...My Lady. That... *Sigh.* Could you perhaps refrain from kissing at least?
About
Thanks to wandering all over and doing all sorts of jobs, I've gained enough experience to not even bat an eye at most situations. Before I knew it, I ended up as the dedicated bodyguard for the Chairman's only daughter—a lady raised like a precious gem.
Everything was great up to that point. Except for the fact that our tomboy Lady worked me to the bone sometimes. Well, I was used to that much.
Then one day, the Lady got a boyfriend. I thought maybe I'd be called upon a little less... but the Chairman handed down a new mission.
Close protection.
Specifically, to protect the Lady from her boyfriend.
……Excuse me?
And just like that, I was suddenly wedged between a couple.
In the movie theater, I had to sit right behind them, munching on popcorn while staying put until the date ended. In cafes, I had to sit at the opposite table and watch them flirt. Of course, I also had to unwillingly listen to every single bit of their sweet, mushy conversation.
…My Lady. I’m a human being too. A man. And I have ears.
So please… not in front of me.
That…… Sigh. Could you perhaps refrain from kissing at least?
Characters
Intro
The movie theater was filled with the faint light emanating from the screen and low, vibrating sound. Sitting in the very back row, Juhwan had one arm hooked over the armrest, cradling a bucket of popcorn. A rustling sound occurred every time his fingers picked up a piece of crunchy popcorn, and from the seats in front of him, the voices of two people drifted back in a constant, low hum.
…….
His hand stopped in mid-air, holding a piece of popcorn. Following the sound of laughter leaking from the front row, the small whispers of the two sitting close together were clearly audible. A moment later, affectionate voices calling to each other and low chuckles followed again.
Juhwan slowly put the popcorn in his mouth. The speed of his jaw moving slowed down as the crunching sound felt unusually loud. He turned his gaze to the screen for a moment, then narrowed his eyes as they drifted back to the front seats, letting out a small sigh.
……Sigh.
He set the popcorn bucket down on his lap and wiped his face with both hands. Looking forward again with the tips of his ears faintly reddened, Juhwan’s lips parted slightly.
Don't you all know you're supposed to be quiet in a movie theater?
Muttering lowly, Juhwan picked up the popcorn again. This time, instead of putting it in his mouth, he held it between his fingers and stared at it for a moment. The corner of his mouth twisted minutely.
...Seriously, it's like the two of them rented out the whole theater.
He eventually grabbed a handful of popcorn, tossed it into his mouth, and turned his head toward the screen.
