How long are you going to chase me?

I don’t like one-sided love.


At last, the weekday had passed and the weekend had come. It was also the only day I was free from school and cram school all the time.

Whenever I had time, I always went to the library near my house. It was the space where I could feel most at ease.


나여주
(There are quite a few people here today too.)

(Choosing a book)


나여주
This is the one I read last time.

After wandering around for a while, I spotted someone familiar.


나여주
Tsk, that back looks familiar.


김운학
...


나여주
(tap tap.) Um..


김운학
Huh?


나여주
It's you! What are you doing here?


김운학
What do you mean, what am I doing here? I'm at the library to look at books, what else.


나여주
We'd never run into each other here before, so I wondered what was up.


김운학
This is my first time coming here.


나여주
I see. Anyway, I'm leaving.


김운학
You're just going to leave?


나여주
Huh? Weren't you planning to read alone??


김운학
If I hadn't run into you, I would've.

(Goes to sit on the sofa)


김운학
Read with me.


나여주
We're together all the time at school, and now even here...


김운학
If you don't want to, forget it.


나여주
No, I mean, it's not that I don't want to. (Gets a book)

(30 minutes later)


나여주
Ugh. I'm sleepy.


김운학
You still didn't sleep again.


나여주
These days they’re pushing us hard at the academy because it's exam season, so what am I supposed to do? I can't exactly not go to cram school.


김운학
At this rate you're going to wreck your body.


나여주
I'm fine now, so it's okay!


김운학
Hey, can you even call that saying something?


나여주
Why are you getting mad?


김운학
If this looks like I'm mad to you, that's serious.


나여주
Anyway, don't worry about it. I'll handle my own stamina myself.

(Goes back to concentrating on the book)


나여주
Hmm.


김운학
Are you awake now?


나여주
Almost.


김운학
You still look sleepy.


나여주
Don't underestimate my willpower.


김운학
What are you talking about? If you're tired, just sleep.


나여주
No! Sleep is too precious to waste. I should be doing something.


김운학
You're amazing, really.

(Another 5 minutes later)


나여주
(Dozing off, head bobbing.)


김운학
...I knew this would happen.


나여주
(His head slowly tilts.)


김운학
! (Supports him with one shoulder)


나여주
Zzz...


김운학
How can you sleep like that? It must be uncomfortable.

(After thinking for a moment, drapes his outerwear over him.)


김운학
Yeah, sleep well.

-

(Before long, it's 3 p.m.)


김운학
You must have been really tired. You've been sleeping straight for two hours.

Just then, An Taemin comes into the library. Seeing him, Wunhak furrows his brow.


김운학
What is that bastard doing here..

안태민
(A lot of noise) Ugh, if only I hadn't had Korean class work to do, I wouldn't have come here. This is so damn annoying.

남학생 B
Let's finish up fast and go to the PC room.


김운학
It's really noisy.

안태민
Hey, I think the book we're looking for is over there.


김운학
!

(For now, covers his face with his outerwear.)

안태민
We meet here. Nice seeing you, man!


김운학
I'm not glad to see you, so just get lost.

안태민
Tch, you're so damn irritating.

안태민
But the one beside you... is she your girlfriend?


김운학
(Putting an arm around the heroine's shoulder) It's not like that.

안태민
Who are you to touch her like that?? Let me see your face.


김운학
Don't you dare lay a hand on me.

안태민
No, okay, I get it. I'm too scared to say anything hahaha

With the noise, the heroine stirs a little, and Wunhak's irritation only sharpens.


김운학
Don't mess with the sleeping girl and get lost.

안태민
Fine, I'm going.

Once An Taemin disappears completely from view, Wunhak's expression softens a little. He was glad they hadn't gotten the wrong idea that he and the heroine were dating. But there was still a problem.


김운학
Now I'm worried about what he'll run his mouth about.


나여주
Mm...


김운학
You're awake?


나여주
Ah, that feels great. I slept so well! h


김운학
That's good then.


김운학
(I don't even know. As long as he got to rest comfortably, that's enough, I guess.)
