EMP Chapter 10
by mimi‘I said I’m not going.’
“……Why?”
Park Juyeon seemed genuinely puzzled, furrowing his brow slightly.

“My place is much bigger and nicer than here.”
‘I feel uncomfortable because you’re there. That’s the biggest problem.’

“I can take care of you there.”
Clearly, Park Juyeon hadn’t understood what Kwon Jiwook had just said. He had muttered it quickly under his breath. Kwon Jiwook sighed deeply. He didn’t want help from anyone, let alone Park Juyeon.

“Why do I make you uncomfortable?”
There were too many reasons to count. Kwon Jiwook lowered his head and, hidden under the blanket, counted the reasons on his fingers one by one.

First, Park Juyeon is crazy, so you never know when he might change. In fact, I’m not even sure if his apology is sincere.
Second, I have the strength to live on my own. It pisses me off that Park Juyeon treats me like a patient.

Third, unexplained kindness comes with a price.
Fourth, Park Juyeon’s face is intimidating. He’s too striking, and looking at him makes me uneasy.

Fifth, everything in his house is high-end and intimidating to use.

Park Juyeon, curious about what Kwon Jiwook was doing, leaned in to peek. Kwon Jiwook was still lost in thought. Park Juyeon thought that if he kept trying to take Kwon Jiwook with him, he might have to write these reasons down on a memo and hand it to him.
‘Anyway, I’m not going.’

“You’re coming? I knew it.”
‘What? Hey……!’
Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish
Hey, you bastard! Kwon Jiwook tried to shout but ended up choking and coughing violently. He grabbed Park Juyeon’s arm, bent over, and coughed as if he were about to spit blood. Park Juyeon silently patted Kwon Jiwook’s back lightly. After the coughing finally subsided, Kwon Jiwook’s face was flushed red from the exertion.
‘Ha……. I’m dying here.’
Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish
Looking down at Kwon Jiwook, Park Juyeon seemed to realize something and let out a small “Ah.” He wondered if Kwon Jiwook was still clinging to his shattered pride. He was the kind of person who would stubbornly hold onto his pride if it was broken. That pride was his driving force in life.
That’s why he was refusing Park Juyeon’s goodwill. Park Juyeon nodded lightly. His hand, which had been rubbing Kwon Jiwook’s back, moved up to ruffle his hair. Kwon Jiwook was a straightforward person when it came to being stubborn. Park Juyeon had forgotten that.

“Just to be clear, I’m not pitying you. I’m just sorry about what happened and want to apologize sincerely.”

…Fuck, this crazy asshole. Kwon Jiwook covered his face with both hands and rubbed it vigorously. The redness that had finally started to fade flared up again from the friction.
Kwon Jiwook wasn’t swayed by emotions. In fact, he was more cold-hearted. No matter what others thought or felt, whether they sought pity or not, Kwon Jiwook prioritized his own desires. People don’t change easily, and Kwon Jiwook was no different in this situation. Yet, his heart was wavering…

Kwon Jiwook exaggeratedly moved his lips to form each syllable. Park Juyeon, understanding, nodded with his usual innocent expression. His dark eyes sparkled.
Yes, his heart was wavering because useless memories kept resurfacing. The occasional silly, smiling face, the hand that shielded him from the sunlight, the crumbs on his lips as he ate bread, the sudden kiss on his forehead… All useless actions and memories.

“I won’t do anything you don’t want. I promise.”
Besides those memories, every other memory of Park Juyeon was vile and dirty. Park Juyeon had both the innocence of a child and the coldness of a tyrant, but the Park Juyeon that dominated Kwon Jiwook’s mind was the latter. Still, Kwon Jiwook couldn’t distinguish which was the real Park Juyeon.

His heart was not following his reason. In truth, he could clearly distinguish which aspect was closer to Park Juyeon’s essence, but he simply didn’t want to believe it. Kwon Jiwook, who prioritized his own desires, realized at this moment what he truly wanted.
He wanted the childlike image of Park Juyeon in his mind to grow stronger.

