Episode 2
Was it online, or Only Two? BL this and that, seme this and uke that. A hallucination or fantasy filled with incomprehensible words.
“Yu Baek-hwa?”
I flinched, my shoulders trembling as I slowly rolled my eyes.
“Should I just leave now? Hm?”
“…”
“Should I jump out the window right now?”
His sarcastic tone, completely devoid of sincerity, recklessly stimulated my desire to flee without looking back. Barely suppressing that urge, I faced Seo Jung-hoo and quietly lowered my palm.
‘First, let me quickly sort out the situation and escape.’
And I need to find out what that hallucination really was, what kind of mysterious thing is happening to my body.
“…Seo Jung-hoo.”
Pressing down my rough breathing inside, I slowly moved my lips.
“Stop clinging to me so disgustingly, leave me alone and fuck off.”
…Wow, shit.
‘This is fucking awful…’
I desperately chewed my lower lip to swallow the curse words mixed with a terrible sigh.
I learned to curse when I was still in elementary school.
Back then, I wanted to be able to protect myself entirely with my own strength, and I thought I needed to appear strong to do that. In short, I wanted to have an image that didn’t seem easy to mess with.
But as a child, I had no special charisma or natural intimidating aura. Due to personal family circumstances, it was difficult to learn proper sports or martial arts.
So what I chose was ‘cursing.’
I carefully listened to the speech patterns and word choices of some peers who were particularly foul-mouthed, then went home and practiced alone repeatedly. I still remember my brother sometimes sticking his head in, asking what I was muttering about as he passed by my room.
Thanks to that, or because of it, cursing became a habit that kept slipping out at the end of my sentences, even when I consciously tried to restrain myself.
But since I learned it at a young age from peers of that age, there were clear limits to the curses I could utter. Most were things like fuck, bullshit, fuck off, damn it, etc… They were direct but not particularly high-level.
However, sometimes such profanity sounded more unpleasant than other criticisms or insults.
Logical criticism can be understood, and harsh verbal abuse is so absurd it’s almost funny. But if you just spit out something like ‘stop the bullshit and fuck off,’ isn’t that just pointless quarreling without any substance?
So this must be a situation that’s already fucked beyond repair.
“Yu Baek-hwa. Just because I’m listening quietly doesn’t mean you should go overboard…”
I cut off Seo Jung-hoo, who was saying whatever he wanted while smiling, and butted in.
“Stop clinging to me so disgustingly, leave me alone and fuck off.”
That’s definitely not how I intended to speak. Deep down I was thinking something like ‘just cut it out and fuck off!’ but I swear I had no intention of saying that out loud. Moreover, this ‘fuck off’ also contained the intention of ‘if you don’t like me, I’ll fuck off myself!’ so I couldn’t help but protest the injustice of so much being omitted from what came out.
“…Wow.”
A meaningless exclamation fell over my head. But I could be certain that voice was completely dry, without a trace of laughter unlike before.
My mind was screaming to stop, but once my mouth started running, it wouldn’t stop. Now even my hands wouldn’t follow my will, so I had no choice but to helplessly abandon my rude lips.
“Fuck, what fucking bullshit. How dare you carelessly put someone’s name in that filthy mouth of yours. Without permission.”
I was trying to say please hurry and leave in the time it took to blankly call my name two or three times.
“Ah, why! It was a mistake! What did I do wrong that you’re grabbing me!”
I wanted to say that the earlier incident was just an accident due to my carelessness, so let’s call it quits and go our separate ways.
“If bumping into me feels like being shoved into a shit pit, you shouldn’t have been standing there in the first place! You were the one who grabbed and supported me first, you bastard!”
Even if I was too awkward to say thank you for helping me, I never had even the slightest intention of blaming you instead!
“Aaaaah!”
That last scream was 100% pure sincerity. I immediately spread both hands and buried my face in my sweaty, damp skin. My chapped lips continued muttering without any sign of stopping.
