Chapter 25 – If There Are Good Things, There Are Also Bad Things.
Song Hana, who only looked at her face and did not open her lips, made a dumbfounded sound when she told him to go to the bathroom with her.
“I was going to go to the bathroom and get some water, but she doesn’t have enough hands.”
“Ah…”
“What were you thinking?”
“… I didn’t think anything of it.”
Just like when she had just entered the classroom, Song Hana turned her head.
‘Shall we go out further?’
I couldn’t see her face, and even her ears were hidden by her hair,
There are many ways to check whether her face is flushed or her ears are bright red.
He overtakes Song Hana, who slowly moves her steps toward the bathroom, following her arrow.
“Ah…!”
“You said you needed to go to the bathroom.”
“…”
Song Hana pursed her lips and her face and ears turned bright red. Early in the morning last Thursday, Song Hana and I experienced an awkward situation.
At that time, she was so drunk that she didn’t think much of it, but even after the drunkenness disappeared, her memories remained.
Song Hana glanced between my legs, and there was blood on her thing.
A man and a woman touching each other’s thighs,
And the man with the force underneath and the woman who witnessed it,
If they were not lovers, the situation was bound to become awkward.
“It’s not like that…”
“Otherwise, there’s no way she’s a girl who communicates well with me like this?”
Even though I was off on Sundays, I often exchanged messages with Song Hana from Thursday to Saturday.
“Huh…!”
Since Song Hana expressed her interest first, I am also greedy.
He walked up to Song Hana, who had stopped walking, put his arm on her shoulder and pressed his body close to her.
Song Hana offered her shoulder. Her flushed cheeks and newly red ears were still there, and her hands were neatly gathered.
“Let’s go to the bathroom quickly and buy some water. The kids will misunderstand if you stay outside for too long.”
“… Yes.”
More than just her friend, Song Hana thought of me as a man.
He didn’t move the arm I placed on his shoulder and walked right next to me, even matching his steps.
“Sun…?”
Even when I arrived in the bathroom, I had my arm on Song Hana’s shoulder.
“It’s for both men and women.”
“Write it first…”
The karaoke bar that Kim A-ram was recommended by Choi Tae-wook was cheap, but the bathroom was poor.
“I don’t have time.”
I was grateful to Choi Tae-wook for the bathroom shared by men and women.
“Ah…! Write it first…! Ugh!”
Due to her parents’ obsession and Lee Kang-hoon’s surveillance, Song Hana dreamed of breaking away.
She first suggested Kim So-yoon to her drinking party, and it was Song Ha-na who also invited me to her drinking party.
“… Taeyang, please let go of my hand.”
Song Hana, who continued her drinking session and borrowed her drunkenness, attempted to touch me without hesitation.
“I’ll let you go, will you go in?”
Song Hana, who discovered the fun of deviance through the secret incidents that occurred last week, followed her into the public bathroom.
“Really… Are you going to be here…?”
“The door is locked. You have to leave before anyone else comes.”
I stood in front of the urinal, and Song Hana hesitated, unable to open the door.
“Peeking again this time? There’s nothing to cover right now.”
I told a dirty joke to Song Hana, who was looking at the doorknob and at my back alternately.
Even if it was perceived as sexual harassment, I had nothing to say, and the joke I made was a gamble based on probability.
Today, Song Hana followed me to the karaoke bar, and she is conscious of the incident that happened last Thursday.
“No! Don’t steal it…!!”
The gamble paid off.
Song Hana’s voice rose, and her pronunciation became slurred.
Her resting hand lowered the doorknob, and Song Hana put her body into the women-only compartment.

“Song Hana, should you turn up the volume?”
“No…! If you’re done, please stay out…!”
She even played her song for Song Hana, but it’s a shame she’s leaving.
“Huh…?”
“Let’s go buy water.”
“… Taeyang, I asked you to stay out.”
Even when I was greedy and crossed the line, Song Hana did not reject me.
“I have a question, so I wanted to ask.”
