EP.70 Sleeping…? (2)
Sleeping…? (2)
A futon spread at night
when the moon is floating in the sky .
A small light in the room barely relied on by a single candle.
and male and female.
There was no way I didn’t know what this meant.
It’s not that I don’t have experience in my previous life. I knew what kind of situation this situation was.
It was just the opponent that was the problem.
“…why are you doing this?”
Namgoongbia gives a questioning expression to my question, as if she doesn’t understand my intentions.
No matter how you look at it, it seems that he intended and prepared for such a situation, but the opponent is none other than Namgoongbia.
There was no way that stupid thing could have thought of this and that and created the situation.
I asked Namgoongbia.
“I would have given you…two rooms, but why are you here?”
“…you said you didn’t have a room…?”
“Who is it?”
“Jang Moon-in…”
Mae Hwa Seon?
Hwasan isn’t a small town, and there’s no way there’s only one outbuilding.
My question is terrifying, and Shinnoya strikes and enters.
[For generations, volcanic scholars are quick-witted and act quickly.]
‘…Didn’t you just say what a volcanic group was?’
[…Life is like that after all.]
When I looked at Namgoongbia, she had changed her clothes and her hair was slightly wet.
Under the moonlight, her already white skin seemed to glow.
It seemed more like that because of the situation.
“…after.”
But why is he doing this?
No matter how strong they are, do they really not know what the situation is like?
In front of her, Namgoongbia was still expressionless. I looked at it and thought.
‘…It’s pretty, but it’s really filthy pretty.’
Namgoongbia, who was carelessly sitting on a futon and basking in the moonlight, was really overly beautiful.
I felt that the brutal and cold atmosphere that I had in my previous life was overwhelming.
The neatness and beauty of her present life had a different charm.
‘The face is a weapon.’
Even if I denied everything, I couldn’t deny that Bia Namgung was beautiful.
Even more so if we were looking at each other…
If I had been facing Namgoongbia like this at this age in my previous life, I wouldn’t have been able to keep my sanity.
It was something I didn’t know if he was going over the hallway and laughing.
‘now?’
Are you holding on to it now?
I couldn’t be sure.
That’s because Namgoongbia was alluring right now.
I frowned at the thoughts that kept passing by and turned my back.
It felt like there shouldn’t be any more.
“…There seems to be something wrong, so Soje will sleep here and I will sleep on the side of the escorts.”
You can ask for another room tomorrow, but I’m a male palace, so I won’t give it to you.
[Crazy…]
It was obvious what Shinnoya would say, so I didn’t intend to listen.
I was just thinking about getting out of here quickly.
back.
I stumbled backwards at the feeling of pulling the sleeves of my clothes.
When I turned around, Namgoongbia was holding my sleeve tightly.
It wasn’t easy even trying to get rid of how tightly I was holding on to it.
“What are you doing…”
“Don’t go.”
Namgoongbia’s eyes were firm as she said that.
What should I say?
What should I say…?
“Then we should sleep together…”
“No?”
“Why is it…?”
“Because I’m a fiancé…”
Even as Namgoongbia spoke, her expression was subtle, as if she was not sure.
Namgoongbia, who had been thinking about the reason for a long time, said with trembling lips.
“Let’s hold hands and sleep…”
“Yes?”
what? …Did I hear that wrong?
what did i just hear?
As if I was in great shock, I turned to stone, but Namgoong-Bia, who said the words, looked calm.
Wasn’t it usually said from the opposite point of view?
Namgoongbia asks back if there is something strange even if she thinks about it.
“…isn’t this?”
“Where did you hear that word from…?”
“…Hongwa said it could be done like this.”
If it was Hongwa, it would be the name of the attendant who accompanied Wiseolah?
Have you ever become friends…?
Maybe it was because they couldn’t communicate at all, but Namgoongbia’s thoughtful appearance was slightly funny.
Even casually spitting out words that I didn’t know the meaning of.
It is also me who heard it.
Because of that, Namgoongbia’s eyes widened when she picked and made a sound without even knowing it.
“I laughed….”
“…Sorry, I laughed a little at the moment.”
“You laughed at me.”
“No…”
He might have been in a bad mood, so he tried to make an excuse.
Just like that, I kept my mouth shut.
It had to be.
Because Namgoongbia was smiling.
Just a little bit, but with a smile on his face that was clearly visible.
Seeing that, my hand touched Namgoongbia’s cheek as if possessed by something.
It was because I stretched out my hand.
Why is this madman doing this?
I was startled by what I had done without knowing it, and I immediately tried to withdraw my hand, but I couldn’t.
It was because Bia Namgoong gently grabbed my hand that touched her cheek.
I felt warmth in my hand.
Namgoongbia’s cheeks were cold.
My hands were always hot because of the simbeop in my body.
But unlike her cold face, her hand wrapped around mine was hotter than that.
The subtle emotions seen on her face make even me, who had tried to ignore it, stumble.
Namgoongbia said, leaning her cheek on my hand.
“…Let’s sleep together.”
Her cheeks were flushed red unlike usual.
******************
It’s time for celebrations.
My body was quite tired from running and being swept around all day, but it was a night where I couldn’t sleep easily.
Moonlight streams in through the slightly open window.
The pale light passed through the hair of Bia Namgung, who was sleeping peacefully.
I was looking at Namgoongbia’s face.
[You fell asleep quickly.]
Shinnoya, who had been quiet for a while, appeared.
I laughed silently at that sound.
‘Where have you been?’
[Wherever I went, I just slept for a short while.]
‘You seem to have slept well.’
