At that moment, I saw a halo shining from that senior. And at that moment, hearts... welled up in my eyes...
"Ah.... ugh...thank you..."
"No, I hope you're not hurt. Take care."
Taehyung said something indifferent and went off to play soccer. I think that's when I started following him around.

Exactly a week passed and I was waiting in front of Taehyung's class every day when the third-year teacher asked me if I had any business. When I said I had nothing to do, the teacher asked me who I had come to see. When I said that, she told me to go and went to the teacher's office.
As the ceremony ended, I was able to immediately recognize my senior among the crowd that came out.
"senior!!!"
"...Kim... Yeoju?"
"Hehe, I've been waiting for you, senior!"
"Me? Why are you waiting? Do you have something to say?"
"Um... what... wait?"
I took my senior and led him to the blind spot behind the school. Being alone for the first time, my heart felt like it was going to burst, but I held it together and looked straight at him.
"senior"
"Yeah. Why?"
"I think I like that senior. That's why I kept following him around and waiting in front of his class."
I felt like I was going to say something hesitant, but I held back and gathered my courage to speak, but my senior didn't seem to know how I felt and his firm words pierced my heart.
"Why should I accept your confession? You don't really know me, and I don't really know you. Unless we're somewhat close, why should I accept your confession in this situation?"
"...senior..."
"I'm sorry, but I can't accept it. Please give me some time to think about it. If you suddenly confess like this, I don't know how to react."
"Ah... I see...."

Time passed by like that without any results, and today too, I spent the whole day holding my phone and waiting for my senior to contact me.
I found out my senior's number three days ago. I asked a friend of a friend for it, and he handed it over without a second thought. He said he got scolded by senior Taehyung that day... Well, it has nothing to do with me^^7
I thought I'd get a reply, so I sent him my first text, thinking it was truly the last time I'd ever see him. He asked if I still needed time to think things over. Weeks passed, and the number "1" remained, weighing heavily on my mind, making me anxious.
Ah... aren't we going to get dumped again like this...? Well, I got dumped last time too, but this is too much ㅠ_ㅠ
Ha.... I guess I'm a kid who's not good at love... I guess I'll just give up today too....
So I was lying in bed in a state of despair. As soon as I saw the message on the screen, I checked it at lightning speed and a smile appeared on my face.
[No, I've thought about it. That's why I'm texting you. Do you really like me?]
[Of course ㅠㅠㅠㅠ If you really date a senior, it's like saving the world ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
There was no response for a moment, whether he was replying or just ignoring, and then black letters appeared on a white background.
[Okay, let's date since that's what you want.]
