Episode 11

The main event was a joy.

Even when she recalled her memories and went to a studio apartment only to find it empty, she did not despair, but rather felt hope.

It was because the password to that one-room apartment, which was clearly the first time he had been there, was the number he knew.

“I wasn’t crazy after all.”

I was aware that I was forgetting something precious, but I had no clues, so I couldn’t help but doubt myself at times.

I even wondered if all of this was just my delusions and that I was simply mentally ill.

“But.”

She didn’t give up. She searched and searched. And finally she remembered.

An address somewhere I don’t know. Unlike the one-room apartment where I felt a faint sense of familiarity, it was an address I had never been to before.

And the moment I saw the tiny house at that address, I knew it was the one.

“Here it is.”

The vague pressure to not think about it was now slowly losing its power, because the powerful desire to want ‘him’ was overcoming everything.

However, by the time I found the house, I hadn’t remembered everything yet, so I rang the doorbell first.

“… … Is there anyone?”

After confirming that there was no answer no matter how many times he pressed it, Ju Seol-han approached the front door without hesitation and pressed the password for the door lock.

The number you pressed is the same combination as when you went to the studio. Let’s press that.

“Aha♡”

The front door opened all at once. Then, I went inside naturally as if it were my own home.

“Ss …

Ju Seol-ha’s body and consciousness were newly awakened as he smelled the scent of ‘that’ that was permeating every corner of the house. To be exact.

“Seonwoo oppa♡”

The story was that the memories ‘came back’ without even changing reality.

“Where could he be♡ Where could my brother be right now♡”

Even the goddess of love who was watching from afar was shocked by what had happened, but the person involved in the incident began to walk around the house with an indifferent expression.

“Oppa♡ Oppa♡ Oppa♡”

Now nothing could stop her. She took a quick look around the living room and headed toward the kitchen.

“Huh?”

Joo Seol-ha, who had been running lightly with steps that seemed to float through the sky, suddenly stopped.

As a side note, Lee Seon-woo was the type who kept his clothes, hairstyle, and even his house clean and tidy.

Because of this, the kitchen looked clean on the outside, but it wasn’t clean to Ju Seol-ha’s eyes.

It doesn’t mean it’s dirty. It just means it feels uncomfortable.

“… … salad?”

Ju Seol-ha’s brow furrowed deeply as she checked the debris that could be described as minute remaining in the sink and trash can.

In her eyes, the most recent thing made in this kitchen was a salad.

“Specifically, chicken salad. It’s also nutritionally balanced with beans and fruits.”

Of course, men can eat salad and fruit too. In Lee Sun-woo’s case, he is in such good shape that he can rival any celebrity, even though he is mostly at home, whether he does home training or not.

So, it was safe to assume that this was something Lee Seon-woo had made for himself to eat. However, he couldn’t suppress the unpleasant feeling he had.

“No way.”

She remembered something and ran out of the kitchen and up to the second floor. The first thing she went to was the bathroom. There was something she had to check.

“Ugh!”

The moment I entered the bathroom, I covered my nose. The smell that lingered there was not my own, but that of another woman.

For Ju Seol-ha, it wouldn’t have been this bad even if there had been excrement in the middle of the toilet.

“Even the scent of perfume and cosmetics. They are all high-end.”

Although the conclusion was already made, I came out of the bathroom where I was staying and rushed into the bedroom to check one last time.

The conclusion came as soon as I opened the door.

“Ha.Ha.Ha.”

He smiled like a famous clown from a movie, but the smile was not at all motivated by positive emotions.

If I had to put it into words, I would say it was a smile that came out when one had surpassed the limit of emotions that one could handle.

Needless to say, the name of that emotion is anger.

“Where could he be? Where the hell is my brother right now and what kind of motherfucker is he hanging out with?”

Joo Seol-ha immediately took his phone out of his pocket and inputted the number that immediately came to mind. Of course, the call log showed the number and the person he didn’t know showed up on the message, but Joo Seol-ha ignored it and saved it.

Then I made a phone call.

“Not receiving.”

Sent a message.

“Did you see it?”

He waited for the reply that was given with a smirk. He never rushed. To put it in extreme terms, he didn’t care whether Lee Seon-woo remembered him or not.

“You’re mine anyway.”

If you remember, you will give her an appropriate punishment for cheating and then hug her warmly again.

If you don’t remember, you can either remind yourself or start over.

I had no intention of letting it go for the rest of my life, so I was happily imagining various possibilities in mind, thinking that it would all end up being the same.

I got a call from Lee Seon-woo.

“You’re brave, brother.”

I picked up the phone, my heart pounding with excitement, wondering what he would say.

“Hello. Is this Seonwoo?”

But what Lee Seon-woo said next was something that even Joo Seol-ha could not have expected.

[… … Hey, this might sound crazy, but I have a question for you. Excuse me, are you by any chance my girlfriend…?]

‘?’

“… … … Huh?”

