CH 13

    When I woke up, Choi Sung-hoon wasn’t there.?


    ?


    I woke up alone in my messed up room, and then I turned off the loud alarm. I needed to get up and get ready for work, but it was impossible for me to do so.?


    ?


    [Because my heat broke out a day early, I’ll take my annual leave from Friday and return to work on Monday.] ?


    ?


    My hands were trembling and it took me 5 minutes to type a short message. I threw the phone away and went back to sleep without even looking at the section chief’s response.?


    ?


    I was so tired both physically and mentally. After a while of sleeping like I was dead, I felt something touch my bangs.?


    ?


    It was big and warm…?


    ?


    After stroking my bangs a few times and patting my shoulder on the blanket, it went away.?


    ?


    I whined in regret, but the touch never returned.?


    ?


    ***?


    ?


    The time I woke up again was 8 PM.?


    ?


    I was astounded to see the hour hand pointing to eight.?


    ?


    When I sleep with Choi Sung Hoon, I become fishy and walk like a newborn deer? I’m sure it was a dying deer!?


    ?


    Damn it, I can’t do anything. My bottom was tingling and it felt like something was still in it. I really don’t know what to do. I thought it was more difficult than the previous time. ?


    ?


    It doesn’t seem like Choi Sung-hoon disappeared without a word, and he probably left a message, but I don’t even dare to go pick up the cell phone that I threw out of bed.?


    ?


    My body was just a mess.?


    ?


    “Ah…” ?


    ?


    When I tried to make a voice, I got the sound of scratching metal rather than a person. That was also a 50-year-old, worn-out iron.?


    ?


    It was the first time I was so excited. It’s not like I’d never slept with a dominant Alpha before…?


    ?


    Was it because of the penis that resembled a weapon? Or was it the never-ending desperation??


    ?


    I touched my stomach. Fortunately, it was flat. Then I touched my hole with my finger. My precious base was pitifully swollen.?


    ?


    First, I should wash up, then apply some medicine, then eat… and let’s go back to sleep.?


    ?


    I woke up with great difficulty.?


    ?


    “Ughhhh…”?


    ?


    Did I have a fight yesterday instead of having sex??


    ?


    My legs were trembling, and my entire body was throbbing. ?


    ?


    “Ughhhh… Damn it.”?


    ?


    I groaned and got out of bed. It wasn’t until I got out of bed that I realized the boiler was on in the house. It appears to have been running all day…?


    ?


    Damn it… ?


    ?


    That’s right. I’m sick, so let’s experience some extravagance, so I tried to erase the phrase “Gas bill” from my mind.?


    ?


    I re-draped myself in the blanket and climbed out of bed. The phone’s battery was running low.?


    ?


    There was a message from the section chief saying [Sure haha, call me in case of an emergency~~~], one from my uncle that said [Call me when you wake up], and three missed calls. Also from Won-jo [Let’s drink after your heat is over.] Everything else was notifications of discounts from nearby marts and ex-lovers.?


    ?


    What… there wasn’t even a phone call or a message from Choi Sung-hoon??


    ?


    I was irritated. I thought he was a dominant alpha with manners, but he was a jerk who ate Omega until he fainted and then left him in a dirty bed.?


    ?


    Sigh, I guess this was all my karma. Well, it was not like we are meeting each other.?


    ?


    Ring, ring, ring.?


    ?


    I leaned against the wall as I struggled to get up, and then the phone rang. It was my uncle.?


    ?


    “Why?”?


    ?


    – Uh-huh, why is your tone like this when an adult is calling??


    ?


    “I am not feeling well. What’s wrong?”?


    ?


    Ughh…?


    ?


    I made my way to the living room in excruciating pain. I walked slowly because I felt like my body was about to collapse.?


    ?


    – Let’s move up a week. CEO Jin is busy at the beginning of the year.?


    ?


    “A week? When exactly?”?


    ?


    Oh shit. The living room lights were on too. Sigh.?


    ?


    – 24th?


    ?


    “On the 24th? Christmas Eve?”?


    ?


    I took a look at the calendar that was hung on the wall in the living room. This year’s Christmas Eve was on Saturday.?


    ?


    Ahh… ?


    ?


    My legs were trembling and I couldn’t stand for long, so I ended up sitting. But when I sat down, my back and buttocks hurt, so I just laid down.?


    ?


