Chapter 176 - Idol Massage - 3

[MC POV]

After a while, Ryu Inah sneaked out of her dressing room.

I was looking at her with the front of her gown tied tightly.

Seeing her wary appearance, I smiled slightly and guided her to the massage bed.

"There's nothing to be that nervous about. It's just a procedure."

As she lay face down on her bed, I carefully untied the knot of her gown.

She flinched in surprise and shook her shoulders.

It seemed like she wasn't that used to contact with men.

─Beep

I played her classical music a little louder, so she wouldn't be embarrassed.

At the same time, when her gown was slightly lowered, her smooth and fair shoulder line was clearly revealed.

'Wow. Is this the inner life of an idol?'

Her skin was as beautiful as some kind of porcelain, and I can't see any of the common blemishes.

However, if I look or touch too explicitly from the beginning, it will only make her wary.

At first, I planned to build her trust by giving her a real massage.

"Are there places where you usually feel very uncomfortable?"

In response to my question, she pointed to her shoulder and said.

"My neck and shoulders feel a little stiff. Sometimes they feel tight."

"I see. Let me touch it for a moment."

Shoulder pain was a common ailment that plagued many in modern society.

However, her case had been rather unique. Due to her large, developed chest in comparison to her petite frame, the strain on her shoulders had been inevitable.

─Kouuuk

When I pressed her trapezius muscle with my thumb, she let out a faint groan.

I immediately took my hand away and asked her.

"Your shoulders are very tight. Do you usually do some stretching?"

"… Stretching? I always do it before practice."

"Other than practice?"

"…."

"Haha. I'm not saying anything. But you really need to stretch. Especially with a curved body like yours, it puts a lot of strain on your neck and shoulders. If possible, it's a good idea to also do strength training."

Ryu Inah was a little embarrassed by those words.

She probably hadn't expected to hear this kind of nagging at a massage shop. After all, she was a VIP—who would dare say something so blunt?

 But I had no reason to bend to her will.

There was no problem even if I cut her off right away using abusive language.

Moreover, it was true that I was worried about her neck health as someone who had been exercising.

"If you have time, try Pilates. There are limits to short-term correction or massage."

"… Yes."

She answered halfheartedly, as if she didn't really want to respond.

Later, after training her thoroughly, I planned to force her to exercise.

'Of course, I have to focus on the massage now.'

I lightly sprinkled some oil on Ryu Inah's shoulders and began to apply it gently.

Even though her muscles were very tight, the texture was very soft.

The chewy texture, like some kind of glutinous rice cake, was quite addictive.

"If you are in any pain, please tell me right away."

"… I understand."

─Knead… Knead…

Fortunately, she didn't seem to have any suspicions yet.

She slowly releases her strength from her body, leaving her shoulder to me.

I naturally massaged her fascia, working to relieve her tense shoulders. As I applied pressure, her upper body began to tremble slightly.

Thanks to this, I could see a glimpse of her crushed side breast beyond her collarbone.

'Oh. The G cup really feels new every time I see it.'

She had a voluptuous tits volume that will make anyone's mouth water.

However, I tried to ignore it and focused on the massage.

It was still too early to feel her tits.

"… Aahh.. Tsk… Mmmm."

As I applied pressure, a faint moan escaped from between her lips. Judging by the cute frown between her eyebrows, she seemed to be in a bit of pain.

I paused the message for a moment and asked her.

"Are you in a lot of pain? Should I ease it a little?"

When I asked, she quickly shook her head. It seemed the sound she made was simply because it felt good.

"Oh, no. It's bearable."

"Is that so? I'm glad. Skin care is the main focus, but your shoulders are a lot tight, so I'm trying to loosen them up a bit. If it's uncomfortable, please let me know at any time."

As I pretended to care and subtly condescended, her attitude became a little more favorable.

"You can take it easy because I can tolerate it."

And then Ryu Inah completely releases her strength from her shoulders.

Thanks to this, it felt like giving her a massage became much easier.

I massaged her cervical spine and shoulders and naturally moved on to her back muscles.

As a result, her gown went down a little more, but she didn't seem to care.

"Your back is also very stiff. If your back muscles become weak, round shoulders or a turtle neck may worsen. Daily care is important for a pretty body shape."

I occasionally nagged her, and Ryu Inah would pretend to listen. She gave her usual polite response.

"… Do you also exercise a lot?"

I smiled brightly at her question and nodded.

"Of course. Massage requires strength and stamina. Unless something special happens, I do it without skipping it."

She slowly turned her head and glanced at my body.

Then she smiled mischievously and told her joke.

"Are you scared? Do you think women won't like you if you are too muscular?"

Maybe it was her way of getting back at me for the nagging, but her smile was so adorable.

 I couldn't help but smile back and respond to Ryu Inah's joke.

Of course, my reply was completely sincere.

"No way. Everyone liked me?"

"Oh, sir. Do you have a girlfriend?"