Kwon Jiwook tapped Park Juyeon’s arm. Park Juyeon opened his eyes wide, as if asking, “What’s the matter?”
‘How can I trust you?’

Park Juyeon hesitated, surprised by the unexpected question. He waited for Kwon Jiwook to continue, his expression frozen in ambiguity, blinking his long eyelashes.

Judging from his words, it didn’t seem like he would stop asking just for today. When Kwon Jiwook showed a slightly annoyed expression, Park Juyeon smiled faintly and got up from the bed.
“I’ll keep coming until you feel better. It would be even better if you could give me a clear answer before then.”

Park Juyeon left after saying just that, disappearing in an instant. He had come suddenly and left just as suddenly. What he left behind was his scent, which lingered around for a while. The room, which had felt bitter, now felt better with his scent mixed in.
Kwon Jiwook mocked himself. This isn’t Stockholm syndrome or anything. He sighed, feeling like he was being drawn into Park Juyeon’s shameless actions. Kwon Jiwook, feeling tired despite having slept well, decided to sleep a little more. Sleep was the best solution for any complicated matter.

If he had known that persuading someone would be this exhausting, he wouldn’t have started in the first place. …… Park Juyeon regretted belatedly. He leaned back in the car seat, pressing his stiff bangs down.
It wasn’t that there were no results. At the earliest, tomorrow, or the day after at the latest. By then, he was confident he could bring Kwon Jiwook to his house. Kwon Jiwook’s eyes said so. They begged for kindness. Please stop tormenting and show some kindness. The eyes that were once full of resentment had changed, and it made him smile.

Separately, there was another problem. Kim Suhyeok.
He had shown the photo to Kim Suhyeok as well. He had an obvious interest in Kwon Jiwook, so Park Juyeon thought he would be the first to take advantage of Kwon Jiwook. However, not everyone is as bold as Park Juyeon.

Kim Suhyeok had been quiet. Seeing Kwon Jiwook’s photo and his reaction of gaping had felt like a dream, Kim Suhyeok had been so quiet.
He was originally a very cautious and timid person. Now, under Kwon Jiwook’s influence, he had become someone full of bravado, but he was still the kind of person who would avoid eye contact and lower his head like a frightened herbivore if he caught Park Juyeon’s eye in the lecture hall.

Why did he keep feeling like Kim Suhyeok was gnawing at his nerves?
After using the photo as an excuse to meet face-to-face, Park Juyeon and Kim Suhyeok had no particular memory of having a conversation. However, he felt like he would run into him soon. Park Juyeon could only hope that the encounter wouldn’t snap his nerves.

The day Park Juyeon met Kim Suhyeok again was not long after that. What was somewhat unexpected was that Kim Suhyeok had initiated contact first. What wind had blown? Park Juyeon smiled faintly and crossed his arms.
Kim Suhyeok hadn’t changed much from about a month ago. He was still a timid coward pretending to be brave. Kim Suhyeok silently gulped down his coffee. Eventually, Park Juyeon, tired of waiting, spoke first.

“This is a bit unexpected. Why did you want to see me?”
The Kim Suhyeok who used to be entranced just by looking at his face was gone. Kim Suhyeok visibly shrank back and looked up at Park Juyeon.

Park Juyeon managed to swallow the words, “Who are you to go crazy?” and took a sip of his coffee.
After moaning for a while, Kim Suhyeok lifted his blurred face to look at Park Juyeon. Kim Suhyeok’s teary eyes looked like they would burst into tears at the slightest touch. Of course, he wouldn’t actually cry, but his expression was that fragile. Kim Suhyeok finally answered after biting his lower lip hard and then releasing it.

