The sea trip brought significant progress in my relationship with Heena. Instead of heading straight ho afterward, we took a detour: I dropped her off and even went on a date nearby before parting ways. It was fun, but I was left feeling quite exhausted.
When I arrived ho, completely worn out, my entire family, including my parents, brother, and sister Yoonjung, were all eagerly waiting for .
I assud they wanted to hear stories from my trip, but they seed curious about sothing else entirely.
"Did you guys... you know?" Yoonjung asked, with a hint of mischief.
"What are you even talking about?" I retorted.
I wanted to shrug off the topic, but everyone's curious eyes were hard to ignore.
"We didn't," I said flatly.
"Co on, don't hold back on us! I understand it might be a tad embarrassing, but I'm genuinely curious!" Yoonjung teased.
"Why would I speak up when you probably won't believe the truth anyway?"
It wasn’t just Yoonjung. My parents and brother seed equally focused in this line of questioning. When they realized we genuinely hadn't done anything, the reactions were a mix of shock and disappointnt.
It was deeply frustrating. As a student, I'm practicing restraint and maintaining a wholeso relationship. How could they react like this?
Their cold stares and lack of a warm welco after my tiring journey hurt. I felt tears welling up. I quickly washed up and retreated to my room, seeking solace in my chats with Heena.
[Heena: I just finished showering! You got ho safely, right? You must be exhausted, so rest up. Love you!]
Reading her comforting ssage, which felt more intimate than before, my heart ward.
I genuinely wish I could just live with Heena.
If we end up at the sa university, could we perhaps live together?
Although these thoughts seem distant right now, I can't help but daydream about a future where that might beco reality.

A few days have passed since I returned from my trip.
During this ti, I fully enjoyed my break, resting comfortably at ho and consistently spending ti with Heena.
eting and simply hanging out was fun, but after the trip, I found a renewed desire to study. I even brought up the idea of incorporating so study ti into our dates, but Heena only agreed after half the vacation was over.
So far, my days consist of either playing gas with friends over voice chat or hanging out with Heena.
Today, however, was a day to et my friends in person.
"Have fun. Even though I'll be alone, you should enjoy yourself."
"......"
Ever since the trip, her possessiveness has beco more pronounced. It's nice to feel wanted, but sotis it can be a bit much.
"Heena, didn't you et your friends yesterday?"
"Yeah, but it was after our date! Don't sweat it."
This feels tricky.
While I prefer her being laid-back over her fretting over every detail, I wasn't quite sure how to respond.
I felt the pressure, my fingertips trembling.
I had nothing to say. I couldn't just cancel my plans.
What to do?
"Heena."
"Yes?"
"I love you."
She chuckled, clearly surprised by my sudden declaration, but she didn't seem to mind.
Okay, that went well.
"So, you're leaving your loving girlfriend to hang out?"
"Looks like it!"
I was at a loss for words, feeling both overwheld and amused.
It was only when I felt lightheaded that Heena's laughter reached over the phone.
"I'm just teasing. Have fun today!"
"Phew... It seed you were 90% serious, but okay."
"Only 90%?"
"You said it was a joke, right?"
She giggled, "Alright, I'll stop now. Text later!"
"Sure, I'll text whenever I can."
"Promise?"
"Promise."
The call ended.
Despite the lighthearted nature of our conversation, I was sure she was mostly serious. I was so overwheld that I even changed my sweat-soaked clothes.

I t my friends in person for the first ti in almost ten days.
We'd been playing gas together, except when I was with Heena.
When I saw them after such a long ti, they sat around in a corner of the PC café, staring at as if they were about to pounce.
At ho, while we were deep in our gas, there wasn't much talk, although they did curse out when I'd send a picture on the chat and then go silent.
I thought they'd just gloss over my travel stories since we were mainly focused on the ga, but it seed they were eagerly waiting to see in person.
The atmosphere wasn't as tense as it had been that day in the classroom, but their faces seed hungry for so kind of story.
Curious about their expectant looks, Kim Suhwang, known as the 'Big Guy', finally spoke.
"...Hey."
"What?"
"Did you... during the trip..."
"What happened during the trip?"
Then, as he hesitated, the guys around him seed to urge him on with their eyes, making the atmosphere feel charged.
"...Did you do it?"
"Are you insane?!"
Was this really what they were so eager to know?
"Damn you all! Is that the only thing you're curious about?!"
