As far as I can reach

Step 3. You said you were a newbie, right?

The silence grew longer, and the one who broke it was the man in front of me, who kept his mouth so close that if I moved it, we would collide.

"Ah.., ah..! I'm sorry."

He apologized and made me stand a step behind him. But then he was in that dorm earlier... that guy who looked like a rabbit...

“And senior Seokjin said it was dangerous for a woman to go alone, so I came here.”

"Oh, I see... Let's go now!" After walking for a while, the convenience store appeared right away.

정국 image

정국

"You go in first."

여주 image

여주

"Yes..? Yes.." Why did you tell me to go in first..? It's nice that convenience stores have glass doors. I can see everything he's doing. I watched him like a thief. What he took out of his pocket was none other than a cigarette. I thought he wouldn't smoke because he looked young.. Hmm.. Let's go buy something!

"Hmm...what should I buy?"

정국 image

정국

"The seniors asked me to buy them some drinks."

여주 image

여주

"Surprise!" He was the one who put his face right next to mine as I was wondering when he came in and what to buy, and told me to buy drinks for my seniors. But the surprise wasn't the smell of cigarettes... I hated the smell so much that I covered my nose, and he said this.

"Ah.., I'm sorry.. I was trying to quit smoking.."

"It's okay." I bought everything and left.

I wanted to make the silence disappear, so I asked an obvious question.

여주 image

여주

"You said you were new, right? What's your name?"

정국 image

정국

"This is Jeon Jungkook. By the way, I'm 18 years old."

"Um...um...? How did you buy the alcohol earlier?" I asked, thinking, "You clearly bought the alcohol at a convenience store, but you're underage. How did you buy it?"

정국 image

정국

"Ah..! That.. only the Grim Reaper can do it.. In the afterlife, a drink is made just for the Grim Reaper. That drink is poisonous to other ghosts, but it's less poisonous to the Grim Reaper."

여주

"Hmm... I see... Ah...! And I'm Kim Yeo-ju. I'm 19 years old."

정국 image

정국

"Huh? You're older than me. Feel free to talk to me."

여주 image

여주

"You too, speak comfortably."

정국 image

정국

"Still, we've become quite close. Please take care of me in the future, Sister."

여주 image

여주

"Yeah, yeah." I realized today that the word "noona" is so affectionate. Actually... I was thrilled. To be called "noona"...

정국 image

정국

"Sister, I'm here... Where are you?"

여주 image

여주

"No, no. It's because I'm cold." So much so that my ears and cheeks turned red.
