A Refreshing Morning... Until the Delinquents Showed Up
Hoo-ha~ It really was a refreshing morning for the first time in a while.
“Morning, tweetie~”
Even the pigeon that had been pecking at a food-waste bag since dawn gave me a solid 999!!!
“Morning, doggy~”
Grrrrr!Whine whine…! And of course the male dog was still getting pinned down and whimpering under a female dog today, too.
“Morning, beep be—”
BEEEEEP!!
“You wanna die?! Get the hell out of the way!”
Look, the one speeding through a crosswalk is clearly the crazy one here, so why are you yelling at me to move? For a second it felt like my nice refreshing morning was about to get a nasty stain on it, but I’m currently in full yes-man mode, so I just let it slide.
Hm? No, I didn’t take the wrong pills this morning. You’re wondering why I’m in such a good mood? Hehehe~ That’s obviously because…
“It’s Monday! The new semester finally starts today!”
Monday. If this were the SpongeBob I watched as a kid, he’d be shouting “I love Mondays!” But for most normal people it’s the day they start crying about the hell of going back to work. I, on the other hand, was grinning like an idiot.
“Freedom! Sweet freedom! I’m finally out of that house and away from those two women!”
If I’m being honest, living with Kim Arin—who’s overflowing with cute charm—and Kim Seon-a—who’s dripping with pure sex appeal—was actually pretty great. The problem was…
‘Haa… haa~♡ Elizabeth-kun♡ I was so anxious the whole time Mom took you away from me~ Huh? You missed me too? Ufufu~ Yes, yes. From now on let’s team up again and protect Seulgi oppa together~♡’
‘Hik?!’
It was late at night. I’d gotten up to pee, and on my way back to my room I noticed the door to the next room—my cousin Kim Arin’s room—was open, so I peeked inside. That was when I saw her staring at the awl she’d gotten back from Kim Seon-a, laughing in a way that made my blood run cold.
Or how about this gem:
‘All right~ Time to destroy myself with a nice hot shower… W-wait, I’m sorry, Aunt! I didn’t know you were already in here?!’
Back in my original world I used to shower maybe once a week if I was lucky, but now that I had this ridiculously pretty face and body I figured I might as well enjoy it. So I walked into the bathroom only to find—
‘Oh my~ Did our Seulgi come in to wash up too?♡ I used to bathe you all the time when you were little. Want me to do it again today?’
—Kim Seon-a, fresh out of the shower, skin glowing pink and seductive as she walked toward me. She was wearing nothing but a towel, but it barely covered even half of her overwhelming curves. I had to fight desperately to keep my traitor of a cock from standing at full attention.
‘N-no thank you! I’m an adult now. I’ll just… step out…’
‘Hehe~ You were free to come in, but you’re not free to leave~♡ Shall we see how big our Seulgi has gotten?♡’
‘N-no! Go away~♡’
And by “go away” I obviously meant I went back to my own room, so please don’t misunderstand.
The conclusion was simple: it was happy, but the constant flirting from those two women was going to give me a nervous breakdown.
Oh, and just so we’re clear—on Saturday I went to the department store with Kim Arin, and on Sunday I went with Kim Seon-a…
“Auntie? Is this really the place you were talking about…?”
“Of course~ Didn’t I tell you this morning? I know the perfect spot for your social-rehabilitation therapy~♡”
“You did say that. You definitely said that this morning. But this is…”
A love motel…?
“Hehe♡ Why are you so embarrassed, Seulgi? It’s just a place where people who are out living their social lives might drink, feel dizzy, and need somewhere to rest~ You’re not looking at your aunt as a woman, are you~♡”
“O-of course not! How could I ever see you that way?! It’s not like that, so please stop coming closer…”
“Why~? You say you don’t see me as a woman but then tell me not to come closer♡ And… right here♡”
“Hic?!”
That same long, slender thigh sliding between my legs!
“This part seems to be telling the truth♡ Shall we check whether our Seulgi is a liar or not~♡”
“N-no~!”
“Yes!”
We spent the whole day playing an extremely enthusiastic game of tag. Resisting her constant temptation was absolute torture…!
‘You did well, buddy.’
My little buddy (who seemed to have hit puberty late): Whimper… I hate you, Dad!
“Getting away from women like that and finally having some time to myself is the only reason I feel this refreshed!”
Of course, right before I left for school that morning—
“Why does the physical education department have to start an hour earlier than you, oppa?! I don’t want this! I want to go to school with Seulgi oppaaaaa!!!”
—Kim Arin threw a fit. She looked like she belonged in early childhood education with that baby-face of hers, but ever since she was little she’d been swinging an awl around to chase off the flies buzzing around me. She’d become one of the top ten masters of the underworld or whatever, and because she was in the PE department she had morning physical training. That meant she had to head to campus an hour before me.
There was a whole commotion, but the end result was that I got to enjoy the freedom of walking to school alone!
“It’s only a twenty-minute walk to the university, which is a little disappointing. Still, once I’m on campus Arin will be in a completely different department, so we probably won’t run into each other much. I can savor my freedom there, too~”
And working on capturing Han Seol-a was just a bonus.
