chapter 50
8. improvement!
Honestly, one word was enough to bring Park Jin-soo.
Because he was the kind of kid who would roll his eyes and follow me if I asked him if he wanted to have a drink with me.
But this time, I was thinking of simply eating food and parting ways.
So I had no choice but to lay the ground rice more carefully.
I couldn’t help it because I was the type of person who would fall for it quickly if I thought I wasn’t interested in it.
Choi Il-hyun or Park Hyun-ah, well, if I contact you, they will come.
But unlike Park Jin-soo, it was the first time meeting Kyung-hee.
Park Jin-soo was essential to get rid of the awkward atmosphere with each other.
“So, you cleaned the officetel’s yard. You mean you’re thinking of cooking in that yard?”
“Yeah. I’m thinking of inviting the other kids to eat together.”
“Ahh.”
Park Jin-soo nodded slowly.
Then he asked me what kind of dish I was going to cook.
Can you tell me that much as a friend?
Seeing that he quietly asked for it, it seemed like he was trying to brag to the people around him.
They’re going to say that they have a friend like me and get this and that.
But first, there was something to be corrected.
“I don’t cook. My girlfriend.”
“Is your girlfriend?”
“Yeah. Why. Did you think I would do it this time too?”
“Huh? Uh. If anything happened, you did all the cooking.”
Park Jin-soo nodded more slowly.
I could see why.
I was going to unwind at a drinking party, but since someone I’m relatively less close with is doing the cooking, I’m being cautious.
It must be a little regretful that you can only solve the story after eating.
Fortunately, they didn’t seem to be concerned about the taste or quality of the food.
I think I would have been a little disappointed if he had appeared as if he didn’t trust Kyung-hee.
“You can talk about it if you want to brag. You like that. Secretly showing off your friendship.”
“Ahahahaha, I heard you.”
“I plan to invite Ilhyun and Hyuna as well, so keep that in mind.”
“Oh, is it smaller than I thought?”
“It’s an officetel, so how many times can I call it?”
“Well, it is. So…”
“Don’t drink.”
“It sucks.”
Park Jin-soo put on a sad expression.
Still, it didn’t really matter, and we talked for a while after that.
After talking for a few more minutes, we parted ways.
When I entered the house, Kyung-hee was organizing the ingredients and putting them in the refrigerator.
I wanted to sort things out for so long, but it seemed like they were sorting ingredients by expiration date.
Seeing her wearing an apron and even a chef’s hat on her head made me laugh.
“why.”
“No. Because it’s cute.”
“Yeah. I’m kind of cute.”
Kyunghee pushed the container of vegetables in and closed the refrigerator door.
Then, while looking at the expiration date, he pointed to the tomato sauce and said.
“Let’s eat this today.”
“Why. Is it past the expiration date?”
“No, it’s not long. If you want to buy a new one, you have to eat it.”
“yes.”
“And give me that too. I’ll sort it out.”
“Wouldn’t that be hard?”
“Okay. Lend me your knee when you’re done.”
Kyunghee smiled.
Seeing her doing that made me feel like a newly married wife.
Even though they had only been dating for a few weeks at most, the feeling that they were more than lovers and less than a couple was strong.
It was odd to see them become so close in such a short period of time.
It’s love, so I don’t have any complaints.
“It’s Kyunghee.”
“yes?”
“Do you remember where you left the coupling?”
“……uh?”
Kyunghee opened her mouth blankly.
Then, after a while, he realized what I meant and smiled brightly.
Kyeong-hee, who almost fell while moving frantically, headed for the living room.
He said while bringing a small box.
“Here it is.”
“ah.”
To be honest, I thought I would only bring a coupling.
So, I didn’t expect to bring a couple rings in a new ring box like this.
In addition, the management was not careless, and when I opened the box, I saw a shiny coupling.
Kyunghee stayed still for a while, then smiled shyly.
“Siwoo, can you put me in?”
“There’s nothing I can’t do.”
“Well, then can I join you?”
“yes.”
It was only covered by the hat, but it felt like my ears would be flapping at high speed by now.
That’s how much Kyeong-hee liked it so much.
I was so happy that my hair grew incredibly long and I could see arms and legs with black hair.
The cook’s hat could not stand it and fell off, so he said everything.
Kyeong-hee, who had been standing still and calming down her emotions a little, smiled and walked towards me.
Originally, it was an incredibly familiar scene.
It was because Kyung-hee often looked like that whenever he felt stuffy.
However, as much as now, an unknown anxiety was creeping in.
But that anxiety didn’t last long.
