How to love your blue

#13. I didn’t want to believe in fate or anything like that, but

“Where do you want to go first?”

김여주 image

김여주

Umm,

김여주 image

김여주

Umm, I want to go to everything, what do I do..

김동현 image

김동현

Then we have to go to everything hahaha

김여주 image

김여주

…Yeah!!

The festival day had finally arrived.

Most of the third-years were in self-study, and the hallways were swarming with first- and second-years.

Han Dongmin hadn’t shown his face even once since morning because of performance rehearsal.

I wanted to enjoy the festival together, but I guess I’m a little disappointed too

…

“Face painting?”

김동현 image

김동현

The art club is doing face painting again

김여주 image

김여주

They did that last year too?

김동현 image

김동현

Yeah

김동현 image

김동현

Last year they did special makeup with a Halloween theme though

김여주 image

김여주

That one?

Yeoju pointed to the person getting makeup done in the corner.

김동현 image

김동현

Whoa, shit;

김동현 image

김동현

Geez..

김동현 image

김동현

How is the makeup getting better and better every year

학생

Art Club| That one? haha

학생

Art Club| We’re doing makeup for the haunted house kids haha

학생

Art Club| We collaborated with another club this time

김여주 image

김여주

That’s amazing..

김동현 image

김동현

Last year’s haunted house only wore masks, so what’s going on this year..

김여주 image

김여주

Looks like they’re dead serious

김동현 image

김동현

for real

김여주 image

김여주

Should we go too?

김동현 image

김동현

…

김동현 image

김동현

…Seriously?

“It was a haunted house”

김동현 image

김동현

…

김동현 image

김동현

It definitely seems scarier now

김여주 image

김여주

…

김동현 image

김동현

…Hey?

김여주 image

김여주

…

김여주 image

김여주

…Huh?

김동현 image

김동현

It’s frozen solid..

김여주 image

김여주

Ah.. uh…

김여주 image

김여주

I thought my heart was going to stop..

김동현 image

김동현

hahaha

김여주 image

김여주

…When was our performance again?

김동현 image

김동현

After lunch, so

김동현 image

김동현

If you want a front-row seat, we have to go early

김동현 image

김동현

We’ve still got an hour, so do you want to stop somewhere else first?

김여주 image

김여주

Where?

김동현 image

김동현

Hmm, the library club?

김동현 image

김동현

I think that’s the only place we haven’t been to yet

김여주 image

김여주

What do the library club do?

김동현 image

김동현

Tarot or something? Anyway, I think they said they were doing that

김여주 image

김여주

Tarot?

…

..

.

“What would you like me to read?”

김여주 image

김여주

Uh.. huh?

학생

Library Club| We do schoolwork, love fortune, and wealth fortune~

김여주 image

김여주

Ah..

김여주 image

김여주

Ah.. umm

김동현 image

김동현

Love fortune

Donghyun gave Yeoju a little nudge with his nose.

김여주 image

김여주

Ah.. yes, please do that..(flushed)

Kim Donghyun.. he’s fast at times like this..

학생

Library Club| Sure haha, is there someone on your mind right now?

김여주 image

김여주

…Huh!?

김여주 image

김여주

W-well, do I have to tell you that too?

학생

Library Club| Yes~ It changes the card interpretation!

김동현 image

김동현

Hey, you knowㅋㅋ

Donghyun snickered and nudged Yeoju’s shoulder again.

김여주 image

김여주

…ahem,

김여주 image

김여주

Yes, there is..

학생

Library Club| Then please think of that person and draw only 3 cards~

김여주 image

김여주

…

…Han Dongmin

…Han Dongmin…Han Dongmin…

…Han Dongmin…Han Dongmin…Han Dongmin…

김여주 image

김여주

…

Yeoju squeezed her eyes shut and repeated Dongmin’s name.

김동현 image

김동현

…(trying not to laugh)

Isn’t it way too obvious.. hahaha

Donghyun could imagine the name circling around inside Kim Yeoju’s head.

It was so transparent he could see right through it

It made him laugh.

I can’t pass up a good chance like this

Ding.-

김동현 image

김동현

haha

김여주 image

김여주

I drew them all..

Yeoju placed the 3 cards she’d drawn on the desk.

학생

Library Club| Yes, I’ll interpret them

학생

Library Club| Umm

김여주 image

김여주

…(nervous)

Why am I nervous over this

학생

Library Club| Umm, yes..-

Seeing the student hesitate, they started to feel uneasy.

김여주 image

김여주

..Is it bad?

학생

Library Club| Ah, no! It’s not bad, more like…

학생

Library Club| It’s just a little unusual..

김동현 image

김동현

What is itㅋㅋ What on earth

김여주 image

김여주

…Huh?

학생

Library Club| The Death card and the Devil card are showing up a lot..

김동현 image

김동현

Devil? If it’s Devil, isn’t that the devil?

김여주 image

김여주

…Is that bad?

학생

Library Club| Ah, the Devil card in love readings means a strong attraction, so I wouldn’t say it’s bad..!!

학생

Library Club| And the Death card can mean death, but if you interpret it differently, it means moving on to a new stage!

