A Morning After the Night Before
I woke up on the fluffy bed and, as I lifted the blanket to check the situation, I barely managed to sit up and look around.
The furniture and items I saw were unfamiliar, but there was a sense of familiarity. These items were new to me, yet the house structure felt similar to my room?
First, I checked my body. There didn't seem to be any major issues. I was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, only my socks were missing?
While I was surveying the surroundings, when I looked under the bed, I was startled to see a person lying on the floor.
"Eek! Eh... Huh?"
Upon closer inspection of the person sleeping on the floor, it was Shin Sujin in a pink pajama set. She was frowning, as if she was cold, with only a thin blanket covering her.
Why was Sujin sleeping on the floor?
Me sleeping on the bed and Sujin on the floor.
I had to figure out the current situation right away.
Let me see... Yesterday, there was definitely something that happened...
Ah!
After having fun with Sujin at the amusement park and then going to a bar for dinner? There, we drank soju and ate dinner together...
Huh?
Why is my memory cut off from there?
I remember drinking a couple of shots of soju with Sujin, but after that, I have no memory...
At this point, my judgment starts to kick in. Probably last night, while drinking with Sujin, something happened but my memory is blank.
It can't be that nothing happened last night.
Did I do something wrong last night?
Normally, when memory blanks, people cause trouble after drinking, but since I have no experience with blackouts, I can't predict what I might have done.
No choice. I have to wake up Sujin who's sleeping on the floor. I reached out and gently shook her.
"Sujin? Shin Sujin?"
"Umm... Just a little more..."
"Sujin, wake up for a moment."
Sujin, who kept saying just a little more, reluctantly opened her eyes and our gazes met. Then, her dazed eyes gradually regained some life, and she suddenly jumped back in surprise.
"Ah, ah! Minho-ya! That's... I mean, I had no choice but to bring you here yesterday. Don't misunderstand! I definitely wanted to drop you off, but since you couldn't enter your password, I had no choice but to bring you here!"
Because she just woke up, or perhaps because our eyes met right when she opened them, she couldn't control her emotions and spilled out words she didn't mean to.
"L-Lee, Sujin. Please calm down and speak slowly."
"Y-Yes... Okay..."
When I heard that, Sujin took a deep breath to calm herself.
"Now, are you feeling better?"
"Yeah... A bit better."
"Then, first... Is this Sujin's room?"
Among the things Sujin said earlier, there was talk of bringing me to my room but couldn't. That means she came to my house. So, she couldn't enter my room, and waking up in a place similar to my room structure means it must be Sujin's room next door.
"Ah, right. Yesterday, we came back together and I tried to send you to your room, but since I didn't know the password, I couldn't enter... Since there was no other way, I had no choice but to bring you to my room..."
Sujin's judgment seems correct. After all, since we live in the same building, even if next door, bringing me would mean I go to my room and she to hers. But there, I couldn't even open my door... So, she had no choice but to bring me to her room.
"Ah, I see... Then, did I do something wrong? This is the first time my memory has blanked out... I'm worried I might have done something strange."
When I heard that, Sujin was startled and looked up.
"N-No, that's... Ah, nothing happened. Really, nothing happened! You just came to my room and fell asleep as is, and I only took off your socks so you wouldn't be uncomfortable! I really, truly didn't lay a finger on your body, so you don't have to worry!!"
At that moment, I wondered why Sujin was so surprised, but remembering that this is a **Gender-Reversed World**, her reaction was only natural. In the original world, a woman accusing a man of doing something to her body would be easy to argue, and in worst case, it could lead to charges of sexual harassment or rape.
I, at least, have no intention of doing such things. Looking at my body, it seems like nothing happened as she said.
"If nothing happened, that's good. Uuu... Why does my head hurt so much? This must be a hangover..."
My head was throbbing painfully.
"Then, shall we go eat some haejangguk together? There's a delicious bean sprout soup place nearby."
"That sounds good. After eating that, I think I need to rest today..."
"Okay. Can you wait a moment? I'll change my clothes quickly."
At the same time as those words, Sujin threw off her pajamas. Right in front of my eyes.
Startled by that sight, I turned around. No matter how much a **Gender-Reversed World**, I didn't expect such little resistance to seeing a woman's naked body.
While listening to the sound of changing clothes from behind, I tried to recall if I had done something weird last night. With a headache-inducing feeling.
But nothing came to mind until Sujin finished changing.
"Alright, then let's go. I'll treat."
"Ah, no. This is on me. I must have caused you trouble last night..."
"No, rather... No, really it's fine."
Even though Sujin insisted she would treat, I decided to pay this time and we walked to the haejangguk place together with Sujin.
Phew... From now on, I absolutely must not drink alcohol.
"Then, Sujin, go in carefully~"
"Yeah, you rest well today too~"
After eating haejangguk with Minho to cure the hangover, I returned home and quickly took off my clothes and threw my body onto the bed.
This is the spot where Minho was lying earlier...
There was a faint scent of a man lingering on the blanket and bed cover.
"Really lucky. Since Minho's memory was blank yesterday, it's really lucky..."
If I recall yesterday's events, among the 27 years of my life, there has never been a day as thrilling yet terrifying as this one.
I had planned to drink a little lightly, but Minho drank a few shots of soju and I could see his condition deteriorating.
"Nu... You really drank a lot..."
Minho was making the typical sound of a drunk person's tongue twisting, his face slightly redder than usual, and even smiling foolishly.
He was perfectly drunk.
He had said his limit was about one and a half bottles of soju, but how did he reach that state so quickly...
If this continued, it seemed like the situation where a woman would feed a man soju until he passed out and then do something with him, so I quickly took Minho home. Minho was already in a state where he couldn't even walk properly, staggering, so I had to support him as I walked, because I couldn't leave him there to fall and get hurt.
It was also a good opportunity to stick to Minho's body, but the warmth of Minho clinging to me without aiming at my body felt really good.
However, carrying a Minho who was much bigger than me wasn't easy. But I couldn't abandon him either.
Somehow, I managed to bring Minho to the third floor, but there I hit another wall.
Since Minho couldn't move his body properly anymore, he couldn't tell me the password to his room. I couldn't leave him there, so I had no choice but to take special measures.
To... bring Minho to my room.
I knew how dangerous my action was at that time, but I couldn't leave Minho outside. I couldn't take him to a motel because I was too tired, and I couldn't drive drunk.
"Hehe..."
Minho was smiling foolishly while looking at me...
It was too adorable.
Even though he was making me irritated, looking at Minho made that feeling disappear. Rather, I should say it was good to be able to have skinship while moving Minho?
I forcibly laid Minho on my bed and only took off his socks. I wanted to take off his clothes too because he might be uncomfortable, but if I did that, I might have gone to jail today?
And actually, when I asked Minho if nothing happened yesterday, it wasn't nothing.
I can't tell Minho this, but perhaps because I was obsessed with the thought that this opportunity might not come again, I poked at Minho's sleeping body with my fingers.
I touched him too obviously, and if Minho woke up, it would be over. So I thought poking lightly with fingers was okay.
"Hehe..."
From Minho's face, arms, legs... and even his chest and below...
I never thought I would get to touch a man's body in many places.
The events of yesterday, I plan to take to the grave and keep secret for life.
