Yes, It’s Me. The Obsessive Side Top

#050

“Huh?”

“You need to be punished, Ha Jin.”

“Why?” I asked as if it was unfair. As if enjoying my confusion, Sun Woo smiled and leaned in close. As a result, Sun Woo’s face, which I got to see right in front of me, was fatal enough to make my heart pound. Each of his facial features is a work of art. Well, the author must have drawn the protagonist with the most care.

“Then before being properly punished, try kissing first. If you do well, I’ll go easy on you.”

“Do what? Kiss?” Admiring his face, I quickly pulled back at the sudden ordeal.

“If you don’t want it to be hard on the bed. Try doing it well.” When Sun Woo closed his eyes, I swallowed dry saliva. Maybe it’s because I cried a lot, but I feel thirsty. If I press my lips against those moist lips…

“This is crazy. Crazy.” Slapping my lips with my hand, I erased the thoughts.

My hand, which was hitting my lips that were feeling thirsty for no reason, was caught by Sun Woo. Sun Woo, who at some point opened his eyes and was examining me, smiled with the corners of his mouth stretched.

“Why are you hitting yourself? You’ll get scolded a lot later.” Sun Woo moved his body a little more, coming close enough for my lips and his lips to touch. Sun Woo’s languidly open eyes under my face looked maddeningly lewd.

Watching him trying to kiss, I unconsciously opened my mouth and slightly stuck out my tongue. I thought our tongues would entwine right away, but Sun Woo was just smiling with his eyes gently closed. In an instant, my face flushed hot. Thinking that he’s laughing at me readily accepting the kiss, I want to hide in a mouse hole.

“I wonder if you’ll have the energy to cry in bed after crying so much.” With those words, Sun Woo immediately pounced and his lips touched mine.

“Mmph.” I stupidly got my hopes up and then gave up, but the excitement boiled up in an instant at the sudden kiss. Seeing his slightly closed eyes, it felt like my heart was being squeezed tightly. His kiss was affectionate yet salacious at the same time. He indulged as if bestowing mercy if I came closer after teasing me just enough. Sun Woo’s hand slid down my arm and grabbed both of my wrists. His warm fingers pushed my fingers away and soon lightly brushed my palms. Frowning at the stinging pain, Sun Woo’s mouth pulled away.

“Haa…” A sigh of regret burst out.

“Are you doing this to hold back tears?” Following Sun Woo’s gaze as he spoke sympathetically, I looked down and saw scratches from fingernail marks on my palm. I guess I clenched my fists a bit hard in front of the hospital director to not cry. I didn’t even notice, but when did Sun Woo discover it? He spread my fingers and examined them. Soon his tongue licked my palm.

“Eek.” I try to pull my hand away from the stinging pain, but the more I do, the harder Sun Woo pulls it towards him.

“Still, you shouldn’t make wounds like this.” Sun Woo’s head lowered and licked my other palm as well.

“Stop it.” My protest seems to be automatically filtered to Sun Woo. Sun Woo didn’t stop licking my palms.

“I need to apply ointment. What are you trying to do by putting saliva on it?” The stinging sensation has now dulled too. As the pain disappears, what comes is pleasure. Just from licking my palms. The temperature inside my body is slowly rising. Afraid that moans would come out from the excitement, I bit my lips. Then when I reached my limit, I pulled my hand away with all my might.

I quickly pushed his face away and got out of the car. The hot, tropical night-like heat didn’t leave my face that doesn’t usually feel the heat well. Cupping my cheeks with my hands, I peeked down and saw that thing boasting its grand presence with a very ominous force.

‘Ack! He must have clearly seen it, right?’ Embarrassed to see his face, I was hesitating when Sun Woo got out of the car and held out the car key to me. Receiving it in a fluster, Sun Woo stood maintaining a certain distance. I was curious about his expression, but I couldn’t raise my head.

“What are you doing? Not going in?”

“Ah, I should go in.” As I turned my steps towards the front door, hesitating, Sun Woo didn’t follow. Turning my head in wonder, Sun Woo’s expression looked very bright. As if something good happened.

“…You’re not coming?”

Even though my question wasn’t funny, Sun Woo let out a small laugh.

“To be punished?”

“…What punishment.” 

“Go in, Ha Jin. Don’t make people change their minds for no reason.”

“I go in alone? What about you?”

“I… need to go to Grandmother.”

“…”

‘What? Why am I feeling disappointed?’ When Sun Woo said he’s just leaving, I was about to shake off my disappointed look and go in, but the car key in my hand caught my eye. Looking back, I saw Sun Woo still smiling in the same spot.

“Sun Woo. Take the car.”

