after the meal is over.

Lee Ji-ah was lying on the sofa and fiddling with her phone.

“Huh, huh~”

He was humming and waving his feet, so when he looked up for something, he was perusing the malicious comments in the article.

“… … Are you okay?”

“sure! I can’t stand it!”

Lee Ji-ah smiled confidently. She looked at her cell phone from time to time to see if her condition was still strange.

“I’ll take a screenshot of this and look at it again later.”

In the meantime, he was pinching his fingers and taking screenshots as if he had found an impressive malicious comment.

Even though I could understand that feeling, it was very sad.

I wonder how much malicious comments people have had.

by the way.

“Mr. Jia.”

“yes?”

“Where is the bathroom here?”

Was it because a lot of things happened at once yesterday? I fell asleep and couldn’t take a bath.

“Go all the way down this way—”

Lee Ji-ah kindly explained. It’s very far and complicated. Because the house is so big and spacious, I don’t think it can be helped. After telling her to guide me, I headed to the bathroom alone.

As soon as I entered the bathroom, I took off my clothes and turned on the shower.

Cheeky!

Shoot aa shoot

Complex thoughts are organized by pouring cold water over them.

There was much work to be done in the future.

First of all, Lee Ji-ah’s hearing.

You need to figure out in advance the controversial issues that might be attacked at the hearing and prepare rebuttal materials.

As long as the breakwater called the Guild disappeared for Lee Ji-ah, all the organizations and humans that they meet in the future should be considered enemies.

Because Lee Ji-ah, who is mentally weak and timid, doesn’t seem to have anything worthy of being called a personal network.

Is it too discriminatory?

Besides, that wasn’t the only thing that happened in front of him.

What I was most concerned about was Lee Ji-ah’s depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Considering Lee Ji-ah’s reaction, she was extremely afraid of going back to the time she was now suffering from depression.

And the easy and powerful prescription for forgetting depression was me.

Maybe that’s why, it wasn’t the first time I felt like Lee Ji-ah was trying to bind me.

About this… … .

To be honest, I couldn’t find a way to fix it. The only hope is that Lee Ji-ah’s condition will improve a lot if they stay together.

“after.”

Nothing in the world is so simple.

It was time to breathe a sigh of relief

Suddenly, the sound of furniture being smashed was heard.

– Hey profit!

A woman’s sharp scream.

What do you mean?

I grabbed the handle of the shower and turned it. The water flow stopped. I went to the door and listened.

-Kyaah–!!

familiar voice.

It was definitely Lee Ji-ah’s voice.

There’s only me or Lee Ji-ah in this house, so it’s natural.

By the way, why are you screaming all of a sudden? It’s not a movie or a novel, and maybe even a cockroach isn’t making a mess, right?

Thump thump!

There was the sound of foot-painting on the floor.

I wonder what will happen to the S-class hunter… … .

It’s true that I’m worried about nothing, so I asked aloud.

“Jia? What’s going on!?”

Knock Kung Kung!!

The sound of foot prints approaching the bathroom. You can feel the vibration in your feet.

Kwajik!

The bathroom door smashed and Lee Ji-ah came in. she ran at me

“Jia!?”

Lee Ji-ah hugged me tightly, not paying attention to my wet body.

“Ugh… hey hey… … !”

Lee Ji-ah, who embraced me, trembled. I looked into my eyes, and they were shaking with no focus. He seemed to be in a state of panic.

“Ah, malicious comments… … .”

“Is it malicious?”

“I, Lord, tell me to die… … Mom, she sold her body and became an S-class whore… … .”

“What kind of dog… … No, Jia, do you know my abilities?”

Ji-ah, who was shaking, muttered blankly.

“ability… ability… … ?”

“It’s peace of mind. Why did you suddenly become concerned about malicious comments?”

“Tongue, Hyunwoo-san, after going to the bathroom for a while, suddenly… … Sis, my heart just raced.”

Lee Ji-ah explained with gibberish. As I listened to her, I realized what the situation was now.

Lee Ji-ah’s mansion was huge. More than a cafe bastard store.

Peace of mind exerted enough influence to barely wrap Café Bastard.

Even that story when I was focused.

I took a guess at the distance from the living room to the bathroom.

It was definitely farther away than Café Bastard.

I blamed myself for problems I hadn’t even thought of.

damn it It was my mistake. Why didn’t you take those aspects into account?

