37 – Pets (3)

The morning schedule passed without anything particularly special. Ha-yoon was punished to be a pet, losing her status as a trainee, but she ran with the other trainees. She felt her elbows and knees grating against each other, and an unspeakable pain assailed her, but she had no choice but to run while crying.

Every time she stopped, Hong-ryun’s palm struck her buttocks. It wasn’t just Hong-ryun. People who were fond of her, excluding people like Kim Sun-ah or Jin Shi-won, each took turns hitting Ha-yoon’s buttocks hard.

This was because it was said that if Ha-yoon stopped or fell, a trainee nearby had to give her a penalty no matter what. Otherwise, Mr. Park would quickly come and jam his dick in, so it was unavoidable.

After seeing Kim Sun-ah, who hesitated to hit, get raped by Mr. Park, Jin Shi-won had no choice but to hit Ha-yoon’s buttocks again when she stopped.

“Hic!”

Smack—compared to the previous people, it wasn’t a very loud sound, but her skin, which had been repeatedly massaged by hands, was extremely sensitive, so even that felt strong.

Ha-yoon shed tears and hobbled on again. She repeated this several times, and after the outdoor training ended, she was washed by Hong-ryun in the shower room.

Of course, she wasn’t washed gently either. Hong-ryun kicked Ha-yoon, drove her into a corner, and sprayed her with a showerhead in each hand.

“Hieeek! C-c-cold!”

As soon as the water touched her body, Ha-yoon screamed.

Usually, the water was heated by a boiler to make it warm, but basically, they used water drawn from a mountain stream, so if they didn’t, freezing water that felt like cutting skin poured out even in the middle of summer.

She knew this very well because someone had once turned off the boiler in the shower room used by the trainees as a punishment.

Hong-ryun made a sadistic expression, kicked Ha-yoon, who was trying to escape from the water stream, and drove her in, saying,

“Cold? We were very cold back then too.”

“Hiit, Hieeek!”

“Stay still. I’m trying to cool you down.”

Along with the screams, laughter was heard. Kim Sun-ah swept her wet bangs back with her hand and glared in the direction of Hong-ryun. But there, Baek So-ra and Ryu Jin-ah were glancing around, ready to react at any time while washing.

She could handle one person well enough, but two was too much. Kim Sun-ah took a long breath and said to Jin Shi-won, who was washing next to her,

“Shi-won.”

“What?”

“If you help me, I think I can take down those two and even steal the leash, what do you think?”

“What are you going to do after you steal the leash?”

More than that, your tone has changed. Jin Shi-won thought so and continued,

“It was Ms. Gan who gave Hong-ryun the leash. Even if you take it, Ms. Gan will quickly take it back and return it to Hong-ryun. Or that person will take it back again.”

It was truly meaningless. No matter how much you take it by force, it was clear that it would be taken away by a greater force. Kim Sun-ah also thought the same as Jin Shi-won’s words, and closed her mouth tightly. Seeing her like that, Jin Shi-won said,

“It would be faster to negotiate with Ms. Gan. I don’t know what kind of whim it is, but some of the restrictions imposed on Ha-yoon have disappeared.”

“Negotiation, huh…”

Negotiations were already underway. With Ms. Choi on sick leave and not coming to work, Kim Sun-ah had to go to the infirmary where Ms. Gan was during the empty afternoon schedule. But if that happened, there would be no one to stand up for Ha-yoon in the afternoon.

“Shi-won, please do me a favor.”

“A favor, what is it?”

“When I can’t stand up for Ha-yoon, please stand up for her instead.”

“…Me?”

Kim Sun-ah nodded. Jin Shi-won stared at her for a moment, washed her face several times, and said,

“I’m sorry to say this, but just like you cherish Ha-yoon, there’s someone I cherish too, you know?”

“You mean Shin So-hyun?”

“Yeah. It’s my intuition, no, it’s very likely that if I try to cover for Ha-yoon, both So-hyun and I will be screwed. Then wouldn’t I be losing too much?”

It was a cold statement, but it couldn’t be helped. No matter how much Jin Shi-won liked Ha-yoon’s appearance, she was still a stranger.

It was absurd to weigh someone she had only met for three days against someone she had exchanged bodies and minds with for over two months.

Kim Sun-ah also knew that her words were unreasonable, so she nodded and said,

“I know that much. I’m not trying to ask you recklessly.”

“Then?”

“For two months. I’ll prevent Shin So-hyun from being called as a duty by Ms. Gan. Of course, I can’t handle the other two teachers.”

“…Is that possible?”

“Yes. Enough.”

Of course, even if she didn’t agree to the condition, Kim Sun-ah was scheduled to be Ms. Gan’s duty for a while. At least a week.

But if Jin Shi-won accepted the condition, she was thinking of somehow buttering up Ms. Gan and making her continue to call her as a duty.

Whether that was possible was another matter. Kim Sun-ah said to Jin Shi-won, who was contemplating,

“So, what are you going to do?”

“…What am I supposed to do?”

“It’s nothing much. Just try to prevent Hong-ryun from doing anything too harsh to Ha-yoon.”

“What’s considered harsh? I can’t stop everything Hong-ryun does. I don’t have the justification for that.”

