My Neighbor Is A Freeloader

Chapter 1 [First Encounter]

In late spring, the northern sky is a patch of clear blue after being cleansed by a light drizzle.

Minatozaki Sana is meeting her friend Im Nayeon to check out the newest exhibition in town. Traffic is bad and Sana is relieved that she had chosen to walk, rather than take a bus or train to the venue when she sees the crawling traffic.
A cab next to her touts its horn and its young driver starts trying to flirt with Sana. She puts him down and threw a pebble at his window when he shows no sign of stopping. Thwarted, the driver slinks back to his car while Sana continues her journey with a pretty toss of her head.

The two ladies arrive at "Seoul Sex Cultural Festival" and despite Sana's initial reservations in attending an adult exhibition. She finds that there are indeed many things to see and learn like health tips, advertisements on diet supplements, sex toys, etc.

The exhibition venue is pretty big and is divided into several halls. They reach Hall D which features "Sex Toys", which is again very big and subdivided into several zones. As they marvel over some of the stuff of display, the two can't help but be amazed at the lack of (lower) boundaries of human creativity. They are not able to recognize some of the stuff but can generally figure out its usage after a vigorous round of brainstorming.

Then they reached the inflatable dolls section.

Sana is surprised to find out that there are non-inflatable dolls in addition to inflatable dolls. Plus, non-inflatable dolls are generally more expensive than their inflatable cousins.

There are also some dolls that look really real. So real in fact, they can pass off as real people. Nayeon points to a doll in a sexy pose at one corner and gushes indignantly:

"Sana, look! That doll cost $15000! If someone has that kind of money to burn, why does that person need to buy this?"

As Sana walks over to take a closer look at the doll's boobs, just then, another doll caught her attention. This doll is sitting on a chair and is dressed in white shirt and brown pants. Its hair is cut very short and framed its face neatly. Its eyelids are lowered as if in thought. The doll looks fantastically real and if not for its blank glaze, she would have thought that this is a real person.

Come to think of it, there is no way a real person would look so pretty. Nayeon has discovered the doll too and she shook Sana's shoulder vigorously.

"It is a man doll! Aw, they actually make man dolls?"

Nayeon drags Sana to the doll which looks even better up close. Its skin is very fair - not a plasticky hue but more like natural beige. Its features are very detailed with a high nose; clear, arched brows; thick, dark lashes. Siting in the dark corner, the doll's serenity is worthy of a masterpiece that is crafted stroke after meticulous stroke in order to achieve such perfection.

But not matter how good it looks, it is still a fake. Coming back to reality, Sana touches her chin and admires the doll quietly.
Nayeon is confused.

"Sana, do you think this is a real man?"

Among all the beautiful 'babes', why is there suddenly a handsome' dude'? Or is this meant for the female market? Hmm...

Sana does not know which wire in her brain circuit is crossed wrongly. She reaches out to stroke the doll's chin and leers.

"It looks so pretty, it must be a toy boy!"

Something flickers in the gaze of "toy boy" but the two ladies are busy talking and miss the reaction. Curious over the doll's sexuality, Nayeon touches the front of its pants to see if she can feel anything. Because the shirt was let out instead of tucked in, it is really hard to tell if there is anything underneath with the doll seated down...
