“Tae-Woo, do you want to take a break at the center? It’s late, so I think it’s okay to sleep for a day while being a guide.”

So-Won was sincere, but Tae-Woo shook his head.

“No, I’ll go home so you can relax.”

“But…”

“I’m fine. I’m leaving.”

Tae-Woo answered calmly and started the car.

So-Won, who was nervously watching the scene, hurriedly opened his mouth.

“Wait, I’ll drive!”

Tae-Woo paused.

So-Won prevented the car from leaving and sighed a small relief.

“Do you know how to drive…?”

So-Won became bitter for no reason when Tae-Woo responded as if he didn’t know.

Whenever this happened, So-Won realized that Tae-Woo died and So-Won returned to the past so Tae-Woo wouldn’t know it yet.

Even after seeing So-Won’s license, Tae-Woo hesitated for a long time without getting off the driver’s seat.

When So-Won got out of the car first, opened the driver’s door, and urged Tae-Woo, Tae-Woo rose as if he was reluctant.

“Ugh…”

As soon as Tae-Woo stepped on the ground, Tae-Woo’s body shook violently.

So-Won was surprised and hurriedly helped Tae-Woo.

“Tae-Woo, are you okay?”

“I’m sorry. It’s all right now.”

Tae-Woo quickly regained his composure, perhaps because he was only weak for a while.

So-Won, who tried to support a large body, seemed to be having a hard time, so Tae-Woo refused the help, but So-Won took Tae-Woo to the passenger seat without loosening his arm.

So-Won, who returned to the driver’s seat, suddenly felt Tae-Woo’s eyes looking at him.

When So-Won turned his head, he made eye contact with Tae-Woo, who was looking at him.

As expected, Tae-Woo didn’t look well.

After seeing the staggering figure, all So-Won could think about was getting home quickly and guiding him, but before that, there was one thing to check.

“Tae-Woo, you still need guidance right?”

“Yes.”

So-Won didn’t know it would be so helpful to be able to guide by just being in the same room.

The fact that the matching rate has risen significantly was welcome again.

The car drove on a dark night road.

The highway to Seoul was quiet after midnight.

So-Won glanced at Tae-Woo, who was staring straight ahead with an expressionless face while driving, and checked his condition.

So-Won was sure he was guiding, but he couldn’t concentrate on driving because he was nervous.

So-Won ran fast and arrived home earlier than he expected.

Tae-Woo, who got out of the car, did not stumble as before, perhaps because he had a little guiding on the way or because of a short break.

So-Won wanted to guide Tae-Woo right away, but when he saw Tae-Woo’s body with the monster’s blood,

So-Won said, “Would you like to wash up first? I’ll guide you after that.”

Tae-Woo nodded and entered the room.

So-Won confirmed and headed to the bathroom in the hallway.

When So-Won saw the wide bathtub, he felt an urge to soak, but he shook his head right away and poured hot water on his body.

So-Won couldn’t afford to waste time on things like this.

Today, So-Won was going to try a different guiding than usual.

It was a decision he made while waiting for Tae-Woo at the center.

Tae-Woo, whose condition worsened after visiting the gate, needed intensive guidance as the doctor in charge said.

However, neither Tae-Woo nor himself was ready to do such a guided tour right away, but if it’s enough to put the skin together….

“Tae-Woo, I’m going in.”

So-Won, who finished showering quickly, returned to Tae-Woo’s room.

Tae-Woo was still washing up, but he was not seen in the room.

So-Won first lay in bed and listened beyond the quiet bathroom while waiting for Tae-Woo.

It was just guiding, but he was already nervous because it would be a little different from what he’s been doing.

Tae-Woo came out of the bathroom while So-Won was trying to catch his breath and calm down.

The monster’s blood on Tae-Woo’s body had disappeared.

The condition did not seem to have improved as it could not wash away the violent wavelengths.

So-Won rose up.

So-Won tried to get out of bed, but he stopped in the middle and became in a clumsy position, but he didn’t notice it because he was so nervous.

“Tae-Woo… I heard from the guide training…”

So-Won coughed in vain.

He’s thirsty for some reason.

So-Won wanted to take a sip of lukewarm water, but he couldn’t see anything to drink around him.

So-Won cleared his dry throat and continued.

