Nice to See You — Chapter 16

YOU'RE NOT A KID, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?

STOP STALLING AND HURRY UP.

I-I REALLY DON'T WANNA GO...! I CAN BUY A SWIMSUIT ONLINE ANYTIME...

AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, I NEVER EVEN SAID I'D LEARN HOW TO SWIM...!

YOU SAID YOU'D THINK ABOUT IT!

THAT WAS MY WAY OF SAYING NO...!

I ALREADY MASTERED BASIC SWIMMING ON METUBE YESTERDAY-

WHATEVER.

UGH... JAEYI, CAN WE JUST GO HAVE SEX INSTEAD?

I WANNA DO IT RIGHT NOW... I'D RATHER JUST HAVE SEX-

YOU REALLY HAVE NO SHAME IN PUBLIC, HUH...?

DON'T WORRY, I TALKED THEM INTO LETTING YOU LEARN AT YOUR OWN PACE WITHOUT ANY PRESSURE...

RASH GUARDS ARE ALLOWED TOO, SO YOUR SCAR WON'T BE A PROBLEM...

BESIDES, YOU'RE A WRITER. YOU NEED TO EXPERIENCE NEW THINGS.

THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM HERE...

LOOK AT THOSE DUCK LIPS.

HUH?

OH, THESE LOOK GOOD ON YOU.

HUH...? WHAT ARE YOU-

WHY? IT'S CUTE. KEEP THEM ON.

YOUR HAIR'S STICKING UP RIGHT HERE. DID YOU MESS UP BLOW-DRYING IT?

AAAAH!!!

IT'S A BIT HARSH TO LOOK LIKE YOU WANT TO GO HOME THE SECOND WE ARRIVE.

UGH

I-I TOLD YOU... EVEN IF I USE 100% OF MY SOCIAL BATTERY, IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR A PLACE LIKE THIS...!

IT'S FULL OF PEOPLE WHO ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM ME...

...IT'S JUST SO UNFAMILIAR AND UNCOMFORTABLE...

IT'LL BE LESS CROWDED ONCE WE GO UPSTAIRS...

...PLUS, YOU'RE NOT ALONE, SO WHY ARE YOU SO TENSE?

AH, WAIT, WHAT IF PEOPLE MISUNDERSTAND...

HEY, THAT GUY'S REALLY HANDSOME...

ISN'T HE EXACTLY YOUR TYPE? HIS BODY IS AMAZING. YOU SHOULD ASK FOR HIS INSTARGRAM...

UGH, I'VE GOT TRAUMA FROM DOING THAT BEFORE... BUT HE PROBABLY HAS A GIRLFRIEND.

HE'S TALL TOO. IS HE A MODEL?

IT'S ON THE 3RD FLOOR, SO LET'S TAKE THE ESCALATOR.

BUT HE PROBABLY HAS A GIRLFRIEND.

...MISUNDERSTAND?

ME AND JAEYI?

JAEYI IS THE ONE WHO'S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM ME...

...WHAT A RIDICULOUS THING TO WORRY ABOUT...

WELCOME!

YOU CAN FIND MEN'S SWIMWEAR OVER HERE!

IF YOU'D LIKE TO TRY ANYTHING ON, YOU CAN USE THE FITTING ROOMS ON THE RIGHT. JUST MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOUR UNDERWEAR ON!

WHO EVEN WEARS THIS KIND OF STUFF?

PICK OUT A FEW YOU LIKE AND TRY THEM ON.

O-OKAY...

YOU'RE JUST GONNA END UP PICKING EVERYTHING OUT FOR ME ANYWAY...

THOSE BAGGY TRUNKS YOU PICKED WILL CAUSE TOO MUCH DRAG, SO THEY'RE A NO-GO FOR SWIMMING LESSONS!

ANYWAY, HOW DID I EVEN END UP HERE...?

AM I REALLY GOING TO LEARN HOW TO SWIM...?

I REALLY DON'T HAVE THE CONFIDENCE FOR THIS...

HUH?

EEK!

R-RIGHT, MY WHOLE BODY RIGHT NOW...! IT'S BEEN LIKE THIS SO MUCH LATELY I COMPLETELY FORGOT...!

Jaeyi

Take a picture and show me, I'll help you pick.

P-PICTURE...?!

NO ANSWER...

WHAT'S GOING ON? HE'S NOT SENDING PICTURES OR COMING OUT...

IS HE HAVING TROUBLE...?

NGH

W-WHAT DO I DO...? I KEEP...

I JUST KEEP...

HYUNG...

KEEP QUIET SO WE DON'T GET CAUGHT.

THINKING ABOUT DIRTY THINGS...! EVERYTHING IS WAY TOO STIMULATING RIGHT NOW...!!!

CALM DOWN, IDEUM. YOU CAN'T BE DOING THIS IN PUBLIC...!

HYUNG...

WHY ARE YOU TAKING SO LONG-

ANOTHER OBLIVIOUS PERSON

AH...

YOUR WHOLE BODY IS...

WH-WHAT THE...?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? WHAT IF SOMEONE SEES-

...COVERED IN "ME."

...TRUE. YOU LOOK SO SLUTTY RIGHT NOW, IT'D BE A HUGE PROBLEM IF SOMEONE SAW YOU.

IT'S YOUR FAULT, JAEYI...

EXACTLY.

YOU WEREN'T COMING OUT, SO I FIGURED I SHOULD COME HELP IF YOU WERE HAVING DIRTY THOUGHTS. HEHE

I'M JOKING. I'LL WAIT, SO TAKE YOUR TIME...

UHH...

H-HOW... WERE YOU PLANNING TO HELP ME...?

W-WAIT- JAEYI, WHAT I MEANT WAS-

DIDN'T YOU MEAN YOU'D HELP ME WHEN WE GOT HOME? LIKE SOME FITTING ROOM ROLEPLAY...

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT...?

ALWAYS HOME, HOME, HOME- AREN'T YOU SICK OF IT?

EVEN SO, DOING IT HERE...

THIS FITTING ROOM IS FOR THE LUXURY BRAND STAFF, SO IT'S USUALLY EMPTY. A FRIEND WHO USED TO WORK HERE TOLD ME.

S-STILL... THIS IS A PUBLIC PLACE...

W-WHAT DO I DO...?

...MY HEART IS BEATING SO FAST...!!!

IT'S MY FIRST TIME TOO, SO IT FEELS CRAZY...

...BUT I GUESS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH CUMMING IN A PLACE THAT'S MEANT FOR IT.
