Bamboo Forest Manager C.102: End Of Exam Time

In a quiet classroom.

Despite the numerous people gathered in it, all that could be heard was the ticking of the clock urging them on and the pens moving in sync with it.

Time, which seemed like it would never end when something was overwhelmingly difficult, suddenly felt like it was nearing its end, filling me with emotion.

“……”

Thunk.

I put my pen down.

The saying “effort never betrays” resonated in my heart, at least for today.

‘It’s over.’

After penning the answer to the last question, I massaged my eyes with my fingers and took a deep breath, finally feeling a sense of reality.

The last exam of the finals.

The thrill of liberation, knowing I wouldn’t have to come to school from tomorrow, surged through my body.

Of course, in about a week, I’d have to go straight to the Gold One Hotel to work, but the thought of being able to rest in the meantime felt great.

‘Let’s catch up on all the missed dramas and movies, play some games…’

Though the exams were over, I quickly planned what I would do next in my head.

With a satisfied smile, I stood up from my seat.

The exams were over.

Even though the end times of the exams varied for each, and some hadn’t finished yet, everyone seemed to share similar feelings.

I too, glanced at the Bamboo Forest and left a notice with a smile.

Not too verbose, because notices aren’t meant to be long. Humming a tune, I was heading home when I got a message on my phone.

Seeing that it was Yu Arin, she must have seen my posting and texted me right away.

She was probably on the Bamboo Forest just a moment ago.

“…Okay?”

Seeing no further response, it seemed that was all she wanted to say. It could mean she wasn’t interested, or that it was enough.

Just in case, I sent a message, and soon after, I got a reply.

“Hmm.”

Maybe I was feeling too sensitive.

Lately, Yu Arin had been visiting frequently, so I mentioned it just in case, but that seemed unnecessary.

Apologizing for my unnecessary concern, I received a quick reply.

What’s with this girl?

Ignoring her, I hurried home. I didn’t want to get caught up unnecessarily.

After a quick shower at home.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

“Open up, Kim Woojin!”

“Crazy woman, you said you’re not coming!”

“Oh, whatever!”

What did she mean, ‘whatever’? Though I sighed, I still opened the door for her.

Creak.

Yu Arin and Jeong Chan-woo entered, carrying bags of beer with smiles.

“Hello, Woojin.”

“We came to keep you company since you’re lonely!”

“Chan-woo’s here too? Great!”

“What’s this? Why only welcome Jeong Chan-woo?”

Yu Arin pouted, offering a bag filled with beer. She seemed upset that I appeared closer to Chan-woo than her.

“I have something for Chan-woo.”

Pointing to the grotesque figure Yu Arin made last time, I said to Chan-woo.

“It’s yours, take it.”

“What’s that?”

“It’s the monstrosity Yu Arin made last time. She even named it… What was it again?”

Yu Arin, putting the beer in the fridge like it was her own home, replied nonchalantly.

“Woojin and Chan-woo.”

“That wasn’t the name.”

“Woojin is the dildo part, and Chan-woo is the inserted part.”

“By the way, who told Arin about the old man incident last time?”

Asking knowingly wasn’t a good habit. I was about to advise Chan-woo, but he was already glaring at me.

“I mentioned it casually… Do you still keep in touch with the old man?”

“Of course not!”

Is he denying it too much? He seemed like a nice person to me.

Chan-woo stormed off to the bathroom, while Yu Arin, humming a tune, set the place up.

“Why did you come?”

“To hang out. You’re done with exams too.”

“That’s true.”

“And we’re all going to Gold One Hotel together, so we should strengthen our bond and figure out what to do there.”

“That’s true… what?”

What did I just hear?

Staring blankly at Yu Arin, she put her hand to her mouth and smiled mischievously.

“Let’s work hard together there, okay?”

“You’re going too?”

“All our high school friends. When I told senior Ju-hee, she introduced us right away. Thanks to her, we got a sweet part-time job for winter vacation.”

“…Well, that’s actually better.”

It’d be easier to live with familiar faces. We’d be staying in assigned dorms, and I could room with Chan-woo.

