I was dumbfounded.
I had never imagined that Heena's parents would come too.
How could I have expected this?
Everyone else, except for me, seemed to know about it and naturally made their way inside, finding their seats.
Since our parents had already communicated over the phone, like when we went to the beach, there was hardly any awkwardness.
Yoonjung noona seemed to be already considered part of our family.
"Oh, having three sons must be so reassuring~"
"Reassuring? Heena is so smart and responsible, you must not have any worries."
"Our kids don't have much charm... If only I had a son like Yeonho~"
My mom was unusually friendly, engaging in somewhat embarrassing conversations with the ladies.
"Our Heena always causes trouble..."
"Not at all. Yeonho always comes to our place to study and learn. We should be the ones grateful."
"Grateful? Oh, this is some new whiskey I got. How about we have a drink and talk about the kids..."
Drinking in broad daylight?
Anyway, as my dad and uncle greeted each other, the parents gathered around the table in the kitchen.
And the rest of us.
"Sunhoo, help me connect this."
"There are so many cables."
"You only need to connect two to the TV. And do you have another TV?"
"You guys think of playing games as soon as you get together? Really... Jeongwoo! Why are you heading there!"
"Game."
"Do you want to die?!"
My brothers and noona were also gathered around the TV, noisily connecting the gaming console. Watching them, it seemed like I was the only one not adjusting to the situation.
What's with this warm and cheerful atmosphere, like relatives visiting for a holiday?
Caught off guard by the unexpected turn of events, I was still trying to process it all when Heena quietly sat beside me and nudged me.
"Yeonho, what's wrong?"
"Was I the only one who didn't know about this?"
"I thought mom had told you, so I didn't say anything."
"I had no idea at all."
This wasn't just any surprise. Why didn't anyone tell me?
Lost for words and standing there dazed, Heena gently kissed my cheek. Boldly, right in front of both families.
Startled, I looked around and whispered softly.
"Not now...!"
"Everyone knows about us anyway..."
"Still, in front of the family, it's a bit..."
Especially in front of our parents or Heena's parents, it would be really embarrassing to be caught like this.
Heena's parents might have heard a lot about us, but hearing is different from seeing.
"You did it in front of my brother."
"That was an unintended major accident..."
"I liked it though."
I still dont bring up Heeseong hyung and that topic. It's just too awkward for both of us.
Anyway.
"It feels like we have relatives visiting. The whole atmosphere of the house is..."
"Don't you think it's somewhat fitting?"
"What?"
Heena leaned in close with a smile on her face, a hint of allure in her expression.
"In a few years, we will be family, after all."
Her words weren't wrong! I had thought the same!
"But how did this happen?"
"My parents thought it would be a good idea to meet up since my brother and I were hanging out together anyway."
"Hmm.. that makes sense.."
"So, I contacted your mom and asked if it was okay."
"My mom is really cool, you know."
"It's like a pre-marriage meeting."
"......"
Thats a joke, right? Arent pre-marriage meetings supposed to be more formal?
I wasnt sure, but those people taking a sip of whiskey already couldnt be discussing that, right?
Overwhelmed by the rapid progression of events, I felt a cold sweat running down my back when a voice called us from the living room.
"Stop playing by yourselves over there, come join us~"
Seems like they had finished setting up the game, and everyone was looking our way.
With those eyes on us, I stood up with a resigned attitude. Maybe it was acceptance.
Even if they had told me beforehand, there wasnt much I could have done. It felt a bit early, but ultimately, it was what I wanted too.
I sighed quietly and extended my hand to Heena, who was sitting beside me.
Well, even though unexpected guests had arrived, we had gathered to have fun, so we should just enjoy ourselves.
"Heena and I are on the same team, so just split the rest accordingly."
"Thats what he said~ Please be nice to us!"
"Oh~ Jeongwoo, us too?"
"Separate me and this guy, please. It's a request."
"Heyyyy!!!!"

Putting aside the minor issues for now.
We all gathered in the living room in small groups to enjoy the game. We played Mario Kart, which is perfect for groups.
Heeseong hyung even brought an extra Switch to accommodate our number of players, along with several extra Joy-Cons. Not just that, but with so many guys gathered, the energy was incredible.
After moving the TV from the bedroom to the living room, we set it up for local play so that we could all game together.
Thanks to that, the six of us were fully immersed in the game, making a lot of noise.
"Heena!!! You're not going to use that on me, are you?!"
"Maybe~ Theres something I want you to do for me right now."
"I think I know what it is!! Not now, later, I'll do it later!"
"Hmph, later is not good."
