The Harmony of Yin and Yang Is Not as It Seems PART 1 (15)
***
Exaggerating slightly, Mo Yeon felt as if the sky had fallen at that moment.
“What are you doing, Mo Yeon?”
“…..”
If not the sky, then his heart or something else – it felt like something had certainly crumbled.
“Mo Yeon… are you running away right now?”
However, Tae Young-won’s soft voice from behind sounded like someone who had witnessed an unbelievable reality. He even went so far as to express admiration.
“….Wow….”
Mo Yeon, who had frozen from the moment he heard his voice, was still facing the front door. He didn’t have the courage to turn around.
Just a few more steps and he could leave this place and return to his own sanctuary, which might not be very warm but at least didn’t have a Tae Young-won with a rod between his legs.
For some reason, he had planned to talk to Tae Young-won again after escaping from his excited state and when he had regained his senses. The risk of being impaled by the rod would have subsided by then.
Thump, thump.
His heart was pounding like never before. It wasn’t from excitement or anything like that, but from a threat to his life.
“You said you’d take responsibility….”
And then his voice was heard again.
As if hearing a creaking sound, Mo Yeon slowly turned around.
There stood Tae Young-won, who had just finished showering.
“…Sunbae.”
Tae Young-won’s expression was surprisingly unremarkable. He didn’t seem to be feeling deep anger; rather, it wasn’t much different from usual.
That made it even more frightening.
“Until just a moment ago, I was willing to forgive all your creepy stalking and deception, and tried to get along well with you, but it seems you don’t feel the same way at all.”
As expected, the content he uttered in a monotone voice was also brutal.
“S-sunbae.”
“I’ve become an irreversible gay trusting only you, how could you do this to me…?”
Gasp.
‘This is bad.’
Indeed, he couldn’t immediately notice because of the expressionless face. It seemed he was angrier than he appeared.
“It’s interesting. It’s new.”
Tae Young-won now spoke with a hint of amusement in his voice.
“I feel like I won’t be able to let my guard down for a moment when I’m with you from now on. Because I never know when you’ll screw me over in a new way. You’re really charming, Mo Yeon. You know that?”
“No….”
His voice trembled involuntarily at the ominous atmosphere.
“Isn’t it a bit early to say you’ve become gay? Honestly, we didn’t even go all the way….”
“I can’t believe you’re this irresponsible, Mo Yeon.”
He covered his mouth with his clenched fist as if in great shock. Then he even held his forehead as if feeling dizzy.
“…I’ve already rubbed dicks with you.”
Mo Yeon unconsciously scratched the back of his head in front of him, who had lowered his head.
“It was my first time with a man….”
“…..”
It was an undeniably awkward situation.
Well, since Tae Young-won had strongly disliked men, it was understandable that he might be experiencing an identity crisis.
Being in this situation made Mo Yeon feel like he was really a terrible scumbag trying to take advantage of Tae Young-won’s first experience and run away.
And it wasn’t just him who sensed this strange yet familiar atmosphere.
“Now I understand… You planned to use me and throw me away from the beginning, right?”
“What?”
Mo Yeon’s eyes widened.
“This is the first time I’ve been treated like this, it really is different.”
It was just a momentary rebellious act because he missed the strength of his yang energy, there was no such grand plan.
“You planned this from the alley to here. Mo Yeon is always used to deceiving and betraying others. And I fell for it again without knowing.”
“No. That’s not it.”
“It’s not?”
While it’s true that his actions had a clear purpose, it was only because of the yang energy, not to trick Tae Young-won.
“…It really isn’t. Honestly.”
“I can’t believe it.”
However, Tae Young-won, who couldn’t know this, narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Mo Yeon.
“Then, sunbae, what do you want from me…?”
Considering his position, it wasn’t hard to understand.
After all, he must have only met women who wanted him until now, so how shocking must Mo Yeon’s actions have been?
At Mo Yeon’s words, Tae Young-won approached with large strides.
Having just finished showering, he only had a towel wrapped around his waist. As he got closer, the fragrant scent of body wash still clinging to his damp skin wafted over.
The threateningly large body hugged Mo Yeon tightly. Mo Yeon squeezed his eyes shut.
“Don’t go.”
