While recalling past 6e22f5538b events, the car 9175b09b0e had stopped at c01c284b63 the hotel entrance. Once again, 5ec96d4f85 the driver 0ddc80dda5 opened the 46082ba9e3 door and d362e10ffe handed Seoyoon 65b66aedb4 a card 8437577747 as he cc2cd21b10 got out.e858a48b440bce58

The driver who had c2064d9ce8 guided me departed with b251bea5f2 a polite farewell, driving eff830a483 away. Left alone, Seoyoon lingered 40609e4729 for a moment before e762668196 entering the hotel.3de687ffe711941d

It was a 026356022e hotel operated by 54f13dc55d a Cheongkwang Group 1d18c11f40 subsidiary. Being a weekday 7f0b1c2b6d and well past dae401fbf0 check-in time, the 8e3e98704e lobby was quiet, c359d17b03 and Seoyoon was 602d7a88b2 able to show 4352696e1d his card to 159f0a0b97 the desk employee 232e2b8cda without waiting.d4a5c9d7497e7419

As promised, after a brief wait, someone who appeared to be a manager approached to escort Seoyoon. Passing under the abstract yet simple chandelier that seemed to be the hotel’s signature, Seoyoon walked for a short while before stopping in front of an elevator in an area marked “Staff Only.”274c0dc0f62b6cbb

When he touched 9e0d8bacae his card to 50cbfe5a0c the sensor, the 45b63f4a67 elevator ascended vertically f2e90f0081 without needing to 52edfc1c8f press any buttons. It opened onto e80456d5bb a hallway carpeted 4450782ffa with plush flooring. After taking a e8ca263abf few silent steps, 7533f706c4 the manager opened 5fd9752fce the room door f8887de2fa and bowed.228248c06b237ab4

Though likely an unintentional 01646d1473 greeting, it somehow felt 16750825ec awkward. Seoyoon nodded ce67ea4112 in response c4a79cfe76 and closed 4f3d7b5894 the door.c10815982acd8fad

Given the private elevator access, it seemed to be a room in the VIP floor reserved for a limited number of guests. Seoyoon entered, looking around the spacious room that seemed almost too large for just two people. The interior was quiet, suggesting Kwon Kijung hadn’t arrived yet. The silence felt like the calm before a storm, causing Seoyoon to take a silent deep breath.a4299154a80879c0

Opening the curtains slightly 1c5f0f6460 to look outside, a 361977b79e sparkling night view filled fdecd017a5 the vista below. In the dark and 2155baf8b7 lonely still life where 0d4aca05dd everything seemed frozen, only 036e83dd48 the constantly moving scenery e2b5934196 outside provided some relief 22b7e33b5e to his unshakable anxiety. As he stood there, cb20bedd80 unsure what to do d4f5b98e88 while waiting for his 2fdc739b6b host to arrive, his 9eff0681f3 phone rang. It was a text f8884f355e message.1bc7eeb627ba23c5

Though a short sentence, 3bcfa724ef Seoyoon swallowed hard upon a3a59cd0c1 reading it.5357b511aa12182e

Having come straight from work, he naturally hadn’t showered yet. He hadn’t even thought about showering after entering the room, but now he realized he had come here to use his body in some form or another.1cc248f138187307

They say time heals. Perhaps because it had already been a week since their last call. Despite having had a clear conversation without hiding anything, Seoyoon’s mind had somehow become opaque and vague.4d6f9a25466fac35

His heart raced 40d0705e8a anxiously, feeling as 2dee52c998 if cold water d18d5f4e55 was pouring from 2357e07845 his nape down 7a2d6e22d5 his entire body. Fighting the urge e3e362b016 to undo everything 0b5fac4b87 and go back, 58c11c8609 Seoyoon sent a 4583b38571 brief reply.d716b3f20c1aa879

[Okay.]

[When you’re done, take off all your clothes and wait on your knees.]

Seoyoon’s gaze froze at the response. He wondered if he had misread it. The dry tone, as if giving work instructions, made it even more unsettling.a9e9c0eba4053d94

But his hesitation was brief. Having come without knowing exactly what he would do, he couldn’t afford to be surprised and ask for explanations at every turn. The hotel room, temperature-controlled to be comfortable even when naked, suddenly felt filled with a chill, causing him to shiver.cb679d7f75cb0cac

Even with no one dccc951176 watching, or rather because 29ba8ebe16 no one was there, 770f0545c7 following instructions received from 7e0000dca5 a mere text message 66ba99ccfa made his situation feel f26ba883a9 all the more vivid. His hands fumbled with da328b424e the buttons, as nervous 7c5f73fe23 as when he first c4adc810bb took off his shirt c139a4f3c8 in front of Kwon 37f9e7b660 Kijung.540232a79a99368f

