A table in front of the gym locker room. Although there were only a few, Seo Ye-rin was looking down at her cell phone with her legs crossed in a place prepared to wait for the group to come out.

And the one who is massaging Seo Ye-rin’s shoulder while peeking at her cell phone screen right behind her.

It was me.

“Which one would be better?”

Seo Ye-rin is tapping her cell phone rapidly while prolonging her afterword like an old lady in some drama.

Since I was the one buying dinner tonight, I was in the process of deciding on her store.

“What about President Kim? “Do you want to eat something?”

Seo Ye-rin asks, turning her head slightly to look up at me. Even though it was an obvious trap, I answered with a fake smile.

“Ugh! “If Chairman Seo wants to eat anything, I’m fine with it.”

“Oh my, is that so?”

In the end, I’m the one paying the money.

If you make Seo Ye-rin uncomfortable here, her wallet may be in jeopardy.

“How about steak?”

“Wouldn’t it be a bit heavy?”

“pizza?”

“If we’re going to eat the sheep’s food, we should eat our own green onion pancakes.”

“… … pasta.”

“How about banquet noodles?”

“Choobap.”

“If you want to eat that, just have some hot braised mackerel…” … !”

“You can’t do it.”

As I was answering, I unconsciously began to show a lot of selfishness, and I guess I didn’t like that.

“Iseo, what do you like?”

Choi Yi-seo, who was watching our conversation next to her with her legs crossed, sighed and answered.

“Since I exercised, I don’t think it would be a good idea to eat something that would make me gain weight.”

If it were Choi Yi-seo, she would probably ask us to go cut some grass and eat. Although grass-fed meat has become more expensive recently, it is still lighter than meat such as steak.

“Let’s go eat steak to replenish protein.”

“There’s a human being nearby! Let’s eat there!”

person? Isn’t it out?

Well anyway.

“no! for a moment! You don’t get to buy a steak just because you lost once in a race! “Someone uses steak to supplement their protein!”

When I shout out loud, Seo Ye-rin glares at me.

“Then you shouldn’t have cheated. “If I had won fair and square, I would have just eaten whatever was cheap.”

“But I’m being punished because I’m acting like a mothball to win.”

Choi Yi-seo shrugs and adds. Because I had nothing to say, I ended up being dragged to the steakhouse like a cow to the slaughterhouse.

“I’ll buy the salad bar.”

Seo Ye-rin, as if she had any conscience at all, offered to buy a salad bar.

“Don’t worry, I’ll buy it for myself.”

Choi Yi-seo is also next to her, patting her on the back and telling her not to worry.

“That’s it, these.”

Once you’ve drawn a card, shouldn’t you act like a man? She stepped forward curiously and said no.

“It’s okay to spend this much. “It’s not like living a life of such poverty.”

“Oh oh.”

“Hmm.”

The two people clapped quietly while looking at me. Anyway, we all sat down at the table and tried to choose and order food.

“ah… … .”

Her familiar face greeted us.

Han Kang, a second-year student, came to take our order, dressed as a part-time worker.

“Oh, hello.”

Seo Ye-rin greeted awkwardly.

“Did you work here?”

Choi Yi-seo spoke to Han Kang skillfully and naturally.

“…….”

Of course, I just kept my mouth shut, because even though we had been drinking together before, the awkwardness hadn’t gone away yet.

“Uh, yes. “The midterm exams are probably over, but they started recently.”

“Ah, I see. I’d like to order.”

Since Seo Ye-rin and I were uncomfortable, Choi Yi-seo took the initiative to talk to her and even finished ordering, sending the senior away cleanly.

She is also quick-witted and good at her work.

“Are you very uncomfortable?”

She seemed quite worried as she came out and asked Yerin.

“I don’t really care. “Because I’m not the type of person to care about what anyone thinks in the first place.”

At first, I was just a little embarrassed, but I had no intention of eating while watching what my senior thought.

But Seo Ye-rin looked a little different.

“Ugh, boo, that’s uncomfortable.”

“What happened the last time we drank together?”

Seo Ye-rin seems to be more uncomfortable than she was then. Judging by the dark expression on her face, it seems like some kind of conversation took place at that time.

She said, “I was going to the bathroom and a senior followed me and confessed that he liked me.”

“wow.”

I let out an exclamation of exclamation without realizing it. Of course, because Choi Yi-seo glared at her, she immediately shut her mouth.

But is she looking at this? If she got a confession, shouldn’t she just congratulate her?

“She clearly refused to say sorry! Ha, but you still asked me to keep thinking about it… … .”

“Because you did it?”

“Well, I’ll wait, so I told you to tell me if you change your mind.”

“aha.”

So, doesn’t that mean that even though she has refused to confess, she is still waiting on the other side, which is a sad situation in its own way?

Since Seo Ye-rin is definitely at the level, even people like Han Kang take a number and wait.

Although he wasn’t at the level of Jung Chan-woo, which made people say, “He’s so damn handsome,” senior Han Kang was also said to be a male god in his department, and the girls looked up to him.

As she thought about that, she realized that I was having a really great time.

Not only Seo Ye-rin but also Choi Yi-seo.

It was the same in the PC room, it was the same in the gym, and it is the same here now.

Eyes were pouring in from all over the place to look at the two women, and envy and jealousy, or criticism and comparison, were clearly pouring out towards me.

I actually saw someone making fun of me and asking why a guy like me was with these two people.

“You’ve been through a lot.”

As Choi Yi-seo was next to her, patting her on the shoulder and expressing concern, Seo Ye-rin seemed to feel at ease in her own way.

“But don’t be too dismissive.”

So I said something.

