Chapter 310 – … Did I Gain Weight?
“Yes, you smile like that! One, two, three! Yes, I like it!”
After the group photo, individual photos were waiting for us. Still, this was the last filming, and Sehee and I finished first, so only the demon king remained.
Me, Sehee, and Mina stood in front of the set and watched the demon king take pictures.
“You are my sister, too.”
Sae-hee, who was eating with a chocolate cookie in her hand, praised her sister.
“It’s natural because you mix acting with real life. Isn’t it?”
“Uh, yes.”
“That’s right, Sehee.”
Unlike me who couldn’t answer because she was thinking about something, Mina easily nodded her head.
“Why is that, brother?”
There was no way he would not have noticed my poor answer.
“Is it because of this?”
Sehee held out her palm as if she knew everything. There were brown chocolate cookies on the small white palms.
“You can eat. You can bring it again.”
“Uh, uh. Thank you.”
I said thank you and picked up some snacks. He put the sweet snack in his mouth, but instead of savoring the taste, he focused only on watching Saehee.
Sehee gained weight?
The words Mina said at the end of the break earlier kept ringing in her head.
Admittedly, she’s gained more weight than when we first met. Her blood vessels had dried up to the point where they protruded a little, but the backs of her hands, where only blue veins were visible now, and the sharp jawline felt a bit rounder.
“Why?”
It looked like he was looking at it too much. Sehee noticed my gaze and looked up at me.
Did you gain weight?
These words came up to my throat. Looking at the eyes that were black but with a bit of blue mixed in, I was puzzled in the end.
“No, just. Because it’s pretty.”
“What is that?”
Sae-hee smiled as if she was blushing and turned her eyes back to the set.
I looked at her like that, then I looked at Mina, who stood opposite her.
“Why are you like this, Jiheon?”
Mina also noticed me staring at me and asked.
“Is this the bathroom?”
“No, not that.”
“Is that so.”
For some reason, it felt like she missed her.
“Then what is it?”
“There it is.”
As I was about to speak, Se-hee, who was next to me, got stuck. Asking if I gained weight right next to me didn’t seem polite.
“Wait for a sec.”
While Se-hee was distracted by her sister, I took Min-a a little away. Even if it was, it was only a few steps away.
Hiding among the filming staff, I asked Mina who had brought me.
“Sehee is there.”
“Are you Sehee?”
Because of the others around her, she acted normally, not her usual blunt tone.
“Why Sehee? What’s going on?”
“That’s not it. How do you see Do you look fat?”
“Yes…
Mina looked over my head at Sehee. Then she looked down at me again and answered.
“It’s true that you’ve gained more weight than before.”
“So, is it enough to take it off?”
“It would be nice to get rid of it. But I think it should be added, not subtracted, to me.”
“Uh? Did you say take it off?”
“Unlike us, Sehee doesn’t even exercise. As a result, they gain flab and become skinny and obese. If you’re going to gain weight, I think you should gain healthy weight, not flab.”
But.
I had never seen or heard of Sehee exercising. Besides, the image of her body she had seen when they were sleeping together came into her mind.
At that time, Se-hee was so thin that her ribs were showing a little, but the little flab on her side caught her eye. And that flesh seemed to grow with each passing day.
“Jiheon.”
Mina suggested to me while I was thinking.
“Would you like to go to the gym with Sehee later?”
“Gym? Where are you going?”
“Not there. Sohee, Sehee, there’s a gym near your house, right? There is a discount of 50,000 won per month for the new year. How are you there?”
When asked what it was like, of course I said ‘YES’. Even now, once every two days, I ran with the Demon King in the school playground, and after that, I even sparred at the kendo gym. Since the year has changed, the number of blocking has increased compared to the first time, so it was worth doing.
“By the way, Sohee is going too, right?”
“Of course it is. The three of us are going.”
“Let’s go. Let’s go unconditionally.”
… Yeah, it was worth it It wasn’t something I wanted to do.
Almost a year had passed, but the Demon King was still stronger than me. It was safe to say that there was almost no case where I didn’t fit because of the gap in my skills that couldn’t be bridged.
However, if the demon king enjoyed going to the gym instead of sparring with me, then I wouldn’t have to fight anymore.
When I was happy with the thought of getting out of every threshing, the director announced the end of all the shooting.
“Yes! I will stop Shimai now! Thank you all for your hard work!”
Words of hard work were heard here and there, and the director looked around her and shouted to Mina.
“President! Can I see you for a minute?”
Seeing that, Minah still didn’t stop acting and begged for her understanding.
“Can I go, Jiheon?”
“No, why not?”
“Thank you. Also, can Jiheon tell you about the gym?”
“Okay. Go ahead.”
“Thank you, Mr. Jiheon.”
I knew she would leave right here.
Side ♥
However, Mina left a deep kiss on my cheek and left with a smile. She smiled at her breath, which left behind a sweet yet bitter scent like chocolate.
I stroked her cheek to confirm that the moist feeling from earlier was real. I felt like this feeling would fly away if I touched it hard, so I heard a familiar voice as I was rubbing it gently.
