Chapter 1
강성의 여름밤은 후덥지근하고 습했으며, 공기 중에는 묘한 분위기가 감돌고 있었다.
란위에는 술을 많이 마셔서 현관문을 들어서자마자 소파에 앉았다. 눈을 감고 손으로 이마를 짚은 채, 얼굴에는 괴로운 표정이 역력했다.
나도 술을 좀 많이 마셔서 정신을 차리려고 애쓰며 물 한 잔을 따라 란위에 앞 테이블에 놓았다. "란 부장님, 물 좀 드시고 술 깨세요."
말하면서 주변을 둘러보니, 란위에의 집은 심플하면서도 고급스럽게 꾸며져 있었다. 벽 모퉁이 화분대에는 싱그러운 난초 한 화분이 놓여 있어 주인의 취향과 교양을 드러내고 있었다.
묘한 밤, 그리고 마음속으로 높디높은 여신 같은 그녀와 단둘이 있다니, 내 마음은 혼란스럽고 어리둥절했다.
란위에가 눈을 뜨고 물잔을 들었는데, 이상한 눈빛으로 나를 한 번 쳐다봤다.
란위에의 시선에 내 심장은 쿵쿵 뛰기 시작했고, 온몸의 혈류가 빨라졌다.
란위에는 아무 말 없이 눈을 내리깔고 물을 마시며, 몸이 살짝 떨렸다.
갑자기 나는 열등감이 느껴졌다. 차갑고 고귀한 미녀 상사 앞에서 내가 얼마나 보잘것없는지 실감했다.
잠시 침묵 후, 나는 내면의 동요와 충동을 억누르며 말했다. "란 부장님, 쉬세요."
란위에는 여전히 말이 없었고, 시선은 바닥을 뚫어지게 바라보더니 일어섰다. 몸이 몇 번 흔들리더니 침실 쪽으로 걸어갔다.
내가 막 돌아서려는 순간, 뒤에서 "퍽" 하는 소리가 들렸다. 돌아보니 란위에가 바닥에 쓰러져 있었다.
나는 서둘러 란위에를 부축해 소파에 앉히고, 자연스럽게 그녀 옆에 앉았다.
잠시 후, 란위에는 양손으로 얼굴을 가리고 고개를 숙인 채 몸을 떨기 시작하며 소리 없이 흐느꼈다.
란위에가 울고 있었다. 그것도 매우 슬프게, 마치 가슴 속에 큰 아픔을 품고 있는 것처럼.
나는 당황했다. 내 비너스 여신, 내 미녀 상사가 갑자기 왜 울고 있는 건지, 보기에 정말 마음이 아팠다.
나는 란위에를 어떻게 위로해야 할지 몰라 그저 그녀의 어깨를 토닥였다.
란위에는 아직 술이 깨지 않은 듯, 갑자기 내 무릎에 엎드려 계속해서 억눌린 흐느낌을 토해냈고, 어깨가 격렬하게 떨렸다.
순간, 내 온몸의 피가 빠르게 솟구치며 전율이 일었고, 란위에의 어깨를 토닥이던 손이 어느새 쓰다듬는 손길로 바뀌었다.
란위에의 울음소리는 가슴을 찢는 듯했다.
억제할 수 없는 충동이 밀려왔고, 나는 용기를 내어 갑자기 란위에의 몸을 끌어안았다. 그녀의 얼굴을 들어올리고 그녀의 섹시하고 뜨거운 입술에 키스했다...
란위에는 아직 취기에 휩싸인 듯 눈을 뜨지 않은 채, 내가 하는 대로 내버려 두었다.
내 머릿속은 하얗게 비어버렸고, 혼란스러운 가운데 키스하면서 두 손으로 어설프게 더듬었다. 한참을 그러다가 란위에를 안아 침실로 향했다. 란위에는 저항하거나 거부하지 않았고, 한 팔로 내 목을 감싸 안았는데, 이것은 의심할 여지 없이 나를 더욱 격려했다.
모든 것이 급박하게 일어났고, 너무나 갑작스러웠지만, 또 어쩌면 당연한 일이었다.
묘한 밤, 취한 사람들, 혼란스러운 마음.
란위에의 부드럽고 넓은 침대 위에서, 본능은 나를 무절제하게 만들었지만, 나는 어색함을 느꼈다.
남녀 간의 일에 대해 나는 아무것도 몰랐고, 경험도 없었다.
내가 당황하고 어쩔 줄 모를 때, 마치 모든 것이 운명의 신의 계획인 것처럼, 내 첫 경험은 어릴 적부터 알아온 핑아가 아닌, 일주일도 채 알지 못한 미녀 상사 란위에에게 주어졌다.
그날 밤, 내 인생의 새로운 장이 열렸고, 나보다 10살 많은 이 성숙한 여자와 함께, 나는 어리석은 청년에서 남자로 변모했다.
