Chapter 158 – I Thought It Was Raining in the Bathroom.

I lay side by side with Mina on the bed and watched TV. There was a romantic comedy movie that was easy to watch on a small screen for a luxury hotel.

-%&&$#?

_$&*^%$##%^!

Focusing on the subtitles in a language I didn’t understand, I reached out for the bag of cookies that lay between us. There were not only crispy snacks that hadn’t been eaten yet, but also a hand holding a piece of snack on the wide open silver foil vinyl.

“!”

When the soft back of my hand touched my oily fingers, I hurriedly withdrew my arm.

“Sorry.”

“No. Please.”

“Ah, yes. Thank you.”

She removed her hand and allowed me to pick up the cookie and eat it. But it wasn’t the snack bag I was looking at. When the arm of the white coat was lifted, the collar opened slightly, revealing a little bit of the inside.

If I keep looking at it, my instincts in my pants will rise, so I immediately withdraw my gaze. I drank cold beer to soothe my boiling stomach, but after repeating it dozens of times, I gradually got drunk.

“Oh, I’m a little drunk.”

“Is that so? Didn’t you only drink beer?”

“Do you get drunk if you drink too much beer?”

He seems to be getting more and more like the demon king…

Raising her upper body, she put her hand in the plastic bag next to her thigh. I took out the ion drink I had bought for hydration and drank it.

Drunkenness was not the only side effect of drinking a lot of beer. I was slowly urinating.

I just got off the bed. But Minah saw me and raised her upper body.

“Jiheon. Why?”

“Uh? No wait.”

“I will do it. Jiheon, please stay still.”

“What are you doing? Will you help me go to the bathroom?”

She didn’t respond to her joke. Then, while looking the other way, he looked sideways and looked at me.

“I can’t replace you, but… “

I was unknowingly nervous at the unusual appearance.

“Drink,”

“Noisy!”

I hurriedly walked to the bathroom. Mina kept talking about her bullshit to me.

“Are you not going to?”

“Will you! I will not!”

“If it’s in the back, we can even take care of it. Cheer up.”

“Don’t try your best!”

She cried out and went into the bathroom. After closing the door without putting on slippers, I took care of her errands.

When she flushed the water and came back out, she ran into Minah waiting for me with the movie stopped. We had a conversation earlier and I was a little embarrassed to see him waiting for me.

“Uh, why?”

“Jiheon.”

“Huh?”

“The sound was clear.”

“Uh? Sound?”

Ah, come to think of it, I stood and took care of my errands. I forgot that I had to sit down and pack because I was nervous and drunk.

“Sorry. Did you hear me?”

“Yes.”

“Sorry. I’m not in a hurry because of you,”

“I thought it was raining in the bathroom.”

“Thank you for the compliment! Thank you so much!”

“It’s just embarrassing.”

“Isn’t it really a compliment?”

She said so, but her mouth from which it came out was a smile. As she grumbled playfully, she went back to bed and lay down next to Mina.

“No, how can I take that as a compliment?”

“You praised me too.”

“What?”

I lay on my back on the pillow and got up with a groan. When I looked at her with a frown on her face like that, Mina replied without avoiding her eyes.

“It was a compliment.”

“That is? Is it raining?”

“Yes, I meant that tonight would be satisfying.”

“Why?!”

I was so stunned that I cried out and immediately lay down on her pillow. Then she turned around and looked at Mina and asked.

“No, why?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Why do you keep driving that way? I told you not today.”

“It was.”

“Then don’t do it. Huh? I didn’t meet today to do that with you.”

“Yes.”

“Then why? Why do you keep coming out like that?”

“…”

She sat still, staring at the motionless screen. Without saying anything, I gently held Mina’s hand. Then she looked down at her clasped hands and said,

“Jiheon. It’s dirty.”

“No. Not dirty.”

“No. Dirty with confectionery grease.”

“Because it’s okay. I didn’t even wash my hands in the bathroom.”

