“Are you sure you have to go today, you must be tired from last night.”
“Okay, let’s go. There are no assignments, and tomorrow is public class anyway.”
One night. The midterm exam, which was like hell, would be over, and he said that he should oil the boat after a long time, and he led Yu Ga-ryun and left the lecture hall.
After a few minutes of walking along the winding streets of Daehak-ro, following Chae Seol-ha, a blue sign with a rustic chicken character and a cracked cement wall came into view.
“Ugh, it’s already full… … .”
The inside of the chicken house was full of people making loud noises like a swarm of bees.
We managed to pierce it and sat down at the seats that the waitress showed us.
“Everyone has come to Yongke. A place that is tucked away in a corner like this.”
“Reviews posted on Aetta not too long ago were not without controversy. It used to be a house that only people in the know knew… … .”
In the review given by Chae Seol-ha, the signature dish of the restaurant, Dak Gangjeong, was dazzling with a spicy sauce coated with starch syrup.
“You know I can’t stand this. You have to eat it yourself to get it right.”
Soon after, he devoured his appetite and ate the puff pastry on the table. The ball moving with a clunking sound felt very lovely.
“Have you placed your order?”
“Oh, wait a minute. First of all, with one chicken gangjeong… … .”
“One 500 draft beer.”
Yu Ga-ryun, who was sitting next to her, raised her hand and said. The boy’s mouth was filled with a bright smile.
“Seolha, are you 500 too? Then, 500 beers, 3 glasses of chicken gangjeong. … .”
“No no no no Yu Ga-ryun, are you out of your mind!?”
Chae Seol-ha, waving her hand with a shocked expression, intervened between me and the employee.
“Oh, my sister. I’m really good now-“
“Noisy! Oh, I’m sorry. I’ll have one cola for two 500 glasses.”
“Ah, yes, please wait a moment and I will bring it to you.”
After completing the order, Chae Seol-ha took a rough breath and began to stare at Yu Ga-ryun with her halibut-like eyes. Then, Ga-ryun Yu pouted her lips as if in disappointment, then turned her head.
“What’s going on, again. Would you be so upset that I ordered you a beer?”
I couldn’t help but feel that Yu Ga-ryun was on my mind, so I impliedly spoke to Chae Seol-ha.
“then. It’s going to be upsetting. don’t be angry If you see a face wandering around without being able to come to your senses even after giving out such a Satan three times.”
“sister! It was because I wasn’t feeling well at the time. Gee, it’s different now. I practiced while drinking with my parents at home… .”
“Yeah, anyway, your mother texted me. Don’t let your mouth drink alcohol.”
“… … .”
She sighed deeply as she looked at Yu Ga-ryun wiggling her fingers with her head bowed, and opened her mouth.
“Girun is very weak to alcohol. Instead of soju, if you drink a sip of beer, you’ll be joking and begging.”
“If you stretch out, we can take you there. You don’t have to stop eating.”
“If it ended with stretching, I wouldn’t say anything. He’s not like that. If you just drink alcohol, you become a completely different person.”
As Chae Seol-ha continues to speak, wrinkles begin to grow on her forehead.
It’s rare for him to get angry about anything—especially for his cherished little brother, Ga-ryun—if Chae Seol-ha blushes like that, what the hell happened?
“After the first entrance exam… … . So, it was the day Ga-ryun had finished her practical exam.”
“Oh, my sister!”
Ga-ryun Yu hurriedly tried to cover Cha Seol-ha’s mouth, but Chae Seol-ha grabbed Yu Ga-ryun’s cheek and stretched it out, as if nothing had happened.
“Somehow, a story came up saying, ‘Garyun, you’re an adult now, would you like to drink some alcohol?’ Well, I was very excited that day. You know how bad it feels to stay in an art academy after the entrance exam and watch other kids play. It all came out.”
“Well.”
“Anyway, I went to the pub that night like this. Because he wants to eat chimaek like that.”
Chae Seol-ha’s eyes were losing their light like rotten dynamics.
