Sohee sat next to Yoojung for a while and came out after confirming that she was completely asleep. Ichon-dong, as I parked in front of my house and got out of the car, I saw a large figure sitting on a bench in front of my apartment find So-hee and slowly get up.
"Ji Hoon… brother?"
As I got closer, it was Jihoon.
"How could my brother get here at this late hour… ?"
It was the first time. He came so suddenly without an appointment or contact.
"I want to see."
Today, really, be patient... It was difficult.
"yes? Call me ahead of time, what if it's cold and you catch a cold... . Five… bar?"
He reached out and hugged Sohee. It happened in an instant.
ah… warm As if standing next to a blazing bonfire, his body relaxed and melted comfortably. At first, she was taken aback by the sudden touch, but Sohee soon buried her face in his arms a little more without realizing it. It had been only a few hours since we had dinner together and parted. Oddly enough, she felt much closer to him now and more at peace.
Perhaps, because of Yoojung, her head and heart are too complicated and painful. Maybe she didn't know she wanted to play her grudge against him. She hasn't touched her since last summer's brief kiss, except to hold her hand. It was the first time for Sohee to hug her like this and to rub her face in his arms like that.
"for a moment. Why are you so full?"
"yes? then… go?"
"You didn't even turn on the heater, did you drive?"
"Oh right… ."
"How could you be more full than me who waited outside? What do you do when you are really sick? Now, are you sane?"
Come to think of it, I forgot to turn on the heater because I was worried about Yoo-jung and thinking about Gu Ji-gyeom and that person. I didn't know it was cold because I was preoccupied with something else. She pondered for a moment whether to ask him about her brother, Ji-gyeom. However, she could not easily bring out Yoo-jeong's story.
He covered Sohee's white cheeks and red ears with his hands again and again. He was angry and worried about why he did it like an idiot.
It's because he's a bit busier than usual and looks like a big dog somewhere. Golden Retriever, no. Yeah, maybe a very big, shiny, black-eyed Siberian Husky would fit his image. cook. Sohee smiled unconsciously.
"He's smiling peacefully now. get in quick I've seen her face."
To the man who said that, Sohee unwittingly threw the words that crossed her mind.
"brother. for a moment… Would you like to go in?"
It must have been upset His arms are so warm that makes me forget the cold of winter. He doesn't like the affectionate touches he puts here and there, saying that he warms his body. And now he can feel the scent of last summer that somehow tickles her heart. therefore.

I knew I shouldn't go to Sohee. For Jigyeom, it was about to finally get everyone caught in the tightly woven trap, and it was a moment when we had to be careful again. But today, his heart is noisy. He couldn't concentrate on work at all because of his unidentified anxiety. In the end, he left work earlier than usual even though he still had some lab work left.
What is the identity of this unbearable feeling? jealousy? No way.
Of course, on Saturday evening, I found out that today was the day Jihoon and Sohee were dating. Besides, Jigyeom has already endured too many things to be swayed by such things.
I came home with such a confused feeling, but as soon as I opened the front door, Jigyeom became very uncomfortable with the pheromone of Alpha and Omega that hit me. It is impossible to know who the assertive alpha pheromone is. dog food.
Still, thanks to Jihoon's willingness to come to him in any way, he easily obtained his inhibitor. According to the original plan, I was going to go directly to his house or visit his hometown tomorrow or so, but it turned out to be easy.
Even after Jihoon passed away, the words he had uttered continued to reverberate in Jigyeom's head, who had been concentrating on his work for a while in the study.
Abusive remarks towards Sohee. That's never going to happen, but when you two get married... . Jihoon's shitty taste makes you fully anticipate what will happen. And above all.
[If you're sad, you weren't born two minutes earlier.]
It wasn't something I heard once or twice. It was also the logic that Jigyeom's father forced on him in various ways throughout his life. Still, I couldn't stand it today. Maybe he didn't want to be patient.
While driving impulsively to Sohee's house, I thought I had to go back several times. It was quite late anyway, and it was clear that Sohee would not be able to see her face. But I just wanted to be closer to her, even just for a moment. If you're lucky, you might even be able to sense Sohee's pheromone, even faintly.