Even now, Song Hana’s eyes twinkled as I stood there in the bathroom.
“This is the bathroom…”
There is no need to know exactly what Song Hana felt.
She was anything but displeased, and there was no trace of contempt or disgust in her twinkling eyes.
I knew this because I often received Kim So-yoon’s disdainful gaze, and I crossed the line once more.
“If I ask you to eat dinner together, will you eat it?”
“Yeah, it’s dinner and I talk to the kids…”
“No, you and I, let’s eat alone, no other kids.”
Even though the date request given in the bathroom is not stylish, it is enough to stimulate Song Hana’s desire.
“The two of you…?”
“Uh, you and me, just the two of us, I’ll live.”
Song Hana had no interaction with men because of Lee Kang-hoon.
It was difficult for her to even talk alone, and she couldn’t imagine having lunch or dinner.
Then, I brought Song Hana into her unisex bathroom and asked her out on a date.
“… When are you going?”
It was a golden opportunity for Song Hana, who had been dreaming of her escape, and her soft lips asked about her date schedule.
“Let’s fill the time so that the kids don’t get suspicious.”
“Yeah…”
“Think about the menu. If you don’t think about it, you’ll eat what you want.”
Due to her desire for deviation and the goodwill she had for me, Song Hana accepted her request for a date.
“It’s bothersome if rumors spread, so just say so when you go in.”
After leaving the bathroom and purchasing water, her female classmates informed Song Hana of her precautions in front of her room.
“Yeah, okay.”
Song Hana also nodded her head so as not to let her dinner date be discovered. After finishing the story, the two of us entered the room and immediately laid the groundwork.
“It took so long?”
“When I left, there was a song, so I asked him something.”
“Huh? Did you, like your seniors, ask Hana if she had a boyfriend?”
Female classmates also recognized Song Hana’s beauty, and the questions I asked her were linked to men and women.
“I found out about all that while drinking before. I asked how I was, and I said no.”
“Hey! Did you really ask that?!”
Since my female classmates were cheating on me, I played the role of a man who confessed and then got scolded, and Song Hana also smiled awkwardly.
“Hana, did Taeyang really confess?!”
“Ugh…!”
As Song Hana promised, she only answered yes to my words.
“Ah! Crazy! Hey! Boy, “I wish we could have been friends.” I reserved!”
Taking advantage of the female classmates’ interest in Song Hana, they reserved her song first.
“I wish we could have been friends.” The song’s title caught our attention, and the atmosphere in the room heated up.
“Is it fun?”
“Yeah, I’ll do it because it’s fun!”
“I had fun too.”
An hour passed quickly in the heated atmosphere.
My female classmates, who offered consolation instead of singing, looked pitiful when I told them that I also had fun.
However, I am not the one who needs to be comforted.
“… Song Hana, how could you do that to me?”
“Huh?”
Song Hana accepted my request for a date, and the story about her confessing and then getting dumped is a made-up story.
“I believed… But, I only believed in you!”
“Aram Kim, what was that just now?”
“Kim Taeyang, you stay quiet too! You two are accomplices!”
Kim A-ram and her female classmates, who had been deceived by her made-up story, interrogated Song Ha-na.
Song Hana only repeated the word sorry with a faint smile,
Kim A-ram and her female classmates, tired of interrogating Song Ha-na, changed their target to me.
“Senior Kim So-yoon.”
“Ah… Soyun unni was there.”
Whether I made up Song Ha-na’s story because I liked her disappeared completely when I talked about Kim So-yoon.
“Everyone, be careful.”
“One, don’t walk, take the bus up.”
“Yes, I’ll ride up with the sun. Don’t worry.”
I succeeded in hiding our dinner date, and my four female classmates went down to the subway station.
The only dorm student left next to me was Song Hana,
Our deviation continued even after we left the karaoke bar.
“Does Soyoon like you?”
“She keeps asking me the same thing, so I answered some out of anger, but she seems to like it.”
“Ah… I see…
“Why are you disappointed?”
