Chapter Title: Common Sense Alteration (14)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
From my idol days right up to now, Siwoo oppa was the one who always gave me courage whenever I was struggling. He was so kind and caring... my manager, the pillar I could always lean on. That's why I liked Siwoo oppa. No, it went beyond liking—I loved him. With this man... I felt like I could spend my whole life together, so I confessed my heart to him.
Thankfully, Siwoo oppa felt the same way.
"I'm sorry, Yeji."
"......Yeah."
"This is the time to focus on the movie, right?"
"Yeah..."
"So, how about we start dating after that?"
"......Huh?!"
"I'll confess to you first then."
"Oppa... Yeah, I'll wait!"
He said he had to turn me down because he loved me so much, and asked me to wait just a little longer. Siwoo oppa truly was a man I could trust. He worried more about my future than I did. He thought more about my life than I did. I absolutely couldn't let this man slip away. Back then, I was genuinely moved. Back then, oppa was so cool.
-Slap!
"You crazy bastard! Haah, haah... Fuck off, get lost!"
But the oppa now was nothing like that.
The increased skinship, the frequent demands for kisses... I endured it all, figuring those were things that could happen between lovers. But this? No way. Why, why... did he try to force himself on me? Siwoo oppa climbed on top of me without a word, trying to rape me. Thank goodness I'd prepared myself just in case. I managed to escape unscathed from that pervert.
"Y-Yeji?"
"Ugh... Oppa, are you insane? Are you in your right mind?!"
"No, I..."
"How... how could you do this to me?!"
"......What?! What the hell did I do wrong?!"
"Ha?"
"Can't lovers just have sex?"
"......W-What?!"
"That's right. We're not high school kids, are we?"
"W-We aren't even dating!"
"We promised to date!"
"Even so... doing it without consent is rape, don't you know that?!"
"Then you were planning to consent with Gam Deok-bae?!"
"......What?"
"You don't want to do it with that bastard either! It's your one and only first time in life... You wanna waste it on a guy like that? Even when I'm here, the one you promised to date? No matter how important the movie is... Yeji, I can't stand to see that. Just do it with me first, okay? You'd prefer that too."
"Oppa..."
It was like he wasn't Siwoo oppa at all—like he was Ryuga Haito himself.
His speech, his expression, his logic—everything was pathetic.
I understood wanting the first time with his future girlfriend... but then be honest from the start! There's gotta be some minimum mood-setting, right? He lunges at me without any prep, fails, and now screams like that? It made me so disgusted I felt like puking. This was the first time I'd felt this way about Siwoo oppa.
"Is sex that important to you, oppa?"
".....What?"
"Were you trying to date me just for sex?"
"No, that's not it..."
"Lately, oppa... you've been really gross, you know that? Why do you keep groping my legs while driving? Huh? Why do you always fondle my chest during kisses! Fuck, am I your toy? Don't you care about how I feel every single day?!"
"Y-Yeji..."
"And what? You show up out of nowhere demanding sex? Saying it'd be better that way? Ha, yeah... I get it now. To you, I'm just that kind of girl, huh? Someone you can visit whenever you want and fuck. Someone who spreads her legs easy if you call. That's why you wanted to date me! And I only just realized... Wow, oppa, you're something else!"
"N-No... That's not it, Yeji..."
"Shut up!"
"No, hear me out! What I mean is..."
"I said shut up! Get the fuck out! Get out of my house right now!"
"Yeji..."
"Or should I call the cops? Would that make you feel better?"
".........See you tomorrow."
Aah, seriously, what's wrong with people?
Did not just common sense change—did Siwoo oppa change too?
I'd gotten mad reading the script, wondering how someone like Ryuga could exist... Turns out he was right beside me. A man who saw women... as mere tools for sexual release. A man who viewed women... solely as sex objects. Shockingly, that was Siwoo oppa. I was so disappointed my hands shook. It'd been a long time since I'd felt this shocked.
Even Deok-bae sunbae, who was playing Ryuga, wasn't that bad.
For method acting, he turned into a filthy pervert during shoots... but once filming wrapped, he went back to being a normal actor. Even when he used practice as an excuse for naughty stuff with me, I'd never felt any dirty, sleazy lust from him. Sunbae always respected me as a fellow actor. That's why I could trust and rely on him.
Deok-bae sunbae was a guy whose outside and inside didn't match—in a good way.
My would-be boyfriend Siwoo oppa was the exact opposite.