“What should we eat with the drinks? Did you order?”

“You’re the host, you should order. We brought the drinks.”

What nonsense, I thought as I opened the delivery app on my phone.

“I’m ordering saucy chicken.”

“Why saucy chicken with beer? Order fried chicken.”

“I’m adding rice to the saucy chicken.”

And I’m the host.

Yu Arin, grumbling at my firmness, made a last-ditch effort.

“Then order cheese saucy chicken!”

“That’s nonsense! Who puts cheese on saucy chicken!”

Saucy chicken should be eaten as it is for the best taste.

“Jung Chan-woo, come out! Just saucy chicken or cheese saucy chicken!”

“I-I have a stomach ache!”

That guy is pooping as soon as he arrives at someone’s house.

If he weren’t handsome, I’d have kicked him out. Strangely, the thought that his pose while pooping would be sexy made me feel even worse.

“He’s useless when needed.”

“Ugh!”

Did he hear that?

Though it was a harsh statement, Yu Arin didn’t stop and jumped on me.

“Cheese saucy chicken! Order it! At least with cheese! Add noodles!”

“Agh! What noodles! Add fried rice!”

Luckily, I was taller, so I lifted the phone high, and Yu Arin couldn’t reach it.

She jumped twice to grab it, but if it were Seo Yerin, she would have pouted and complained by now. Yu Arin was different.

“This brat!”

Like climbing a tree, she climbed onto me.

“Ugh!”

The unexpected situation almost made me lose my balance, but I’m Kim Woojin, who didn’t miss a single day of home workouts even during exams.

…I don’t know why home workouts were so fun during exams.

Standing firm like a sturdy tree, I held the phone behind me, out of her reach. Panting, Yu Arin clung to me, wrapping her arms around my neck and legs around my waist.

Our breaths grew heavy, and a bit of sweat formed. Our cheeks brushing felt oddly intimate.

“……”

Yu Arin, clinging silently.

“What are you doing?”

I asked, bewildered, and she mumbled softly.

“I don’t know.”

“Get down. Chan-woo’s coming out.”

“No. I want cheese saucy chicken.”

“……”

“Or I won’t get down.”

“Where do you think you’re putting cheese on spicy saucy chicken!”

“Cheese saucy chicken.”

“It’s delicious as it is.”

“Cheese saucy chicken.”

I heard the toilet flush.

Panicking, I tried to get Yu Arin off me, grabbing her waist and pushing her, but.

“Hmm!”

All I heard was a strange moan, unable to get her off. Instead, she clung tighter.

“Fine! Cheese saucy chicken!”

I had no choice but to surrender, but she still didn’t get down.

“Add noodles.”

“This girl…”

“Add noodles!”

“Fine! Add noodles!”

“…Drinks.”

“Are you enjoying this?!”

“Hehe!”

Finally, she got down. Panting, I barely managed to get her off, and she took my phone to place the order.

Then Chan-woo came out.

“Hey, you pooper. Because of you, we have to eat cheese saucy chicken!”

How could he think of pooping as soon as he enters someone’s house? I scolded him, and he scratched his head, shrugging.

“Sorry, my stomach wasn’t well.”

Then he glanced at us, sensing the atmosphere, and gave an awkward smile.

“Should I go home?”

“What are you saying?”

“Just… It seems like a good idea?”

Sensing something, Chan-woo spoke mysteriously. Ignoring him, Yu Arin continued ordering side dishes.

“…I need the bathroom too.”

To change the atmosphere, I headed to the bathroom. I needed to wash my face.

Thud.

Entering the bathroom, I felt something strange. It should have smelled bad, but it was still fresh.

Was he so handsome that even his poop didn’t smell? No, that wasn’t it.

‘There’s no toilet paper?’

I realized the toilet paper was in the living room. Don’t ask why.

Without toilet paper, how did Jeong Chan-woo clean up?

No smell, no way to clean up, yet he flushed. This logically meant he didn’t actually poop.

“……”

Realizing that Chan-woo intentionally left us alone.

Something.

Made me think this was going to be a complicated drinking session.
