“Good morning“

Donghyun plopped down in the seat next to Hana.


문하나
Hello.


김동현
Did you get home safely yesterday?


문하나
Yeah.

Hana answered Donghyun's words with no energy.

There's a slight sense of wariness and suspicion in her tone.


김동현
What, are you AI?


김동현
You being wary, haha


문하나
…

Damn, you're quick to catch on



이상혁
Hii-

Then, Shinhyuk approached.


문하나
Hello..!


김동현
Hyung, sit here-


김동현
I saved you a seat

Donghyun motioned Shinhyuk over to the seat beside him.


이상혁
What, haha


이상혁
You’ve been coming earlier lately, and now you’re even saving the seats


김동현
hehe


문하나
…(Suspicious. No matter how I look at it, suspicious)

Hana bit her drying lips as she scanned the mood between the two.


이상혁
?


등장인물
”Presentations will begin with Team 1. “

…

..

.




“Finally, it’s over-”


이상혁
You were good at presenting, huh?


문하나
Huh? Ah… no, not really..hehe


원도아
Hey! You were really good!!

Doa tapped Hana's shoulder and grinned brightly.


문하나
…Haha.

That senior had vanished all through the assignment, but on presentation day he showed up on time…

Well.. whether he was there or not, it probably wouldn't have mattered…

So cheerful…



원도아
Since our project’s done, how about an after-party~!?


문하나
?


원도아
A reward for the assignment!? Something like that!


이상혁
…Uh, well.. I don't really mind


원도아
Then we're going, right!?


원도아
Everyone keep your evenings free!!ㅋㅋ


김동현
?…


문하나
…

What a ridiculously sunny bunch.

In the end, thanks to Doa's coaxing, they ended up having an after-party for the assignment.


원도아
As expected, after-parties mean samgyeopsal and soju~!


김운학
Well said.


이상혁
…Why are you butting in when you're not even in our group;


김운학
Hey, we're taking the same class!


김운학
Feeling left out, aren't you?


이상혁
I'm the one who's embarrassed..;


문하나
..lolㅋㅋㅋㅋ


김동현
Well, it's nice having lots of people around



원도아
Alright, then the team leader will give the toast~

Doa raised her glass toward Shinhyuk


이상혁
?


김동현
You're the team leader, haha


이상혁
Ah..


김운학
Ahh, your arm's going to fall off, hyung


이상혁
…;;

Shinhyuk's eyes could be seen rolling.

Sometimes when he's that broken, he's really quite


문하나
…cute


이상혁
?


원도아
Oh, is that the toast? ㅇㅋ cute~


김운학
Cute~!!


김동현
Cu..te~ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Everyone clinked glasses at Hana's words.

'Cute' accidentally became the toast.


이상혁
hahahahaha


문하나
…(N..No.. that's not what I meant)

This is embarrassing

My stupid mouth gets me in trouble again..



이상혁
Thanks (whisper)

Shinhyuk whispered to Hana.


문하나
ㄴ..No!?


이상혁
Thanks for doing the toast instead, haha


문하나
Ah.. yes..(I said it wasn't the toastㅠㅠ)

No, honestly.. maybe it’d be better if they just thought it was a toast…



원도아
Senior Shinhyuk, aren't you drinking??

Doa asked, looking at Shinhyuk's empty glass.


이상혁
Ah, I don't usually drink


원도아
Eh?? Really??


원도아
Why not?


이상혁
I just wasn't that interested, so why bother?


원도아
Whoa, so you've never had a drink even after becoming an adult?


김운학
Like I said, really unusual, right?


김운학
So I figure hyung must be the type with a really nasty drunk side


이상혁
What..?ㅋㅋ


원도아
Wow… this good stuff.


원도아
So you've never even gotten to taste it??


이상혁
…Good stuff? That..?

Shinhyuk looked baffled.


김동현
Ah, right. You don't have anything to drink


김동현
Should I order you a cola?


이상혁
Ah, then that'd be nice


김동현
Auntie~


김동현
Could we get one bottle of cola~

Donghyun called out to the auntie in a friendly, easygoing voice.


문하나
…(Note to self: Shinhyuk senior drinks cola instead of alcohol, memo memo… )



해솜
Yes~ one bottle of cola~


문하나
?

Haesom came back carrying a cola and winked at Hana.


문하나
…(Why are you here..?)


해솜
(whisper: operation start!)


문하나
Huh?


해솜
Ah,


해솜
The cola is herㄷ

Thud-

Haesom leaned into Shinhyuk. Because of that, the water glass in front of Shinhyuk tipped over and soaked his clothes.


