After finishing the college entrance exam and starting to live together with Suyeon, I was even busier.

After returning home after finishing the 3rd period, I worked for a couple of hours during the busiest time at a cafe where I could only work briefly during lunch hours to earn a little money.

There were so many companies near the subway station that the nearby cafes were bustling during lunch time, so finding a job like this was easy.

After lunch time and work is over, I return home and take a short rest.

I stayed with Soo-yeon and went to work part-time at a convenience store when I had time, and when I finished work at 10 p.m., I returned home together.

When we came home at night, we went to sleep without fail, shaking our bodies.

When I went back to the academy in the morning, I took care of Yuri and Eunji and talked about what to do in the future. On the weekends, Yuri, Eunji, and Yumin, who I rarely saw on weekdays, came to my house and hung out or went out on dates together.

On Fridays, I finally enjoyed the free time I had after working part-time at a lunchtime cafe, spent time with my girlfriends, received consulting from Yumin, and exchanged opinions on how to run my social media.

“Baby, look at this. A self-grading video posted on my Instagram. Do you see a lot of people?”

Yumin then showed me that page.

There was me, Yuri, Suyeon, and Eunji at the time of the tentative scoring.

– Answer number 3 to number 21.

– I’m also number 3.

– uh?!

– what’s the matter?

– Isn’t it number 5 out of 21?

– No… no matter who looks at it, it’s number 3.

– Did you vote for senior number 5?

– I took this picture 3 times too.

– Next, number 4 in number 22.

– uh?!?!

The comments were all over the place laughing and saying ‘lol’ while looking at my foolish behavior.

Most reactions were like, ‘I support them because they say they have to pay the price for their own rehabilitation, but they still can’t study haha.’

Yumin’s Instagram followers already knew that I was in a relationship with Yumin, so there were people who playfully comforted Yumin by saying that it would be difficult to do anything with an ignorant boyfriend, and there were also people who laughed at me.

“Look at this. It has so many views and so many likes. Even though I wasn’t in this video, it’s like this? Well, even if you don’t have to decorate yourself like other celebrities and can only show your daily life, even if you are a beginner, you should still watch it, right?

Anyway, there was the show off of talent during the Jinsu Festival, and you… Honestly, it’s hard to watch, but there was also the case that someone got hit for claiming to pay for their crime, and did you know that the maid cafe video was also spread around a lot? It would be okay if we just told the story behind it. Don’t think too hard.”

“Phew… Thank you, Yumin. I’m not the kind of person who can be cute like you when it comes to things like this, and I was at a loss because I thought doing something like that in this situation would have the opposite effect. If it’s just a matter of solving the story, anything will work out.”

Since it was a bit difficult to turn on the live broadcast right away, I started uploading photos of Suyeon and I taken while living together, and also took couple photos of me and Yuri, me and Eunji, and me and Yumin, and uploaded them consistently.

Thanks to various videos and, crucially, documentary programs, my name was somewhat known to the general public, in a good or bad way, so when I posted a photo, people didn’t stop seeing it.

Well, I guess I came to see my girlfriends who were pictured with me rather than me…

Perhaps because Suyeon is so pretty, the couple photo I took with Suyeon at my house was already viewed by hundreds of people.

Yumin, who had already followed me, saw this and was happy as if it were his own.

“Look at this, look at this! How many hundreds of people have already seen it? Ordinary people who have just started using Instagram can never do this. Hehehe, I’ve followed you and will help you along the way, so don’t worry too much!”

Yumin pats me on the shoulder and Suyeon is happy to see our couple photo posted.

And Yuri and Eunji looked at the scene with sullen expressions.

Yuri, who watched in silence for a moment, seemed to be jealous and sat down next to me, poking out her lips.

“… It’s disgusting.”

“Huh?”

“It’s shameful. I’m your girlfriend too. No, if you think about it, I am his first girlfriend. Su-yeon was the first to live together, and Su-yeon was the first to post photos posted on your SNS. My sister is always there to help you with social media. Annoying.”

“Ah, why are you like that? I told you that there is no such thing as liking someone more and someone less. They are my equally precious girlfriends.”

“But being annoying is annoying.”

Eunji must have been stimulated by Yuri’s words, so she slipped in between Suyeon and me, pushed Suyeon out and took her place.

“Oh, don’t push it, Eunji!”

“You live with Seongjin! Then, in times like this, give in!”

Mr. “…”

Su-yeon, who suddenly lost the seat next to me, but was unable to refute Eun-ji’s words, went to the seat where Eun-ji had just sat and sipped coffee.

