Chapter 55 – Cafe
“Welcome!”
When I went into the cafe holding Seo Jin-ah and her hand, the clerk inside welcomed us.
A view inside a clean cafe with modern interior.
Outside the glass window, a picturesque landscape of nature and the city center was visible.
There aren’t that many people, so the cafe atmosphere is perfect for a date.
“∙∙∙How do you know about this place?”
Because the destination I chose was so perfect. She looks at me with her surprising eyes.
“Because I’m not a motherfucker like you.”
“∙∙∙If you say one more thing about being that bastard’s mother, he’ll just leave, regardless of whether it’s a date or not.”
Seojin growled when I gently scratched her insides.
Looking at her, I made a surrender gesture.
I said this because I needed to take a moment to vent because the atmosphere had been so sweet on the way here.
It was nice to just hold hands without saying a word, but it was so awkward that I felt like I was dying.
“My ex-girlfriend liked this place so I came here often.”
“∙∙∙Ah. So, will you reminisce about your past relationships by going on a date with me?”
“Why are you talking like that? “I just came here to take pictures.”
I ignored her jealousy without much notice.
Anyway, Seojin, that guy knew that I wasn’t that kind of person.
When did we break up? It’s been a long time since I forgot about my past relationship.
Plus, no matter how you look at what Seo Jin-ah and I are doing these days, it’s not something a normal person would do. My brain was marinated in stimulating pleasure.
Is there any place in the world where childhood friends confess while masturbating while playing master?
When I think about that, I wasn’t sane either.
“Quickly choose the menu. “I’m going to shoot today.”
“∙∙∙Really?”
“Instead, you buy the food later.”
“Why me?”
“Why me? “I have no money.”
As she was looking through the menu, bickering as usual, Seo Jin-ah suddenly told her what she wanted.
“I’ll have cake then!”
“You hate cake, so you don’t eat it except on your birthday.”
“Whatever. And it’s not that I don’t like cake, it’s that I don’t eat it because it’s expensive, right? “If you buy it for me, of course I have to eat it.”
“∙∙∙What dude?”
“With cake. With honey bread. Macaroon and crople∙∙∙”
“No. How many are you ordering?”
Is Seo Jin-ah planning to pick a mulberry today? She was ready to order desserts that she had never tried before.
Is the woman next to me my girlfriend or my enemy?
Of course she is, but she is not his girlfriend yet. Still, it was like she was actually dating her.
Still, seeing as he tried to tease me, we were still close friends.
“Dessert is enough. Order a drink. What would you like to drink.”
“∙∙∙∙∙∙Hmm.”
“You can’t eat bitter food. “Drink a strawberry smoothie.”
“∙∙∙What do you say? “I know how to drink coffee too, right?”
“Are drinking and liking the same thing? “Don’t talk too much and drink your smoothie.”
Seojin glares at me, thinking I’m treating her like a child.
Still, it was true that she didn’t like what she wrote, so she didn’t say anything and decided to drink her smoothie as I said.
I ordered an Americano from the clerk.
“∙∙∙∙∙∙Are you really going to eat all of this and leave?”
“Yes? Ah∙∙∙”
The clerk must have been writing down all the orders Seo Jin-ah had mentioned in her joking manner. There were almost 10 desserts listed on the counter.
It was a lot for a light dessert at a cafe, but I ordered all of the menu items that Seo Jin-ah mentioned without canceling.
“Yes. “Just order it.”
“∙∙∙Okay”
“What. “Are you really going to order all of this?”
“I have to take pictures anyway. “It’s a cafe, but it’s nice to see a lot of desserts.”
There were other reasons besides that.
“And if you want to eat something, I can buy you something like this.”
“∙∙∙What. What. “At one point, you said you should pay half and half∙∙∙”
“You said you liked me.”
Although we were still close friends. Because I had to stay away from that from now on.
Instead, we had to become closer as lovers.
“That’s why I’m buying it. “If you hadn’t said that, would I have bought it now?”
“∙∙∙Da. Shut up! “What are you talking about outside?”
Are you muttering something harsh on purpose? Seo Jin-ah herself is more embarrassed than me.
The way she looked at her, averting my gaze to her side, pounding her side with her fist.
Even though her gestures seemed to show disapproval, I could see that the corners of her mouth were smiling.
To express it so openly. As her mother, she seemed to be very good from her perspective.
Because I only thought in my delusions that I would be like this.
“∙∙∙Please wait at your seat and I will bring it to you.”
Seeing us making fun of each other, the clerk offered us something in a blunt tone.
The facial expression and voice seem to make anyone think he’s an ugly dog.
I was embarrassed by that voice, so I stopped teasing Seo Jin-ah and went to my seat and sat down.
She followed me and sat in the front seat of the loveseat and faced me.
***
“∙∙∙∙∙∙It was crazy.”
While we were waiting, the desserts and drinks we ordered came out.
The table was full of all kinds of sweet things.
Maybe it’s because this place has its own price range. It seemed like a lot of care went into each menu item.
Desserts that look so pretty that it’s almost a shame to eat them.
The moment when Seo Jin-ah was about to dig into those desserts with her fork.
“Hey. Just sleep. “You have to take a picture first.”
“I just want to eat. “What kind of photo is this?”
“∙∙∙I guess you’ve forgotten why you’re here. “We really didn’t come on a date, we just came here to take pictures, right?”
“Then why don’t you take pictures of me eating?”
