Chapter 24: CHP 24: They say you're a genius in physics
Days are passing like fireworks.
Day 2 after waxing...
The area around my balls, which was a bit fiery at first, now feels like nothing.
But the left side of my groin, which I ripped the hair out of without oil...
That still feels like a fucking inferno.
If I accidentally brush against it while walking, I can't help but yelp, "Fuck!"
"Huh..."
I want to make that bitch pay for this.
Honestly, until then, I thought I might have reached out for nothing...
But within a day, I felt like it was a good decision. Who gives a fuck about a shitty future when the hot sister is the best?
Just thinking about all the things we could do together already makes my heart race.
...Damn. This chick, Juha, must have turned my brain into my dick.
Juha: Over 3 million won
Juha: I'll send 1.25 million won
...
This bitch is pulling out aegyo she never used before.
Money really changes people. Money makes even a delinquent act all cutesy...
That's why they say make a lot of money.
Hot Trending the video Ranks 3rd.
I'm getting fucking anxious...
It's doing way too well for no damn reason, and it's making me really anxious...
Not just from video purchases, but monthly subscribers are increasing too. And we haven't even uploaded many videos yet..
The world is full of rich fuckers. Now I get why they rake in dough with OnlyFans. There are rich bastards out there spending like there's no tomorrow.
"Sigh."
Well, money's good, right? What's good is good, isn't it?
But I'm worried about what to shoot for the next video.
But we should shoot something nice while the momentum is hot, shouldn't we?
Fuck that! Why am I even worrying about this? It's not like I want to do this!
'Smack.'
I slapped my cheek hard.
This isn't my business... Whether it does well or not, I'm just a worker.
Of course, it would be nice if it did well...
'Ah...'
Suddenly, I thought of the sister.
Now I realize it's not just about me and Juha anymore.
Some editing bonuses would go to the sister too.
The more money I make, the better her mood will get.
Thinking about that, I felt a bit strange.
Before, I just thought having enough for myself was good enough...
But now, with more money, I can make someone else feel better.
To help the sister get her normal life, I'd need at least 100 million won... Hmm... Is this what they mean when they say money is never enough?
To make people around me happy, no matter how much I earn, it's never enough.
Sigh.
I should think about this more seriously.
But knowing Juha, she'll probably shoot whatever the fuck she wants for the next video.
I bet it'll be another video to torment me. I'm already fucking scared...
...
Department Club
At the front of the clubroom.
I stopped in front of the iron door.
I have to talk about how we'll handle the festival with my classmates. There's a lot to do.
I wonder if anyone's here...
Creak.
"Hi, hello."
"Oh, yeah."
When I opened the door, it was full of senior girls.
They were lounging on chairs and sofas, messing with their phones.
What the fuck, where are all the guys?
Glance.
The senior girls glanced at me and then looked away.
I'm not some fucking good-looking guy or an active member, so no reason for them to give a shit...
"Hmm..."
I hesitated, put down my bag, and sat in a corner chair.
Fuck, it's suffocating...
With no senior guys around, the atmosphere feels weird...
Ever since the senior guys fought among themselves, things haven't recovered.
About 30% of the guys are pissed off and not coming to the clubroom, so it feels like there are way more girls now.
I don't know how long this cold atmosphere will last. I hope they make up soon so I don't have to go to the soccer tournament.
"..."
"..."
Fuck, it's too cold in here.
I wiped my face for no reason.
Well, I heard my reputation among the girls isn't that great.
Before, I was just a nobody, a dark templar with zero presence...
But when they heard I was taking Kim Myung-jun to a blind date with gals from different departments, the girls got really pissed off.
Kim Myung-jun is one of the few good-looking guys in our year, with no rough edges, and he dresses well, like a man of everyone's dreams...
And I was trying to sell that valuable asset to another department? I was just asking for trouble.
And it's not just Kim Myung-jun. There's interest in one or two other good-looking guys too, so I'm fucking selling them out.
From the girls' perspective, it's a fucking disaster.
A total nerd like me suddenly organizing a blind date, and taking two good-looking guys? They must be fucking pissed...
And there's no guarantee this will be the last time. If it goes well, blind dates will continue... A constant export of good-looking guys.
But it's also unfair. Then they should've made their move first! Why the fuck are they pointing fingers at me...
Murmur, murmur.
I was murmuring to myself, waiting for Kim Myung-jun and Ju Ye-jin.
At least if some senior guys showed up, it would feel less suffocating...
"Fuck."
"Ah."
Suddenly, the room was filled with curses.
What the fuck is going on? I clasped my hands nervously. Did I do something wrong?
"Ah, the fucking Wi-Fi is acting up again."
"Ah!!"
Looks like the router's fucked...
The already cold atmosphere got even worse... I'm scared as fuck... Especially since these girls remind me of the bullies from high school...
"Fuck, I'm almost out of data."
Complaints burst out.
One or two girls were hitting the router, trying to revive it with CPR. Like hitting the machine would bring it back to life...
I wanted to help, but I just sat there quietly. Better not to stick my nose in and fuck things up more...
"Damn."
I made eye contact with a senior lying on the sofa.
She looked at me with slightly narrowed eyes.
I quickly averted my gaze. Why, why are you looking at me? I didn't do anything!
"Hey."
"Yes?"
"Come here."
"Yes... Yes, sir."
I quickly moved in front of the senior.
She yawned, leaning her arm on the sofa.
She called me over but didn't say anything.
...Ah.
She's that senior.
