Inside the practice room, it was truly something else.

The people hunting were beyond belief.

“So cute? What year are you in?”

“Is she from our department? I’ve never seen such a cute girl before.”

Seeing two guys and one loser sitting there made me feel like I was in utopia.

First things first, I had to help Jiwon.

“Excuse me, is there a problem with my friend here?”

Approaching them, the men asked if she was my friend.

“Hey, why didn’t we introduce ourselves a bit?”

Seeing those two men speak like that, I wanted to turn this hunting into a hunt.

But lacking that power, it seemed best to get Jiwon out of there now.

“Jiwon, let’s go.”

Upon my words, Jiwon understood and started gathering her things.

As Jiwon tried to leave, one of the men started grabbing her hand.

“It’ll only take a moment, let’s talk.”

It was unbelievable. I held onto Jiwon’s hand and told him it wasn’t okay.

Jiwon looked at the man.

Then, in a serious tone, she spoke up.

“Let go.”

I had never heard Jiwon speak so seriously.

She usually joked around all the time.

Either she was really angry or genuinely annoyed.

For now, I had to quickly get Jiwon out of there.

**

We stepped outside, and I bought Jiwon coffee at the convenience store.

After getting the coffee, Jiwon thanked me and asked if I was okay.

I didn’t understand what she meant by asking if I was okay.

“No, you missed class because of me. Are you okay?”

What could be the problem?

Attendance was already taken care of.

Our professor, who marks attendance once in the morning for the entire day, is an angel.

Just go in later when you’re packing up, and that’s it.

At least for now, missing it wasn’t a big deal.

Thinking this, I told Jiwon it was fine.

“Sorry… because of me.”

Jiwon kept apologizing to me, and I didn’t know what to say.

“Well… it’s okay, have some coffee.”

“I can’t drink coffee. I don’t like bitter stuff.”

Damn, I bought two for nothing.

Quickly, I got a strawberry milk instead and handed it to her.

I’ll save the two coffees for when I’m working on assignments at home.

You can’t waste coffee, which is like a lifeline for college students.

After finishing the coffee, I told her to head back when enough time had passed.

But I wasn’t sure if we could go back there again.

I wondered if it would be okay for Jiwon to return there.

After thinking for a while, Jiwon asked if we could just play hooky for the rest of the day.

It didn’t matter much.

I only had my laptop in my bag, and it was just a cheap one. Losing it wouldn’t be a problem.

“I want to go to McDonald’s again.”

Unable to resist Jiwon’s request, we decided to go to McDonald’s.

That was a relief.

The afternoon class was with Seong-ah noona.

I even thought she might show up during break in that suffocating place.

Feeling relieved, we went back to McDonald’s together.

**

In the afternoon, unlike lunchtime, McDonald’s was not crowded.

Deciding to try a different menu this time, Jiwon ordered an Egg Bulgogi Burger.

“Putting bulgogi and fried egg in a burger sounds delicious.”

This guy knows how to eat.

Thinking that, I ordered the same menu she was having.

It should be good if she likes it.

Thinking this, we enjoyed the Egg Bulgogi set together.

After eating to our fill, Jiwon still seemed uncomfortable, bowing her head.

“What’s bothering you this time?”

I asked her why she seemed unhappy.

“It’s not that I’m unhappy. It’s just that I feel sorry.”

Sorry? Did you just say sorry now?

Surprising, Jiwon also had feelings of remorse.

Thinking that way, I asked Jiwon why she was acting like that.

“You seem to rely on me too much these days.”

“I’m just so sorry…”

I couldn’t deny what she said.

Since her words were all true and accurate, I couldn’t say anything.

If she feels sorry like this, I couldn’t say anything either.

I never had any intention of saying anything in the first place.

With those thoughts in mind, I looked at Jiwon.

Jiwon kept bowing her head.

She’s really feeling sorry.

Since some time had passed, I suggested we grab our bags and leave.

We then exited McDonald’s and entered the classroom.

The lecture was already over.

We grabbed our bags and walked out.

