I Don’t Want This Reincarnation

two people I saw on my way to work.”

Kwon Se-hyun, who had become somewhat accustomed to my attitude, responded bluntly, turning over the documents without even looking at me.

“Oh, yeah.
Good morning.”

“What morning is it now?”

“That’s what it means.”

What is it? For some reason, I felt like I was getting more anxious about issues related to Gyeongseong.
I hoped not.

“Did you send the employee to the motel?”

“Sent.”

“Who did you send? They must be someone you can trust.
And it might be dangerous, so be careful…”

“Han Yi-gyeol, get out.
Go down and help them clean up.”

Being kicked out of the office before I could even finish speaking, I burst out laughing in shock.

No, I was talking about this because I was worried about you, but you kicked me out without listening to the end? I’m just trying to help you not to be in trouble for the rest of your life.

‘I tried to help you a little bit before the space disappeared…’

The feeling I had gotten better at finding the way out fell to the ground in an instant.

It wasn’t that I liked Kwon Se-hyun.
Rather, I didn’t want to see Dies fall into Gyeongseong, no matter how fake it was.

It was at that time that I seriously thought about whether I should attack right away and beat Kwon Se-hyun to bring him to his senses.
Cheon Sa-yeon, who went up to the third floor, saw me standing in front of the door and smiled slightly.
On the contrary, my forehead was miserably contorted.

‘He’s stamping on his way to work, very.’ (출근 도장을 찍네, 아주)

Cheon Sa-yeon visited Kwon Se-hyun several times a day when he came to Dies.
He only picked the time when Kwon Se-hyun was alone in the office.
How ridiculous it was to see that.

‘What the hell are you two talking about…’

After thinking about it that far, I quickly stopped thinking.
Enough.
I was the only one stressed out if I had to pay attention.

I was about to pass by, avoiding Cheon Sa-yeon’s gaze, who was looking at me, but his cold hand gently grabbed my wrist.

“……?”

“Where are you going, so busy?”

“Do you care? Let go.”

I tried to shake it off, but the wrist that was caught didn’t move at all.
Damn power difference.

“Han Yi-gyeol, look at me.”

Cheon Sa-yeon swept my bangs with his other hand.
I turned my head to avoid the touch.

“Loose this and talk.”

“I’ll let you go when you see me, so please look at me.”

At the word ‘please’ that came out of his mouth, my heart fluttered like a typhoon.

His hand touched my face as I bit my lip once more.
I followed that hand and slowly raised my head, which had been bowed all the time.

“……”

When I first blocked Cheon Sa-yeon, who was going to meet Kwon Se-hyun.
This was the first time since then that I faced Cheon Sa-yeon properly.

My expectation that he would be smiling as shamelessly as usual was mercilessly shattered.
When I saw Cheon Sa-yeon’s face smiling bitterly with his black eyes filled with some sad emotion and his lips slightly stiffened, I couldn’t hide my bewilderment.

“Are you relieved of your anger now?”

“…I’ve never been angry.”

“You were avoiding me like that?”

“It’s just a little… uncomfortable.”

It sounded like an excuse, but it was the truth.
To be angry, I didn’t have the right to do so.

It was Cheon Sa-yeon’s heart to try to be close to Kwon Se-hyun, so it wasn’t a problem for me to intervene and get angry.

“Yeah.
So, did that uncomfortable feeling go away?”

“Go away? Are you still doing this?”

There was an office right in front, so if you made a loud noise, Kwon Se-hyun or other people might eavesdrop.
I lowered my voice and whispered in reply as Cheon Sa-yeon folded the corners of his eyebrows slowly.

“I thought you would be like that for a while if I left you alone.”

“……”

Cheon Sa-yeon’s voice, who spoke like that, seemed quite lonely.
Hearing that, I started to feel a little sorry too.

Well, when you thought about it from Cheon Sa-yeon’s point of view, it was just confusing.
Because I reacted sensitively to his light playfulness, I avoided him openly after that for a long time.

‘Cheon Sa-yeon is working hard to get out of here like everyone else.’

Having barely cleared my confused mind, I sighed and answered.

“Alright.
I won’t do that anymore, so let go.”

“Are you serious?”

“What does it mean to lie? And we can’t stay here like this.”

“Hm, that’s true.”

Cheon Sa-yeon, who meekly agreed, moved his hand slowly.
His thumb swept over the corners of my eyes, passing my cheek and toward my ear.

Cheon Sa-yeon’s hand, which moved in a circular motion along the pinna, gently pressed the earlobe below.
Then an unknown, chills sensation passed through the nape of my neck.

“Ugh, what the hell…”

As I pulled my body back, startled by the tickling sensation I felt in my ear, Cheon Sa-yeon lowered his hand, holding my wrist this time.

His thumb tickled my palm and his fingers intertwined with mine deeply.
Then it went down slowly.
All this process went by very slowly and clearly.
When I realized this, heat surged on my face.

He must have been this on purpose.
Was he really crazy? I turned my back on Cheon Sa-yeon and hurried down the stairs.

“…wh, what?”

As I ran down the stairs, I heard another footstep behind me.
I asked Cheon Sa-yeon, who followed me as if in arguing.

“Why are you following me?”

“Um?”

Cheon Sa-yeon, who had come down close to me with a smile, tilted his head slightly.

“Following you? What do you mean?”

“Don’t you have a business in the office?”

“No.
I was going to see you from the beginning.”

“……”

The heat, which had barely subsided, flared up again.
I cursed inside and covered my hot face with my hand.

Behind the sound of my footsteps thumping and roughly descending the stairs, Cheon Sa-yeon’s light footsteps followed.
