What do you think is most important when choosing a leader for high school girls?

I think it’s a bit of sociability and good looks. In the first place, as a high school student, there aren’t many standards by which to judge others.

Well, without further ado, let me get to the point.

Oh Hyun-seo, who had been leading a group of girls throughout her three years of high school, maybe even since middle school, was always surrounded by beauties, so even in my eyes she was considered pretty.

Even though people around me weren’t interested in putting on makeup, Oh Hyun-seo was wearing proper makeup, which made me feel that way even more.

“What, what?”

“Sex.”

Sex… what was it?

So, we open the lock with the key and put the baby inside… but we both only have the lock… .

─ Onesama… Aaah… .

As my head spins and I feel overheated, a scene from the AV that Tachibana played at the hotel flashes before my eyes.

Oh Hyun-seo’s face is getting closer and closer. The sound of her screams is ringing in my ears.

“Surprisingly, there are a lot of people who like it.”

Soon, I felt a gentle touch as a hand caressed my collarbone, and my body trembled.

“What do you think? I have debt, so I’ll just do it this time.”

What Oh Hyun-seo does is….

I turned my head to avoid the persistent gaze and saw a flyer buried in a pile of clothes across the bed.

[Rental Friends! All the fateful encounters you want are here!

※However, matching between the opposite sex is not possible.]

It was a flyer I remember seeing on the street one day. No matter how much I needed friends, I would never spend money on them, so I just passed it by.

But judging from Oh Hyun-seo’s words, it seems that she can demand a relationship that is more than just friendship. It seems like the woman who was with Oh Hyun-seo earlier was in a similar situation.

“Hah…?!”

While I was absorbed in the leaflet, I suddenly felt a creepy sensation running from my collarbone to the nape of my neck.

A warm, damp, but not-so-awkward feeling.

“You’re sensitive. Actually, aren’t you experienced?”

A languid voice mixed with heat spread through my ears, and soon a slightly cool hand entered my T-shirt and caressed my side.

“Ugh… Ha, no… .”

“I was just going to tease you for a bit and then stop… .”

I couldn’t feel any strength in my body. Even if I could barely raise my arm, it would only hit Oh Hyun-seo’s shoulder and come down. It wasn’t enough to push away Oh Hyun-seo, who was pressing down on me from above.

“Oh, Oh Hyun-seo… Don’t… .”

“Isn’t that an expression telling you not to do it?”

Fingers crawled up my stomach and dug into the lower band of my sports bra. I turned my head slightly at the breath that was pouring down my neck, and my eyes met the full-length mirror next to the clothes hanger.

Half-open eyes, lips parted as if they were about to drop saliva at any moment. White flesh was revealed under the disheveled T-shirt, and there was no spot on her skin that was not red from the nape of her neck to the tips of her ears.

“It’ll be over soon.”

“I, si, hate… .”

Wooowoong─

The moment Oh Hyun-seo brought her face close to the nape of my neck again, my frozen body relaxed along with the vibration from my pocket.

“… Don’t take it.”

As I fumbled to take out my cell phone, Oh Hyun-seo frowned and grabbed my arm.

It doesn’t move. I don’t know if it’s because my body is completely drained or because I don’t have much physical strength, but the arm that Oh Hyun-seo grabbed didn’t move at all.

“Bar, I have to get it… .”

Instead, tears began to well up in my eyes.

Because I’m scared of situations where I can’t resist, and because I’m sad that things like this happen to me without even knowing why.

Even though I didn’t want to show my weakness, my eyes kept feeling sore.

“… … .”

The tears that had been gathering in my eyes finally flowed down my cheeks, and the pressure that had been pressing down on my arms disappeared.

Taking advantage of that gap, I quickly answered the phone. I didn’t forget to get out of bed and stay far away from Oh Hyun-seo.

“Hello, hello… .”

[Why is your voice like that?]

A blunt voice came from the other end of the phone.

Hannah Yeon, it’s always like that, but she sounded a little angry now.

“Oh, it’s nothing. I guess it’s just a little cold. Why did you call?”

Well, the crying was clearly evident in his voice.

I swallowed a few times to calm my cracked voice, then opened my mouth again and answered as brightly as I could.

[…Your daughter is trying to delete her character data.]

Hanna Yeon, who had been quiet for a while, revealed a shocking fact.

It hasn’t even been 30 minutes since you last spoke with Mirae, and you’re already running out of patience?

“Joe, stop me! I’ll be there soon!”

He stamped his feet and shouted urgently. In fact, in his current mood, he didn’t care what happened to his game character. But if he revealed it, Hanna Yeon would worry.

[Are you sure nothing is wrong?]

“Yeah, no, no. Thanks, Hanna Yeon.”

He shook his head while holding his cell phone.

[…okay.]