The one who has the hots for Kim Myung-jun.
Another senior told me last time.
She might have a thing for you. She might act a bit bitchy, but just understand, he said.
Why is she acting like this when I'm not even dating Kim Myung-jun... Anyone would think I confessed to him and we're dating...
"When's the blind date?"
"Ah... It's not set yet."
"So, roughly when?"
"About within three weeks..."
The senior clicked her tongue, furrowing her brows.
She's really acting up, she muttered.
I felt intimidated without knowing why.
The gaze of other girls made me even more intimidated.
I felt like I was being scolded...
"Give me your phone."
"Pardon?"
"Give me your fucking phone."
Why my phone...
I hesitantly handed over my phone to the senior.
She took it, lay back down, and wiggled her feet.
"I'm out of data, can I borrow it for a bit? I was DMing someone."
"Ah... Sure..."
"Got a problem with that?"
"No."
She waved me away as if to say, go on.
I bit my lip and moved back to the corner.
I could hear the other senior girls chuckling.
Hey, why are you picking on him? Shut the fuck up, someone whispered.
'Fuck...'
I felt like crying.
Even if I'm not involved in department activities, it's not good to be disliked.
Sitting in the chair, I prayed for Kim Myung-jun or Ju Ye-jin to arrive soon.
Tock, tock, tock.
I glanced at my phone over the chair.
From the screen, it looked like she was just playing some stupid game.
But I was worried she might open something else.
There aren't any embarrassing photos in my gallery... I take selfies sometimes, but...
Google was just open to game-related pages, right? I couldn't erase the browsing history...
'Ah.'
The only thing that might be a problem is KakaoTalk...
The conversation with Juha about OnlyFans...
What if she goes into my KakaoTalk?
'Fuck...'
I hadn't had my phone snatched in a while, so I let my guard down...
In high school, I was careful about everything...!
Bullies start with their own business but eventually sneak into your KakaoTalk and gallery...
I was trembling, watching the senior's every move.
Come to think of it, there's also the browsing history for OnlyFans...
She wouldn't check that, would she? Only a psycho would do that.
If she clicks on that, I'm fucking done...
'Ah, no.'
Maybe it's not the end.
I can just deny it.
What? That's not mine. What's with the OnlyFans talk with Juha? Oh, we were talking about uploading funny videos. Hahaha!
Even if they think it's bullshit, so what. It's not like I'm going to be an active member anyway...
Fuck.
Tears were welling up. Why does this shit continue even in college... I want to escape being the bread shuttle...
Slide.
The senior, who had been using my phone for a while, got up and looked at me.
...Did, did she see it? Did she see it?
"I'm going to the bathroom. I'll give it back when I come back."
"...Okay..."
I felt utterly defeated.
I couldn't say, "No, you need to give it back now." That would make me look even more suspicious... I had no choice but to let her keep it and hope nothing happens...
Clunk.
She left with my phone.
I felt like crying. I felt like I was going to cry. Fuck... If I cry here, it'll be so fucking embarrassing... Why do I feel so wronged?
"Uggghhh, I'm fucking hungry."
"Quick lunch, quick lunch! What's for lunch today?"
Not long after the senior left, a bunch of senior guys came in.
Did they go for a smoke or something? I stood up, relieved.
"Oh, hello, seniors!"
"Wow, nice spirit, Jun-young."
"When did you get here, Jun-young?"
It's Joon-hyung...
But their warm welcome made me forget the feeling of being wronged.
I almost burst into tears, but thankfully, I didn't...
"What the fuck, why isn't the Wi-Fi working?"
"It cut out earlier."
"I'll fix it."
The seniors fiddled around, and the light came back on.
It's- it's fixed. I'll get my phone back now.
"Yawn."
After a while, the senior who took my phone returned.
She still had my phone in one hand.
"Hey, move over, fuck."
She forced a senior off the sofa and lay down again.
Tap, tap, tap. My phone...
"Huh? Hey, isn't that your phone? What's that phone?"
"This? It's his. I borrowed it because the Wi-Fi was down."
"The Wi-Fi's fixed, dumbass. Use yours."
"Fuck you."
...Fuck.
When they mentioned it was my phone, the senior guys looked at me. Really? I nodded, then quickly waved my hands. Just let her use it.
If the seniors stepped in and said, "Give it back, idiot," it might make her hate me even more...
"Why the fuck are you using his phone? How much data do you need?"
"Mind your own business, fuck."
Just... don't stir shit. Just let her return it quietly later...
It's making me more nervous. I looked around at everyone. Tsk, the senior guys.
"Well, if Jun-hyung says it's okay..."
"Hello, seniors!"
"Oh, our freshmen."
Luckily, my classmates and Kim Myung-jun soon arrived.
The clubroom was getting crowded...
I glanced at Kim Myung-jun.
Kim Myung-jun nodded at me. Ah, right, we were supposed to talk about the festival. It's too noisy here; let's go outside.
"Senior. I'll go out with Joon-hyung to discuss the festival."
"Oh? Yeah, sure."
The senior girls' gazes turned to Kim Myung-jun.
...The interest is obvious. She really does have a thing for him.
I hesitated for a moment, then gathered my courage and approached the senior.
"Senior... I need to go out, can I have my phone back?"
"Huh? Oh, sure."
The senior handed back my phone as if it was no big deal. If the senior guys weren't here, would she have made a scene?
Her expression wasn't as sour as I expected. I took my phone and followed Kim Myung-jun.
Maybe she didn't see anything...
