weekend.

Choi Do-hyeon was at Si-woo Si-woo’s house.

Si-Woo Si-Woo felt a little uncomfortable about having his time with Yoo Ji-Min interrupted again, but he didn’t show it.

They spent their time playing games as usual.

Even though we did almost the same activities every time, there was no sign of getting bored.

“Up from there! That’s right!”

The one I’m most excited about is Yoo Ji-min.

During a brief break, she lightly tapped Choi Do-hyun on the shoulder and laughed.

While playing the game, I touched his shoulder several times and even pushed his shoulder with my back as if he was lying down.

Seeing that, Si-woo Si-woo’s eyebrows twitched.

A sense of distance that seemed strangely comfortable.

It was just a touch that was vague to even call it skinship.

That alone makes me feel uncomfortable.

It’s difficult to say out loud, but it’s also difficult to get annoyed by this.

I felt like I didn’t want to do more things like that.

‘If I say such a trivial thing… does it make me look a little boring…?’

I didn’t want to give her the impression that I was a ‘man obsessed with small things’.

In the end, he just smiled and tried to get over the situation.

And, after seeing that, Yoo Ji-min thinks again.

‘..It looks like nothing’s wrong.’

“Oh, give me a call.”

Choi Do-hyun was away.

With a wide smile on your face.

He opened the front door and went out, probably intending to make a phone call while looking outside in the hallway.

“Let’s take a break too.”

Yoo Ji-min raised both arms and stretched her body.

I felt like my aching body was loosening up. I leaned my upper body on the bed for a moment and cooled my head.

After a while. When you feel that your brain, which has become tired from playing games, has had enough rest.

“…Shu, I’ll come back to get some air for a moment.”

Yoo Ji-min decided to go out with Choi Do-hyeon.

I wondered who was making him laugh like that.

As I opened the door and went out, I saw Choi Do-hyeon answering the phone, leaning against a low wall.

“…Uh, I love you too. I’ll contact you again later, Yeeun.”

His face as he said that looked happy, as if he had everything in the world.

The phone hung up and he turned his back.

“Surprise. When did it come out?”

“Just now. I also want to get some air… Jeong Ye-eun?”

“Yes.”

“You said you were dating her…”

“uh.”

He smiles as if he is reminiscing about the conversation he just had.

Feeling an impulse of unknown origin, she continued the conversation.

“Enter – ”

“How about it?”

“Huh? What?”

“Because I’m in love. Do you like it?”

“Of course. Why, because you want to date too?”

“Yes. Please tell me something.”

Yoo Ji-min asked with wide eyes.

“Okay. So…”

Choi Do-hyeon began to tell his past memories one by one with a smile on his face.

That look… was cool.

A man talking about happiness with his lover while basking in the sunlight under the autumn sky.

I was jealous.

The story she heard, and what she had just witnessed herself.

Being able to smile and share affection even when we are not close to each other.

There are people who care for each other like that and can say precious things to each other…

When I thought about the dark and lonely scenery of her house, I was deeply envious.

“…I’m jealous.”

Those words came out without me even knowing. She quickly looked away.

“Huh? What?”

“Oh, no. Just, it looks good.”

Fortunately, he nodded and accepted what I said.

“Yes. I work hard because I want to be nice to Ye-eun. But, that doesn’t bother me at all.”

“Oh… he’s a good boyfriend?”

She smiled and nudged his arm with her elbow.

“Thank you. Do you want to go in now?”

“Okay.”

Choi Do-hyun opened the door, and Yoo Ji-min followed him.

She thought as she looked at his broad back.

‘…Sounds good, he is.’

Si-woo was in the room as usual.

Although he has worked hard for several months, he shows no signs of getting over it.

He had to blush when someone approached him… but since he didn’t seem immune to women in the first place, I didn’t think it would only affect him.

So, if I’m going to continue with this –

‘…Shall I take it away?’

It was a thought that slowly reared its head in her mind.

What if his affection for Jeong E-eun turns towards himself?

What if you were the one talking on the phone while smiling happily like that?

When you smile happily and tell others about your memories, if the person in the story is you.

Wouldn’t you be really happy?

She saw Choi Do-hyun holding the game console again.

Although I am not close to Jeong Ye-eun, I have often seen her in the same class.