그날 밤, 처음으로 여자의 신선함과 자극적인 느낌을 맛보며 극도로 흥분했다. 마침내 세상에 이렇게 말로 표현할 수 없는 놀라운 일이 있다는 것을 알게 되었다. 새벽녘이 되어서야 란위에 옆에 쓰러져 깊은 잠에 빠졌다.
나는 정신없이 잠들어, 꿈조차 꾸지 않았다.
깨어났을 때, 옆에는 란위에가 없었고, 꼭 닫힌 커튼 사이로 한 줄기 빛이 새어 들어왔다. 날이 밝았다.
나는 당황하며 일어났다. 란위에는 이미 옷을 갖춰 입고 침대 옆 1인용 소파에 앉아 있었다. 그녀의 시선은 침착했고, 침대 머리맡의 그림을 깊이 바라보고 있었으며, 표정이 조금 멍한 듯했다.
란위에의 고요한 눈빛과 어지러운 침대 시트를 보며, 나는 어젯밤 우리 사이에 무슨 일이 있었는지 깨달았다.
갑자기 내 신분을 자각하며 매우 어색하고 당혹스러워져, 서둘러 옷을 입고 일어났다.
이 과정에서 란위에는 계속 침묵을 지키며 생각에 잠긴 눈빛으로 나를 바라보았다.
옷을 다 입고 나는 불안하게 란위에 앞에 서 있었다. 마치 잘못을 저지른 아이처럼.
한참 후에야 란위에가 입을 열었다. "너 처음이었어?"
나는 난처하게 고개를 끄덕이며 얼굴이 붉어졌다.
란위에는 다시 침묵했고, 내가 슬쩍 그녀를 바라보니 깜짝 놀랐다. 란위에의 얼굴에는 미안함과 불안한 표정이 서려 있었다.
나는 잠시 혼란스러웠고, 곧이어 란위에의 한숨 소리가 들렸다. "미안해..."
나는 놀라서 고개를 들어 란위에를 바라봤다. 그녀의 눈에는 불안과 미안함이 더욱 짙게 서려 있었다.
"장펑, 미안해. 네가 그런 줄 몰랐어..." 란위에가 조용히 말했다.
나는 멍하니 란위에를 바라봤다. 이 아름다운 여인을, 내 어리고 혼란스러운 인생에 화려한 한 페이지를 써준 미녀 상사를 바라보며, 머릿속에는 어젯밤의 뜨겁고 열정적인 장면들이 스쳐 지나갔다...
나도 모르게 가슴이 벅차오르고, 마음속에서 격정적인 감정이 솟구쳐 충동적으로 외쳤다. "월 누나!"
이 한마디를 외치는 순간, 내 마음속에는 만감이 교차하며 란위에에 대한 무한한 매력과 애정이 가득 차올랐다.
이 순간, 나는 그녀가 평소에 높고 높은 미녀 상사라는 것을 잊었고, 이 순간, 핑아를 떠올리지도 않았으며, 이 순간, 나는 내가 한 남자라고 느꼈다.
란위에는 미간을 살짝 찌푸리며 애처로운 눈빛으로 나를 바라봤다. 입술을 살짝 깨물더니 작은 목소리로 말했다. "장펑, 너무 생각하지 마. 어젯밤엔 우리 둘 다 술에 취했어. 이제 돌아가."
란위에의 말을 듣고 그녀의 눈빛을 보며, 내 가슴이 갑자기 아파왔다.
"월 누나, 나는..." 내가 막 입을 열려는데, 란위에는 검지를 입에 대고 가볍게 고개를 저었다.
나는 멍하니 란위에를 바라보며 계속 가슴이 아팠다. 갑자기 그녀에게 "사랑해"라고 말하고 싶었다.
그리고 곧 내 생각의 황당함을 깨달았다. 세상에 어떻게 이렇게 빨리 오는 사랑이 있을까.
하지만 나는 내 마음속 생각을 억누를 수 없었다. 핑아와 이렇게 오랜 세월을 함께했는데도, 나는 이토록 강렬한 감정의 충동을 느껴본 적이 없었고, 이렇게 뼈에 사무치는 느낌도 없었다.
이것이 정말 사랑일까?
남자의 사랑이 정말 이렇게 빨리 올 수 있을까?
내 머릿속은 혼란스러웠고, 란위에의 눈빛에서 거부할 수 없는 단호함을 보며, 비록 마음에 불만이 있었지만 결국 아무 말도 하지 못했다. 미래에 대한 무지와 막막함을 안고, 고개를 숙이고 얌전히 란위에의 집을 나섰다.
나오면서 문득 한 가지 의문이 들었다. 란위에의 집에는 남자가 없는데, 왜일까?