"Of course! It's the most important thing, you dumbass!"
"Look at him getting mad! He did it!"
"Damn, really? I’m so jealous."
I shouted in disbelief, and insults flew from every corner.
Honestly, I wouldn't feel this wronged if I had done sothing.
"I didn't do it, you assholes!"
"Stop lying. Look at him bluffing."
"Looking at the pictures you sent, there's no way you didn't."
"While we were stuck at ho, you went and saw the real thing, huh?"
Idiots envying for sothing I hadn't even done.
Do I really need to convince these lunatics?
As I raked my hands down my face in exasperation, Jung Yoonsung, who had been silently watching the absurd situation, said with a shaky voice.
"Guys, calm down... I think Han Yeonho really didn't do it. If he had, he would be showing off in his annoying way..."
I appreciate that my friend of five years can see through .
But their response to Yoonsung's words wasn't relief, but disbelief. Just like my sister Yoonjung had reacted.
"You two went together and... didn't do it?"
"You said it was a trip sponsored by your parents?"
"Plus, from what I heard, your girlfriend seems pretty assertive..."
"You went and did nothing?"
They looked at incredulously. It was quite irritating, reminding of how my family had reacted ten days ago.
"Yeonho..."
After a brief silence, Suhwang, who first brought up the topic, said in a somber tone.
"Could you possibly be impotent...?"
"That's it! I'm going to kill you, you bastard!"
Furious at the insult, I charged at him. Sotis n need to fight, even when they know it's not right!
However, this guy, with his brute strength, effortlessly pins down both my arms, chuckling in amusent.
"We believed in you...!"
"Since that's the case, I'm suddenly in the mood for a ga?"
"Totally up for a ga tonight."
"Hey, what's with all the talking? Let's ga!"
"You...bastards..."
Anger surged within . In my boiling rage, a few would occasionally pat my back, trying to console .
After teasing a young spirited guy like , they all retreated to their places with monk-like smiles.
I desperately suppressed the urge to lash out at the ga and everything else.
Phew, let’s calm down. If I had gone that far and not done anything, I'd probably have had the sa reaction.
I didn't specify that we only got one room, but the fact that my girlfriend and I spent the night at the beach and didn't do anything... hmm.
Thinking about it again, even I found it strange.
"......"
Was I really too cowardly?
Honestly, Heena was way more proactive than these guys could imagine. Maybe I took her for granted... No, that's not it.
Considering how much trust both our parents placed in us, I wanted our relationship to progress more seriously.
I don't know if it was the right choice, but it was the best I could think of.
Plus, we did share an intense kiss.
Clearing my mind, I turned my gaze to the monitor. The guy sitting next to , Suhwang, continued to strike up a conversation.
"How was Sokcho?"
"It was great. The timing was impeccable when we went. It wasn’t too crowded."
"Didn’t your girlfriend treat you to a lot the last ti? Did she buy everything this ti too?"
"Well... actually, my mom booked our accommodation. So, Heena's father gave us his card to cover our als. That mostly took care of things."
"Looks like your parents handled everything. You hardly spent any money, did you?"
"If you exclude transportation, yeah, hardly spent anything."
Co to think of it, I should visit and thank them. Maybe after Heena's brother completes his military service. It might be a bit awkward, though.
While answering and maneuvering the mouse, this guy doesn’t seem to stop talking.
"How does it feel traveling with just your girlfriend?"
The question felt a bit pitiful. I mostly discussed detailed stories about Heena with Yoonsung, so he might be curious.
Wanting to focus on the ga and end the conversation, I replied with a mix of seriousness and jest.
"It's always fresh and thrilling."
"Should I break your fingers starting from the joints?"
"Seriously though, you wouldn't know unless you’ve been in that situation, right?"
"That's a bold statent, Han Yeonho."
"Damn it, not my fingers! Sorry! I said I'm sorry!"
With all my strength, I managed to fend off the guy who seed genuinely intent on breaking my fingers. It appeared he took my half-joking words with utter seriousness.
Ugh, those who are forever single can be so narrow-minded.
Author's Note:
The subtitle may change at any mont...
Both Yeonho and Heena have remained single throughout, before and after their regression.
My novel doesn't drift from its the! It's purely about romance! All about being affectionate!
Kidnap-romance punch! Confinent-romance punch! Assistant-romance punch! Yippee!
