Chapter Title: Hungover Reckoning
-----------------------------------------------------------------
A new morning dawned.
Early dawn.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm.
My eyes wouldn't open easily.
But I had to get up.
Outdoor filming started today.
I'm so tired.
My body ached all over.
Probably because I overdid it with the workout yesterday...
"Huh?"
Did I even work out yesterday?
I pondered while doing some simple stretches to loosen up.
Filming went late yesterday.
Then I came home and partied with the family.
And drank the booze Sis brought?
Huh?
Why am I sleeping naked?
...Hm.
My mouth still reeks of booze.
So this is what a blackout feels like.
Did I drink too much?
Might as well shower while I'm already undressed.
I've gotta get ready and head out quick.
"Ow, damn."
As I turned on the cold water, my back stung.
Wondering what it was, I checked in the mirror—scratch marks from nails, clear as day.
"Huh?"
Did I scratch myself in my sleep?
Weird.
I tried to touch it, but my hand wouldn't reach.
"???"
How could I scratch it if my hand can't reach?
Hm.
Right.
Maybe ask Mom to put some ointment on it.
Make an excuse to get her to apply it, clothes come off, mood heats up...
...No.
Mom might misunderstand.
It looks just like a woman clawed me.
What ointment? It's not serious.
Just leave it.
I finished showering and headed to the living room.
Sounds came from the kitchen.
I went in—Mom was at the counter, Sis at the table.
"Mom, good morning."
"Did you sleep well, Sun-hu?"
"Yeah. You're up early too, Sis."
"......"
Mom greeted me warmly.
Sis just glanced and looked away.
Mom must be tired too, yet up early prepping breakfast.
Respect.
I grabbed water from the fridge and drank.
Felt eyes on me, turned—Sis staring at my face from the table.
Something on it?
I washed up good.
"...What?"
"You don't remember a thing, do you?"
"Remember what?"
"So-young."
Mom scolded Sis gently.
"Huh?"
The vibe felt off.
"Ha~."
Sis sighed dramatically.
What's with the sigh first thing?
Bad omen.
"Whatever."
Sis seemed annoyed.
Should I ask?
But I'm short on time today.
"Sun-hu, sit. Eat before you go."
"Okay."
Not hungry.
Overdid the drinking last night?
But Mom made it, so eat.
"Oh, Sis. Did I do something weird when I was drunk yesterday?"
I asked as I sat, wondering if that's why she's pissed.
"Haa~."
But Sis just sighed again.
Not that?
Probably not.
If I did, she'd have decked me already.
Maybe other worries?
"Sis, if something's bothering you, tell me. Sharing helps a lot."
"...Sure. I'll keep that in mind."
Sis looked at me like I was ridiculous.
Overstepped?
She might not trust me, but I'd help with anything.
"Dig in, everyone."
I helped set the table and sat.
Clear bean sprout soup for breakfast.
"Thanks for the meal."
I scooped some broth.
Delicious.
Mom's familiar touch.
My queasy stomach settled right up.
No wonder people crave hangover soup.
"Morning, Mom. Morning, Oppa, Unnie."
Mi-so was up too.
Early for her—
"Pffft!!"
"Gross."
Sis snapped, but I wasn't focused.
"Mi-so, you—cough."
Couldn't speak through coughing.
Mi-so was naked.
Completely. Not a stitch on.
Breasts, ass, pussy—all out.
"Yeah?"
Mi-so looked puzzled.
Like nothing's wrong.
...Still sleepy?
Even half-asleep, how do you come out naked?
Not if alone, but Mom and Sis here.
"Jin Mi-so. What're you doing?"
Sis said with a hollow laugh.
"Huh? Isn't it fine now?"
Mi-so asked back, baffled.
I'm the baffled one.
What makes it "fine"?
"See, Mom? Told you no."
Sis said to Mom like told you so.
Mom sighed this time.
...What're these reactions?
Thought they'd freak.
Acting like no big deal.
Even if they bathe together sometimes.
Parading naked around the house.
Weird.
Felt strangely alienated.
Did I wake up in a common sense-changed world?
Women walking naked normal or something?
"...Mi-so, put some clothes on. Come eat."
