72 – Cigarette (8)

“Looks like you’re having the time of your life. Still glued to the teacher even as the morning session is about to start. Enjoying yourself?”

“Kuh…”

Hong-ryun’s sarcasm made Ha-yoon’s face flush with shame, and she trembled, unable to retort.

It was no use. She’d already shown him how she was gaping wide as his cock was inside her, so any excuse would just sound pathetic. It was better to keep her mouth shut.

With that thought, Ha-yoon scrubbed the damp floor with the mop she was holding.

It was the very spot where she’d been having intense sex with Teacher Park just moments ago. She had no choice but to mop, having been ordered to clean up before leaving.

The morning session was, of course, canceled. Sexing all night and into the morning was tiring even for Teacher Park, so he didn’t care about the session and went to sleep.

‘I’m exhausted too…!’

She had managed to get some sleep, but it was only for a short while. It wasn’t even sleep, but more like passing out, so she wasn’t refreshed. And she’d had intense sex again soon after waking up, so her body felt like lead.

To top it off, she had to clean up alone like this, which made her feel resentful. It wasn’t like she was the only one who had sex, so why did she have to clean everything up?

…Of course, she had made quite a mess, but still, this was too much.

‘And to have two taken away, including this one…!’

Having the morning sex counted towards the bet, she lost two cigarettes in just one day.

Now she had only fifteen cigarettes left. She had about four weeks until she met Woo-shin and Han Seol-ah, and having only fifteen left was a pretty serious problem.

‘I have to secure at least three, no matter what.’

Even if she failed twelve out of the remaining fifteen chances, she only needed to succeed three times.

That way, she might not get to smoke, but at least she wouldn’t be punished by Woo-shin and Han Seol-ah.

Damn it, I shouldn’t have smoked yesterday. As Ha-yoon grumbled inwardly and continued mopping, Hong-ryun, who had been watching her, blurted out.

“What are you guys plotting, anyway?”

“I’m tired as hell, what nonsense are you spouting?”

“Tell me honestly. You and Kim Seon-ah, are you trying to win over the teachers one by one to do something?”

What the hell is she talking about? Ha-yoon threw the mop into the bucket she had brought with her and stood up abruptly.

“Win over? Win over what?”

“Kim Seon-ah sweet-talked Teacher Gan to reduce your punishment. And Teacher Park held you in his arms, even skipping the morning session that he never misses. Don’t you think it’s reasonable to suspect something?”

“Win over with something like that? Do you like conspiracy theories or something?”

Ha-yoon looked at her with a dumbfounded expression, grabbed the handle of the bucket, and said,

“Move. I want to go back to the dorm and rest.”

“I’m not finished talking. What are you doing to Teacher Choi too?”

“Why is that bastard’s name coming up again?”

“Shin So-hyun, who went to Teacher Choi, hasn’t come back for a long time either, just like you… And Jin Si-won, who’s close to Shin So-hyun, is showing you affection. Isn’t this something you planned too?”

“What nonsense… Wait, Shin So-hyun hasn’t come back?”

Ha-yoon, annoyed by Hong-ryun’s constant conspiracy theories, was about to snap back when she was surprised by the name Shin So-hyun and asked again. Hong-ryun smiled, as if she had caught something.

“See? It’s something you planned, isn’t it?”

“Forget that, keep talking. Shin So-hyun hasn’t come back?”

Could she have really escaped? Ha-yoon asked with a slightly anxious voice, and Hong-ryun replied nonchalantly.

“I don’t know. I only heard that Shin So-hyun would be in the afternoon session, so I came to find you. She must have become teaching material for the afternoon session, unfortunately.”

“…I thought it was something else.”

Ha-yoon sighed and shook her head. It wasn’t uncommon for Teacher Choi to use a trainee he had called for duty as teaching material for the next day’s afternoon session.

Besides, judging from what Teacher Park had said, he already knew she was trying to escape, so she was probably being punished for that.

“So, are you going to admit it now? Tell me what you’re planning to do by winning over the teachers.”

“If I could win those bastards over, you’d be dead already, you damn bitch.”

She would have had the three of them torment Hong-ryun all day long and then thrown her into a prison or the military for public service.

Ha-yoon showed Hong-ryun a hand gesture with her thumb between her index and middle fingers and then trudged past her, bumping her shoulder.

“Ouch, shit.”

Of course, Ha-yoon was the one who was pushed back because of the difference in physique and strength.

Avoiding Hong-ryun’s gaze, which was looking at her like she was an idiot, she quickly walked away, tidied up the cleaning supplies, and headed to the shower room.

After taking a quick shower there and returning to the dorm, someone rushed to hug her.

“Ha-yoon, why are you only coming now! I was worried!”

It was Kim Seon-ah, without a doubt. Ha-yoon naturally hugged her back and said.

As they shared a brief reunion, Jin Si-won, who was behind Kim Seon-ah, cautiously approached and asked.

“Um, I know you’re back now, but did you hear about So-hyun?”

“Shin So-hyun? Ah, right.”

