Sejin is showing a maternal side to Siwoo.

Siwoo felt very fond of Sejin, but at the same time, a sadistic instinct seemed to surge within him.

“Okay, I got it! But are you sure it’s okay?”

Siwoo answered that and simultaneously asked Sejin, as if to confirm something.

“What?”

Sejin looked at Siwoo, who suddenly asked if she was okay, with a puzzled expression and reacted as if asking back.

As soon as Siwoo saw Sejin’s puzzled reaction, he immediately turned around and flung open the front door.

Sejin quickly covered her body with her arms, as if surprised by the sudden opening of the front door.

“I think we should ventilate a little, so it would be good to leave the front door slightly open! Would this be okay?”

Siwoo left the door ambiguously open, lowered the door stopper to fix the door, and then asked her in a teasing tone.

Although the inside was not visible while passing through the hallway, it was an interval where one could check the inside as much as possible, even by slightly sticking one’s face in.

“Uh? Uh… okay…”

Sejin replied absentmindedly, unable to hide her genuinely embarrassed expression.

Siwoo smiled, seemingly very pleased with Sejin’s reaction.

“Then I’ll really go now! I’ll contact you~ Reply right away, got it?”

Siwoo said goodbye with a smile and slipped out through the open door.

**

The cool air of the officetel hallway greeted Siwoo.

Siwoo approached the elevator and pressed the down button.

Looking back slightly, Sejin’s front door was visible.

Imagining the shame and embarrassment she must be feeling now, Siwoo’s penis throbbed as if it would burst through his clothes.

Before long, the officetel elevator arrived at the floor where Siwoo was.

The elevator door opened, and Siwoo stepped back into the large rectangular box.

While the door closed and the elevator went down, Siwoo checked inside his bag as if inspecting whether he had missed anything in Sejin’s house.

Inside the bag were a binder containing the marriage contract documents, a container of Sejin’s breast milk that Siwoo had taken out of the freezer, and a snack and a uniquely shaped glass bottle that Sejin had packed separately.

Siwoo took out the uniquely shaped glass bottle from among them, placed it on the palm of his hand, and slowly turned it around to examine it.

The jar-shaped bottle, with no label attached, had a long lid that wrapped around the neck of the bottle, making it look like a handicraft at first glance.

It was a glass bottle with a unique atmosphere, not quite like a commercially sold beverage.

A semi-transparent glass bottle that did not allow the inside to be completely visible.

Only the color of the liquid contained inside could be faintly discerned.

The pink liquid inside felt somehow familiar to Siwoo.

The moment the color caught his eye, Siwoo unconsciously thought ‘maybe’.

A perfume he had recently received from Se-young suddenly came to mind.

Without hesitation, Siwoo immediately opened the lid, checked the shape inside, and inhaled slightly.

The head inside the lid was shaped like a spray pump, commonly found in perfumes or mists.

Siwoo carefully placed the index finger of the hand holding the bottle on the pump.

Then, he held out his opposite wrist and brought the entrance of the bottle close to it, and pressed down with force on his finger.

Chik-

A thin pink mist sprayed out from the nozzle on the head of the glass bottle and scattered quietly on Siwoo’s wrist.

Soon, a longing yet subtle scent brushed past Siwoo’s nose.

As expected, Siwoo’s hunch was correct.

The same scent as the perfume that Se-young had given Siwoo recently was contained in the bottle Siwoo was holding now.

Siwoo suddenly felt a tremor as if something was stabbing him deep inside his chest.

Suddenly, his heart began to pound.

As if something he had forgotten was resurrected by the subtle scent…

It was just a scent, but as memories and emotions revived, something in his chest felt numb.

Siwoo wanted to go back to Sejin right away and ask about the origin of the perfume or the intention of giving him the perfume, but for some reason, a moment’s hesitation that he shouldn’t do that grabbed Siwoo’s steps.

