Yu-rin must have helped Yu-rin in some way, who was in trouble for some reason after a field trip to the university Yuhan attended last year.
Even if an ordinary college student brother did that, he would have fallen in love right away, but what if the person who helped him was ‘Yuhan’…
‘I must have fallen in love as soon as I saw it.’
It must have been.
However, ‘Yuhan’ would not have handed over any information about herself to her Yurin.
According to what I picked up while drinking, ‘Yuhan’ has been burned by women so many times that it seems that he has basically hit an iron wall against women other than Gina, Sena, and Gayoung.
After leaving only memories like a midsummer night’s dream, he reunited with Oppa, a handsome college student, after entering college.
It wasn’t just a reunion, but a senior-junior relationship in the same department.
So, I don’t know, but for Yurin, the existence of ‘Yuhan’ didn’t feel like her destiny.
‘Sir, even if you’re like me, you’ll fall in love…’
I felt like I knew a little bit by now.
If her classmates were talking so excitedly, she would have to say at least one word in order not to be alienated, but the reason why Yurin kept her mouth shut until the end.
As a bonus, the reason why I was able to answer the question I posed earlier was so stern.
“Sorry… I can’t remember.”
“Ah..”
“By the way… Did you come to my school because of me?”
She asked just in case, and to her surprise it seemed to be the answer.
Otherwise, there would be no reason to react as if you were caught stealing like that.
Thanks to this, the fact that Yurin learned was that Yurin couldn’t dirty her lies.
“Oh, no..! Come on, the scholarship is given..”
If you’re going to lie, even if your eyes are shaking here and there, you have to do something, and who will be fooled?
Well, the scholarship itself seemed true.
“Really? I think I did really well on the CSAT.”
“Rice, not so much…”
As if a fire had fallen on her feet, whenever she was flustered, he always complimented her.
To the point where I want to do something without knowing it.
“So when I asked you earlier, you said you didn’t think so?”
“..Yes.”
“Somehow, thank you.”
“It’s all natural…”
“Still.”
After saying that, he stared blankly at Yurin’s face.
From Yurin’s point of view, who likes Yuhan, it seems that my gaze was very difficult to bear.
“Well, if you have something to say…”
To be precise, she must have wanted to ask why she was staring at her so intently.
“I’m just grateful. It’s my first time. A person who trusts me so willingly.”
“…”
“I want to do something, but uh-“
“Okay, it’s okay.”
“Really?”
Yurin did not answer my question.
It was so cute that I unknowingly ate and laughed.
“You really can’t lie.”
“…”
“Hmm, what would be good…”
She pretended to be worried, then smiled and waved her hand at Yurin. It meant to come closer, and the moment Yurin swallowed her saliva and carefully leaned her body toward her—
“Maybe-“
He whispered softly into her dainty ear, peeking through her flowing hair.
“Have you seen the man?”
At that moment, Yurin’s reaction was literally ‘angry’.
Yurin, holding the place where my breath had been scattered just a moment ago, with her hands, hurriedly retreated behind her.
Suddenly, her face turned bright red. She probably thought that if you poked her finger, it would explode with her popping sound.
“That, what is that—!”
“There is?”
“This, this, there is…”
“Really? How?”
“The… On the Internet…”
“Yadong?”
“..Yes.”
“Then actually?”
“Oh, not yet…”
“I’m glad.”
Hearing Yurin’s answer, she smiled.
If nothing else, it was sincere.
She gestured towards Yurin once again.
Aside from embarrassing and embarrassing things, did she wonder what else I would say?
Yurin moved slowly and reached in front of me.
“Actually, I haven’t seen it yet…”
I wouldn’t know if it was the original world, but it was like that here.
“..So the girl’s.”
No, wouldn’t it?
Well, anyway, that’s not what’s important right now-
“So that’s what I mean…”
She whispered it into Yurin’s ear as she gurgled and swallowed her saliva while slightly lowering her tail. The sound echoed back to my ears.
“If you’re okay-“
“…”
“Shall we show off each other?”
A secretly communicated proposal.
Violation of my proposal greatly shook my eyes.
The sound of gulp and swallowing was a bonus.
Even after whispering in Yurin’s ear while leaning her body forward, her body was pulled back for a moment.
Then he patted her face, which was still hot from the alcohol, and fanned her hands.
Then-
“..Isn’t it a bit like that for the male side to do this first?”
Glancing at Yurin, he asked as if floating.
“Oh, no..! Not really..”
“Then?”
“…”
“I miss you?”
After receiving her question, Yurin bit her lip for a while, and finally, Yurin nodded her head.
Just once, no more, no less, she nodded her head and bowed her head.
As if she was ashamed of herself, defeated by a fleeting desire.
After staring at her like that, she jumped up from her seat.
“Let’s go.”
Then, holding her hand, we headed for the place we had been eyeing earlier.
I don’t know why, but there was an outdoor toilet on the parking lot side of this hotel.
It was also a decent size, like a hotel.
It was even clean, whether it was managed separately every day.
“Uh, where…”
“Restroom.”
“Yes..?”
“We can’t do it here. But… We can’t go to the room.”
After answering Yurin’s question, she started walking again.
The outdoor toilet in the parking lot where we arrived was brightly lit despite being far from the hotel building.
Women’s and men’s restrooms.
After thinking about it for a while, I headed to the men’s bathroom.
“Come on, sleep…”
She feels it once again, but Yurin can’t stand her lies.
It was because she had no strength in her hands to speak as if to dissuade her.
“Then are you going back?”
Did you come this far?
I mixed a look of disappointment with a look that seemed to say something roughly, so it seemed that my gaze might have stimulated the pride of a ‘woman’. Yurin bit her lip and followed me into the bathroom.
“..Can you lock it?”
Clap-
The sound of a lock being locked echoed through the bathroom.
She startled and pretended to shake herself, then lowered her toilet cover and sat cautiously astride it.
“Whoa…”
Then she let out a big sigh, as if telling Yurin to listen.
“Really… I’ll have to drink a little bit from now on.”
I’m doing this because I’m drunk.
After appealing to her, she raised her head and looked at Yurin, who was slamming her back against the bathroom door.
“We’re doing this here.
“Oh, no! Never!”
“Shh.”
Yurin covered her mouth with her hand at my gesture, which meant to be quiet, and nodded her head.
While staring at such a violation–
“That…Then, should I start with me?”
I gently threw it.
The sound of gulp and swallowing echoed through the bathroom.
Was the sound too embarrassing?
The moment her face was dyed red with embarrassment, Yurin shook her head.
Then…
“I-I’ll do it first…”
He spat out a single word in a voice so low that it could barely reach even me, in case anyone could hear it.
And how long has it been
The sound of zippers going down began to reverberate through the bathroom.