But there was no car where her car should have been parked. On the 8th floor, Sohee's house was also turned off. It was time to come back after breaking up with Jihoon a long time ago. There's no way I'd go to the lab to work at this time on the weekend.
no way… maybe something happened What if you are in a dangerous situation?
Jigyeom's doubts turned into anxiety, and that anxiety soon turned into extreme worry.
It was miserable. I think Sohee is worried and will go back. Jigyeom couldn't do anything. She even contacted her. She's not even allowed to ask where she is, if she's okay. All I can do is sit on the bench and repeatedly stare at the headlights of cars coming from afar and pray that the car will be Sohee's car.
So it was. So-hee's car came in, and as she, who got out of nowhere, walked in front of me, Ji-gyeom stretched out a new hand that she did not know. She held her in her arms, lowered her head, buried her nose in her Sohee's crown, and inhaled her breath. Her fresh and sweet scent tickled him far away. ah… Lim So-hee, it is her. she is right Only then, I was relieved.
I knew that even approaching Sohee in this way, especially skinship, was not allowed. However, once held in my arms, I couldn't let go. The moment he clenched his teeth, carefully pulling her away from her arms. Ah, Sohee buried her face in Jigyeom's chest. The touch of her soft cheeks and the feeling of her small, moist lips went beyond her coat and shirt, even to him.
My body got hot in an instant. Alpha's instinct to recognize its mate. In order to suppress the alpha pheromone that was pouring out, Jigyeom had to work so hard that even in a short moment, he was sweating. By the way… .
"brother. for a moment… Would you like to go in?"
"… What?"
I thought it was okay because I was concentrating on warming her cold body, but it felt like all my efforts were in vain at Sohee's question.
Her question wasn't really directed at him. So you have to reject it. However.
"It's the first time. that came this far. just… Just have a cup of coffee and go."
Oh, it's too late for coffee. Her face, which was somewhat gloomy, looked lonely.
what happened So is it this late?
"Yeah, then then."
At that, Sohee lifted her head and looked at him and smiled broadly. He was an overly shining eye, alone in a twilight alley lit only by streetlights. Jigyeom's chest tickled.
"Oh yeah… That, brother... Brother… ."
"yes?"
"Oh, no. nothing. Come in."
Sohee pondered whether to ask him more about Jigyeom, his younger brother. But the deep, black eyes she met made her look so innocent and goofy today, so she had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
***
As soon as I entered Sohee's front door, Jigyeom regretted my decision. The neat and cozy space resembling the owner was filled with her scent. Omega's pheromone, which has been accumulated for a long time, stimulated Jigyeom's body tightly. He should have been taking more inhibitors.
But Jihoon Gu has never really come. Even if there is a strong promise between the families, he is not a great person who can suppress his instincts with this level of pheromone.
"It's my first time here… . I didn't even organize it properly, so it must be a mess. Don't make fun of me."
Sohee, who first introduced a man to her space, felt awkward and shy. No matter how fiancée you are, you are strangely tense and sensitive all over your body. Maybe it was because he was in his arms. It was warmer and more pleasant than expected, so Sohee kept thinking about the touch. Arms wrapped around my body, tight chest, lips touching my hair, and breath that was hot in the cold air. Most of all, it smells good. It was completely different from dinner at a restaurant. He said he had a job, so he ate the drug that was being tested again.
"uh… brother? Aren't you coming in?"
Unlike Sohee, who had already entered the kitchen, Jigyeom was still standing in the hallway.
"Even if you go in… Are you okay?"
Yes, yes. Seeing the gentle smile, Jigyeom let out a low sigh.
Actually I'm not okay Behind her, who had already turned to the coffee machine, Jigyeom let out an inaudible self-talk.
"Where was that coffee cup… ."
It's been a long time since a guest came. Sohee, who let out a self-talk, opened the cupboard and reached out her hand high.
oh I'll take it out," said Jigyeom, and Sohee's movements were a little faster.
"oh!"
waggle window. The overlapping plate fell to Sohee's feet and shattered.
"Lim So-hee!"