She had forgotten for a moment. Ha-yoon led the two of them into the hallway and said quietly.

“First of all, to get to the point, Shin So-hyun was caught trying to escape.”

“What? Did you tell them that?!”

“Of course not. Like I said, I only told them that Shin So-hyun was trying to badmouth Teacher Park.”

“So, the teachers already knew.”

“Yeah, that’s it.”

Jin Si-won muttered in disbelief at Kim Seon-ah’s words.

“The teachers knew? Who on earth…”

“It’s not about who, there were a lot of eyes watching here from the start, right?”

“Eyes watching? …Ah.”

Ha-yoon pointed to the surveillance camera installed in the hallway, and Jin Si-won lowered her head as if she had finally realized.

She must have known that there were surveillance cameras everywhere since she had been walking around the training center a lot with Shin So-hyun.

But they had thoroughly disguised their walks around the training center to make it look like they were looking for a place to meet in secret, so she probably didn’t think they would be caught that way.

Of course, she was right. The screen that Teacher Park had shown me wasn’t of them walking around together, but of Shin So-hyun, who hadn’t been here long, walking around the training center alone.

Ha-yoon shrugged, not intending to tell them about the inside story.

“In the end, it’s fortunate that she was caught before she even tried to escape.”

“But if that happens, So-hyun will be punished… Is it okay?”

“Is it okay? I heard on the way down that she’s being used as Teacher Choi’s teaching material this afternoon.”

“Ah…”

Jin Si-won’s shoulders drooped at Ha-yoon’s words. She didn’t know what she was going through, but it was definitely something worse than having her five senses sealed and being brought to climax repeatedly, like she had experienced.

Still, it’s much better than having her limbs cut off or being sent to a prison or the military for public service. Ha-yoon stretched languidly, thinking that, and said.

“Anyway, we’ve bought some time, so it’s up to you to persuade Shin So-hyun. I’m going to get some sleep.”

“What? You’re going to sleep now?”

“I’m really tired right now. I was stuck with that guy all night, and even this morning, you know?”

Of course, being stuck with him this morning was, in a way, her own fault, but Ha-yoon nonchalantly blamed Teacher Park and yawned deeply.

Then she immediately went into the dorm, found her bed, lay down, and closed her eyes without hesitation.

But that was only for a moment.

“Ha-yoon, Ha-yoon, wake up.”

“Ugh, ugh… I just lay down…”

Ha-yoon groaned and turned over at the sound of Kim Seon-ah’s voice shaking her.

It felt like it hadn’t even been 10 minutes since she had put her head on the pillow, and she was already trying to wake her up. What did I do wrong?

“There’s only 10 minutes left until the afternoon session. You’ll be punished by Teacher Choi if you don’t go quickly.”

“What? It’s already been that long?!”

But at Kim Seon-ah’s next words, even Ha-yoon had no choice but to jump up. She turned her head sharply to look at the clock, and it was as Kim Seon-ah had said.

‘No way. I just closed my eyes!’

Could I be dreaming right now? She grabbed Kim Seon-ah’s cheek and pulled it, looking at her with disbelieving eyes. Kim Seon-ah said with an absurd expression.

“…What are you doing all of a sudden?”

“I was wondering if I was dreaming. Ugh!”

“Then you should pull your own cheek, not mine.”

She felt a pain like her cheek was being torn off because she had pulled it without mercy.

Anyway, it’s not a dream. As she clutched her red cheek and shed a few tears, Kim Seon-ah also rubbed her own cheek and said.

“Anyway, let’s go quickly. Everyone else is already there.”

“Okay… Ugh.”

Koo-roo-roo – Ha-yoon, who had been answering dejectedly, clutched her stomach at the sound coming from it.

“Ha-yoon? Why are you suddenly grabbing your stomach? Are you sick?”

“It’s not that… I’m hungry…”

She had skipped breakfast because of Teacher Park, and she had skipped lunch because she was sleeping. Sex was also a physically demanding activity, and she had skipped meals, so it was hard to even take a step.

As she clutched her seemingly thinner stomach, an apple and a banana were held out in front of her.

“I knew it, so I saved some for you in advance. We can’t get caught throwing it on the floor like last time, so let’s quickly eat it here and then dispose of it in the bathroom later.”

“Kim Seon-ah…!”

“You don’t have to thank me, just eat quickly. There’s really not much time left.”

Ha-yoon nodded vigorously and devoured the apple and banana in both hands. Juice was all over her clothes and hands, but thanks to that, she was able to move in time.

Ha-yoon and Kim Seon-ah, who had quickly filled their stomachs, ran towards Teacher Choi’s classroom. Fortunately, Teacher Choi was not in the classroom when they arrived.

But there was something else that caught their eye instead of Teacher Choi. In the middle of the classroom, where the desks had been pushed aside to create space, there was a wooden horse.

But it wasn’t just a horse-shaped object. The back was shaped like a triangle, with a pointed top. It was commonly called a triangular horse.

And on top of it, Shin So-hyun was tightly bound, her mouth gagged with a ball gag, silently screaming.
