“There was a time when the term ‘bagel girl’ was popular. When I was in college. Professor, you might not believe it, but I occasionally heard such comments unintentionally.”
“Bagel girl?”
“I can’t say it out loud, so if you don’t know the meaning, try searching.”
“I know the meaning, but that…”
Hyun-woo made a playful expression.
Contrary to the confidence in his voice and gestures, her ears and cheeks turned as red as if they were being heated in an oven.
While observing this with slightly loosened eye corners, Hyun-woo made a strange sound, “Cook,” and laughed.
“Huh? Are you laughing at me now?”
“No, why would I laugh at you.”
Hyun-woo pressed his hand against his lips, trying to suppress his laughter, which made Soo-ri look at him with a thoroughly embarrassed expression.
“But why do you keep laughing?”
“Because it’s funny. I’ll keep laughing.”
Hahaha, he burst into laughter, soaking his head completely. Soo-ri’s face suddenly turned bright red.
“When did I make you laugh?”
I don’t know.
As Soo-ri watched Yoo Soo-ri’s actions, laughter erupted from her like someone who had inhaled laughing gas.
Ding-dong. Meanwhile, the elevator stopped. The floor it stopped at wasn’t the lobby but the 20th floor.
Wondering who might get on, Soo-ri moved even closer to Hyun-woo. In that moment, Hyun-woo grabbed Soo-ri’s hand and intertwined their fingers.
“Getting off?”
“Why here?”
He answered nonchalantly with a pleasantly surprised expression.
“My memory is a bit fuzzy. Shall we check?”
“What for?”
“A bagel?”
The hotel room they entered this way.
While Hyun-woo showered in the bathroom, Soo-ri stood by the window overlooking the Han River.
Staring blankly at the river glittering under artificial lights, she couldn’t help but admire it once again.
He had planned everything…
The room had already been reserved. Moreover, it was an enormous suite overlooking Seoul at a glance.
For Soo-ri, who had never experienced a date-like date, the sudden hotel date made her feel dazed.
“I haven’t prepared anything…”
And she had a night duty after picking and choosing, so her tired body felt like it would collapse as soon as it touched the bed.
But still, today, would spending a hot night lead to complete reconciliation?
Feeling troubled by Hyun-woo’s undisturbed heart, she felt sorry. She also felt thankful to Hyun-woo, who cared more about her than she thought.
She was a bit tired, but she had to spend a memorable night.
While thinking about this and that, the hotel doorbell suddenly rang. Soo-ri rushed to the door.
“Who is it?”
“Ma’am, I brought the bath salts you ordered.”
“Bath salts?”
When she opened the door, a butler with a brown bottle in his hand and a transparent glass bottle full of white beads was standing there.
“We’ve prepared the product you ordered. It’s a product exclusive to our hotel. Please enjoy it. Thank you.”
“…”
Accepting what was handed over, she brought it inside. Hyun-woo, who had changed into a shirt inside, came out.
Soo-ri sneaked a glance to the side. His body still didn’t seem familiar despite seeing it several times.
“Did Professor order this?”
“Yeah.”
With a puzzled look, she looked at him, questioning why he had already finished showering after ordering such a thing.
“Haven’t you checked around here yet? Over there.”
“No. While you were showering, I was looking at the Han River from that window over there, lost in thought.”
“Is that so? Good job. Come here.”
He gestured for Soo-ri to come closer. For some reason, Soo-ri felt her saliva gulp down.
As Hyun-woo, towel on his head, looked at Soo-ri, he smiled with his nose.
“You’re smiling a lot today, Professor.”
Growling, Soo-ri approached Hyun-woo. In that moment, Hyun-woo bent his knees, lowered his height, and suddenly lifted Soo-ri about knee-high.
“Whoa! What if I get hurt? Why are you doing this?”
Soo-ri pushed against his shoulders and twisted her body, urging him to put her down.
But he held Soo-ri even tighter. It seemed like a fever was rising from her body.
“I’ll put you down soon. Don’t struggle; it’s tiring.”
Now that Soo-ri had calmed down a bit, Hyun-woo, who held her like a child on his forearm, strolled around the room as if showing her the sights.
Soo-ri got to see the suite from mid-air. Is this what it feels like riding a carousel that Dad gives you a ride on? Her heart felt warm and fuzzy.
Soon, he walked into the bedroom. Then, he gently let Soo-ri down in front of the transparent door.
Standing on the cold marble floor and looking around, there was a bathroom with a large circular bathtub.
“Was there such a big bathroom here too?”
“This is the main one.”
“Ah…”
Why is the bathroom so big?
The bathroom inside the bedroom, surrounded by opaque glass, seemed to be five times the size of the bathroom in the living room.
“Professor, how much is this per day?”
Hearing the unexpected question, Hyun-woo just shrugged.
“They say this bathtub is famous. The view is great too.”
“Oh?”
Come to think of it, the view he was looking at from the living room window was clearly visible from here.
And in the bathtub already filled with water, steam was rising.
“If I had been ready in advance, I would have used this bath salt as an excuse to come in.”
“…!”
“Mission failed.”
“Oh, come on!”
Seeing Hyun-woo’s regretful expression, Soo-ri couldn’t help but laugh softly.
Today, he felt completely different from the image that usually came to mind when thinking of a professor.
His wet hair falling down to his forehead looked much more playful. Even Hyun-woo teasing her with such a face felt quite unfamiliar.
So, there was also the illusion that she was with someone else.
His well-built body, sculpted through diligent exercise, lacked realism. It felt like a person with perfect body proportions seen in anatomy studies had come to life.
That person was Seo Hyun-woo.
And that person claimed to be her lover who would always comfort her.
In his perfect appearance that seemed to pop out of a painting, he said, “If you bathe there today and come out, put this on.”
He interrupted Soo-ri, who was holding a brown bottle, and said, “And then lie down comfortably to taste Seo Hyun-woo’s touch.”
“Who are you talking about?”
“Who are you talking about? It’s you.”
“Me?”
“That’s today’s date course.”
So, as if saying, “Enough small talk, go in,” he subtly pushed Soo-ri into the bathroom.
“If you need anything, just call.”
Left alone in bewilderment, Soo-ri alternately glanced at the bathtub, then at the retreating figure of the naked Hyun-woo.
Suddenly, Hyun-woo stopped in front of the door and said, “Well, if you want to bathe together, I’m willing to consider it.”
Is he crazy? Soo-ri shook her head vigorously.
“If you hate it that much, does it make you want to do the opposite?”
“Not yet!”
“If not yet, does that mean it will happen someday? Okay, I’ll endure it today.”
Laughing as if he were a mischievous older brother, he said, “Just enough to relax without getting too tired.”
“Yes. I understand. Now go out.”
He showed a mischievous smile and disappeared from sight.
Feeling a bit sorry for taking this nice bathtub all to herself, but it was only for a moment. She felt excited, like a child who had come to play.
She dipped one foot and playfully splashed water with her toes.
She poured bath salts into the water at the perfect temperature. Dried roses swelled in the water, emitting a subtle fragrance.
It turned out to be an unexpectedly enjoyable night.
