77. As a friend (3)

1.

This horrible neighborhood.

If you’re a part-time job at dawn, you’ll have to be generous to some extent, but it’s not uncommon for crazy bastards to come and play around.

Just yesterday, a strange lady brought her crabs and she tried bartering.

But even in such a neighborhood, flowers bloom.

Seung-gi, who has a grown-up yet innocent charm, was such a person.

A person who always greeted me with a smile, had a pleasant conversation with me without losing that smile, and gave me simple gifts one by one.

It was unexpected to buy cigarettes every day, but that wasn’t particularly important.

To live in a town like this, even a man needs a cigarette. No wonder.

Besides, Seunggi’s teardrops add to his decadent beauty, so if you think that kind of guy smokes…….

Just the best.

It wasn’t a person you would see often, but he was a person who could be said to be the only pleasure of this part-time job.

He gives strength to everyone, and to be honest…… He also had a liking for it.

Any woman would have thought similarly?

By the way. Such a man brought a strange woman this time.

No matter how you look at it, the word bullying suits his appearance.

His long hair was dyed yellow, and his gestures were somewhat awkward.

There was another problem.

That’s right, Seung-gi’s physical condition.

Scars were visible on the body of Seung-gi, who had entered with the scary-looking woman.

There were marks on his face that looked like he had been hit by someone, and he wasn’t completely fine overall.

His attitude was also obviously strange.

When he greeted me, he smiled as usual, but when he talked to the yellow-haired woman, he kept a cold expressionless expression.

The way we talk is too awkward to be called friends.

They started walking around the store, but I couldn’t take my eyes off them.

It’s clear that something is going on.

I couldn’t ignore the fact that my younger brother, who was so kind to me, suffered bad things.

By the way.

“Han Seung-gi. I’ll go there only once. I’m choosing what I want to eat.”

Leaving those words behind, the bully girl moves to another part of the store.

At first, I wondered what he was doing, but when I saw the direction his steps were heading, I got a sense.

I hope my gut feeling is wrong, but that didn’t happen.

She went into the corner where the condoms were.

Even though there was a little distance, I could see clearly.

The foster girl started looking at the condoms one by one.

She picked it up and turned it around.

‘Please just leave it alone.’

Fortunately, did my wish work?

Suddenly startled, he put the condom back down and went back to Seung-gi.

I felt proud of something.

I feel like I stopped bad things from happening to Seung-gi, and I feel like I played an active role as a close older sister.

If you look at it very objectively, I didn’t do anything, but my heart was like that.

And then, when those two came to the checkout. I had to change that thinking.

Her seung-gi holding onto her shoulder, and her seung-gi’s expression that somehow seems to make her feel good.

Contrary to first impressions, they seem to be on good terms somewhere.

I’m sure Seung-gi wasn’t in good shape, right?

Is this called gaslighting? Or Stockholm Syndrome?

No, more than that.

If you think of the atmosphere of the two now…….

I didn’t bother to buy that condom earlier.

In raw… ….

“Nuna, see you next time?”

“Uh, yes… Goodbye…”

I stared endlessly at the door they opened and left.

I was filled with thoughts that I couldn’t protect Seunggi.

As they thought about what they were going to do next, a sense of defeat began to fill their hearts.

2.

That older sister wasn’t originally such a shady-looking person.

What happened today?

Well, I don’t think it has anything to do with it. I’m glad I didn’t find out that I’m a student.

And, oddly enough, Min Arin was the same.

They disappeared somewhere, telling me to look at me and pick out snacks, and then came back with a terrified expression and shaking hands.

I didn’t say that for a while, but what the hell were you looking at?

You don’t answer even if I ask.

Anyway, that’s how we bought a few bags of snacks and went home. First, I confined ‘that friend’ in a drawer.

Thinking about it, the time I spend with ‘that friend’ seems to have decreased significantly these days.

Is it because I spend more time with Min Ah-rin?

Before the regression, I treated him so dearly, but did the change in psychology lead to a change in behavior?

But still, it won’t be important.

It’s not that big of a deal.

As soon as I got home, I finished taking a shower, and after that, I sat side by side on the mattress with Min Ah-rin and chose a movie to watch together.

Our choice was a horror movie.