    – In fact, the boss has already reserved a room. You know how difficult it is to find a room at that time, right? When else would you go to the ○○ Hotel suite??


    ?


    “Hmm…”?


    ?


    I pretended to be concerned by pressing my stinging forehead down and responded.?


    ?


    “Okay. On the 24th, ○○ Hotel suite, right? What time??


    ?


    – It’s 10 pm.?


    ?


    – Click.?


    ?


    I snorted.?


    ?


    You’re going to have a meeting in the suite room at 10 p.m? Both he and my uncle had an explicit intention for me.?


    ?


    When I hung up, the phone which had been running low on battery for some time was also turned off.?


    ?


    I lay down on the spot looking at the ceiling, put my hand on my forehead, and closed my eyes.?


    ?


    It was a little uncomfortable, but I made the appointment on Christmas Eve anyway.?


    ?


    I recalled he was a 45 year old wealthy dominant Alpha and the head of the Math academy that had commercial buildings in the countryside. Why was it in the countryside? Do I have to live in the countryside if I marry? It makes no difference if he insists on going. I just want to be a good person regardless of where I live. Someone who can have a peaceful marriage and raise two children.?


    ?


    “You’re so slow-witted.”?


    ?


    “Waaaa!”?


    ?


    I screamed. When I jumped up and looked to the side where I could hear my voice, I noticed a huge man standing like a pillar in the kitchen.?


    ?


    It was Choi Sung-hoon. He was leaning against an old refrigerator with his arms folded, and a pitiful expression on his face as he looked at me.?


    ?


    “What?”?


    ?


    “Yeah, I said the truth.”?


    ?


    Choi Sung-hoon approached the cup of water on the table, then pointing his finger at the man dressed in a perfect suit and acting like a statue. Now that I saw it, there were three laptops on the table.?


    ?


    It looks like he was working with it. However, it was a strange sight that didn’t fit in with the surroundings. I guess I’ll just have to get used to it.?


    ?


    He bent his knees and sat in front of me.?


    ?


    “Drink it first.”?


    ?


    I took the water and drank it in a daze. The water temperature was lukewarm.?


    ?


    Phew…?


    ?


    After drinking it all, I tapped my pounding chest and asked, ?


    ?


    “What happened? Didn’t you go?”?


    ?


    “I’ve been here the whole time.”?


    ?


    “Your clothes are different from yesterday?”?


    ?


    “I asked them to bring it.”?


    ?


    Wow… Did he wash up, change, and get his hair done here??


    ?


    He’s a diligent person. I was both embarrassed and amazed at the same time.?


    ?


    “How come you didn’t wake me up?”?


    ?


    “I had no idea you’d sleep for so long. I was going to gradually wake you up.”?


    ?


    I was about to say that I fainted instead of sleeping.?


    ?


    Choi Sung-hoon helped me in getting up. He sat me on the sofa and carefully wrapped the blanket around my neck.?


    ?


    Then he knelt down and looked at me in the eyes.?


    ?


    There was no disorganized hair. Manly brows, a straight nose bridge, a firm chin, and even a scar on the cheeks.?


    ?


    Why was he getting more and more handsome? Was it because I slept with him twice??


    ?


    Unlike him, who has a perfect figure, I was embarrassed to discover that I looked like a crucian carp.?


    ?


    “Is your body okay?”?


    ?


    “Is your conscience okay?“?


    ?


    He grinned when I retorted. When I asked about it, I was one hundred percent serious.?


    ?


    “Why didn’t you go?”?


    ?


    “Because I have a good conscience.“?


    ?


    He stroked my bangs back as he replied.  It was such a natural action, and I remained motionless because I wanted to be stroked more.?


    ?


    “The meal is in the refrigerator, so you just have to heat it up. I also put the medicine on the table.”?


    ?


    “Yes…thank you.”?


    ?


    “Can you do it?”?


    ?


    “Of course, I’m not a child… I’m 27.”?


    ?


    He smiled briefly as I spoke grumpily. And he patted my head twice with his big hand as if he was amused with me.?


    ?


    My face felt like it was burning, so I drew the blanket over my eyes.?


    ?


    His tall figure strode to the table and cleared the messy table. He stuffed three laptops and a stack of documents into a large briefcase before pulling his coat from a hanger in the living room.?


    ?


    It was unbelievable to see a man walking around my house as if it were his own.?


    ?


    Choi Sung-hoon said as he tucked his arms into his coat,?


