Friends
Crunch, crunch.
Chaeyeon's hand kept reaching for the bag of snacks without stopping.
Back then, there was no law requiring PC bangs to have mandatory smoking booths, so whether it was a non-smoking section or a smoking section, the place was always filled with cigarette smoke.
Because of that, even if girls liked games, they rarely came to PC bangs at that time.
Especially if they were pretty girls who hated getting cigarette smell soaked into their clothes.
Yet here was a girl in a school uniform, showing up at a PC bang.
It wasn't just because she was a girl — her innocent, beautiful face and sensuous body drew everyone's gaze without fail.
What made it even worse was what Jaehyeon had done.
Since I'd used my wealth to clean up the mess Jaehyeon had made, the stares that had already gathered now had no intention of leaving, thanks to Chaeyeon.
Despite all that, I was so used to it that I didn't pay any attention.
"What about Nayoung?"
"Nayoung?"
As I approached her, Chaeyeon naturally got up from her seat.
No sooner had I sat down on the chair I'd been using than she calmly settled onto my lap.
"She said she was going to buy some light clothes for Chaerin to wear this summer. But I'm not really interested in that kind of thing, so I just came to see you."
"Is that so?"
To others, she seemed like an infinitely kind, foolish girl, but she was actually a contradictory woman full of pretense.
She did like pretty clothes, but she didn't want to spend a lot of time on them, so it seemed she'd just broken away from them.
Anyway.
"How did you know I was here?"
"Just... the places you'd go are limited, aren't they? I looked around a bit."
She didn't like spending a lot of time buying clothes like ordinary women, yet she freely wasted time on something like this.
"You should have called me. If you'd told me you were coming, I would have told you where I was."
It wasn't like I was hiding anything, so I would have definitely told her the moment she asked.
I said that as I reached out my arms toward the mouse and keyboard.
The game had started.
"It's a surprise."
She giggled and leaned her back completely against me.
Her unique scent hit my nose hard.
And her soft skin — I was supposed to be playing a game, but I couldn't focus at all.
She wiggled her hips on my lap trying to get comfortable, and the soft sensation made my dick feel like it was about to stand straight up.
Still, since my view was blocked by the back of Chaeyeon's head, I rested my chin on her shoulder and somehow kept playing the game.
But this was incredibly uncomfortable.
Naturally, since my body was twisted to the side.
If I kept up this uncomfortable position, my body would eventually start screaming.
From cramps or stiffness.
But Chaeyeon had nowhere else to sit, and I couldn't very well make her stand, so I decided to endure the discomfort.
"Your girlfriend?"
Cheolyong, who didn't know who Chaeyeon was, couldn't take his eyes off her beautiful face as he asked the question.
His game skills were already Bronze incarnate, terrible as could be, and now that he couldn't focus, his deaths kept piling up.
"......"
I couldn't answer and kept my mouth shut.
That was because Nayoung was known as my girlfriend, but Chaeyeon was also my girlfriend, so it was hard to flat-out say no.
Even if she said she was fine with it, honestly, how could she actually be fine?
She just didn't say anything for my sake, but the wounds might have been accumulating little by little.
"Yeah. That's right."
So I kept my mouth shut and pretended not to hear, focusing on the game, but Chaeyeon let that answer slip out.
"Oh... really? Nice. No wait, is it because you have money?"
He was full of questions about how someone like me could be dating such a pretty girl, but he seemed to accept it based on the single fact that I had money.
Somehow that pissed me off.
Why did he have to understand it through money alone?
Didn't it occur to him that Chaeyeon might be head over heels for me for other reasons?
She actually said she was deeply into me for things other than my wealth.
My face, my thoughtfulness. My mature side, and so on.
"Ah shit...! What are you doing!"
"Ah. Sorry."
When Cheolyong died while I was marveling, Jaehyeon got angry.
Thump, thump.
He kept kicking under the table, and a sigh welled up inside me.
Wait a minute.
"Doesn't he know either?"
Cheolyong I could understand, but Jaehyeon must have heard the rumors spreading openly at school.
He sometimes met up with me, so he must have heard that my girlfriend was Nayoung.
But he seemed to think my girlfriend was Chaeyeon.
Didn't he find that strange?
Both now and before. He'd never once asked about it, and I hadn't noticed at all.
Once I started thinking about this, Jaehyeon kept catching my attention.
Chaeyeon, who was sitting on my lap, might have heard my muttering.
"What's wrong?"
She asked.
"About you and Nayoung."
"Huh...? Ah. I see what you mean."
Chaeyeon understood.
"He doesn't seem to care much? Or maybe he just doesn't know yet."
"Yeah, looks that way."
Had that guy been living with his ears completely shut?
