075. Why are you here?

Doah drinks…?

That’s also a drinking party with boys…?

Class content has long since become insignificant background noise.

In my mind, there was only Do-ah and the unknown male junior sitting next to her.

Minji was defeated because she used the pushy style typical of those insiders, but I was screaming inside.

I hate it!

Kim Do-ah! Don’t go! Don’t go!

But I was the one who got caught up in the atmosphere and gave permission, not anyone else.

Even when Do-ah asked again for confirmation, I said it was okay to go, so it was hard for me to go back on my words.

It does look a bit cheesy…

I pretended to let it go in a cool way, but when I thought about it again, I felt like there was something wrong with saying no.

Still, what I disliked was something I disliked.

Ah. Should we talk properly next time…

I wondered if Doa was paying attention to her class, whether she knew how I felt or not…

…Huh?

The letters that Doa’s right hand had scribbled on her paper caught her eyes.

Notes left in a place far too far away to be considered handwritten.

It was written in small words, but it was enough to make it easy to understand.

[Go home and sipper…]

[I’m hungry…]

[I don’t even like drinking parties…]

It seemed like my girlfriend was filtering the professor’s words on her own, similar to me.

As if scribbling down her words wasn’t enough, Doah drew a heart with her face in complete concentration.

A straight heart that looks like it was printed on a computer.

I kept looking at it, wondering what she was drawing on it, but what Doa drew was a very cute-looking cat.

As if he wanted to touch her cheeks, Doa even placed a stick on her face as if she were blushing, and slightly nodded her head.

…Why does he look so proud? Kim Do-ah.

I found that look very cute and smiled.

I made a note by slightly tearing the backing paper and wanted to try the handwriting that I did in elementary school.

What should I write?

[What time are you going home today?]

I folded up her paper and flicked it toward Doa, who glanced at me and unfolded her note.

Doa, who must have read everything, wrote something on the piece of paper and held it out to me.

[Before 12 o’clock?]

…12 O’clock? 12 O’clock?

No! It’s too late!

I was supposed to drink from 7 o’clock, but I’m drinking until 12 o’clock?

I was thinking of 10 o’clock as the Maginot Line, so I couldn’t help but be mentally attacked by the straight handwriting.

[Drinking for 5 hours?]

Actually, I almost never went out for drinks, and because I was sick, I never stayed longer than 2 hours.

From my perspective, I could only think that 5 hours would be absolutely ruinous.

[See?]

Report…? So doesn’t that mean it could be longer?

I tore the note into pieces out of nervousness and decided to come to a conclusion.

I took my phone out of my pocket, opened my contacts, and searched for the name.

[Seo Yoon-je]

I didn’t feel like it, but it was necessary.

I thought opening her hand to him was a handshake, but I never intended to send Doa alone.

[Drinking tonight?]

For the first time, I was the one who invited him to have a drink first.

* * *

“Ah… It’s annoying…”

I decided to go out, so I went there, but when I got home, the desire to go out disappeared.

The weather is cold and there is a lot to do.

I was wondering if I should go just because something came up, but I felt like putting on makeup was a waste, so I packed up my belongings.

I should leave a text message to my brother.

My boyfriend didn’t look good when I told him I was going out for drinks.

If I had been told not to go, I wouldn’t have gone.

The vibration that rings as soon as you take out your phone.

I swiped the screen with my thumb, feeling that it would save me a lot of effort.

[Hello?]

[Uh. Hello?]

[Huh? It looks like it’s outside?]

I was able to notice it right away because I didn’t hear any noise when I was talking on the phone at home.

It was noisy and felt like a restaurant or bar.

[Ah. I also made an appointment with my friend because you said you were going to hang out today.]

[Who is your friend?]

I don’t know if he knew what I was talking about, but I was curious.

It seemed like my brother mostly just watched broadcasts alone during break time.

High school friend? Or maybe a close college classmate?

Who are you watching it with?

[Yoonje!]

[…Seo Yoon-je’s brother?]

I frowned at the unexpected name.

It might have been better for someone I didn’t know.

I felt a little uneasy when I heard that I was going to hang out with Yoonje, who is famous for being open to women.

[Oh!]

[Are you two watching?]

[I don’t know? Could there be more to come?]

I instinctively tried to ask if women could come too, but I thought this was a bit too narrow-minded.

Me too… I’m not close with him, but I’m going to a drinking party with a guy.

I thought it was funny that she was so stubborn towards her brother.

[I’m going to leave now. Everything is ready.]

[Don’t drink too much. It would be good if you contact me in the meantime.]

It felt good to hear something like that come out of my brother’s mouth.

