We finally left the house an hour later.
Honestly, it should have taken 5 minutes, but Heena's skills have improved over the years. Now when she gives me a BJ, she really knows how to tease me. Thanks to that, it took 30 minutes to finish the job, and another 30 to clean up and get dressed.
I could have turned the tables if I wanted to, but Heena looked so pretty with that smug smile and playful eyes that I didn't feel like it.
It seemed to have been a very satisfying time for Heena as well as me - her face was beaming with a wide smile.
"Let's take our time on our date~"
"Then should we take the subway instead of a taxi?"
"Yeah! You get carsick in taxis, babe."
"That's true."
The low profile of taxis and their distinctive smell never gets comfortable no matter how many times I ride in them. Even a 5-minute ride is enough to make me nauseous.
As we chatted and prepared to leave, we did one last check of each other's outfits at the door. We hadn't put too much effort into dressing up.
Just jeans and white t-shirts, with matching cardigans as a couple look.
"My husband looks so handsome~"
"And my wife is so beautiful, isn't she?"
"Hehehe, you think so?"
"Of course. Oh, Heena. Hold on a sec."
As if wiping something off, I placed my palm on Heena's cheek as she smiled happily.
And in that position...
*smooch*
I softly kissed her pretty lips, which were glistening moistly. They were particularly eye-catching today.
Heena's eyes widened slightly. But since we'd shared kisses like this countless times before, she didn't get flustered and simply wrapped her arms around my neck. Ṟ₳𝐍ο𝔟Ęś
"Mmm... chu..."
And so another kissing session began right then and there. We were in front of the apartment hallway anyway, with no one around, so there was nothing to hold us back.
Though it's not like we refrain from kissing even when people are around.

After taking our sweet time, we leisurely arrived at the cafe and occupied a table to chat with Heeseong hyung and his wife.
"Sigh... if you were going to come, you should have brought Sarang..."
This chapter is updated by freēwēbnovel.com.
"Really... don't you know how much I miss Sarang..."
"Some welcome we're getting here."
But instead of welcoming us, they just complained about why we didn't bring Sarang. I could understand this from Rin noona to some extent.
Relatively speaking, she hadn't been part of our family for very long, and unlike me who lived with them, it was awkward for her to frequently visit the house.
So unless we came to visit, it was hard for her to see Sarang.
But hyung could come see her anytime he wanted, yet he was saying things like this.
"Oppa, you can just stop by the house if you want. Mom was wondering why you haven't been coming over."
"I'm too busy to visit, that's why. I need to take Han Sarang to a cat cafe one of these days."
"Heeseong, take me with you when you go. No excuses."
"If you can sneak away without Jia noticing."
"That's... *sigh*..."
Rin noona's deep sigh clearly showed who the real boss of this cafe was. I heard the cafe couldn't run without Jia noona, since the other staff kept changing and Rin noona focused more on managing the place.
Anyway, we couldn't exactly call Sarang over from grandma's house, so after a brief complaint, we moved on to catching up.
"How's work going for you? I've been itching to change jobs lately."
"Oh, you know, I could switch anytime if I wanted to. I actually got an offer recently."
"Wow, damn. Is this the power of school connections?"
"You know it~"
I can't deny it. I got into my current company through a senior's referral, and even the big company that made me an offer was ultimately connected to university seniors if you traced it up. Of course, it was because my skills backed it up that the offer came.
Moving would mean better conditions, but I had no thoughts of it at the moment. Compared to a big company, the benefits might be a bit lacking and job security lower, but the flexibility in work hours was a huge plus for me.
"How about you, Lee?"
"Same old for me. The salary's decent and benefits are good. I'll probably keep working there unless something comes up."
"Is this what it's like at a big company... Why is our pay crap and our benefits garbage?"
Heeseong hyung sighed deeply and hung his head. Hyung had gone to a decent university too, but he completely slacked off there, so job hunting was pretty tough for him. The place he barely managed to get into had a distinctly mediocre vibe.
Though in his own words, he has no regrets since he had a blast in college.
"If it's that hard, just quit. Come work here instead."
"Well, that's..."
I guess it would be fine since Rin noona makes good money anyway. They run the cafe and live comfortably. Plus I heard she makes quite a bit from stocks.
She probably makes the most out of all of us. I'm not sure exactly how much though. The downside is that she's super busy because of it.
But at Rin noona's suggestion to work here, Heeseong hyung's expression soured.
"Be satisfied with me helping out on weekends. I'm basically unpaid labor here."
"What do you mean unpaid? You get an allowance from me."
"Whoa... you get an allowance? Seriously? Heeseong hyung, that's pathetic."
"Hey, I'm saving my salary for the future..."
"What savings? The house is noona's too."
"I need to prepare for retirement, you punk!"
"Noona's taking care of your retirement too. What are you on about?"
"......"
Heeseong hyung finally averted his gaze. He really had no shame.
Honestly, hyung has a lot of good qualities besides his looks, and Rin noona knew that, which is why she liked him and married him. But I've heard that the initial reason she took an interest was because he was handsome.
I guess being good-looking pays off after all?
