When Yoo In felt the affectionate warmth in the voice calling him, the small sprout in his heart wriggled vigorously in response.
Now, whenever he heard Kiyeon calling him, Yoo In would immediately smile. And Kiyeon really liked that side of Yoo In.
No, he liked it but also disliked it at the same time.
“Don’t go somewhere and smile like that.”
“Why?”
Was he too cheerful? Did he smile disgustingly? When he turned his head quickly due to the suddenly developed cool feeling, a soothing voice came over.
“I don’t like it when someone else sees it. What if everyone falls for Nam Yoo In? What should I do?”
As if glaring with sharp thorns in the eyes, the rounded pupils stared at Kiyeon, conveying embarrassment.
“……Aren’t you saying that too naturally? Who would fall for me.”
“It’s not natural; it’s based on the truth. Don’t you still know? Should I grab a passerby and ask.”
“Yes, yes? Why would you ask them!”
“That’s why you just have to believe everything I say, Nam Yoo In. Don’t doubt it.”
Under the streetlamp in the apartment complex, half-shaded cool eyes laughed leisurely, emitting a gentle light.
The time spent walking on the promenade, unable to let go of the joined hands and chatting, was an essential course on the way back after meeting Kiyeon.
While walking, joking around, and talking about various things, it felt like time stood still, flowing only for the two of them.
Everything around the two seemed to freeze in place, but the world’s time passed cruelly, making the night darker and deeper.
In the seemingly smooth flow between Yoo In and Kiyeon, there was a troublesome figure, namely…
“Why are you coming back so late?”
As soon as they arrived home, after finishing expressing regret, there was Yoo In, who silently guarded the shoe rack, and his twin-like sister, Nam Yoo Jin, who looked surprised.
“Why are you standing there? You scared me so much!”
“Why would I? You did it to scare me.”
Yoo Jin grumbled and stepped back. Yoo In, who was surprised, glared at his sister, who looked exactly like him, and crossed the living room.
“What’s going on all of a sudden?”
“I got bored with the food, so I came to get Mom’s meal~.”
“You ignore all the calls because you’re busy, and only look for Mom’s food when you need it?”
“Yeah. Do you know how much hanwoo I bought today? I was so busy buying that. I don’t even know what my sister’s deep intentions are.”
Passing by the proud-faced Yoo Jin, when I entered the living room, the sofa emitting only the sound of an ongoing drama seemed desolate.
“Where are Mom and Dad?”
Then, comfortably sitting down, chewing on an apple that was clearly cut by Mom, Yoo Jin answered.
“I gave them tickets to watch a movie. Mom really likes it, right? Take good care of her while you’re with her. Don’t go out alone.”
“Ah. That’s good…….”
Putting down the bag and sitting next to Yoo Jin, Yoo In, who was sticking his butt to the side of Yoo Jin, suddenly felt a spark of ominous feeling growing inside him.
Once again, today, without fail, he came back after taking a walk with Kiyeon under the moonlight. Perhaps… she saw it. No, she didn’t, right? If she saw it, she would just quietly stay there, right?
No. It’s too early to be relieved because my sister, who is like a time bomb that could explode at any moment, has this kind of personality. Yoo In felt a bit resentful of himself for completely forgetting about his sister and falling for Kiyeon all this time.
Sneaking a glance at Yoo Jin, who was uninterestedly watching TV, he asked casually.
“How did you know I was coming?”
“I heard you entering the password.”
“…Was it you, Unnie? You heard the sound and ran out.”
“I found it fun.”
Although he pretended to lightly tease his sister, who was chewing on the apple with a completely unamused face, he wiped away the complicated thoughts that had accumulated in his mind for a while.
Even though he did nothing wrong, why does he feel like he’s being pricked by thorns? He might need to discuss with Kiyeon about how to approach his sister’s conscience. As soon as possible.
Yoo In sighed deeply while pretending to watch the drama.
Closing the door and leaning against it, Yoo In exhaled deeply, feeling the tension that had built up. What is this, not even a secret romance.
It made him feel sorry to hide the fact that he likes someone. Still, the reason he couldn’t reveal it immediately was that the scars from the reactions he had seen from Ji Han, who found out earlier, were too deep. Also, he anticipated his sister’s reaction and got scared.
Mr. Lee is not a bad person. He’s a really great person.
“…How charmingly he smiles.”
Without realizing, Yoo In blurted out his sincere feelings. Lately, he felt strangely itchy to brag about that person. His lips would tingle now and then for some reason.
Seeing the changed appearance inside him that he didn’t even know was there, he admired and scolded himself alternately every day. Yet, the emotions that had already boiled over couldn’t stop and occasionally burst out.
Who hasn’t said that love is a disease? Truly ridiculous, but I felt like I’ve caught that disease too. So, are these symptoms in the early stage or severe?
Anyway, it ended up being the same result – even though he laughed and rejected it, he shamelessly attached that emotion’s name to him.
“…….”.
Ji Han, who was the only one to actively oppose Yoo In’s relationship, made a fuss, drinking and making a scene, but these days, she’s quiet again.
No. It’s not quiet; it’s more like going AWOL. They occasionally contact each other, but it’s been quite a while since they saw each other. When Yoo In asked Ji Han if this was a protest, Ji Han strongly replied to leave that guy alone, saying that it’s none of his business.
“…But I’m still worried.”
It keeps bothering his mind. It’s the first time that she has acted like this, and no matter how much he thinks about it, the uncomfortable feeling that settled in his heart doesn’t go away.
Sighing deeply, a warm breeze escaped from Yoo In’s mouth again. Although they spent a long time together as three, stealing a close friend seemed to have lasted too long.
At that moment, a vibration rang out from the bag. Only then did Yoo In, who stood in the dark room without turning on the light, discover me and reached out to turn on the lights.
Tap.
Something caught Yoo In’s extended foot. There should be nothing on the floor.
“…What is this?”
As he tapped the stand’s power, the orange light spread, and what Yoo In’s foot had caught was revealed.
Rows of shopping bags were displayed like a train. No, Yoo In had just touched it, and it had fallen like dominoes.
Among the bags with the brand names engraved by type, clothes protruded awkwardly, as if saying hello to Yoo In.
“Ah.”
It was too obvious who did this.
His sister, really.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
