Lee Naye Approaches the Truth - 3
I honestly had no idea how many times we'd gone at it.
And I still didn't know why I'd even bought those condoms.
Of course I'd gotten them intending to use them with Eunsol, but not a single one of the condoms scattered across the floor had been used.
From what I could remember, I'd emptied six loads into Yun Jiyeon alone—two in her pussy, one in her ass, one across her chest, one on her face, and one down her throat.
"Kyaaah~!!! Sol loves this so much!!!"
"......"
Don't love it that much. I'd spent the entire night holding another woman, after all.
Eunsol, who had no idea what had happened between last night and dawn, let out a scream of pure joy the moment morning arrived and threw her arms around me.
"You're really not leaving, right?? We're all going to live here together—Sol, Naye, Auntie, and Sua, right??"
"That's what I said."
"Kyaa~!!! Sunwoo, I love you so much!!"
It hadn't even been a full month, yet she'd already grown deeply attached. I could understand it to a point. Just like me in my previous life, Eunsol must have received an abundance of warm care and affection from Yun Jiyeon.
Yun Jiyeon was truly a good person—good enough to completely open the heart of someone as pathologically shy as Eunsol in such a short time.
But Naye's reaction today was a little strange.
Yesterday she'd kept pushing me away every time I tried to get close, yet now she was just eating her breakfast as if she didn't care whether Eunsol was clinging to me or not.
Did she only get jealous when she drank?
"Sol, you hurry up and eat too. We said we were going shopping today."
"Ah, right! Sol can eat super fast!!"
"And Naye, you..."
"What?"
"Never mind. It's nothing."
She answered with her usual blunt tone, so it didn't seem like anything was actually wrong.
"Mom, I'm heading out~"
"Okay! Fighting today too, my girl~!"
After seeing Kim Sua off as she dashed out without even looking back, Yun Jiyeon spotted me standing blankly in the living room and flinched hard. She glanced around carefully, then slid toward me as if her feet were gliding across the floor.
"S-Sunwoo..."
"Yes."
"So... haah... what am I supposed to do.... sob..."
I wondered why she was acting like this again, but she'd been in this exact state ever since sobering up at dawn, so I was used to it by now.
She really was like a completely different person—drunk Yun Jiyeon versus sober Yun Jiyeon.
"About last night... the things I said yesterday..!"
"Don't drink with other men. And never drink outside if I'm not there."
"I won't! I only drink at home... And the only man I've ever drunk with besides my husband is... you, Sunwoo...."
"That's how it should be. From now on I'm your personal..."
"I told you to forget that!!! That whole 'personal masturbation toy' thing was just something that slipped out without thinking because I was drunk!!"
"Keep your voice down. The kids are still upstairs."
"Ah..."
"And what are you even talking about right now?"
"Huh..??"
"I was saying I'd be your personal drinking buddy. You're so dirty-minded~"
"......"
Yun Jiyeon's neck turned bright red. She covered her exploding face with both hands and bolted into her room.
"She's got a cute side too."
"Sunwoo~~ Sol's all ready~~~"
"What about Naye?"
"She'll be down soon~ Hehe."
I was stroking Eunsol's hair as she hugged me the moment she came downstairs when Naye, finished with her own preparations, came down as well.
"Did you have a nightmare or something? Why's your tension so weird today?"
"Nothing. Just hurry up and go."
Definitely low pressure. Constipation, maybe?
"Woooow~~ This place is so pretty~~"
"Eunsol!"
"Uuung... I'll be quiet..."
We took the subway to the department store at Euljiro Entrance Station. The second we stepped inside, an excited Eunsol spread her arms wide and looked around everywhere, only to be immediately seized by Naye and forced into full crouch mode.
"Just leave her alone. If something's pretty and new, of course she wants to look around."
"I hate that kind of thing..!"
"Then go by yourself. Sol~ Want to come look around with me?"
"Ung!!"
"Haa... Seriously..!"
I took the excited Eunsol and wandered all over the department store. Staff and customers alike shot us unfriendly looks, but I didn't care about any of them. There was no need to match even my own feelings to other people's gazes and standards. No—I'd only realized after regressing that there was no need for that at all.
"You said we came to buy a gift for the director..! Just buy the gift already..!!"
Embarrassed by how happily we were roaming around, Naye spoke through gritted teeth, her face flushed red. I held a perfectly ordinary single-breasted coat from a hanger right under her chin.
"W-What are you doing..!"
"Clean looks really suit you after all. Try it on."
"Why would I try this on?? I told you we came to buy a gift for the director today."
"That was a lie."
"What..?"
"We came to buy gifts for you and Sol. So stop being so stubborn and try it on already~"
"Excuse me, sir. I'm sorry, but trying it on is a bit difficult."
