Visiting Sua's Home
A beige cardigan that gave off a bright impression on top. Below, clean black slacks. It was the perfect outfit—formal enough to show respect, yet casual enough to convey that I'd come without any hidden agenda. After checking myself in the mirror one last time and tucking the cardigan into my pants, I ran a hand through my styled hair and stepped outside.
I'll behave as politely as possible. Korea was the land of scholars—nobody disliked good manners. Fortunately, I had a talent for acting. I might not be able to secure the "future son-in-law" stamp in a single day, but leaving a good impression should be doable.
I got into the car quickly so the wind wouldn't mess up my hair and headed straight for Sua's house. When I was nearly there, I called her.
—Oh, Oppa.
"I'm almost there. What are your parents doing?"
—They're waiting for you after finishing the meal prep.
"Really? I'm so nervous I might choke on the food."
—What's there to be nervous about? They're both kind people. When I told them you have a car, they both praised you, saying it's impressive for someone so young. They seem to have a good impression of you, so just come comfortably.
"Well, they're the creators who gave me such a pretty girlfriend, so of course they'd be kind."
—Aigoo, really with the cheesy lines… If you're that nervous, should I come out to meet you?
Her words at the end were far more honest than the ones before. Even my flattery seemed to please her.
"Yeah. Come out and dance or something. So I can find the house easily."
—What are you even saying? I'll come out to meet you.
With a snort, Sua hung up. When I arrived at her house, I smirked at the sight of her standing right in front of the door despite claiming she wouldn't come out. I rolled down the window without turning off the engine, and her eyes scanned me from head to toe. The way her lips curved upward told me she liked the outfit.
"Where should I park?"
"Dad said you can park in front of the house."
"Got it."
After parking, I got out carrying a fruit basket in both hands. She tilted her head.
"What's that?"
"A fruit basket. I couldn't come empty-handed, so I brought it for your dad and mom."
"Is there strawberry in there by any chance?"
Sua peered closely into the basket, searching for strawberries. Since when did fruit baskets come with strawberries? I gave her an incredulous look, and she scratched her cheek, embarrassed.
"I-I was just joking… Joke, joke. I was trying to help you relax, Oppa…"
"Didn't sound like a joke at all…"
"It was totally a joke…"
"What joke? That was pure sincerity. I'll buy you strawberries later. That good enough?"
"Hehe."
Letting out a mischievous laugh, she stood beside me. As I tried to open the front door, a sigh kept escaping me.
"Hoo…"
"Oppa, are you nervous right now? That's so unlike you…?"
"This is the first time I've been invited to a girlfriend's house like this… I'm afraid I'll mess up."
At that, Sua's eyes curved into a smile. When she patted my butt encouragingly, I shot her a glare.
"So even Oppa gets nervous? Ehehe~"
"You… You seem to enjoy seeing me in trouble? Want to die?"
"Can you talk to me like that? I won't help you then?"
"Ugh…"
Seeing my troubled reaction, Sua laughed playfully. It felt good that she was comfortable enough to tease me. Go ahead and act up all you want. I won't go easy on you when you're crying and begging during sex later.
Sua opened the front door.
"Come on in."
"Welcome~"
"Yahoo~ We meet again, Ijin."
Stepping inside, I was greeted by who I assumed were Sua's parents. Even her older sister was waving from behind. I set down the gifts in my hands and quickly scanned everyone.
Sua's father stood with his arms crossed, exuding a sturdy presence while wearing a benevolent smile. Honestly, I had no interest in men, so I moved on quickly. Jeong Subin was wearing a crop top that revealed plenty of skin, just like she did outside. Yet it suited her cat-like eyes and short hair perfectly, giving off a seductive charm that Sua didn't have.
Sua's mother captured my attention the most. From the atmosphere alone, she resembled the gentle Sua more than Subin. Above all, despite having raised two children to adulthood, she had the unbelievable appearance of a woman in her late twenties. Was it even possible for a married woman to look that young? It was natural for heroines' families to be beautiful, but this was on a level that defied time itself. I could easily believe she was another older sister of Sua's.
Especially that signature half-closed eyes that every kind married woman in a rom-com had. With one hand resting on her cheek as she smiled, that benevolent expression was almost enough to make me fall for her. What kind of good deeds did that man do in his past life to be surrounded by such beautiful women? I'm jealous. So jealous. Should I just steal them all? Maybe I should set my target on this guy instead of Kang Suho.
