Chapter 143: Confusion
Before I knew it, Yoo Ah-rin and Seo Ye-rin had fallen asleep.
Their pillows were soaking wet, so the two of them were using my arms as headrests, their eyes shut tight as they let out rhythmic breaths.
I’ve achieved a life goal.
I never imagined I’d actually end up in a threesome.
And with Seo Ye-rin and Yoo Ah-rin, no less.
I’d slept with both of them at the same time—two girls who had been best friends since high school.
I didn't know how this would play out in the future, but regardless, I’d say today was a pretty productive day.
Sigh, I’m freaking exhausted.
It was my first time handling two women at once, so it had been a total whirlwind.
How should I put it?
It felt like putting two food bowls in front of a dog and watching it frantically switch back and forth between them?
Seeing Seo Ye-rin and Yoo Ah-rin completely naked in front of me had made me lose my mind for a while.
Now, my sanity had finally returned.
I guess you could call it post-nut clarity.
I’m really screwed.
Achievement or not, I told myself I had to take this secret to the grave. As a wave of fatigue and drowsiness washed over me, my eyes finally drifted shut.
* * *
“Ugh, I’m so tired.”
“Look at Kim Woo-jin sleeping so peacefully just because he’s the only one who quit.”
“Mmm?”
At the sound of their voices, I forced my heavy eyelids open.
The weight on both my arms was gone. The curtains were drawn back, the window was open, and Seo Ye-rin and Yoo Ah-rin were in the middle of getting dressed in their underwear.
Normally, I would have widened my eyes and tried to burn as much of their bodies into my memory as possible. But…
“Have a good day.”
I’d already seen them naked plenty of times, so I just closed my eyes again.
“Look at him acting all relaxed now that he’s had his fill!”
Yoo Ah-rin must have found my attitude offensive because she immediately stepped on me, but since I was so sleepy, it didn't really hurt.
“Woo-jin, don’t leave until we get back, okay?”
Seo Ye-rin gave me a warning as she buttoned up her shirt.
“……I’m leaving.”
I planned to sleep a bit more and then head straight back, so I answered grumpily. Seo Ye-rin clicked her tongue.
“Let’s go back together. Please?”
“Then I’d have to stay here for another week. You want me to live here until then?”
I’m not a parasite.
Living in secret in their room without the other girls knowing was a bit much.
“Then just stay until we get off work. Okay? We’ll see you off.”
“No, I’m leaving before you guys get back.”
As I squirmed and pulled the blanket up to my face, Yoo Ah-rin strongly agreed.
“Yeah, I think it’s better if he goes. If the mood gets weird again, he might end up leaving even later.”
She was spot on.
I’d had the same thought.
If I waited for them and the atmosphere turned suggestive again, I didn't have the confidence to resist.
Wouldn't that just lead to staying another day?
It wasn't like I was stuck in some sex loop, but I felt like I’d end up staying with them forever if I didn't leave soon.
“That was actually my plan.”
What was even more chilling was that all three of us had the same thought, and one of them was actually looking forward to it.
That was the truly scary part.
Was she planning on just having sex for the rest of eternity?
“Ow, geez. My legs hurt.”
“I’m still stinging, too.”
I closed my eyes tight, listening with satisfaction to the groans of the two struggling to put on their pants.
The other girls would be heading to work soon anyway, so I’d just sleep a bit more, wake up around lunchtime, and go home.
“But Ye-rin.”
When are they leaving?
Aren't they late?
They barely got any sleep, so I wondered why they were taking so long to get ready.
“You’re Anonymous 69, aren't you?”
Yoo Ah-rin’s sharp question cut straight to the heart of the matter.
From outside the blanket, I could feel Seo Ye-rin sending me a distress signal.
I burrowed even deeper into the covers.
I wasn't letting go.
It’s dangerous outside the blanket.
“The way you talk and act is exactly like Anonymous 69. The ‘Anime Master’ thing was a lie, and you’re actually the ‘Sex Master,’ right?”
“N-n-n-no, I’m not.”
Her voice was trembling so much she’d already blown it.
That girl really isn't good at anything except being pretty.
Sex?
She just happens to like it.
Acting?
Looking at her now, I wondered if she actually had any talent for it.
“I-I-I’m an otaku!”
“Cut the crap. Now that I think about it, Kim Woo-jin said the Sex Master was in our department. That was you.”
“…….”
Thump! Thump!
Seo Ye-rin was probably stomping on me, but I ignored it.
“Whatever, it’s not like we haven't seen everything already. What’s there to be embarrassed about?”
Yoo Ah-rin tried to comfort her in her own way, but Seo Ye-rin was huffing like a steam engine, sounding utterly miserable.
“M-my image……”
Is she crazy?
I seriously wanted to ask what kind of "image" she thought she had, but I held back because I knew I’d get beaten up if I came out from under the blanket now.
“What image? We’re going to be late. Let’s just go, Ye-rin.”
“Ugh! The Administrator is so annoying! I’m going to spam the board with lewd pics today!”
“Don’t do it!”
“Don’t do it!”
