Chapter 288. Contamination
I wanted to take things further with Mina, even have sex.
Unfortunately, time didn’t allow it, so I tidied up. The group soon woke up, and we prepared to depart once more. If all went well, we’d reach DMC Station today; tomorrow at the latest.
As Mina got ready to leave, she wore a troubled expression. Watching her face, I felt a little uneasy.
*I thought it was a good trade. We’d exchanged and drunk each other’s breast milk, so wasn’t it a fair deal?*
*Could I have been mistaken?*
The unsettling thought that Mina might have genuinely rejected me began to creep in.
*Was my assumption that she enjoyed coercive play just my own delusion? I found myself blaming Soyoung for no reason. After all, it was just yesterday that she’d put ideas into my head. Perhaps even that was my misunderstanding.*
What Soyoung had said wasn’t a concrete or explicit statement.
“Ooh? What could this beee…?”
“My ears hurt. Stop yelling into them.”
Euna and Soyoung sat side-by-side at the Dining table. They were eating cereal, softened in water, that was nearing its Expiration date. Mina, having drunk her fill of the breast milk she produced, was already packing. Siyoung also finished his meal faster than the two women and was packing his belongings.
I was putting a Harness-like device on Schneider.
“No, Euna. Look at this. The picture is really weird!”
“I told you to stop yelling.”
Schneider seemed to be cursing me with their eyes. They hadn’t had anything cumbersome on their body until now, so they must have been displeased that I was trying to put a Harness on them. Ignoring their complaints, I finally managed to put the Harness on. Euna had created this customized equipment specifically for Schneider. It was made from processed snake skin, similar to the Snake Suit she had crafted in Choguljae. This Harness was designed to protect Schneider’s heart.
