A Loving Family-Chapter 82: A Loving Family
"Woah, it was totally worth coming here. Wasn't it incredible? Did you see the crystal ball? Looked like the latest gear, huh?"
After visiting the academy, Daeho spoke as they left the building and headed home.
"What did you talk about with Seulgi when you were looking at the crystal?"
Jinwoo asked, curious.
"Ah, I was totally surprised. She already knew everything I was going to ask."
"What did you ask?"
Daeho squinted his eyes and looked at Jinwoo for a while.
"Didn't I tell you to bury secrets in your room before leaving? Why ask such things?"
Then, evasively, Daeho teased him.
"I never thought such things actually existed."
Jinwoo, genuinely surprised, told Daeho.
"You never know with these things... usually..."
Daeho responded, agreeing with him.
"Psychic powers, huh... sigh."
Jinwoo exhaled deeply, drained of energy.
"What are you talking about...?"
Daeho suddenly turned to Jinwoo, a puzzled expression on his face.
"What?"
Jinwoo felt something was off by Daeho's expression.
"You don't really believe that, do you?"
Daeho frowned slightly, his face saying 'surely not', as he stared at Jinwoo.
"Huh? Daeho, weren't you just praising how amazing it was?"
"Wait a minute~ Are you actually saying you believe it's real psychic powers?"
Daeho spoke as if incredulous.
"What...? No?"
Jinwoo, confused, spoke.
Daeho looked at Jinwoo as if he couldn't believe it, then suddenly burst out laughing.
"HAHAHA~HAHAHAHA~"
Daeho's laughter grew louder.
"Don't laugh! It's annoying!!!"
Jinwoo angrily shouted, offended by Daeho's laughter.
"Sorry, sorry... But do you really think it's psychic powers? That makes no sense!"
Daeho barely held back his laughter as he talked to Jinwoo.
"Then what? You experienced it yourself, didn't you say it was impressive?"
Jinwoo still couldn't understand Daeho's reaction.
"Hahaha, no, no, not really!"
"What?"
"Hahaha, oh man, my stomach~ Haha~ Magic starts even before you get on stage! They must have gathered info about us beforehand from Minji and Sua, taking on roles to set the mood and acting like guides, didn’t you see?" ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Daeho explained to Jinwoo, trying to hold back his laughter.
Minji and Sua being decoys...
"That's...impossible~!"
Jinwoo stuttered in disbelief.
"But how can you not be surprised after they even researched me, who decided to come at the last minute? That's what's amazing."
Daeho continued to explain why he was impressed.
"Daeho, weren't you the type to believe in this stuff? It's so different from what you used to talk about with friends at school!"
Jinwoo felt unfairly deceived, as if he was the only one fooled.
"That's because it's fun to talk like that."
Daeho had always explained his actions too simply, like when he secretly took a photo of Sohee, and yet again Jinwoo couldn’t understand his pattern of behavior.
"But they even knew things that only the real person could know!"
Jinwoo resisted believing Daeho's words to the very end.
"Ah~ So that's real skill! That's how fortune-telling works~ They gather all possible info they can from people around beforehand. And think about it~ The stuff only you would know is something you could come up with if you just think a bit."
"But you don't think they'd invite parents to a school and deceive them like this, do you?"
"Hahah~ Are you really that naive? They probably didn't expect to fully fool anyone, just showing off a magic event!!"
Hearing Daeho’s explanation made Jinwoo feel like he had been hit on the head.
Daeho, enjoying his amusement alone for a while, then said, "Can I talk about this with the other kids at school tomorrow? Pfft!"
Leaving with a playful greeting, Daeho headed towards his home.
Jinwoo headed home, replaying the day's events at the academy, feeling embarrassed and uneasy.
**
Arriving home, Jinwoo didn't see Sohee.
He threw his bag in his room and sent a text to Sohee from the living room.
'Noona, where are you?'
Soon a reply came from Sohee.
'Out with friends, why?'
'Where?'
'What do you need to know for?'
'Come and pick me up then!'
'I'll stay out a bit longer! Besides, I'm with Sinbi so don’t worry!'
Sohee sent back a curt reply.
Jinwoo, remembering what he heard at the academy, wondered if Sohee had really unlocked his smartphone password and snooped through it the night before.
