The Perils of a Skirted Escape
"Besides, there's no way someone who looks this good in women's clothing isn't a girl!"
I stared at the firmly shut door behind me with a look of pure despair. I wanted nothing more than to give up and head back, but I knew that if I returned home now, those angry girls would only come up with even more cruel punishments. I finally closed my eyes, took a calm, deep breath, and thought to myself, "...Alright, there's no other way. I just have to get there and back as fast as I can without getting caught...!"
I started by slowly reciting all four verses of the national anthem in my head, trying to calm the penis that had been acting up on its own. Once the erection subsided somewhat, I covered the front of my skirt and began to shuffle cautiously toward the elevator. Walking in a skirt that was completely open at the bottom felt nothing like my usual life. Furthermore, because I wasn't wearing any underwear, the sensation of my genitals dangling and brushing against my thighs with every step was incredibly chilling. The fact that there was nothing but a thin piece of fabric shielding my most important parts from the world's gaze made a shiver run straight down my spine.
When the elevator finally arrived, I prayed desperately that there would be no one inside as I waited for the doors to slide open. Fortunately, just as I had wished, it was empty. I felt a small sense of relief as I clutched my skirt modestly and stepped inside. The elevator began a slow, sliding descent, but then, around the 10th floor, it slowed down and came to a stop. The doors opened, and a girl who looked like a college freshman walked in, wearing a short one-piece dress, her eyes glued to her phone as she clicked along in her heels.
'Ugh... d-damn it...'
Thankfully, my school uniform disguise was natural enough that the college student didn't seem to notice anything strange. She had only glanced at me once at first, then went right back to staring at her phone without giving me a second thought. I huddled into the corner, head bowed low, praying desperately for the elevator to reach the first floor.
But as if to mock my desperate prayers, the elevator stopped again around the 5th floor. This time, a whole truckload of young mothers with strollers piled in.
"...Well, Minsu's mom heard that and went and bought the land there in a flash..."
"...Oh my, oh my, that's just ridiculous..."
The young mothers chatted noisily among themselves, shoving their bulky strollers into the elevator without a care. Naturally, the college student who had boarded on the 10th floor and I were pushed into a cramped corner, forced to press our bodies tightly together. The girl in the short dress kept glancing back at me, seemingly bothered by the fact that I was standing right behind her. At this point, the only way to keep our bodies from touching was to push against the wall with all my might.
Eventually, the college student must have decided that since we were both girls, a little contact was fine, because she let her body go limp and leaned back comfortably against me.
'H-h-hick...?'
The firm, rounded flesh of her lower buttocks was clearly visible beneath her short dress. The skirt was so short that I could even see a faint urine stain on the underside of her white panties. At the same time, the sensual perfume she’d sprayed on her neck and the intoxicating scent of her shampoo assaulted my nose, pushing me to the brink of losing my grip on reason.
'N-no, if I get an erection here, I’m definitely getting caught...! If I don't want my life to end, I have to hold it in...!'
I squeezed my eyes shut, gasping for air, trying to suppress my filthy desires with the brightest, purest thoughts I could muster. But even that failed as the college student leaned back further, rubbing her exposed butt-crack directly against where my penis was hidden. I reached a point where I couldn't hold it back anymore.
'Ah... I-I'm screwed...!'
Just as my patience reached its limit and my penis was swelling up like a giant mushroom, the elevator chimed.
"Ding-dong, first floor."
Like a ray of salvation, the elevator reached the first floor and the doors opened. The young mothers in front stepped out first, chattering loudly. When it was finally our turn, the college student pulled away from me and walked out with a haughty, clicking gait, her eyes still fixed on her phone. By this time, my penis was standing tall and poking slightly out from under my skirt, but since I was the last one to get off, thankfully, no one noticed.
