episode_0047

If you move straight to the right from the beach where people are mostly crowded, you will find a relatively quiet sandy beach.

Leaving the crowded and noisy space, where it felt like I would never be able to find my companions once I fell, gave me a refreshing feeling, as if my stuffy stomach had been emptied out.

“Would you please present your pass?”

As I crossed the red line that marked the border, a large man in a swimsuit who looked like a security guard approached me.

“Yes. Here it is.”

“Yes, it has been confirmed. I hope you have a fun and safe day today.”

When I presented the card I had received in advance, the man bowed his head politely and then walked away.

“…Where are you?”

“A private beach managed separately by the hotel where we are staying. You can use it by paying a small fee.”

This is a so-called premium service exclusively for hotel guests.

Since it was the peak season when a huge number of people flocked, the usage fee was somewhat expensive.

I looked around.

It was clear that the hotel was taking great care in managing it.

The sea water was so clear and transparent that you could see the bottom, and artificially planted trees were arranged nicely here and there.

Aside from us, we also saw a few families who seemed to be guests of the hotel, but since the beach was so wide, it wasn’t much of a concern.

“Here, you can have fun without worrying about what people think. They say they are renting out everything you need for swimming for free, so if you need something like a tube, you can talk to the lifeguard earlier. Does anyone have any questions?”

“…Awesome!”

Yeseul gave me a thumbs up with a respectful look in her eyes.

“How did you come up with this idea? Usually, when I come to a summer resort, I get hit here and there by people and can’t play much.”

“I just wanted to do it comfortably if I was going to play. If Ran is here, there’s no problem, right?”

“…”

Ran, who was still holding my hand tightly, lowered her body and made eye contact, and she smiled brightly and cutely.

“Oppa Oppa! So, can I really come play this time?”

“Yes. Instead, don’t go too far. Instead, take a tube with you because you might fall into the water.”

Hayun, wearing a floral one-piece swimsuit, stamped her feet as if she couldn’t wait any longer and pointed toward the sea, so I nodded.

“I’m good at swimming! Younha, let’s go!”

“Uh, yes. sister. I’ll come back after playing!”

So the twins were the first to run towards the beach.

Seeing them splashing around and playing with each other, I thought it would be okay to leave them alone for a while.

I’ll get the tube later.

“Why is everyone like that?”

Except for the twins, everyone else just hesitated and made no attempt to move.

“Even if I play in the sea, I’m not sure what to do specifically.”

Yuna slowly opened her mouth in a timid voice.

After hearing her question, I felt a little troubled.

“Well, I’m not sure about that either…”

All I was thinking about was how to enjoy the sea comfortably, not how to have fun.

I thought that if I just threw it into the sea, it would vaguely have fun like those twins.

But there was one thing I overlooked.

The people in this house have no experience playing outside with others.

Even at home, we just stay in our rooms and read books or play games. In a way, it can be said that it is a group of friends.

“Then…”

“I have a great idea!”

The moment Sujin, who was looking around at us, opened her mouth, Yeseul raised her hand as if she had been waiting for it.

“Jin, can you help me?”

Then he dragged Jin-ah, who was fine, and whispered something to her.

“How fun would that be?”

“No, I’m a bit…”

“A Don’t take it out like that. let’s do it. Because my brother told me to have fun too. So in things like this, the start is important.”

Jina sighed as she saw Yeseul holding her arm and begging.

“Then it’s a decision, right?”

“Because it only happens once? Even if you hate it, I don’t know.”

“It’s okay. It’s okay.”

Yeseul lightly brushed aside Jin-ah’s worried words and smiled slyly.

After that, he slowly approached me and hugged my left arm tightly.

The feel of Yeseul’s soft bare skin, wearing a refreshing light green bikini, was conveyed.

“Jina too, quickly!”

“…”

Jina approached quietly without saying a word and grabbed the other arm.

Unlike Yeseul, who hugged her tightly, I thought it was more like Jinah to timidly hold on to her arm.

As soon as Jin-ah, whose face was red with embarrassment, finished preparing, Yeseul started running towards the sea.

