Min Jangmi Intercepts (1)
"I have zero interest in Min Deulle. That's not true."
"……."
"……."
My words brought a heavy silence crashing down. The living room fell utterly quiet—even the faint drip of water from the bathroom echoed faintly.
Ari stared at me, shock etched across her face. She opened her mouth as if to say something, then clamped it shut again without a word.
How much time passed like that? In the weighty hush, Ari blinked rapidly, drawing in deep breaths. Finally, she exhaled and muttered,
"No way……."
Her voice was thick with moisture. Tears seemed to well in her constantly blinking eyes.
Ari, are you… crying? I started to ask, but then—
"Ah~. Feels so refreshing."
Min Jangmi's voice floated from the bathroom, utterly languid. Just the sound of it was light and invigorating, like she'd washed away all fatigue.
"Huh? What are you two doing there?"
I turned to see her standing at the bathroom door. Her red hair was twisted up in a towel, and through her fogged-up glasses, she peered at us. She wore the same clothes from dinner, but with her skin still damp, they clung even tighter to her body.
Slam!
Ari roughly snapped her laptop shut and shot to her feet. Before I could say another word, she snatched it up and spun away.
"What? Did you two fight?"
Ari ignored Min Jangmi and stormed into her room.
Bang!
She slammed the door hard enough to rattle the frame.
"Ah…… I missed this crucial moment taking a shower."
Unni walked over to the dining table and plopped down right where Ari had been sitting.
"What did you say to make her act like that? Huh? What were you talking about?"
"You don't need to know."
"Aw, come on. Tell me~."
I slipped my hand into my pocket and fiddled with the remote, cranking up the vibration to shut her up. But she showed no reaction. She'd probably taken the dildo out before heading into the bathroom.
"Oh? Right, sorry! I forgot. Let me put it back in."
"Forget it. I'm not telling you anyway. If you're curious, go ask Ari."
I sighed and stood up, heading toward the half-open bathroom door.
As I pushed it open, a cloud of white steam billowed into my face. The fan was on, but the combined bathroom-toilet was still hazy with mist.
I need to splash some water on my face and clear my head….
I slipped on the bathroom slippers and cranked the cold faucet wide open.
Whoosh!
The rush of water mingled with my sigh. I cupped the icy stream once, twice, and splashed it over my face.
I can't figure out what she's thinking at all.
Why had Ari made that face? Why had she looked ready to cry? She has a boyfriend. She was even planning a one-night, two-day trip to get closer to him.
She likes me and wants to push other women away. Yeah, that has to be it….
I wanted to believe that. That she'd realized she liked me and was trying to ward off Min Deulle. I wanted to think of it that way.
The pushover who's stared only at her for over ten years… the guy she could use so easily… maybe she's upset because it feels like he's gone.
Is that really all it is? If so, then the one who should be crying is me. Sure, I've stuck by Ari's side because I didn't mind, even if it was one-sided. Up until now, just being useful to her made me happy.
But not anymore.
"You look like you've got a lot on your mind."
"Wha—! You scared me."
I whipped around. Min Jangmi had slipped into the bathroom without a sound. Click. She shut the door behind her and leaned against it.
She took off her steaming glasses and hooked them into the round neckline of her top. The weight tugged it down, revealing the soft valley of her cleavage and snaring my gaze.
"Unni, why are you doing this too? My head's already a mess…."
"What's so messy? Tell unni. I'll counsel you."
"No thanks. Just get out. Now. I need the bathroom."
"Did she catch you in the act with Min Deulle? Ari overheard?"
"……."
Min Deulle's words flashed through my mind. The part about Min Jangmi handing her the condom.
"Like I'd do it with the whole family right outside."
"Then what? You've switched from her to her little sister now? Don't get cocky just because I'm not your girlfriend. Is that it?"
Maybe it would've been better to cut things off cleanly like that. Screw what Ari thinks. I'll go all-in on Min Deulle. End the unrequited love today. Min Deulle is my new flame.
If only I could sort out my feelings that easily.
"Guess not, huh?"
"I'll tell you later. Just give me some space for now. I need time to think."
"In that case…… should unni back off for you?"
"Huh……?"
I wasn't sure I'd heard right.
