Episode 41. East-West couple, two men’s plan (2)

After the final exams, the ambiguous time left was over, and summer vacation began.

The weather is now sweltering hot, and I manage to survive with a fan and a cold shower in the house.

It will get hotter in a little while, but even if you try to run the air conditioner, the waiting time is five days. Still, I wouldn’t have imagined something like this if it wasn’t for the gukppong tube.

My goal for this summer vacation is to drop at least one of the four main characters. First of all, Kim Dong-hyun is the most influential.

I also took Choi Seo-yoon’s phone number the other day, and I think it’s about time for the ‘Broken Promise’ build-up. Above all, after seeing Kim Dong-hyun’s eyes, I thought that I should be eliminated as soon as possible.

Perhaps Kim Dong-hyun will try to ask Choi Seo-yoon out on a date unconditionally, and I just have to work hard in the downtown area every day to prepare for him.

She only needs to meet once… If only her and my eyes meet in the air. Then, from then on, it will flow according to my will.

It won’t even take that long. Kim Dong-hyun’s patience won’t be that long. He probably still keeps in touch.

No matter how hard you make a promise, there are still rules of the game… Is within the expected range.

I should practice hurt expressions in advance.

Go into the bathroom and stand looking in the mirror. [NTL Master] Is in charge of acting, not me for the first time in a while. This is because it is impossible to recall these memories because he has never experienced being abandoned or hurt by another woman.

Black short sleeves and shorts of the design I always wore. Now is not the season to wear long jeans.

“Hey, let’s practice. Make a hurt face.”

I spoke to [NTL Master].

I look in the mirror and see a man with wide eyes and an expression of disbelief. His expression was full of bewilderment and sorrow.

I wonder if Cheoyong made this expression when he saw four legs under the blanket after spending time on the streets of Seorabeol at night.

If someone touches it, it seems like it will collapse in an instant.

As if he couldn’t believe what he saw with his eyes, he tried to deny it.

I try to say something by opening my mouth a couple of times, but my mouth closes.

In time, his pupils shook and turned dark as if he had sunk into an abyss. The expression he had been making up until then collapsed helplessly. His expression was full of betrayal, sadness, and deep wounds.

‘Oh…’

I couldn’t help but admire it.

After being frozen in place for a while, he finally moved his body. He lifted his hand tremblingly, then dropped it.

I moved my stiff legs and took a step back, then turned my back. With that action, the acting ended.

“Oh… Is this enough?”

The behavior of a man who was hurt by anyone’s eyes.

When she takes her promise to her, she has already revealed enough of her ‘painful past’ card and ‘wound from women’ card, so if it is combined with her performance, she will be able to hurt me enough. You will know that you have received it.

The time has come for the hard-laid-up build-up to finally shine.

“Okay.. Acting doesn’t really need my help. Let’s make some more plans together.”

**

It’s summer vacation.

Unlike during the semester when I go to the academy every day, it’s okay to stay at home all day.

I will use this time to ask the manager on a date. To rescue the manager from that bully.

The general manager will probably be happy to welcome you.

I turn on my phone with excitement.

There is a picture of the manager in the background. It’s a back view, but it’s pretty. It’s not a picture taken after talking… Well, that’s fine.

It’s not a crime for a man to do this, and the manager will like it once he finds out.

If you just ask me to see you, I’ll love you on the inside, but I’ll be shy again… I’ll have to make an excuse.

Ah, I saw on the Internet that a new movie was released. Shall we see you together?

[Chief, are you free tomorrow?]

[Tomorrow? Why?]

[Because Avengers 3 was released. Would you like to see it together?]

[Ah.. Just the two of you?]

I haven’t even asked you two to go yet, how did you know? After all, we must be born together.

[Yes.]

I sent her a reply with her fluttering heart.

[Ah.. Sorry. I don’t think that will work.]

However, the answer that came back was different from what I thought.

Why? Why did you refuse

Are you sure you’re going to meet that bastard that day?

[Why? Do you have an appointment?]

[No, that’s not the case… For personal reasons.]

What was the personal reason?

Ah! Are you embarrassed? Well, going to the cinema alone with a man and a woman is like a date. You’re ashamed of that

I knew that the general manager was shy.