"Haah... So annoying."
In the end, we'd make up...
But was dating Siwoo oppa really right for me?
Shouldn't I think about it more?
Siwoo oppa's true colors, which I'd never have known without common sense flipping upside down. Now that I knew, worries bubbled up inside me. Siwoo oppa... was a good person, sure... but as a boyfriend? Pretty lacking. Honestly, the one I could trust rationally was Deok-bae sunbae. And if I was being even more honest, maybe it'd be better with Deok-bae sunbae instead...
......What nonsense am I spouting now?
I could get disappointed in sunbae too.
The sunbae I knew was only the actor sunbae. There was still so much I didn't know about him. So right now... yeah, right now was the time to focus on the movie. Boyfriends and all that? Those were luxuries. Snapping out of it, I checked the script for practice.
"Ahh..."
Of all things, next week's shoot was the bed scene.
"......You're here?"
"Let's go."
"Y-Yeah..."
After a shower and minimal makeup, I headed downstairs. In the parking lot... Siwoo oppa greeted me. He'd apologized the next day, but things were still awkward. I just nodded curtly, got in the car, and thought about today's scene. Today... was the day I had sex with Deok-bae sunbae. If I said I wasn't nervous, I'd be lying.
As a pro actress, the act of having sex itself was bearable...
......But would it hurt? Sunbae's dick is huge...
As a woman, I couldn't help worrying.
"T-Today's the day, huh..."
"What?"
"No, I mean..."
"Focus on driving."
"......Yeah."
For the record, Siwoo oppa came by the next day to apologize. He said he felt anxious because I was so precious to him... Yeah, right? It didn't feel sincere. Wasn't he just desperate for sex? The old Siwoo oppa, I would've believed it, but not now. The guy who groped my legs every chance he got... only an idiot would trust him.
But... fighting more wouldn't help anyone, right?
I decided to let it go like a pro.
Better to pretend it never happened than blow it up.
"These fucking assholes at it again, damn it!"
"Deok-bae, watch your mouth."
"These fucking assholes are at it again, sir!"
"Haah... Who's gonna stop you."
"Look at this crowd for a bed scene. You think that doesn't piss me off?"
"It does... but you still gotta watch how you say it."
"Sorry, sunbae. It's so fucked I can't hold back."
But... what was going on here?
When I arrived on set, Deok-bae sunbae was raging like I hadn't seen in ages. He'd been holding back lately, but now he was cursing up a storm at someone. Curious, I approached and saw him arguing with the investors.
Seemed like it was about the bed scene.
"Deok-bae, still... flying off the handle like that... hahaha..."
"Director, if that's how it's gonna be, I can't shoot."
"What?! Deok-bae! That's not right!"
"At least confiscate their phones. Don't you know dozens of leaked videos from them secretly filming actresses? I won't stand for that shit."
"Hey now, who's secretly filming?!"
"Your boss did it, you fuck! Think I don't know?!"
Deok-bae sunbae was yelling so fiercely it was a little scary... It felt unfamiliar, making me tense. He was serious about acting... but was his true nature bad after all? I feared the sunbae casually spewing curses. He was a great actor, sure, but a great guy...? I had doubts.
"Yeji, don't hate him too much."
"...Huh?!"
"He's doing it for you, Deok-bae."
"......For me?"
"That company president has a bad rep. Every bed scene, he shows up and secretly films the actresses... Sigh, Deok-bae hates that, so he's like this."
"Secret filming? This... Hey! That's a crime, a crime!"
"Hey, director! We're innocent! When did we ever..."
"Innocent? Wanna check? Open your phones, you bastards!"
"Come on! This guy! There's a line!"
In the end, the investor staff who'd fought with sunbae left, and the rest surrendered their phones. Deok-bae sunbae had been rude... but even investor employees couldn't mess with a star like him.
Thanks to that, I could shoot with peace of mind.
"He never thinks about his image, always acting like that."
"......Is that why the rumors about him were bad?"
"Pretty much. He always takes on the dirty, shady stuff himself."
So my assumption about his bad nature was wrong too.
The sunbaes' advice that he's a good guy deep down. Seeing him that way now made Deok-bae sunbae look different. But at the same time, questions arose. Did sunbae... help just because I'm a junior? Or does he like me... and got mad to protect me? I wanted to know the answer. But pondering alone wouldn't reveal it.
Still, I felt glad my first experience partner was sunbae.