“It’s fine. I can take a taxi.”

“But the car is more comfortable.”

“If I take the car, how will you come tomorrow?”

“I… can take a taxi, right?” Either way, it was a matter of who takes the taxi. Sun Woo looked at me with a bright face but also a murderous gaze.

“I don’t like it.”

What does he suddenly not like?

“I don’t like you being in an enclosed space with someone else.”

“…”

Goodness, I must be crazy. Kissing such a twisted guy and liking it enough to get hard. Shaking my head, I quickly ran into the house. As I heard the front door lock click, my legs went weak. Collapsing and crouching down on the spot, the quiet house felt awkward.

I already miss the bustling life at Grandmother’s house.

“It’s… fortunate that I can go to Grandmother’s house again.” A crumbling sense of relief flowed out.

* * *

People dressed to the nines were exchanging greetings with elegant smiles.

‘It seems more like a fashion show venue than a charity event.’ I need to go see Grandmother, but at the request of Secretary Kim, who knows I came up to Seoul, I attended a charity event hosted by the Eunha Group. With this hospital matter too, Secretary Kim earnestly asked, so I came out of gratitude, but I think I came to the wrong place after all. I feel like I’m too ignorant of this world. I should have looked into how they turn a famous gallery in Seoul into an event hall.

Amidst the formally dressed people, my presence particularly stood out. It was because I was just wearing a cotton t-shirt and slacks. It was a great relief that I brought long pants instead of shorts, thinking it might be a bit much.

“Young master Ha Jin. You’ve arrived? You should have called.”

“I just got here.” Secretary Kim looked at my outfit and smiled without a word.

“It looks just right for your age.”

“Should I go change?”

“Why, when it’s good that you stand out? Just stay.”

Then someone suddenly interjected into the conversation.

“Not even an ugly duckling.” The person speaking softly enough for only us nearby to hear was my father. As always, he was in a perfectly immaculate state without a single dishevelment. His hair was neatly pushed back, fully revealing his handsome face without a single flaw. He looks dashing. Though his inside is a total mess.

“I thought being one-of-a-kind would sound good?”

With what courage, I talked back on an impulse of welling emotions. There was a slight calculation that he wouldn’t hit me since there are many people. That was my timid rebellion. My answer must have been unexpected, as my father raised his eyebrows. His expression was still gentle, but… Feeling that subtle difference, the corners of my lips slightly went up. Honestly, my father’s agitation was refreshing.

“Cut the nonsense.” He spoke so only I could hear and smiled softly at the people around. At his two-faced attitude, I slightly stepped back, and he took a step forward by that much.

“I got a call from Director Sin yesterday. Saying he met you.”

Frowning, I bit my lower lip. Surely he’s not taking issue with Grandmother’s hospital matter, right?

“I don’t know what you cooked up, but he praised you quite a bit.”

“…”

“Looks like you changed how you use that pretty face of yours? Instead of trashy behavior, now you’re acting innocent? Saying you’re just like when you were little. Director Sin has no eye.” My father eventually snorted and looked me up and down with sunken eyes.

“A pathetic kid who can’t even make a request to block one article.”

“I may be like that because I’m young. But aren’t you a heartless person who doesn’t step up to block one article for me, Father?”

“What?”

“…”

The atmosphere froze in an instant. As if forgetting there were many people, my father hardened his expression. Only after Secretary Kim coughed once next to us did he put on the gentle mask again and pressed his forehead hard with his clenched fist.

“Ha Jin. How dare… you crawl up?”

Secretary Kim quickly intervened so I couldn’t open my mouth.

“Chairman. The mayor has arrived.”

“See you soon?”

My father muttered coldly and walked towards the entrance. Following his gaze, I see him shaking hands and exchanging greetings amicably with the mayor, whom I often saw on the news.

“Young master Ha Jin!” What made me avert my gaze was Secretary Kim’s shout.

“Ouch. You startled me. Why are you yelling close to my ear?”

“That’s… because that way I can deliver a warning message to you without attracting attention from others, young master.”

“Yees. I understood fully.” As I was tapping my ear with my hand because it felt muffled, Secretary Kim sighed.

“Why do you keep doing that to the Chairman? Even if you rebel against that son of a… you never talked back before.”

“I guess I grew some balls.”

“…It’s not time yet.”

“For what?” Secretary Kim spoke with a face heavily drooping like a wet cotton ball.

“You can’t win a single game of rock-paper-scissors against the Chairman. It’s like hitting a rock with an egg.”

“So what? Even if I shatter against the rock, I’m satisfied if I left behind a lingering sensation.”

Secretary Kim closed his eyes tight as if my answer made him dizzy.