Is he mentally stable? His position looked a bit strange when he was being fucked, did his back break? Did his teeth fall out? What if his internal organs ruptured, or worse, what if he died? Kim Suhyeok asked all sorts of questions as if a dam had burst inside him. Park Juyeon frowned at Kim Suhyeok’s excessive and maddening concern for his friend.
“Sunbae, I don’t really understand what you’re trying to say.”
Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator
“So… basically, I’m curious about what Kwon Jiwook is doing now. I thought you might know.”
Kim Suhyeok, struggling to find his words, confessed with a sigh. Park Juyeon looked at him intently, puzzled. If Kim Suhyeok was curious about Kwon Jiwook’s well-being, he could just ask him directly. Park Juyeon couldn’t understand why Kim Suhyeok was trying to find out through him.

Besides, Kim Suhyeok was the kind of person who would refer to Kwon Jiwook as “that bastard” in front of others, belittling him. Park Juyeon had realized that this was Kim Suhyeok’s way of expressing affection by harassing the object of his affection, but it was still strange to see him openly taking Kwon Jiwook’s side in front of others for the first time.
“But Sunbae, didn’t you not like Jiwook Sunbae very much?”

Even when Park Juyeon glanced at Kim Suhyeok, he didn’t seem to care. It was as if he had no attention to spare for Park Juyeon, and he couldn’t calm down easily. He looked like someone being chased by something. He bit his nails and then continued, stammering.
“That’s not the point. You saw the video that day too. I never imagined they would do something like that.”

“I always felt uncomfortable around them, but after seeing that video, I just can’t face Kwon Jiwook. I want to ask how he’s doing, but I’m afraid something might have gone wrong.

Kim Suhyeok tapped his chest, groaning in pain. Park Juyeon briefly stared into space, recalling Kwon Jiwook, whom he had seen just yesterday. ……Well, Kwon Jiwook wasn’t as much of a mess as Kim Suhyeok imagined. Although he was in terrible shape on the day he was gang-raped, his excellent basic physical condition allowed him to recover quickly. It seemed that Kim Suhyeok’s condition was more serious than Kwon Jiwook’s.
“Juyeon, is Jiwook okay? Shouldn’t he report it?”

Kim Suhyeok wiped the sweat from his hands on his knees. Even after that, he kept clenching and unclenching his fists. Kim Suhyeok’s words brushed lightly through Park Juyeon’s mind. After thinking about what Kim Suhyeok said, Park Juyeon narrowed his eyes and smiled.
“But why are you telling me all this……. What does it mean? Are you trying to say it’s all my fault?”

“No!”
Kim Suhyeok’s breathing had become rough at some point. Park Juyeon waited silently for Kim Suhyeok’s next words, his eyes sunken. He must have been smirking without realizing it. Kim Suhyeok suddenly looked upset and quickly poured out his words.

Kim Suhyeok stared at Park Juyeon with a wavering gaze. Ah, no. Park Juyeon did not miss the slight movement of his lips. Park Juyeon’s face relaxed. He finally understood why Kim Suhyeok had called him out. Kim Suhyeok wanted to blame him while also trying to rationalize his own actions.
“Sunbae, do you just want to blame me, or are you trying to shift your own guilt onto me for not taking any action after seeing the photo? From my perspective, it seems like the latter.”

It had been two weeks since that day when Kwon Jiwook went through the ordeal. Park Juyeon had been visiting Kwon Jiwook’s place regularly. Contrary to Park Juyeon’s expectation that Kwon Jiwook would quickly return to normal, Kwon Jiwook had been staying at his place for quite some time. He wasn’t being cautious or angry at Park Juyeon, but for some reason, he insisted on staying there. Park Juyeon decided to go along with it for now. The priority was to get closer to Kwon Jiwook.
Kwon Jiwook looked up from his phone and glanced at Park Juyeon, then scoffed. His handsome face relaxed into a smile, but somehow the expression ‘rotten’ seemed more fitting. Perhaps it was because his eyes resembled those of a dead fish, Park Juyeon thought.

It felt somewhat awkward, yet not quite. An inexplicable sense of unease made Kwon Jiwook rub his furrowed brow with one hand. But there was no reason for Park Juyeon to lie to him. In Kwon Jiwook’s mind, lying was a defense mechanism of the weak.
