Fall in Love with Sunghoon
Rescuer
12:10 AM
Kim Riri
"There's strawberry milk! Whose is it?"
Choi Shine
"I-I have it."
Quickly, Shine grabbed the strawberry milk that was in Riri's grasp.
Riri was confused because Shine looked a little panicked. Then she turned to Shine's desk.
There was a piece of paper with quite neat writing.
Riri read the contents of the paper.
Kim Riri
"'No matter how hard you try to avoid me, I'll keep chasing you.' .... Who?"
Shine immediately turned pale. Cold sweat began to form on his forehead.
Choi Shine
"Um, that's from—"
Kim Riri
"You... already have a boyfriend???"
Riri was very excited.
Choi Shine
"N-no!!" Shine immediately denied it.
Kim Riri
"So what's this? Okay, just admit you have a boyfriend."
Choi Shine
"No!"
Kim Riri
"Really, you didn't tell me. Tell me who the guy is."
Shine chuckled. Riri had misunderstood this time. However, for now, he was safe from suspicion regarding Sunghoon.
Choi Shine
"N-nothing."
Kim Riri
"Liar. You're so salty, don't you know?"
Choi Shine
"I-I'm not salty."
Kim Riri
"Come on, tell me. Don't tell me—"
Kim Tae
"What could it be?"
Riri and Shine were surprised to hear Tae's voice suddenly appear.
Kim Riri
"Why are you back again?"
Tae didn't answer Riri's question.
Kim Riri
"Heh. I asked you."
Kim Tae
"I want to take that paper."
Tae pointed to the paper held by Shine.
Shine glared. What did Tae mean? Was he really the one who gave him the paper? But wasn't it from Sunghoon?
Kim Riri
"Is that from you?"
Tae nodded lightly, taking the paper from Shine's hand.
Kim Riri
"Who are they?"
Tae fell silent. Shine looked at Tae seriously.
But Tae shook his head slowly.
Kim Tae
"I left the paper here because I was afraid the wind would blow it away.... I'll go back first."
Tae walked away from their class.
Riri breathed a sigh of relief. She really couldn't imagine Tae liking Shine.
Kim Riri
"Fortunately. I can't imagine you being my sister-in-law."
Riri rubbed her forehead.
He sat down in his seat to continue the lesson after the break.
Shine was still frozen in place.
So, whose paper is it? Sunghoon's or Tae's?
Shine sighed. He felt dizzy because everything was so sudden.
Shine opened his phone and opened his room chat with Tae.
Choi Shine
— Come home from school, wait for me on the rooftop.
Shine put her phone in her bag as the teacher who was going to teach entered the class.
Kim Tae
"Why?"
Tae approached Shine who had his back to him.
Shine was silent. A gentle breeze gently brushed her hair.
There was a moment of silence between them. Shine hadn't answered Tae yet.
Tae stared at Shine's beautiful face.
Choi Shine
"That letter earlier... wasn't yours, was it?"
Shine looked at Tae. His mood had changed a bit now.
Tae turned his gaze to the tall buildings and the blue sky.
Kim Tae
"You already know.... Why ask?"
Shine chuckled, his gaze following Tae's.
Choi Shine
"Are you close to Kak Sunghoon?"
Tae turned his head when he heard Sunghoon's name being called.
Kim Tae
"It was."
Choi Shine
"Earlier?"
Tae nodded.
Kim Tae
"Brother Sunghoon is really cool, he's smart, he's also good at playing basketball."
Kim Tae
"But, he also has a bad attitude. Whatever he wants, he has to get."
Shine looked a little surprised. Really? But Sunghoon didn't look like it.
Kim Tae
"The one who put the paper down was... Brother Sunghoon."
This time, Shine wasn't too surprised. Because who else could it be if not Sunghoon?
Silence greeted them again.
The wind was getting stronger and dusk was starting to fall.
Kim Tae
"Do you like Kak Sunghoon?"
Tae stared deeply into Shine. He just wanted to make sure of this.
Shine was at a loss for an answer. Honestly, he didn't like Sunghoon.
She also never thought about liking Sunghoon. Sunghoon was too far away to reach, Shine had already let him go.
Shine's cell phone rang, indicating an incoming message.
Kim Tae
"Who?"
Shine checked it. It was from Sunghoon. Should he answer it?
Shine shook his head. He put his phone in his pocket.
Her phone rang again. This time it was a ring that forced her to pick up.
Kim Tae
"Just pick it up."
Shine shook his head slowly.
Choi Shine
"No need."
Tae started to pressure Shine. Because it would be rude to ignore the phone.
Just waiting for the regret that will come to Tae when he finds out who called Shine.
Choi Shine
"Hello?" Shine said softly.
Sunghoon
_"Are you still at school?"_
Shine looked thoughtful.
Choi Shine
"Still," Shine replied doubtfully.
Tae looked at Shine. He was starting to have a bad feeling.
Sunghoon
_"Where are you? I looked in the library but you're not there."_
Shine glanced at Tae. The atmosphere between them was a little awkward.
Choi Shine
"I'm about to go home."
Shine was reluctant to reveal his current position, as it could lead to a long-term situation if Sunghoon actually went to the rooftop.
Sunghoon
_"Meet."_
Sunghoon's words made Shine turn towards the rooftop door. Cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.
Kim Tae
"How are you—"
Tae also turned towards the rooftop door. He smiled lopsidedly when he saw Sunghoon standing there.
