- In my past life, I stayed in the city, joining a
- good company, and I wouldn’t leave without a
- better option.
- Besides, Jake also stayed in the city after
- graduation.
- I glanced at Jake, but he silently stared at the
- distance.
- Jason’s voice drifted: “Consider it; our
- company has a bright future.”
- When he died, his company was thriving.
- But…
- “Wherever Jake ends up, I’ll be there.”
- Jason said nothing.
- Dark clouds gathered, blocking the sun.
- “It’s going to rain,” I said.
- Jake stood, surveyed the area, and said,
- “There’s a guesthouse ahead. Let’s go there.”
- <
- The weather changed suddenly, and it started
- to rain.
- I walked slowly and fell behind.
- Jake turned back, put his jacket over my
- head, and knelt, “I’ll carry you.”
- I climbed onto his back.
- He was fit, and his pace was steady even with
- me.
- I looked back for Jason after a few steps. He was following slowly, his gaze fixed on us. The rain intensified, blurring his expression.
- Upon reaching the guesthouse, Jason
- checked in, reserving a room.
- When Jake and I reached the front desk, the
- clerk said, “Only one room left.”
- Jake instinctively reached for his ID, but I
- grabbed mine, “We’ll share a room.”
- Join the heal
- く
- Jason and Jake said simultaneously:
- “No!”
- “I’ll share a room with my brother.”
- Ignoring them, I urged the clerk to check us
- in.
- After receiving the key, we headed upstairs. The clerk’s voice followed: “Two people? Only
- one room left.”
- A couple stood behind, looking at each other. The man shyly said, “One room is enough.”
- I looked at the clerk, who winked at me.
- Me: “…”
- 6
- Jason’s room was opposite ours.
- I opened my door, and saw Jake heading for
- the opposite room.
- “Jake,” I said, “Your room is here.”
- KALAAN 三
- Join the bookeh–c
- <
- He paused, “It’s not appropriate for us to
- share a room.”
- I lowered my eyes, “Okay. But you might not
- see me tomorrow. I heard a female serial
- killer is targeting single women near the village…”
- Before I finished, Jake had strode into my
- room.
- Jason stood motionless at his door, his gaze
- dark and uncertain.
- He must have also been reborn!
- So what?
- This life, I don’t want anything to do with him.
- I only want a peaceful life with Jake.
- “Is he angry?” Jake’s low voice sounded
- above me.
- I turned, confused, “What?”
- Join the bookshelf
- く
- Jake’s handsome face was tight, “You made
- us share a room just to provoke him, didn’t
- you?”
- It’s no wonder he thought that.
- I fell for Jason at first sight and launched a
- full–scale pursuit.
- Anyone would say I was obsessed with him.
- There was no use explaining. Jake believed I
- only loved his brother.
- I looked up, “Get closer.”
- “What for?”
