A fool's unrequited love

#8. The distance is growing farther away

"I'm going to confess to Song A-rin tomorrow when I go to school, so I can't go to school with her tomorrow."

And then, Hwang Min-hyun waved his hand lightly and entered the house with a bang.

"I'm going too!"

Even Kim Jae-hwan went into the house,

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"phew..."

Daniel and I were the only ones left in the apartment hallway.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Gashina, just give up and give up."

Daniel spoke in a dialect that came out a lot when he was worried or excited.

박여주

"If it were easy, we would have done it already."

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Your guy is so nice."

박여주 image

박여주

"just."

I swallowed the words, “Because it’s Hwang Min-hyun,” and forced a smile.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Where else could there be such a stupid reason?"

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Go inside and get some rest."

박여주 image

박여주

"okay."

I went into the house, slightly raising the corners of my lips that kept going down.

I came home with my tired body,

박지훈 image

박지훈

"Where did you go, sister?"

박여주 image

박여주

"I just ate."

박여주 image

박여주

"What about Mom?"

박지훈 image

박지훈

"Brother's hospital."

박여주 image

박여주

"Are you sick, oppa?"

박지훈 image

박지훈

"Is it stress-induced enteritis or something?"

Then Park Ji-hoon turned his steps towards his room.

박여주 image

박여주

"Did you do well on the test?"

Then he paused.

박지훈 image

박지훈

"All white."

Then, Park Ji-hoon closed the door and disappeared before my eyes.

I think I fell asleep with endless thoughts of how unlucky I was.

박여주

[hello.]

김재환 image

김재환

[Come out quickly!! If you keep doing this, you'll be late!!!]

I looked at my watch,

08:15 AM

박여주 image

박여주

[8:15! I'll go now!!]

I came out of the house wearing slippers roughly.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"What's that on your head?"

Daniel started laughing, pointing at my hair.

When I looked in the mirror, I realized that my hair was all messy and uncombed.

박여주 image

박여주

"Hey."

After roughly combing my hair a couple of times, I arrived at school before I knew it.

김재환 image

김재환

"Hey, look over there."

As I was going up the stairs, I tried to follow Kim Jae-hwan's finger pointing to the upper floor.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"crazy."

Daniel tried to cover my eyes with his hands.

박여주 image

박여주

"Why what is it?"

I forcibly took Daniel's hand away,

Hwang Min-hyun was seen smiling brightly and talking to Song A-rin, wondering what was so good about it.

박여주 image

박여주

"Well, I guess you two decided to date."

I tried to pretend like everything was okay, but

Maybe it was a result I already knew,

The more Hwang Min-hyun smiled brightly, the sadder I became.

Enough to understand what it means to be 'heartbroken'.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Park Yeo-ju, let's go to the class."

I forced a smile as I passed by Hwang Min-hyun and Song A-rin, who were so sweet together.

황민현 image

황민현

"Park Yeo-ju!"

Ignoring Hwang Min-hyun's words heard from behind.

The class time passed by really meaninglessly.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Hey, you..."

박여주 image

박여주

"I'm fine."

.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Park Yeo-ju, you..."

박여주 image

박여주

"I'm okay."

As this pattern repeated itself over and over again, my lies increased.

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Hey, you thorn!"

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"You're not okay at all,"

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Why do you keep pretending everything is okay?"

"Like an idiot."

박여주 image

박여주

"Sob...then...sob...what do you want me to do..."

박여주 image

박여주

"They say he's happy...sob..They say Hwang Min-hyun is happy!!"

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"Sigh...then what about me..."

박여주 image

박여주

"what?"

강다니엘 image

강다니엘

"No. I'm sorry."

I walked out into the hallway, trying to dry my tears and cheer myself up.

황민현 image

황민현

"Park Yeo-ju!"

I guess it was a wrong choice.

박여주 image

박여주

"Uh...uh...hello."

“Arin, wait a minute.” I waited foolishly for Hwang Min-hyun to approach me.

황민현 image

황민현

"Did you cry?"

박여주 image

박여주

"Oh... no?"

It's true, I cried because of you.

황민현 image

황민현

"Your eyes are red?"

박여주 image

박여주

"I'm just a little tired."

황민현 image

황민현

"Ah, go and get some rest."

I called out to Hwang Min-hyun, who was about to turn around and go to Song A-rin.

박여주 image

박여주

"Hey, Hwang Min-hyun."

Hwang Min-hyun just stood there, his steps still, his back turned.

박여주 image

박여주

"Let's go our separate ways now."

황민현 image

황민현

"what?"

박여주 image

박여주

"Your girlfriend will be jealous if you hang out with me."

박여주 image

박여주

"Let's go separately."

황민현 image

황민현

"No, what is that..."

황민현 image

황민현

"Okay... I understand."

What I wanted to hear from your mouth was, "No, I want to go out with you."

I guess I was being too greedy.

Hwang Min-hyun and I,

황민현 image

황민현

"I'll go."

I guess it was fate that we would grow further apart like this.

박여주 image

박여주

"Okay, go quickly."

Is fate cruel?

Hwang Minhyun, are you being harsh?

Even as I watched you drift away, I wanted to know everything about your current expression and your feelings.

Even though we're growing further apart, why does my heart grow bigger?

I thought that as the distance grew, our hearts would also grow distant.