I couldn’t even imagine what kind of pain Lee Ji-ah must have suffered for a moment, who was watching malicious comments with a white smile.

“Jia, it’s okay now.”

He hugged Lee Ji-ah with wet hands. Her trembling shoulders slowly subsided.

“… … .”

“… … .”

1 minute passed

Gradually my legs trembled.

It’s strange, aren’t you still calm? There is no way my peace of mind can be this weak.

I gently tried to pull my arm out.

Embarrassed, Lee Ji-ah hurriedly buried her face in my arms.

“Come on, wait a minute!”

It was a voice that felt different from before.

What, are you okay?

“Jia? You’ve calmed down now, aren’t you?”

When asked worriedly, Lee Ji-ah nodded weakly in her arms.

“… … yes.”

Lee Ji-ah answered with a small whisper as if she could not hear it.

I opened my mouth with a troubled face.

“Well, then you have to come out… … .”

As I spoke, I shut my mouth. The tips of her ears, which were slightly protruding out of Lee Ji-ah’s hair, were hot.

That’s right, I was naked now.

To make matters worse, I was in the middle of a shower.

Lee Ji-ah’s pajamas hugging my body got wet and stuck to her skin.

swallowed saliva

gulp.

The neck pole moves a lot.

Did you hear swallowing?

I wish I hadn’t heard it.

““… … .””

It’s been a while since we held each other awkwardly.

Lee Ji-ah muttered with her head down.

“… … Hyunwoo.”

“yes?”

“… … No, please close your eyes.”

I shut my eyes tight.

Whoops, whoops.

As Lee Ji-ah fell from her arms, the fabric of her pajamas brushed against my skin. After a while, Lee Ji-ah said in a trembling voice.

“Hey, you can open your eyes now.”

“Are you completely gone?”

“… … yes.”

After hearing that, I opened my eyes. There was a sense of popularity at the entrance. It looked like he was sitting on the side of the smashed door when he saw his hair ruffled.

“… … Hyunwoo.”

Lee Ji-ah cried.

“I’m really, really, really sorry… … .”

I took a new towel from the shelf. I wiped the water off my body with a towel.

What do you say about this?

Rather good? This seems a bit perverted. Like Lee Ji-ah, I don’t have the confidence to face my face after saying this.

To be honest, my head still couldn’t keep up with the situation. I wonder if my silence was unsettling because I was thinking, and Lee Ji-ah continued to apologize.

“I never thought it would be like this.”

“I’m sorry, Hyunwoo-san… … .”

“I guess I got used to it during the day I was with Hyeonu, or it suddenly went back to the way it used to be, so it was very surprising and difficult for me.”

“At that time, I was seeing malicious comments… … .”

“I don’t care, can you accept my apology?”

“I will be very careful not to let this happen in the future.”

“Are you surprised while taking a shower? If it were me, I would have been really surprised. I thought it was rude.”

“I’m sorry. really sorry.”

“Next time, I will knock and wait outside. I think I just thought of myself and attacked without too much reason.”

no shit.

How long are you going to be talking about?

I got a little bit creepy, so I stick my head out the door to find Lee Ji-ah.

Lee Ji-ah was sitting on the floor, chewing her thumbs.

It wasn’t as serious as before, perhaps due to the influence of his abilities.

He sighed and drew attention.

“that… … .”

Lee Ji-ah frowned and turned her head.

“I really don’t care, so calm down. Were you surprised?”

“Yes, four… … .”

“I’ll just wear clothes and go out, so please wait for a moment.”

“yes… … .”

As I asked, Lee Ji-ah kept her mouth shut and waited until I came out. He went out, carefully avoiding the shards of wood that had fallen to the floor.

“Jia. Take a look.”

He pulled Lee Ji-ah’s sleeve, who was crouching down. Lee Ji-ah panicked and tried to shake my hand.

“bathroom… You saw me naked… .”

“… !”

Where dare you.

Lee Ji-ah’s rebellion was quickly suppressed. She cautiously extended her arm. I rolled up my sleeves and checked my wrists.

There were long lines of blood drawn.

“Did you sleep?”

Lee Ji-ah nodded her head. She rolled her eyes and avoided my gaze. He sighed and grabbed Lee Ji-ah’s sleeve and dragged him into the room.

“uh? huh?”

Lee Ji-ah was sobbing and dragged along. He sat down on the bed to calm himself down and looked through the chest of drawers.

