I bought a bunch of clothes. Thanks to Minhee, I was able to choose them easily, but I remember going around the department store to choose those clothes, getting exhausted, eating, and coming home and collapsing.

I woke up dazed and got up, and it was already morning, as the morning sunlight streamed in through the closed curtains and illuminated the room.

Haam, he yawned.

I was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt when I slept, but I felt like I was wearing long-sleeved pajamas with sleeves instead of a short-sleeved T-shirt.

By the way, I bought the same pajamas I wore to bed yesterday.

I woke up from a half-asleep state after washing my face with water and stretched out my hand.

And then I put my hand on Min-hee’s forehead, who was curled up next to me and sleeping. I pushed away the hair that covered her face and quietly looked into her eyes, which were obscured and hard to see.

Even though her eyes were closed, I thought she was pretty.

It was a feeling I felt over and over again every time I saw her.

Compared to that, I wondered if I was even a good match for her.

I don’t know if it’s low self-esteem or if it’s a legitimate question to have. But if you ask Minhee, he’ll probably say the former.

He smiled bitterly.

Still, since I was happy now, everything was fine.

I had a place to return to, and there was someone there to welcome me.

Moreover, he was the kind of person who would walk with you wherever you went without being afraid, so no one would be jealous of him.

I felt like I had the whole world, because she was my world.

I thought to myself over and over again that I liked you.

It was so comfortable that I forgot about it for a moment, but even so, the feeling never went away.

It was nice to have you by my side, and I thought it would continue to be nice because I felt like you would be there for me.

So I tilted my head and carefully placed my lips on her forehead.

Since coming into this world, we have seen each other’s naked bodies, but I remember that we have never shown affection like this because we were busy trying to heal what was hurting.

After kissing her lightly like that, my eyes met with Min-hee’s, who opened her eyes like a princess who had been kissed.

When you wake up, don’t your eyes usually get blurry?

The eyes that I thought were half-asleep were looking at me clearly, and I felt embarrassed.

Embarrassed, I stretched and threw off the blanket, pretending I had done nothing to cover up the awkward situation.

After that, I got up from bed as if nothing had happened.

Until a few days ago, I couldn’t even walk properly or wash myself, but now I feel free enough to get up and walk on my own.

I had nowhere to go after waking up this early, so now that I was up, I just had to decide where to go as I left the room.

After a moment of thought, I went into the small bathroom in my room to do my business, washed my face, and dried it with a towel.

The moment I came out of the bathroom, thinking it was the start of a refreshing morning, Minhee, who had been watching me with her eyes open until just now, was standing in front of me, quietly looking at me.

“… What is it?”

And my body trembled at the sound of that quietly ringing voice.

I thought my body was slowly getting better, so I felt more relaxed, and I did that yesterday and the day before because I felt grateful.

And also, before we returned to our original bodies, we said we loved each other and that we would die without each other, so I thought this kind of behavior was natural.

From the beginning, I thought that I might die without Min-hee, and it seemed like I would die without a doubt, so my thoughts haven’t changed even now.

So perhaps the feeling of love and the desperation to cling were clearly present in places that could not be seen.

But when I actually kissed her on the forehead, what I was faced with was Minhee looking down at me with a murderous expression.

“That… I just like it… ”

If only I had grown taller, I wouldn’t be so overwhelmed.

I barely managed to get the reason out of my mouth while sweating profusely. I felt like going back to the bathroom and washing my face over and over again.

There was a brief silence and it felt like Minhee was growling.

“… I’m also taking note.”

The moment I interpreted the meaning of those words, I knew that he wasn’t making that face because he didn’t like me.

But I was still scared.

When I asked myself, “What do you mean, ‘reference’?”, I easily gave myself an answer.

To be honest, if I had approached him with the thought that we had completely opposite bodies, it would have been a big problem.

Of course, that memory is like a dream, it was just something like that. We remember that. Even though it is a feeling of level, it is still a fact that Minhee felt the pleasure of a man and I felt the pleasure of a woman.

So, I thought that if I approached it with that kind of memory, there would definitely be problems.

In the meantime, there was a moment of estrangement, and I was afraid that we would both be ruined, so Min-hee’s words, “I’m holding on,” came across as quite scary.

After swallowing hard, I smiled bitterly in an attempt to convince her.

“… Sister, you know it’s different than when I was in Kylon…?”

“I know.”

“This is reality now, with nowhere to go… you know that right?”

“I know.”

Oh, that’s pretty firm.

He answered as if he already knew everything and was already prepared for it, so I had nothing more to say.