As expected, her tension changes when she talks about my love life.

It was Ryu Inah, a 22-year-old who was very interested in such things.

"Of course. I have a girlfriend."

"Awesome. So does your girlfriend also like muscular men?"

"Hmm, I wouldn't say that's quite it. It just felt like we naturally started dating because we get along so well. What about you, Ina? Are you in a relationship?"

After asking that on purpose, I hurriedly covered my lips as if I had just said something taboo.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I was so excited that I was rude. I did something unnecessary to an idol."

Then Ryu Inah smiled and waved her hand.

"It's okay. If someone hears it, they'll think I'm some kind of world star."

"Isn't this a sensitive issue?"

"What do you think? It's not even a broadcast. And honestly, I'm proud of it, so it doesn't matter. I don't plan on meeting anyone while I'm working."

"Wow, you are not popular for nothing. I'm sure the fans will really like it."

"I guess so. I feel like I can practice with some peace of mind."

"I think it's kind of amazing. Normally, at your age, people would be very interested in dating. Should I say you are mature?

"… It's not that I'm not interested. I'm just restraining myself out of consideration for the fans."

"Then that's even greater? It's not easy to suppress your interests or desires. If it's for someone else, it's even greater."

She seemed to be in a good mood after receiving lip service along with a relaxing massage.

With a happy smile on her lips, she seemed to be enjoying her current comfort.

"Ah. You're giving me too much credit. Do you have a manual or something?"

"Haha. It's not a manual. I'm serious. Still, I'll refrain if it's burdensome. Personally, I'm also a fan of your work, so I said a lot."

I lowered her gown a little further along her back.

She moved slowly, following the instructions, as if her heart was gradually opening up.

Here's the revised version:

She also noticed that her gown was now mostly removed, but she didn't seem to be on guard. Curious, she continued the conversation to see if it would stay interesting.

"Are you also my fan? Do you usually listen to my songs?"

"Of course. To be honest, I listen to your solo song quite often. Purple Life—that's my favorite."

I deliberately said a song that wasn't famous.

It was a song included in her second album, and it was a quiet, self composed song that captured the emotions of the human Ryu Inah, not Raina.

Of course, it wasn't a song I usually enjoy listening to.

It was just something I studied in advance for conversation.

But it will feel different from her perspective.

There were many of her famous dance songs, but I had to mention Purple Life, which contains her story.

She asked with a curious expression.

"… Purple Life? That's surprising. That one didn't get very good reviews. There are a lot of better songs, right?"

"Well, you don't always listen to a song just for the melody. I really liked Ina's lyrics. There's something comforting about honestly expressing those lonely feelings. Everyone goes through that at some point. It's not anything particularly difficult, but you just feel that emptiness and isolation. When I hear it during those moments, it warms my heart."

Although I was simply reciting what someone had posted, she seemed quite moved by my review.

Most people just compliment her appearance or singing skills but don't say things like that.

She looked away and smiled shyly, as if she was embarrassed for no reason.

"True. It's not like I'm a girl. This is the first time I've met someone who likes Purple Life."

"Huh? That's possible. If you're a Reina fan, you can't help but like it."

"The lip service at this place is perfect. I'll give it a 5-star review."

"Haha. Then, I will also leave 5 points for Ina's song."

Here's the revised version:

I joked with her and casually placed my hand on her waist. Her back was exposed, but she didn't seem to mind at all. Ryu Inah seemed to enjoy the conversation and smoothly steered it back to my love life.

"So, how many days have you been dating? It seems like you've been dating for a long time."

"Really? Actually, it hasn't been that long. It's been about two or three months now."

"Really? You've been dating recently?"

"Yes. If you're curious, can I tell you about our relationship? We met in a very dramatic way."

At my suggestion, Ryu Inah nodded with her curious eyes.

Her eyes were shining like a girl listening to her masseuse's story of her first love.

"Yes! I want to listen!"

"Okay. Then, I'll tell you from when we first met."

I exaggerated the more violent or sensational parts, turning them into a beautifully told story. What started as a tale full of flirtation and desire suddenly transformed into a fateful encounter, like a scene straight out of a drama.

However, the innocent 22-year-old girl, who had no way of knowing this, concentrated on the story with her cheeks stained.

Here's the revised version:

As the tension in the story built up and Choi Aran and I became one, the scene was cut off perfectly, like the end of a dramatic episode. When I glanced at Ryu Inah's face, I noticed it was flushed.

"Haha. What do you think? Was it fun? The next part's been edited to be 18+."

Ryu Inah pouted her lips with a disappointed expression.

And then she answered in an inaudible voice.

"… I'm also over 18 years old."

I heard this but pretended not to hear it and asked back.

"Huh? What did you just say?"

Then she shook her head in surprise.

"Oh, no. Nothing."

Her face turns even redder.Her body was slowly becoming hot, as if the aphrodisiac effect of the oil was spreading.

So I took off her gown a little more.