I’m a ghost and a human, and I’m not particularly afraid of anything, but I didn’t have a genre that I really liked, so I followed Min Ah-rin’s recommendation.

My house wasn’t a good environment for watching movies, but we somehow found a way.

Turn off all the lights in the house, pile up clutter and put the cell phone on it, cover the only blanket together, put a pillow in the middle of us, and hug each other.

What is the movie?

It was a common story about a ghost appearing in a white family’s new house.

A film full of clichés from the start.

‘Oh dear. What is this house? What happened?’

‘This is a very cheap sale. The previous occupant committed suicide in the room, and the former occupant was confined to an asylum. People say it’s inhabited by a ghost.’

‘Awesome. May I take a look?’

‘Of course.’

The windows were broken, the place was broken, and it was a miserable mansion.

Our main character had a psycho-like temperament.

Why do you go to places like that?

‘Hey. Is anybody there?’

Who are you talking to?

Still, this time wasn’t boring.

Watching a movie while weighing the rationality of each one was fun in its own way, and doing this with a friend in the middle of the night was also the same.

‘Oh! They’re talking to me!’

‘Damn it. Calm down Jane! That it’s all in vain Wake!’

There were still common scenes that seemed to have been seen somewhere.

When I turned my eyes to her side, Min Ah-rin was watching it with great concentration.

She put her hand in her bag of sweets, but her hand just trembled without even picking up the sweets.

I was watching it and then I touched her.

The reaction…….

Um.

A violent reaction to the point of being very sorry.

“Are you okay…?”

“Um, well, that’s because my hands are cold…”

“I used to scream…”

“No.”

“…….”

Pride is very strong.

I can understand that, too.

When I saw that, I stretched out my arms to Min Ah-rin and wrapped my arms around her shoulders.

When I touched her, she was startled as she trembled again.

“Han Seung-gi, why…”

“Because I’m scared.”

From noble mtl dot com

Actually, I didn’t do it because I thought rationally.

Just. How to say It was cute that he was trembling while showing his pride, and it felt like he was stimulating his desire for protection.

I didn’t know that something like this would happen.

Watching her horror movie with a woman, hugging her shoulders to reassure her.

It’s a scene that seems to come out of any drama. It was a very unusual experience for me, who had no special exchanges with the opposite s*x and no interest in it.

After maintaining that posture for a while, a feeling of comfort came up for some reason.

Mental rather than physical comfort.

And a kind of satisfaction also came into being.

Maybe it’s because someone is in this lonely house, or maybe the fact that you’re hugging something gives you a sense of security.

… ….

No, I think it’s a little more complicated emotion than that.

Thinking about it, these are the feelings I often felt while going out with Min Ah-rin.

I didn’t do anything special, but it was comfortable and enjoyable.

When we’re together, it’s stable for no reason, and it’s satisfying to spend time together.

My heart is pounding…….

No. This is not

As I concentrate, I feel my heart beating slightly faster than usual.

I can’t make an accurate comparison with the usual, and it might just be because of my mood. For some reason, it feels different than usual.

Something is strange.

It is a sensation that I have never experienced in my life.

For now, I tried to postpone the judgment on that sensation.

I was a little embarrassed because it was my first time doing something like this.

However, after feeling that sensation, strange behavior began.

Somewhere on my body tickles, my mind is focused on the part where my body is in contact, and I glance at the side more frequently than usual.

It was different from usual. Maybe it’s always like this, but I just didn’t feel it.

I felt strange about my behavior and consciously turned my eyes to the movie again.

The film, which is still a mass of clichés, is now in a state of climax.

‘We have to shoot! She’s not the person you used to know!’

‘Oh! Jack! I can’t bear to do that!’

But, I couldn’t concentrate as much as before.

The things I felt just before kept popping into my head.

To be honest, the situation where my body moves freely like this is not so sweet.

Because it’s not very pleasant to have your body controlled by strange emotions.

But my mind still felt only satisfaction.

The feeling of discomfort was non-existent.

I just came to the conclusion that it must be due to being with a woman.

From now on, I decided to live like a high school student without being tied down by my previous life.

It’s only natural for high school students to have mixed emotions when they meet someone of the opposite s*x.

I don’t think the emotion I’m feeling right now is s*xual desire…….

Anyway, that was it.