When I looked at my personality or appearance, I never thought I was pushed out.

‘…….’

It’s a bad thing, but I think this might be the closest way to being happy.

Even at first glance, he looks handsome and has a nice body.

furthermore…

After all, wasn’t it Choi Do-hyun who was always by her side whenever she was having a hard time?

The more I thought about it, the more my desire for it grew.

A little later.

She approached Choi Do-hyeon and said, showing him the controller in her hand.

“How did you set this up earlier?”

With a distance that is much closer than before.

**

I was confused by Yoo Ji-min’s behavior.

It wasn’t that he lost his composure outright.

Just like a computer that has acquired new data, it just takes time to analyze and process the data.

‘what? If you feel this much distance in front of Si-woo…’

First of all, it means that the scale is tilted to some extent.

After the phone call with Jeong Ye-eun, his behavior changed.

What has been accumulating for so long is that that call is a trigger…

This means that I no longer desire the affection I showed to others, rather than the affection I received back from Si-woo.

“Oh, like this?”

“Uh. Now go up there twice… uh.”

“Yes, thank you!”

Her arms are attached to mine.

Just like Yoo Ji-min did to Si-woo Si in the beginning.

The clothes she wore were comfortable short sleeves and shorts.

When you do a triceps stretch by putting your hand behind your back and pushing down your elbow with the other hand, your clothes rise and your sides are exposed.

“Hey, your clothes are going up.”

“Huh? Ah… why do you care?”

The eye smile that comes with saying that.

“What are you saying?”

Seeing her like that, Si-Woo also seemed quite confused.

My eyes are shaking and my expression is confused.

And her behavior continued until they left Si-Woo’s house and headed to their own homes.

Siwoo stayed at his house, and we walked together.

“Where do we go now? To meet your girlfriend?”

“Hmm… I think I’ll probably only see your face for a moment.”

“Okay…? Uh, look over there. What festival is it?”

As I followed her white fingers, I heard flashing lights and commotion.

“Huh? I know. An apartment complex festival, something like that.”

“Let’s take a quick look over there!”

“No, I – ”

“Just follow me! If there’s something that costs money, I’ll use it.”

She grabbed my wrist and led me into that noisy place.

I liked the feel of the thin fingers wrapped around my wrist.

“Uh, hey. Go slowly.”

I arrived as if I was running.

There were booths with various foods and games.

The scents of various foods tickled my nose.

Children running around, parents watching them anxiously.

A happy family.

However, nothing could take my attention away from Yoo Ji-min, who was smiling brightly.

“Um… how much is this for one?”

She purchased a chicken skewer.

There was sauce spread on top that looked like teriyaki.

“Are you hungry?”

“No, it just looks delicious. I’ll give you a bite. Ah!”

She flicked one ear and put the skewer into her mouth.

The smell of perfume wafts out as you get closer.

A scent that couldn’t be masked by the smell of chicken skewers.

“Hurry!”

“Huh? Just – wow.”

“How about it, is it delicious?”

Expectant and questioning eyes.

And, the act of putting the skewer I bit into into my mouth.

It was a smooth, flowing movement, as if I had no idea it was an indirect kiss.

It’s a movement that doesn’t seem to be conscious at all… but there may be another calculation involved.

‘…That’s why you got away with it, Si-Woo.’

Skinship that is done naturally, as if indifferently, every time.

In addition, the pretty smile and strange emotions contained in each action shake the other person.

Now those actions are starting to turn towards me…

…Knife to knife.

Dealer to dealer matchup.

A direct response.

Until now, the other heroines were in my position to be captured.

Sword and shield, or cannon and fortress.

Now she wants to attack me and take me away from Jeong Ye-eun.

What I need to do is, rather, make it to a point where she can’t live without me… and pull her towards us.

Yu Ji-min is on one side, and Jeong Ye-eun is on the other.

I stand in the middle, pretending not to notice and giving my strength to Jeong Ye-eun in a tug-of-war.

If Yoo Ji-min crosses the middle line and comes into the side of Jeong Ye-rin and Lim Chae-won, it will be a success.

First, I hang out with her as she wants and dye her with my colors.

Until she, who wants complete affection, is satisfied with divided affection.

‘..This is my first time here.’

This was my first time experiencing this kind of structure, so I burst out laughing.

A little bit of a sense of victory.
