I bit my lip and forced myself to say, "Well, not as bad as your skills these past years."
His expression changed at my words.
He straightened up, the lazy posture gone, and snatched the bag from my hand. He took one look at the colorful condoms inside.
I saw his pupils dilate and contract, his ears slowly turning red.
Why pretend, I thought.
Just as I was about to leave, a girl peeked out from behind Eric.
She only hesitated for a second when she saw me, then flashed a smirk, her eyes flitting between me and Eric.
Her lips curled into a playful grin.
It wasn't until I noticed the ring on her finger that a sour feeling welled up in my chest.
Before I could even force a bitter smile, she asked Eric.
"Who is this woman?"
Eric looked indifferent and casually moved his gaze to the girl's face.
"Just a delivery girl."
Back in my own room, I peeled off the rain-soaked clothes I'd been wearing.
I had rushed back from another city to attend my best friend's wedding, barely making it on time.
The rain started as soon as my flight landed.
When I arrived at the hotel, I saw a delivery guy take a nasty fall, and without much thought, I offered to deliver the order for him.