학생

Library Club| In love, that means a new love or the development of a relationship!

김여주 image

김여주

..relationship development?

김동현 image

김동현

Oh..~

학생

Library Club| Yes, to explain them in the order they were drawn, someone with strong attraction represented by the Devil has appeared in your life, where a new beginning and turning point have come!

학생

Library Club| Lastly, the Three of Swords you drew is the future.. hmm, the future won’t be smooth, but!

학생

Library Club| If you get through it well, it looks like a flow where you can grow stronger!

It felt like they were wrapping it up in a hurry.

김여주 image

김여주

Ah.. yes

That feels kind of unsettling..

김동현 image

김동현

Well, tarot is just for fun anyway

학생

Library Club| ..Then, would you like to draw a advice card?

…

김동현 image

김동현

…There sure are a lot of swords

김여주 image

김여주

…haha

학생

Library Club| …

학생

Library Club| …Should I interpret it for you?

김여주 image

김여주

No…

김동현 image

김동현

…

김동현 image

김동현

Ah, it’s almost time for the performance?

Donghyun said it like he was breaking the ice.

김동현 image

김동현

Should we go watch the performance?

김여주 image

김여주

..Yeah!

I don’t need to get gloomy over some silly cards!

“Hyung, why are you only coming now!”

김동현 image

김동현

We were just sightseeing around the festival haha

한동민 image

한동민

I knew it when you skipped rehearsal

김동현 image

김동현

ㅎㅎ

한동민 image

한동민

…Sigh

김여주 image

김여주

…

김여주 image

김여주

…What, did you do your hair?

This is the first time I’ve seen Han Dongmin with his hair up.

Does performing make someone look this different

It feels unfamiliar, so it feels weird

한동민 image

한동민

Ah, uh..

Han Dongmin scratched the back of his head, embarrassed too.

His wandering gaze kept rolling away from one spot.

김운학 image

김운학

Anyway, hyungs! We’re starting soon, so hurry over!!

김동현 image

김동현

Ah, I’m nervous~

한동민 image

한동민

I’ll be back

김여주 image

김여주

Yeah!

I waved at them.

Unlike Dongmin’s cool little wave as he turned away, the back of his head was red.

So Han Dongmin is nervous too

Unlike him..

I thought he was cute.

김동현 image

김동현

Ah, right

Donghyun, who was turning away, U-turned back to Yeoju.

김여주 image

김여주

?

김동현 image

김동현

You have to make sure to record this, okay? (whisper)

Donghyun handed his phone to Yeoju and whispered softly.

Donghyun’s behavior, as if it were a secret, seemed like an unplanned scheme.

He gave off the smell of someone who didn’t know.

김여주 image

김여주

…Oh, got it!

…

..

.

Once the lights went out, even the auditorium started to look like part of a stage setup.

As the performance time approached, the kids inside the auditorium began to bustle around.

They all waited for the stage the same way, and their tension seemed to spread to me too.

김여주 image

김여주

…Ah, why am I nervous,,

김여주 image

김여주

They’ll do well, right..?

While holding Donghyun’s phone camera, my mouth kept drying out.

Several songs passed by as we waited for their turn.

This is amazing, a festival..

A performance is such a heart-racing thing

“Lastly, we have the band club’s performance.”

김여주 image

김여주

Wow!!!!

Han Dongmin walked out in front of the stage.

한동민 image

한동민

…(embarrassed)

김여주 image

김여주

Ah!!! Han Dongmin is so handsome!!!!

한동민 image

한동민

…Ugh, seriously (muttering)

Dongmin pressed a hand to his forehead.

The moment he got on stage, that unmistakably confident voice was so familiar that he looked over—and it was Kim Yeoju again.

Even in gym class, I always wonder where that kind of volume comes from in such a small frame

That voice always came toward me.

And then came another side effect.

I couldn’t hear anything except that voice now.

No, to be exact

I mean only that girl was visible to me.

The fact that the one who kept stealing my gaze like that

I never knew not hating it would become my weakness.

…

한동민 image

한동민

김여주 image

김여주

…

I already knew he could sing well, but,

Han Dongmin on stage shone even brighter.

Like a jewel catching the light and revealing itself, a glossy brilliance spread everywhere.

He’s someone who shines on his own.

He always was; the Han Dongmin now and the Han Dongmin before

was someone who lit himself up.

It couldn’t be helped that I was drawn to that light, so

I blamed it on fate.

Maybe I already knew the result.

I didn’t want to believe in fate and all that, but

once again, when I saw the light because of you, I realized.

Even if I closed my eyes in the illusion that I’d grown closer the moment I took one step toward you

I was sure

I would have been drawn to you.

It’s been a while

ㅎㅎ

ㅎㅎ..

Sorry

I’ve been busy with real life, so it’s been a while since I came by..

I feel like I’ll just pop in and out again… anyway… still… I’ll keep poking my head in and slipping around and then leave… yes…

***For reference, I don’t know how to read tarot***

The tarot readings here are amateur, so if you object, you’re wrongㅇ

Anyway, that’s it for now.
