chapter 15
15 – New Student Welcoming Party
“Okay, then, see you next week at this time.”
“”””Thank you for your hard work.””””
The young professor responded with a charismatic smile.
Every movement is neat and cool.
Is this why soldiers are so cool?
Should I call Ara soon?
I said I would come pick you up when I finished, so if I don’t, I’ll get upset.
I lifted my bag and got up from the chair.
When I tried to leave, Jeonghwan grabbed his wrist and dragged me.
Forcibly ‘washed down’.
For the boys here, aren’t they really strong?
You don’t have muscles for nothing.
“Seonghwan. Are you going to the new student welcoming party today?”
“No? What about you?”
“Of course I have to go! I heard seniors buy you free drinks!”
Whether it was one way or the other, there were few men in the social welfare department.
Maybe that’s why the student council also takes a lot of consideration for men’s convenience.
It seems like it exists.
The first convenience is that attending the new student welcome party is free.
Do you usually pay for a welcome party?
“Well, after paying the student council fee, wouldn’t there be a need to pay separately?”
“Is that so? I must know something.”
“….It’s only been a day since I saw you, but you seem to be letting go of your life.”
The motto is not to pay much attention to content that is not of interest.
So, even though the other world knows that Ara is a member of Queens,
I had no interest in the names of other members.
Right now, I think of him as Ara’s co-worker.
“Anyway, let’s go to the welcoming party together. If you’re not there, go with Lee Min-ho over there.
We have to sit together and drink.”
“Um… What should I do?”
Drinking alcohol means you will inevitably be late.
If I’m late, I won’t be able to prepare Ara’s dinner.
And then, you’ll just worry and wait until I get home.
As expected, it’s not going in the right direction….
“Ugh…”
What kind of guy’s eyes are so shiny?
Be weak-hearted.
These are the first friends I made, but going home from the first day was
Did I do it too much?
Should I just go today?
I’m sorry Ara, but can you just close your eyes?
Anyway, how should I say it…
“Huh? Let’s go together.”
“Ah…Okay, let it go.”
Before I knew it, I was pulling the sleeve of my sweatshirt.
I slapped Jeonghwan’s hand.
Only then did she realize that she was pulling me by the sleeve.
Junghwan recognized this and apologized.
Her face is smiling, so she doesn’t look that sorry.
“First, I’ll call my wife.”
“Yes, Mr. Jesu is worried…What? Are you married?”
“Yes.”
“When did you do it? Already at that age?”
“I did it during winter break when I was a senior in high school.”
I don’t know the details, but Ara proposed to me.
I of this world seemed to nod to that.
If I had been proposed to in the other world, I would have nodded my head too.
“Wow… I saw the ring and thought she had a girlfriend… Did you get into an accident?”
“We didn’t hit each other. We just did it because we liked each other.”
“Kya… This is pure love. Recognition, recognition.”
“What are you admitting?”
Minho came back from the bathroom and sat down in the front seat.
I wonder why Jeonghwan is so excited.
“Can I tell you?”
“Well, it doesn’t matter to me because I’ll find out someday.”
“Hey, listen to me”
Junghwan is so loud that I can hear him.
I whispered loudly into Minho’s ear.
The amount of consideration is so overflowing that it seems like it’s exploding.
Really, making one or two women cry won’t be enough.
Minho is nodding his head at the explanation Jeonghwan is giving.
It looks like he isn’t as surprised as I thought.
“It’s not a common occurrence, but it’s also not unheard of.”
“Really? I thought I was unusual.”
“No, it’s actually something unique.”
Minho giggled and laughed.
Suddenly, I felt like I knew why Jeonghwan was having a hard time.
This is why the relationship between the two people…
“I’m just kidding, how old are you, Jae-su?”
“I’m twenty-two this year. We’re two years apart.”
“We both got married at a young age,
Going to college means that the other person is capable, right? Then there’s nothing you can’t do.”
“Well, that’s true.”
In response to Minho’s answer, Jeonghwan said he thought he would know.
She nodded her head loudly.
Ara is definitely a capable woman.
Even if I have more than 10 children right now, I feel envious of others.
It is the ability to feed oneself.
She said it even reached #1 on the Billboard
The problem is that you are both an idol and a solo singer.
The truth that only I know,
I couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
***
In the end, it was decided to put her participation on hold and present it to Ara and take action after her.
I decided.
She explained her reasons in detail to the chairman, and he understood.
She felt guilty about not being able to prepare dinner.
She called her phone.
“Sister? What are you doing?”
-I’m drinking coffee in the lounge. What is Seonghwan doing?
Are you talking about the sky lounge on the middle floor of the apartment?
It is a cafe-like lounge that sells coffee and drinks.
“That’s right…Actually…”
At the new student welcome party with the friends I made today. She announced that she was going.
Ara makes noises and responds to what I say. She’s just giving
Answers.
