"Oh..! Sorry"
I was startled and came out of his arms, apologized, and stood in front of him, embarrassed.
"Be careful, how many lives do you have?!"Of course, it was a dangerous situation, but it felt strange that he was speaking so seriously to someone I didn't even know.
"Oh, I'll be more careful next time because I'm going to think about it for a bit haha! Then have a good night!"
Wanting to escape this suffocating space, I quickly climbed the stairs of the house with a greeting.
Of course, I saw him following me because he lives next door to me...
The next day
' - Tiring tiring '
I woke up to the loud alarm, washed up, and went out to school half-asleep.
'Rumble'
Today, I was relieved that my timing didn't seem to match up with the person next door, but as I was going down the stairs, I ran into someone unexpectedly.
"Huh..?"
" ? uh.. "
It was the young doctor I saw at the hospital.
There was a brief silence, so I was the first to say hello.
"Haha, you live here. I just moved in yesterday."
He smiled slightly, touching the back of his head, as if he was embarrassed by yesterday's work.
"Ah, I was so surprised to see you here again, Ms. Yeoju, that I was speechless for a moment. Let's get along well from now on, shall we?"
Is it even worth shaking hands? He offered me his hand, and I hesitated before taking it.
Looking at it up close, it seems he's even more handsome than I thought...
"Please step aside?"
I turned to look at the sound and saw the neighbors next door, annoyed by the two people blocking the stairs.
For a moment, I could feel sparks flying between them, as if I had seen things wrong.
'Are they both familiar with each other..?'
Jungkook's faint smile from earlier disappeared somewhere, and he greeted me with a stern expression again before disappearing.
Again, I was left alone with the person next door.
"Haha, I'll be going now too."
As I turned around and started to go down the stairs, he grabbed my hood again.
No, I never wear hoodies again.
" excuse me "
I looked at him and he smiled shyly and spoke to me.
"My name is Kim Taehyung. I'm 25 years old and I live next door, but I haven't properly greeted you until now."
I was bewildered by the completely different atmosphere from yesterday. Yesterday, just by meeting him, he seemed to be trying to kill me with his gaze.
"Ah! Nice to meet you too. I'm Yoo Yeo-ju and I'm 24 years old."
Taehyung looked like he wanted to ask something like a puppy that needs to poop. Then he looked at me as if he had made up his mind.
"Are you close with that guy? Where did you meet him?"
Yesterday, he was looking at me with eyes as curious as a puppy, wondering if it was him.
"You're the doctor in charge at the hospital! We just met by chance, haha.."
Upon hearing my answer, Taehyung's puppy-like gaze briefly disappeared and he sighed in relief.
"Thank goodness you don't get too close to that person."
For some reason, Taehyung looked serious, so I just nodded and answered.
After breaking up with Taehyung, I was absentmindedly attending class at school, thinking about their relationship.
"Junior Yoo, if you go to 6th grade like me, you have to graduate."Seokjin was sitting next to me, resting his chin on his hand and looking at me.
"Oh, senior, I won't be able to become a fossil haha"
He puffed out his cheeks once, perhaps because he was offended by my teasing tone.
"I'm going to class~"
He waved and left.
Yeah, what's the point of worrying about relationships with people you don't even know well anyway? Just think about getting a job after you graduate!
I tried to come to my senses by hitting my cheek with both hands.
I took out my phone and saw a message in the group chat.
"Today, a doctor from a nearby hospital will come to the practical training class and help you with your practical training, so everyone, come on time and get ready."
Ah, today is the day of practice. I haven't been able to go to school for over a year due to an incurable illness, so I've lost almost all of my friends and my classes are all different, so I'm having a rough time.
There was still some time left until the practice, but since I had nowhere else to go, I walked alone and opened the practice room door.
'Drrrrr'
" ?? "
That's ridiculous.. The person who turned around at the sound of the door opening was none other than Jeon Jungkook.
"Does Yeoju go to this school?"