Above all, the three women here shared one common trait: massive milk dispensers. Imagining myself surrounded by those large breasts made me happy.
Snapping out of my pleasant fantasy, I bowed at a perfect 90-degree angle.
"Hello. My name is Kang Ijin!"
My voice was neither too loud nor lacking in courtesy. Her father uncrossed his arms and lightly patted my shoulder.
"I'm Jeong Hyeonwu. Make yourself at home, like you're at your own house."
"Yes. I'll be in your care, as long as I don't cause any inconvenience."
After exchanging greetings with Sua's family, I approached her mother, who introduced herself as Go Eunah, carrying the fruit basket. Up close, she was as lovely as her name suggested.
"Auntie, this is a gift. I hope you accept it without feeling burdened."
Go Eunah looked surprised at the two large baskets of fruit. Unfortunately, even this wasn't enough to make her half-closed eyes open wide.
"Aren't fruits expensive these days…? You must have spent a lot on these…"
Maybe buying the two biggest ones at the mart had been overkill. Seeing her hesitation, I scratched the back of my head awkwardly.
"Sua joined the student council and has been helping me a lot with my work. Thinking about how grateful I am, this doesn't even feel like enough…"
"That's right, Mom. Just accept it since it's from Ijin Oppa. This Oppa bullies me so much at school."
I shot Sua a sharp glare, and she stuck out her tongue playfully. When even Jeong Hyeonwu laughed and told her to accept it, Go Eunah smiled like a girl and expressed her thanks.
"Then I'll accept it without refusing. Thank you so much, Ijin. It'd be a shame for just us to eat such good fruit, so let's all have some after dinner."
"Thank you."
I don't need the fruit—just open your eyes wide once for me, won't you? It'd be incredibly arousing.
"What about me? No separate gift? If you have one, hand it over now. I don't do that whole 'refusing out of courtesy' thing."
Jeong Subin popped up from behind with a grin, shamelessly holding out her hand.
"Subin, we have a guest today, so behave yourself."
At Jeong Hyeonwu's scolding, Subin smiled brightly and raised both hands behind her head, revealing her smooth armpits. I could probably eat a whole bowl of rice mixed with that.
"Technically, I'm the one who set this up, so shouldn't I get something out of it? Right, Ijin~"
"It's Sua's acquaintance, so it's Sua's setup. Why would it be yours?"
"Aha. Come to think of it, Dad doesn't even know how this gathering came about, does he? These two were right in front of our house…"
"Uwaaaah! Th-that's enough, let's go inside! It's rude to keep a guest standing at the door, Dad! Ijin Oppa, come this way too."
When Subin was about to bring up that incident, Sua let out a shrill scream and grabbed my sleeve, yanking me inside.
"W-wait, Sua, stop pulling… Then, excuse me."
I tried to greet them politely again, but Sua kept dragging me, so I ended up bowing awkwardly while being pulled along. Everyone laughed and welcomed me warmly.
"Yeah, come on in."
"You two seem really close. Don't you think so, honey?"
"Ahem…"
"Kikiki."
Watching Subin laugh mischievously, it seemed her goal had just been to tease Sua. Teasing Sua really was fun. Her personality seemed to match mine quite well. Want to check if we're compatible in bed too? If you're interested, contact me separately. We'll have a competition between the sisters to see who gets pregnant with my child first. A baby-making contest between sisters—just imagining it makes me happy. The winner gets the position of my official wife.
"Ijin Oppa, sit here. Next to me."
Following Sua to the dining table, I saw a lavish feast spread out. How long had it been since I'd seen a meal prepared with such care? After my parents stopped coming home, Kang Suho and I lived alone. Suho could barely cook, and even when I cooked in their place, it was just a couple of side dishes at most. Eventually, even that became too bothersome, and we often just ordered delivery.
"Oppa, it's been a while since you've seen something like this, right? I asked Mom to put in some effort. Since you and Suho always just order delivery."
"You…"
Sua must have told them about our family situation—how our parents rarely came home and we often ordered delivery. So they'd prepared this feast for me.
"Thanks."
I gave her head a light pat and sat down.