“… How did you know that you harmed yourself?”

Lee Ji-ah asks with a trembling voice from behind.

“I’ve seen it before. There’s a cut on your wrist. Once is difficult, twice is easy.”

“Did you see it at the cafe?”

“There were many opportunities to see them at home. You rolled up your sleeves while cooking.”

I checked to see if it was possible, but it was still there. Self-harm in such a short period of time is a true ability.

“Ah, here it is.”

Finding what I was looking for, I approached Lee Ji-ah on the bed. Lee Ji-ah’s shoulders shrugged.

“Give me your wrist.”

He applied ointment to the wound that had not yet healed. Lee Ji-ah furrowed her eyebrows. It was very interesting, so I asked.

“Does an S-class hunter get sick from something like this?”

“… … It hurts the same.”

“If you’re going to get sick, why do you self-harm? … .”

“Sir, it’s noisy.”

Lee Ji-ah reacted bluntly.

squishy, crumpled.

After carefully checking that it was spread evenly, I attached the band.

OK, that’s neat.

“It’s all done.”

“Okay, then I’ll go back to my room!”

He grabbed Lee Ji-ah’s wrist, who was about to leave in a hurry. If I had to pull it out by force, it would have come out easily, but Lee Ji-ah stayed calm.

“Mr. Jia.”

“yes?”

“No matter how hard it is in the future, don’t hurt yourself. Don’t even think about suicide.”

really.

The thought of doing this every day puts a strain on my heart.

The next day, if Lee Ji-ah hangs her neck, she may bubble and collapse.

Lee Ji-ah frowned slightly.

“… … yes.”

“Promise me.”

“I promise.”

After hearing the answer, I let go of my wrist. Lee Ji-ah seemed to have something to say, and then ran outside.

Before she closed the door, she poked her head out and shouted.

in a bright voice.

“Mr. Hyunwoo! Do you know that?”

“yes?”

“I think I also need Hyunwoo!”

“That’s right, it’s natural for a talented person like me… … .”

My cheeks stiffened as I was about to respond with a smirk. Because his eyes met with Lee Ji-ah.

Lee Ji-ah’s eyes were staring at me. There was a glimmer of longing in his eyes.

That determination and desperation, not wanting to go through the same thing again, turned into a feeling close to obsession and trapped me.

As if Lee Ji-ah had promised, she whispered to herself a little.

“Yeah, I think I need it.”

squeaky.

The door is closed.

Until Lee Ji-ah enters the next room.

I couldn’t breathe and I was stiff.

* * *

smart!

“Ton, Hyeonu? Good night?”

In the middle of the night, Lee Ji-ah called me with a trembling voice.

Not even once or twice in the middle of the night.

I don’t know what this is doing.

Scratching his ruffled hair, he opened the door.

Lee Ji-ah’s face was blushing and her legs were crossed.

“Yes, Jia. What are you doing?”

Lee Ji-ah, who was rolling her feet, murmured and opened her mouth.

“I, the bathroom… … .”

It seemed so.

He nodded and closed the door and left. We went to the bathroom together.

“You can’t go anywhere.”

Lee Ji-ah went into the bathroom, pleading with God.

[No worries about birds flying in the wind.]

Lee Ji-ah played a song in the bathroom. It’s like this every time I see if I’m embarrassed to make a sound.

A week from the bathroom incident.

Now, I had to accompany Lee Ji-ah to the bathroom. Conversely, even if I wanted to go to the bathroom, I had to take Lee Ji-ah with me.

I thought that we could only use the dormitory together, but we have to move together in the house unconditionally.

Chogal or what.

– Hyunwoo, are you there?

A voice trembling with anxiety. Stop yawning and answer right away.

“yes I have it.”

-… … .

This will be quiet for a while. Then ask again.

– Hyun… … .

“there is.”

Shoot aah

I hear the sound of running water.

squeaky.

Lee Ji-ah, who came out of the bathroom, constantly coughed and looked at me.

“Ho, do you like lion idioms?”

“yes?”

What other nonsense is that?

“A force majeure is something that cannot be helped by human power such as natural disasters or natural disasters——”

I walked over to my room, dripping in the back of my ear. Lee Ji-ah was about to fall, so I followed her. I closed the door and was about to enter, but Lee Ji-ah shyly greeted me.

“… … Sorry for waking you up. Good night.”

I greeted each other and nodded my head.

Apparently a solution was needed.
