Junghwan, who had approached from the end of the hallway, acknowledged Bonoh when he saw him. Unlike high school exams, university exams had a higher probability of low scores the faster you finished. Since these were exams where you could write as much as you knew, finishing quickly meant there wasn’t much to write. The person who came out first was called the “gold medalist,” but it wasn’t a good thing.
“Bronze medal means you studied a bit?”
“Sort of?”
Bonoh giggled. His mood had been down, but talking with Junghwan lifted it a little.
“Shin Hyungwoo isn’t out yet?”
“Yeah. What are you eating for lunch?”
“Well. Pork cutlet or maybe a home-style restaurant after a long time? Want to come?”
“I’ll ask Joo Taeseong.”
Junghwan had come to eat with Hyungwoo. Normally they would have eaten together as three without saying anything, but after Taeseong joined on orientation day and the atmosphere became tense, Bonoh ended up eating separately. It was better than awkwardly eating together as four, watching each other’s reactions. Anyway, it was only when this class ended, and he still saw them whenever they drank, so there wasn’t much to miss.
Just then, the lecture hall door opened and Taeseong came out. When Taeseong spotted Junghwan next to Bonoh, he made a disgusted expression. It seemed like he’d heard the answer without even being asked. That’s why they had to eat separately. Both Junghwan and Hyungwoo were playful but decent guys, so he couldn’t understand why Taeseong disliked them so much.
“I don’t need to ask. Let’s just drink together after exams are over.”
“Okay.”
Junghwan seemed to think the same and made plans for later.
“Oh right, don’t you want to be introduced to a girl?”
Bonoh stopped on his way to Taeseong at Junghwan’s words. Just then, his eyes met with Taeseong who was approaching.Â
“Suddenly?”
The bewildered Bonoh glanced at Taeseong. Then he felt annoyed at himself for not knowing why he was reading Taeseong’s mood. Taeseong silently waited for Bonoh. It seemed like he was waiting for Bonoh’s answer along with Junghwan, and it felt like he was saying “go ahead and answer.”
“Yeah. Remember that girl who greeted me on the street before? She asked me to introduce you.”
“Ah, was it Haneul-ssi?”
“Heh. You’re playing around.”
Junghwan and Bonoh’s attention was drawn to Taeseong who suddenly snorted. Why is he like that again? Bonoh was going to refuse, but Taeseong’s reaction made him feel defiant.
“If you introduce me, I’d be grateful. I’ll contact you later.”
Even after parting with the guys and leaving the building, Taeseong kept bringing up the blind date.
“You’re not going to meet her, right? You just answered casually because it was bothersome, right.”
“……”
Even walking quickly, Taeseong easily kept up with his large strides. Bonoh was already annoyed and this made him even more furious. Why are you making a fuss when I’m the one getting introduced? You have someone else anyway.
“Hey, if you’re not going, contact them quickly to say you’re not. The later you change your mind, the ruder it is to both the other person and the matchmaker.”
“I’m going though?”
“You’re going to meet that Haneul or whatever her name is?”
“Yeah. I’m going to meet her. I had nothing to do on Saturday anyway, so it works out.”
Walking quickly, they had already exited through the back gate. He could see the sushi restaurant they were heading to. Perhaps because it was a sushi place with good value, there were people in line despite it being a weekday lunch. Damn, why is everyone eating sushi? Eat something else. Even though he had come to eat sushi himself, Bonoh felt unnecessarily irritated.
However, since he didn’t want to choose a lunch menu and have another conversation with Taeseong, he silently stood in line.
“Why don’t you have anything to do on Saturday? You still have exams next week! Aren’t you studying? You kept nagging about a student’s duty and made me stop drinking, but have you given up on grades completely?”
“Damn, you said to listen hard during lectures and not make a fuss after they’re over.”
“You didn’t even listen hard during lectures!”
“Ah, I’ll do it after I come back! Is that okay?”
Bonoh answered roughly as if annoyed and stood looking only forward. He could feel Taeseong’s gaze staring down at him from the side, but he ignored it.
“Then what about me?”
Bonoh was going to keep ignoring him, but Taeseong suddenly shouted, making everyone in line turn around. What’s this? Looks like they’re fighting. The sound of murmuring kept reaching Bonoh’s ears.
“You, what.”
“Who am I going to eat lunch with on Saturday!”
He could hear someone say “Oh my.” This was the first time Bonoh had felt embarrassed by Taeseong. Unable to bear the attention, Bonoh dragged Taeseong to any nearby restaurant.
Unfortunately, it was an Italian restaurant that specialized in risotto and wood-fired pizza. Bonoh led Taeseong to any available table. After sitting down, he noticed all the tables on both sides seemed to be couples. The couple at the left table was feeding each other, and the couple at the right table was wiping each other’s mouths.