Mo Yeon was increasingly realizing how weak he was to Tae Young-won’s touch the more he got involved with him.
“I’ve just barely prepared myself to accept this, how can you leave like this?”
However, Mo Yeon’s entire body was a complete mess. His body, barely covered by hastily put-on clothes, was stained here and there, and between his legs was dirty with both of their semen. As Tae Young-won pulled his body close, he could feel something sticky flowing inside his pants.
His legs felt like they might give out.
Mo Yeon bit his lip at that strange feeling and barely managed to answer.
“…O-okay. I won’t go. I wasn’t really trying to run away.”
There’s no way to escape from this embrace anyway. The arms tightly holding his body were too thick.
“Really?”
“I was just going to go home for a moment to wash up. It’s just upstairs, right?”
He even told a white lie out of desperation. That was the only way he could escape from this embrace.
“Is that true?”
Tae Young-won relaxed his body at Mo Yeon’s answer and faced him. His expression had softened considerably.
“That’s a relief. Then we’re really dating, right?”
“What?”
It was an unbelievable thing to hear.
When he unconsciously asked back loudly, Tae Young-won stared at Mo Yeon quietly. Mo Yeon’s mouth gaped open at that clear and transparent gaze.
Dating, he says. Asking if we’re really dating. When did he ever become lovers with Tae Young-won? Mo Yeon had never agreed to such a thing.
At the same time, Tae Young-won said,
“What’s wrong? You’re acting like you didn’t hear me tell you to take responsibility earlier.”
As if by magic, the memory from just a moment ago came back.
“But if I become gay because of this, you’ll have to take responsibility, okay?”
Mo Yeon’s eyes filled with shock.
“That was you asking to date…!”
“…..”
Tae Young-won’s brow furrowed slightly.
“Was that really what it meant? I answered without knowing that’s what it meant.”
Seeing Tae Young-won’s furrowing brow, Mo Yeon closed his mouth.
It was really strange.
Even though he thought it might all be a ploy to seduce him, and even though he now knew that all the gentle kindness this person showed at school wasn’t entirely true.
Looking at that face, he started to think that maybe he really was shocked by Mo Yeon’s actions just now.
Then was everything he’s saying now sincere? He could hardly bring himself to speak.
“So Mo Yeon was trying to have sex with me without even dating?”
“…..”
“Even though you like me enough to stalk me?”
For one thing, Mo Yeon had never in his life had sex with someone he wasn’t dating, but he thought that’s how Tae Young-won lived. So he had dismissed the talk of taking responsibility as nonsense.
So until they got into bed together today, he had no idea that Tae Young-won had made such a big decision.
Then does that mean he had shaken up Tae Young-won, who had been living quietly, to such an extent?
“Maybe it’s because I grew up in a conservative family, but I’ve never had sex with anyone other than the one person I’ve committed to. I’ve never lived the kind of life where I play around for one night and then switch partners. You’ve heard that the thing I hate most is people without principles, right?”
Even Mo Yeon, who had no friends at school, had heard that countless times. It should be considered the most basic rumor surrounding Tae Young-won. Unlike his appearance, he was clean when it came to women’s issues and hated unprincipled people – that was the widely known rumor about him in the Business Department of Korea University.
“…I’ve heard about it.”
“Then you should know well.”
The claim about going to church was definitely proven to be nonsense, but on the contrary, it was certainly true that he came from a conservative family.
However, whether he really was someone who valued principles was still unproven. Since moving into this officetel, Mo Yeon had seen two of Tae Young-won’s partners. Over a period of about half a year, his partner had changed once.
Mo Yeon couldn’t know whether Tae Young-won had been in very serious relationships with each of them. However, even if that was the case with women, it wouldn’t necessarily apply to him. And there were more reasons why it was difficult to believe Tae Young-won’s words.
“Sunbae, do you really want to date me? Why?”
Because he was a man, and besides that, he was the strangest existence in the school, not matching Tae Young-won at all.
“Of course.”
And Tae Young-won’s subsequent answer was devastating.
“Mo Yeon, if I wasn’t prepared to that extent, I wouldn’t have rubbed dicks with a man.”
“Huh…”
Mo Yeon really, really, really.
He had never imagined that the weight of the words “take responsibility” would be to this extent.
