Jang Beom jerked bf5c597bba his chin towards cf6cf2f26e the passenger seat c7999f40e0 of the SUV 88453024ea and continued speaking 374107b841 to Yiwon.9b50f5ace504671f

As Yiwon 79bf12a2b2 approached, Jang 0deb05f488 Beom opened 90bc0a1cc9 the passenger 6f0eba8545 door for d8570676e2 him. Trembling slightly from 495ac1b98d the somewhat irritable 8723f15034 atmosphere, he climbed cd9d86fb9c into the passenger 7486024843 seat, and a 15f16c0b9b low growl from 96f83bfba5 above his head 7f97fc3ca2 finished the sentence.783931d2da83c52d

“I’m with the kid right now, so hang up. Text me.”ca65625448590349

The passenger ed195fdfc5 door slammed efc8101d6e shut. Yiwon suddenly 764cf30b05 felt trapped 1bfaee5f27 inside the c7a1e10589 car.09f2e3e14d3d708a

Come to think of it, Jang Beom wasn’t someone he should dare consider cute. He’d completely forgotten how scared he’d been of Jang Beom when they first met, all because he’d felt that way for a fleeting moment.a3a21865358b4143

Regardless, Jang Beom was the president of a private loan company. He didn’t know how Jang Beom ran his business, but the work couldn’t possibly be entirely legal. At least, hitting someone with a tray or burning their face with charcoal, like Yiwon had witnessed at the barbecue restaurant, was definitely illegal.4b4e7ef32211892a

As Jang Beom got into the driver’s seat, Yiwon felt the large frame of the car sink. He cautiously asked Jang Beom, who was entering the cinema address into his phone’s navigation, “Who was the person who got stabbed?”fd2b7226ab38b06b

Jang Beom slowly 96e2e29164 turned his head 1d2514f895 towards Yiwon and b6240c49de answered with his 3716466138 usual indifferent expression, 8f260c474f “You really want 9d907bd4b5 me to answer bd21bae1e3 that?”fc2d67130fccd750

The question was 316e77a978 purely for confirmation, d50dd17387 with no hint f026db300a of an attempt ca40586baf to scare him. Yiwon swallowed the 6c0f7047fd question he’d worked 65d9895b68 up the courage aefe49d02e to ask.37763fd9effa3149

Just as Yiwon thought he’d be too nervous to sleep, he fell asleep.89531c43e56d69e2

And he slept deeply. When he slowly opened his eyes, he felt as though he’d woken up from sleeping at home.55ccff52ec2b26e8

Yiwon blinked slowly, then saw the car’s door handle in front of him and sat up with a gasp. He finally realized that he’d fallen asleep during the short drive to the cinema.fcd5deef1ce6caa8

He looked around instinctively. His seatbelt was undone, ab0e331b2b and the passenger seat 0328c65db0 was reclined all the f3b742b448 way back like a 202c617193 bed. He could see the dd851dc96f rooftop parking lot of 2387176f50 the cinema building outside 6e9bce1a2d the window.451eba878ab0a1da

Suddenly, a feeling that he hadn’t just taken a short nap washed over him. Yiwon clutched his jacket pocket and muttered, “The movie.”4446053cdd0e2854

He hurriedly 8448cb8a47 checked his ce2114af4d phone; the 8670ee14df movie was 155631e0b9 almost over.fead49425f2ff887

Yiwon looked back at the driver’s seat with a dumbfounded expression. He saw Jang Beom staring straight ahead, arms crossed in a stiff posture.753694c01c724715

Just as he was about to ask why he hadn’t been woken up, Jang Beom cocked an eyebrow and said, “You snore.”61e6763dcccec403

It meant he hadn’t woken him because he was sleeping so soundly. Yiwon was now familiar enough with Jang Beom’s way of speaking to understand this much. Still, embarrassed, he grumbled, “I don’t snore.”f9e286373242cb90

While he f9c2312189 was worried 81175d0c3b about whether 1736ca8b19 it had d716af7fc7 been unsightly, 31e2bf13d4 Jang Beom f85b752f8d leaned back 2ad6f5f7c0 deeply into 8a20f77ac3 his seat f30e0ab68e and sighed.f27835e8c0d27a85

Yiwon asked without 4a74fe0bd8 thinking and immediately a5e517c346 regretted it. This was f564ca79b7 because Jang abea10e995 Beom’s pants 001acba51e were bulging 93f63b9e7c prominently above 90ba10a376 his fly a2fbbe4514 as he 4c37315547 sat stiffly, 56ef62aa8c calmly catching fcce11b8f4 his breath.959102555e08b215

Yiwon gasped and 506b25fc2d quickly turned his 8adac2aa13 head away from 00f6fa809a Jang Beom. He was so flustered 04f0dfd4d4 that all he could 6266276584 think about was getting 35cd2c2cbd out of the car, 8babe9f469 so he grabbed the c180f50eda door handle.f860a7752459da2b

As he fumbled with the door handle, whining because he didn’t realize the door was locked, Jang Beom said calmly, “It’s not going to go down if you’re fidgeting like that next to me.”ae296136273a3d9c

Yiwon immediately froze, clenching his fists on his lap. He didn’t understand why Jang Beom got more aroused when he fidgeted, but since he said so, even breathing felt burdensome.20bb074bbd7c1c85

Jang Beom rested his elbow on the window, creating a tent over his thick eyebrows. The sound of Jang Beom’s deep breaths echoed in the silent car, reaching Yiwon’s senses. With a flushed face, Yiwon glanced at the distinct outline of Jang Beom’s lower body visible through his clothes.b6e6ef90673f083f

It felt like he’d chosen the restaurant because it served dishes any child would love. Since it was actually one of his favorite foods, Yiwon followed him in without complaint.601b429db1a5e62e

Instead of asking Yiwon what he wanted to eat, Jang Beom ordered a variety of dishes. Once the ordered food filled the table, Jang Beom cut up the pork cutlet in front of him, switched plates with Yiwon, and said, “I’ll take you home after you finish eating.”f3143cee616e8b9f

Yiwon’s eyebrows drooped involuntarily.672826f8a80adcb7

It was entirely his fault that he’d missed the movie he’d carefully reserved after searching for reviews, so there was nothing he could do about it. Still, he felt disappointed to go home just like this. He wanted to play games, browse the mall, and have coffee since he’d made the effort to come out.

He didn’t know what a man in his mid-thirties would typically enjoy. Yiwon rested his elbow on the window and propped his chin in his hand, pondering what kind of entertainment Jang Beom might like.