Between them, Bonoh had to share risotto and wood-fired pizza he didn’t even like with a thoroughly sulking Taeseong. He felt like he might get indigestion.

“Hey, Kim Bonoh. What should we eat for lunch tomorrow?”
“I told you I have plans tomorrow. Eat by yourself.”
Friday evening, Taeseong once again pretended not to know and asked Bonoh about Saturday’s lunch menu. During this time, Taeseong had been picking on Bonoh whenever he had a chance. No matter how you look at it, it’s suspicious, it’s definitely a cult for someone you don’t know well to suddenly ask to meet, is she really a student at our school, what are you trusting to meet someone whose identity isn’t even clear, that suspicious Kim Jeongwoo who’s setting you up with such a suspicious person is also strange so don’t meet her.
Since their schedules overlapped, Bonoh spent most of his time with Taeseong, and Taeseong nagged him non-stop. He didn’t even pretend to listen when corrected that it was Park Junghwan, not Kim Jeongwoo.
At this point, Bonoh couldn’t say he wouldn’t go even more. It was competitive spirit if you called it that, stubbornness if you called it that. He absolutely couldn’t back down.
Actually, Bonoh had already declined on the evening of the day he met Junghwan. Fortunately, it was before Junghwan had spoken to Haneul-ssi. But he didn’t want to tell Taeseong that he had declined long ago and had no plans tomorrow either. His plan was to go out for lunch tomorrow, grab a quick meal, spend some time alone appropriately, and then come back.
“Are you really going out?”
“Yeah, ah, how many times do I have to say it.”
“……”
He expected another sharp retort or nitpicking, but unusually, Taeseong became quiet. Bonoh was a bit concerned about such a Taeseong but deliberately ignored it. Bonoh intentionally sat at his desk trying not to look toward Taeseong. But he kept unconsciously following Taeseong’s movements.
Taeseong went into the bathroom and came back out quickly. Even though Taeseong had come out, the sound of water pouring from the bathroom sink continued. Glancing over, Taeseong was reading a book with a nonchalant expression. Did he forget to turn off the water after washing his hands? Bonoh got up and headed to the bathroom.
Sure enough, the sink water was running and even the bathroom light was on. Bonoh thoughtlessly turned off the water and came out, even turning off the bathroom light.
“Ah. Sorry, I accidentally left the bathroom light on.”
“It’s okay. I just turned it off.”
“It’s not okay. I broke the rules, so punish me.”
Taeseong slammed shut the book he was reading and got up. Bonoh hesitated and stepped backward. As the person who had established the rules, this had never happened before, so he couldn’t understand what wind was blowing to make him act like this.
“Are these my rules or your rules?”
“Exactly. Since I made the rules, I should set an example, but I’m sorry, what should I do?”
Disgustingly, Taeseong really did look sorry as he dropped the ends of his eyebrows. Bonoh was dumbfounded. Did he take the wrong medicine? Why is he like this?
“Yeah yeah, you don’t need to be sorry at all. I said I’m fine, didn’t I?”
“Hmm, usually in cases like this, isn’t it aggravated punishment?”
Taeseong, who had approached within arm’s reach, pulled down Bonoh’s pants in one motion without giving him a chance to stop him.
“Hey! What… huk.”
Taeseong took Bonoh’s glans into his mouth. Bonoh gasped and tried to step back further, but his back hit the wall. The fallen pants hung around his ankles like shackles. If he struggled, it seemed like he would trip over his pants and fall sideways.
Taeseong glanced up at Bonoh’s face once, and after confirming there was no sign of displeasure, he applied pressure with his lips and sucked strongly. That alone was enough to easily make Bonoh’s cock erect.
“Ah, huwuk. This crazy, ahh.”
Taeseong took the glans deeper into his mouth. He wrapped his tongue around the shaft, sucked hard, then relaxed and released. With his hand, he played with the hole. He spread the hole to let cold air in and very slowly inserted his index finger.
The dry hole without saliva or gel couldn’t easily accept the finger. Taeseong patiently applied pressure little by little to push it in. He spat out Bonoh’s cock that he had been holding in his mouth. Then he sharpened his tongue tip and licked from the root to the tip with the pointed tongue tip. When he blew air from below, the rigidly erect cock twitched.
“Ah, hak, ah, stop!”
Bonoh’s buttocks jumped at his irritated moan. Taeseong inserted his middle finger deeper into the hole while soothingly licking Bonoh’s scrotum. He sucked the skin of the testicles with his lips then rolled them with his tongue. Though Bonoh’s buttocks tightened with tension, Taeseong applied even more force to thrust his finger in.
Bonoh was going crazy not only from the stimulation to his cock but also from the finger slowly entering his dry hole. Every time the finger moved, the flesh of the inner walls was pushed as if being scraped, but the pleasure was stronger than the pain.