"Too much hassle~. Oppa came inside last night, so to dress I gotta wash deep inside. Doesn't come out easy if not right away."
"Gonna talk dirty at breakfast? Want a spoon to the head?"
Chaos.
What're they saying?
Their words a mess, my head a mess.
"Mi-so, what the hell..."
As I spoke, puzzle pieces clicked.
Memories sank deep surfaced.
Fragmented, hazy.
Back scratches.
'No, Sun-hu! Stop!'
'No! So-young, Mi-so, don't look!'
Forcing Mom in front of Sis and Mi-so, her clawing my back beneath me.
Muscle aches without reason.
'Hey! Jin Sun-hu! Let go! Right now?!'
'Pull out, please...'
'Aaaah—!!'
Cuffing resisting Sis forcibly, raping her.
Mi-so's pussy full of cum.
'Yeah... hu...'
'Pervert bastard. Feels good screwing your sleeping sister?'
Remembered somnophiliating sleeping Mi-so.
"Ah."
...What did I do?
Spoon clattered under table.
Tang.
Last night's memories surfaced one by one.
Each a crime unforgivable.
They say booze brings out true nature.
My filthy side I didn't want to know.
That was me—blood of those 'biological parents,' sex-crazed true self.
"Remember now, you trash?"
Sis's words stabbed my chest.
Trash...
Non-recyclable. Nuclear waste.
I owe them apologies.
"Jin So-young. That's no way to talk to your brother."
"Brother? Fucking his own mom, sis, little sis—still a brother?"
"Ugh."
Sis was spot on.
Not brother-worthy. Subhuman.
Crossed lines long ago, but last night beastly.
"Oppa. Wash me? You dirtied me."
Mi-so sat on my thigh.
After that, still calls me Oppa.
What did I do to such a sweet sister?
"Sun-hu, ignore Sis. She's embarrassed, acting out. Mi-so, get down. Oppa's busy mornings."
"Tch."
Mom's comfort breezed past.
Didn't register.
How to apologize?
To family I hurt.
I got off the chair, knelt on floor.
"Oh, putting on a show?"
Sis earned her scorn.
"Sis, sorry. Mom, sorry. Mi-so, sorry too. Last night I was too drunk... I know no excuse, wasn't sane."
"So? Beg forgiveness?"
"If possible... I'll do anything."
Craved forgiveness.
Knew selfish.
Still, wanted back to normal family.
Didn't wanna lose this happiness.
Hate abandonment.
Hate distance.
Do anything for forgiveness.
"Bride and groom bow~!"
Mi-so bowed opposite me.
...Funny when serious?
"Hey, Jin Sun-hu. Said anything, right?"
Sis wedged between Mi-so and me.
Arms crossed, stood tall.
Eyes of the strong looked down.
"...Anything."
Not just what I can.
Even impossible.
Truly anything.
"Hmph."
Sis smirked satisfied.
"Then succeed.
Succeed ridiculously, own three women no one bats eye at.
Mom, me, Mi-so—proudly declare 'We're Jin Sun-hu's women.'"
"Sis..."
Sis's words epic.
Too epic, no destination visible.
Tower without peak, ocean without end.
How to succeed for that?
Even US President couldn't claim it proudly.
As I dazed, Mom squatted beside.
Held my hand.
"Sun-hu. Mom wasn't mad from start. No need apologize, no need forgive."
"Mom..."
Mom's hand, words, eyes warm.
Wanna shout I love you now.
"Me too, Oppa! No, bath together, forgive!"
"Mi-so..."
Can I be this happy?
"Sis. I'll succeed. Not sure if you can proudly say my man, but succeed enough to boast you as my sister."
"Ooh, Jin Sun-hu, cool?"
"Mom. Thanks. Won't disappoint, do better."
"Mom happy if healthy, happy."
"Mi-so. Back, bath together. Wash clean."
"Promise."
Mi-so pinky-swore.
Yeah.
To Mom, Sis, Mi-so.
Become man not ashamed.
Son, brother, Oppa to boast.
Private or public, strive harder.
Return happiness they gave.
No need far sights.
Focus near.
Outdoor filming today.
Now, shine as actor.
Max every task ahead.
Success, happiness follow.
