Chapter 32: Foreshadow

Yiseo and Woojin?

As Seo Yerin entered the gym and we ran into each other head-on, I raised my hand slightly and greeted her, and she did the same with a smile, but.

For some reason, her expression looked dark.

Y-you went to uni? It was PT day.

Choi Yiseo was trying to have a conversation from this side, and Seo Yerin accepted it.

Yes, I didnt specifically free any periods.

As expected, the seniors also said that its good to handle the grades in the freshman year.

They continued to talk about things but they didnt contain any specific topic. The forced continuation of the conversation made me feel a thirst, as if my throat was burning.

Yah, when are we going to the caf? I really feel like Im l going to die.

If I stayed there, I might end up drinking water from the showerhead while showering. The gym is good, but there are no paper cups placed by the water dispenser.

There was a note stating that disposable products were bad for the environment, so they couldnt put out many.

Choi Yiseo glared at me, biting her lip as if Id said something I shouldnt have.

It felt like she wanted me to shut up, but Seo Yerin had an awkward laugh on her side, disrupting the flow.

I guess youre done with your workout, sorry for holding you up for no reason.

No, its nothing to be sorry about.

Seo Yerin then headed for the changing room.

Ugh! Sometimes youre so perceptive, but at other times youre entirely clueless too!

Choi Yiseo slapped my shoulder and followed Seo Yerin into the changing room.

Feeling bad for being accused like that, I headed to the changing room too, but then,

Excuse me.

Jeong Chan-woo, who was lifting weights diligently until a moment ago, came over while wiping his sweat.

Seeing him sweat, even I could feel that it was sexy, which made it clear that he was popular.

The fact that I could feel the girls in the gym sneaking glances at him, all hinted to his popularity.

Yes?

It seemed like he had been keeping an eye on me, considering he approached me right after they left.

You seem to be close with Yerin?

Ah, since youre friends with Arin, you must know everything.

Yu Arin was Seo Yerins high school friend, and Jeong Chan-woo was Yu Arins childhood friend

It made sense for Seo Yerin and Jeong Chan-woo to be close.

Were in the same department.

As I responded bluntly, he showed a subtle expression. It seemed like he wanted to ask more, but considered it rude.

What could it be?

This feeling.

Did you just find out that Seo Yerin also goes to the same gym?

Jeong Chan-woo shook his head as I awkwardly continued to ask, noticing this as my back started to itch.

No, its not that. Ive seen her working out a few times and even greeted her.

But I didnt expect him to know her.

Ah, I dont like his personality.

Feeling slightly frustrated by Jeong Chan-woo, who was being cautious about the itchy part instead of scratching it, I asked him.

Is there something youre curious about?

Jeong Chan-woo, not expecting me to be this open, was flustered and his gaze faltered.

Showing my dislike for beating around the bush, Jeong Chan-woo sighed and said,

That, Arin and Yerin. Seeing you close to both of them reminded me of the past?

Im not close with Yu Arin.

Reminded him of the past?

I used to be quite close with the two of them. Now its turned awkward.

It doesnt seem that way with Yu Arin though?

Werent they rather friendly with each other at the PC caf? Offering ramen services and even paying for her.

However, at my question, Jeong Chan-woo had a bitter smile.

Its because Arin is kind.

She is?

I couldnt understand how a person with a bad personality could be kind.

Ah, anyway. I hope you treat both of them well. Theyre both good ones.

Saying this, Jeong Chan-woo turned to leave, but with irritation within, I asked,

You like Yu Arin, dont you?

At my words, Jeong Chan-woo abruptly stopped moving and turned his head.



I said NO! Ive gotten closer to her recently, but we arent dating.

Have you forgotten what happened after the CCd in the first semester?

I dated Oh Yoon-ji in the first semester, and broke up before the second semester, so why would I want to date another girl then?

I answered with a shocked expression, but Choi Yiseo, on the contrary, furrowed her brows and sighed.

Ahh! No, surely ahhhhh!

Why is she acting like this?

Seeing Choi Yiseo like this, it seemed like this wasnt just any other issue.

Ah, seriously!

Thud!

Eventually, unable to contain her frustration, Choi Yiseo kicked me in the shin under the table.

Ouch! Why are you taking it out on me!

As I cried out in injustice, Choi Yiseo glared at me with cold eyes.

Puah!

Its because of you that I am taking it out on you.

No, why is she being like this?

Just what happened in the locker room?



One hour ago.

Seo Yerin hurriedly entered the gym locker room upon seeing Choi Yiseo and Kim Woojin, changing her clothes while hiding her strangely complicated feelings.

Why?

Just like when she saw the two of them at the pork cutlet restaurant last time, her heart felt constricted, and it was an odd feeling.

Was she feeling left out then?

Right, one could say it was a feeling of being left out. But then again, it wasnt like she only hung out with those two either.

She had just been playing with other friends, so she couldnt complain about being left out of their trip to the gym.

Why am I behaving like this?

Seo Yerin felt frustrated as she retrieved her clothes, and then Choi Yiseo followed right behind.

Ha, haha.

An awkwardness lingered between them.

Especially since theyre women, unless theyre really close, they dont tend to show bare skin to each other, so the awkwardness intensified further.

In an extremely awkward situation, they quickly changed their clothes.

That, Yerin.

Choi Yiseo managed to gather some courage, but the timing was not great; it was right when Seo Yerin was taking off her pants.

Ah, sorry.

No, its fine. Were all girls here.

Trying to play it cool, Seo Yerin replied with a smile.

Why?

Choi Yiseos gaze was fixed on Seo Yerin.

More precisely, on Seo Yerins lower half.

Uh-Yiseo?

Despite Seo Yerin calling out in a flustered manner due to being stared at so intently,

Choi Yiseo kept staring as if enchanted, and eventually, Seo Yerin hurriedly changed her clothes.

Ah s-sorry.

Finally coming to her senses, Choi Yiseo stood there.

Seo Yerin went out with an awkward smile, but she was a little displeased at what just happened.

However, Choi Yiseo stood there, speechless.

What?

Because of

Why?

She had seen Seo Yerins body before.

Just how?

And it was from a completely unexpected phone screen.

A mole on the thigh.

Two beautiful legs without any traces of flab.

And the same panty.

Why is there a picture of Yerin on Woojins phone?

The picture of the woman with her panties showing, glimpsed on Kim Woojins phone at the pork cutlet restaurant

was Seo Yerin.