I told Jiwon I was leaving and we decided to go home together.

After leaving the classroom and stepping outside,

“Damn it.”

“Oh! Jihoo, watch your language.”

“Sh*t.”

“Well done!”

It was raining outside.

Jiwon was right.

It seemed like it definitely wouldn’t rain today.

I really didn’t expect it to rain.

“I have an umbrella!”

Jiwon took out an umbrella and handed it to me.

“Hey, what about you?”

Upon closer inspection, I noticed that Jiwon didn’t have an umbrella.

Could it be that she’s pretending to give me hers and get wet herself?

If so, I’d feel bad.

So, I suggested we share the umbrella instead.

“Yeah? Isn’t that obvious?”

Contrary to my expectations, Jiwon insisted that we should share the umbrella.

It’s my fault for expecting something sentimental from this guy…

We started walking home together under the shared umbrella.

We could have taken the subway.

But Jiwon said she had no money for transportation.

Since it’s only a 30-minute walk, she considered it exercise and chose to walk.

“It’s tough.”

“Hang in there…”

Jiwon immediately expressed how difficult it was and quickly sat down.

“My shoulders are soaked.”

Showing her wet shoulders, she complained about it.

“Wait, let me take this.”

I made Jiwon hold the umbrella and quietly took off my cardigan to put it on her.

“Why? I’m not cold.”

Although Jiwon insisted she wasn’t cold, I pointed out that her shirt was getting wet.

“Oh…”

She checked her own T-shirt and noticed her underwear was visible, so she started buttoning up the cardigan.

“These wet clothes are pointless.”

“I used to think bigger breasts were better from watching anime, but they’re just heavy and uncomfortable.”

Are they really that heavy?

I wouldn’t know since I don’t have them, but they must be uncomfortable.

“It must be quite tough.”

Upon hearing that, Jiwon looked at me and spoke.

“Wanna try carrying them for once?”

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

I immediately told her not to talk nonsense after her strange comment.

**

Upon arriving home, Jiwon complained about feeling cold.

Even though we used an umbrella, our bodies, except for our heads, were drenched.

I was wet too, so it was a problem.

“Let’s shower first. I’ll turn on the heater. Go ahead and shower.”

Jiwon agreed with my suggestion.

“Wow…”

Jiwon started taking off her T-shirt in front of me.

As she removed it, her two large melons came into view.

However, it seemed like the T-shirt got caught on her head, causing Jiwon to lose balance and fall over.

As she fell, I saw a huge Mount Everest in front of my eyes.

If I want to see Everest in the future, I might not need to travel abroad; I can just watch Jiwon take off her T-shirt.

“It’s stuck on my head, help me.”

I agreed and helped Jiwon remove her T-shirt.

Lastly, as she also took off her pants, revealing her skin, I quietly covered my eyes.

“Jihoo, can you help me with this?”

She said the back hook was stuck, asking for my help.

“Please do it yourself, I’m a man too.”

“I’m a man too, so it’s fine. Just help me with this one.”

Hmm… that makes sense.

I can’t argue with that. In the end, I approached Jiwon and helped her unhook her bra.

I haven’t seen it yet. There was something big from the side, but I haven’t seen it yet.

Thinking like that, I covered my eyes again.

Jiwon said she was going to go into the bathroom to take a shower.

I heard the sound of the door closing.

After confirming that Jiwon had entered, I opened my eyes.

There, I saw Jiwon’s bra and panties.

Damn it, please be careful.

I’m a guy too, so I don’t know why they’re acting like this as if I’ll do something bad.

I took Jiwon’s underwear and put it in the washing machine.

Then, I left a fresh pair of underwear in front of the door, deciding to wait until Jiwon came out.

While waiting for Jiwon to finish showering.

The bathroom door started to open little by little.

“Jihoo! When are you going to shower?”

In response to Jiwon’s words, I replied that I would shower when she came out.

Jiwon looked at me and said, “Then, want to shower together?”

Surprised by her words, I didn’t know what to say.

“Let’s shower together.”

I don’t know what to say to Jiwon’s smile.
