Chapter 196 – Episode 196. A Cut From a Brightly Lit Hotel Buffet
***
“This way, this way!”
“Thank you~!”
Da-Young Da-Young asked one of the hotel employees for permission to take a picture.
He ended up taking pictures of us with Da-young’s cell phone.
Me, Joo-hwan, Jong-hoon, Seul-gi, Da-young, and Min-kyung, the six of us, took a seat at a table in the hotel buffet restaurant, set the table, and took pictures before starting the meal.
“Come on, take a picture~, one, two, three! Now, I’ll go one more time~, one, two, three!”
I took one picture, and as a backup, he took another picture.
After Dayoung finished taking his picture, the hotel employee gave her cell phone back.
Dayoung checked to see if the group shot came out well.
Around her, the other five people, including myself, gathered close to Dayoung and checked the photos.
“Oh~, did it come out well?”
“That’s right. The light came in really well~.”
At first, the kids said they came out well.
Then, Dayoung tilted her head slightly and said her words.
“Ah~, what is it~, Jinhyeok is so handsome that he looks ugly next to me~, I think we are being compared too much? Is it okay for a man to be like this? Wow…”
Then, Seulgi raised her head slightly with a deplorable expression, closed and opened her eyes, and spoke to her.
“Ah! I think it’s really strange that I’m close to Jinhyeok~!”
They spoke one word at a time.
Even such an appearance was nothing special to me at all.
Because I, a handsome man, have always had such things happen when taking pictures.
In the case of men, I don’t really care if the picture looks weird or not, so if I take a picture, I just assume it was taken and move on.
However, when I take pictures with a woman, I pay more attention than a man, so I don’t miss the comparison because of me.
When I think about my days when I was in college, I would like to upload pictures on social media, or in the case of my close friends who are a bit sensitive, I would never take a picture near me in a group photo.
In the case of a two-shot, regardless of whether I went forward, backward, sideways, or far away, I always tended to make my opponent a bit of a relative squid, regardless of gender.
Just looking at the case of Seulgi and Dayoung, who we were together with yesterday, they are on the side of beauty.
However, since taking pictures with me, a situation arose where they were not satisfied with their pictures.
So, as I was used to, I decided to give words of comfort to Dayoung and Seulgi.
“Hey~, why do you care about that~. Isn’t it important that our memories remain?”
I really do have that thought too.
In this short life, except for most of the lives that can become more difficult due to support after having a family, the period in which I can actually play happily and make memories is not that long.
However, despite my words, Dayoung and Seulgi had serious conversations while facing each other, perhaps because they felt that their outstanding looks had been slightly nerfed because of me.
Dayoung looked at her wisdom and said her words.
“Shall we take it again?”
“Do you think it will be the same if I take a picture again?”
At Seulgi’s words, Dayoung thought a little more and said.
“How about filming without Jinhyeok?”
“But that’s a little bit … Would you like to take Jinhyuk with her mask?”
“Isn’t that a good idea? There’s a fine dust problem these days, so there’s nothing strange about wearing a mask and taking pictures.”
By the time the girls were having a heated discussion about the photo, the men hadn’t been very interested in the photo, so everyone had already looked at the group shot for a few seconds before going to their seats and starting to inhale their food.
“Wells … Wow, this is a real dog honey? Hey, what are you guys doing it quickly! Stop!”
“Hey, Kim Joo-hwan, the sweet and sour pork here is awesome!”
“Really? Give me one.”
They were already eating.
And I also laughed and joined their food board together.
“Mum mum…”
It was delicious.
Of the food in Goshichon, there are definitely some good ones, but since eating isn’t my goal, I didn’t eat that much, so it went without saying that the hotel buffet was better than my usual diet.
Looking at us, Dayoung held her forehead.
“Ah~! What if I already eat it~! I was going to take a picture again, because Jinhyeok put on a mask~!”
Kim Joo-hwan smiled and accepted Da-young’s words.
Haha! Dayoung-ah, aren’t you hungry? Didn’t we really exercise all morning yesterday?”
When Kim Joo-hwan said that he exercised subtly, he meant that he and Da-young hugged each other naked all night and fucked each other from place to place.
Since all of us gathered here are adults, there was no difficulty in understanding what he was saying.
And Dayoung, who heard that, smiled and answered his words again.
“Well, it’s not just us, all 6 of us worked really hard all night?”
Dayoung was right.
The moaning of the three couples, which continued until dawn yesterday, resonated very well in the hotel room we had.
At Dayoung’s words, Minkyung, who was quietly eating at the last seat, coughed.
“Collock, Coke!”
Then, Da-yeong, who was sitting next to her, patted Min-kyung on the side and said her words.
The table was round.
I was sitting to the right of Minkyung, and Dayoung was to her left.
“Why are you coughing all of a sudden? Why, what, is there a sting?”
“Ugh~, no, no.”
Minkyung opened her palm and shook it while denying a little too much.
Min-kyung says that she doesn’t get stabbed, but just as we could hear Seul-gi and Da-yeong’s moaning in stereo live in our room, Da-young and Seul-gi must have heard Min-kyung’s moaning vividly.
Of course, even if Minkyung said that, everyone would know in their hearts what had happened the night before.
Dayoung lowered her voice a bit and asked Minkyung some more.
“But didn’t you say you’ve never done it before? Girl, are you kidding? You didn’t seem to be able to enjoy it that well yesterday? I heard it.”
