Chapter 153: First Date (3)
The adult toy store sold items meant for adults to make love between partners.
The first floor displayed risque lingerie sets that made it unclear whether they were actual underwear or just a few strings slapped together and called underwear. The scandalous cosplay outfits would also have shocked any real police officer or nurse.
Kwon Oh-Jin and Song Ha-Eun stood frozen, stunned in silence.
They often exchanged playful, dirty jokes, but standing in a store filled with actual adult items was a different story.
“Should we leave?” Kwon Oh-Jin asked.
“Uh? W-Well...”
Song Ha-Eun’s cheeks flushed like a ripe apple. She hesitated before gently tugging on his sleeve. “I-I mean, we’re not kids, right? Let’s look around a little before we go.”
She walked deeper into the store. Compared to her confident remark, she stepped as cautiously as a thief sneaking into a house.
Kwon Oh-Jin hesitated for a moment before nodding and following her.
Yeah, like she said, we’re not kids.
Of course, he thought about physical intimacy after becoming a couple. She had even actively made moves on him, but he never laid a hand on her because...
Kwon Oh-Jin’s gaze drifted down to Song Ha-Eun’s right leg. She could walk and even run without much difficulty thanks to her custom-made, high-end prosthetic.
But still, it’s not the same as a real leg.
Until he fully healed her, he had sworn on the day they got into a relationship that he wouldn’t touch her.
I’ll just grow lazy if I get everything I’ve ever wanted.
It was like finishing ninety percent of an assignment and indefinitely putting off the last ten percent. If he didn’t impose this restriction on himself, he feared that he wouldn’t be as desperate to heal her leg.
Unlike when I fixed her eyes, I don’t feel that same sense of urgency anymore.
Either way, he had sworn not to lay a hand on her until she fully recovered.
This is driving me insane.
Adult toys surrounded them. Scandalous lingerie and cosplay outfits lined the walls. Every time he glanced at them, his mind involuntarily pictured Song Ha-Eun wearing them, making him burn up.
He tried not to show it when he was with her, but he was still a healthy young man. How could he not have pent-up desires living together with a stunning woman like Song Ha-Eun? They were practically glued to each other all day.
Hold back... I have to hold back.
At least until he completely healed her, he had to suppress these strong urges somehow.
Just then, a female employee approached them as they hesitantly browsed around the store.
“Is this your first time visiting our store?”
She glanced at Song Ha-Eun with admiration before turning to Kwon Oh-Jin with a mischievous smirk.
“We have a fitting room here if you’d like to try something on.”
Song Ha-Eun flinched and turned to the employee.
“Excuse me? You mean... the cosplay outfits?”
“Yes.”
“But—”
“I highly recommend the police uniform! My boyfriend loves it when I wear it.”
Song Ha-Eun’s ears perked up.
“Really?”
The employee’s eyes sparkled as she guided Song Ha-Eun toward the cosplay section.
“Having a few of these will come in handy for things like roleplay.”
“R-Roleplay?”
“Yes! You know, stuff like, ‘You’re under arrest!’ That kind of thing.”
Song Ha-Eun swallowed hard as she stared at the scandalous outfits. The diverse collection featured a police uniform, a nurse outfit, and a maid's dress. They all had one thing in common. All of them showed excessive amounts of skin.
Her boyfriend likes it when she wears this kind of thing?
Song Ha-Eun stole a glance at Kwon Oh-Jin, who stood a little bit further away. She could see him pretending not to care and looking elsewhere, but she could tell he was listening in on their conversation.
Song Ha-Eun nodded with determined eyes. “I-I’ll try one on.”
“Great! One moment!”
The employee disappeared into the storage room and soon returned with a basket overflowing with cosplay outfits.
“You’re tall and have an amazing figure, so the police uniform will look great on you! Let’s see... We also have a school uniform and a Chinese dress! Try them all on!”
“A-All of these?”
“Yes! Oh, and we also have a dominatrix bondage outfit! Please try this one too!”
Pure excitement filled the employee’s face as she held out the basket. She genuinely wanted to see Song Ha-Eun wearing these outfits instead of just trying to sell something.
“H-How am I supposed to wear something like this?”
“Please, I’m begging you! You don’t have to show your boyfriend. Just let me see!”
“Who the hell even are you?!”
Song Ha-Eun was so flustered that she forgot to speak formally. The employee persistently held out the bondage outfit, but Song Ha-Eun grabbed the least revealing police uniform and dashed into the fitting room. The employee clicked her tongue in disappointment.
Bang!
“Haa. Haa.”
Song Ha-Eun took deep breaths after escaping into the fitting room. She gulped as she stared down at the police uniform in her hands.
Do guys really... like this kind of thing?
Even though it was less revealing, she hesitated when looking at the incredibly short skirt that could expose her butt at any moment.
“Alright. If it’s for Oh-Jin.”
After hesitating for a while, she made up her mind.