—

The silver lining was that you could change your girlfriend during the event.

Unfortunately, we had no choice but to change our plans because an unexpected situation arose.

“Yejin-ah. Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom for a minute.”

“Yeah. I’ll start the engine, so go ahead.”

After leaving the waiting room and walking to the parking lot with Yejin, I suddenly made an excuse that I needed to go to the bathroom, so I went back into the building alone and immediately restarted the app to change my girlfriend.

Then, Yejin drove off alone in an instant. Because she changed girlfriends, she forgot about me and it became like I never had a boyfriend.

This is something I confirmed when I first changed my girlfriend.

“But why is he like this?”

Is there an error in the app?

After having sex with Yein, I noticed Seol-ha’s strangely high affection level, so I did everything I could in the short time I had.

If you change your original girlfriend, your previous girlfriend’s possession will be frozen. It would be normal for her not to meet other men, forget about my existence, and her favorability rating to stop fluctuating.

“So this is an abnormal situation.”

No matter how many times I turned it off and on, it was the same, and I even touched the breakup button despite the overwhelming regret, but nothing worked on Seol-ha.

“Even in my house right now.”

If my memory serves me right, Seol-ha never came to my house after I moved. She had left it in the lobby before.

I gave you the address, but did you come here thinking of it?

“Anyway, I don’t have much time.”

I didn’t know what he would do if I left him alone any longer.

Seol-ha’s true feelings, which were visible in the lobby, were currently at their worst. She was furious when she realized that I was spending time with another woman and not her.

Still, it’s a mystery why my favorability rating doesn’t go down, but I decided to leave that for now as a future issue.

My head was spinning so much that I wondered if I had ever been this focused in my life. First, I went into the evaluation point shop for this event through the app.

“You can exchange it for money, but that’s okay for now.”

I quickly flipped through the list and was able to find what I wanted. What I found was the talent for acting. I used 1000 points and bought it without hesitation.

Then I immediately called Seol-ha and said.

“… … Hey, this might sound crazy, but I have a question for you. Hey, are you by any chance my girlfriend…?”

[………ah?]

The third option I chose was one that neither showed that I remembered nor pretended not to remember.

I also took the stance that I had an idea on and off.

[Uh uh… … Yes. I am Joo Seol-ha, my brother’s girlfriend.]

“What are you going to do?… …What are you going to do?”

As I say, it was a perfect performance that was really real. Although it may be self-praise, I thought it was a stroke of genius that it bought my acting talent.

That would be the case, since Seol-ha would have caught even the slightest shaking without missing it.

“Snow ha, it really is snow ha. What on earth is going on… … ”

[I don’t know either. Let’s meet up first. Let’s meet up and talk.]

“Oh, yeah. I guess so. Where should we go?”

[I’m at my brother’s house right now.]

You have no intention of hiding it at all.

“Okay. Then I’ll be right back.”

[yes.]

As soon as I hung up the phone, I let out a heavy sigh at the thought that I had let go of a worry.

I looked at the app screen just in case, but there was no sign that Seol-ha had noticed.

“Okay. Then let’s go.”

I was a bit hesitant for a moment, but since it had come to this, I decided to enjoy the precarious tightrope-walking situation.

At this point, choosing Seol-ha is easy. However, in that case, it would be impossible to even dream of holding another woman.

I can’t do that. I know it’s crazy, but I’m going to hug Seol-ha and continue to hug other women.

There is also the reason why I became addicted to it because I had already experienced the crazy pleasure once.

“If I make a choice like that, I feel like the story of my existence will end right away.”

That much was certain.

I immediately called a taxi and headed home. I read Seol-ha’s inner thoughts while I was going, but there was no significant change.

“No, shouldn’t there be a change?”

“Yes? Sir, did you say something?”

“Oh, no. I was talking to myself. Sorry.”

I apologized to the taxi driver and looked down again at the lobby screen of the app that was appearing on my phone.

There, Seol-ha was making a cleaning motion.

[I have to erase all traces of the other woman before my brother comes♡ But I’m glad that we’re not living together♡]

How mentally strong is this guy? Or is it that he turns around and looks normal?

[Exciting♡ Exciting exciting♡]

Seol-ha moved busily here and there, muttering an unidentifiable tune. Judging from her movements, it seemed like she was putting all the blankets that Ye-in and I had slept under into the washing machine and turning them on.

Not only that, it seemed like I was throwing something away, but I don’t know what. That’s strange. I usually live a clean life, so I don’t think I have anything to throw away.

“Can I put it here?”

“Yes, thank you.”

I turned off my phone and got out of the taxi. I took another deep breath. I don’t know why I have to take a deep breath when I’m going into my own house, but I caught my breath anyway.

When I felt I had calmed down enough, I opened the door and went into the house.

“Ah, oppa, you’re here?♡”

As soon as I entered, Seol-ha, holding a kitchen knife, ran up to me and greeted me.