With no yandere heroines around, what could possibly go wrong? I headed to school feeling completely relaxed…
“Yuhuuuuu~ Got myself a pretty boy, jackpot baby~!”
“Didn’t your daddy ever teach you that a beautiful boy like you shouldn’t walk through dark alleys all alone~? Aang~?”
“Normally the toll to pass through this alley is 100,000 won, but for our pretty boy we’ll accept other forms of payment. Euh, euhuhuhu~”
Past me who thought nothing could go wrong—go reflect on your life choices!
The university was only twenty minutes away, which was close, but there was one narrow alley in the middle. I’d thought “no way,” but of course the “no way” happened. A bunch of delinquents were lying in wait!
They weren’t the Hopeless Three Brothers—they were the Hopeless Three Sisters in this world, I guess. Either way, three muscular thugs who looked like they’d been assembled wrong stepped out and my face instantly stiffened.
Should I run?
The only option that came to mind was the thirty-six stratagems’ “run like hell,” but would it actually be that easy? Like with that convenience store clerk, these three clearly had superior physical ability. If I ran they’d catch me in seconds.
“Euhuhu~ What’s wrong, pretty boy? Did you fall for your big sisters’ magnificent builds?”
“A woman’s gotta have some muscle, right~? C’mon, pretty boy, come give your big sisters a hug♡ We’ll be gentle, we’ll only put the tip in♡”
“Woohyo, woohyooo~♡”
I wasn’t sure if I should call that a build or just a slab of meat, but the three of them were clearly approaching me with lust written all over their faces. Also, what exactly do you women have that lets you say you’ll “only put the tip in”?! And what’s with the one who keeps going “woohyo”?!
“U-um, can’t I just pay the 100,000 won? You said the toll was 100,000 won, right? Hehe…”
In my original world I wouldn’t have paid even a single won, but in this world I was at an absolute disadvantage. If I let myself get pulled into those meaty arms, things were clearly going to end badly.
“Woohyo~… Hey, you joking? You think we’re pushovers? We were being nice and smiling, and now you think we’re just some neighborhood punks?”
“We’re the bosses of this alley.”
“The Delinquent Trio!”
They really were the Delinquent Trio?!
“W-wait! I’m not joking, I really will pay the 100,000 won and just—ack?! Get your hand off me!”
They might have sounded ridiculous, but the situation was genuinely dangerous. One of them had my wrist in a death grip while the other two blocked any escape route.
“Let’s see that back!”
“Euhuhu~ We’re just checking if our pretty boy washes properly~”
“Woohyoooo~♡ The fact that he’s got some fight in him makes breaking him even more worthwhile♡”
I thrashed around. “Stop, stop it…!”
From every direction—up, down, left, right—rough hands reached for me. They didn’t care about my consent at all; they only wanted to satisfy their own desires. The touches that would have been disgusting even in the original world somehow felt a thousand times worse in this gender-reversed one. Damn it, I felt like I was about to cry.
“No! No! Nooooo~!!!”
“Euhuhu~ I told you to stay still!”
“Whoa, look at him crying. That’s actually turning me on. I think I just discovered a new kink!”
“Hey, this isn’t gonna work. I was gonna have a little taste here and finish up, but I can’t hold back. Let’s move him somewhere else!”
Despite their ridiculous nicknames, they clearly weren’t ordinary neighborhood thugs. They started dragging me off while casually talking about doing something only criminals would think of.
“Let go! Let go of my hand! Somebody help! Please!”
No matter how much I struggled or screamed for help, it was a rarely used alley. All I could see were the delinquents smiling their sticky smiles. My voice reached no one.
Is this really how it ends? I have to suffer at the hands of these third-rate thugs?!
I was terrified. The fear that one of those horrible endings I’d only ever seen in my memories might actually happen to me.
“Wow, his skin is so soft and smooth~♡ When we get to the hideout let’s do all sorts of fun things together, pretty boy♡ Euhuhu~”
The creepy hand stroking my skin made bile rise in my throat. I never knew how disgusting it felt to have someone you didn’t care about touching your body. Please, anyone—
“Save m—”
THUD!
It happened in an instant. I heard something cut through the air above my head, followed by a dull impact.
“Kuhk…!”
The thug who’d been dragging me by the wrist was sent flying like a rag doll.
“Seulgi, are you okay?!”
A desperate voice… and then—
Squeeze!
Ah… it’s warm…
It was a completely different warmth from the filthy hands that had been groping me moments ago.
Thump…
Through tear-blurred eyes, I saw her.
“Seol-a… noona?”
She must have run here in a hurry. Even though the weather was still chilly enough to need a coat, sweat was pouring down her face. Yet even with clear anger in her eyes, she was smiling at me with genuine kindness.
Thump. Thump. Thump…
“Yeah, it’s me. You don’t have to worry anymore.”
That confident expression made every worry disappear. And in the space my fear left behind—
Thump-thump-thump…!
—love began to bloom. Not just as part of some dating-sim strategy. Real, genuine feeling.
Ding~
