chapter 30
#30. Do you like me?
Choi Inwook didn’t come back for a while.
I and Yeji, who had an empty front seat, drank together.
“No. Yena Are there many men better than Inwook?”
“So. I think you’re misunderstood.”
My sister tried to explain to me how many men there are in the world.
“Your sister knows your heart~”
My sister lifted her glass toward me.
To be honest, I don’t drink that well. I don’t like it though.
It went well today.
Perhaps it’s that person’s fault.
I bumped into Yeji unnie and poured the soju into my mouth.
Write…
If I drink one or two more drinks here, I think the film will be breathtaking.
Tae-soo’s older brother came to play for a while with the other seniors and sat down in an empty seat in front of us.
“What is it? Where did Inwook Choi go?”
“Sihwa-san said he came to sleep.”
My sister answered.
“Yes? Surprisingly, Shihwa-san had an image that seemed to drink well.”
The manager refilled our empty glasses and started talking nonsense to me.
“Hey. Yena are you okay. It’s okay not to be shy about losing to Sihwa.”
“Have you never lost? Why are you making me a loser?”
“That’s it…”
He was the one who kept his laughter behind his tail.
Ha… Really… These people.
“Really. Don’t do that. Everyone. It’s not what the seniors think.”
I don’t want something like MT to come.
If it wasn’t for Tae-soo’s brother’s circumstances, he really didn’t want to come.
Why do I have to come all the way here and feel these emotions?
When I talked in a serious way, the seniors said they were sorry and changed the topic and started talking to each other.
“Come on. Survivors!”
The manager suddenly jumped up from his seat.
“Gentlemen! The last course of MT remains today!”
…I think there are about 5 people alive right now, but they scream so loudly.
The seniors also seemed to be quite drunk.
“It’s Barooh Bonfire Time aaaaah”
“Yeah eh~”
The responses were good as everyone still likes to make a bonfire.
“Come on. Then a being like Prometheus who will give us fire! Choi In-wook… Lee still hasn’t arrived.”
I wish I had eaten that much during the day.
You don’t have to have a real conscience. Seniors.
“I can’t help it. Let’s do it together first! Everyone rush out!”
The seniors crumpled up their shoes one by one at the words of the manager and went outside.
I slowly got up from my seat and tried to go outside.
This feeling of slightly blunted balance and slowed reaction speed were telling me that I wasn’t normal.
Drunk. Me.
I went to a corner opposite to the direction people were rushing in and took out a cigarette.
Tak. Widely.
I.C. Why isn’t the lighter listening like this?
I kept trying and it didn’t work, so I was annoyed when I heard someone approaching me from behind.
“I’ll do it for you.”
Choi Inwook naturally took the lighter in my hand and lit it.
It was normal to say thank you, but I was grumpy for nothing, so I tickled him.
“What is it? Didn’t you go to sleep with him?”
“No. Sihwa is always a friend. And Sihwa’s alcohol is very weak.”
Do you even look at your friends with such deep eyes these days?
I took a deep breath and then exhaled.
“Go and warm the fire. Why did you come.”
The dark night.
In the night sky, the stars that seemed to pour out were illuminating us.
Taesu’s older brother and his seniors were so happy that they succeeded in making a fire, they circled around the fire like a primitive people.
It was something I thought about in my previous life, but it was a club that I would never have joined if it wasn’t for my love for the real monster painting.
“If you smoke alone, you feel lonely.”
“What does a person who doesn’t smoke know what?”
It’s me who always talks harshly.
Choi In-wook is taller than me. What a big dog
I don’t even know what I think of myself.
Why do you take care of me every day? Speak up
I’m really annoyed.
I’m annoyed.
Does Choi In-wook know how I feel?
I turned my head to look at his side.
He looked up at the sky and spoke to me.
“Wow! Yena look at the stars really a lot Is not it!”
I can’t see a single thing like a star.
In my eyes, all I could see was the image of him approaching me with hysteria.
Maybe you…
“Hey, Inwook Choi.”
“Huh?”
“Do you like me?”
…What did I just say?
Ah. I thought I’d drink in moderation.
Without filtering, the words that ran through my head just popped out.
Choi In-wook’s pupils dilated for a while, then returned to normal.
“…I like it.”
…Are you crazy?
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
No. But do you really like me? Why not? Why?
Harin Yoon and I get along just fine. Today, even Yoo Shi-hwa is brought to the front of my eyes.
