Secret Love
It's a short story

Knock knock...-
Kim Dong-hyun, who couldn't focus for long, nudged Yeo-ju's shoulder. Yeo-ju turned her head and looked at Dong-hyun. Kim Dong-hyun, smiling faintly, silently raised his thumb.
Yeo-ju simply gaped at Dong-hyun, asking, "What?" Dong-hyun thrust his thumb at Yeo-ju, signaling for her to press it. It was obvious that Kim Dong-hyun would be up to another strange prank, but Yeo-ju decided to go along with Dong-hyun's rhythm.
Hold.-
When Yeo-ju pressed down on Dong-hyun's thumb, Dong-hyun's index finger straightened. Yeo-ju looked at Dong-hyun again, only a question mark floating in her mind. Dong-hyun opened his mouth and told her to pull it into the shape of a mouth. Looking closely, she saw that Kim Dong-hyun had written small letters in ballpoint pen on his index finger saying, "Pull it." He had been fidgeting on his own throughout the lecture, so maybe this was for this? Yeo-ju forced the corners of her mouth to lower and, following Kim Dong-hyun's instructions, pulled Dong-hyun's index finger straight.
All the way.-
Swish. As soon as he pulled his finger, Kim Dong-hyun's remaining clenched fingers spread open. On Kim Dong-hyun's palm was the word "gift" and a single My Chew placed on top of it.
"gift"
With those words, Kim Dong-hyun widened his eyes. With Kim Dong-hyun's typical ◠‿◠ smile. The female lead, who thought, "What an unusual gift," met Dong-hyun's eyes once and smiled faintly. Sometimes, she finds Kim Dong-hyun's strange behavior so endearing that she unconsciously mistakes the large guy for a large dog.
Sweep.-
Yeoju picked up a ballpoint pen and scribbled on a blank notebook, and Donghyun stared blankly at her. Yeoju wrote "Thank you" on the paper. Kim Donghyun smiled at this and took his own ballpoint pen to the paper.
⸝⸝> ̫ <⸝⸝
Donghyun silently drew an emoticon. A wink and a blush. I found it both funny and cute how his large hands could so easily draw such a trivial emoticon. Yeoju barely managed to suppress a burst of laughter and, as if responding to Kim Donghyun's emoticon, tapped her pen to the paper again.
The female protagonist, struggling to find her words, fiddled with her pen in the air for five seconds. Dong-hyun stared intently at her hand. His face seemed slightly expectant. The female protagonist glanced at Kim Dong-hyun's face and scribbled on the paper with her pen. I wasn't a talented artist, but I thought this would be enough.

An emoticon holding a heart. To the female protagonist, who lacked aegyo, the heart was a bold expression of affection. Knowing that kind of female protagonist, Kim Dong-hyun smiled disarmingly, like melting ice cream. If a big dog could become a human, wouldn't it be Kim Dong-hyun? An invisible tail wagged behind Kim Dong-hyun's face.
Knock knock...-
Kim Dong-hyun again poked the back of my hand on the desk. It was the hand that was holding the Mychew he had just given me. Thinking that he was telling her to eat it now, Yeo-ju opened the Mychew bag and put it in her mouth. But Dong-hyun said that was not the case and poked the back of my hand again. Yeo-ju, who could not figure out Kim Dong-hyun's intentions, just stared at Dong-hyun's face. Perhaps frustrated, Kim Dong-hyun only then grabbed Yeo-ju's hand and made a fist under the desk. Yeo-ju flinched. She flinched at the hand that had taken the initiative.
Are you crazy, Kim Dong-hyun? What would you do if someone saw you...? The tension in Kim Dong-hyun's bold female lead's spine tingled. However, Kim Dong-hyun, who was holding her hand, only smiled faintly, as if satisfied.
Before I knew it, I felt my palms warming up. Was it because of Kim Dong-hyun's body heat, or because of me? I tried hard to turn my head away from Dong-hyun. Still, Kim Dong-hyun didn't care and just held onto my hand.
This is...
They say it's a secret relationship, but isn't that a bit too bold...