The two people looked slightly embarrassed, as if they didn’t expect such a story to come out of my mouth.

In my own way, I was saying this for Seo Ye-rin.

“Objectively speaking, I don’t think Han Kang is a bad guy.”

People around him say he has good manners, and he doesn’t find it difficult to get along with people.

It is rumored that he had a lot of money, and he was also good-looking.

To be honest, I thought it was quite rare to see an opponent in these conditions.

“The downside is that it’s a bit revealing to women… … Well, that won’t be a problem for you.”

If you’re dating Seo Ye-rin, would another woman catch your eye? She probably doesn’t want Seo Ye-rin to get out of sight, so she’ll just get rid of it.

“You’ve never had any romantic experience before. “Even though it feels like experimenting with someone else’s emotions, it’s not a bad idea to experience it at least once.”

Why don’t adults tell us to experience things that can only be experienced at this age?

This was the point right on the borderline between responsibility and pleasure. Just because you’re dating doesn’t mean you have to get married, and you can maintain the freshness you had when you were a student.

There is a type of love that can only be found at this time of year.

“…….”

Seo Ye-rin’s expression became a little darker at my words. She was looking at me with her resentful expression and I wondered if she had said something wrong.

After hearing the whole story, Iseo Choi seemed a bit surprised by my opinion.

“You really looked at it objectively?”

“yes?”

It must be surprising that I, who had a direct conflict with senior Han Kang and was even sniped at in my department because of it, am saying this.

Choi Yi-seo, who was holding her chin, smiled slightly and asked additional questions.

“Then what if, on the contrary, you tell me from a subjective yet self-interested point of view?”

“then… … .”

The two women’s eyes were focused on me.

In particular, I felt something strange about Seo Ye-rin looking at me with her anxious eyes.

She answers honestly anyway.

“I should tell you to fuck off.”

“Foot.”

Seo Ye-rin is finally smiling.

“Stop acting so foolish and go to the military.”

“Ah, Woojin will have to go to the military too.”

“right. when?”

“… … “Why are you hitting me all of a sudden?”

Surely you weren’t having fun talking behind senior Han Kang’s back?

Why am I suddenly sick?

“I’ll write you a letter when I go, Woojin.”

“I heard you can even use a cell phone these days? “Can’t you reply if I text you?”

“Why do I feel sick even though I haven’t eaten anything yet?”

Wow, that’s strange.

Why did the story suddenly come like this?

“beret! I want to try a beret! “Rent it out later when you go on vacation!”

“Can you send me a package or something? “If you need anything, let me know.”

“I’m still a civilian, you bitches.”

Why are you treating me like I’m already going to the military?

The two people laughed and flirted, saying it was a joke, and in the meantime, the menu we ordered came out.

I should have gone to the salad bar, but I couldn’t because I was too absorbed in the conversation.

Senior Han Kang came to serve us, and we were talking about the military again.

“But won’t there be unification next year?”

“Yes, even if unification occurs, you have to go.”

“Loyalty! Private Kim Woo-jin!”

“… … “The steak came out.”

Senior Han Kang intervened, but we were absorbed in our own conversation.

I also felt like I was intentionally showing off to my senior.

“Woojin, I’ll go visit you with all your friends. “There are a lot of pretty girls among my friends.”

“If it includes Yoo Ah-rin, I will decline.”

“Arin is pretty too.”

The voice is a bit unique, and the fruity scent gives it a lively charm.

“Tomahawk steak… … .”

“Yes, me.”

I immediately take the steak and we continue talking. Because senior Han Kang was there, I was just blurting out whatever I wanted to say.

‘This senior is really harsh too.’

The service is slow, as if how big his feelings for Seo Ye-rin are.

Moreover, she was looking at Seo Ye-rin clearly, and I wondered if this was the approach of a handsome man.

How on earth does she know how good she is that she acts like that?

If I had done it, I would have immediately looked down on him and scolded him.

“Ah, Arin! “Did you know she used to be a Taekwondo player?”

And Seo Ye-rin, who receives such attention, continues to spit out loud words, like a clown pouring balloons out of her mouth.

“Taekwondo player?”

This is my first time hearing this.

“huh! Taekwondo player! There used to be a lot of talk about him being a promising star! “I entered the competition and won a prize!”

“Oh, I see.”

For some reason, my legs were stretched out beautifully.

“So flexible! “He made easy moves that I couldn’t do!”

“It sure looked flexible.”

Just by looking at it, I could feel that the child was flexible. It was like that in his gestures and actions, and the last time he came to my house and pounded my back with his leg.

“Mo, you have a great body! I have muscles too! Ah, but overall, the body is soft, so it feels good to hold it!”

“Well, it’s soft.”

My heart was so soft.

“…….”

I was answering hesitantly, thinking about how to eat the tomahawk steak, but then I slowly looked up and thought about what I had just said.

Seo Ye-rin spoke and Choi Yi-seo listened quietly next to her.

And even senior Han Kang who served us.

Everyone was looking at me with surprised eyes.

“Hmm, I said it in a way that could be misunderstood.”

If you stay here, it will be over.

I calmly let go of the fork and knife I was holding and said, pretending it was nothing.

“So what I just said… … .”

I am also a master of improvisation.

I have experience making excuses for various reasons while being harassed by my ex-girlfriend, so I am good at speaking in these situations.

What I want to say now.

What I have to say is… … .

therefore.

Ugh!

The cell phone rang just then.

I glanced at the screen and there was a chat from Yoo Ah-rin.

Yoo Ah-rin: Save me! The bamboo forest will explode!

“Fuck.”

Yoo Ah-rin is a bitch.

Save me first.
