When I quit my job, my co-workers became obsessed with me

“… … .”

Midsummer did not return any reply. He was just staring at the sea that stretched out endlessly.

However, the shadow that had cast deep on his face seemed to have disappeared now.

“You don’t have to answer me right away, so think about it.”

If you give a plausible line at this time and get out of it, you’ll feel better.

“You said you weren’t going to catch shit?”

That was the moment when I walked out of the terrace, ignoring the laughter coming from behind.

“oh.”

Suddenly, I felt a soft touch on my chest, and when I checked it, there was Yu Ga-ryun waving her hands and stepping backwards.

“Hey, I didn’t mean to steal from the beginning. Just by chance… … .”

“I just opened the door without thinking, but I thought I could hear a human voice from here… … .”

While speaking, Yu Ga-ryun’s blue eyes frantically moved to and fro.

“I really am.”

Feeling a little nostalgic, I spoke to Yu Ga-ryun.

“I haven’t said anything yet. Or what does anyone say to you?”

“Aren’t you mad?”

“why me.”

“Hey, I overheard you having an important conversation with him… … .”

Yu Ga-ryun’s shoulders were drooping like a wet dog’s tail.

“Nothing. I didn’t even talk weird with him.”

If I was going to tell a secret story, I wouldn’t have done it in such an open place.

“lie… … .”

“what.”

“Why do you keep pretending not to be angry? I’m only doing things that are very annoying.”

There was a hint of anxiety in Yu Ga-ryun’s voice, which was flowing softly and tickling her ears.

“Do you want me to be angry?”

no words come back His face was similar to the one he saw in the tent last night, but he had less poison than he did then.

“okay.”

I gathered as much power as I could with my index finger and blew the chestnuts on Yu Ga-ryun’s forehead. At the same time as the clicking sound, the boy screamed and wrapped his hand over his forehead. Tears were welling up in the corners of his eyes.

“Are you okay?”

“… … It didn’t work. None.”

I shed the boy’s dissatisfied eyes to one side. I can’t check because I don’t have a mirror, but the corners of my mouth are probably twisted.

“Okay, so change your clothes first. Why are you still wearing it?”

The dress Yu Ga-ryun was wearing was covered with muddy water and blood from the model of the escape room set, making it impossible to look at it.

“It’s not like I’m wearing it either.”

“Then why are you wearing it?”

“I have no clothes to change into. The suitcase I brought was a tent… … I flew away with you.”

The boy’s gaze turned to the bandage wrapped around his left forearm.

“Because it’s okay. It doesn’t sting anymore.”

“Who says what?”

I put another chestnut on Yu Ga-ryun’s forehead.

“Ouch!”

“Follow. I will lend you my clothes.”

Yu Ga-ryun’s shoulders trembled and shook.

“Sir, I don’t like it. Why am I like your clothes?”

“It’s okay, so hurry up. If you have done this, please pay attention to it.”

I frowned and grabbed my nose with my index finger.

“yes?”

Perhaps that single word was so embarrassing that Ga-ryun Yu was sweating profusely, putting her nose to the hem of the robe she was wearing, sniffing it and starting to smell it.

Of course it’s a lie.

“Come on, take it.”

I took out a sweater set from my suitcase and threw it to Yu Ga-ryun.

“It might be a little big for you, but it’s small and it’s better than not going in at all. I’m wearing it in a hurry.”

“… … .”

The guy didn’t answer, he just blushed and held the sweatshirt blankly.

“I know you don’t like me, but put it on first. Because in that dress, I have a worse tail.”

“Sir, it’s noisy.”

“I’m just kidding. Anyway, change clothes and come down. I will eat.”

* * *

“Hey, more, uhm, give it a go.”

“uh. I still have a lot left, so please stop taking mine.”

At mealtime, in front of the dinner table, Midsummer was back as a young boy who was obsessed with what I knew. Was the appearance I showed you on the terrace a while ago really an illusion?

Still, that expression suits this guy’s face more.

“Baby, are you? If there’s anything missing, tell me.”

“… … .”

On the other hand, Yu Ga-ryun was eating rice while chewing chopsticks, the exact opposite of midsummer.

“Isn’t it to your taste?”

