The Guide’s Condition

At five years old, Choi Taehun was identified as a Guide, but until the age of twenty-eight, he had never found his Esper. One day, at the request of his younger sibling, he attended the autograph session of top star Ji Gwanyeong—and that was when he met him for the first time…

“I’ll have to make sure you’re the one to say it first, Choi Taehun.”

The Guide’s face turned bright red. As if it wasn’t embarrassing enough that everyone at the center already knew he had been held in the arms of another man… What? Cry and beg? His body and mind completely out of sync?

Choi Taehun suddenly pulled away from the man who had embraced him the night before, shouting in frustration. His voice, slightly cracked, only made him blush even more, but he couldn’t hold back from yelling.

“I’m telling you, I will never, never, *never* be gay!”

“Sure, go right ahead.”

“This is just for necessity! You’re an Esper, and I’m a Guide, that’s all!”

“Yes, yes.”

Ji Gwanyeong replied with a charming smile hanging on his lips. Still blushing furiously, Choi Taehun gritted his teeth and glared at the shameless man smiling so brazenly. His back, where Ji Gwanyeong’s name seemed to be engraved, burned with heat.
