As soon as Se-yeon arrived at the store, she immediately noticed that Jin-hyeon’s condition was different than usual.

“Hello!”

He entered with a cheerful greeting, but he still didn’t even glance at him.

Se-yeon felt a chilling pleasure at that sight.

That arrogant attitude that doesn’t even consider myself.

As expected, he is different from other men.

Jin-Hyeon was someone who was considered rude even when compared to simple idiots who would fall for something like a word and a smile.

But today something was different.

He doesn’t even pay attention to people coming in behind him.

He is as sensitive to people as I am to myself, but he doesn’t care about others?

Even when Ha-yeon greeted him, he only nodded slightly.

Now that I think about it, there seems to be more strength in that mask-like smile than usual.

It didn’t seem like there was any force involved. It was definitely there.

There was absolutely no doubt that there was something strange about Jinhyeon’s daily life that Seyun had been watching.

He is proud to say that no one knows Jinhyeon better than he does.

Also, the overall behavior is a bit stiffer than last week.

Se-yeon, who had experienced and observed countless people, could tell right away.

That’s because it took effort to correct one’s own conduct.

And usually in these cases,

“Jinhyeon, you look a little sick today?”

I couldn’t just pass him by, so I went over and placed my hand on his forehead.

When his hand touched her trembling forehead, goosebumps appeared.

I took a deep breath and held it without realizing it.

If she let out a soft sigh, warmed by her own body temperature, she felt like Jinhyeon would notice her feelings.

No, it’s not cooked properly yet.

Fortunately, it only touched slightly, but Jinhyeon quickly took a step back and got away from him.

Good posture.

I liked his attitude of not giving up easily.

Whether it was the distance between bodies or hearts, for Se-yeon, it only fanned the flames of her secret desires.

“I’m just a little tired.”

This kindness that reluctantly answers without completely rejecting it.

It’s just right.

It seemed like it would be thorough, but I liked the subtle loopholes that were visible.

The fact that he is not someone you can overlook at all.

This man is so close to being within reach, but never gives you any room for decisive action.

These days, Se-yeon has been getting a lot of attention.

This is not the first time.

Even when I was a college student, I was interested in Jinhyeon.

At that time, both he and I were young and immature.

I think that the meeting between him, who wants affection but can’t do anything for fear of becoming a nuisance, and me, who wants affection but doesn’t want to get it easily, was a fate woven by chance.

Although they share the same origins, he treats people differently and is like a very fun toy.

So I tried to take him out to play, but surprisingly he couldn’t dig in.

I couldn’t find out the contact information other than the KakaoTalk profile in the group chat.

They are very kind and considerate to those in front of them, but they never show that warmth again unless they meet each other face to face.

On the other hand, Seyun took the exact opposite route.

No matter who my opponent was, whether they were young kids who had just entered college and were acting awkwardly or seniors who had returned to school and were approaching me with aplomb, I accepted them all.

He always made their hearts flutter, and when he wanted to eat, he ate, and when he wanted to drink, he drank.

But that’s it.

They wanted their bodies and minds as if it were a given.

Then, from then on, Se-yeon drew a line between them.

Oh, that’s not fun.

Men who are obsessed with themselves are not the same.

My self-esteem didn’t rise with these kinds of men.

It just makes me feel bad.

But Jinhyeon is different.

When I first met him in college, I wasn’t interested in him because he seemed to have a tendency to like people.

However, I was curious about the way he kept a certain distance himself and maintained that distance perfectly while wanting to approach her.

I even tried approaching it on purpose.

I didn’t hate it, but was embarrassed, so I cooled down quickly.

But there has been no contact since then.

Unlike men who somehow find out her number and contact her separately without her giving it to them first, Jinhyeon did not approach her.

I thought he was a loner, but even though he was awkward with people, his work skills were extraordinary.

A person who is not virtuous but is good at work, so people only look for him when needed. That was Jinhyeon’s position during his college days.

The embers that had died down burned even stronger, and Se-yeon whetted her appetite, trying to add seasoning to it to make it more appetizing.

But I didn’t know it would turn into something like this.

It was a pity.

The guy didn’t notice Jinhyeon’s charm and just made a face.