“Oh, no. That’s not it.”

“Or is there something you want to eat separately?”

“No, his clothes vibrated with that smell, so… … .”

I can’t help it. Because Ga-ryun was a child who hated my smell.

“okay? Then, even now, I’ll wear other clothes—”

“All right, all right. Because it’s small and it’s better than being cramped. I will wear it until the dress is dry.”

Guess she was quite annoyed, Yu Ga-ryun’s face was so red that it couldn’t be compared with before.

Am I smelling that bad? It’s a word I’ve heard all the time, but today I feel particularly sick.

“Hey, do I smell?”

I asked Han Yeoreum a question for an objective review.

“Oh, my dog. So put it away It’s because it’s a ton.”

I started eating all the side dishes that Midsummer was eating.

Shortly thereafter, he realized the seriousness of the situation, and cried and cried and hung around, repeatedly saying that he had done something wrong, but he ignored them all.

“Then I’ll come to wash up, so I’ll clean up and do the dishes, but please.”

“yes. Oh, wait.”

After dinner, midsummer called me to leave the restaurant.

“Do you know where the water is? Because I am thirsty.”

“Oh sorry. I forgot to bring water. There’s a big refrigerator in the kitchen, right? it’s down there There are drinks other than water, so take your own and drink it.”

I just left the kitchen, grabbed a change of clothes and headed to the bathroom. The huge communal bath, which I had been looking forward to entering since I saw it during the day, was heightening the excitement in my heart.

It’s a pity that I couldn’t take a full bath because of the scar on my arm, but there’s nothing I can do about it.

“Whew… … .”

The hot water will pleasantly wash away the fatigue stuck to the body. It felt like the spider web that filled my head a while ago had flowed down in an instant.

Savoring that refreshing feeling, I spent a happy time in the bath for a long time… … .

… … I thought it was, but such happiness was short-lived.

Now I was sitting on the floor, grabbing my pounding heart and breathing heavily.

“What, what?”

The reason is because of one person who opened the bathroom door and came out with a face towards me as soon as I came out.

Surprised by the sudden situation, I just lost my focus and fell backwards.

“Are you pitiful?”

Ga-ryun Yu stood still in front of the door and watched me without saying a word.

“Hey, are you here to wash? Sorry, I wrote too long. You can go in now.”

“No.”

“Ahh. right. I need to clean up.”

Come to think of it, he said that the place I went in or sat in smelled and didn’t even look at me until the cleaning was finished. I forgot.

“yes? What kind of cleaning is it all of a sudden?”

“No, but if you want to write.”

“So you said no. And I don’t take baths anymore. I won’t do it for the rest of my life.”

The guy rubbed his face with his sweatshirt sleeve and continued talking.

“But it’s a shame. If you take a bath or something, it won’t all fly away.”

“No, then why are you here?”

“I want to smell it.”

Am I finally getting there?

“Sorry, I think I heard it wrong.”

“I came here because I wanted to smell it. Are you deaf?”

Suddenly, Yu Ga-ryun rushed at me, who had been sitting blankly with my eyes closed at the bomb-like word.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

“Stay still.”

After crawling on all fours and putting her nose on my thigh, Ga-ryun Yu took a deep breath, moving her nose slowly to her stomach, chest, shoulders, and nape.

“Sup… flaw… whoops… … .”

It felt as if my whole body was being licked.

“Man, why are you suddenly like this? hey.”

“Ugh… It’s copper. It’s dirty, it smells… … that’s real brother Your brother is here.”

Yu Ga-ryun, who had been muttering such unfamiliar words, immediately buried her face in my chest and started groaning.

“It’s my brother. brother Huh. It really smells like my brother.”

“Sorry, what the hell is it all of a sudden… … for a moment.”

At that moment, a pungent smell spread through my nose.

“Girun-nim, have you been drinking?”

“I really hate it. I hate my brother the most in the world. Huh. Because, it smells so stinky.”

The rules for drinking at our museum are simple and clear. Don’t let alcohol enter Yu Ga-ryeon’s mouth.

The reason is simple.

Because the moment Ga-ryun enters alcohol, everything ends.

Yes, disasters that are beyond human control will happen.

“Huh… heh heh… brother… … .”