Up until now, she had only ever been on the receiving end. When she lost her sight due to the Thousand Curses Dragon, and when Cheon Do-Yoon kidnapped her. No, even long before that. In her life, as dark as the night sky, Kwon Oh-Jin was the only light.
Now.
A life without him was unimaginable. She didn’t even want to imagine it.
Wearing something like this won’t be enough to repay him, but...
She wanted to make him happy, even if it was just a little. She wanted to make him smile.
If he liked it, then wearing a revealing outfit or even acting out embarrassing roleplay didn’t seem like a big deal. She was willing to do far more than that for him.
Taking a deep breath, Song Ha-Eun changed into the outfit.
“Phew...”
She pulled on the black stockings, slipped into the ridiculously short skirt, and wore the top that exposed her cleavage. Lastly, she stepped into black high heels with an impractically high arch.
A real cop would lose their mind if they saw this.
The outfit had absolutely zero practicality.
“Miss, are you done changing?”
The employee’s voice, brimming with anticipation, came from outside.
“Ugh.”
Even if it was another woman, being looked at with such enthusiasm felt embarrassing. More than that, she didn’t like the idea of showing this outfit to anyone other than Kwon Oh-Jin.
Song Ha-Eun peeked out from the fitting room and called for him, “Oh-Jin, Oh-Jin.”
“Y-Yeah?”
Kwon Oh-Jin, who had been lingering nearby, flinched.
“Hurry up and get in here.”
“Are you crazy? You want me to go in there?”
“Quickly!”
He hesitated for a moment when Song Ha-Eun glared at him with wide eyes. Glancing around nervously, he reluctantly stepped inside the fitting room.
A heavy silence, almost like death itself, fell between them.
Song Ha-Eun awkwardly pulled down the hem of her skirt, which kept riding up.
She carefully asked, “S-So? How does it look?”
He didn’t need to ask what she meant. He swallowed hard and slowly lowered his gaze.
They were basically glued to each other in the small enclosed space. He looked at her outfit, which had been modified into something completely inappropriate for actual law enforcement. His honest reaction?
Fuck.
Did a missing leg really matter that much? It wasn’t like they couldn’t do it even if she didn’t have a leg. He could fix it later after leveling up in stars enough. Was there even a need to hold back—
“Aaaah!”
“Kyaaa! W-What the hell?! Why are you suddenly screaming?!”
The startled Song Ha-Eun stared at Kwon Oh-Jin, who was clutching his head like he was having a meltdown.
“Haa, haa. It’s... nothing.”
“You scared the hell out of me, you idiot.”
Song Ha-Eun sighed and glanced at him.
“So? How do I look?”
Kwon Oh-Jin forced his expression to stay neutral and answered. “Well... It looks okay, I guess.”
His response was so indifferent that he almost sounded uninterested, but...
This little bastard is so into this.
She had known him for over twenty years. He couldn’t fool her. Whenever he tried to hold himself back from something he really liked, he had a habit of twitching his left eye. Right now, his left eye was twitching like crazy.
Hehehe. If you like it, just say so instead of getting all embarrassed.
Suppressing a grin, Song Ha-Eun casually pressed her breasts against him.
“What part of it do you like the most?”
“Just. Everything.”
“I wanna hear you say each part specifically, in detail.”
Kwon Oh-Jin narrowed his eyes.
Damn it. She caught on.
“I’ll be waiting outside.”
“Oh? You don’t wanna see me try on the nurse outfit? There were a lot of cute ones over there.”
“That’s okay.”
If he saw any more, he felt like he really wouldn’t be able to hold back.
“Don’t be embarrassed.”
Watching him shut the door and leave, she grinned from ear to ear. It had been a long time since she had seen him so flustered.
This sure does work well.
She stood in front of the full-length mirror inside the fitting room and struck a few different poses. The top felt a little tight around her chest, making it uncomfortable, but—
“Alright.”
I’m buying it.
After changing back into her regular clothes and stepping out, she spotted the employee from earlier.
“Haa... I really wanted to see it too.” The employee sighed regretfully.
She approached Song Ha-Eun and flashed a sly smile with a suggestive glint in her eyes.
“So? It worked like a charm, didn’t it?”
Without a word, Song Ha-Eun simply gave her a firm thumbs-up.
The employee giggled and clapped in delight.
Clearing her throat for no reason, Song Ha-Eun made her way to the counter to pay.
“A-Ahem.”
By the time she paid and they stepped outside, the sky had turned completely dark.
“Where to next?” Song Ha-Eun asked.
“Let’s start heading back. We need to get ready to fly back to Korea tomorrow.”
“Oh, right.”
She had so much fun that she completely forgot about their return trip.
“Then, let’s just grab dinner before we go,” Song Ha-Eun said.
“Wait, I need to buy something.” Kwon Oh-Jin pulled out his phone and searched for a nearby supermarket.
She cocked her head.
“What do you need to buy?”
“Apples.”
“Huh?”
“I wanna get a box of high-quality apples.”
Now that their date was over, it was time to make Adam’s Apple.
