Sunday is a good day for couples to meet and go on a date.

On such a nice day, Si-hyuk called Su-ah and Da-yoon.

Da-yoon, who was called out into the city while feeling nervous, found Su-ah and vowed to somehow protect her from Si-hyuk’s dirty hands.

Sihyuk, who was approaching from afar while sipping coffee, waved to the two.

“Why did you call us?”

Su-ah, who was decked out in a pink cardigan and a white long skirt that she rarely wears because she doesn’t like wearing them, glared at Si-hyuk and asked.

Shihyuk also willingly answered the question that was only meant to deceive Dayoon.

“We’re going on a date today. The three of us.”

“Date?”

Dayoon said, snorting in disbelief.

Shihyuk also knows how absurd it is for a blackmailer to ask him to go on a date.

However, the one who made this threat was none other than Kim Soo-ah.

It’s a date plan that Soo-ah made to date her girlfriend Da-yoon and use Si-hyuk to do dirty things.

“Why, don’t you like it?”

When Shihyuk stared at Da-yoon, who was laughing, she flinched and closed her eyes.

“The date course is all planned out, so if you don’t want to do it, just say no.”

There was no answer in return.

“Then shall we start with lunch?”

Sihyuk took the lead and went into the pasta restaurant he had reserved.

Da-yoon was internally angry that she had to spend the only important day of the week without working with Si-hyuk instead of alone with Su-ah.

‘It’s probably because he can’t get a girlfriend through normal means that he dates her like this through threats.’

Da-yoon had expected that the date course planned by Si-hyuk, who seemed to have never dated a woman before, would definitely be bad.

That was until Shihyuk ate the pasta he ordered without asking them.

-Hurup

“town… .”

Da-yoon, who almost exclaimed “It’s delicious” without realizing it, shut her lips tightly.

Dayoon’s eyes widened at the rich, sweet flavor of the tomato sauce and the slightly chewy al dente noodles, which were different from the soft noodles she usually eats.

It’s true that pasta is delicious. However, there’s no need to say that to make Shihyuk feel better, so Dayoon takes another bite without saying anything.

I chewed slowly and carefully, swallowed, and then ate without stopping.

“Is the pasta here delicious?”

Shihyuk noticed that Dayoon’s eyes were wide open and she was inhaling the pasta as soon as she took a bite, and he smiled slyly and said.

“… So-so.”

Da-yoon swallowed the food in her mouth, said something she didn’t mean, and then wiped her lips with a napkin.

For Dayoon, who usually cooks for her grandmother and younger siblings at home and eats the leftover side dishes, the pasta was so delicious.

“Honey, ah~”

When Shi-hyuk, who had been ignoring her, brought her to a really delicious restaurant, Da-yoon became upset. Not knowing this, Su-ah handed Da-yoon a piece of pasta rolled up on a fork.

Da-yoon’s heart was relieved as she looked at the beautiful face of Su-ah sitting next to her, and she opened her mouth with an embarrassed expression.

“Ah, ah~”

Da-yoon, who was still not used to this kind of affectionate behavior, put Su-ah’s fork in her mouth.

‘Ugh…!’

This is also delicious!

The seafood pasta that Shihyuk ordered without asking went to Suah, and it was also very delicious.

The seafood pasta completely took over Dayoon’s mouth with its sauce full of the taste of the sea and its crispy, bursting shrimp.

Da-yoon, whose mood suddenly improved after eating something delicious, tried her best to suppress her smile and fed Su-ah some pasta.

Of course, it was Su-ah, not Si-hyuk, who had found this pasta restaurant in advance, but of course, Da-yoon couldn’t have known that fact.

As they left the pasta restaurant, Dayoon felt like she had been defeated by Sihyuk.

After paying for all the food and leaving, Su-ah saw Da-yoon looking strangely defeated and held her hand out.

“Ah… Is it okay…?”

Da-yoon whispered, feeling good about holding hands with her girlfriend but concerned about the gazes of others.

Since South Korea is a country where homosexuality is prohibited, there is an atmosphere of avoiding women linking arms or holding hands.

But there are exceptions.

“What if I’m here?”

Sihyuk came next to Dayoon and said.

“Oh, you were there too… .”

The way to be friendly with other women without being suspected of being homosexuals is to bring a man with you.

This is because people think that when one man and two women are together, there is a heterosexual vibe among the three.

If you see a guy dating two women, you think that the two women are lesbians and not the guy who is dating them, but that a capable man is dating two women.

Shi-hyuk thinks that this is why Soo-ah put him on this date.

If you’re only going to do dirty things, you can end your date with Dayoon and call Sihyuk.

However, since he wanted to show affection, such as holding hands with Da-yoon, without raising suspicion from others while dating, he called him before the date.

Because of that, Da-yoon was really annoyed by Si-hyuk, but she was also happy because she could hold Su-ah’s hand without worrying about what others thought.

Anyway, after a delicious lunch, Sihyuk led the two to the movie theater.

After picking out the movie tickets that Su-ah had chosen and reserved with her own money, she went into the theater and sat down.

