“Just wait. Don’t say anything, Siyun Kim.”
“It’s unfair if I can’t touch or talk.”
Mijoo tried desperately to stop Siyun, sensing his mischievous intent.
“But not now.”
“Not now?”
Mijoo felt increasingly cornered, her words seemingly giving Siyun more leeway.
“Then, this should be okay.”
Siyun unbuttoned one of his shirt buttons.
Thud.
Mijoo’s heart sank. She wasn’t sure when to exhale the breath she’d held. Why was her body reacting like this?
“No… Why are you undressing!”
Her voice trembled. Maybe it was better to stay quiet in such situations.
“Don’t touch, don’t speak, and now I can’t even control my body?”
As if to defy Mijoo’s control, Siyun unbuttoned another button.
Thud.
Mijoo’s heart raced. The slow, teasing unbuttoning made it impossible for her to look away.
“Should I turn on the air conditioning if it’s hot?”
Siyun’s gaze was fixed on Mijoo, his hand moving to the next button.
Just one more button, and his sternum would be fully exposed. His chest muscles and finely sculpted abs were already becoming visible.
Thud.
After unbuttoning another, Siyun casually removed his shirt, revealing his broad chest and well-defined arm muscles.
‘I guess I do like this.’
A hot sigh escaped Mijoo’s lips.
Thud.
The shirt fell to the floor from Siyun’s hand. Then he, with a flick of his hair, stepped out onto the terrace.
‘What was that, the hair flip just now?’
Even a small gesture like that sent ripples through Mijoo’s heart.
Siyun dived into the pool on the terrace.
Splash.
A large wave followed his dive. But then, Siyun was nowhere to be seen.
Mijoo, who had seen him dive in, grew anxious as he didn’t resurface.
“Siyun… Siyun Kim!”
Hesitant to approach, she stood in the living room and called out softly. The pool surface remained calm, only glittering in the sunlight.
Taking a step towards the terrace, Mijoo called out louder.
“Siyun Kim!”
Fearing the worst, Mijoo ran towards the pool.
She saw Siyun’s body being swept along the bottom of the pool.
“Stop joking!”
But Siyun didn’t surface. In a panic, Mijoo looked around for lifesaving equipment but couldn’t see any. Hesitant to jump in, she spotted a long pool skimmer and desperately reached into the water with it.
“Kim Siyun.”
Suddenly, Siyun burst out of the water.
“Phew.”
Seeing Mijoo with tears streaming down her face and trembling, Siyun quickly climbed out of the pool and approached her. As he neared, Mijoo, now sure it was him, screamed.
“Hey! Kim Siyun.”
She then burst into tears.
“Why? What’s wrong?”
Baffled, Siyun raised his hands in a questioning gesture. Mijoo quickly wrapped her arms around his waist. Caught off guard, Siyun embraced and comforted her.
Mijoo, who had been crying, lifted her head and placed her hand on Siyun’s cheek, touching and turning it side to side. Then, she hit his chest with the palm of her hand.
Smack.
It didn’t hurt, but Siyun wondered why he had to be hit. He placed his hand on the spot near his heart where he was hit and looked at Mijoo.
“Why? Were you scared thinking I had drowned?”
“I thought you were dead.”
“Who? Me or you?”
“Either. I was scared.”
All Siyun had intended was a brief tease followed by cooling off in the water. He had just gone for a deep swim, as usual, but…
“I jumped in the water and… you didn’t come up. Sob.”
Mijoo’s tears had stopped, but her voice was still choked with sobs. She suddenly hugged Siyun again.
She buried her cheek in his chest and wrapped her arms around his back, as if not wanting to let go for even a moment.
Mijoo swallowed the words she wanted to say, fearing she might cry again.
‘Don’t suddenly leave. Don’t disappear without a sound.’
Siyun also wrapped his arms around her back and hugged her.
His chest, seemingly hard, was softer than Mijoo thought, and his back was broader than she had imagined.
And Siyun’s body, fresh out of the water, was surprisingly warm.
Mijoo tried to detach her hands and body from Siyun slightly. However, Siyun tightened his embrace.
“Mijoo must have been really scared.”
“…….”
“I was scared too.”
“I’m sorry. I misjudged the situation.”
Siyun hugged her tighter, making Mijoo’s chest tighten and her breath catch.
“I told you not to apologize.”
“Ah.”
“I prefer hearing words of gratitude from Mijoo.”
“Thank you.”
“I’m more grateful.”
“…….”
“For coming to me first.”
Mijoo tensed at the moment, and Siyun felt it. He looked down at her.
“Why? It was you who did it first.”
“It was a mistake.”
Mijoo tried to wriggle out of Siyun’s embrace, and he hugged her tightly one more time before letting her go.
“Next time you pounce, I won’t let you go.”
“Who would pounce?”
Although she protested, she couldn’t deny her actions.
“And you called me ‘hey’ earlier.”
“…….”
“I’ll find a way to get back at you.”
“Get back, for what?”
Mijoo’s heart fluttered at his words of using any means necessary.
“Go inside first. I need to cool down a bit more.”
Siyun looked at her with eyes that seemed ready to engulf Mijoo, prompting her to quickly retreat to the living room.
