"Let's flirt, officially"
23 โข Because of you, I'm okay now




๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Our former president, would you like to explain?


์ ์ ๊ตญ
...I just found out about it.


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
lie .

_ I looked into your eyes, which were glued to the wall like gum and were very nervous, and you were trembling.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
That's it...


์ ์ ๊ตญ
I know it's been a while, but if you knew... you'd definitely get hurt one way or another...

_ You must have been very scared by the continued questioning, because you finally confessed everything you knew.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Well, if you knew... you wouldn't like it very much.

_ Seeing you so relaxed, I put down my arm that was pressed against the wall and held your big hand tightly.


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Sigh, you idiot...


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Well, you have to know what you need to know. Don't you think it's more foolish not to know?


์ ์ ๊ตญ
...I know that, but...

_ Still, perhaps because he felt sorry, he held my hand tightly and stroked it, and the back of my hand felt rough, perhaps because he had been through a lot.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Sorry ...


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Okay, it's all in the past, what's the use?

Swish, -

_ A large, bulky figure embraced me and spoke to my ear in a small, firm, and affectionate voice.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
I won't keep secrets again...


์ ์ ๊ตญ
And I will make sure this never happens again.

Pat pat -

_ I patted your broad back, and you clung to me even more like a child, but on the other hand, I felt really sad.

_ I could tell that I was truly unloved, because I had never received my mother's love since I was born.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Your arms are so warm...

Sigh, -


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Yeah, yeah - don't worry.


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
As I said last time, I will never leave you, so you can act up whenever things get tough.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Nod - ) Yeah, I will.

Click, -

๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
Huh? .. This is an interesting tip? .

Tadadadak, -

_ I was typing while drinking Americano with my legs crossed, and at that moment, the smartphone that was next to me _ started ringing.

Rrrrrrrrr .

_ Hee-joo's expression suddenly improved as she put down her coffee cup and picked up her smartphone to check the caller.


๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
๐ - What's wrong with you, oppa?


์ ์ ํ
๐ - It's nothing else, I have a favor to ask.


๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
๐ - Yeah! Just say it, oppa. If it's a request, I'll do anything.

_ With the phone between my shoulders and a cup of coffee in one hand, I started organizing my documents and listening to Jeong-Hyeon's story with my ears.


์ ์ ํ
๐ - The point is, I hope you don't publish the tip you received as an article.

Bang! , -

_ He put down the documents and coffee cup violently, held the cell phone straight in his hand, and spoke firmly to Jeong-hyeon.


๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
๐ - Sorry, that won't work.


๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
๐ - This is an opportunity I can't give up, in many ways, right?


์ ์ ํ
๐ - Listen to me....

_ Before he could finish speaking, Joohee cut off Jeonghyun and said only what she wanted to say.


๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
๐ - Come visit me whenever you want, because I'll always welcome you as my brother~.

Side, -

_ After kissing the phone, he smiled and hung up the phone call.


๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
Hehe - ) As expected, my brother is cute - .


๊ธฐ์ โข ์ฐํฌ์ฃผ
Hmm, when should I blow it up? ~

Tillyrik, -

Tadadadak, -

Po-ok, -


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Are you here? ...

_ You smelled like alcohol all over your body, and you looked really happy. Then you hugged me and acted cute like I had never seen you before.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Embarrassed - ) Did you drink? ...


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Besisi - ) Yeah! .

_ I think I drank a lot while I was out for a bit because something came up at the company, and it only took me 2 hours to get home.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Wait a minute, let's go inside and talk.

_ I supported you and headed to the living room, and what I saw in the living room left me speechless.



์ ์ ๊ตญ
Ridiculous - ) How much did you drink? ...

_ At first glance, there were several bottles of beer and soju on the table, and it seemed like they had already finished drinking them.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
One... two... three, 5 cans of beer and 3 bottles of soju?


์ ์ ๊ตญ
You spoke very well.


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Hehe, I drank it because I felt so good -

_ As you were about to pour beer and soju into a large beer glass and drink them, I quickly grabbed your wrist and stopped you.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Stop eating, you're drinking too much by yourself...

_ I snatched the cup away from him out of concern, took a sip of it for him, and put the beer glass down on the table in front of the sofa.

Bang! , -


์ ์ ๊ตญ
How did you drink all this?


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
That's because I'm still young and don't know the true taste of alcohol.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
We're the same age, but what makes us young...

_ You crawled up onto the sofa and lay down, and I leaned against the sofa with my arms as support and looked at your face up close.


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Phew... I was actually really worried...


์ ์ ๊ตญ
what? .


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
I'm really afraid that you won't be able to get away from that woman...


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Even though we weren't together... it was hard just listening to it, so how hard must it have been for you to endure it...

_ I took out the blanket that was on the sofa without saying a word, covered you with it as you lay next to me, and sat down on the sofa and patted you silently.

Pat pat -


์ ์ ๊ตญ
are you okay ,


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Now that you're here by my side, what's the problem?

_ You were drunk and emotional, and tears flowed down your eyes as you closed them, and I quietly wiped them away.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Stop, it's okay now.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
Let's sleep and talk tomorrow?


๋์ฌ์ฃผ
Yeah....

_ I patted you a few times and put you to sleep with a soft voice. After a while, you fell asleep and I confirmed that you were asleep.



์ ์ ๊ตญ
Good night, and thank you.


์ ์ ๊ตญ
"Thank you for being by my side."