“…”

“I’m kidding. So don’t be so serious.”

“I didn’t straighten up. It was like this.”

“You’re right. Did you think I didn’t know you? Done. Let’s lie down now.”

She said and laid her body on her head on her bed. Mina looked at me and then she carefully lay down next to me. I asked again while fiddling with her hand.

“Why did you do that?”

“…”

“… If you don’t want to talk, you can’t.”

I didn’t want to forcefully ask. I knew that it would not be easy for her to speak her mind.

“Let’s see a movie. Eat snacks and beer. But where is the remote control?”

She tried to let go of her hand to pick up the remote control. But while Mina held her hand tightly, she didn’t let go of me.

“Uh? Is it Minah?”

“Actually,”

She paused for a moment before opening her mouth again.

“She has no confidence.”

“What confidence?”

“Jiheon didn’t have the confidence to make me conscious of the opposite sex.”

She didn’t look at me and continued her story with her eyes on the TV. Knowing that I barely mustered up the courage to say it, I listened while staring at the still screen.

“The people Jiheon perceives as the opposite sex are all different from me. So-hee is always lively and laughs a lot, and Se-hee also likes to joke around and never hesitates to talk about Ji-heon.”

Dashing seems similar to you.

Of course, without saying a word, Mina quietly listened to what she had to say.

“I only show fake smiles and fake emotions to Jiheon. Unlike the smiles of those two.”

“…”

“On the other hand, all I have is this body. Even though I couldn’t make Jiheon laugh like Sohee and Sehee, I wanted to satisfy him physically.”

“That’s not it, Minah.”

I grabbed this man’s big but soft hand with strength.

“How often do you laugh?”

“I mean?”

“Then. You laughed a lot today, don’t you remember?”

“Well, I don’t know.”

“We laughed while eating candy, we laughed when we ate together, and we laughed before getting into the car. How much you laughed, it’s hard to count, hey.”

“…”

“And, don’t say that you are inferior to Sehee or Sohee. Obviously, it is true that they are honest with their hearts and show their emotions well. But that doesn’t mean you’re ugly. You too have your own beauty.”

“Jiheon.”

Minah gently turned her head and looked at me. I also met her eyes, looking into her brown eyes.

“Then could you please tell me?”

“Your strengths?”

“Yes.”

“Um…”

It wasn’t that I was worrying about what was causing me to moan. I was thinking about what to say first. However, Mina must have understood it electronically, and held my hand with strength.

She put what she thought in a low tone to calm her anxiety.

“First of all, your smile is cute.”

“Yes.”

“Next, dumb things are cute.”

“Yes?”

“Even though you usually act upright, sometimes you show a dumb side. Just like that.”

“…”

Mina turned her head and looked at her TV. She wasn’t watching the movie that had stopped, she was avoiding my gaze out of embarrassment.

I could say one more thing about her with this.

“Ah, this is cute too. It’s embarrassing.”

“… No.”

“After that, your ears are red?”

“It’s because I’m drunk.”

“You only drank beer.”

“If you drink too much beer, you will get drunk.”

As she had a similar but opposite conversation to her earlier, I looked at her with her pleased expression. She looked at her with a smile on her eyes for a while, then continued her story.

“Besides what I just said, there are many things I can say about how pretty you are, how beautiful you are, how cute you are.”

“Isn’t that because you ran out of things to say?”

“Ah, can it be? If in doubt, can you tell me more?”

“No.”

“Why are you so shy?”

“… No.”

Mina was silent for a moment and closed her eyes. As if you don’t want to see my face.

“Actually, there is one more reason why Jiheon won’t, won’t, don’t like me.”

She stuttered her words uncharacteristically, but she wasn’t surprised and asked why.

“What. Did you kill me?”

“!”

Mina stood up for the first time and tried to let go of my hand. But I held on tightly to her hand and didn’t let go.

“Ji-heon.”

“We are still talking.”

