Chapter 152

From the start, it was a gathering with ridiculously good-looking people.

And now, everyone was changing into swimsuits, revealing their figures.

She was making a shocked expression.

“I understand how you feel.”

Suddenly, Nae-ki appeared beside her.

The two, who had already introduced themselves, somehow felt a sense of camaraderie.

At that moment, Nae-ki’s eyes landed on someone.

She spotted someone fidgeting in the corner.

As Nae-ki approached, it turned out to be Juk-sim.

She had practically been dragged here and was now holding a bikini-style swimsuit from the counter, which was causing problems.

The shoulder straps of Juk-sim’s swimsuit couldn’t stay up, barely covering her front.

“Juk-sim, need help?”

Seeing Juk-sim give up on pulling the straps, Nae-ki sat beside her and asked.

Juk-sim nodded, and Nae-ki struggled to adjust the straps.

“…It’s not working?”

Nae-ki muttered in shock.

From a distance, Si-ho watched and lowered her head slightly.

Si-ho’s black and blue one-piece swimsuit had no issues.

Si-ho, with a slightly sulky expression, quietly went outside and hugged Ha-chan.

Ha-chan was puzzled by Si-ho’s dejected look but complimented her, which made her feel better.

“What should we do?”

While Si-ho was like that, Nae-ki tried to adjust Juk-sim’s swimsuit but eventually gave up.

No matter what, Juk-sim’s chest kept asserting itself, making it impossible.

[It’s fine like this.]

Juk-sim, seemingly annoyed, casually held the straps with her hand.

“No. Juk-sim, if you go out like that, you’ll definitely get in trouble.”

Juk-sim protested, but her protests fell on deaf ears.

Even now, with just a little movement, one part was already popping out.

“Juk-sim, just borrow one of mine and wear it.”

Unable to watch anymore, Seol-hyang pulled out another swimsuit from her bag.

“Why did you bring two?”

Ayu, watching from the side, asked in disbelief. Seol-hyang then opened her chest, revealing a white cross-strapped bikini.

“I didn’t know what Ha-chan would like.”

“Don’t show off your chest. It’s burdensome.”

“Wait, don’t hit me! It’ll leave marks!”

As Ayu raised her hand, Seol-hyang quickly covered her chest and turned away, making Ayu click her tongue.

Ayu then snatched the bikini Seol-hyang was holding and froze at its size.

“What is this?”

Ayu, momentarily speechless, held up the swimsuit and checked the chest area.

This was monstrous.

As Ayu looked down at her own chest, she noticed Se-hee and Ji-eun standing nearby.

Seeing Ji-eun in a bikini with lace on the front and Se-hee in a black rashguard with swimsuit bottoms, Ayu suddenly felt at ease.

That’s normal.

“Juk-sim, try this on.”

Ayu handed it to Juk-sim, who quickly took off her bikini.

Putting on Seol-hyang’s swimsuit, her chest was finally covered.

[It’s comfortable.]

“With that size, tying it up is more comfortable.”

As Seol-hyang said, the tied straps kept her chest well-contained.

“You two stick together from now on.”

Ayu, looking at the two with a tired expression, then noticed Yoo Ah in a pink bikini.

“Gasp.”

Ayu, seemingly shocked, approached Yoo Ah, who coughed awkwardly.

“Ayu, your eyes are scary.”

“My favorite is wearing a bikini. It’s like a gravure shoot.”

“Don’t exaggerate.”

Yoo Ah smiled slightly, and Ayu quickly grabbed her phone.

“I need to take a picture!”

Her fangirl instincts kicked in, and as she stood next to Yoo Ah with her phone, Yoo Ah playfully posed with her.

Seeing the two having fun, Seol-hyang shook her head and quietly slipped away.

She wanted to go to Ha-chan before anyone else.

But she realized she was a step too late when she went outside.

Si-ho, who had already left, was pretending not to know how to swim, holding Ha-chan’s hand and splashing around.

“That fox-like girl!”

Seeing that, Seol-hyang immediately ran over and joined in, causing a splash.

The female group had all come out, and I felt at ease enjoying swimming after a long time.

Humans are originally born in amniotic fluid in their mother’s womb, so just floating in water feels comforting.

As I floated in the water, I felt something tickling my feet.

Looking up, I saw Ayu in the water.

Wearing a red flower-patterned swimsuit and shorts, she smiled at me and pulled my foot.

“Ah!”

Screaming at her unexpected strength, I fell into the water, and Ayu swam over to me.

She then grabbed my cheeks and kissed me.

A kiss underwater.