I threw back the blanket and snapped at her immediately. The funny thing was that Yoo Ah-rin did it at the exact same time.
“What’s with the synchronization?”
Seo Ye-rin looked back and forth between us, her cheeks puffed out in jealousy.
“Let me do it too! Since Ah-rin already knows my identity, just make me a Moderator too!”
Now that her cover was blown, Seo Ye-rin grumbled that there was no reason to hold back anymore.
“O-okay, fine. Let’s just go. We’re really going to be late. The others are calling us.”
I could hear Lee Seo-ah and Han Bom’s voices from outside.
Since they really had to get to work now, Yoo Ah-rin dragged Seo Ye-rin out of the room.
I thought they might at least say goodbye, but since we’d be seeing each other again in a few days, I figured a formal farewell wasn't necessary—
“Hey, get home safe.”
“Woo-jin, text us when you arrive.”
I thought they were gone, but the two of them poked their heads back through the door to say goodbye.
I waved back and then lay right back down.
Their scent is still here.
The spot still held the fragrance and warmth of Seo Ye-rin and Yoo Ah-rin.
Strangely, rather than feeling turned on, it felt cozy. I calmly closed my eyes.
And soon, I fell fast asleep.
* * *
“…….”
My eyes slowly fluttered open.
I had been incredibly tired, and it felt like someone had forcibly woken me up.
However, it wasn't because of a noise or someone shaking me.
I just woke up in a very quiet, calm manner.
That was exactly it.
I opened my eyes without a single twitch, in a silence so profound I could have been a corpse coming to life.
Wasn't it strange?
I was definitely exhausted.
The sunlight streaming in and the chilly breeze told me it was still morning.
Why was I awake again?
Why had I opened my eyes?
My sleep-addled brain slowly began to function.
I was still deathly tired, and my eyelids felt heavy as if pleading with me to go back to sleep since my body hadn't recovered yet.
Even as I closed my eyes again, my thoughts didn't stop.
Why did I wake up?
There were exactly two reasons.
One was a chill.
Not the fresh breeze coming through the open window, but a coldness emanating from a body.
The other was a smell.
Cigarette smoke.
Yes, a smell of cigarettes so strong it felt almost pungent wafted into my nose.
Cigarettes?
I rolled my eyes downward to find the source.
I almost drifted off again, but I managed to discover the identity of the chill and the cigarette smell.
“…….”
A black-haired woman was blinking her eyes.
For some reason, she was lying in my arms as if snuggling, and she had already been looking up at me before I even looked down.
What the…
It turns out humans don't actually get that surprised when something completely unimaginable happens.
Senior Ju-hee was lying there, tucked under the covers as if she belonged in my arms.
Yet, I didn't really feel much of anything.
Was I too shocked to move, or was I just too sleepy to have the energy to react?
Senior Ju-hee, whose eyes were locked onto mine, blinked her large eyes a few times and then froze.
She probably needed some time to process reality, just like me.
Is that really Senior Ju-hee?
Tap.
I placed my hand on Senior Ju-hee’s head as she lay in my arms.
It was real. I could feel the texture.
Hmm.
I see.
She’s stiff.
That was it.
I slowly closed my eyes again.
* * *
“Phew.”
When I woke up again, I immediately checked the time on my phone.
It was 1 PM.
It was exactly lunchtime, so I sat up and tried to fix my messy hair.
“I guess I can’t take a shower……”
I looked at the bathroom with regret, pulled a hat out of my suitcase, and tugged it down low.
Since I still had time left on my studio apartment lease and hadn't cleared it out yet, I decided to shower once I got home.
I have to pack for the move when I get back, too.
The thought of being busy preparing to move into the dormitory brought a natural sigh to my lips.
I checked my reflection in the mirror, did a quick tidy-up, and then headed out, dragging my suitcase behind me.
Coincidentally, Choi I-seo had sent a message. I replied that I was heading back today, and she suggested we grab dinner together if I wasn't too tired.
“I really am a piece of work.”
I cursed myself once and replied that I’d pay, hoping it would make me feel a little better.
Since it would be a late dinner, I figured I could sleep more on the bus, shower as soon as I got home, and then head out.
Why does that suggestion sound suggestive?
Maybe it was because of the erotic situations that had been playing out since yesterday, but even Choi I-seo’s casual suggestion felt like a temptation.
While pondering the menu, I boarded a bus that arrived at the stop with perfect timing.
I decided we could figure out the menu together once I got there and turned my gaze out the window.
Once I reached the intercity bus terminal and got on the bus heading back, I’d be able to sleep for a few more hours.
“Whew, I’m finally leaving.”
Watching the Gold One Hotel recede into the distance, I felt a bittersweet emotion.
I’d had many experiences and undergone many changes.
My college life was about to start again.
I was a sophomore now, and the thought of living as a slightly more mature Kim Woo-jin made me feel a sense of pride.
My relationship with Seo Ye-rin and Yoo Ah-rin had become complicated, and I might die if Choi I-seo found out, but…
Whatever the case, for now—
“Wait, what the hell was that?!”
Why was Senior Ju-hee in my arms?