-Where are we going?
“It’s a meat restaurant right in front of the school, and it’s called Happy Pig Slaughterhouse.
It’s a restaurant.”
-Well, call me when it’s over and my sister will pick you up.
Instead, should I just drink a little bit and not get drunk and follow other women?
“Can I really go?”
-It’s not like your older sister is oppressing you, it’s a welcome party for new students.
I’m having fun with my friends.
“Sister….”
I knew that Ara was a very understanding woman, but
Was it like this?
In the community, a man in his thirties is with same-s*x friends.
There was an incident where a text message was made public, asking for permission by saying that they were going to a PC cafe and drinking, and that it was a request for approval after calculating the budget and time.
The wife, the next day, went on a trip to Hong Kong, but when they saw her not giving her permission, she incurred the wrath of the men.
The reason is just that.
It’s just something I don’t like.
I was so dumbfounded when I saw that.
But I feel like my eyes are filled with tears.
I didn’t marry those women,
I’m glad I married Ara.
It was lovely at first, but the more we spent together, the more
It’s becoming more lovely.
Does this mean they are a couple?
-Instead, if you get drunk, you won’t have any nights out for a week?
“…Wouldn’t that be harder for you to bear?”
Ara laughed, saying something that was not in her mind.
He was trying to get rid of me by playing a prank on me who was sorry.
It fell over her receiver, but she hoped it would reach her properly.
I kissed her with my heart and hung up on her.
Drink in moderation, don’t follow women you don’t know…
Is he being treated like a child?
“Permission? Come on and tell me!”
‘I told you to let it go because you got permission.’
Do I really like it when I go out drinking?
I approached the chairman who was writing down the list of participants in front of me.
It looks like he came directly because the department head wasn’t there yet.
“Um… Chairman?”
“Ah! Seonghwan, how are you?”
“With permission, I think I can attend.”
“Ah! Thank you so much. Seonghwan said he wouldn’t come unless he came.
I was a bit worried because there were a lot of crazy girls…No, b*tches…No, I had a lot of classmates.”
“Aha…..?”
What does that mean?
If I come or not, why do my seniors
Do you mean that it is a reason for attendance or not?
“What is that…”
“I have a lot to look around, so I’ll go first! Seonghwan, please come!”
The venue has been leisurely receiving attendees until now.
He said he was busy with work and ran away.
That also cuts off my words…
I was dumbfounded and just stared at the white board in front of me for a while.
***
“What is your hobby?”
“What about your girlfriend? Do you have a girlfriend?”
“Do you like Japanese animation?”
The last question was unexpected, but
The questions asked are all similar.
About me.
I guess that’s what I’m curious about.
At that time, the chairman intervened and started pushing them away.
They got too close, and they seemed to be considerate.
“Seonghwan, it’s a burden. Please stop.”
“Pretending to be nice… You’re curious too, b*tch!”
“Who was the happiest about coming? What a pretentious, pretentious person!”
“Well, if you didn’t come, Seong-hwan, it was a welcome party, and it was a joy of relief that you didn’t come!!”
“Wow… He even speaks informally now. The president of our department.”
“If you’re the president, that’s all! You’re telling a senior like me, Mr. Kwak, that you’re going to die.”
“Ugh…I shouldn’t say anything.”
It seems like the Chairman is having a hard time because he is being tormented by these girls.
Should we say that seniors as a whole are doing My Way?
The relationship is very good, they seem like good people, but the tension is too high.
“Everyone, please sit down. This is a welcome party for new students.
In this way, it feels like it’s Seonghwan’s meeting place.”
The chairman stood up and calmed everyone down.
Accordingly, both seniors and classmates returned to their seats and sat down.
My heart also felt better.
I really thought I was going to get caught and die.
“Chairman, it doesn’t matter to us, right?”
“It has nothing to do with me and the freshmen. You idiots!”
What is making the chairman angry even after going to his place?
These are her motivations.
They shake their shoulders and sit down, saying there is nothing they can do.
The male seniors put their hands on their foreheads and endured headaches.
And, the eyes looking at me looked sorry.
“Hmm.. Then..”
The chairman trailed off her words and raised her glass.
It looked a little awkward, but the subsequent actions of the seniors made it even more brilliant.
The seniors also lifted glasses full of beer together.
It looked very awkward when I was alone, but the image I lifted first was
It was presented in such a wonderful way that it made my heart swell.
Is this crowd psychology?
Only we freshmen were confused and did not know what was happening,
The astute classmates were filling up the beer and imitating his actions.
Wait a minute, that person is drinking soju, not beer.
“Well then, congratulations on the admission of our junior class of ’17 freshmen, cheers!”
“”””””””Cheers””””””””
They hit the glass so hard that it broke.
I drank all the contents in one shot.
Regardless of whether it is soju or beer.
And just like that, the new student welcome party began.