His smartphone contained photos of ejaculate on his mother's face and photos of sleeping Minji sucking his cock.
There were also inappropriate text conversations with his mother that should remain secret and photos of Sohee that Daeho took while stalking her.
Sohee worried about the uncomfortable sexual relationship between Jinwoo and their mother.
She hoped Jinwoo would quickly find a girlfriend so that the awkward relationship, especially with their mother, would resolve itself.
-Though until then, there was no definite knowledge that Jinwoo and his mother had been sexually involved-What could Sohee have thought when she saw the conversations between Jinwoo and their mother right before sleeping?
Although it was defined as just playful chatting, his mother was almost submissive in her demeanor during their conversations.
Regardless, Sohee had felt like a lover during their sexual encounter that night.
-It was also her first time-
Jinwoo was sure that the feelings they shared then were absolutely genuine.
Could Sohee have felt jealous or betrayed seeing the photos and conversations with their mother?
Was she contemplating revenge on Jinwoo?
Jinwoo wanted to ask Sohee if she had secretly looked at his smartphone, but he barely suppressed the urge and instead sent another text.
'What about dinner?'
'Don’t worry, I’ll eat before I come home.'
'Isn’t it too late?'
'Mom’s not here, what does it matter?'
Sohee replied brusquely again.
'I’m alone!!!'
Jinwoo replied with a hint of sadness.
'What? You manage fine on your own.'
'I wanted to eat with you!'
After a while, no reply from Sohee.
'I’ll try to come home as soon as I can... Don't wait for me!'
Jinwoo felt somewhat comforted just by this response from Sohee.
'Come safely~!'
Jinwoo finished the chat and quickly washed up and changed his clothes.
**
Entering Sohee's room, Jinwoo noticed the box of condoms he had left on the bedside table the night before.
The only trace of the previous night.
Carefully crossing the messy room, Jinwoo approached Sohee's bed and picked up the box to count the condoms.
Five...
It seemed Sohee had taken two condoms with her to school that morning.
Jinwoo wondered if there might be boys among the friends she was currently with.
The more he thought about it, the tighter his chest felt.
The bed sheets and blankets appeared to have been changed.
Jinwoo lay down on Sohee's bed, looking up at the ceiling.
His mind replayed the events of the day.
The conversation with Teacher Yoo Yena.
Seulgi's crystal fortune-telling.
Was it really just a special event targeting parents, as Daeho had said?
Would they have given different answers if he had asked different questions?
Did Minji and Sua know the secrets about Jinwoo?
Perhaps everything that happened there was just Jinwoo's own delusions and assumptions.
Daeho said it was just the latest equipment that could put anything like Minji's birthday inside a crystal...
Jinwoo was drifting into sleep as these thoughts circled in his head.
**
Jinwoo was awakened by the sound of his smartphone's ringtone.
Picking up the phone, he saw it was his Aunt Haeju calling.
"Aunt Haeju?"
"Jinwoo, what are you up to? Were you sleeping?"
"Ah, I think I just dozed off a bit. What's up?"
"What's up? I was thinking of stopping by to see your face. You're home, right?"
"Uh, yeah, but...?"
"Have you eaten?"
"Not yet."
"Great, I'm nearby, so I'll be there soon. See you in a bit!!"
With that, Aunt Haeju hung up.
Jinwoo recalled the image of Aunt Haeju in her underwear that he had seen the day before.
And the photo of Aunt Haeju and Minji in their underwear that he had checked just yesterday.
Her large, voluptuous breasts.
The crease between her legs.
Aunt Haeju often made sexual jokes with Jinwoo, even on regular days.
But the photo sent yesterday clearly crossed the line of just a joke.
Given Aunt Haeju's playful nature, it could still be explained as a joke.
But on the other hand, if Aunt Haeju was sending Jinwoo signals of seduction, pretending to misunderstand could lead to a situation where no complaints could be made if Jinwoo acted on it.
Like yesterday, was she coming to bring side dishes...
She resembled their mother.
If Jinwoo were to penetrate the slit in Aunt Haeju's groin, would she moan like their mother?
The thought made Jinwoo's cock tense with energy.
