Chapter 5.1 (2/2)

“It’s nothing. It’s none of your business anyway. After all, it is you who’s making me feel confused.”

“Hmm… I can tell you a sure way to eliminate all your problems.”

She turned towards him and glared.

“You mean doing something that’s hot and heavy?”

“Exactly.”

He grinned widely. Giving him an annoyed look, Sunghee turned away. When the elevator door opened, she quickly walked to her apartment door. Sejin followed her from behind leisurely. He asked teasingly,

“So you know what I’m talking about?”

“What is it? No, I don’t want to hear your dirty talk. Don’t say it.”

Sunghee shook her head and unlocked her front door. Sejin followed her inside as if he was entering his own home. He watched her throwing her jacket and purse on the floor as he replied,

“Dirty talk? What are you talking about? What did you think I was gonna say?”

“Isn’t it obvious? Considering what you did to me in the office washroom recently… You called ‘that’ a sure way to cure drowsiness, right?”

When she glared at him, Sejin grinned shamelessly. He took off his glasses and put them in his shirt pocket.

“But you liked it too, Sunghee.”

“I admit that no woman would dislike a man who is skilled in bed. Now that I think about it, this really isn’t fair at all.”

She sat down on the sofa and rested her legs on the coffee table. Sejin sat down next to her and asked,

“What isn’t?”

“When a man is skilled in bed, people think he must be an attractive guy who must’ve had a lot of girlfriends. Such a man is affectionately called a playboy. And no woman would dislike a man like that. But if a woman is good at sex, men treat her like she is a whore. An easy woman or a ‘slut’. Don’t you think this is unfair? Women have the right to enjoy sex just as men do. And women are obviously smart enough to learn to be good at it. Isn’t it better to be a seductive woman who knows how to enjoy herself than a girl who has no techniques and is naive?”

When she turned towards him angrily, Sejin frowned and raised his hands as if to surrender.

“I didn’t say a thing, so why are you getting upset at me?”

“I don’t need to hear it to know you’re thinking it. All men are the same.”

“But having lots of experience doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get good at it. Also, you could become skilled even if you haven’t had many lovers. For example, you could’ve had just one lover all your life, but  you practiced a lot with that person to get better. Or maybe a person can get skilled by learning from books.”

Sejin grinned and continued,

“Did you know that boys in all-boy school practice by kissing each other?”

“Huh? Seriously?”

When Sunghee’s eyes widened in surprise, Sejin chuckled.

“It’s partly true. I’ve seen it happen. Don’t girls do that too?”