Heena, who had hardly ever played games before, was surprisingly adept at controlling the kart after a few rounds. I hadn't played this game before either, but I had some experience with gaming, and she was almost doing better than me.
And then, my girlfriend, with her astonishing skills, mercilessly launched a turtle shell at me.
I was shot down, helplessly watching my place plummet to the very bottom.
Frozen in shock, Heeseong hyung burst into loud laughter at my expression.
"Ahahahaha!!! Bye-bye, Han Yeonho! You know the rules, right? Last place gets a penalty!!"
"What?! Since when was that a rule?! Youre barely ahead of me!"
"What's that? I can't hear you from way down there... Huh? Hey, Heena, why are you stopping? Why are you just holding that shell and not moving?!"
"Don't tease Yeonho."
"Hey!! You wrecked him and now you're defending him?!"
Another turtle shell from Heena sent Heeseong hyung crashing down.
-Boom! Even Heeseong hyung, who had been laughing happily, was taken down.
Justice was served.
"Buahahahaha!!! What was that about last place?!"
"Seriously!! She destroys her boyfriend and then attacks me too?!"
"Yeonho~ Lets go in together~"
"Right! We're too far behind to catch up with those guys anyway, let's just go in together!"
Thanks to that, Heeseong hyung ended up in the last place, with Heena and I following closely behind.
"The lower places are really bad."
"Tell me about it."
Sunhoo hyung and Jeongwoo hyung were quietly switching between first and second place.
"Why does Jeongwoo always dodge so well?! Die!"
Yoonjung noona was relentlessly targeting Jeongwoo hyung right behind him, but he skillfully evaded her attacks.
In the end, jostling back and forth until the finish line, the final ranks excluding the CPUs were Jeongwoo hyung, Yoonjung noona, Sunhoo hyung, Heena, me, and Heeseong hyung.
Noona burst out in frustration for not being able to overtake Jeongwoo hyung, despite her last-minute surge to second place.
"I should have smashed his head in...!"
That's pretty intense.
But then.
"Where did the guy who said last place gets a penalty go~?"
"It's not fair to do that in the middle of the game. Let's make a penalty for the next game."
Responding playfully to my teasing, Heeseong hyung showed no shame.
Despite his ridiculousness, I let it slide, knowing there's no need to take the game too seriously.
"Penalty? Oh, I have something for that!"
And only after the game did Yoonjung noona seem to register those words. She clapped her hands and dashed into Jeongwoo hyung's room.
Soon, she emerged holding something in her hand. Red and white clothes that stood out.
Huh? Red clothes for Christmas?
"This! Santa cosplay! I originally brought it for Yeonho, but how about using it for a penalty?!"
"Oh~ Sounds good. Let's do it. Hyung and Sunhoo, you okay with that?"
"Yeah. I won't lose anyway."
"Me too."
"I just learned it was for me. Whats all this? Where did you even get that?"
While the hyungs nonchalantly agreed, I stood there, dumbfounded by this lightning bolt out of the blue.
Beside me, Heena unusually spoke in a firm tone.
"Let's start, shall we? I'm ready."
Saying so, she sat upright, clutching the Joy-Con tightly. Her eyes were blazing with determination.
It was clear to anyone that she was resolved to make me wear that costume.
"Look, Heena. Maybe we can team up and..."
I shivered and tried to suggest an alliance in the face of her fiery spirit.
"We should play fair and square."
That didnt work at all.
Well, it's just a game. I only need to avoid being the last among five players, right? It's nothing.
"Alright, let's start the penalty game! Everyone ready? This is a single round!"
With those words, a new game began, but unlike the previous round, it wasn't a fierce free-for-all.
It was just unfair bullying.
"What?! Sunhoo hyung, what are you doing?!"
"Ah~ Just my luck, Han Yeonho is right in front of me. Sorry~"
"Sorry for what? You intentionally came up behind me!"
"Oops, my hand slipped... Oh no! There's Yeonho in front!"
"Heeseong hyung, stop playing dirty!!"
"Heeseong, hurry up and throw it! I'm going too!!"
"Throwing and getting out of the way~ Noona, come in~"
"No......"
They were ganging up on me, blatantly and without subtlety.
Even as we were distracted and hardly moving, Jeongwoo hyung and Heena had lapped us and come back around to my side.
Then, they mercilessly rammed into my cute Luigi.
"Please! Hyung! Don't do this!! Heena!!"
"Get off, fall down."
"Yeonho! Just let go and fall off!"
"......"
After confirming my fall, the two of them waited near the point of return to hit me again. I just gave up cleanly.
How could I not end up last?

Reading the comments, I found out that even minors are treated as adults if they get married?
Gosh, if only I had known that 30 chapters ago..! An unimaginable law!