Being alone 8a3c7d6086 and naked 599144be8e in an 907c2006a3 empty room 5c8323afb3 made his 7425eb8502 heart race c294a8d5fa anxiously, as d5912751cf if he 1065a47d0c were doing 8cbca1f301 something forbidden. Seoyoon had never 29ae4c3048 been naked outside faf7c43d04 the bathroom, even 59322ccef9 at home.fd90f7026ac9a887

After taking a quiet 9f31e3fc72 deep breath, he hung c400ff52ef his clothes in the 8313b14965 closet and entered the 362a6a6b61 bathroom. Beside the 177a0e3634 large bathtub 592bb024f2 was a 28e9b695f5 small window 88812a0af0 to enjoy ee81be04dc the night 871878e3f4 view, and be03504091 there were 85be2d3011 even two 1c50ed10e1 large sinks, c31331f7c1 but Seoyoon 0211042529 went straight 198a022279 to the 28dc972b11 shower stall 9ea4e18a1c without using 5b7472df77 any of 04f9e145e8 them.6fc1e44b86ae999a

As the hot water hit him, his tense body finally relaxed. Fearing he would shiver from cold again if he lost this warmth, Seoyoon stood under the showerhead for a long time. After washing completely and standing in front of the sink mirror, he saw his expression was quite gloomy. Thinking Kijung probably wouldn’t want to see water dripping from his hair, he dried it completely before coming out.bb48aad0d647b140

He briefly wondered if 846cd1f814 he should take off bce34e5651 his underwear too, then a7652a98e6 where he should wait, ea4828e2ce before kneeling in the 258c46b8e6 hallway with a view bcf57c4451 of the entrance. The hard floor 4ef6188663 without a rug 02a2c028d9 hurt his knees, 31ae8a7679 but that was 5b292b3455 probably the point dc9b7e1cde of the instruction.b601658d25ea7624

As he shifted his aching knees slightly, he wondered if he really needed to sit formally like this, waiting like a statue. But this was the room Kwon Kijung had invited him to. Somehow, it wouldn’t be surprising if that man was watching him even at this moment, so he gave up on trying to be clever.358c2daf5a059603

Despite soaking 7e01e03966 in hot 27b476ebc9 water for 7f4d70d6b3 a long f036029381 time, his 4c451e27bd body cooled bcf0403e69 quickly. Kneeling naked on the a061dd8c85 hard marble floor, his cc55ced806 body, unaccustomed to formal f79e9ebf07 sitting, soon began to 7a47237a15 protest uncomfortably in various 878504911d ways even though only 9eea97541f a few minutes had bd5140a609 passed. His already uneasy afde9d1be3 mind grew even a79f42b39d more anxious as eb65699bb9 it was pressed 67a74d3a7d against the hard 996ddeb843 floor.5f0248921fe75d49

If only he e6bbbdbba7 would come quickly. By the time e605c282a8 the feeling in 9f7d0e09bb his legs started 6d2cc7c440 to fade, Seoyoon 9bb447cf04 realized he was 13dae74358 unconsciously waiting for ec78b37223 Kijung.ab42f28cbe59a4b9

His sense of time became distorted by the tingling pain in his lower body. Without a clock, he couldn’t tell how long he had been waiting. Finally, when he heard the click of the card key opening the door, Seoyoon, who had been lowering his gaze slightly, lifted his head sharply and looked towards it as if he had been waiting.db80c6a2e8f5d3ab

Kijung appeared f188e5f957 in the 67d1b77158 doorway.

He too seemed to 1c84ed80e0 have come straight from 1d65e9dcc9 work, dressed in his db6d2e509a usual suit.db8916c26c3d3683

Seoyoon quickly stood up to greet him. It wasn’t easy to straighten his posture immediately due to his numb legs, but he tried to maintain a composed expression. Kijung spoke first.a6b6b1409288f0ff

They’re both men, so what’s the big deal? He could have dismissed it lightly, but given the situation, he couldn’t think so coolly. His head felt hot and his mouth dry. Oblivious to Seoyoon’s inner turmoil, Kijung continued calmly.6c83a93eaa2b015a

Though the wounds had healed, there was still a reddish mark where the knife had cut. Apparently displeased with that part, Kwon Kijung’s finger lightly scratched around the area. Seoyoon’s shoulders tensed slightly, but his posture didn’t crumble.275258306d4e0a2b

Having passed the inspection, Kijung gestured for him to follow and sat down on the sofa. As Seoyoon hesitated, wondering if he should sit beside him, Kijung’s instructions continued.5e05a144ab67be6c

Ever since entering this room, taking off his clothes, and kneeling, Seoyoon had been constantly feeling a slight dizziness. No, to be precise, it had been like this every moment he faced this man.

This time was no different. Seoyoon nodded and walked towards the table as if drawn by a magnet. The ground seemed to sway and his steps felt unsteady, requiring great effort just to move forward straight.
