Episode 5 # Are you jealous? I'm jealous!

“But who is that guy next to you?”

“..?!! Where did you get that from?!!”

“This? From over there earlier.”


Choi Yeonjun went into my room again and came out holding my middle school graduation album and looking at it with great confidence.

I'm sure you all don't know, but I lost weight in high school and have maintained it ever since. So, even I think my weight up until middle school was terrible.

Even the prescription of the glasses was high, so my eyes were the size of beans.

How dare you open up my dark history so carelessly... I'm really going to kill that guy someday.


“So who is this guy?”

“..my boyfriend”

“Who is your boyfriend?”

“There’s this crazy guy named Choi Beom-gyu who has been my friend for 20 years, surprisingly.”

“ … ”

“But why him all of a sudden?”

“..I don’t like him”

“Stop looking at it and put it back where it belongs.”


What if he doesn't like it? He'll blame his own dexterity since he made it himself.

Oh, since you're handsome, are you good with your hands?

I hate to admit it, but he had a pretty good-looking face. That's why girls used to flock around him, but surprisingly, he's still single.

A man who can choose whether to become a mausoleum or not is unlucky.


at that time,

Ringing,


"..? Wow, is this a tiger?"

” ..? “


At that very moment, Choi Beom-gyu called, and I got goosebumps, but I tried to remain calm and answered the phone. What the...?


" hello? "

“Long time no see~”

"Long time no see, I saw you a month ago"

“It’s been a long time since we last hung out together until high school.”

"Tell me the purpose of your call."

“This guy came to Seoul after a long time, let’s hang out.”

"..?! Are you in Seoul?! "

"Haha, I came to play after getting permission from my mom."

"You're crazy... Okay, I get it."


Thump,


"What, who is it?"

"Surprisingly, it's the guy you asked about earlier. He said he came to Seoul and wanted to hang out with me."

" .. no "

" yes? "

"If you're going to go out anyway, you should go out with me."

"I haven't told you yet that I'm going alone."

"Not yet..! I was going to do it"

“You got caught..?”


After spending a few days with me, he figured out my pattern. In fact, I had planned to go alone, so I didn't even think about telling him.


“You can’t go out unless you go with me, no.”

“Oh, it’s been a really long time since I’ve played with him.”

“It hasn’t been long, I said earlier.”

“..when did you hear that?”

“No! Anyway.”

“No.. Really”

“Then call me here.”

“Home?”

" huh! "

"Well... then I guess so."

" uh..? "


Anyway, I can just introduce myself to Choi Beom-gyu as a cleaner, so there shouldn't be any problems. He's simple-minded and easily fooled.

After a while,

Bbit, bbbit, bbbit,


"Oh, I see you're here"

“You even know the password..?”

"Because he was here before you."


Knock knock,

"Jju! This guy is here~!!"

"You like me, oppa. A guy whose birthday is earlier than mine."

“Haha, it’s been a while, but you really are a cruel person to talk to.”

“It’s been so long, you must be having trouble adjusting~”

"What... but who is that person? I don't think I've seen him before."

"Ah, I'm this guy..ㅍ"

"Dear cleaner, you know I don't clean very well. That's why I've been asking for your help lately."

“But you live alone in this house, so isn’t it a bit much for a man?”

"Are you strangely worried today? That's just a nuisance."

"Huh.. Is it a problem if I worry about you?"


I hastily interrupted Choi Yeonjun and introduced myself. "You sound like a husband. Why should I listen to such nonsense at this age? And you're not even married to me."


“Do you want to eat something first? Have you eaten yet?”

"No... I'm so hungry right now"

“Just wait.”


I grabbed some pasta ingredients from the fridge and quickly made some cream pasta, and Choi Beom-gyu started eating it in a hurry. He must have been really hungry.

I glanced to the side and saw Choi Yeonjun staring at the back of Choi Beomgyu's head with a blank expression, or rather an angry expression.

His angry duck-like face made me laugh involuntarily. What? Could he be jealous?

Well, I've hardly ever made anything for Choi Yeonjun.


"Ah~ I'm full"

“Would you like some dessert?”

“Do you have ice cream?”

"Of course there is"

"Of course~ I'd like chocolate flavor please"


Thinking about the ice creams I had seen yesterday, I opened the freezer and checked the ice cream section next to it.


"Huh..? What is this?"

" why? "


All the ice creams that used to be so varied had been replaced with mint chocolate. Choi Beom-gyu, of all people, absolutely hates mint chocolate, while I absolutely adore it. I had no choice but to eat it all by myself.


"There's only mint chocolate ice cream. I guess that means you shouldn't eat it."

“Huh… why did you buy mint chocolate?”

"I didn't buy it, but I like it"


In the end, I ate the ice cream alone and Choi Beom-gyu gave me a drink.


“When are you going up?”

"Later this evening"

"Then let's go see a movie"

"Oh right, you bought the screen?"

"It's really good. It's the best thing I bought this year."

"Then you'll see me off to the station after seeing everything?"

"Well... it's been a while since I've been here"

"Wow... what is this? what is this? I'm so touched"


Swish,


"He's sneaking around again"

"Even if you and I are like this, the kids don't think much about it anymore"

"Okay, now that I know this is your habit, I don't misunderstand."

"Haha I'm a bit of a lovey-dovey person"

“I can’t understand bullshit”

“..bad guy”


at that time,

thud,


" ..?! what "

"Oh, that's surprising..."


Choi Yeonjun slammed the door shut behind him as he entered, leaving Beomgyu and I flustered. What the heck, are you upset?


“Why are you like that..?”

“It must have closed hard because of the wind.”

“Wind..? All the windows are closed.”

"I guess that's just how it is"

“Ah.. yeah”


Otherwise, that god might really not leave you alone... Well, I don't think he'll leave me alone... Yeah...

So, I watched a movie and played PlayStation together with Choi Beom-gyu for the first time in a long while. Before I knew it, the bus time was approaching, and after seeing him off at the station, I arrived home safely.

It's no secret that I brought a frying pan just in case..^^

When I got home, I saw Choi Yeonjun out of his room watching TV, and he had a blank expression on his face, probably because he was still angry.


“Choi Yeonjun..? Are you angry?”

“I’m not angry.”

“Speak with a relaxed expression.. I’m watching a comedy show, but why do you look like a documentary?”

" .. I don't know "

"Oh really... why are you doing that?"

"I make pasta for him, smile at him, call his name...! I'm just a cleaning person."

"No, I don't want Choi Beom-gyu to misunderstand that."

“Why shouldn’t I misunderstand..?! “

"If he tells my mom... "

“You won’t marry me?”

" yes?! "


Why did the conversation suddenly turn to this?


“You said you would be my bride, but what could she misunderstand?”

" that.. "

“I don’t know! I really hate you.”


In the end, it was Choi Yeonjun who entered the room again, and I didn't know what to do. No, how should I appease him...?

I couldn't think of any way to appease Choi Yeonjun, who was even more upset than I thought, and the days passed like that.
