Chapter 586 – Choice
I knew it. How does Han Ye-ryeong feel about me now?
I fully knew which direction her heart was leaning towards now.
But.
I didn’t believe it. No, I already knew everything, but I just pretended not to know.
‘I wasn’t sure…’
We meet Ye-ryeong Han again. She gets to spend her happy time with her like before.
Will I be able to do that well? We already broke up because of something bad, but maybe we’re breaking up for another reason.
Before I got my powers, I never had a girlfriend.
I dated once as an adult and once in high school.
The breakup I experienced back then was just like that. The reason we broke up was all because of my girlfriend.
But I thought it was my fault that we broke up at that time, so I deliberately stayed away.
I thought it wouldn’t happen. I thought to myself that it would never happen.
They were afraid of something that hadn’t even happened yet, so they didn’t even want to start, let alone approach.
‘What a fucking method.’
Even though I’ve met quite a few women so far, I’m still a coward.
A fool who just relies on his abilities to manipulate women as he pleases.
Still, I thought it was a lot better than the first time, but I was still naked and nothing had changed.
I steel myself and look at Han Ye-ryeong. Conflict is clearly visible in her eyes.
These are the eyes that I tried to avoid on purpose. Eyes wondering if they will connect with me again.
‘I was hoping not to do that…’
I was afraid of our future meeting, and honestly, I hoped that Han Ye-ryeong would choose not to meet me again.
But now I know. That her heart was quite inclined toward meeting me again.
I was able to learn a lot by encountering things I deliberately tried not to see.
Now Han Ye-ryeong is anxious. Is it really okay for you to meet me again?
I wonder if we’ll end up breaking again after suffering similar wounds as before.
It’s all because I didn’t give her faith. I left all the choices up to him, and I was scared, so I just hid behind.
No woman would make a choice for a man who does not give her confidence.
‘But in the current situation, I am forced to make a choice.’
This is not a situation that can be dragged on without making a choice. It is a situation where a choice is unconditionally forced.
In that situation, I was a cowardly idiot who left everything to Han Ye-ryeong and hid.
“Haa…”
I keep hiding the truth with my eyes, but when I face it directly, I can’t help but sigh.
Now I had to make a choice too. This is not a coward who leaves everything to one woman, but a clear choice so that both parties have no regrets.
‘If you say you’re okay with anything, you’re literally kicking the blanket for the rest of your life.’
After the fireworks festival is over, it’s time to make a choice about your future relationship. What would have happened if I had answered that anything was fine?
When I heard an answer that seemed like an idiot just imagining it, I erased those thoughts from my head and faced my heart to make the right choice.
If you ask me if I sincerely want to meet Han Ye-ryeong again, I can now answer with certainty.
‘I want to meet you.’
At first I didn’t think much of it. I thought anything was okay, but not anymore.
I realized this when we met today. I am happy to spend my time with her. Furthermore, I didn’t feel the same way as before, but I still thought I was happy enough.
She is a woman with a different charm than the slaves I have. No, it has charm that can be said to be unrivaled.
He looks very cold on the outside, but when you meet him in person, you realize that he is more charming than you think.
Her face is said to be the most beautiful of all slaves, and her body is not inferior at all.
‘That’s not all.’
The time to judge everything only by appearance is over. I like spending time with Han Ye-ryeong.
If she loves someone, she doesn’t hide it at all, but shows it all and makes it clear that she is loved.
You may feel the same way about other slaves and girlfriends, but Han Ye-ryeong was special.
The girl I approached for the first time and told her I wanted to date her.
A woman who I fell in love with at first sight and somehow wanted to make her my woman.
That was a woman named Han Ye-ryeong. When she thinks about the past, she doesn’t want to break up even more.
I thought it was nothing since we were separated for half a year, but I became even more greedy.
‘Okay, I’ve decided.’
I want to start over with her. She will no longer hide because she is afraid of what will happen.
No matter what happens, give it a try and if it doesn’t work, find a way back.
The end of not doing anything because you’re scared of something that hasn’t happened.
With that in mind, I continued to drive quietly as we decided on our options.
————————
Around the time when Lee Jin-seok was facing his own heart.
‘There’s not much left now…’
Han Ye-ryeong in his vehicle was now contemplating her final choice.
Today was the first day I felt happy for the first time in a long time.
After breaking up with Lee Jin-seok, there was a lot of talk at school, and many men approached me because I had already dated him once.
I was bored. I didn’t want to go to school. The joy of life just disappeared.
‘All that was left were my friends…’
Her only comfort was her friends, so how surprised was it to hear that she voluntarily became Lee Jin-seok’s slave?
I was still shocked and said harsh things because nothing had changed, but now I understand.
He said a lot had changed from before, and the proof was that he hadn’t done anything during our time together.
If it had been before, he would have been impatient and was waiting for an opportunity to go to a motel or hotel.
He was always like that while we were dating, and because of his extremely high sex drive, he took advantage of his abilities and cheated on me, so we broke up.
‘It’s changed a lot.’
But what about now, he hasn’t had any physical contact since signing the contract.
Even though he came up next to me to test it out, he never came up and touched me first.
