What time is it now?

이 찬 image

이 찬

It's been 10 minutes since you left, there's still an hour left.

I'm just living an ordinary college life, and I'm currently working part-time with Chan.

I'm just an ordinary person, no different from anyone else, except for one thing.

I sometimes have dreams about my past life, and those memories flash through my mind for a very short time.

A man whose face and name I don't even know.

이채윤 image

이채윤

An hour? I'm pretty sure it's been an hour since I started working.

이 찬 image

이 찬

Damn it.

이 찬 image

이 찬

Oh right, I did an extra 30 minutes yesterday so I'm going first today.

이채윤 image

이채윤

...Who are you? Why are you the only one going?

이채윤 image

이채윤

Please take me too.

이 찬 image

이 찬

Yeah, get out!

Should I eat this cold porridge?

이 찬 image

이 찬

Well then, I'm off!

"Tingle"

이채윤 image

이채윤

I really want to kill you,

이채윤 image

이채윤

But how is it that there isn't a single person there?

...

The cafe was quiet, perhaps because it was a weekday afternoon when everyone was working and studying.

And the cafe bell breaks the silence.

"Tingle"

이채윤 image

이채윤

hello.

부승관 image

부승관

Yes, hello, hey Choi Han-sol, what are you going to eat?

부승관 image

부승관

"Chaeyoon, you're pretty today too. Do you want to go to the market and play?"

이채윤 image

이채윤

"If you're playing with me out of pity, just go back. I don't need sympathy."

이채윤 image

이채윤

"...Even if it's not out of pity, please go. I'm just a commoner. Not a noble, but a commoner."

부승관 image

부승관

"Is it necessary to divide love between nobles and commoners?"

부승관 image

부승관

"And even though it may not work out now, from the day I become king, I will take care of you, Chaeyoon."

부승관 image

부승관

"Isn't it possible to like something?"

이채윤 image

이채윤

under...

We brushed past each other again, but strangely, when those men came in, the conversation became clearer.

Clearer and more accurate than usual.

부승관 image

부승관

...yo. this!

이채윤 image

이채윤

N, yes?

부승관 image

부승관

I kept calling, but there was no answer.

부승관 image

부승관

Are you very tired?

이채윤 image

이채윤

Oh... I think I dozed off a bit yesterday while doing my homework. Sorry.

최한솔 image

최한솔

No, he's a bit nosy, so just ignore him.

부승관 image

부승관

hey!

최한솔 image

최한솔

This one, please give me one ah-ah, and I'll have one lemon tea.

이채윤 image

이채윤

Ah. Would you like one and one lemon tea?

최한솔 image

최한솔

yes.

Both of you are handsome...

부승관 image

부승관

Wait a minute, ah. ah, give me one more!

이채윤 image

이채윤

Yes, I understand. Please come when the bell rings.

최한솔 image

최한솔

yes.

최한솔 image

최한솔

What the heck, who the hell is this?

부승관 image

부승관

No? I was going to give it to that person, he looks so tired.

최한솔 image

최한솔

Oh please, Seungkwan, stop being so nosy.

최한솔 image

최한솔

What would she do if she had a boyfriend?

부승관 image

부승관

Wow... I didn't think of that. What should I do? Should I cancel?

부승관 image

부승관

What if I have a boyfriend? Won't I just misunderstand?

최한솔 image

최한솔

Just drink two of them.

부승관 image

부승관

...

"Jiying"

부승관 image

부승관

I'll take it, you go out first.

최한솔 image

최한솔

What do you know,

이채윤 image

이채윤

Ah, two and a lemon tea came out.

부승관 image

부승관

Thank you and this... I'm giving it to you because you look so tired!

이채윤 image

이채윤

...Thank you hehe

"Tingle"

이채윤 image

이채윤

You're really handsome. I hope you come tomorrow too.

이채윤 image

이채윤

Mr. C× 00 I will definitely kill this kid.

00, who was next in line for part-time work, couldn't come today due to some circumstances, so I worked part-time for an hour longer than usual.

On my way home, I unexpectedly met the man again.

부승관 image

부승관

"I'm on my way home, don't worry about me, Mom~ haha"

이채윤 image

이채윤

Why is it so unfamiliar...

이채윤 image

이채윤

"I will never, ever appear before you again, so please forgive me..."

"Do you think this is the first time I've heard that? How can I trust you, Chaeyoon?"

"Get out and don't come back. It's a warning, so I'll keep telling you to come."

부승관 image

부승관

"Mother!! Please don't interfere, that's not a concern. If that's a concern"

부승관 image

부승관

"Don't worry, you don't have to worry."

Hmm...does this seem like too sudden a development?
