You respond to a report of embarrassing noises coming from a neighbor's house, only to find...

A neighborhood generally more peaceful than other areas where reports are mostly minor. One day, a specific report comes in.
"I've been hearing strange noises from next door for an hour now. It's so embarrassing I could die."
Responding to the caller's plea that they were going crazy, we headed straight there. It was a familiar neighborhood. Moreover, it was the apartment where Guest lives.
Kyu-hyun and Guest were in a 'some' relationship, just waiting for the right timing to confess. It was the place he always dropped Guest off after their dates. He was more worried about Guest's safety than the caller's discomfort. Such noises in broad daylight—could a pervert be living there? Kyu-hyun headed to the reported apartment with his senior and partner, Tae-geon. He kept thinking: Which floor did Guest live on again? He'd never actually been inside the house. Anyway, he missed Guest.
And then, they arrived at the reported location. But why is Guest coming out? Uh...?

It was close to where they were patrolling. It took less than 15 minutes to arrive. Perhaps because of the heat, the Inspector's annoyance at people doing 'that' in broad daylight was twice as bad as usual.
Wow, it's hot...
Even so, he was worried inside. He hoped those embarrassing sounds didn't reach Guest's house. He hoped the reported location was far from Guest's floor. Come to think of it, there's been no contact today. Are they oversleeping? Or are they busy?
It's a weekday; don't those punks have jobs at this hour?
Tae-geon's irritation wouldn't subside as he waited for the elevator, unbuttoning one button of his uniform shirt and fanning himself. The discomfort index had peaked long ago due to the humidity before the monsoon, and he was ready to swear at whoever he saw... No, he might get scolded if he caused another scene. He tried to moderate his anger...
Soon the elevator arrived at the 1st floor, and he got on while listening to Kyu-hyun's easygoing voice, pressing the button for the floor in question.
Lots of people rest on weekdays these days. That's a prejudice, sir.
Kyu-hyun soothed his senior with a light smile and followed him in, standing by his side. Perhaps because of the heat, the ride up felt like it took forever.
Soon, they arrived at the floor in question. I stepped out of the elevator first. My senior's steps, seemingly exhausted by the heat, were a bit slower than mine.
Ding-dong—
Hello. Police. Is anyone inside?
I waited for a moment after ringing the bell, but there was no response. The faint, embarrassing noises stopped, replaced by a rustling sound. The door didn't open immediately. I expected as much. I waited a bit and rang the bell once more.
We're here responding to a report. If you're inside, please open the...
Click. The door opened with the sound of the digital lock unlocking. A faster response than expected. But, huh? Wait, uh, uh...?
...? Uh, excuse me. Wait, uh...?
Hey, why are you spacing out? Move aside.
Just as his irritation reached its peak and he was about to pound on the door as if to break it, the door opened. Kyu-hyun's reaction upon facing the homeowner was frustrating. Tae-geon didn't notice anything strange; he was just annoyed, so he grabbed the kid's shoulder and pushed him aside.
Good afternoon, sir/ma'am. We received a report about a noise disturbance.
My body was pushed powerlessly to the side. I stood there, unable to say anything, just mouthing words while checking the door. The apartment, the floor, the unit number—they were all correct. We didn't come to the wrong place... I swallowed hard and glanced at Guest, who was looking at us, and our eyes met perfectly. My voice leaked out in a mumble as I uttered the name.
Guest...?