“Ah, brother. I was here.”
“What are you doing here?”
She lowered her stroking hand and looked to her side. As expected, the Demon King who had finished filming and Se-hee, who was watching it, were standing there.
“Now change your clothes and go quickly.”
The demon king, who seemed to be subtly tired, gestured toward the dressing room. It was the same for me and Sehee, so of course I had no intention of objecting.
“Okay, let’s go. I want to go and lie down for a while. Comfortable.”
“Me too. Besides, there are too many people indoors, so I’m tired.”
“What does that matter?”
“Yes, something like that. It’s for a shy person like me.”
“Hmm.”
The demon king frowned at the conversation we had on our way to the dressing room.
“I thought a hikikomori like Jiheon would know.”
“Hey.”
“Then do you think you are not a hikikomori?”
That’s not it again
I couldn’t deny it, so I just quietly arrived in front of the dressing room. Then, a female staff member standing in front of the cloth that covered the inside approached us.
“Hey, I’m sorry.”
“Yes? No, what is it?”
Demon King and Sehee, who were chatting excitedly, hid behind me as if they were covering their faces. I don’t know her well, but she couldn’t help but I spoke with her as her representative.
“Why. What’s going on?”
“The man did his makeup in the dressing room earlier. Right.”
“Yes, I did.”
There was only one dressing room, so I changed clothes and put on makeup in a place where clothes were piled up like a warehouse. Remembering that, she nodded her head.
The staff who saw that day frowned as if they were sorry.
“There are other staff members there now. I think you’ll have to wait a while to remove your makeup and change your clothes.”
“Is it so? So, do they have to wait a bit too?”
“No. That’s not it. Because women change first, then men change.”
“Then.”
Here, Se-hee, who was hiding behind me, asked.
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I changed clothes with you? I think that would save time as well.”
“Oh, are you okay?”
At Sehee’s words, her staff looked at her and her demon king. Then they both nodded and said it was okay.
“All right. Then I will. Come on in.”
Without my permission, the staff opened the tent installed instead of the door.
“Song.”
“Let’s go.”
“Uh huh?”
As soon as she went inside her, her sister pushed me on the back.
The dressing room I couldn’t enter earlier was similar to the one I saw on TV. A dresser and chair surrounded by light bulbs, and even a hanger tightly hung with clothes. It was different from where I had changed before.
“Here, man.”
The staff who entered first pointed to the sofa in the dressing room.
“The men’s clothes are over there, so you can change. How will you do your makeup? Shall we erase it here and now, or at home?”
“You.”
“Brother.”
I should have said it myself, but her sister noticed by poking me in the back.
“Okay, little.”
Reprimanding the two behind me, I delivered my words.
“I’ll erase it at home. At home.”
“All right. Then I’ll be out.”
“Yes.”
“Call me when you’re done.”
The staff left the dressing room at the end of those words.
I looked at the cloth shaking as it opened and closed, then walked over to the sofa. I arrived in front of the sofa and turned my head back, but the demon king called me.
“You.”
“Huh?”
Turning around, I met eyes with the demon king who laughed mischievously.
“Don’t you think it would be thrilling to do it in a place like this?”
“Noisy!”
I immediately said no and tried to change clothes. Then, all of a sudden, I remembered what Minah had said earlier, so I looked at them once again.
“Sister, is there a plastic bag there?”
“Well, here it is. Receive it.”
“Thank you.”
The Demon King took out a white plastic bag from the basket in front of the dressing table. Upon receiving it, Sehee put the bag over her face.
“What, what?”
The first time I saw it, I couldn’t help but ask a question.
“Well, maybe you don’t know. You will receive it here too.”
After hearing my words, the demon king handed me a plastic bag as well. Then, Se-hee, who was wearing a bag over her head, pointed to taking off her top.
“If you just take it off, makeup gets on your clothes. That’s why I write.”
“I see…”
Understanding, I nodded.
Rustle rustle
In fact, there was not only one thing I understood. Certainly, like Mina said, it seemed like we needed to go to the gym together.
But, what should I say? I think you’ll get angry if you just say it.
“Your sister?”
“I’m with Minah unnie.”
“Okay? But it’s Sehee.”
“Yes. Why? Would you like to eat this too? It is delicious.”
“It is not. Mina said earlier. I heard there’s a gym discount near your house. Shall we go?”
“… Did I gain weight?”
“Oh, why are you talking like that?”
“It’s like that after changing clothes together. Did I gain weight?”
“Ah, what. What kind of weight do you gain It’s cute just the way it is.”
“Did I gain weight?”
“You didn’t gain weight? We just want to do some exercise together.”
“That means you gained weight, right now. That’s Okay. Let’s go, gym. I won’t be able to go.”
“No, that’s not what I meant.”
“Right, now. Then why are you saying that now? You’re saying that because you’ve gained weight.”
“Did Mina ask to go with you first?”
“Are you selling Minah unnie?”
“Why is this so? No. It’s just that Minah brought her words out.”
“… Sohee. I think it would be better to call a little later.”
“Hmm. Come on later, not now. Later.”