    ?


    “Now that you’re awake, I’ll get going.”?


    ?


    “…You really going?” ?


    ?


    Even when I heard it, the voice was filled with regret.?


    ?


    Choi Sung-hoon took a brief pause before crossing his arms and approaching me. Then he looked down at me with black eyes of unknown depth.?


    ?


    “If we’re going to do it again, I’ll stay.”?


    ?


    The moment I heard the low voice, I came to my senses.?


    ?


    I hunched my shoulders and strengthened my grip on the blanket.?


    ?


    ” Goodbye!”?


    ?


    “…”?


    ?


    “Take a rest,” he said after a brief laugh.  He did not hesitate and walked straight out the front door, like a cold-hearted psycho.?


    ?


    The front door was soon shut and the door lock was heard. I was still perplexed, so I sat for a long time, blinking my eyes dazedly.?


    ?


    The house quickly fell silent, and all I could hear was the old refrigerator running.?


    ?


    “Ah…”?


    ?


    Only then did I come to my senses and sighed deeply as I looked around the kitchen.?


    ?


    A gas stove full of grime, a cabinet with one door missing, an empty beer can in the dishwasher, an unwashed ramen pot in the trash bin… The side dishes I bought at the market about a month ago were in the refrigerator. They must be producing mold… and how much more…?


    ?


    “Fuck…”?


    ?


    Yeah, anyway, I didn’t have to protect my image from Choi Sung-hoon, did I? ?


    ?


    I’ll just add one more embarrassing moment…?


    ?


    I staggered into the bathroom to wash up.?


    ?


    I almost fell backward when I saw myself in the bathroom mirror. Choi Sung-hoon, who did not laugh at this face, must be a psychopath.?


    ?


    I had a hard time in the shower and came out in a gown when I’m done. I became increasingly hungry, so I opened the refrigerator and saw a white bag.?


    ?


    What was it??


    ?


    There was no franchise logo, and it was served in a pricey-looking bowl. Choi Sung-hoon would not have made it himself, but it doesn’t seem that he purchased it anywhere.?


    ?


    After warming up and tasting a spoonful, I gave Choi Sung-hoon great generosity and exclude the modifier “psychopath.”?


    ?


    ***?


    ?


    The next morning, I put strawberries in an empty bowl and contemplated how to return them.?


    ?


    If it were possible, I’d keep it. However it seemed to be very luxurious and expensive, so I thought I should return it.?


    ?


    After much deliberation, I picked up my cell phone and sent a message to Choi Sung-hoon.?


    ?


    [Thank you for the porridge. How should I return the bowl?]?


    ?


    As soon as I pressed send, I could hear the bell ringing.?


    ?


    Ding-dong?


    ?


    When I went out, I saw a man dressed in a black suit standing there. It was the gangster-looking brother who was tricked into playing hide and seek.?


    ?


    “You’re at home.”?


    ?


    “Yeah… did you come to pick up the bowl? Wait a minute.”?


    ?


    The timing was right and I didn’t ask the stupid question about how he knew my house. I wrapped the bowl of strawberries in plastic wrap and put it in my shopping bag.?


    ?


    “Here you go. I put some strawberries inside, so you should eat some too.”?


    ?


    ” …. “?


    ?


    He took the shopping bag and handed me another paper bag.?


    ?


    I received it without knowing what was inside, but it was quite heavy. When I looked inside, there were four large lunch boxes that looked like they had 8 tiers.?


    ?


    OMG??


    ?


    “I’ll come at this time tomorrow.”?


    ?


    “Yes? Wait!”?


    ?


    The gangster-looking brother gave me the paper bag with the lunch box and went down the stairs without looking back.?


    ?


    I brought it in dazedly.?


    ?


    Stir-fried squid jjolmyeon, eggplant with burdock root, vegetable pancakes, beef bulgogi, marinated crab… There were also a variety of side dishes and yukgaejang soup, as well as fresh fruits in a round container.?


    ?


    I could eat three meals a day with this.?


    ?


    Vibrate, vibrate, vibrate?


    ?


    My phone vibrated while I was staring blankly at the colorful lunch box.?


    ?


    Choi Seong-hoon [I prepared it because I thought your body might not have gotten better yet. You have to eat it]?


    ?


    This man… my heart, it was the perfect time to tell him…?


    ?


    I used a lot of emoticons to say thank you.?