He's probably not saving 100% of his salary, and I have no idea what he spends it on. Does he blow it all on gifts for Sarang? Come to think of it, he does buy her the most out of all the family members...
Ah, now that I think about it, that's actually pretty great. I shouldn't be criticizing him.
With that realization, I stopped pressuring hyung. I hope he keeps doting on our Sarang in the future.
"Babe, should I give you an allowance too?"
"No, it's fine. What allowance? What's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours."
"That's right~"
"You two can rub it in our faces at home. Charin's getting jealous."
"If you know that, why don't you do it too?"
"I can't be that blatant..."
Rubbing it in? This is just our normal. We had no intention of showing off.
After that, we exchanged updates on each other's lives. They even shared some slightly embarrassing details about how they're trying hard to have a baby.
Seeing how much they both adore Sarang, and Jihu, they'll definitely make great parents.
As we chatted, I carefully brought up the trip I'd been planning bit by bit.
"Hyung, can you take some time off on a weekend early next month?"
"Early next month? Not sure yet. Why?"
"I'm planning a fishing trip. It looks like we might have time around then, so I'm trying to gather whoever can make it."
"What? Fishing? Hey, did you know my nickname used to be River Ocean back in the day? When it comes to fishing, I'm your man!"
"Who is this ancient manga protagonist... Anyway, so you're interested in going? You're not sure about your schedule though?"
"I can make it. I'll make it work somehow."
He insists he'll go no matter what. Seeing how adamant he is, I should probably count Heeseong hyung as confirmed.
"What about you, noona? Can you come then?"
"Yeah, I can make it. I'll close the cafe if I have to, so count me in. Sarang's coming too, right?"
"Well, of course we're bringing her."
Did she pick that up from hyung after getting married?
Anyway, that's two more people confirmed. Mom and Dad said they'd come too, and my parents said they're in, so that makes nine so far.
I wonder about my brothers. Jeongwoo hyung and his wife might come, but Sunhoo hyung probably won't even if he has time - he'd find it too bothersome.
"So where are we going? Tongyeong? Hongcheon?"
"Busan."
"You're going all the way to Busan for fishing?"
"My army buddy runs a pension there. I've been meaning to visit for ages but never got around to it. When I mentioned fishing, he told me to come down. Said there are good spots there too."
"Oh, really? That sounds good then. We can do some fishing and then explore Busan. Maybe feed Han Sarang some octopus while we're at it."
"Oppa. Do you have a death wish?"
"Ah, okay. Stop glaring at me."
Heeseong hyung's face fell immediately at Heena's words, after grinning widely at the thought of pranking Sarang. Neither Sarang nor I are fans of slimy, creepy textures like octopus or squid.
Especially live octopus that writhes on its own - we'd never eat that in a million years. One time, Dad brought some home, and Sarang screamed and ran to her room as soon as she saw it. I followed right behind her.
Heena doesn't have any particular aversions, just preferences, so she'd eat it without much fuss. But ever since she found out I don't like it, she doesn't even mention those kinds of foods.
"Anyway, we'll count on you coming. We should get going now."
"Already? You just got here."
"Shouldn't you two be helping out soon? It's getting pretty crowded."
"Ah."
"Oh."
At my words, they finally looked around. I'd come thinking there'd be plenty of staff working on a weekend, including Jia noona, but she wasn't even here - maybe she had something come up.
Moreover, the few employees and part-timers inside the bar were struggling to keep up, and almost every seat around us was filled with customers.
There had been some breathing room when we first arrived, which is why we were able to chat, but the situation had changed drastically in that short time.
"We should head in. Want another drink to take with you?"
"I'll pack up some cake too. You can eat it together at home."
Heeseong hyung and Rin noona said as they stood up, but we both shook our heads. We hadn't even finished what we had in hand, and we'd eaten so much of the cake here already.
"It's okay. The part-timers look like they're about to cry, so you'd better hurry."
"We'll head out too."
"Alright. Both of you get home safe."
"Hey, let me know as soon as you set the date. I'll try to make it work."
"Okay~"
After watching them go help out, Heena and I left the cafe too. Some customers seemed to be leaving because there were no seats available, so we hurried out.
Finding ourselves with unexpected free time after leaving the cafe earlier than planned, I briefly pondered whether to head home or stop somewhere else.
Cuddling up with Heena at home to watch a movie sounded nice, or since we'd come all this way, taking a stroll around the university area wouldn't be bad either.
"Babe."
"Yeah?"
As I stood still, contemplating our next move, Heena called out to me.
"Is there somewhere you want to go?"
"No, I was just thinking."
"Then how about we go there?"
"Where?"
Her tone suggested she had a place in mind, so I immediately wiped all my previous considerations from my mind. If there was somewhere Heena wanted to go, I'd happily follow her anywhere.
We had about two hours free before we needed to head back for dinner and work.
What could Heena want to do in that short time? A walk around the university area since we're already here? Or maybe shopping?
For a moment, various possibilities flashed through my mind, but the answer that came out of Heena's mouth was completely unexpected.
"A manga cafe~"
