Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

I could hear their complaints and criticism of the organizers' bizarre plans, as well as sounds of chewing as they greedily ate the food. The atmosphere became even more lively as they drank through the evening.

The students were all enthusiastically sharing their experiences with each other.

The professor had left earlier due to exhaustion. He instructed me to look after the students before he left.

Watching them laugh and chat so animatedly, I couldn't help but lament that I might be getting old. Looking at their youthfulness and exuberance, I felt a little out of place.

I didn't like to eat meat at night as it made it difficult for me to fall asleep. So, I only grilled a small plate of vegetables and dipped them in a sauce that I made. I was eating them absentmindedly.

Even though I followed Colin's recipe for the sauce, the taste and texture couldn't be compared to what he made for me. Things were just not the same without him around. Even the taste of the food wasn't quite right.

When could I return home? After a few days apart from him, I started to miss him.

As I was lost in thought, Colin's video call came through.

The restaurant was so noisy that I could hardly hear anything at all. Plus, my headphones were not with me. I could only turn on the speaker and lean in close to the phone to listen.

I could only pray that he wouldn't say anything inappropriate that would give his students a chance to tease him.

However, that was just the way the universe worked. The more you feared something might happen, the more likely it would happen.

Just as I prayed that Colin would say something ordinary, like routinely expressing his concern for me, his words brought the celebration in the restaurant to a climax.

"Colin."
