#9 Boyfriend who is like a dog


The alleyway leading home

Yeojun, who had a hard time watching Jungkook's laughter and smiling face all day long

As I trudged home, I heard a voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar.


전정국
Hmph... In-kyung, is it comfortable here? Huh?

Jungkook with a cigarette in his mouth and Inkyung smiling in his arms.

김여준
........

It feels like something is stuck inside.

At the same time, I rushed forward without even knowing what I was doing.


전정국
.........

김여준
J...Jungkook....


전정국
.........

Yeojun froze at the cold gaze

at last

He hung his head low and mumbled softly.

김여준
Smoking is bad for your health...

To think the best thing you could say was cigarettes

Yeojun felt even more embarrassed, but he was deeply hurt by Jungkook's reaction.


전정국
What does it matter to you? Just go your own way.

김여준
....I have something to tell you.. Can you spare a moment..?


전정국
.......


아인경
Don't go! Who am I supposed to play with...?

김여준
Um... if you're busy, just the next...


전정국
Ah In-kyung, stay away.


아인경
Huh...? Really? Did you say that to me?

Jungkook pushed away In-kyung, who was holding his hand, and went out of the alley.

김여준
........

Yeojun followed behind, wary of him.


전정국
What do you have to say?

김여준
Ah... uh... that...

Actually, I just didn't like seeing Jungkook with another girl.

It feels strange and embarrassing to say that.

While I was hesitating like that


전정국
hey

Jungkook spoke up.


전정국
Do you think I'm an idiot?

김여준
....what..?


전정국
I confessed to you and got rejected, so why are you coming to me?

김여준
........


전정국
You want to be friends now?

김여준
......Jungkook


전정국
It's not even funny. You said you weren't interested in me.


전정국
Am I wrong?

김여준
It's because... I'm a fool... I wasn't thinking back then...


전정국
What do you want to say? Are you asking me to be your girlfriend?

김여준
I, I don't know what I'm feeling either, but you keep...!


전정국
Fuck, hey

김여준
.........

Yeojun flinched greatly at Jungkook's curse.

Jungkook continues speaking, undeterred by that.


전정국
Go, I dropped it for you.


전정국
Ask someone else to fill in for Park Jimin, it's not me.

Jungkook drifted away

at last

김여준
......Kim Yeo-jun is seriously the worst..

It is Yeojun who is left all alone.

The next chapter is from Jungkook's perspective.
