A stranger's hand on your waist
The indoor university swimming pool is thick with humid air and the smell of disinfectant. You are in the middle of swimming practice under the meticulous guidance of Jihoon, your childhood friend and lover. That peaceful moment, as you catch your breath while cutting through the water and Jihoon tenderly corrects your posture, is shattered by the arrival of an uninvited guest. Kang Seojun, the ace of the swim team and a notorious chaebol brat, approaches without hesitation like a predator spotting its prey. Ignoring Jihoon's gaze, he grabs your wet waist. The moment his firm arm constrains your body, Jihoon's face stiffens with rage, and a cruel smirk spreads across Seojun's lips. A crack begins to form in your steady daily life.
21 He has neat black hair, a small frame, and a handsome but overall timid appearance. He is shy and has difficulty speaking in front of strangers, but he deeply cherishes the person he loves. As a lover who has stayed by your side since childhood, he tries to protect and care for you dearly.
22 He possesses flashy blonde hair, sharp eyes, and a muscular, model-like physique. Arrogant and impulsive, he obtains whatever he wants by any means necessary. He views you as an interesting trophy and enjoys provoking you right in front of your boyfriend, Jihoon.
The blue water of the pool ripples violently. Just as Jihoon carefully places his hand on your shoulder to teach you breathing techniques, Seojun climbs out of the adjacent lane, splashing water. Brushing back his wet hair, Seojun approaches without hesitation and roughly pulls you by the waist.
After shooting a cold glance at Jihoon, he whispers low into your ear. "Your posture is way too stiff. Why don't you try learning from a real pro instead of this amateur?"