“When you hug and guide, it’s better for your skin to touch each other. They said that it’s less efficient to do it with clothes on, so take it off…. Since you went to the gate today, I’d like to hug and guide you. I mean, um….” So-Won trailed off, mumbling the last part.

His voice became smaller and smaller as he seemed to be making excuses.

“If you don’t mind… Why don’t we take off our clothes when we start the guiding?”

So-Won didn’t lie at all, but after he finished speaking, he didn’t know why it felt like such a suspicious suggestion.

So-Won smiled awkwardly at Tae-Woo.

Tae-Woo, who had been silent for a while, opened his mouth.

“Clothes.. You mean taking it all off…?” Tae-Woo asked.

“No, of course not all!”

Tae-Woo recalled his body he saw while washing up.

It was in a pretty good state compared to the fact that the blood vessels didn’t swell and he used his abilities inside the gate.

The reason was easy to see.

It was thanks to So-Won’s guidance.

Thanks to So-Won’s guidance right before entering the gate, Tae-Woo was able to get this far.

Even the blackened blood vessels came back to the temple with time.

It was clear that if So-Won had been guiding body to body as he said, it would have subsided sooner.

“I’m sorry.” Tae-Woo apologized.

However, Tae-Woo could not accept So-Won’s proposal.

“What? Why, why?”

“I don’t need guidance that much. So you don’t have to overdo it.”

Tae-Woo looked at the back of his hand, which turned black, and quietly hid it behind him.

Tae-Woo knew well how he looked and it is not a good thing for So-Won to see.

This has happened before.

The gate that Tae-Woo visited for the first time after meeting So-Won.

At that time, the condition was worse than now, and it made So-Won go through all sorts of things, but Tae-Woo couldn’t plant bad memories again.

At this rate, So-Won would be unhappy.

Like Si-Hyuk said.

“But… you said last time that there was a lack of guidance, but…”

So-Won blurred the end of the sentence.

Tae-Woo said it was okay, but it was hard to believe what he said.

“Tae-Woo, are you doing this just in case I’m scared?”

So-Won remembered the words of Si-Hyuk that he met during the day.

Once So-Won felt the same wavelength as the calm and soft scent, So-Won could see how serious Tae-Woo’s condition was even if he didn’t know much about guiding.

Even now because he had been to the gate, Tae-Woo’s wavelength had become sharper than usual.

“…….”

Seeing the late reply, So-Won was convinced.

Even 8 years ago, there were often times when Tae-Woo did not receive guidance from So-Won, who was frightened and trembling at the sight of him.

So-Won now knew that he didn’t asked to be guided because he, himself knew So-Won was afraid of him..

“ So-Won, I am really okay.”

The problem is that even after So-Won regressed to 8 years ago, he still showed that kind of appearance in front of Tae-Woo.

He no longer trembled or is scared of him, but it was clear that Tae-Woo still thought So-Won was scared of him.

“Well…”

So-Won thought for a moment and rolled his eyes.

First of all, So-Won felt he had to tell him that he wasn’t afraid of Tae-Woo.

“Tae-Woo, I… At first, I was a little nervous when I saw Tae-Woo, but now I’m not scared of you.”

So-Won felt sorry for Tae-Woo because Tae-Woo remembered the moment when So-Won looked at him shaking and completely frozen on the day of the guided examination.

If So-Won hadn’t been scared to see Tae-Woo from the beginning, Tae-Woo might not have act like this.

However, it was inevitable at that time because the fear had not completely disappeared.

“And the last time I saw Tae-Woo’s body in the private room, I’m not scared. The monster’s blood was just a little shocking.”

When So-Won encountered Tae-Woo in a serious condition in the private room, he felt scared only at the first moment when he checked his condition, and when he woke up the next day, So-Won felt nothing when he saw Tae-Woo’s naked body.

However, it was a little shocking that the liquid on hs body was the monster’s blood.

Suddenly, So-Won laughed quietly because he remembered how shocked he was to see the blood of a monster stained all over his body and when he wore Tae-Woo’s large clothes.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I remembered what happened that morning…”

While So-Won was talking, he suddenly burst out laughing and apologized to Tae-Woo in a hurry.

Tae-Woo still didn’t know what So-Won was thinking, but he felt like he was thinking about something.

“I just wanted to tell you that I’m not overdoing it anyway.”

“…All right, all I have to do is take off my top, right?”