“No… Why am I disappointed?”
Even though I couldn’t clearly recognize the emotions in the eyes, I definitely recognized the emotions in the voice.
Song Hana was walking next to me, her voice full of regret.
She was certain that she had a romantic interest in me, so I walked to the restaurant I had already looked into.
“Remember how I said that if you don’t decide on the menu, I’ll eat whatever I want?”
“Yes, I did.”
“It’s a delicious place. I’ll eat it and take it home.”
Western restaurants attract more couples and families than other restaurants.
There was a college student couple at the table next to me, and the Western restaurant is a good place to incite Song Hana’s desires.
“Didn’t you get a call from Lee Kang-hoon?”
“Ugh, I’m here.”
“Please show me. What is he sending me in response?”
“It was a request from my parents… If I don’t reply on time, my mom will reach out to me.”
First, it touches on the obsession and interest of Song Hana’s parents who oppressed her.
————–
[Lee Kang-hoon]
– An hour has passed. When are you going to get back in?
– Reply within 10 minutes
————–
“Is it like this even when I’m with girls?”
“Yeah…”
Just reading the messenger Lee Kang-hoon sent took my breath away, and I could even understand why Song Hana dreamed of deviating.
“Say you’re going back after dinner.”
“No. I’ll reply that I’m with female classmates and ask them to send me photos.”
“Only send photos of food.”
After touching on her obsession and interest, he tells her how to help Song Hana rebel.
“Do you want to keep replying to messengers?”
“… No, I don’t like it.”
Song Hana, who had stimulated her desire and wanted to escape her obsession and surveillance, responded to Lee Kang-hoon’s messenger.
————–
– (Photo)
– I’m going home after dinner.
– You can’t take pictures of your friends
– I won’t do anything to hurt my friends because of you.
– I’ll contact you once you enter the dormitory, so don’t contact me anymore
————–
She clearly expressed her dislike for Song Hana.
Even when her phone rang with Lee Kang-hoon’s messenger, she put it in her bag and the corners of her mouth curled up.
“You’re good.”
“Huh…?”
The corners of her mouth, which had gone up, lowered, and Song Hana opened her lips.
“Eat. I have a new fork.”
I held a piece of chuck steak in front of Song Hana’s lips.
“Feed me…? Ugh!”
Song Hana asked an obvious question, and I pressed her moist lips to my steak.
“I’m 20 years old, so I should try eating what men feed me.”
“Yes… Thank you, I’ll eat well…”
Song Hana took her steak and ate it.
Because of Lee Kang-hoon, Song Hana, who had no contact with men, was able to have dinner alone with a man for the first time.
“What are you doing?”
“Taeyang should also eat what the woman gives him, right?”
“You don’t have a timid personality either.”
Song Hana also fed me steak, and the two of us looked like lovers in other people’s eyes.
“Taeyang, I’ll buy dinner next time.”
As we enjoyed dinner like lovers, Song Hana asked me for an after-hours meal first.
“Are you asking me out on a date?”
“Yes!”
There was a fantasy in something that couldn’t be done, and I made Song Hana’s fantasy come true.
“I need to look into movies and cafés.”
“Hee! I’ll find out too!”
She could be the only man who could help her escape, and Song Hana smiled brightly.
“Contact me.”
“Yes, I will reach out to you. Be careful.”
“You have to get in, get in quickly.”
The awkwardness she felt in her classroom disappeared. She smiled brightly without Song Hana avoiding her gaze.
‘You just have to wait for a call.’
On the way back home after seeing Song Hana off, I waited for a messenger to arrive at her cell phone.
“Oh, you called?”
She said that Song Hana came into the dormitory. She was planning on sending a messenger, and she would reply right away, but
On the cell phone, there was a missed call from Kim So-yoon, not Song Ha-na’s messenger.
– Hey, come to my house quickly.
“Okay.”
Only good things can’t always happen to one person. Kim So-yoon urgently asked for help, and I ran to her room.