I couldn’t think of anything to say to Min-hee, so I thought about it for a while and then opened my mouth.

“… If you know, that’s fine.”

Those were really bitter words.

I thought it was really stupid of me to just say, “Oh, okay,” and let it go when Min-hee replied that she knew everything after saying something like there was something.

As I was hanging my head like that, Minhee grabbed my chin by the hand and dragged me to the bed.

It only took a few steps from the bathroom in the room to the bed.

The moment I heard footsteps, tuck, tuck, tuck, my body fell back onto the bed.

And then Minhee came over and covered him.

“What happened?”

“… … .”

When I actually found myself in this situation, I was at a loss as to how to resolve it.

I answered Minhee’s question with silence and glanced away from her eyes.

“… No, that, it’s just… I was wondering if it’s because of memories from when I was at Kylon… ”

“No. I just can’t stand it because I like you.”

When I brought up my concerns, Minhee immediately shook her head and denied them.

I couldn’t help but open my eyes wide at those words.

When I turned my stiff head and looked at Minhee’s gaze, Minhee smirked. The corners of my mouth were twitching, but my eyes didn’t seem to be doing so.

It seemed like she was going to cry, and she also felt like she wanted to laugh. But she couldn’t quite decide what emotion it was, and her face just seemed to distort.

And in between, her words continued.

“Because you were sick… Because you were really sick, I wanted to be considerate. I held back. But if you go overboard like this, I… ”

Minhee has never touched me before.

Of course, he touched it when I was washing it, but even then, he just washed it, and when he saw my menstrual cycle, he hesitated for a moment before looking away and focusing on washing it.

I’ve never touched her sexually.

Because I’m sick, and I need to get better.

My body had been damaged for a long time because I couldn’t eat properly and kept putting spoiled food in my mouth. I had to have my stomach cleaned.

Also, because my nutrition intake was not balanced, I didn’t grow tall, my hair fell out, and my muscles shrank as I lost the fat I needed to burn.

Min-hee often worried about the doctor’s words that her bone density had decreased due to her weakening and that she was close to osteoporosis.

Perhaps it is Min-hee, not me, who listens to and remembers every word the doctor says.

I was worried about my body, which had to live with bruises for days on end because they didn’t heal properly. I felt like memories of Min-hee, who never touched me easily, were flashing through my mind like a panorama.

It’s okay now though.

I was able to stand up by myself, eat, and wash.

Of course, I’m comfortable because I have Min-hee, who doesn’t let me do things alone even though I could do them myself.

As I looked at Minhee’s face, which seemed to be on the verge of tears, I smiled because I felt like I was going to cry too.

“It’s okay.”

“… What.”

“Now, it’s really okay.”

I wanted to ask, wasn’t this what it was supposed to be between us?

Now that my body is back, I wanted to ask if this is okay.

So I smiled at Minhee, who didn’t even know what was okay.

“I also liked you, so I couldn’t bear it. … So, you don’t have to bear it either.”

As he said that, Minhee opened her eyes and looked at me quietly, then made a tearful expression.

And without saying anything else, I nodded and closed my eyes. I did not avoid the face that was slowly approaching, but accepted it with my lips.

This was probably my first kiss with this body.

Minhee’s heart, who took good care of me so that I wouldn’t get sick, and tried not to touch me because I was sick, came close.

I feel sorry and grateful because I think you’ve been enduring it all this time because of me, so I’m even more desperate.

She pursed her lips slightly.

We touched tongues again.

He licked his tongue so much that it seemed like he was clinging to his partner.

They explored each other’s mouths and coveted each other’s.

We kissed each other several times in bed after waking up in the morning, something I had not been able to do because I was sick.

More than ten minutes passed like that.

I was surprised because I didn’t know that I could spend ten minutes just kissing.

Ah, I let out a sigh, and a heavy breath came out behind me.

I think I held it in for a minute when we first kissed, but as we continued, I could feel my breathing getting harder and the time we could kiss getting shorter.

They looked at each other with longing eyes.

Minhee looked at it for a while and then opened her mouth.

“… Today, I went to the hair salon… I’m going home to take a nap… and then I’m going to eat.”

There was Minhee talking about today’s work, and I nodded to her.

I smiled as I looked at Minhee’s reddened ears.

Then, there was Minhee, who hugged me as if she was crushing my body.

I spent another hour tied to the bed, held like a doll.

Minhee hugged me from behind and whispered.

“From today, I won’t tolerate it… ”

For some reason, those words sounded like a declaration of war to me.
