"What are you doing tomorrow?"
오여주
"Tomorrow?... Why tomorrow?"
Jaehyun's answer came back when he asked if the two of them were going to meet up and hang out, unable to answer right away due to his trembling heart.
명재현
"No, Yewon suddenly gave me movie tickets, so if you have time..."
오여주
"Sorry. Come to think of it, I forgot we had an appointment yesterday."
명재현
"Ah... really? Then there's nothing I can do."
'Why would Yewon give that to you...'
I got up from my seat, dusted myself off, and spoke to Jaehyun.
오여주
"Shall we go in now?"
Jaehyun, who got up from his seat and patted his butt in response to my question.
"I'll take you there"
After saying that, I saw Jaehyun pass me by and take the lead, and instead of following him, I stood tall.
오여주
"Jaehyun."
Jaehyun turned towards me at my call.
I took a step forward and continued speaking.
오여주
"I'm actually uncomfortable"
명재현
"...uh?"
오여주
"The kindnesses you do so carelessly..."
명재현
"..."
오여주
"The kind words you say so casually make me uncomfortable."
Jaehyun, who had been mumbling for a while to listen to what I said, took a step back and laughed awkwardly, saying, "Haha."
명재현
"That could be true, right? Did I act a little burdensome?"
오여주
"..."
명재현
"Thank you for telling me. I should go in quickly too. You, heroine, be careful on your way in too!"
After saying those words, I watched Jaehyun turn and walk away, then finally turned my head and walked towards my house. Now, everything felt neatly organized.
It really felt like there would be no more complicated feelings or things happening between Jaehyun and Yeonjun.
...
Myung Jae-hyun's point of view

"I have plans tomorrow..."
On the way home, I put in my earphones and started complaining to my friend while talking on the phone.
최예원
"Kabi, there's nothing I can do. Oh, the movie tickets are only available until next week, so ask again!"
I lowered my head at Yewon's words and started walking, knocking over the rocks in front of me.
Thump-
"however..."
Thump-
"The heroine..."
Thump-
"It's uncomfortable"
최예원
"uh?"
The stone I was kicking rolled down and fell into the sewer.
I lifted my head, which had been hanging down, and looked up at the sky. Then, I heard a voice and started walking again.
최예원
"Why is it uncomfortable?"
명재현
"I feel uncomfortable being so casually kind and affectionate..."
최예원
"Ah... I know what that feels like."
Bunch- My eyes widened at Yewon's words, and I immediately held my breath and began to focus on her voice.
최예원
"You're not saying that because you think you'd do that to just anyone, are you? Even when you were mistaken for dating me before, you were just kidding around, so everyone believed you."
명재현
"What does that have to do with this..."
최예원
"So, you're the type of person who often does or says things that other people misunderstand."
명재현
"I only do that to the female protagonist..."
최예원
"That's your opinion~"
명재현
"Then what should I do?"
최예원
"That's your problem too. I'm going to sleep. I'm going to sleep."
The phone rang and hung up...
명재현
"Actions that others misunderstand... Me?"
I didn't understand. Honestly, what Yewon just said wasn't because I'm that type of person, but because she was sincere at the time.
It's true that there was a misunderstanding because I was interested in Yewon at one point and treated her well, but it wasn't because I'm the type of person who does that to just anyone.
I just want to do well for the female lead as well...
...
When I first saw her, I just thought she was a really pretty girl.
But the more I watched her, the more I felt that her unique conviction and confidence were incredibly attractive.
Just now...
"The kindnesses you do so casually, the affectionate words you say so casually, make me uncomfortable."
The female protagonist says everything she wants to say.
"Cool"
It was clearly a big hit, but I couldn't stop laughing. I thought that with a woman like this, I wouldn't regret trying a little harder.
...
Oh Yeo-ju's point of view

오여주
"I'll be back~"
On my way to school after a weekend that felt so long...
I was worried about how I would face Yeongseo when I actually got there, but I didn't really care.
I thought it was just a fight with a friend of the same age, so I confidently went to school, thinking that I would somehow get through it.
however...
The stinging stares I felt all the way to class...
At first, I thought it was a mistake, but on the way to class, there were friends who glared at me or hit my shoulder as they walked by, so I could definitely feel the change in the school atmosphere.
At that time, a woman stood tall in front of me.

"Are you coming?"

Everyone... I'm not dead yet... You've been waiting for me, right? (Earnestly)