Yes. Because I can come back soon.

I thought I could show my brother as much faith as he showed me.

[Yes. My brother had fun too. Contact me in the middle.]

[Yes. I’ll call you again.]

I put on my sneakers, buttoned my coat, and went outside.

Umm… It’s cold…

The meeting place, Pocha, is near the back gate of the school.

When I arrived and went inside, my class had already occupied the table in the center.

“Oh! “Doa has arrived!”

Minji got up from her seat and came towards me.

“Doa. “Sit here!”

She pulled my arm and sat me down on the edge of the table and poured soju into her glass.

“Hey! “If you come late, you know you have to match the tempo, right?”

“…You’re not really late?”

I was only 5 minutes late?

“A. But we already had one drink each. “You drink too.”

It was a bit absurd, but it was about a glass of soju.

I grabbed the soju glass and poured the drink in one go.

“Ugh. It tastes awful.”

“Doa, it’s because I’m so happy living these days.”

Suin looked at me and smiled.

“Kya~ I’m jealous! “I’m dating Taemin oppa!”

“A. “What am I jealous of?”

I was somewhat embarrassed and smiled awkwardly.

“Hey! You know that the next story is unconditional. “The kids are all really curious.”

…Yes?

Do you want me to tell you about my love story?

When I encountered an unexpected difficulty, I felt like my head was spinning.

No. What. You might be curious.

Of course, even if you were like me, you would be curious if your friend had a very handsome boyfriend.

But our relationship is full of secrets.

In order to explain this, I had to reveal that I was an internet idol and that my brother was a b*tch who was crazy about vertubers.

“Okay. “It looks like we’re all there, so Hansoo says he’ll say something!”

At the table opposite where a large number of boys were gathered, a person with sad eyes raised his glass.

“Haa… Sibbal…”

As expected, the drinking party itself was fun as he was going to the military, but his feelings seemed to be mixed.

“Ah! I don’t know! Life sucks! Braided!!!”

For a toast, there was a lot of profanity mixed in, but I could understand it since I was being dragged to a place I didn’t want to spend quite a long time.

“Ah. So, our Doa-chan! “When are you going to tell me?”

Minji spoke in a sly uncle-like tone and put her hands around my waist, making me startle and move my hips to the side.

“Aww! A little! I’ll tell you later. “Have a drink.”

Roughly speaking, I felt like I needed to make something up today, talk about it, and come up with a proper script later with my brother.

It would be impossible for my brother to reveal my identity when talking to his friends.

As I took a moment to listen to the kids’ stories, I thought hard about how I could move on as naturally as possible.

“Wow~ Is everyone feeling good today?”

The atmosphere is becoming more and more ripe.

How much did you drink?

It felt like we drank at least one bottle of soju per person.

I felt slightly intoxicated, and when I touched my cheeks with my fingers, they seemed to be moderately hot.

“Hey! Hey! Let’s play a drinking game! Drinking game! “Today the main character wants to play a game!”

The boys started shouting among themselves and invited everyone to play a game together.

B. But I’m not really good at games.

I had never played a drinking game before, so I had a high chance of winning, but I couldn’t help but cry.

Ah… I want to go home… Let me go home…

“Ah, Hansu’s favorite random game! “What kind of game~ game~ start!”

Everyone plays the game by rotating their arms vigorously.

And predictions always become reality.

“Wow, you’re drinking well~”

After drinking three glasses of soju in a row, I stood up slightly stumbling.

“Hey. “I need to go to the bathroom.”

It wasn’t enough to make me lose my mind.

But if you drink more than one bottle here, there may be a crisis.

I felt like I needed to contact my brother soon, so I took out my cell phone while standing in line in front of the bathroom.

Three messages from my brother.

[Are you having fun?]

[Where are you now?]

[There is no contact…?]

I thought that my brother was waiting, so I checked how much time had passed.

[20:37]

Approximately an hour and a half has passed.

I thought it was an awkward time to say that I couldn’t contact you.

But that moment when I type because I feel like I need to reply quickly.

“Doya.”

A voice I know, although I am not familiar with it.

When I raised my head and looked in front, there was a person standing in front of me whose reason he was here was unknown.

“Huh? “Why are you here, Yoonje?”

I heard that he had obviously gone out with Taemin oppa, but for some reason he was standing in front of the restroom of the bar where I was.

“Why are you waiting? “Your boyfriend dragged you here.”

…Taemin oppa?

“Hey. “Please do something about your boyfriend.”

When Yoonje turned his body in the direction where his chin was flicked and looked toward the hall, inside that deep corner.

My boyfriend, who was giving off an evil energy, was chewing corn fiercely.