Seo Jin-ah, paying no heed to my words of waiting, scoops up her cake and puts it in her mouth.
Then my eyes widen with happiness.
“∙∙∙Fuck. “It tastes like shit.”
“Speak kindly.”
“Have you tried it? “I wonder if there will be swearing or not!”
“Is it normal to curse because it’s delicious?∙∙∙”
Countless times, I filmed her eating on her cell phone camera.
I also wanted to take a photo of the dessert and ask Serin to draw it later.
But now that I think about it, there are a lot of pretty pictures of desserts on the Internet, so I guess I could just refer to those and draw them.
So she just took pictures of herself eating.
Click.
Seojin Ara gave strength to her appearance today. The appearance captured on camera was also different from usual.
The sight of her smiling combined with her nice scenery.
Watching that made me feel happy too.
“∙∙∙What are you doing? You idiot.”
“Huh? “Are you talking about me?”
“∙∙∙Then who else can I talk to other than you?”
Seo Jin-ah may have been smiling while looking at the photo without realizing it, but Seo Jin-ah grumbled out of embarrassment.
“∙∙∙ Or just eat it.”
Then he picked up a piece of cake with a fork and put it to my mouth.
“I’ll eat it myself.”
“∙∙∙Ah. Eat some! “I give it to you!”
“I said I could eat it myself∙∙∙∙∙∙!”
She took some useful photos and tried to eat slowly. Seojin suddenly shoves cake into her mouth.
When I turned my gaze to her from looking at her phone screen, I saw her blushing face.
I wonder if doing this with me makes me feel like a lover. The fact that her heartbeat was speeding up was clearly visible in her facial expressions.
‘I think it came out well today∙∙∙’
Although it’s still a bit clumsy. Seo Jin-ah and I were gradually becoming real lovers.
This guy’s happiness suddenly became my happiness.
To be honest with her, when I placed the order, I said something to tease her. In my heart, I felt like it was a waste of money.
It’s not like eating at a restaurant. I spend several thousand won at a cafe. It was an idea that a commoner like me would definitely do.
However. Now, it truly wasn’t a waste at all.
All I could think was that if I could see more of Seo Jin-ah like that, I could spend as much money as I wanted.
As she eats her piece of cake on her fork, she pulls the fork out of her mouth.
As she said. The cake was very delicious.
The texture of the fluffy bread and the gentle sweetness of the whipped cream combined to form a perfect harmony.
It was a taste I had forgotten since it had been a long time since I came here. Old memories suddenly came to mind.
‘My ex-girlfriend also really liked the cake here∙∙∙’
I know it’s rude to bring up old things in front of Seo Jin-ah. Still, it’s a memory I can’t erase, so what can I do?
These were memories that came to mind as if in passing.
Although I can’t compare to Seo Jin-ah, I had a lot of memories with her ex-girlfriend.
“Is it delicious?”
“∙∙∙It’s delicious.”
“Look! I told you so. “It’s so delicious.”
Seo Jin-ah secretly smiles, as if she feels good seeing me enjoying the food.
Then, she put the fork that was in my mouth into her own mouth.
When I saw that, I was embarrassed and shouted.
“No. Hey. “Why are you sucking that?”
I couldn’t understand her behavior as she sucked on the fork she put in my mouth like a child.
Seo Jin-ah looks at me confused and mutters shyly.
“∙∙∙I. “I like this better.”
“∙∙∙∙∙∙∙.”
Perhaps she wanted to take revenge on me for my harsh words that made fun of her earlier. Seo Jin-ah also started saying similar things to me.
She licks my saliva off the fork and says my saliva tastes sweeter than cake.
Even though she is much prettier than usual, she is saying things like that.
‘∙∙∙I can’t stand it.’
The engine started suddenly.
“∙∙∙Now. Just sleep. “Why are you coming towards me?”
When I got up from where I was sitting and approached Seo Jin-ah, she was startled and backed away slightly.
I respond to her as if it were natural.
“To kiss you.”
“∙∙∙What. What! Mi. It’s crazy!”
“You tempted me. “I want you to kiss me.”
“∙∙∙It’s not like that! Me. “I want to see you get embarrassed too. ∙∙∙ Wow!”
I didn’t care who was looking at us or not, I put my face in hers.
After holding her head in place with my hands. Her blushing expression is captured in her eyes.
As her lips get closer and closer, Seo Jin-ah becomes embarrassed and covers her mouth with her hand.
“Ah. No way! “Everyone is watching!”
“So who would do such a foolish thing?”
“∙∙∙You. “You did that to me first!”
“Then why don’t you be pretty?”
“∙∙∙What. “What are you talking about? Seriously!”
There was no brake for me now.
I just wanted to lust after the lips of my soon-to-be wife in front of me.
An act of affection in a cafe. It wouldn’t have been strange if I had been kicked out, but it didn’t matter, I just wanted to kiss this guy.
I tried to remove her hand that was blocking my run and put my face against her face with her eyes tightly closed.
Unfortunately, my rapid progress had no choice but to stop.
“Welcome!”
The voice of a clerk greeting you brightly upon seeing the door open.
At that voice, I turned around and checked who was coming in.
I didn’t know why I was acting like this all of a sudden. You even stopped kissing me and turned around.
It felt like there was someone who absolutely had to check something.
Feeling an inexplicable attraction, I looked at the cafe door, and there was someone I knew there.
Even if I try to forget it. A person I still can’t forget.
“Lee Hyun Woo?”
My ex-girlfriend called my name.