I was still full of questions, but what did it matter?
Whether Jaehyeon found it strange or asked what the three of us were to each other, it didn't matter at all.
Because no matter what, the fact that they were my women wouldn't change.
"Cheolyong. I'm roaming!"
So I decided to just focus on the game.
It wasn't until 7 o'clock that we left the PC bang.
After having Chaeyeon on my lap for an hour while playing games, the blood wasn't flowing in my legs and they were completely numb.
My neck was the same — it wasn't normal and was quite stiff.
"What? Was I heavy?"
She was a human being, so of course she was heavy.
Even if you put a dog or cat on your lap for a long time, the blood stops flowing and it hurts. If the subject is a human, it's more severe, not less.
But still.
"No? You weren't heavy at all. It's just that my neck hurts."
Honestly, my legs were more of a problem than my neck, but a man has his pride, so I didn't make a big deal of it.
"Hehe. So cool. My boyfriend."
She grinned and pressed her body against mine.
Earlier, I'd managed to endure because I was playing the game, but now that the game was over, it was hard to hold out.
Right now, I wanted to stuff some money into these two guys' hands, telling them to buy their own dinner, then drag Chaeyeon to a motel and fuck her senseless.
"Hoo."
Hold on. Hold it in.
This was almost the first time since I'd returned that I was hanging out with male friends.
Sex could be done anytime, so couldn't I take just one day off today?
I didn't want to throw away the chance to build memories just because of my sexual desires.
"So, what do you want to eat?"
I looked back and forth between Jaehyeon and Cheolyong as I asked.
"Um."
"......"
The two couldn't decide on a menu easily.
"Well... don't girls like pasta? That kind of thing?"
No, there was a problem with choosing a menu considering Chaeyeon.
Since she was joining us for dinner anyway, I couldn't have her eat something she didn't like.
"I do like it. But I don't have to eat pasta. I eat other things well too. Like gukbap or samgyeopsal."
"Samgyeopsal.....!"
Cheolyong, with his large build, lit up at the word samgyeopsal, his eyes sparkling.
"He's cuter than I thought. This guy."
His outward appearance was intimidating as hell, but his actions were adorable.
Chaeyeon looked at Cheolyong like she was watching a big younger brother.
"I feel like eating samgyeopsal today."
"Oh...! Really? I was craving samgyeopsal too. Jaehyeon, what about you?"
"Samgyeopsal...? I... don't really care......"
The opinion was already leaning toward samgyeopsal, so he could have just said let's eat samgyeopsal, but he had to say it like that.
It wasn't like he was trying to show off that he was a loser.
"Then let's go eat some meat."
We moved our feet, looking for a samgyeopsal restaurant — the most neutral menu that almost no one disliked.
We found a meat restaurant on the way that emphasized all-you-can-eat.
"Oh...! 8,900 won per person. Not bad, right?"
Honestly, Cheolyong, who was confident he could enjoy any kind of meat deliciously, just wanted to go there and fill his starving stomach, and he was strongly pushing to eat there.
Whether it was 8,900 won or 89,000 won, it didn't make much difference to me, but feeding them expensive food might make them feel burdened.
Because of that, I never went to places like that, but today I set foot in one for the first time.
The place was more packed than I expected.
Luckily, one table was empty, so we sat down there.
As soon as we sat, Chaeyeon skillfully took out spoons and placed them in front of each of us, and filled our cups with water.
When she was with me, we always went to high-end restaurants where the staff took care of even the smallest things, so there wasn't much for her to do, but since she went to places like this with her family, she seemed familiar with it.
I used to be like that too.
"I'll just eat this much lightly and then eat more!"
Cheolyong had somehow brought a plate piled high with meat.
The grill wasn't even lit yet.
"Can you eat all that?"
No matter how she looked at it, it wasn't a light amount, and Chaeyeon was flustered.
"It'd be weird if I couldn't."
"Is that so...? Well... I guess they're guys."
Having watched Nayoung and Heera noona eat until she was sick of it, she just let it go.
Soon, the burner arrived, and they put the meat on the heated grill plate.
She picked up the cooked meat, wrapped it in a leaf.
"Here. Open wide."
"Aaah~!"
She fed it to Chaeyeon.
"Mmm~! It's delicious...! Now it's my turn to feed you!"
This time, Chaeyeon wrapped a ssam and put it in my mouth.
"You're right. It is good."
Compared to the meat I usually ate, the quality was lower, but this was plenty edible.
"You two look good together."
"......"
Cheolyong said it was nice to see without any jealousy, and Jaehyeon, who seemed to find it hard to keep watching our lovey-dovey display, kept shoving meat into his mouth.
"Thanks."
Chaeyeon liked that so much she broke into a bright smile.
