“Your elbow keeps going back.”
Someone caught Si Hyun’s shoulder and gently pushed her back.

“Keep your chest out and don’t arch your back too much.”
At the familiar voice, Si Hyun was so surprised that she dropped the grip.

When she turned around, as expected, Tae Ha was standing behind her.

“……!”
Why are you here? While Si Hyun was staring in surprise, Tae Ha leisurely moved in front of her and reduced the weight setting by half.

“You should start from this much.”
She had only seen him wearing shirts, but his bulging muscles were prominent in sportswear. The arm, the chest she saw earlier.

Then……!

Only then did Si Hyun realize that the man everyone had been staring at was Tae Ha. She felt a hot flush spread over her body and when she looked around, everyone’s gaze was focused on them.

Especially, Ye In, with whom she had been talking, was staring with wideeyed disbelief, and Si Hyun muttered inwardly.

I’m screwed.

Regardless, Tae Ha spoke to Si Hyun.

“Now, try again.”
He might not care, being used to receiving attention his whole life, he might not find it strange to exercise under all these stares.

But Si Hyun, who had never experienced it, found it unbearable. It felt like all her muscles were tensing up, making it impossible to exercise.

“Just go do your own exercise. I can manage mine without your interference.”
“I have to not interfere unless you’re doing really bad.”
“What?”
To Si Hyun’s glare, Tae Ha grabbed the grip, pulling it towards her, forcing her to hold it.

“Now, start.”

((()))

In the end, Si Hyun was guided by Tae Ha, moving from one machine to another for almost an hour.

He adjusted her posture meticulously, it was clear that she wasn’t someone who had been exercising for a day or two. There was a reason why he had such a good physique.

Thankfully, Ye In seemed to have left earlier and was nowhere to be seen. After showering, her arms and legs were shaking.

‘I will definitely have muscle pain tomorrow.’
With that thought, Si Hyun staggered out of the fitness club. As soon as she came out of the building, Tae Ha who had been waiting, approached.

“Let’s go.”
[I’m not going to marry, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be with you.] He seemed to have already forgotten about the conversation they had last night.

“Your elbow keeps going back.”
Someone had grabbed Si Hyun’s shoulder and gently pushed her in the middle of her back.

“Keep your chest out and don’t arch your back too much.”
Si Hyun was startled by the familiar voice and lost her grip.

As she turned around, as expected, Tae Ha was standing behind her.

“…!”
Why are you here? While Si Hyun looked at him in surprise, Tae Ha leisurely walked in front of Si Hyun and removed half of the weight that was initially set.

“You should start with this much.”
She hadn’t noticed before as he usually wore shirts, but now that he was in sportswear, his bulging muscles stood out. The same biceps and chest she had seen earlier.

Then…!

Only then did Si Hyun realize that the man everyone had been staring at from earlier was Tae Ha. Feeling a sudden heat throughout her body, she noticed that everyone’s gaze was focused on them.

Especially, Ye In, whom she had talked to earlier, was staring at her with wide eyes. Si Hyun muttered to herself.

I’m doomed.

Regardless, Tae Ha said to Si Hyun.

“Let’s try again.”
Who knows, since Tae Ha had always been the center of attention his entire life, maybe he didn’t mind exercising under everyone’s scrutiny.

But Si Hyun, who had never experienced this before, found it unbearable. Instead of working out, she felt as though all her muscles were hardening.

“Just go and do your workout. I can manage mine, so don’t interfere.”
“You’re so bad I can’t help but interfere.”
“What?”
To the glaring Si Hyun, Tae Ha forcibly made her grip.

“Let’s start.”

((()))

In the end, Si Hyun had spent nearly an hour moving from one machine to another, receiving guidance from Tae Ha.

He was so meticulous about her form, it showed that she hadn’t just started exercising for a day or two. It all made sense now why she felt so good.

Fortunately, Ye In had already gone home, so she was not there. She felt all her limbs shaking after taking a shower.

‘I’ll definitely have muscle pain tomorrow.’
With that thought, Si Hyun left the fitness club, staggering. As soon as she stepped outside the building, Tae Ha, who had been waiting, approached her.

“Let’s go.”
[I’m not going to get married, but that doesn’t mean I’ll go to you.] It was as if he had completely forgotten what Si Hyun had said the previous night.

“What’s that brother’s name? How old is he? What’s his job?”
“Yoon Tae Ha. Twentysix. Developer.”
As she answered unconsciously, Si Hyun was puzzled. Why am I telling her this?

“Oh, younger than I thought. I was a bit worried about the age difference. Then does he have a girlfriend?”
“…He doesn’t.”
“Hooray!”
Ye In jumped for joy. Watching her long, flowing hair and slim figure, Si Hyun thought.