It was the female employee who'd been watching me and Eunsol wander the store with an extremely uncomfortable expression for a while now. I knew everything here was expensive luxury goods ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of won, but being discriminated against like this still left a bad taste.
"How am I supposed to buy clothes without trying them on?"
"Ha..."
I felt it. No—it was just out in the open. That corner of her mouth, full of mockery. And her expression was completely transparent.
These brats wearing clothes that don't even add up to five hundred thousand won total think they're going to buy that?
Hilarious. Like I don't know you talentless little things just want to put on a luxury brand once, take a picture, and leave.
I wasn't some mind-reading Gung Ye, but the department store employee's face was saying exactly that. And it pissed me off thoroughly.
"Is it really not possible?"
"I'm sorry, sir. It's store policy."
"Ah, store policy. Then could you call another employee for me?"
"Excuse me??"
"Please."
"Ah, yes."
The employee turned away with a sour look, spoke with another female staff member, and after checking us over her shoulder, that second employee approached with a bright smile.
"Yes, sir. How may I help you?"
"I'd like to try this on. Is that possible?"
"Just stop already..!"
"Of course~ I'll show you to the fitting room...."
"I'll take everything from here to over there."
"Excuse me??"
"I'll try the clothes on later. For now just give me all the bags. One payment."
"Ah..... Yes! Sir!!"
The employee took the card, bowed deeply at the waist, and ran off. I was about to enjoy the expression of the first employee who was still sneering from a distance, but the moment our eyes met she came running over without giving me the chance.
"S-Sir! Let me show you to the fitting room..."
"No need."
"Excuse me??"
"It's uncomfortable. I don't want to."
"J-Just a moment ago I was truly rude! Please forgive me!!"
"Don't apologize. You'll be cursing me out again soon enough. Let's see, your name is... Park Hyunmi."
"......"
Her face looked like she could already see the situation about to unfold. Of course I could have ended it right here with just enough of a jolt to wake her up. But while I could tolerate being ignored myself, I couldn't stand her ignoring Naye and Eunsol.
"Sol, how about these shoes?"
"They're all pretty! But Sol only needs this one~ This is the prettiest!"
"Is that so. Then give me every size of everything here. Naye, what's your shoe size?"
"Stop it..! Do you even know how much you've spent already..?!"
It wasn't just that one store. We went through the entire luxury wing and shopped properly. Then someone appeared who could finally soothe my foul mood.
"Hello, I'm Manager Jeong Hyeseon."
"Yes, hello. What can I do for you?"
"I heard one of our employees was discourteous a moment ago. On behalf of that employee, I would like to apologize to you, sir. I am truly sorry."
"I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry."
Not only Manager Jeong Hyeseon but every employee who had followed her bowed at the waist in apology. Park Hyunmi, the one who had made me so uncomfortable, was not among them. Of course I knew why. I'd seen her name tag being placed into Jeong Hyeseon's palm earlier.
"There's no need for you to apologize on someone else's behalf, Manager. Same goes for the rest of you. Then we can continue looking around, right?"
"I will personally attend to you."
"I'm honored."
With Manager Jeong Hyeseon's help, we shopped in complete comfort. We didn't even have to carry the things we bought—employees took turns holding them, and the items were arranged to be delivered separately to the boarding house and the Seongbuk-dong house.
"Please contact me when you visit next time. I'll make sure you're comfortable."
"Yes, see you again."
Honestly it was convenient, but it was just as uncomfortable. You had to have received this kind of treatment before to understand. Anyway, we finished shopping in a good mood, grabbed a simple lunch, and moved over to the building next door.
"What should we watch?"
"Uuung.... Naye, what do you want to see?"
"I don't know.."
We headed to the movie theater belonging to the same conglomerate group as the department store. There was a domestic ten-million-viewer hit that had been popular since the end of last year, and a film shouting "Wakanda Forever" was also screening to packed houses. But only a few movies were available for immediate viewing, and after a long stretch of deliberation we settled on an American film rated for adults only.
For the record, not a single one of my opinions went into the decision. Now that they were adults and qualified to watch this kind of movie, Eunsol and Naye had chosen it themselves.
-I'm going to keep going until you scream.
-Haaeuu..!
Three minutes into the movie something was already writhing on a bed, and at the ten-minute mark underwear was stripped away and bare breasts were fully exposed. What made it worse was that the male lead had cuffed the female lead's wrists and ankles with a somewhat long set of handcuffs and started doing that to her.
Handcuffs, huh... Should I try that once myself..?
"Eut..."
Eunsol, crouched on her seat, started rubbing her thighs together. When I glanced the other way, Naye's mouth had fallen slightly open in surprise and she couldn't tear her eyes from the screen. For the record, I was sitting between the two of them.