Naturally, I was caught by her and was half-dragged.

It wasn’t easy to resist if I wanted to, but since I could see what he was thinking, I pretended to accommodate him.

with a plop-!

With the cool sound of water, my body, heated by the summer sun, suddenly became cold.

The body that had sunk below the surface quickly surfaced.

“You were surprised, right?”

“Yes.”

As I got out of the water, Yeseul smiled playfully, so I grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

“Uh, huh?”

with a plop-!

She was caught off guard and disappeared along with the equally refreshing sound of water.

“Uh, so…”

“If I’m the only one enjoying it, I’m sorry again, right?”

with a plop-!

Jina, who panicked and tried to run away, could not avoid the same situation as Yeseul.

“Eight.”

But there were more ambushes.

It was Hayun who was playing with Younha a little while ago.

with a plop-!

Along with the sensation of being pushed on my back by someone, my vision was once again filled with water.

**

‘what…’

Sujin looked blankly at the scene in front of her.

The happy sight of everyone soaking in water and smiling happily.

Yooseong, who was pushed by Hayun and sank into the sea, came out and lifted Hayun up with both hands.

Hayoon, who was struggling on her shoulder, and the people watching had smiles on their faces.

‘…I was going to do it first.’

Sujin had similar thoughts when she saw her brother confused about what to do in the water.

Let’s surprise my brother by making him fall into the water first.

If things had gone according to plan, she would have been the center of the place.

“Sujin?”

Perhaps strange that Sujin was standing still without saying a word, Yuna cautiously called out her name.

Sujin came to her senses after hearing Yuna’s puzzled words.

“Ah, yes. never mind. We shouldn’t stay like this, we should have fun!”

Why am I doing something so lonely?

Isn’t it just that I’ve been scolded once?

The real sea trip had just begun.

‘It’s okay, I have plenty of time.’

I took a deep breath and calmed down my agitated stomach for a moment.

“…over there.”

There was one person who spoke to Sujin.

Chanwoo couldn’t take his eyes off Sujin from the moment he met her on the beach.

Straight limbs, transparent and clear skin, and, crucially, explosive specific areas hidden behind clothes. Han Chae-yeon and Yuna were not small at all, but Soo-jin boasted a size that was one level higher than them.

Her open appearance in a black string bikini was so attractive that any man would drool over her.

Sujin, who was in a very distraught state, didn’t notice at all.

“My name is Son Chan-woo. If you don’t mind…”

He desperately mustered up his courage to win the favor of a beautiful woman who perfectly matched his ideal type.

“Chanwoo.”

However, his actions were also interrupted by Han Chae-yeon’s quiet call.

“I’m going to unpack some things over there. Can you help me?”

“Yes? But…”

“I have too much luggage, so I think it might be a bit heavy for me to move it alone, so please ask me a favor?”

“Yes! Just leave it to me!”

Chan-woo, who was completely taken by Han Chae-yeon’s charming glance, responded vigorously.

“That’s why we’re going to be away for a while, so go play first.”

“Can I help you too?”

“No. Just one person is enough. To begin with, I don’t really like water.”

Han Chae-yeon, who rejected Yu-na’s words with a soft smile, took Son Chan-woo with her and left to find a suitable place.

“…Can I touch the sand?”

“Wouldn’t it be no problem? Ah, but it would be much easier if you had a shovel or something rather than doing it by hand. Would you like to wait here for a moment? I’ll ask the guy over there if he can borrow it.”

Doridori.

“Want to go together?”

Yuna looked momentarily embarrassed at Ran’s gesture.

Was it because he was worried about Sujin, who would be left alone if she left?

“I should try moving too.”

Sujin stretched out her legs and pretended to do gymnastics.

“I’ll just play around on my own, so go and come back.”

“…Then I’ll be right back.”

Even the last remaining ones, Yuna and Ran, left Sujin’s side.

Sujin, who was left alone, stopped doing the gymnastics she was doing and looked at the sea just like before.

All along the reality that no one calls her even though she is not there.