In Han Ye-ryeong’s mind, it was a huge improvement that Lee Jin-seok, who was more faithful to his instincts than anyone else, did not touch anything.
‘And that’s the problem.’
I like that she doesn’t make physical contact unless she’s given permission.
But that was another problem. Since he doesn’t touch himself at all, he can’t be sure what his feelings are.
We’re going to have to tell each other about our choices soon, but I’m not sure because there’s nothing to show.
What would happen if I said I wanted to meet again, and he said he didn’t want to meet again?
Not only was I very embarrassed, but I felt like the loss of my heart was quite significant.
This side hasn’t forgotten yet, so I wanted to see them again, but what if the other side says that’s not the case at all.
So I hesitate. Do you protect your pride by saying you will never see each other again, or do you say you will meet again whenever you feel like it?
‘What if we meet again?’
Han Ye-ryeong’s heart was already inclined towards meeting again.
It was because I was really happy spending time with Lee Jin-seok for the first time in a long time.
I remember him always smiling brightly. I remember him taking the lead in everything.
Even though we hadn’t had sex yet, which is his favorite thing, he was very happy just spending time together.
‘If… If you go that far…’
She could be sure that she would mix her body with him before confirming her heart.
I am the one who will beg to meet again without even thinking about anything else.
Be cautious. Because now we might not be able to see each other anymore.
——————————–
“Arrived.”
“Is this where the fireworks festival is held?”
“Yes, here.”
“But there’s nothing here…?”
The place I drove to was a park with a clear view of downtown Seoul.
There are no objects around, so you can see the sky and buildings clearly.
She deliberately came here because Hayoung Yoo said it was the best place to see fireworks.
“Just wait a little while, and you’ll find out why you came here.”
“I’m worried that it might be too far away to be seen…”
“You don’t have to worry.”
I checked the time while looking at Han Ye-ryeong, who still couldn’t believe why I came here.
‘In 3 minutes.’
We arrived a little earlier than expected, so we laid out a mat underneath and prepared everything, so we had 3 minutes left.
Soon, firecrackers will rise from the ground and brighten the sky of Seoul.
I didn’t buy a lot of fireworks because they were so expensive, but it was enough to enjoy it.
When you keep thinking like that and waiting for time to pass.
-Beep!!
With the sound of a whistleblowing, green fireworks jumped into the sky.
-Pow!
“Wow…”
“You’re prettier than I thought.”
The green fireworks rose to the sky in the form of a lump and soon exploded, forming a beautiful flower shape.
To be honest, I didn’t think fireworks festivals would be that great because there were so many people, but watching it from such a quiet place made it more enjoyable than I thought.
‘The atmosphere is really nice.’
Starting with green fireworks, various colorful fireworks float in the sky.
The sight of them each taking their own positions and showing off their beautiful forms was so pretty that I thought it was enchanting.
“Oppa, I can see it very well from here.”
“Well, I didn’t know I could look this good either.”
“It’s so pretty…”
“I hope we can see each other again next time.”
“Huh…?”
-Pow!
We looked at each other blankly at the fireworks exploding in the sky, then quietly spoke.
Now that I have made up my mind, I need to show faith in order to be chosen in the direction I want.
Trust me, and you can make the same choice. I am thinking the same thing as you. I hope you choose to be with me.
Anything is fine. As long as I had faith in how she accepted the meaning, everything was fine.
‘You were such an asshole.’
I’ve been like an asshole the whole time I’ve been with you today, so shouldn’t I fix it now?
So, when she spoke just enough to be heard, Han Ye-ryeong looked dumbfounded.
‘What did I just hear…?’
The fireworks were so beautiful that I was enjoying it for a moment, forgetting that there was a very important choice to be made.
All of her awkwardness seemed to have disappeared, and while they were chatting comfortably and enjoying this time, Han Ye-ryeong couldn’t help but believe her ears when Lee Jin-seok said something.
-I hope we can see each other again next time.
I promised the following. And it goes so far as to say that we are not alone, but together.
After hearing those words, Han Ye-ryeong became frozen for a moment. Because she didn’t think she heard correctly.
‘Is it really true that it came from her brother’s mouth?’
She couldn’t believe Lee Jin-seok’s words, to the point where she thought she was hallucinating.
She had never shown confidence in all the time we had spent together, so I couldn’t believe that she was showing it at the end.
However.
Han Ye-ryeong, who looked at Lee Jin-seok’s face, could tell. She said it wasn’t like an auditory hallucination, but that she came directly from his mouth.
My brother’s head is lowered, and his face is slightly resting on his knees, as if he is embarrassed.
I thought it was cute that he lowered his head as if he hadn’t said anything.
‘Uh… What was I thinking…?’
I saw him and thought he was cute. Han Ye-ryeong, who noticed that, also decided to admit her feelings.
“I too… I wish we could see each other again…”
“Huh…?”
She screamed. And then she realized it. Why did my brother bow his head like that?
‘I’m so embarrassed…!’
I’m so embarrassed. I don’t have the courage to raise my head and make proper eye contact with him.
The two, who revealed their feelings to each other, deliberately looked at the fireworks quietly so as not to face each other.
