#99. Christmas
#99. Christmas
A gift is giving someone what they want to receive.
That's what I learned.
The birthday letter...
Honestly, writing this was several times more agonizing for me than just buying something with money.
I've never written a love letter before, and since I had to write it to make Oppa happy, I couldn't help but clutch my head in front of my desk.
If it were any other time, I absolutely, absolutely wouldn't do this...
As I wrote each letter one by one, I pounded my desk pang pang out of self-loathing so many times.
But it was that person's birthday.
Wouldn't it be nice to show him the side he wants, just for one day?
Like lovers in a romantic romance movie.
But unexpectedly, Oppa was considerate of me and let me suck his dick on the Ferris Wheel.
Honestly, after the kiss, I thought we'd just slip into a sweet atmosphere and come back to the amusement park for a second round of total pervert play.
But Oppa spewed all sorts of dirty talk and came his precious semen right into my mouth.
How could he be so sweet?
My feelings for him seemed to grow even deeper.
Just as I was pondering how to spend Christmas.
I got a call from Oppa.
[Hello?]
[Uh, Na-eun-ah. You busy right now?]
[No? I'm not doing much of anything.]
[Ah... actually...]
Oppa went on at length, explaining that he had to do Serialized Updates for a year-end event, so he'd be busy for a while.
I thought that could happen.
In fact, Han Gyeo-ul-nim did events pretty often, and around the 100th or 200th chapter milestones, they always did Serialized Updates with a thank you note.
[So, what I'm saying is... could we maybe spend Christmas at home?]
...Spend it at home by myself?
[Each at our own homes?]
[Ah, no no. At my place... it might feel a bit... off...? It's our first Christmas, so I want to go out, but when I calculate it now, there's no way I can meet the deadline...]
I always thought going to Oppa's place was fun, so why did it feel disappointing?
Normally, I'd be happy to go, but spending Christmas cooped up in that tiny one-room until then.
But we were too old to throw a tantrum about it.
[...Okay. Sure.]
[You mad...?]
[No.]
I put so much effort into preparing for Oppa's birthday, but does Oppa not really care about Christmas...?
I knew interpreting it that way would just tire us both out, but my heart and brain couldn't sync up.
Disappointment kept dripping from my voice.
[I'll buy you a really delicious meal instead.]
[No, don't worry about it. It's work, it happens.]
The more we talked, the more it hurt inside, so I just wanted to hang up quickly.
[Then come to my place by 5 on Christmas. Got it?]
[Yeah. You sound busy, so get back to work. Bye.]
After hanging up, I opened the Novel World app and tapped [I Imprisoned Her].
Song Han-byeol...
The illustrator character that launched because I recommended her.
It was a subtle feeling.
Like my boyfriend had been stolen by that character modeled after me.
I used to love [Imprisoning Her] so much, but now it felt like this novel was coming between Oppa Min-ho and me.
Haa...
Letting out a deep sigh, I tapped the latest chapter out of lingering regret.
Lee Jin-seong was pretending to whisper affection to Song Han-byeol while gradually ramping up the skinship intensity.
The innocent Song Han-byeol, oblivious to his ultimate goal, was thrilled, thinking she'd met her destined man.
At first, she was really uncomfortable with all the skinship, but once she decided it was just normal affection between adults, she accepted his touches willingly.
She could feel him slyly groping her breasts or ass, but Han-byeol even saw that as Jin-seong's way of expressing love for her.
Sometimes she even felt happy, thinking it was proof he wanted her.
Haa... I wanted the next chapter so bad.
It looked like in the next one, Han-byeol would do some "pre-studying" and look up adult stuff on her own.
Cutting it off right here. As expected of Han Gyeo-ul-nim.
They knew exactly where to cliffhanger to make people desperately wait.
Lying in bed, I hoped this time waiting for Oppa would end quickly.
Still, if we spent Christmas Eve at Oppa's place, at least we could have all the sex we wanted.
Maybe I should buy a Santa girl outfit and bring it...
When I wore the school uniform cosplay at the amusement park, Oppa's reaction was amazing, so that might work...
Hmm...
I logged into an online adult shop.
How many times did I reread Na-eun's birthday letter?
The first love letter from a girlfriend was pure emotional.
There were weird lines mixed in here and there, but I didn't even notice them.
[...I love you.]
That one neat line from her made me feel overwhelmed with gratitude for my blessed life.
So I thought for Christmas, I really needed to prepare an event for her too.
As I pondered what would make her happiest, what I came up with was...
[Christmas Special Training]
Na-eun always surprised me, so this time I wanted to shock her.
I didn't have a huge stockpile, so I still had work to do, but it was enough to play on Christmas.
I'd already played the excuse over the phone perfectly, so now it was time to prepare step by step.
I went into an online adult shopping mall and browsed all sorts of SM play gear.
A suspiciously familiar homepage.
I'd visited often for detailed descriptions of props in my novels, but actually buying from here felt like my first time.
Honestly, I'd thought about getting an onahole, but even if I was desperate, I decided against it.
No skimping on money, I thought, as I added various items to my cart.
Dog collar, gag, body restraints, whip, etc.—stuff that would make any normal girl freak out. After loading up, I entered my address for delivery.
[205,600 won]
...Kinda pricey, but whatever.
I'd gotten a watch worth hundreds of thousands, so this was nothing.
Next up was figuring out how to play it out.
Based on what Na-eun had shown so far, I recalled when she got the most turned on.
Rape... yeah, definitely rape...
She always let out her most intense moans when I couldn't hold back my anger and yanked down my pants.
So, go with that scenario...? Hmm...
I opened Notepad and started plotting the day's events like outlining a novel.
Christmas Day.
Carol songs echoed through the streets.
If it had been a white Christmas, spending it in Oppa's room would feel even more regrettable, but luckily, no snow this year.
On a holiday when everyone else was off having fun, should I pity Oppa for not getting a break?
Still, even if it was a home date, I didn't want to show up sloppily, so I did my full makeup and wore my cherished cashmere knit.
I didn't want to wander the streets looking like a single loser while everyone else was dressed up cute for dates with their boyfriends.
To set the mood, I thought I'd buy some snacks on the way and stopped at a bakery near Oppa's, picking up a small white cream cake.
It was cute with a strawberry right in the center.
With this and the Santa girl outfit, we could have fun, right?
If I wore a sexy Santa costume, Oppa would definitely fuck me twice as deliciously.
I'd chosen it carefully.
I had no idea there were so many types of Santa girl outfits.
Thinking about getting pounded like a bitch in heat already had me grinning.
It'd only been three days since Oppa's birthday, but why did it feel like forever?
Arriving at Oppa's one-room, I knocked tok tok tok.
5:12.
A bit late, but since I came to his place, he wouldn't nitpick.
But no sound from inside.
Tok tok tok.
"Oppa. It's me."
Maybe he was too absorbed in writing to hear? I stood there with arms crossed.
Ddi ro ri.
The sound of the door lock disengaging.
But Oppa didn't open the door.
...What? His girlfriend came all the way here on Christmas, and he can't be bothered to open?
Fuming, I yanked the front door open.
"Hey! Lee Min-ho!"
I planned to give him a piece of my mind...
But something was off.
Not a single light on in Oppa's place, no signs of life at all.
Someone had unlocked the door...
Then perfect darkness as the door shut.
"...Oppa?"
The cake box hit the floor.