[Then, please take a look at the glove… I’m trying to change it, but I’m not sure.]

[Ah, can I go with Jungwoo? I think it would be more comfortable because it’s the same guy. I’ll give you my phone number!]

What is it? I think this is enough to exceed the limit of shyness?

That, yes! Brainwashing! Gaslighting! They say gaslighting is so scary these days, did Kang Hyeon-woo do that?

Already to that stage…! We must rescue the manager as soon as possible.

-Tour

I called the general manager.

-Hello? Donghyun?

Ah, just hearing your voice overflows with joy and delight.

I love you, I love you. That beautiful voice, the cool body in my background picture, and the pretty face. The kind personality and the clothes he wears. Even the cell phone you use and the towel you sweat on.

Everything looks lovely, how could we not be destined?

“Chief. Is it really bad?”

-Yes, I’m sorry. I don’t think so.

Looks like he’s been thoroughly brainwashed. However, there is still a way.

Women are said to be weak against men’s tears. If I shed tears, which the manager secretly likes, wouldn’t he listen?

“Huh… I was really looking forward to it…”

-Uh, huh? Donghyun, are you crying?

“Really… Hey, can’t we?”

– Poem, I guess it’s time! Uh! I’ll see you tomorrow!

– Boom

I hung up the phone and sent a text message. Because it seemed that cheers would explode at any moment in my overflowing heart.

[Then, see you tomorrow.]

[Yes! Where do you want to see it?]

[At the department store.. At 10 o’clock.]

[Okay!]

[Yes, I’ll look forward to it tomorrow.]

Ah, as expected, the general manager is kind.

If tomorrow passes, the manager’s brainwashing will break and he will only look at me, right?

“What should I wear…”

**

It’s a big deal. Tomorrow, Donghyun and I decided to visit the department store.

What should I do with the promise I made with Hyunwoo? You seem particularly sensitive to Donghyun…

When I first received the text message, I tried to reject it.

But, when the phone rang and I heard Donghyun crying… I agreed without realizing it.

“Ah.. What should I do..”

To be honest, I also wanted to see Donghyun in plain clothes. What if that cute little girl comes wearing her plain clothes?

For example, a hoodie with long sleeves covering her hands…

When I think about it that way, I think tomorrow will be fun.

No, but I promised that…?

I still remember the look in Hyunwoo’s eyes at that time. I remember him who clung to me with hot eyes as if the only person I could trust was me.

Everything is vivid, even the air of the night coming back from the game and the hardness of the wall. The sincerity conveyed through his solid body, warmth, and trembling voice.

I felt satisfied that a man depended on me, but I also developed more compassion than that. That day, I heard a little about his past.

Stalker, orphanage, lots of molesters.

You probably went through a lot of hardships and received a lot of scars in your life.

Many times, Hyeonu showed a kind of obsession and obsession with that promise. I was willing to accept that obsession.

And the first woman he could trust. That’s me

If I went out and bumped into Hyeonu, I would be really hurt…

I never want to see that figure. When I think of the scene where Hyeonu bows his head and gets depressed, I feel like I get depressed too.

[Yes, I’ll look forward to it tomorrow.]

But when Donghyun’s text message arrived, my heart sank again.

A cute face and a small voice linger. Ah.. I really miss you, but…

As I’ve said before, Donghyun is really my ideal type.

A small and cute appearance, and that personality. Even the way you speak. Just like the man God devised and created ‘Choi Seo-yoon’s ideal type’.

Confusion filled my head. He scratches his head and thinks.

Ah, should we just leave? I really miss you…

Then your Hyunwoo got caught, and he didn’t go out again, so he already made an appointment…

Ah.. What should I do..

Okay, let’s go.

It’s not at all good for a woman to break her promise, but it’s also bad for her to make a man cry.

I also have a little bit of selfishness to see Donghyun.

Hyeonu… Well, how wide the world is, why should we meet at that time and place?

No way. It is nonsense. It’s usually hard to meet a friend by chance on the street, but why did you meet Hyunwoo? It’s nonsense. It’s really nonsense.

It will be fine if we don’t run into each other. How big is Seoul and how big are the department stores?

I made up my mind to go out like that.

…And I will forever regret the decision at this time.
