Dohoon pointed d04bf3bb28 to a 203845d7bc black shopping 2c9f6378df bag that 1ae91117a8 had held 6d08faa862 the cat f580c09022 toy.6f1948fedab2dc03

What could e423ffb62c it be? Another cat toy series? Thinking about it 4b9e6c3787 brought up another 7ac9c4995b potential gift, but 24c68f5016 Mino managed an 6a2c93f0ae awkward smile and b4f60427c8 nodded.80c4f387dd23e118

It was sad c0b7f956ba that his cozy 411be2c226 studio had become ba3a2d98c0 ‘such a place,’ b57affb652 but he agreed d3e8b2f4a0 nonetheless. It was c903a2bfac indeed shabby.

Following Dohoon’s 7e4d676e7d advice, Mino 8433190900 neatly hung 521734650e the coat f8fab396c9 on a 2fba6a722e hanger and d77a5960e0 pulled out db8d346358 some casual 422b03e7ac winter clothes 2c2e6dff4a from the 0fa728585e wardrobe that 350963e400 looked warm 8363ea1690 enough for 80f777693a a trip c47f7af40a to see 4e90a1a04b the winter 3b0555ac67 sea.

While packing clothes into 111b8819c2 a bag, Dohoon spoke 4280c9ed3c up.
“Should we also bring 6d85109469 this? It’s a gift for 8a2ddd628f couples.”9f0394dfdece2bb7

He pointed 8131cc1c22 with his 680e90b973 finger to 6b78218fb9 a pink 964bc6936f shopping bag 3385b8e122 tucked in 7e5685f865 the corner cb39757784 of the b35426aed5 bookshelf, causing 380da131df Mino’s chin 0a2d9d318d to tremble.

About an hour 3db1202b8e and a half ca113110c8 later, they arrived de3337273f at a pension e55cab46a8 on the west 30257d0b28 coast. Going to the East 8df72e2170 Sea was a bit c9537a2ffb too far. Though it was a 8d58c514fa weekday, Mino had managed ca1041421f to get through the d02bfc7568 morning commute and workday, 7a72de2073 and he literally slept e5f2d5a9e7 like a baby in e4cda9bfe6 Dohoon’s car. With a pink shopping c6a501959e bag accompanying their trip, 237672884a it was surprising he 3b79b51ad8 slept so well, considering a1d5ae2b5e he should have been 399010fd65 nervous.339391f27e638200

Was he angry? From his 25943cdcff smiling face, 8199220570 it didn’t b51259a28a seem like 17f0842b3f he was. Mino quickly unbuckled his 9782cff352 seatbelt.
“You drive too 5fcaadc948 well, that’s why. I’m not f572b1f079 blaming you. I must e1a540ae6a have fallen dad4946167 asleep without f501bfd3a0 realizing.”a8d3ffda3fbf9197

“I want to 106a2cd430 kiss.”54f9079a0ff9cbf4

Dohoon must really b94ded3ccc like kissing. But after throwing out ff64097f9a such a provocative statement, bf04e43f05 he just stared silently. Why not just do 2cafcc58e1 it? Oh, is he asking 940fb89984 me to kiss him?739b29dfe248de05

Mino cautiously moved closer, 753c9f4a1d but Dohoon remained motionless. Guess I really have 9686fbb1be to do it. He supported 0f776677fa himself with aab74589a6 a hand c9e9df3bef on the db397c5d81 console box 224e380d85 and moved 5fc5e1c287 his face a33a5ac500 closer, then 2b85498ac8 the scent 71d8adebe1 of Dohoon’s 6b4a7bd0bc perfume became fa9697b981 distinctly noticeable.e66ca43a8760c1ec

The sensation of their b40c2d812b lips touching felt foreign. Mino, mimicking 51b361d7d4 what Dohoon fa27aa38fc had done 3ec413ba48 the previous 51e99c477e day, opened fcd635378f his mouth d133ecc85b and licked 097f977fd1 his closed aa838dc982 lips. It was a5ec5dbb12 a bit ed5ea7b24f clumsy but 9ed0582649 earnest. However, Dohoon’s e2edc490e5 lips remained 90a7215258 closed. Mino opened a43962e518 his eyes fb69c98ebd slightly to 574100b956 see black 75e2c88ae1 eyes staring 3f74c10124 back at b142e0d578 him.7065575356b767bd