[Yes, I slept very well.]
Shinnoya doesn’t sleep and can’t hide anywhere.
just stayed quiet
Knowing that, I didn’t know whether to be grateful or dumbfounded.
As soon as the situation went strangely, Shin Noya was quietly immersed in it, but the situation he had hoped for was not there.
In the first place, I didn’t think that there would be another inner meaning hidden in Namgoongbia’s intention.
Namgoongbia really simply asked to sleep with her.
In fact, Namgoongbia quickly fell asleep as soon as she lay down.
If this was the case, wouldn’t it be possible to sleep separately?
‘…He falls asleep rather quickly.’
Could it be that the usual fierce expression is actually because of a lot of sleep?
I had such a funny thought.
[What do you think?]
‘What do you mean?’
[The child sleeping next to you.]
I couldn’t say anything when he suddenly came in.
Because it was something I couldn’t answer easily.
Shin Noya must have felt that, but he pretended not to know and continued talking.
[I know
you feel more guilty than affection towards this child.] ‘…’
I don’t think so.]
I couldn’t dare say no.
I was able to understand a little bit from the eyes that sometimes appear when looking at me in Namgoongbia’s actions that are gradually approaching me.
why.
Why?
Why does Namgungbia bother to get involved with me until the next life?
Did you start to have a strange feeling for you, who had nothing at all?
I slowly reached out my hand to Namgoongbia, who was breathing loudly.
It was to get rid of the hair that tickled his face.
By the time his hand touched her hair.
-…Is the moon floating…?
A voice that had been haunting me was heard.
The hand that was trying to reach the voice that cut through my heart returns to my arms.
The rain that had fallen then hadn’t fallen yet.
I didn’t want that situation to happen either.
The moon shining through the window is still there.
It reminds me of her staring at it endlessly at night.
The last time he died in my arms was also clear.
‘Not yet.’
I was slowly feeling that Namgoongbia was different from my previous life.
In other words.
The more that happened, the more it became a story about realizing that there was no longer a swordsman.
So it was not easy to reach.
If you had a heart in the first place, it’s because he wasn’t either.
In the past, I wasn’t even in a situation to let someone in, and I was overwhelmed with other things.
‘Then now?’
I asked myself.
Is it still the same as then?
I immediately came up with an answer to the question, but I couldn’t formulate my thoughts.
No matter how you look at it, the hesitation was still there.
Because I missed everything, I was reluctant to catch anything.
‘…Am I still scared?’
I don’t know if I’m scared because of the things I’ve been through.
Whatever it was, I shouldn’t have been too sure.
Because I was sure to miss it again.
It was all the more so because I heard that I was in a situation where I didn’t know when I would die.
flinch.
Beside her, Namgoongbia tossed and turned.
As if he was having a nightmare, his forehead was crumpled slightly, so I pressed his forehead with my finger.
“…umm.”
Then it makes a strange noise and tosses once more.
Seeing that, the corner of my mouth went up a little without my knowledge.
It’s only been a few months since I returned.
It was still difficult.
******************
The night passed and the morning dawned.
The point where you can hear the crowing of chickens in the distance.
Namgoongbia groaned and stood up.
It was always difficult to wake up because I was a sleepy body in the morning.
Someone is seen through the gaps in the hazy mind and blurry vision.
“Woke up?”
Gu Yangchen was sitting on the floor outside the door.
‘…ah.’
Namgoongbia saw that and realized that she had fallen asleep with Gu Yangchun yesterday.
Thanks to that, I was able to fall asleep again without a bad smell.
I didn’t have the nightmares I always had, and it felt easier to wake up in the morning than usual.
This is the serenity you can only have after meeting him.
Maybe it’s because I fell asleep much closer than usual, but the feeling was especially strong today.
Yangcheon Gu looked at Bia Namgoong and said.
“I didn’t expect you to fall asleep right away.”
“…I’m sleepy.”
“It’s from the snow.”
“…!”
At those words, Namgoongbia hurriedly rubbed her eyes, but strangely, she felt nothing.
Gu Yangchen saw it and said with a smile.
“It is a lie. Nothing is buried.”
“…?”
Namgoongbia, who had been glaring at Guyangcheon for some strange prank since morning, sensed something strange.
Something different from usual.
is it a feeling It’s not…
What’s different?
Gu Yang-cheon asked Namgoong-bia, who was in trouble.
“I’m going to eat, would you like to eat?”
“Eat… Ah!”
Only then did Namgoongbia realize what was strange.
short talk.
At some point, Yangchun Gu had been talking to him in a flattering way.
The usual feeling of standing up or forcibly pushing away was also gone.
overnight.
When Namgoongbia realized that, she felt something thump in her chest.
‘…why?’
What does this feel like?
Namgoongbia did not know.
“why.”
Namgoongbia shook her head vigorously at Gu Yangcheon’s question.
I didn’t bother to take it out because I was afraid that if I tripped and fell, I would change my tone at any moment.
Then, Gu Yangchen slowly raised his body.
It must be because he said he eats rice.
Namgoongbia also sees it and tries to get herself up.
“Boss! I’m here…”
“Ah…”
Wi Seol-ah, whom I hadn’t seen yesterday, suddenly opened the door and appeared.
Wi Seol-ah jumped in brightly, saw the two of them, and froze.
Similarly, Guyangcheon hardened like a rock as soon as Wi Seol-ah’s eyes met.
Guyangcheon could see even a slight cold sweat running down his forehead.
In the cool atmosphere without knowing it, Namgoongbia’s face was calm.
