Dinner at Hyeji's Restaurant
I never imagined that someone would recognize the person who appeared on yesterday's broadcast. I thought that as long as the face doesn't show, they wouldn't recognize me at all.
Frankly, that's correct, isn't it? The only thing that can identify me is the voice, right?
It's rather surprising that even this alone can identify me.
When Hyeji showed me the phone screen and asked if the person in it was me, I should have denied it immediately, but I ended up showing too much panic.
Now that it's come to this, I can't say it's not me.
"Then, is it okay to keep the fact that I appeared on the broadcast a secret?"
"Yes, of course, senior!"
Hyeji's energetic voice, I have to believe it.
Actually, it wouldn't matter much if the fact that I appeared on the broadcast became known outside. After all, I'm just one of the general citizens and I didn't do anything special.
But the reason I asked Hyeji to keep it a secret wasn't for me, but for Seoyeon.
We both didn't do anything like that on the broadcast, but who knows if some malicious person posts weird things online and incites.
If that happens because of me and Seoyeon gets dragged in, it will have a very bad impact on Seoyeon who is doing the internet broadcast now.
I can't stand seeing someone else suffer because of me. So I told Hyeji to keep it secret just in case.
"Um... Is the broadcaster I met yesterday someone I was close to?"
"Um... We got to know each other recently. I was playing options, and somehow we met in a game and became friends, so I appeared as a guest yesterday."
"Oh, I see..."
Hyeji shows a slightly disappointed reaction to my words.
"By any chance, do you play options too? If so, it would be good to play together."
"Ah, I don't really play games. Rather, it seems like I spend more time watching videos or dramas with movies."
Upon thinking, my hobby is going to the movie theater to watch movies, right?
"Then, there's no helping it. Next time, if there's a fun movie, let's go watch it together."
"Ah, yes! I want to watch movies with Minho senior too!"
Hyeji smiled at Minho for the first time since they met today.
When she smiles, she's really pretty, but watching her looking out for others' eyes because of her chest is really pitiful from the side.
If it was the original world, she would have lived her life with men naturally approaching her, but she was born in this gender-reversed world...
I have to help her well too.
"Um... Minho senior. Then, is there time this weekend?"
"This weekend? This weekend doesn't seem possible. I have plans."
I heard the same story from Sujin unnie this morning, and relayed it to Hyeji.
Hyeji's face when she heard my words was one of losing the world.
"Ah, I see... Well, if it's someone like senior, of course there would be plans... Is it perhaps meeting the broadcaster from yesterday?"
"No, that's not it. I decided to hang out with someone I got to know somehow recently."
"By any chance, is that person... a woman?"
I nodded at Hyeji's words.
Then Hyeji's expression changed to one of great shock, and she dropped the meat.
What is this girl doing?
It seems that meeting another woman on the weekend is a huge shock for her.
After hearing Minho's weekend schedule, Hyeji walked limply beside him to the first period lecture hall.
She sat in any empty seat, and then a woman approached Minho.
"Hello~ Is this Minho senior?"
"Uh... Yes, I'm Minho, but who are you...?"
"Ah, I'm Song Minji, the 2nd year class representative. Since it seems like you'll be taking classes with us often after you returned, I came to greet you."
It's the 2nd year class rep, Song Minji. As she said, we'll meet often since we're taking the same classes.
"I heard that you experienced a bad thing this time... Probably the rumor has spread throughout the school, not just our department."
"Ah, that incident, right?"
It was probably about the stalker incident I experienced recently? Sure enough, it was a big incident where a professor was stalking.
"I heard from other 3rd and 4th year seniors that they were taking good care of Minho senior. If there's any discomfort in your school life, please contact me anytime."
Right after Song Minji's words, a call came to Minho's phone from an unknown number.
"I'm calling right now, is this your number?!"
"Ah, thank you..."
The sight of Song Minji pouring out words like a machine gun makes me feel a bit overwhelmed.