“…”

She opened her eyes and looked at me still, then she gave up and laid her body back on her feet. Then she asked with a trembling eye and a frightened expression.

“You know, did you?”

“Uh. Sohee said. That you killed me.”

“…”

She averted her gaze from the bewildered Minah and looked right in front of her.

She said, “Even though he inflicted the fatal wound, he said you killed the day he was still alive. Shoot it with an arrow.”

Jittery

Her hands began to tremble as she grabbed her. I squeezed her hand tightly as a sign of reassurance.

“Are you okay. I don’t resent you or hate you. He was going to die anyway, and even if you didn’t kill him, someone else would have. No, I’m glad in the first place. Not by the hands of strangers, but by you.”

She turned her head and looked at Mina. I could see her face, pale enough to see through her brown skin.

“Maybe seeing you struggling like this, it might be better for someone else to kill you. Huh.”

He comforted her by telling her jokes.

“Are you okay. You are not bad It was an order.”

“That is not… !”

The answering voice was shaking as much as the hand she was holding now. Mina’s lips trembled slightly, and she soon began to hold back her tears.

“What I didn’t like was that I didn’t reject that order… !”

With a single drop running down her cheek, she began to weep.

“I should have rejected that order, no matter what, but I, I didn’t say anything. Saying no, no facial expressions, no gestures, no doing anything! I accepted the order to kill Jiheon.”

“…”

“I’m sorry, Jiheon. I’m really, really sorry… !”

Seeing Mina, who was always blunt, crying, made her heart entangle. At the same time, I felt resentful of myself for having been jokingly calm before.

“I-I’m sorry. Minah. I don’t know you’re having such a hard time.”

“No, no, Jiheon. I was wrong.”

“Because I’m fine. You couldn’t help it either. And even if you refused the order, you would have been killed. No?”

“Still, at least I should have refused. I should have refused so that Jiheon could live even for one more second.”

“No. I wanted you to live a little longer than me. Besides, I was dead at the time anyway.”

“No. Me too, after I killed Jiheon, Joo, killed, I was killed right away.”

“Look, you have outlived me. Don’t cry. Pop. Huh? Don’t cry.”

I let go of the hand I was holding to soothe. But when I let go of that hand, she started to cry even harder, probably taking it in a bad way.

“Ji, jiheon, sin, sorry, sorry… !”

“Because it’s okay. Stop crying.”

Speak as softly as possible and act as your heart leads you. He put Minah between her legs and rode on top of her.

“Don’t cry.”

With her soothing words, she bowed her head, kissing her crying face.

Side

A salty taste spread in her mouth as tears crept onto her lips.

As I kissed Mina stopped her crying and looked at me with her eyes wide open.

“Jiheon.”

“Look. What if I hate you?”

She sniffed once before answering.

“Sniff, no.”

“Huh. Don’t hate I forgave you long ago, and now it’s your turn to forgive yourself.”

“…”

“What’s the matter. Can’t you forgive me?”

“Well, I don’t know.”

What do we do. It’s so pretty.

I feel sorry for Mina who was worried, but she was so beautiful when she was crying. I didn’t know that it was so exciting to see her expressionless beauty revealing her honest feelings only in front of him.

She bowed her head again and kissed her tear-soaked mouth. This time she wasn’t done with just a brief touch. I lightly bit her quivering lower lip with mine and sucked it in weakly.

“Jjook, Jeop, Jeop♥”

She briefly tasted her lips and looked up, feeling her heart rate rise. In front of me, Mina, whose face was painted red, looked up at me.

I thought her eyes were just brown, but her right eye is slightly darker.

With this thought she bent over again and tried to put her hand between her collar. However,

“Oh, no. Jiheon.”

Mina weakly pushed her against my chest.

I was surprised to see that and asked.

“Why, don’t you want to?”

“You said you wouldn’t do it today, did you?”

Even though you say no, you look at me with expectant eyes, you have to be patient.

“… Ah I don’t know I will.”