    ?


    I didn’t have any side dishes at home and I was tired, so I was going to cook ramen. The day passed by with three luxurious meals.?


    ?


    The same thing happened on Thursday.?


    ?


    ‘Am I flirting with this guy?’ I wondered as I looked down at the lunchbox containing the disheveled goose liver.?


    ?


    Ay, no way.?


    ?


    There was no way the wealthy, dominant Alpha Choi Sung-hoon would flirt with me, and he might be unaware that I am a recessive Omega. However, it was difficult to tell if he enjoyed our sex because I couldn’t show my technique and was swayed and shaken by him. What was it??


    ?


    Sympathy? Responsibility??


    ?


    Was it compensation??


    ?


    Whatever it was, it was not good for me.?


    ?


    This feather-light heart might have unreasonable expectations, so I’ll have to crack down on it thoroughly.?


    ?


    So, on Friday morning, I said to the gangster-like brother, who had come for the third day in a row.?


    ?


    “You can stop bringing me food now. My body has gotten better.”?


    ?


    “Yes, I will only give you today. Seo-yu ssi, please tell the director.”?


    ?


    “Yes.”?


    ?


    The gangster-like brother seemed very familiar with these errands, so I became curious. I asked while trying to receive the lunch box he had given me.?


    ?


    “Does Choi Sung-hoon always take care of his one-night counterparts like this?”?


    ?


    “…”?


    ?


    “It’s the first time I’ve seen someone like this. Usually, it’s over after a one night-…”?


    ?


    “Don’t be mistaken.”?


    ?


    The gangster-like brother’s eyes changed and filled with disgust. Even the polite honorifics also changed in an instant.?


    ?


    “Because you are close to little boss Sung-hyun, the boss cares about you. However, he doesn’t like you, so don’t misunderstand. Our boss always has good manners, so it’s not just one or two empty-headed omega kitties who misunderstand it. Even a rag like you was just one of them, so don’t think you’re special. Do you understand?”?


    ?


    I looked up at the angry gangster-like brother and smiled as hard as I could to seem helpless and harmless.?


    ?


    “I know. Don’t worry. I don’t misunderstand that.“?


    ?


    “…”?


    ?


    “I am well aware that Choi Sung-hoon and I live in different worlds. I’m not going to climb a tree that I can’t even climb just because we had a few sexes. I know my fountain well.”?


    ?


    “… “?


    ?


    “The question could have been so misleading. I’m sorry. I was asking too rashly.”?


    ?


    It was difficult to smile because of my sense of shame. But I closed my eyes and smiled. The gangster-like brother was deafeningly quiet. He seemed to sense that something wasn’t quite right, and he seemed surprised.?


    ?


    Were you not going to accept my apology? So you were going to tell the boss when you went back? Omega, with whom you’ve slept a few times, acts as if he was something special.?


    ?


    I’m not like that, and I didn’t do it on purpose. I asked because I was really curious.?


    ?


    “…You are not empty-headed.”?


    ?


    I was relieved by the answer that came out soon. Does this mean that you accept my apologies??


    ?


    I apologized one after another when he handed me the lunch box.?


    ?


    He had a gloomy expression on his face the whole time.?


    ?


    “Thank you for today as well. Goodbye~” ?


    ?


    When the door locked, I stood in front of it for a while, and I heard the sound of the gangster-like brother going down the stairs.?


    ?


    My head was dizzy.?


    ?


    I put down the lunch box calmly, grabbed my phone, and texted Choi Sung-hoon.?


    ?


    [You don’t have to give me lunch boxes anymore~~~~ I’m so sorry for troubling you~ Thank you for the past few days~ I’ll buy you dinner later]?


    ?


    I instantly regretted sending it. I shouldn’t have said that I would buy him a meal later… It might seem to be a trick. But I couldn’t help myself…?


    ?


    I picked up the lunch box and placed it on the table. Today’s meal was also lavish. I opened it one step at a time and smiled in disappointment.?


    ?


    Who takes care of their one-night stand partner’s meals for three days after having sex twice? Choi Sung-hoon was not an ordinary person either. This was why I shouldn’t have misunderstood anything.?


    ?


    Thanks to the gangster-like brother’s stinging reminder, I came to my senses.?


    ?


    Choi Sung-hoon has a good subordinate. Let’s think of this as compensation.?


    ?


    The lunch box tastes bitter today.
