The slightly tart aroma that tickled my nostrils, the moonlit voice that would sometimes sound like a hallucination, the face that appeared in my dreams, just barely visible, that excited me.

For weeks, it had made me act like a madman due to a nagging feeling. Upon confirming its existence, I could only chuckle bitterly.

Somehow, that morning when I ran into her at the hotel, I thought it was strange that Se Kyung was giving me a medicinal herb tea.

It must have been because she had seen me drunk.

Eat and sober up a bit.

But what to do with these disgusting things?

Tae Jo pondered how things had gotten so complicated.

Even if Moon Seok Ju had only revealed that he had gone into the room with Se Kyung that day.

When I asked her if she saw me at the hotel in the dawn, if only Se Kyung had honestly said yes.

Then, wouldn’t he have needed to check the hotel CCTV?

“……”
Tae Jo’s hand clenched tightly.

The damned bear and the innocent sheep… no, the cunning cat wearing a sheep’s disguise had conspired together to deceive me.

That’s what turned me into this obsessively crazy man.

“Are you going to eat black bean noodles for worship? The noodles are getting soggy. Eat it quickly.”
Woo Hyun, who was chewing radish pickles, picked up the remote control.

He had been whining that he wanted to eat black bean noodles for lunch since the morning, so he ordered food delivery at the office.

Tae Jo, who picked up his chopsticks late, loosened the tangled noodles and put them in his mouth.

That’s when it happened. Tae Jo’s ear responded to the story flowing from the TV.

[I honestly felt like I made a mistake due to the alcohol. I was very drunk, but she was also swaying.

But I didn’t hate her, on the contrary, I even had a slight crush on her. That’s why I couldn’t shake off her arm around mine.

That night, we spent a hot night together.

But the problem was what happened next. When I woke up in the morning, she was gone, and I had to face her again the next day.

However, she pretended not to know about the previous night. She said she didn’t remember anything because she was drunk……]

Who adapted my story?

Tae Jo, who was glaring at the screen, frowned.

It was a relationship counseling program. The panels discussed their thoughts based on the stories sent by the applicants.

Looking sideways, Woo Hyun, who was holding a bowl of black bean noodles, was staring at the TV, slurping his noodles.

“What do you think about that?”
“What?”
Tae Jo pointed at the TV with his chin. Woo Hyun, who was dipping onions into black bean sauce, answered in a bored voice.

“Probably his technique was not good.”
“……”
Should I stuff the remaining onions in his mouth?

I felt unfairly annoyed, even though it wasn’t my story. Tae Jo threw his gaze at the TV again while picking at his noodles with his chopsticks.

The panels were sharing their thoughts.

[ Saying she doesn’t remember is a lie. The sleeping together could have been a mistake. That’s why she’s pretending not to know. If the woman had feelings for him, wouldn’t she have stayed by his side until he woke up?

“The film could have really broken. But she must have roughly figured out the situation when she woke up in the morning……, could it be that she is pretending not to know because she wants to make it like nothing happened?”

“So, what do you think is the reason she’s pretending not to know?”

“Well, I wouldn’t know unless I were the one involved. She may have been interested but found it not so great when it happened, she may have done it really under the influence of alcohol, or……. she may want to cover it up because she has a boyfriend?”

“Wow, the last one is the worst…….]

“Look, that person is also doing it. She tried it and it wasn’t good.”
Proudly asserting that I was right, Woo Hyun shrugged his shoulders. Tae Jo fell into thought with a serious face.

So……, why did Yoon Se Kyung do that?

Se Kyung, who woke up from her sleep, slowly blinked her eyes. The inside of the car was quiet and enveloped in moderate darkness.

As if trying not to disturb someone’s deep sleep.

“…….”
How long had she been asleep?

She felt like the car had been driving on the road, but it was not moving. As soon as she turned her head and looked out of the window, she saw cars parked along the line.

“Did you wake up, sister?”
Jehun, who had been leaning on the steering wheel watching a video, heard a rustling sound and turned around. Se Kyung moved her sore body around and then nodded her head.

“Yeah. When did we arrive? You should have woken me up.”
“I was going to do that, but it seemed like you weren’t feeling well since earlier. I was planning to wake you up after letting you sleep for 10 more minutes.”
“You must be tired from driving for a long time. You’re getting off work late because of me.”
“No, it’s okay. We arrived less than 30 minutes ago.”
“Did you cover me with this?”
Se Kyung held up the blanket that had been covering her body.