And it wouldn’t have been that important.
Because, now, Kyunghee has no reason to obsess over me.
Also, Kyung Hee believes in me.
Now that I have cleared away all doubts, I had to trust Kyunghee.
“Sorry, Siwoo. I’m a little happy. I can’t control this.”
“it’s okay.”
“Uh…”
Kyeong-hee calmed down and changed her appearance into a human arm.
He grabbed Kyunghee, who was staggering because her leg had changed again, and put the coupling on her finger.
Kyunghee laughed and put the coupling on my hand as well.
Then he hugged me tightly and turned me around.
He was so happy that his emotions were not in control.
Because he pushed me so slowly, he pushed me at first.
It’s probably meant to lean against the wall and kiss her.
But, I didn’t feel my back hit the wall.
I wanted to tell him where he was going, but Kyung-hee was cunning.
Because when I came to my senses while kissing, I was lying on the bed.
Kyung-hee’s eyes turned sinister as if she was going to take the next step today.
I could see how much he had endured because he slowly reached into his clothes.
I don’t do this because I’m dizzy.
Still, it didn’t work, so I blocked Kyunghee’s hand with my hand.
“……It’s lethal.”
It was the first word Kyeong-hee uttered as soon as she opened her mouth.
Before I could ask what was mean, Kyunghee buried her face in my chest.
Then he started to grumble.
We know that the social situation we are in is not right.
I know you are cautious because you are not ready.
I wonder if it won’t happen just once.
I don’t know if I’d rather go in alone, but Siwoo, I can see that you also implicitly endure it.
Then, why don’t you just close your eyes and eat the table?
He continued to grumble and hugged me.
“upset?”
“I’m not pissed off.”
“I’m pissed off.”
“……I’m not angry.”
Kyunghee grumbled.
Then he asked me to kiss him again, so I kissed him.
For a while, I was holding her while thinking of comforting her, but Kyung-hee, who was in my arms, stood up and said,
“I don’t think I added any meat.”
“Didn’t you put everything in?”
“Even if it’s not that, I need to organize other ingredients.”
“Okay.”
“But, Siwoo.”
“yes?”
“Where did my hat go…?”
Kyunghee cried.
It’s only been a day since I actually wrote it, but it’s a hat that I secretly cherish.
It seemed like it would be nearby anyway, and it really was.
When I put the hat that had fallen in the living room on the table, Kyung-hee smiled brightly and asked if she had found it.
After organizing all the ingredients, I sat down at the table for a while and drank cider with ice.
But suddenly the doorbell rang.
“what.”
I was embarrassed, but Kyung-hee acted like she was used to it, as if it happened often.
Soon after, an agent came in.
He greeted me kindly and extended his hand, but honestly, I was confused about who it was.
Agent Park Chan-ho and Park Tae-ho both wore short sports cuts and sunglasses.
But I could see and notice the wrinkles.
“Agent Park Tae-ho?”
“Oh? You’re not confused.”
“No, I’ve never been confused. hahahaha… By the way, what’s going on?”
“There is a meeting for mutants at the government level. Since the issue is an issue, I’m here to hear your opinions.”
“ah……”
For once I thought I’d be fine.
I would respect Kyunghee’s opinion, but I was thinking about going.
Because Kyunghee is also a mutant.
It could be an opportunity to know and be considerate of the inconveniences and things of the mutants.
Besides that, you can feel something similar to Kyunghee’s sense of belonging.
It is Kyunghee who did not refer to herself as a woman at first, but as a monster.
As such, it seemed that he would worry a lot about his identity.
If I meet other people who share the same scars, I wonder if it will be another opportunity for development.
I was thinking but…….
“Mister. I’m sorry, but I don’t like it.”
“Is that so…”
“Yes. Do I really need to go… I wondered.”
Kyunghee reacted quite harshly.
It was something I had never shown before.
It was completely different from Kyung-hee, who was soft when talking to other people.
It was because I could see that they had completely put an iron wall on them and eliminated any room for negotiations.
Agent Park Tae-ho seemed to be trying to convince him a little more, but Kyung-hee continued to respond coldly.
Inevitably, Agent Park Tae-ho stepped back.
Kyung-hee looked at the front door the agent had left and hugged me while crying.
“Isn’t that a bit harsh? You can just say you don’t want to go.”
“…Siwoo. Rabbits are timid animals. That’s why I can’t help it.”
“still.”
“………..I don’t know.”
Kyung-hee, who had been crying for a while, smiled brightly and hugged me.
However, Kyunghee’s ears were down.