Once everyone had cleared out, I scrambled out of the elevator before the doors could close again. I spent a long time taking deep breaths and singing the national anthem in my head, finally managing to shrink my fully erect penis down to a semi-erect state. I couldn't shrink it any further, as standing hunched over while grabbing my crotch for too long would look suspicious, so I had no choice but to stagger out of the apartment complex.
I already knew the way from when I’d gone to the convenience store with Na-yeon yesterday. It was a short distance that only took five minutes on foot, but it felt as long as a thousand-mile journey. I prayed desperately not to run into anyone, clutching the hem of my skirt tightly to ensure it wouldn't blow up in the wind as I walked with as much modesty as I could muster.
The first half of the walk went relatively smoothly, but as soon as I turned the corner in front of the apartment complex, the absolute worst-case scenario unfolded before my eyes. I had run straight into the two elementary schoolers Na-yeon had tried to shake down yesterday.
"...Uh... oh... oh oh..."
My mind went completely blank, and my whole body stiffened like stone. The two kids stopped in their tracks, staring intently at my face as if to gauge me. Then, the one on the left pointed at me and shouted in an excited voice.
"Oh! It's that scary person's boyfriend from yesterday!"
'...Ah... they recognized me after all... It's over...'
"...You're right, it is that person...? But why..."
The one on the right, who seemed to have a calmer personality, adjusted his square-rimmed glasses and scanned me suspiciously from head to toe. Fortunately, my school uniform disguise was so perfect that even though they were looking right at me, they seemed half-in-doubt about whether I was the same person. The kids surrounded me, tilting their heads and examining me with suspicion. I broke out in a cold sweat, shivering uncontrollably. Since opening my mouth to make an excuse would only make them more suspicious, the best I could do was clutch my skirt with trembling hands and hunch my body as much as possible.
I was terrified of being reported as a cross-dressing pervert and dragged to the police station, when suddenly, the one who had recognized me first brightened up and shouted.
"So what! Maybe it turns out they aren't a guy, but a girl!"
"...What? Are you stupid? Logically, that's impossible..."
"But~! Unlike other adult men, this person isn't that tall, their body is small, and they don't have any facial hair! Besides, there's no way someone who looks this good in women's clothing isn't a girl!"
"...Th-that's certainly true, but... hmm..."
The kid with the red-rimmed glasses also tilted his head, looking unsure as he frowned at me. Hearing their conversation, my heart began to pound with the hope that I might miraculously escape this situation. But that hope was soon crushed. The kid with the red-rimmed glasses suddenly clapped his hands together, eyes wide as if he’d had a brilliant idea.
"Right! There's one way to know for sure."
"A way to know for sure? What is it?"
"We just have to lift that skirt! We can just check if the inside is the same as other girls!"
"Oh, right! Let's lift it! Okay, on the count of three, we lift it together, okay? One, two..."
As the two kids grabbed the hem of my skirt and started giggling sinisterly, ready to lift it at any second, I felt my legs give way, despairing that my life was finally over.
"...Hic... sob... Waaaaah!! Huu, huuuuaaah!"
As I collapsed on the spot, covering my face with my hands and bursting into loud sobs, the two kids were taken aback, exchanging glances and hesitating.
"...Uh... h-hey... w-why are you crying all of a sudden...? W-we're sorry if we went too far..."
"I-I didn't do anything wrong...? He's the one who wanted to do it..."
"W-what did you say...? Hey! W-wait up...!"
When I started wailing, the kids got scared and ran away from the scene. A moment later, I stopped crying, wiped my tears with the back of my hand, and peeked around.
'...D-did they leave...? Thank god... I barely survived...'
I let out a long sigh of relief and forced myself to stand up. Exhausted in both body and mind, I staggered the rest of the way until I finally arrived at the convenience store I’d visited with Na-yeon yesterday. As the bell on the door chimed cheerfully, a lively female clerk greeted me with a bright smile.
"Welcome~! Is there anything you're looking for?"
"Ugh, ughhhh..."
I stood in front of the counter, my face flushed bright red, and missed my chance to answer as I stood there stammering.