From the beginning, Ha-yoon was in a position to be punished. Except for killing her, Hong-ryun, who had been given the authority, could do whatever she wanted.

Hearing that, Kim Sun-ah said,

“Think about it however you want. If you think it’s too harsh, stop it.”

“…What if I don’t think it’s harsh and don’t stop it?”

“I’ll trust your morality.”

Morality, huh. You’re saying words that are hard to hear here. Jin Shi-won laughed dryly and swept back her hair.

“Okay, let’s do it.”

Indoor training, ballet lesson time.

Kim Sun-ah glared at Hong-ryun in front of her.

“What are you looking at?”

“Stop tormenting Ha-yoon.”

“Talking to you is always a broken record.”

Hong-ryun stretched out her arms and legs with a languid face that contrasted with the hideous smile she had in the shower room.

Arabesque, she hummed softly and muttered.

“Do you like Ha-yoon?”

“I do.”

“Sexually, or as a friend?”

“As a friend, I like her.”

“That’s unusual. To make someone like that a friend.”

Hong-ryun said that to Kim Sun-ah, who answered without hesitation.

At the same time, she rotated her arms and legs in the same direction and took an en bas position.

Then she lifted her foot and attached it to the opposite leg, rotating in place.

Hong-ryun’s graceful rotation was beautiful. Considering she was someone who had almost killed someone with hypothermia a little while ago.

Hong-ryun looked at her reflection in the mirror behind Kim Sun-ah, who was glaring at her, and said,

“You know what? I don’t really like ballet.”

“…What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“Dancers who dance to prepared dances to classical tunes. When I see those people dancing, I wonder why I’m watching this.”

Culture or whatever. Why is watching ballet a basic requirement? Hong-ryun couldn’t understand it, and didn’t want to understand it. She would rather go to a club and do drugs and have sex with pretty girls during that time.

She didn’t care about becoming a chaebol chairman or anything. She had a considerable stake from her father, so it wasn’t difficult to live as she had been, and if it was difficult, she could just ask her older brother, who would become the chairman.

She thought so until this happened. Hong-ryun muttered, looking at the tip of her hand, which was close to her face, rising up and slowly falling.

“But after becoming this body, I understood when I looked in the mirror. Why people like ballet, why those people are doing that on stage.”

The lines created by the beautiful appearance and beautiful body were beautiful in themselves. Even though she knew that all of this was training only to please men.

Hong-ryun clenched her fingers, made a fist, and looked at Kim Sun-ah.

“It looks like you’ve been flattering Ms. Gan, but you should stop.

“No. I won’t stop until you stop first.”

“This is advice. Ms. Gan is not someone you can handle however you want.”

Rather, if you use that desperation, she will never grant you what you want. That was Hong-ryun’s conclusion after watching Ms. Gan for five months.

“It’s only a week. You could mortgage the remaining half of your year to Ms. Gan because of that one week.”

“Do you know how much Ha-yoon will suffer from you during that one week?”

“Ha-yoon deserves to suffer like that. How many trainees do you think have suffered because of that person?”

It wasn’t just Hong-ryun, Baek So-ra, and Ryu Jin-ah. Graduates who are no longer here. And even the graduates above those graduates. It would be well over double digits at least. Ha-yoon, Ha Seung-jin, who made so many tears flow, all of this is karma.

“Don’t be proud of your vain pride with pathetic sympathy. Even if she’s your friend, don’t bet the remaining half of your year on someone you’ve only met for three days. Just close your eyes and pretend you don’t know. That’s how you can survive here.”

“…You’re saying the same thing as Ha-yoon.”

At those words, Hong-ryun’s body, which was about to lift her leg, stopped abruptly.

“…That person said that? To you?”

Huh. She laughed, exhaling. After becoming a woman and suffering a bit, she must have become quite emotional. Kim Sun-ah said as she chuckled.

“Ha-yoon definitely did something wrong. But that doesn’t mean you have to treat her like that.”

“Why do you think there’s no reason? I’m a victim. I’m a victim who cried countless times because of that person. Baek So-ra too, Ryu Jin-ah too.”

Kim Sun-ah also knew. That’s why she couldn’t argue more strongly. If she were in Hong-ryun’s situation, she would have done the same. But giving up here was the same as giving up on Ha-yoon.

“But now we’re fellow trainees. We should be embracing each other rather than fighting and tormenting each other.”

“What I’m doing now is embracing the trainees. I’m constantly telling someone who doesn’t listen even though I’m giving advice so kindly.”

“What about Ha-yoon? Isn’t she a fellow trainee?”

“Does that look like a fellow trainee to you?”

Following the slender finger, she turned her head and saw Ha-yoon stretching one leg straight up to the sky and licking the defenseless trainee’s pussy.

“Ahht, Haa, Ha-yoon, stop, hiit…!”

Shin So-hyun, who was being cunnilingused by Ha-yoon, cried out in a plaintive voice, but she didn’t stop. No, she couldn’t stop even if she wanted to. Because of Mr. Park’s hand holding her head, she couldn’t pull back until she reached her climax.

“That person is not a trainee. She’s a pet.”

Amidst Hong-ryun’s smiling voice, Shin So-hyun’s voice reaching climax was heard.

Kim Sun-ah bit her lip and just turned her head away.
