Chapter 12: Morning After

The sound of Mr. Lee's voice and footsteps seemed to come from a distance, as Jaekyung slowly came to terms with the situation. Esther stirred, her eyes fluttering open, and she looked up at Jaekyung, a hint of confusion in her gaze. Jaekyung's face burned with embarrassment as he tried to untangle himself from Esther's grasp. "Good morning, son," Mr. Lee said, his voice low. "I see you're... enjoying your roommate's company." He chuckled and turned to head downstairs. Jaekyung's father clearing his throat and walking away seemed to be the cue for Jaekyung and Esther to scramble out of bed. They quickly got dressed and made their way downstairs for breakfast. As they sat down at the table, Jaekyung couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. What had happened during the night? And how was he going to face Esther now? The tension between them was palpable, but they both tried to act normal, chatting and laughing as they ate their breakfast. After breakfast, Mr. Lee stood up and stretched. "I'm heading out for a bit, kids. You two have a good day." With that, he walked out the door, leaving Jaekyung and Esther alone. As soon as Mr. Lee was gone, Jaekyung let out a sigh of relief. He thought he was finally free from the awkwardness of the morning. But little did he know, his day was just about to get a lot more interesting. Esther got up from the table and began to clear the dishes. Jaekyung stood up to help her, but as he reached for a plate, his hand accidentally brushed against hers. A spark of electricity ran through his body, and he quickly pulled his hand back, trying to compose himself. As the day went on, Jaekyung found himself getting more and more agitated. Every time he tried to move around the house, he seemed to bump into Esther. She would fall on him, or he would accidentally touch her, and each time, his body would respond in ways he couldn't control. By the afternoon, Jaekyung was at his wit's end. He couldn't take it anymore. He excused himself and went to his room, locking the door behind him. As he lay on his bed, he couldn't help but think about the events of the morning. He had been so careful, so controlled, but now he was paying the price. His body was throbbing with desire, and he knew he couldn't hold out much longer. In a moment of desperation, Jaekyung gave in to his urges. He began to masturbate, trying to relieve the tension that had been building up all day. But as he reached his climax, he heard his father's voice outside his door. "Jaekyung, I need to talk to you about something." Jaekyung's heart sank as he realized he had been caught. He quickly pulled up his pants and opened the door, trying to act nonchalant. But it was too late. His father had already seen him, and the look on his face was one of disappointment and concern. "Jaekyung, I think it's time we had a talk about boundaries and respect in the house," he said, his voice firm but gentle. Jaekyung nodded, feeling a sense of shame wash over him. He knew he had crossed a line, and now he had to face the consequences. As he looked at his father, he knew that his life was about to change in ways he couldn't even imagine.