Then maybe I should try something for a bit?
(S-Sunwoo..!)
(It's fine. Naye's completely out of it right now.)
(But.... eungh..)
Once again I was keeping Naye close while tormenting Eunsol. I knew full well it was a terrible thing to do to Naye, who liked me, yet I couldn't stop this thrilling rush.
Tuk—
Jjigeok—
I undid the buckle and slid my fingers inside her jeans, pushing them into Eunsol's pussy.
(Th-They're going to see..! Other people.. are going to see Sol like this...!)
(No one's looking. Everyone's busy.)
(Euuut..!)
There were barely any audience members to begin with. The only people in the theater were us in the very back and a few scattered couples up front.
Then an unexpected variable appeared. After barely a minute the scene changed and the man was stuffing the handcuffs back into a bag.
What the hell? Who ends the first sex scene like that!!
"Sunwoo, can I have some of your coffee?"
"Huh?? Uh.. j-just a second.."
I hurriedly pulled my fingers out of Eunsol's pussy and used that same hand to pass over the coffee cup sitting in the armrest cupholder. Naye stared fixedly at the cup held out in front of her, then tilted her head and looked at the fingers gripping it.
"Your fingers are shiny."
"P-Popcorn dust got on them so I licked it off and some spit stuck..? Haha..."
"You must have licked pretty deep. The popcorn must have been really good?"
"Uh..? Uh.. well..."
"I'll enjoy it."
"Uh.."
Naye, who had said she would enjoy it, never even put her lips to the straw. She set the cup straight down into the cupholder on the opposite armrest. Then she focused on the screen again—on a movie so boring that even Eunsol was yawning.
Had she figured it out after all..?
"Haaaawn..!! The movie's not fun and it's weird, so Sol's getting even more tired..."
"If you're tired, want to head back first?"
"Ung?? Naye's not going?"
"I have something to talk about with Sunwoo."
"Uuung.... If Sunwoo's not going, Sol's not going either."
"Really? It's a boring conversation for Sol to listen to."
"What kind of conversation?"
"As fellow business majors, about the upcoming class curriculum and..."
"Then I'll see you at home~~~"
Eunsol had already sprinted all the way to the front of the subway station. She waved and disappeared. But talking about class curriculum with me? As far as I knew we were both in business, but I was in regular business administration while Naye was in global business, so we barely ever ran into each other...
"Want to go somewhere quiet?"
"A café??"
"No. Somewhere quieter."
"Quieter... where..."
The place Naye looked at was a hotel. She wanted the two of us to go to a hotel alone? She wasn't seriously suggesting we get a room, was she?
Cheolkeok—
We entered the hotel room. Just Naye and me, without Eunsol. The moment I inserted the key card, Naye turned around to face me as I stood with my back against the closed door and took one big step closer. I retreated half a step and pressed myself flat against the door.
"N-Naye... you're too close..."
"What are you to Sol?"
"Huh??"
"Don't even think about lying. If you do, I'll never see you again."
"Th-That's... I mean...."
"Wait. Answer this first before you answer that."
"What..?"
"This morning at dawn..."
"This morning at dawn..?"
"What did you do with Auntie?"
"......"
Had those footsteps been Naye's? What was I supposed to say? What excuse could I make? Or should I just tell the truth?
I hesitated for a long time without answering. Then something started bumping against my chest.
Tuk..! Tuk..! Tuktuk..!!
What was pounding my chest were Naye's small fists, curled weakly. I'd been covering that area just in case, but no kicks came. Still, I hadn't expected this kind of development at all...
"Sob..! Liar..."
"Naye..."
She was crying. Head bowed deeply, pounding my chest and crying. Resenting me.
"You said I was pretty... You said you liked me a lot.... So why.. why.... do you keep hating only me... Why only me...."
"When did I ever hate you?!"
"You did! Ever since we were little!!"
"That was..! Anyway I don't hate you. When I said I liked you a lot, I meant it."
"Then why do you do that..."
"Do what?"
"Why is it Sol and Auntie instead of me... In your eyes... do I not even look like a girl..?"
This was a side of her I'd never seen before. I'd only ever thought of her as a viper of a girl, but the Naye looking up at me now with tears streaking her face was nothing more than an endlessly fragile woman.
"Choose me instead of anyone else... you idiot...."
I'm sorry, but I don't think I can choose only you. But for now, I'll look only at you.
I seized her waist tightly and pulled her against me, crushing my mouth to hers.
"Mmmp.. mmph.. uuung... haah.. haah.. Cha Sunwoo...."
"I'm going to take you right here. From now on you're my woman, Lee Naye."
"....Okay... mmmp..!"