Anxiety, tension, and a strange tremor, as if entrusting himself to fate or providence, were quietly rippling deep within Siwoo’s heart.

**

The elevator arrived on the first floor, and the door slowly opened.

The figures of people who appeared to be families momentarily caught Siwoo’s eye.

Siwoo, who had been distracted by observing the perfume, quickly tucked the lower front hem of his school uniform jacket inside, covering his erect penis.

A sudden wave of embarrassment and tension.

What he saw in front of him was the appearance of harmonious families who seemed to have just returned from grocery shopping.

Two couples who seemed to be young were sharing grocery baskets and plastic bags.

There was also a middle-aged couple, probably in their mid to late 40s, sharing snacks and tangerines…

And next to those parents were children laughing brightly and chatting cheerfully.

Children who seemed to be around Siwoo’s age….

There were also older sisters who looked like Se-hee.

Although he didn’t count exactly, there were quite a few.

A dad, a mom, boys and girls mixed together, creating a friendly atmosphere as if they were leaning close to each other…

“Se-ryung, hurry! The elevator’s here!”

Among them, a girl who looked quite young turned around and called someone’s name as if urging them.

A small build and impression that seemed to be two or three years younger than Se-young…

“Hey! Even so, how can you call your older sister’s name like that?”

Soon after, a rather mature woman’s voice echoed from across the hallway, as if approaching.

It was a woman who seemed to be a college student, with distinct features and a calm atmosphere.

“Hehe~ What’s wrong with it? Now that it’s come to this~”

The girl who carelessly called her sister’s name did not seem to have any problem with her protest, and replied innocently, as if there was nothing wrong.

Although it was clearly a strange and uncomfortable situation from the perspective of outsiders, the air flowing in that space was not heavy, but rather felt cozy and warm.

Amidst light jokes and laughter spreading softly, a scene of a truly ‘friendly family’ where no one antagonized or was wary of each other.

What Siwoo felt awkward in that was not anything else, but the fact that he had encountered so many families at once in an officetel building for single-person households or small families.

Were they families visiting residents living there?

Even so, the scene felt somewhat awkward…

Siwoo put the perfume in his bag and passed through the open elevator door, slipping through the gaps between those families.

“Oh? I guess he’s a new resident…”

The young girl who had just carelessly called her older sister’s name looked back at Siwoo and muttered to herself as if to herself.

Siwoo turned his head, startled as if surprised by the girl’s voice who was acting like she knew him.

The girl smiled lightly at Siwoo and waved her hand wide open.

Siwoo didn’t know how to react to the girl’s smile and gesture, and stopped there with a slightly embarrassed expression, looking at the girl.

The girl was looking at Siwoo with a bright yet harmless expression.

“You shouldn’t talk to strangers like that outside! You never know what’s going to happen in the future!”

The person who was called the older sister, who was coming towards the elevator from behind, passed Siwoo and said to the girl as if giving a warning.

“Is that so~?”

The girl playfully shrugged her shoulders at the older sister’s nagging.

That sister, Se-ryung, looked back at Siwoo for a moment, nodded with a pitiful expression as if to say sorry, grabbed the girl’s shoulder, and entered the elevator.

Soon, the elevator door closed softly and began to move upward with a low vibration.

Siwoo stood there for a moment, checking which floor the elevator stopped on.

The elevator went up to the 5th floor and then quietly stopped moving.

It seemed like all the families got off on the same floor.

Siwoo turned his head and slowly moved his steps towards the entrance on the first floor where the parking lot was.

Then, with a feeling of maybe again, he checked the large information sign attached next to the entrance.

Siwoo, standing in front of the large information sign attached next to the entrance, moved his eyes along the information about the building’s residential space.

The 1st to 5th floors seemed to be ordinary general residential areas, and above that, it was composed of officetel-only spaces for single-person households or small offices.

It seems that those families just now are families living in general households on the 5th floor.
