Jeon Jungkook's secret love method

The beginning of unrequited love

It started like this. Yeo-ju and Jeong-guk didn't know each other. What on earth could have caused their relationship, which they had always thought would last, to change like this?

I will now gradually unfold that story.

It's a story about loving each other while making a corner of your heart ache.

Today was a bright, dazzlingly sunny day. On that bright day, our class had a physical activity with another class. We mixed our classes and played dodgeball, the most basic of all basics. I love physical education, so I made a firm resolution to work even harder.

Let's get started. Get ready!

Our team got the ball first. The opposing team was all running backwards, preparing to dodge, when one guy hit two players with the ball right from the start. His name was Jeon Jungkook. He was famous at school for being handsome, good at sports, rich, and perfect in every way.

Jeon Jungkook swiftly caught the incoming ball and slammed it into the opposing team's defense. His athleticism is second to none. I even caught and killed him, but Jeon Jungkook was so good that even I was amazed.

So, as I was absentmindedly staring, I saw a ball flying towards me. Unable to dodge, I covered my face with my hand. However, my hand felt nothing, so I slowly opened my eyes and saw Jeon Jungkook standing in front of me, precariously holding the ball.

전정국

Hey, are you okay? Be careful when you're playing dodgeball, or you'll get hurt if you take your eyes off the ball.

김여주

Thank you for your concern. I'll work hard without taking my eyes off you!

After hearing my answer, Jungkook looked back at me, ruffled my hair, and returned to focusing on dodgeball. Was that when I started liking Jeon Jungkook?

After that game of dodgeball, I started liking Jungkook. No, rather than liking him, it might be more accurate to say I have a crush on him. Jungkook is usually popular, so it's hard to get close to him, but he does say hello to me occasionally.

My friend Bae Joo-hyun, who I've had a crush on for months, keeps telling me to confess to her every day. I don't mind hearing those confessions anymore. Frustrated with me ignoring her and not confessing to her, she went to Jeon Jung-guk's class and said she'd confess to me herself.

I kept holding on, but for some reason, his strength was so strong that instead of holding on, I ended up being dragged along. As I continued to be dragged along, I arrived at Jeon Jungkook's class, and Joohyun immediately called Jeon Jungkook over and made him stand in front of her.

배주현

Are you Jeon Jungkook? You're handsome.

김여주

Bae Joo-hyun, let's go. Please stop.

배주현

Now, let me get to the point. Kim Yeo-ju likes you. This is the first time I've seen her like someone, but she's been having a crush on me for months and it's frustrating, so I'm telling you.

전정국

Kim Yeo-ju, do you like me?

김여주

No, that's not it, yeah I like it

When I honestly told him I liked him, everyone around me whispered, and Jeon Jungkook's expression was completely unreadable. I was a little excited. After all, despite being surrounded by girls, there was no reason for him to greet me.

Jeon Jungkook hesitated to answer, perhaps because he was thinking too much. Or perhaps he just wanted to escape this situation. It was me who broke the flow. I had decided to end this situation. So, as I slowly walked away, trying to get out, Jeon Jungkook opened his mouth, which had been silently closed.

전정국

Sorry, but I have no interest in dating. The reason I've been so nice to you is simply because of my personality. If you still like me even if I dump you now, you'd better get over it.

My heart sank. I expected it, but I didn't realize it would be this heartbreaking. After hearing the answer, I immediately ran to my class. Bae Joo-hyun offered me comfort, not comforting me, but telling me to accept the situation, since the outcome would be the same anyway.

From then on, I stayed in my class, avoiding eye contact with Jeon Jungkook every time I ran into him and even changing locations. Coincidentally, my family had to transfer to a different high school for family reasons, and I joined the new class with the intention of completely forgetting about Jeon Jungkook.

김여주

Hi, I'm Kim Yeo-ju. I transferred from another region so there's a lot I don't know, so I'd appreciate it if you could tell me more.

They cheered and talked about becoming friends. After that, I had an even more enjoyable school life than the last time. I completely forgot about Jeon Jungkook. Very completely.

담임 선생님

Everyone, sit down. There's a transfer student in our class.

임나연

You're the first transfer student to our class after Yeoju! What was it like when Yeoju first transferred?

김여주

They looked really weird

담임 선생님

If you don't want to write a reflection paper, keep quiet. Transfer students, come in.

When the transfer student arrived, the kids cheered, just like they did when I transferred last time. But suddenly, one person came to mind: Jeon Jungkook. I tried to deny it, thinking it couldn't be me, but it kept bothering me, so I slumped down on my desk in frustration.

Just as I was about to lie down and sleep, I heard the introduction of the transfer student. It turned out that the transfer student was indeed Jeon Jungkook, whom I had been denying.

전정국

My name is Jeon Jungkook and I transferred to this school today.
