From the first day of transferring to school, I was picked on by a group of punks like a beggar.

'' Oh, I'm so sleepy '' ((Yeoju
I yawned and opened the classroom door. It was an unexpected early start to school, caused by my mother dropping me off at work after hearing I'd gotten lost the day before.
'' What a nice first '' ((Yeoju
I felt a strange sense of pride at being the first to arrive at school. But my pride soon faded as I saw Subin sitting in her seat.
Seeing the black horn-rimmed glasses and the school uniform, he looked very different from his first impression.
''Hey, Yeoju? You're here early? '' ((Soobin
''Huh? How did it happen?'' ((Yeoju
I felt like the nerd I had only seen on my phone was coming to life.
Perhaps... cigarettes also had a story?
''Then shut up and be quiet. It'll disturb your studies.'' ((Soobin
No. That son of a bitch is a real punk.
''Hey, what are you studying?'' ((Yeoju
''You should study together too.'' ((Subin
''There's nothing to study?'' ((Yeoju
''What... read your textbook or solve math problems.'' ((Subin
''This is so shameless. It's like an interview with someone who got a perfect score on the college entrance exam.'' ((Yeoju
'' Our school's exams, especially the science exams, are similar to the questions in the special education exams.'' ((Subin
Subin's expression changed at my words. I think I must have touched the wrong person.
'' ...Okay!! You study! '' ((Yeoju
Subin got up from her seat and strode towards me.
'' Hey '' ((Subin
'' Yes? No, huh? '' ((Yeoju
''Do you want to go see a rabbit?'' ((Soobin

Subin deftly gathered rabbit food from the storage room and headed toward the back of the school. I followed him without saying a word.
''It's here.'' ((Subin
Subin nodded and pointed to a large cage with fences. There were more rabbits frolicking around than expected.
'' Oh my... so cute... '' ((Yeoju
Subin fed the rabbits with the happiest smile I've ever seen.
'' Choi Soo-bin. '' ((Yeoju
''Why?'' ((Soobin
The rabbit looked at me with a slightly gentler face, perhaps because it had seen me before.
''You really look like a rabbit.'' ((Yeoju
'' ...what do they mean by similarity? '' ((Subin
Subin avoided my gaze, perhaps embarrassed, as she petted the rabbit. Seeing that two-shot, I felt they looked even more alike.
''But are you in charge of this place?'' ((Yeoju
''With the kids. Well, I'm mainly in charge of it'' ((Soobin
''Why?'' ((Yeoju
''I'm shy so I feel comfortable here.'' ((Soobin
'' Huh? You? Are you shy? '' ((Yeoju
'' A lot? '' ((Subin
'' But why with me... '' ((Yeoju
'' Oh, really? '' ((Soobin
Subin thought for a moment, then shrugged and continued speaking.
''I guess it's because we've built up a sense of intimacy.'' ((Soobin
'' Intimacy? '' ((Yeoju
''Because Beomgyu and Taehyun talked about you a lot. Of course, Choi Beomgyu's role is incomparably large... but Kang Taehyun also had a lot of important things.'' ((Soobin
Choi Beom-gyu is the kind of guy who would just float his mouth and brag about falling into water, so it's not surprising that he talked about me a lot.
But Kang Tae-hyun. He's unexpected, isn't he?
''Should we start going to class now?'' ((Soobin
''Huh? Yeah! Okay!'' ((Yeoju
Previously, Soobin had followed him, but this time I walked alongside him. As I talked with him, I felt a sense of intimacy building, and the intense image from our first day faded.
'' But Choi Soo-bin. '' ((Yeoju
''Huh?'' ((Soobin
''You really are like a gangster'' ((Yeoju
'' ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ what are you talking about '' ((Subin
So maybe that's why I was able to play more pranks.
At that moment, someone came between me and Subin and came towards me.
'' Subinaaaa I'm here! '' ((Suyeon
The child turned his back on me and looked at Subin, whether intentionally or not.
''Did you have a good trip?'' ((Subin
'' Yeah! Soobin, done! Look at this hehe '' ((Sooyeon
A girl who seemed familiar somehow waved a paper bag she was holding in front of Soobin and placed it directly in his hand.
''Thank you, Suyeon.'' ((Soobin
'' Suyeon? Yoo Suyeon? '' ((Yeoju
'' ...? '' ((Suyeon
''It's me! Yeoju!! Don't you remember?'' ((Yeoju
'' Ah... hey, Yeoju-woo???? Our Jjuya???? Of course I remember youㅠㅠㅠㅠ Did you transfer? '' ((Suyeon
''He transferred yesterday. But do you two know each other? '' ((Soobin
'' Yeah! We're from the same hometown! Taehyun, Beomgyu, Suyeon, and I were called the Moa Village Foursome! '' ((Yeoju
Suyeon linked arms with me and we walked to class together.
''Kang Tae-hyun didn't say anything like that...'' ((Soo-bin