Although it seemed like a really boring romantic comedy movie to Si-hyuk, Su-ah and Da-yoon watched it and had fun whispering to each other.

To be honest, he found it more fun to watch the two of them whispering in each other’s ears, laughing happily, and looking at each other intently during a romantic scene before kissing, rather than watching a boring movie.

After watching the whole movie, while Shi-hyuk was stretching his heavy body, the two talked about which movie scenes were good.

As he watched Su-ah having a pleasant conversation with her girlfriend, Shi-hyuk thought that she was different from the woman who had slapped him last night, and drank the rest of his cola in one go.

As Si-hyuk was about to head to the art gallery according to the date plan that Soo-ah had made, he saw a movie theater arcade.

“… How about an arcade before we go to the next place?”

Shihyuk glanced at Suah and asked her permission to go to the arcade.

However, Da-yoon found it a little strange.

“If you tell me to go, I’ll go. Why do you ask?”

That’s right. In Dayoon’s eyes, Shihyuk is a blackmailer who forced them to go on a date.

It means there’s no need to ask if it’s okay to just go to the arcade.

Shi-hyuk, who had momentarily forgotten about the warm atmosphere created by eating together and watching a movie, felt sorry for himself.

Su-ah shot him a sinister look as if telling him to go into the house and see.

“… I was planning on going even though I didn’t want to go anyway.”

“I knew it. Tsk.”

Si-hyuk, feeling slightly intimidated by the thought that he had made a mistake, entered the arcade without anyone knowing.

And naturally, I put a coin into the basketball game I had loved since I was little.

Five basketballs rolled toward Shihyuk, and the basketball hoop began to sparkle as if to urge him to score a goal.

What Shihyuk didn’t expect was that Da-yoon would sit next to him.

“Huh?”

“Huh?”

“Do you like basketball games?”

“I can do better than you?”

“… You have to try it to find out.”

“Well, I think I know without even looking.”

The two started playing the game almost simultaneously, and the sound of the ball hitting the hoop echoed loudly throughout the arcade.

Although they didn’t say anything, they both wanted to beat the other.

Su-ah watched the competition between the two from the side as if she found it amusing.

After a few minutes, the game ended and Shihyuk was defeated.

It’s not that I was unlucky or anything, Dayoon just scored better goals.

Dayoon, her slightly damp red ponytail fluttering, made a mean expression and said something to Sihyuk.

“I can’t do it.”

“Huh… .”

“I actually learned basketball until middle school.”

“You’re cowardly… !”

“Who told a girl to play basketball?”

Si-hyuk grew up being beaten by Su-ah, so he had no confidence, and because he was small, he rarely played basketball with his friends.

He forgot about it after he became a high school student, gained height, and started working out, but he really had no sense of exercise.

This was especially true for sports involving ball handling.

Sihyuk, who lost a game to a pretty girl, bit his lip and ran away to find another game console.

Sihyuk, who had taken a seat at the fighting game console, chose a male lion character and began a battle with the CPU.

Sihyuk, who won the first round easily and reached the second round, smiled as he remembered the arcade from his childhood that came to mind after a long time.

And that laughter was broken by an ‘intrusion’.

In an arcade fighting game, a barge-in means that the person sitting on the other side of the machine has challenged you to a fight.

The person who intruded was… Dayoon.

“Can you win this?”

Ignoring Dayoon’s voice full of laughter, Shihyuk chose the sleek female character with the bat-like appearance that he was best at.

“I don’t know much about basketball, but I’m confident in fighting?”

Sihyuk released his hand with a serious expression, swallowed, and started a duel with Dayoon.

And the second defeat was engraved on Sihyuk.

Unable to contain his anger, he slammed his fist into the game console.

-bang!

“No, it’s not a shovel!”

Si-hyuk was furious at Dayoon’s long-range attacks or low-level attacks that were difficult to block, so he questioned her, but all he got in return was ridicule.

“I’m so bad at games.”

Realizing that he could be angry at such a pretty woman, Shi-hyuk became furious and put a coin in again to challenge for a match.

And then I lost again.

“Why is she a naked female character?”

“I don’t know. Maybe he’s a pervert.”

Shi-hyuk, who was hurt by Soo-ah and Da-yoon’s conversation from the other side, ran away to the doll grabber machine.

In the draw where he had given up after losing ten thousand won, Su-Ah won the doll in one go, and this time he lost to Su-Ah.

After being beaten for an hour like that, Sihyuk stumbled out of the arcade.

Su-ah and Da-yoon, who followed them, laughed so loudly that Si-hyuk could hear them, saying that it was fun.

For Da-yoon, who had never held hands or whispered sweet nothings to Soo-ah on the street in her life, it was a truly happy moment that could be called the best date ever.

It would have been better if Sihyuk hadn’t been there, but strangely enough, he didn’t bother to bother them as if he was there to help them date.

Instead, he would take her to a delicious pasta restaurant, find a good movie, and have fun by losing to her and Su-ah endlessly at the arcade.

“Follow me.”

Of course, as Shihyuk took the two into increasingly deserted alleys, Dayoon’s face hardened, thinking, ‘Well, then, that’s how it is.’

The highlight of the date was approaching.