After Song Minji, the 2nd year girls who are taking the same class started approaching Minho one by one to talk.
Seeing the inssa girls of our department surrounding Minho senior without a break, talking nonstop, it doesn't sit well with me.
I think it's because I'm not doing well, and seeing her naturally act, jealousy rises? I want to talk well in front of senior too.
And although she's talking with the feeling of worrying about Minho senior who experienced a big incident recently, from the perspective of another woman, it looks like she's pretending to be worried while trying to hit on Minho senior.
Ugh... The inssa are defiling Minho senior!
He's my Minho senior... Even though she's sitting right next to me, I can only stare at my phone without joining the conversation, and I'm annoyed with myself...
I wish I could make Minho senior happy with fun jokes like those girls...
The past where I couldn't communicate properly with others because of my appearance is a bit regrettable.
My younger sister with similar breasts has a completely opposite personality, so she gets along well with other friends without breast complex, but I don't have that sociability...
But it's not like I can revive my sociability now.
After chattering for a few minutes with the class rep and inssa girls, the professors came in, and they each returned to their seats.
To check what the lecture is about today, I looked at the major notebook, and Minho senior next to me slightly pushed his notebook towards me.
Curious, I looked closely, and it said,
'Wow, the inssa are talking nonstop, I'm distracted lol It's quite a burden 8('
It was written.
I thought Minho senior was happily chatting with the girl, but it turned out to be the opposite.
This... feels like I won?
Earlier, I was boiling with jealousy seeing the inssa who were talking well with Minho senior, but now I feel like I'm ahead.
Minho senior is not telling those kids what's in his heart, only telling me, right?
This can be interpreted as having higher intimacy with me?
It means he has some affection for me, right?
It's already surprising that a man like Minho senior is with someone with large breasts like me, but if he shows this, I'll keep imagining, senior!
Minho senior, without knowing my feelings, smiled when he saw the words I wrote in the notebook.
Ah, really, being with Minho senior makes the world look beautiful, and a cheerful music sound echoes in my head, and the fragrant male scent lingers in my nose.
Before meeting Minho senior, I was gloomy every day, but it seems like I've changed too much recently.
Like the senior showed, I wrote something in the corner of the empty notebook and showed it to senior.
"Senior, so are you going to eat with those kids?"
I overheard from the side earlier that you said let's eat lunch together today, but I was curious how senior would respond.
I wanted to say let's eat with just me, but I don't have the courage to say it.
Senior looked at my note, drew a big X, drew an arrow towards me, and left an O.
Is this... choosing me over those kids?
And the following senior's note was,
'I don't like eating with people I just met because it's burdensome. Let's eat together later, okay.'
It was written like that.
That means it's not burdensome for me?
Has Minho senior placed me as a good and close person?
Then, the conversation my mom had with me a while ago came to mind.
Mom said that I, who resemble her, must never miss the opportunity when it comes. If there's a chance to eat dinner with Minho senior, come to our house's store and eat.
She said she'll prepare a sumptuous meal for me.
But men don't like going to the store and eating because the meat smell sticks to their clothes, she said...
Would senior be the same?
Still, since it's unknown, let's ask.
Thinking about how to say it to Minho senior, the lecture content isn't coming in at all. But right now, that's not important.
After the first period lecture ended, I immediately asked senior.
"Senior, would you like to eat dinner at our house's store tonight?"
"Your store? You said you're selling pork belly meat like that?"
"Yes, yes! Our house's store meat is quite delicious. Senior should come and try it too... right?"
I asked cautiously, thinking that even if senior refuses, I shouldn't mind too much.
"Meat... Shall we go to the store and eat after a long time? Is it somewhere?"
"Um... The meat smell might stick, is that okay?"
"Of course, aren't we eating it after accepting that? Meat is always right."
Minho senior shows a reaction completely different from a normal man, which is amazing to see from the side...
So, even better.
Imagining confessing to senior that I like him right now makes me very happy.
In the imagination, it's already filled.