“As soon as I took a sip, the response came immediately. My ears are turning red, and my head is popping and I can’t keep my focus. And with a twisted tongue, ‘Sister, sister.’ But it was cute at first. Then he suddenly came over and started kissing me on the cheek.”
“Puff.”
I spit out the water I was drinking. Yu Ga-ryun, who was sitting next to her, had been covering her face with her palms for a long time.
“’I love you, sister, I like you.’ They hugged each other and rubbed their faces while swaying, but I wanted something like this. But, well, I was able to survive up to that point.”
He licked his lips and continued talking.
“After a while, I didn’t respond, so he moved to the next table. Then.”
“Ouch-! Ah-!”
Ga-ryun Yu started a riot and cut off Chae Seol-ha’s words. Of course, the result was two cheeks that stretched like glutinous rice cakes.
“I showed my picture to the people sitting there and said, ‘My sister is pretty. I’m going to marry this older sister.’ But since those people don’t say anything and stay still, they start banging on the table saying, ‘Tell me you’re pretty!’ and start flashing.”
“Great.”
“I was really surprised… … . I went to the table over there and said I’m sorry, because this is my first time drinking, so I asked him to understand me, and he brought me back, but suddenly he collapsed on the floor. And they start screaming loud enough to leave the restaurant saying, ‘I love Seolha unnie, marry me.’ In the end, the boss there even called the police.”
As she listened to the story, it seemed that steam was gushing out from the top of her head.
“There, it was in front of my house, so I used to go there quite often, but I haven’t been there since that day. I’m sold out.”
“It’s worth it.”
I quietly paid my respects to Chae Seol-ha.
“It does not end there. The second one caught a streamer who was broadcasting at the Han River Park and was caught in a riot, and the third was a birthday party at my house and the table was smashed because I drank the wrong wine my father brought to lighten the mood. Caught. Why didn’t you give me to you?”
Various questions ran through my mind, but I didn’t ask any more. Because I wasn’t sure my brain could handle that information.
“The excuse was always the same. I wasn’t feeling well, it’s because my mind wasn’t ready… … And that was the result of believing it. So I won’t be angry and I’ll be exhausted.”
“Hey, I’m sorry. I don’t know the circumstances and I feel like I’ve been here for nothing.”
“No, how many people in the world can expect such a thing? Anyway, what I want to say is.”
After taking a little time to catch snow, he opened his mouth with a serious expression.
“Never let alcohol get in his mouth.”
* * *
understood.
The words Chae Seol-ha said to me that day, and the weight on his back, I can understand now.
“Brother, take this off. It hides the smell.”
At the touch of a smooth finger penetrating the inside of my clothes without warning, I let out a pitiful voice and ran backwards.
“Where are you going.”
The figure of Yu Ga-ryun, crawling on all fours, combined with her droopy white hair, felt very eerie.
“Baby girl, you’re drunk. I’m not crazy. How are you going to see my face tomorrow?”
“yes? Am I crazy? I can see your face, expression, and pores all clearly.”
I’m completely out of my mind Aroused by that single word, I lifted Yu Ga-ryun with both arms. Once you put it on the bed and put it to sleep, it’ll be fine.
“Wow, what. What is it? Where are you going with me?”
Ga-ryun Yu took a hurrah pose with her arms wide open with an excited expression like a child on a wooden horse.
“Then if you fall, you’ll have a lot of trouble, so stay still.”
“Well then.”
Ga-ryun Yu, who was struggling like freshly caught tuna, suddenly jumped up and wrapped her arms around the nape of my neck.
“I will do this.”
Ga-ryeon Yu put her nose on the nape of my neck again and began to breathe. And then he licks my collarbone and licks my collarbone.
“Let’s see.”
The strange touch of the slippery tongue and the hot heat flowed down his skin.
Startled, I let out a groan and shook my head as if resisting. However, the molester in my arms just opened his mouth and licked his lips without saying a word of apology.
“You roar with something that doesn’t taste good. Well, it really doesn’t taste that bad. How could they all be so bitter and tasteless? He really is a person who doesn’t even have a lot of eyebrows in a pretty corner.”
My hand holding the boy’s thigh began to tremble with agitation.
