Childhood friend Jeon Won-woo
15. Excitement


I don't remember how I got down from the mountain.

My foot was bandaged and Jeon Won-woo was sitting next to me.


์ํ๋
"Jeon Won-woo?"


์ ์์ฐ
"..."

When I call Jeon Won-woo, he quickly pretends to be doing something else. This is already the fifth time.


์ํ๋
"Hey. Aren't you going to look at me?"

I grabbed Jeon Won-woo's shoulder and forced him to turn to look at me.


์ ์์ฐ
"..."

hmm...

What are we supposed to do now..?

He grabbed Jeon Won-woo's hands and got off.


์ ์์ฐ
"What, why."


์ํ๋
"No, you were the one who confessed, so why are you getting hurt?"


์ ์์ฐ
"Oh, I don't know."


์ํ๋
"Do you really like me?"


์ ์์ฐ
"..."

He answered on my behalf.

Wow, his ears are going to burst.

He's looking somewhere else, avoiding my eyes.


์ํ๋
"Why are you doing this to me?? No, since when??"


์ ์์ฐ
"4th grade..."


์ํ๋
"Fourth grader? Are you kidding me? Don't lie."

There's no way he'd liked me since the 4th grade.

Why are you bothering the person you like?


์ ์์ฐ
"It's true..."


์ํ๋
"..."


์ ์์ฐ
"That... That bothered you was meant to be a way to get you to look after me..."


์ํ๋
"..."


์ํ๋
"No, but did you say you were bullying me?"


์ ์์ฐ
"In the end, you looked after me."

He's looking straight into my eyes, completely different from before.

Is it true..?

I've heard that boys are clumsy at expressing themselves and end up harassing the girls they like, but

...


์ํ๋
"really?"


์ ์์ฐ
"..."

This time too, he answered with his ears.

It turns red all the way to the neck.

I still couldn't believe it, so I poked Jeon Won-woo's cheek.


์ ์์ฐ
"Hey, hey! You!"


์ํ๋
"Really???"

When I poked him, his face turned red.

This is really going to explode.

Now I have no choice but to believe that Jeon Won-woo likes me.


์ํ๋
"You really like me..."


์ ์์ฐ
"That's right."


์ํ๋
"..."

This time, I avoided Jeon Won-woo's gaze.

I feel a bit embarrassed...


์ ์์ฐ
"Give me the answer in a month."


์ ์์ฐ
"Get some points by then."


์ํ๋
"Uh, yeah..."




๊ถ์์
"Hanaya, are you going home right away?"


์ํ๋
"Yeah, yeah. I'm going home and going to sleep right away."


๊ถ์์
"What about Moon Jun-hwi?"


์ฅ์์ฐ
"Jun-Hwi decided to go to a cafe with me. We'll hang out together and then go in."


๋ฌธ์คํ
"Yeah, that's right."


๊ถ์์
"okay."


์ ์์ฐ
"Aren't you going to ask me?"


๊ถ์์
"What are you..."

A strange war of nerves unfolded between the two.


๊ถ์์
"Aren't you going straight home?"


์ ์์ฐ
"That's true, though."


๊ถ์์
"Okay, bye everyone."

Eunwoo and Junhwi were the first to leave the playground.

After that, Jeon Won-woo, Kwon Soon-young, and I came out in that order.