It was absurd, but I could feel her breath.

Of course, pool water also came in.

After a while, Ayu and I surfaced, and she rested her chin on my chest, smiling.

“This is romantic too, right?”

“Romantic, my foot.”

At that moment, Seol-hyang appeared beside us, looking at Ayu with disapproval.

“Aren’t you embarrassed? What are you doing underwater?”

“Not embarrassed at all. It feels great. Right, Domi Oppa?”

I coughed awkwardly and avoided Seol-hyang’s gaze.

Seol-hyang then made a horned expression and hugged my arm.

Her soft chest pressed against my arm, making me pause.

Seol-hyang, ignoring that, looked up at me.

“Do it with me too.”

In an instant, I was dragged underwater.

After being subjected to consecutive underwater kisses, I thought I’d be dragged again and walked out of the water.

“…I can’t let these two stick together.”

Their competitiveness was making things chaotic.

Thinking I needed a break, I plopped down on a chair.

“Manager, taking a break?”

Meanwhile, Si-ho appeared.

Her hair wet, she untied and retied her hair.

Her black and blue one-piece swimsuit was slightly revealing, making it hard to look away.

“Then, Si-ho, want to rest too?”

Si-ho, with a loving smile, sat beside me on the chair.

“Can I expect something?”

As she looked up and asked, I nodded.

Si-ho rested her head on my shoulder.

The artificial sun above felt slightly warm.

The smell and sound of water.

And the warmth from Si-ho’s arm felt ticklish.

“Manager.”

At that moment, Si-ho called me again.

“Si-ho, want a hug?”

Somehow, I swallowed hard.

Hearing Si-ho’s question, I quietly wrapped my arm around her shoulder, and she rested her head on my chest.

“Manager, you’re wet.”

“…Well, we were swimming.”

Si-ho then ran her fingers over the water dripping down my stomach.

I froze, and Si-ho looked up at me.

“Si-ho got wet from swimming too.”

Si-ho showed her slender arm, and the water droplets made me dizzy.

“Si-ho, are you cold? Want to go inside?”

“Where are you going?”

Then, Ayu suddenly appeared.

She clicked her tongue at Si-ho, who had left Seol-hyang behind.

“You keep trying to be alone with Domi Oppa?”

Si-ho, seeing the intruder, buried her face in my chest.

Her forehead and face touched my bare skin since I had taken off my top for the swimsuit.

“That’s really it! Domi Oppa, say something!”

Ayu looked at me, and I rolled my eyes before sighing and gesturing.

“Just come here.”

“Ugh… okay.”

Knowing she was jealous, I said that, and Ayu came over and hugged me.

What am I doing? But since both Ayu and Si-ho liked it, it should be fine.

Leaning back on the chair, feeling the artificial sunlight, I saw Josia and Seo-ho.

Josia tried to play a prank on Seo-ho but ended up being thrown into the pool.

“Si-ho, how are Seo-ho and Josia lately?”

I casually asked Si-ho, who glanced at Seo-ho.

“Just so-so. But Josia unnie talks about him a lot.”

I guess they’re doing okay.

I then looked at Nae-ki and Dohwa.

The two were talking with their feet in the water, but I couldn’t hear them.

But the atmosphere didn’t seem bad.

“Ayu, does Dohwa talk about Nae-ki?”

“Dohwa and I don’t talk much.”

This girl is still awkward.

Dohwa wasn’t even looking, and Ayu had already wrapped her arms around my neck.

Meanwhile, Hyuk-seo was pushing Juk-sim, floating on a tube, with Eva following.

Seeing Ji-eun holding Geumjjok and playing in the water, and Yoo Woo-jung wearing sunglasses on a tube, I felt at ease.

At that moment, I heard footsteps.

Looking up, I saw Seol-hyang standing there, flipping her wet hair.

Her silver hair and white bikini were stunning, even though I had seen her naked before.

She looked at Ayu and Si-ho on either side of me, clicked her tongue, and walked over, plopping down on my lap.

The soft sensation on my lap made me jump, and Ayu and Si-ho’s eyes widened.

“What! Seol-hyang, what are you doing! Move!”

“Manager, isn’t this uncomfortable?”

“Both of you, quiet. You’ve already taken both arms.”

Seol-hyang said that and rested her head on my chest.

Her silver hair seemed to envelop my whole body as she looked up at me.

“Can I stay here?”

“…Yes.”

I couldn’t tell her to leave, so I just answered.

Yeah, it’s all my responsibility.

“Idiot.”

Only Baeksan’s quiet curse felt oddly comforting.
