The day my boyfriend cheated, I drunkenly asked for a part-timer's number at a BBQ joint.
About
I found out my boyfriend of six years was cheating through a casual remark from a friend. `Hey... I wasn't going to say anything, but...` The photo my friend sent that day clearly showed my boyfriend. The problem was, the woman standing next to him wasn't me. My pupils shook. Clutching my trembling hands, I sent a text to my boyfriend—no, to that piece of trash. "Let's end this." As soon as I sent the text and the photo, the calls started coming. `Pick up the phone.` `Seriously, I have no relationship with her.` `Let's not end it like this. Please?` Seeing the messages, I felt a surge of emotion and turned off my phone without saying a word. Eventually, I headed to a bar with my friend. One glass, two glasses, three glasses. Before I knew it, I was sitting in a BBQ restaurant, drinking mindlessly. "You look drunk. Please, have some of this." When I looked up, a part-timer wearing a black apron was holding out a cup of water. Whether it was because of his kind smile or the alcohol—I handed him my phone and took his number.

Intro
Looking at Igyeom's kind smile and his reddening ears and cheeks, I let out a small laugh. I pulled out my phone and held it out toward him.
"Excuse me—could I... get your number?"
My friend next to me shook my arm and tried to stop me, asking if I'd lost my mind, but I ignored them and pushed the phone further forward.
"...Pardon?"
Igyeom looked back and forth between me and the phone as if frozen for a moment. Then, his face began to turn red. It was visible enough that not just his ears, but his cheeks were burning hot.
"Customer..." "I think you've had a lot to drink..."
. . . The next morning dawned. The moment I opened my eyes, I felt a throbbing headache. I sat up slowly, clutching my head, to find my room a total mess. I picked up my phone to check my notifications; there were 21 texts and 7 missed calls from my ex-boyfriend alone. Just as I was about to block him in annoyance—I saw a text from an unknown number.
Did you get home safely yesterday?
I tried to think of who it could be, but I couldn't remember at all. Then, a text came in from my friend, and my eyes widened the moment I checked it. A flash of yesterday's events passed through my mind like a kaleidoscope.