It seems that Se-yeon was the only one who recognized his true worth.

There’s nothing I can do.

Even if you’re a college student, when you go out into society you’re just a youngest student who doesn’t know anything.

And he thinks he was young too.

Because of that, Jinhyeon was forced to quickly recover and escape to the military.

And because of her usual behavior and the aftermath of that incident, Se-yeon was unable to fit in with the girls’ group.

I took a leave of absence without any regrets.

I was no longer interested in places where there were only children.

But I still had to earn money, so I worked at several part-time jobs.

I’ve worked at a PC room, a restaurant, and even scanned barcodes at the bus stop.

Wherever she went, men would approach her and chatter about her looks.

There were many people I liked.

There were always people better than you everywhere.

But the moment I started hanging on to Seyun, it became petty.

After working at various part-time jobs like that, she finally settled down at this izakaya, and an alpha male named Yoon Kang showed interest in her.

Not bad, at least to this extent.

While we were dating, Jinhyeon was hired as a kitchen assistant at this restaurant, as if it were a lie.

With his face slimmed down and his body plump, he didn’t approach people like he used to.

That arrogance of not caring whether you come or not, doing everything possible to avoid being caught by yourself.

You’ve grown up.

Seyun’s heart pounded.

But still, I decided that Yoon Kang was better, so I gave it some room and focused on that.

The result was a huge disappointment.

I was really annoyed by that guy who called me out without warning at a place we all went out to play, confessed to me without me even hearing anything, and then left without even waiting for an answer.

When I denied it with a serious face because they were treating me like a couple after saying something to other people, I felt a thrill at the atmosphere that had suddenly become tense.

After that, I didn’t even want to think about how sticky it was.

Yeah, now I’m sure Jinhyeon is the right person for me.

Sorry, I’m late, but I’ll make sure to give you more attention.

So, a sticky farce unfolded between Yoon Kang and Se Yeon, and between Se Yeon and Jin Hyeon.

The closer he gets, the more Jinhyeon moves away.

If you dig deeper without any sense, breaking through the smile that doesn’t even give off a human touch, that same expressionless face will come out.

Every time I saw that expression, my lower body would shiver.

I almost collapsed, my legs giving out from the pleasure.

Cool, the son of a rich family, a handsome man who could put actors to shame, a kind man – all of them have become petty guys who only crave Se-yeon’s attention, but not Jin-hyeon.

It’s the same today.

He kept talking to me so persistently that I didn’t even pay attention to him while I was working, and in the end I didn’t even answer.

Se-yeon, who got excited without realizing it, tried to do more, but ended up getting scolded by Jong-hyun, telling her to focus on work.

Although she was ignored and scolded, Se-yeon’s heart was swelling uncontrollably.

It’s really ideal.

The more I look at him, the more I like him.

When and where on earth will I ever meet a man like this?

It was definitely not a coincidence that we met twice, at university and at my part-time job.

The interest that had been gradually growing stronger was now approaching pleasure accompanied by passion.

But unfortunately for her, Jinhyeon was in a rough state.

“Jinhyun oppa, weren’t you a little cold today? I think it was especially so with you, sister.”

Taking advantage of the brief moment of leisure, Ha-yeon whispered to me.

Our Hayeon, I know she’s cute, but she’s still innocent.

“Jinhyun is like that originally, but when we meet one-on-one, he’s really warm?”

“Oh, that’s right. It’s surprisingly serious.”

“If you have any concerns, he’s the type to give you sincere advice.”

“I think so. Actually, I’ve been having a lot of worries lately….”

Se-yeon tries to use this innocence as seasoning.

When these children start liking something first, they get stuck in a swamp and can’t get out.

“Really? Then I’ll save you today, so let’s talk on the way home from work?”

“Hey, that guy isn’t even looking for a job.”

“Still, it’s strangely comfortable?”

“Um…”

Unless you are directly employed somewhere, you have to solve your own problems.

All we need are some warm moments that will make us forget our worries, even if just for a moment.

Seyun smiled brightly at Hayeon, who was hesitating.

“Just try it.”

Ah, please, I hope this seasoning doesn’t go bad… Se-yeon’s heart was getting restless.