“I wanna die. I wanna disappear.”
No, I want to kill everything…
‘I’m not a bastard. You guys who made me like this are the bastards.’
It was ambiguous to specify exactly who that ‘you guys’ referred to, but anyway, it’s not my fault!
I slyly rolled my eyes through the gap between my spread fingers. Then my gaze inevitably met with Seo Jung-hoo’s, who was looking at me with narrowed eyes as if gauging something.
“…”
I was pouting my lips under my palms when I suddenly turned around.
‘Ah, I don’t know anymore!’
The relationship between Seo Jung-hoo and me had already reached an irreversible catastrophe. Of course, it was like that before too, but today’s incident meant that hostile feeling had intensified even more.
Then there seemed to be no need to make an effort again. Since we’re ruined anyway, even if I try to lead this in a somewhat good direction…
Actually, setting aside all those logical reasons, I just felt like I wouldn’t be able to endure it if I didn’t have some time alone right now.
‘Please, let’s never meet again, even by chance. Seo Jung-hoo.’
Earnestly wishing for an impossible wish, I kicked off the ground and ran. Ignoring the persistent gaze following behind me, heading only forward.
* * *
Now, let me use my brain a bit.
‘What the hell happened.’
I plopped down on a bench in the deserted space of the school backyard, accessible through the playground, and furrowed my brow. I pressed my throbbing temples firmly while reflecting on the earlier situation.
Shooting those raw words at Seo Jung-hoo was definitely not my will. No, it would be a lie to say I had no will at all, but since I had no intention of voicing those words out loud, it was awkward to treat them as something I said entirely on my own.
“…Ah, ah.”
Moreover, now the words I wanted came out well as I intended. So it was even harder to accept the earlier situation.
If there was a problem with my body, the words going out on their own should have continued. And most importantly.
‘What is that system window.’
Even yesterday, I thought I was seeing hallucinations because I was too tired. I wasn’t being too complacent or indifferent. I was confident that anyone who suddenly faced such an abnormal sight would act like me.
But it didn’t seem to be some kind of mental problem like a hallucination.
“Hah…”
I let out a tired sigh and rubbed my face. Not satisfied with that, I rubbed my dry skin with my full palms, then slowly lowered my hands and recalled the earlier situation.
What was written there. Did it ask if I wanted to check Seo Jung-hoo’s profile information?
‘Can’t I check that now? Do I have to be with Seo Jung-hoo?’
As soon as I had that question, I saw the familiar blue light of a rectangle suddenly rising in my vision.
Would you like to check the profile information of ‘Main Character Seo Jung-hoo’?
I stared at that question with eyes full of reluctance, then reluctantly nodded. Then, replacing the previous system window that disappeared as if scattering, another window appeared.
Opening the profile information of ‘Main Character Seo Jung-hoo’.
Name: Seo Jung-hoo
Age: 18 years old (Seolam High School, 2nd year, Class 3)
Role: One of the main characters in the novel 『Only Two』
Background: This character grew up in a wealthy and harmonious family, developing a gentle and considerate nature… (Read more)
Current emotional state: Doubt, curiosity, interest
Inner thoughts: The relationship is not yet intimate enough to read the target’s inner thoughts.
What, gentle? Devoted? Pure love and what now?
Even ignoring the incomprehensible words like main character or seme, I could instinctively understand what keywords like gentle seme meant.
‘How is Seo Jung-hoo gentle? Even if he dates someone, he’s the type to toy with them while flashing that annoying smile, how is he gentle with devotion attached!’
My silent outcry couldn’t possibly reach Seo Jung-hoo. Getting angry for no reason and exhausting myself, I slumped down and just rolled my eyes to scan the other text.
The part about Seo Jung-hoo’s background seemed quite long as it was cut off before even finishing one sentence. After hesitating for a moment, I slowly reached out my finger and pressed the (Read more) text.