Now Yuri, who had pushed her older sister away, and Eunji, who had pushed Suyeon out, were sitting next to me with their arms crossed and looking at me.

“Seongjin, when will we live together? Do you want to look for a house during vacation?”

“Me too! Anyway, now everyone has to live in Seoul when they go to college. Then, can’t we just find a house in Seoul and live together?”

“Of course, I want to do that too… and everyone agreed. But money to buy a house is also an issue, and what should your parents do before that? Yuri Don’t your parents know about our relationship anymore? How does Yumin explain it?”

Then Yuri and Eunji hardened at the same time.

Yuri slowly looked away while scratching her cheek, and I looked straight at her.

” Now that I think about it, you never told me what your parents said? Yuri, what did your parents say after the documentary aired?”

“Well, that’s… It’s a bit of a long story after that…”

Yuri told the story after the day the documentary came out.

#####

“Lee Yuri! People Theater, that documentary, what do they all mean? Your boyfriend is the same guy you saw at the sports day and festival last time, right?!”

Yu-ri Lee’s father got angry and started running around, and her mother also muttered with an absurd expression on her face.

“No, I thought he was a good kid, dependable and polite… Was he that kind of kid? No, I’m reflecting on it now, so even if that’s the case, what about a girlfriend? How many? No, what is my daughter lacking?”

“Mom, Dad. Listen to me…”

And Yuri Lee told her parents about what had happened over the past year.

Nevertheless, Yu-ri Lee’s father was excited because he was a father with a daughter.

“I can’t admit it! Where did that come from… I’m so grateful to have met my daughter, and if that wasn’t enough, how many girlfriends does he have? Such shamelessness… I should chase you to the academy tomorrow and tell you to break up with me-”

“Dad, don’t really do it! If you do something like that, I will never see you again!”

Lee Yu-ri’s father, who was shocked by his daughter’s actions of protecting her boyfriend, opened his mouth in bewilderment.

“You… Yuri, are you… protecting a guy like that? How many girlfriends do you have? Isn’t he a member of the Arab royal family and is doing something like that?!”

“But… I was able to change a lot thanks to Seongjin. Ah, anyway! I can’t say everything! Anyway, I can never break up with Seongjin!”

“Ah… Mom and Dad. And I also have something to say…”

Behind Yu-ri’s stubbornness, her older sister Lee Yu-min also joined the conversation.

And the truth was that he had previously met and dated Han Seong-jin, and that they were now reunited and dating him at the same time.

Upon hearing the news that his two biological daughters had become pillar sisters, the father lost the energy to be angry and went to a pub to have a drink to calm his stomach, while the mother stood in front of the two with an angry expression and admonished them.

“Are you guys out of your mind? I live and live… Oh my, I’m so embarrassed in the neighborhood that I don’t know how I can carry my face. The sisters are dating the girl with the dyed hair who came to study for an exam before, and she’s also dating Eunji? I… oh my heart.”

Yuri’s mother pounded her chest in frustration and sent the sisters back into the room.

I couldn’t come to an agreement with my parents and had an awkward relationship…

A phone call from Yu-ri Lee after the college entrance exam changed the situation.

“Hello?”

– Hello, this is Inspector Yoo Sang-su of xx Police Station. Is this Lee Yu-ri’s cell phone?

“Yes? Police station? I’m right, Lee Yu-ri…”

“What?! Police station!?”

Yuri, who had returned home after third period and had lunch with her family, was startled, and her mother was even more frightened and jumped up.

– Ah yes. It’s none other than I’d like to briefly investigate Yu-ri Lee as a reference…

“Why am I being investigated?! I didn’t do anything wrong!”

“Submit a police investigation? What did my daughter do?! Yuri, give me the phone! Hello, this is Yuri’s mom. who are you? yes? Ah, yes… what kind of investigation is this? yes? Kidnapping and group assault by a teacher?!”

“!!!”

After hearing those words, Lee Yu-ri immediately understood what kind of incident the police had called.

And the same goes for her older sister, Lee Yu-min, who didn’t know it at the time, but later heard the story through everyone.

The sisters looked into each other’s eyes with a drop of cold sweat, and Yu-ri Lee’s mother spoke on the phone with the police, even her voice shaking.

“No, what kind of bastard made my daughter see something like that?! Who is it? Let’s at least know the name! …… yes? Go, Gongyoung…Bae…? No, that can’t be possible… He, he did that?!”