"Releasing some stress with a good, hard climax helps a ton. Your body pumps out hormones like dopamine, endorphins, serotonin."
"……."
"You can think things over slowly while switching gears. What do you say?"
"Unni, stop messing around and get out."
"I'm not messing around. I've been pretty serious ever since I handed you that remote today."
Min Jangmi stepped closer. I couldn't push her away and ended up backed against the sink. She pressed her chest against mine, trapping me by gripping the sink edges on either side. Her soft breasts settled warmly atop my chest.
"You've made unni feel good, Jju-mong. Now unni will make you feel good."
"No…… if we get caught like this, it'll make everything even messier."
"It's fine. Door's locked. No one will hear if you stay quiet."
I grabbed her as she started sliding downward, clutching her shoulders. The thin fabric let me feel the yielding softness of her flesh.
"Unni…… aren't you trying to set me up with Min Deulle? What if she finds out about this?"
"Mm…… Honestly, I don't care who you end up with, Jju-mong."
"What?"
She didn't finish explaining, just slowly dropped to her knees in front of me. She spread the towel from her hair on the floor to cushion her knees, then set her glasses on the tub rail.
"We might get caught. That would be a disaster. The fact that we're even in a situation where I can think that…… turns me on, I guess?"
"……."
"I can't put it into words well. Sneaking around doing filthy things with a guy who's torn between my little sisters…… it's thrilling. My heart's pounding."
Min Jangmi breathed hotly as she confessed her kinks, licking her lips while eyeing my face and crotch in turn. Her gaze and expression brimmed with raw lust.
"It won't be bad for you either."
Her hand reached for my pants, stroking my thigh before she nuzzled her face between my legs and tilted her head up.
"Unni won't stand in the way no matter who you pair up with. Actually, I hope you do pair up with someone. I'll help. Min Deulle? Or Min Ari? Who do you want to connect with?"
"……."
"Don't worry. Just until you make it official with one of them. Once you're properly dating…… unni will stop this. Everything that's happened stays our secret. Okay?"
Min Jangmi slowly tugged at my pants. I gripped them to hold her off.
"Think about it, Jju-mong. Ari has a boyfriend…… and you and Deulle aren't even official yet."
"……."
"You don't hate this situation completely, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have taken the remote earlier."
I know I shouldn't. This is something I can't admit openly. Something that has to stay hidden. So the right thing is to stop. Push her away and bolt.
But even if we got caught…… even if things went south…… couldn't I smooth it over with the app? Use the past manipulation to make it never happened?
And if I turn her down now, she'll just keep coming. From her perspective, I'm the perfect guy for safe thrills.
A man who likes Min Ari. A man Min Deulle likes. Which means he can't be rough with her, their big sister. Which means she can feel better than ever.
That's probably how she sees it.
"You're such a ridiculous pervert……."
I let go. The moment I registered Min Jangmi on the Dream Manipulation App, I took on responsibility too. And thanks to the condom she gave me, I closed the distance with Min Deulle in one shot today.
"Ah………♥"
Unni let out a soft gasp of admiration as she eased down my pants and underwear. A pleasant shiver raced through me at the sound. Whether in dreams or reality, there's nothing like a woman's awed reaction to my cock.
"You were gonna put something this huge…… inside Min Deulle."
She reached out tentatively and grasped my limp shaft, lifting it to plant a kiss on the tip of the glans. It was the same kind of kiss, but worlds apart from Min Deulle's.
"Must've held back a ton alone with Deulle. It's already this slick."
She moved her face slowly, pressing her lips to the glans and carefully smearing the leaking fluid across them. The precum from kissing Min Deulle now moistened Min Jangmi's lips.
Just minutes ago, I'd built such a sweet mood with Min Deulle…… minutes ago, I'd agonized over Min Ari……
And yet here I was, unable to shake off Min Jangmi's temptation.
"Sorry for cutting in midway……."
She crushed my guilt by mashing her lips against the glans.
"Unni, you're making my head spin right now…… so cut the chit-chat and do it right."
No sooner had the words left my mouth than Min Jangmi sucked the glans deep into her mouth. Staring right into my eyes, agonizingly slow. Like she meant to suck away every last bit of my guilt. With eyes that missed none of my reactions.