이상혁
!


해솜
Oh no, I'm so sorry!!

Haesom hurriedly brought a towel.


이상혁
Ah, it's okay


원도아
Oh no, your clothes are completely wet, senior?


문하나
…Uh, I do have a tracksuit. Should I lend it to you?


이상혁
It's okay, I'll just let it dry haha


해솜
I.. I'm really sorry…


해솜
There's a dryer inside, so if you give me your clothes I'll dry them and bring them back..ㅠㅠ


이상혁
Ah, it's okayㄴ..


문하나
Senior! Here. Please wear this

Hana had somehow gone and come back, handing Shinhyuk a short-sleeve shirt.


김동현
As expected of an athletics major.. you're really fast..


이상혁
Uh.., thanks haha


해솜
Oh then, the changing room..! I'll show you the way


이상혁
Ah, okay




You can change here and come back out!


이상혁
Ah, yes, thank you

Click.-

…



이상혁
That's a strange T-shirt


이상혁
Do they like hamsters..ㅋㅋ

Shinhyuk burst out laughing at the character shirt he'd never wear.

He thought the taste was kind of cute.


Knock knock-

등장인물
Man| May I come in?


이상혁
!


이상혁
Ah, yes!

Click.-

등장인물
Man| I'm really sorry, it's because of our part-timer…

The man who seemed to be the owner bowed his head to Shinhyuk.


이상혁
Ah, it's fine


이상혁
Mistakes happen

등장인물
Man| I'll dry the clothes in the dryer, and I'm sorry again


이상혁
Yesㅎㅎ thank you




”Boss! How is it?“

등장인물
Man| ? How is what


해솜
The man in the changing room is a guy!

등장인물
Man| Not my type?


해솜
No, not your type, boss!


해솜
Do they seem like your type?

등장인물
Man| What?


해솜
Actually, my friend likes that senior, but they seem kind of like your type too, just guessing..

등장인물
Man| Huh? Seriously, why are you asking me that


해솜
Your radar is 100% accurate, boss~


해솜
So I thought maybe you'd know..-

등장인물
Man| Hey, you little brat.

등장인물
Man| What if it's not and you go around saying things like that carelessly

등장인물
Man| If they get outed, are you going to take responsibility?; sigh


해솜
Ah, yeah, that's true..(thinking)

등장인물
Man| Seriously.. you’re unusual too. Your thought process isn't normal..;

등장인물
Man| Anyway, from my eyes, it doesn't look like that

등장인물
Man| Enough, stop slacking off and get back to work


해솜
...Y-yes, sir..,

Jingle..-


명재현

박성호

명재현
You want us to join?


명재현
I'm totally down for that~


이상혁
…ㅎㅎ;


문하나

이상혁
Looks like I'm not getting in early..

A tired look appeared on Shinhyuk's face.



명재현
Aaaah-! Ah!


명재현
Wonhak's favorite random game! What game~?!


김운학
Dual motion!

…

Thanks to Jeong Jaehyun's insane social skills, a drinking table started up with a combo no one could quite make sense of.



원도아
Aha~ Hana got picked again~~?


문하나
..Huh?; M.. me..?


원도아
Drink, drink!! Kyah-hyah-hyak!!


김운학
Uuh.. uh.. why is that woman so strong..(nauseous)


이상혁
She's a complete drunkard..


한동민

명재현
Hey, why? I like her though? Huh? I like you.


박성호

문하나

해솜

문하나

해솜
This won't do. I'm getting off work soon, so let's go together


문하나

해솜

Haesom came back carrying the clothes Shinhyuk had left in the dryer.



문하나

문하나

이상혁
…Guys, I'm going first


이상혁
Don't drink too much and head home, okay?


명재현
Huh? Where are you going, Lee Shinhyuk~!!


명재현

Shinhyuk laid his card on the table.

Shinhyuk ran into Haesom on his way out.


해솜

해솜

Haesom handed Shinhyuk the clothes with a relieved look.


이상혁
Ah, I forgot about that.. thank you


해솜
Ah, yes..!!


이상혁
Then,

Haesom stopped Shinhyuk as he was about to turn around.


해솜
…That!


해솜

Ah, okay


해솜
Excuse me. (bow)


이상혁

What a strange person..

Jingle..-

“Hana, snap out of it”


문하나

Hana, who had been squatting down, just slowly lifted her head.


이상혁

문하나

Shinhyuk walked while supporting Hana.

문하나