Ah… What should I answer…?
It felt like the circuit of thought had stopped.
However, you have to listen to Korean until the end.
“Of course as a friend.”
I was ashamed of myself for fluttering for no reason.
You’re just trying to ruin my mood today. You.
But at his next words, I couldn’t spit out the swear words I had prepared.
“Jenna. You.”
He made eye contact with me.
“I think you are a good person.”
“Of course, there are times when I’m cold because I don’t like it.”
“I know.”
“Actually, I know that you are taking care of me here and there.”
“I will tell you about the monsters with all my heart.”
“You talk as if you don’t want to hear it, but they give me advice on my concerns.”
“And, above all, when you are painting.”
“I think it’s cool to focus on one area you like and focus on it.”
What is it? That is.
Why are you answering my stupid question so seriously?
I’d rather just say that I like you as a friend.
Then it would have been over with a bang on the head.
I didn’t know how to respond to his very serious words.
And the first feeling that blooms…
I’m sorry.
Things in a previous life were the things of a previous life.
I thought maybe I was hurting him who didn’t know anything.
I really hate it, but I’m dying…
I drank the last sip of the last cigarette I had left.
“What do you say?”
Suddenly and politely, I apologized to him for saying I was sorry, but in the end, I responded to him in a manner that was no different than usual.
I stomped the cigarette on the floor, turned my back, and said to him.
“…Choi Inwook.”
“Huh?”
“Let’s go see the Buddhist temple.”
After those words, I headed towards the bonfire where the seniors were chatting and chatting.
Choi In-wook’s shadow cast in front of me felt particularly large.
* *
Uh… My head hurts.
After putting Sihwa to sleep, we continued to drink in front of the bonfire.
What kind of person drinks so well?
The manager was a person who didn’t mind at all calling him a drunkard.
I thought I drank well at the freshman reception, but it was a monster itself.
I didn’t think I was the type of person who couldn’t drink…
I laughed out loud at the ridiculous amount of alcohol.
I got up scratching my frizzy hair and went outside.
It was a time when fresh air was needed.
I left the dormitory and went out to the yard, and I saw a person stretching before me.
“Choi Inwook.”
Sihwa was very neat because he slept early.
“Oh. Yes. It’s Sihwa Did you sleep well yesterday?”
“…Yes.”
Sihwa nodded her head.
Does Sihwa know that she drank far beyond her alcohol consumption yesterday?
The drinking amount of Sihwa in his previous life is half a can of beer. Two or three glasses of soju were the limit.
And even though it was slightly revealed yesterday, her injection…
It was aegyo.
But very few people knew about her injection.
It was only after she started dating that she knew what her injection was.
Because Sihwa really hated drinking parties.
There were a number of reasons, but to sum up, she doesn’t like crowded, noisy places.
The next level was that alcohol was bad for health.
“Choi Inwook.”
Sihwa has come close to me.
“Did I not do anything strange?”
It was the tone of her that wanted to be confirmed.
“Yes. Absolutely.”
Except for the fact that he pulled my arm while lying on the bed to sleep with me.
“I’m glad.”
At that moment, Sihwa breathed a sigh of relief.
She seemed to be worried that she might have made a mistake.
I couldn’t tell her the truth.
“I think other people need to wake up soon.”
It seemed that we were the only sane people left, even though we didn’t have enough time left until we left the dorm.
“I’ll go to the car for a while. I’m going in first and waking you up.”
Sihwa left her words and walked towards her parking lot.
Coming back to the dorm, I took a deep breath.
Inside the dorm that has become a mess.
However, Yeji noona’s help was desperately needed to wake these people up.
After all, the manager knew all too well that I was a person who wouldn’t even wake me up.
The women shared a separate room, but first tried knocking.
Tick tock.
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
No reply was heard.
Do I even have to wake up?
I slowly opened the door and entered the room.
I immediately tried to wake Yeji’s sister, but I stood still for a moment and looked at Jena lying on the other side of her.
A single ray of sunlight was shining on Jena, who was sleeping soundly.
A small sound of breathing is heard.
[Do you like me?]
I remembered her asking me with her reminded face red as if drunk.
I slowly got down on her knees and touched her cheek as if I couldn’t reach it.
Hayena. I thought I knew you well.
I don’t know what you’re thinking right now.
“What are you doing now?”
The place where I looked back…
Sihwa with a cold expression was holding the doorknob.