“Hey~, it’s not like that~, what are you talking about~!”
Min-kyung lightly slapped Da-young on the arm and denied her extension.
It was quite embarrassing.
We sat around and ate our meal amicably.
The hotel’s buffet restaurant had a very luxurious atmosphere.
I also wondered if Jong-hoon had considered this.
This restaurant, located on the first floor of the hotel, was quite exquisite when the light came in.
The buffet restaurant was a large space with a high ceiling that opened up about three floors, and the walls on one side of such a large area were all made of glass.
And in the middle of the huge glass window, there were long lines of white curtains that were narrowed at the bottom and tied together.
The white light pouring through the long inverted triangle-tied curtains brightly illuminated the inside of the restaurant.
The texture of the chairs, tables, and floor were all made of glossy wood.
The sight of other people sparsely sharing meals seemed to add to the small vitality of the place.
Overall, I found the ambiance of this place to be quite good.
I thought while eating while looking around.
‘If I pass the civil service exam, I’ll have to come here often.’
I ate mostly meat and fish.
The first plate was set with tuna sushi, ribs, and lettuce salad.
While eating the soft tuna meat that melts in your mouth, and the sweet bulgogi-flavored galbi in the middle, I thought about what to bring for the next menu.
During the meal, he also talked with Min-kyung in the seat next to him.
“Do you like pizza?”
When I asked, Minkyung answered with a smile.
“Uh. I’m a total pizza maniac. If there’s a new menu, try it all.”
It was the same feeling that the wall had definitely disappeared after meeting Min-kyung last night.
She seemed to be more comfortable with me after the fuck.
“Really? Um~, is that why you’re in such a good shape? They say eating milk makes you bigger, but cheese is also milk.”
At my words, she laughed again.
“Hohoho! Ah, is that really, right? I’ve heard of that somewhere, too.”
I naturally asked Minkyung.
“Which pizza do you like best?”
“All!”
Minkyung replied as if it was natural.
So, I was curious about what might be the likes and dislikes among them, so I asked once.
“Um~, then is it okay to put pineapple on pizza?”
“Uh. Anything pizza is good. It’s okay if the bacon is added to the pasta, but I think the taste is a bit offended if it’s added to the pizza… Well, it’s still delicious.”
While eating, I spoke while looking into the eyes of Minkyung, who was sitting next to her.
“But pizza is also quite high in calories. Why are you so skinny?”
“That’s why I only eat occasionally. Well, anyway, when I’m busy with work, I don’t even think about food.”
Hearing her talk, I thought that might be the case.
Eating takes time and it takes some time to digest after eating, so it is doubly time consuming, so I sometimes do intermittent fasting while studying for the civil service exam when things go well.
“Because it’s hard to work at the hospital? Do you collapse and fall asleep as soon as you come home?”
Min-Kyung said her words, holding a fork to the thin pizza on her own white front plate and slicing it with her knife.
“Huh, uh. Watch a movie once in a while, watch a TV variety show and go to sleep. Work seems to reduce my appetite a lot. But, well, what kind of work is not hard? I just want to do it and do it.”
“How long have you been working?”
“Didn’t I tell you?”
“Does it seem like it did? It seems like it’s been quite a while.”
“Haha, from twenty-four.”
Minkyung smiled and replied.
I was the same age as her and I thought she had been working for quite some time.
“Ah, it’s been three years, already.”
“That’s right. Time flies.”
She told me again
“Jinhyuk.”
“Uh?”
“But… Can you give me some more time tonight?”
“At night?”
“Uh. You’re preparing for the exam, but it’s a bit like subtracting a whole day.”
I could feel Minkyung’s consideration.
Rather, my heart moved there.
If she hadn’t said that and said that she wrote her annual leave and of course we should spend another day together, I might have gone back to study altogether.
But since Minkyung had said that, I felt good about her, so I wondered what it would be like to meet her once more at night after finishing her day study.
I’ve already told Minkyung about not making her a girlfriend.
It’s something she knows about.
And, when I talk about it, most of the beauties don’t say much about it.
In some ways, it can be a strange thing.
Usually, when a man and a woman meet, they naturally think of meeting each other one-on-one for a long period of time.
But for me, most of all, most of the beauties don’t wonder if I have a girlfriend.
Most of the time, whether I have a girlfriend or not, whether I know I’m not dating, they just want to see me one more time.
It was the same in the case of Minkyung.
I was in such a situation, and I answered her thinking that it would be nice to meet Minkyung once more because of her consideration.
“Hey, but you left the company, so I’m a bit sorry. I’ll rest just for today.”
Then Minkyung lowered her voice and said.
“Um… I…”
She said her
“Maybe it’s my first time, so my lower stomach hurts, and it’s okay to sleep a little longer. After you’ve done your work, finished your studies, why don’t you go out to play in the evening?”
Minkyung said that again.
I answered.
“Thank you for saying that.”
“Haha, what~.”
“Where do you want to go?”
When I asked, Minkyung took a sip of her drink and thought for a moment before speaking.
“Um~, I haven’t thought about it in particular, but I don’t have one right now.”
She replied.
I had so much experience dating so many beauties, I could instantly think of her and where she wanted to go.
I told her, remembering where I wanted to be with her Minkyung.
“I’m somewhere I want to go with you. See you tonight.”
Minkyung smiled and replied.
“Huh!”
