(EP-81.2) Fight #7
081 – Fight Of The Tigers #7
“You’ve worked hard. You can rest for today.”
“Hmm, I had a lot of fun.”
I dropped Mirna to Room 6.
Mirna was surprisingly bright, as if she really enjoyed herself.
Meanwhile, I was anxious and uncomfortable.
Knowing that Elga would be in Room 5, the one right next to Mirna’s, was so heartbreaking that I couldn’t calm myself down.
Dalgak, jeolkeodeok-.
When the door to Mirna’s room finally closed, I crept to the next room and knocked on Elga’s door.
“... Elga-nim, it’s me, Theo.”
I softly said, in a voice that only Elga could hear. Though, there were no signs of someone from the inside.
Seureureuk-.
When I turned the doorknob, it was surprisingly not locked.
“Excuse me.”
I quickly went into Elga’s room lest anyone were to see me. Her room was cool, like an air conditioned office.
Turned out, her window was wide open. The wind blew her curtains to and fro.
Knock-knock, rattle, rattling-.
I closed the noisy window and headed towards the big bump under the blanket. Elga should be there.
“Umm, Elga-nim.”
“.......”
“I can see your feet outside the blanket.”
Seureuk.
Hearing this, Elga immediately retracted her feet inside.
She was like a snail hiding under her shell. It almost made me laugh.
“How are you, Elga-nim? Did you get hurt from the duel with Mirna-nim?”
“.......”
Elga didn’t answer. The silence was more terrifying than all the swear words Elga had thrown at me combined.
So I tucked my palms under the blanket, when...
“Aak-!”
Elga suddenly bit my hand like a dog! No, a lion!
Shaken, I hastily pulled my hand out. I could clearly see Elga’s teeth marks.
“Blood, there is blood!”
I was naturally lying. However, the lie had worked as the blanket was lifted and I could feel a pair of blue eyes peering into my palm.
“... You aren’t bleeding!”
“Of course, I was lying. So, Elga-nim, are you in a bad mood?”
“I don’t know, you idiot... Go away!”
Didn’t it feel like Elga’s mood was slowly getting better? I poked the side of the big bump on the blanket.
“Fuhuhu-.”
“You’re laughing now?”
“... Go away!”
“I was wrong. Please don’t be angry.”
“Wrong? What did you do wrong?”
What did I do wrong?
