Drumroll-
The school gate opened, and Yeoju came in, dripping sweat emoticons that were visible even when they weren't visible. She looked out of breath, as if she'd run, and the hot pack, an essential item on a cold March day, was already limp, exhausted from the effort she held in her hand. It only took a few minutes for her to enter the classroom and quickly find her seat, but by then the bell had rung and the assembly had begun.
“… decided to do it. Please take care of it. The ordinance is finished!”
The assembly ended simply and clearly—it was just before the assembly time, and the children breathed a sigh of relief at the teacher's conclusion, their faces brightening. At the same time, they wore the expression of hyenas, searching for their pack. Kim Yeo-ju was no exception. Of course, there were quite a few children who caught her eye, but what caught her eye even more was the handsome boy sitting in front of her.
‘I feel like I’ve seen this somewhere… or not?’
The heroine was busily searching through her memories while thinking like that.
'Oh, that's right! Choi Yeonjun!'
Yeonjun felt Yeoju's intense gaze and turned around, but then— Their gazes met in mid-air. Yeonjun chuckled as he saw Yeoju slowly avoiding eye contact. The laughter was fleeting, as Yeonjun got up and walked out the school gate, and Yeoju let out a small sigh of relief. Of course, anyone would be thrilled and surprised if a famous celebrity at school locked eyes with them for a few seconds, but even Yeoju thought she understood why Yeonjun had chuckled. Her face was flushed red, like a ripe tomato. She headed to the bathroom to calm herself down, even if it meant looking in the mirror. As she walked down the hallway, she listened intently to the voices she heard.
“Have you seen Choi Yeonjun? Wow… he’s no joke.”
“That’s right. John X is handsome.. ”
“I can’t even talk to someone like him..?”
As expected, a celebrity is a celebrity. She quietly goes into the bathroom and lowers her head to wash her face, but someone taps her on the back and lifts her up.
" ..? who are you? "
"Who are you, who are you?"
“Oh, that’s surprising! Han Ye-na, do you keep surprising me?”
“ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It’s funny, that’s why.. By the way, you were in the same class as Choi Yeonjun? I’m so jealous.. ”
“Hehe, really? Who are you with?”
“I ended up with a pretty good-looking guy. Choi Soobin.”
“Huh… really?”
As she leaves the bathroom with a smile and tries to go back into her class, someone taps her shoulder and passes by.
“Ah! .. Who is it?”
“Wow, isn’t that Choi Soobin? Hey! Choi Soobin!”
“What, you two became friends?”
“No.. We knew each other since school.”
" aha.. "
“Hey, did you call me, Han Ye-na?”
"Yeah, I called! What are you doing here?"
“Huh? I hit him? Oh… sorry, was it too small to see?”
“What?! You’re just as tall as a pole.”
“What did you say? What is your name?”
“Me? Kim Yeo-ju.”
“Oh, your name is little Kim Yeo-ju.”
“You want to die? Hey, follow me!”
“If you run in the hallway, you get 2 penalty points.”
" oh.. "
At those words, Soobin and Yeoju stop in their tracks and start to squirm. Yeonjun, who sees them, speaks softly.
"What? Choi Soo-bin. Why are you hanging out with that kind of kid? It's bothering me."

(Note: Choi Soobin and Choi Yeonjun are very close. Their parents are also close, so they often go on vacation together. The photo above was taken on a beach in Hawaii. Yeonjun whined at Soobin for not bringing a floppy disk camera, but he was satisfied with the photos he took.)