Fortunately, I didn’t have to ask her that many times. If I had continued the call, I would have cried because of Hanna Yeon’s kindness.

As I was standing in front of the door after finishing the call, Oh Hyun-seo, who was smoking an electronic cigarette on the bed, looked at me blankly.

“Hanna Yeon… ?”

“Yeah… .”

My body started to tingle at the thought that he would attack me again, but Oh Hyun-seo just snickered and exhaled a puff of smoke.

“I guess we’re still in touch.”

“Yeah… .”

But let’s not let our guard down. If we see any signs of that happening again, open the door and run away.

I slowly back away and look for my shoes. I’m wearing sneakers so I can go out right away.

“Go back.”

As I was retracing my steps and figuring out my escape route, Oh Hyeon-seo waved her hand and fell down on the bed.

The atmosphere changed in an instant.

“That, that… ”

“Get out. If you’re not going to stay.”

As I was hesitating in the hallway, harsh words flew at me.

This situation feels somehow familiar.

I definitely felt the same way the day I first met Oh Hyun-seo.

At first, he approached me kindly, but as soon as he got involved with Hanna Yeon, he changed his attitude and treated me coldly.

It’s the same now. Even though I didn’t like it, he persisted and didn’t show his displeasure as soon as Hanna Yeon’s name was mentioned.

There is an unbridgeable emotional rift between Hanna Yeon and Oh Hyun Seo. Since the same situation was repeated twice, even the most oblivious person could not help but notice it.

“I’ll go… .”

But if I dig into it first on my own, this too will only end up being a nuisance.

Human relationships are more delicate than you think. Don’t dig into them and make them worse.

“Take care not to catch a cold… .”

No answer came back.

Only vapor-like cigarette smoke was flowing out, and he pushed my back, telling me to get out quickly.

* * *

“I’m back… .”

“Late.”

I was coming home, trying to keep my voice as quiet as possible, like a little girl coming home from playing late at night, when I got caught by Mirae, who was sitting on the sofa.

“Sorry, the bus is a little late… .”

Why do I get so tired after just going out? If I had just met Tachibana, it would have been a pretty satisfying day, but after meeting Oh Hyun-seo, my heart has been heavy.

“Oh my god, I’m meeting everyone my mom knows.”

“Yeah, Mom is surprised too.”

I don’t feel like taking a shower or changing clothes.

I headed straight to the sofa with the intention of resting for a bit, but as soon as I sat down, Mirae leaned towards me.

Sniff, sniff.

“Smell of cigarettes… .”

A future where you stick to things to the point of being excessive and checking for smells.

He continues to sniff, even though his face is wrinkled.

Does it smell a lot like cigarette smoke? When I smelled it myself, all I could smell was some kind of tropical fruit.

“… You got bitten again?”

This time, it seems that he didn’t like another part. How on earth am I supposed to find it when it’s covered in hair? Mirae muttered in a low voice while touching the mark where Tachibana had bitten her.

“I clearly warned you… Why do you keep leaving traces on Mom… .”

The light gradually fades from the eyes of the future.

“Mi, the future?”

I woke up to Mirae before it got completely dark, and Mirae lifted me up, sat me on her lap, and started sniffing me in earnest.

“Does Tachibana smoke too?”

“Oh, no! Someone I know spread it out… .”

“Well… .”

Mirae immediately nodded and hugged my stomach, not really thinking that Tachibana was the culprit.

“Another woman’s teeth marks… and even the smell of cigarettes… .”

As Mirae listed the facts one by one, I unconsciously began to think back to see if I had done anything wrong. In fact, what Mirae said wasn’t particularly wrong… .

Rather than that, I was glad that the things that happened at Oh Hyun-seo’s house weren’t discovered. I didn’t know what I was wearing when I was sucked by Tachibana, or what I saw after I came out of the bath. I felt guilty because the things I had to hide from Mirae kept increasing, but I consoled myself that it was better than being found out.

“Mom, are you doing this on purpose?”

“What, what… .”

But the two facts listed above alone seem to have been enough to make the future angry.

“You know I’m worried.”

“That, thank you for worrying about me… but why are you licking it… ugh… .”

Mirae tied my hair up and pushed it over my shoulder, then licked the back of my neck with her lips.

“Marking.”

Marking?

But perhaps because it had happened to him so many times before, it felt completely different from when Oh Hyun-seo did it.

It looked warm rather than delicate, and cute rather than scary.

Even though he carefully lifted his neck, he hesitated several times in case she disliked him.

Somehow, I couldn’t help but laugh at that clumsy tongue.

“You said you wanted to be a daughter at home… .”

I grumbled instead of reject with a voice full of laughter.

“I was like this when I was a daughter?”

But the future was more blatant than I thought.

That’s not even wrong.

Eventually, he was licked until his neck was covered in saliva.
