Chapter 125 - Orea's Dilemma
"OW!" she yelped and spilled milk over her t-shirt. "WHAT THE HELL? YOU SON OF A-"
She let out a series of swear words at him for making her wet her shirt. Minwoo only shook his head in dismay.
"Keep up with those words and see if any of your idols marry you!" he snorted.
"As if they'll marry me after what happened," she muttered to herself. Her head was full of thoughts about Myung. He kissed her in that trial room and that too out of the blue. Why would he do that?
She tried to figure out his motives but could come up with none. It was such a shocking moment for her that she was frozen to her spot. He kissed her. He bloody kissed her!
At that moment, she was too shocked to react. His kiss was deep and she felt a strange intensity emitting from him as if he meant every second of his kiss. Her heart pounded against her chest and she was totally at a blank on what to do. Should she have kissed him back? Or slapped him? Or both?
Her head was bursting with many questions. When he released her lips after a while, he said something which she could not comprehend. She only recalled his lips, the darn lips which kissed her, moving. For a second, she had a crazy urge to kiss him back but she was too tongue tied to talk.
Finally, he left her there. Orea was so invested into thinking about why he kissed her that she did not even watch her favorite idol's interview that night. In fact, she did not even play her online games which she usually played at nights to kill time. Her head and heart were in a major dilemma.
Is he sick? She wondered.
"Oi!"
Minwoo's angry voice brought her out of her reverie.
"Are you even listening to me?" he frowned.
"No," she said shortly. "I'm busy with my thoughts."
"What thoughts?" he scoffed. "All you think about are computers and idols!"
And Myung, she added in her head. Ugh!
But she needed to tell this to someone and get it out of her system. SD was out of the question because despite his constant annoyance at her, he was quite overprotective when it came to Orea. If he found out that Myung kissed her, he would make the poor boy's life miserable.
She could have asked Sunye but the lawyer had been unreachable since last night. Strangely, SD was also out of reach but she was used to him being missing for months. The rule in their business was that no news was good news. It meant that no one was dead.
That only left…
"Minwoo," she began. "Have you ever kissed a guy?"
"Loads of times!" Minwoo claimed. "My latest boyfriend was this trainee. He wasn't a looker but had a sexy body and kissed like a beast! Too bad that his girlfriend got pregnant and he had to break it off with me. A lot of trainees are in the closet like me."
He let out a loud sigh.
"So you've kissed guys before?" Orea asked. Bingo!
"What do you do after a kiss?" she queried.
"Things that you're too young to know!" Minwoo said sharply.
"Oh come on!" she insisted. "At least I'll know not to do those things if a guy ever kisses me!"
"Let's just say those things involve me being bent over a lot," Minwoo grinned.
A shadow appeared behind Minwoo. Orea immediately pursed her lips and tried to motion at Minwoo who was still talking.
"Minwoo…" she began but the guy was still describing his experiences.
"On my hands and knees," he said with a grin. "Sometimes, I'm at the back too. Doggy st-"
A hand grabbed his hair and pulled it hard.
"AHHHHH!" he yelped in pain as SD pulled his hair while smiling widely. Sunye stood next to him, feeling sorry for the poor guy who was facing SD's wrath.
"You love to bend over, right?" SD asked cheerfully. "How about we bend you permanently?"
He pulled Minwoo's hair harder, bending him backwards all with a smile on his face while the poor idol comically yelled in pain.
"OW OW OW!" Minwoo cried. "I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T HOME!"
"Oh so you're teaching this kid all the perverted stuff while I'm away, huh?" SD concluded, still torturing Minwoo's hair.
"Let go of my hair, SD!" Minwoo begged. "I'm gonna go bald! It'll kill my career!"
"Being bald is the new thing now!" SD claimed. "I bet you'd be more alluring to the other idols-"
"SD, I was the one who asked him!" Orea claimed. "Let him go!"
SD scowled and let go of Minwoo, who was rubbing his head.
"Can't you be gentle?" he cried.
"With you?" SD questioned. "Nope! Teach her perverted stuff again and I'll float you down the River Styx! That too with a burnt poker up your-"
"You're the one being too graphic!" Sunye snapped at SD. "And Minwoo, you can't give such a detailed explanation to a minor! Ugh! You men are hopeless! Orea is curious about something and she should be explained about these things in a mature way."
"She only needs to know that all men are trash!" SD claimed.
"Yes, and you're the leader of that trash!" Sunye shot back. "Now, you go and pack your stuff for your trip and let me handle Orea. She needs a grown up to explain to her about these things. She shouldn't be listening to a bendy idol and a manchild villain!"
"Big sis!" Orea went around the table to hug Sunye who was a little surprised but patted her head. The men were pouting at them. SD was annoyed at being told off by Sunye while Minwoo lamented the loss of his hair.
"You better not go kissing guys while I'm out, otherwise I'll shave off their heads!" SD warned. "And I'll start with Minwoo!"
"What did I do?" the idol asked, feeling flabbergasted.
"I don't know but if any guy tries to play with Orea, I'll blame you!" SD threatened. Minwoo gulped while Sunye and Orea stifled their laughter.
"Let's leave these two alone," Orea muttered. "I need to talk to you, sis!"
She pulled Sunye towards her room. Before closing the door, she turned on a switch in her room.
"It's an alarm," Orea explained. "In case SD and Minwoo are snooping outside the door to overhear us."
"SD is just being worried," Sunye said. "After all, you're still young."
"I know…"
Orea sat down on the bed while Sunye took a seat next to her. The young girl looked confused and embarrassed.
"What happened?" Sunye asked. "You seem distressed."
Orea bit her lip and turned to her. "Sis, promise me you won't tell SD," she begged. "But something happened at the mall yesterday."
"I won't tell him," Sunye promised. "Now tell me."
Orea took a deep breath and revealed, "Myung kissed me!"
