The reason I stay by your side
That transfer student I've only heard about!


When I opened my eyes, I felt the morning sunlight shining through the window and the gap between the curtains.

윤여주
Ugh...

I was clearly sleeping at my desk

윤여우
I think my mom moved it for me.

윤여주
under...

윤여주
I don't want to go to school...

As I came out to the living room, I saw my mom getting ready to go out.

어머니
When I saw Yoon Yeo-ju yesterday, she was sleeping at her desk.

어머니
Your posture is bad. From now on, if you feel sleepy, stop studying and go to bed.

어머니
I almost broke my arms and legs moving you, kid.

윤여주
haha...

어머니
Hurry up and eat breakfast and go to school~

윤여주
Oh yeah..

윤여주
I'll be back..!

I roughly prepared myself and as soon as I left the house, reality hit me.

Ah, another new day.

윤여주
Hmm...

I hope nothing happens today.....

As soon as I entered the classroom, I could feel the class atmosphere.

윤여주
What the... (mumbles)

The children who were noisy yesterday despite it being the first day of school are sitting at their desks as quietly as mice today.

I looked around the classroom and thought about what was going on for two seconds, and then I realized something had happened!

The teacher banged on the desk with a ruler at the podium.

선생님
Hey, you hurry up and sit down!!!

윤여주
!!!!!!!

윤여주
Yeah...

The teacher looked at me and suddenly yelled at me.

I wasn't even late...ㅜㅜ

선생님
Those bastards...

선생님
I'm already in my second year of high school...

선생님
School started yesterday..! Huh? You're having a fight???!!!

선생님
According to Kim Taehyung, a kid in our class started the fight first...

윤여주
' taehyoung kim..??! '

김철수
No, teacher, but didn't he steal it from my cigarette pocket first?

선생님
What? Cigarettes??

선생님
Are you proud of smoking? You skipped class too... Follow me, you brat!

김철수
Yes!! No, it was 7th period yesterday and I went to the PC room and on the way back with my friends, a bunch of boys from high school blocked the road so I told them to get out of the way but those hot guys started to piss me off first so I held it in and that bastard Kim Taek put his hand in my pocket and took out a cigarette!!! (I'm so desperate and upset)

김철수
Ah teacher~~!~!~!

선생님
And all the kids involved in yesterday's work, come out!!!

김철수
What the f*ck!!!!!

bang!

Kim Cheol-su slammed open the back door and went out, apparently angry.

After a while, I overheard two girls sitting in front of me whispering to each other.

The content was like this.

Yesterday, the boys in our class were coming out of the PC room and walking down the alley when some boys from the other high school blocked their way.

He said that he asked them to move out of the way, but instead of moving out of the way, they laughed and made a fuss.

The boys in our class tried hard to hold back, but Kim Tae-hyung nonchalantly took a cigarette from Kim Cheol-su's pocket, causing Kim Cheol-su to explode.

Anyway, I just got in trouble for fighting with some childish and scary kids.

윤여주
...

I stared blankly at the back door.

Namgo...

윤여주
Yesterday... (mumble)


박지민
'More than that, my friend,


박지민
Do you have 500 won?'

Yesterday, those kids were also boys...

Then maybe??

Is this something that happened after I passed?


So, that means Kim Taehyung was there...

윤여주
ha...

윤여주
If I had been just a little bit late, it could have been a disaster... (mumbles)

Tirolirori→<Break time bell>

A few minutes later, the bell rang to signal break time.

A group of foxes approached me.

윤여우
Hey. Yoon Yeo-ju

윤여주
...

윤여우
I didn't eat breakfast

윤여우
Go to the store and buy some bread

윤여주
Sigh...

okay

I'm more scared of these guys and I hate them.

On the way back to class after buying bread at the store

As I turned the corner, I suddenly stopped in front of someone's chest.

윤여주
..!!!

???
Oh, are you okay?

Who is it... he asked and raised his head.

윤여주
!!!!!🙊


The child's face looking down at me was so handsome that I stopped in surprise.

???
Sorry...


???
I didn't know you were coming out

윤여주
Uh... yes...

???
...I'm Kim Seok-jin, a third-year student.

???
You're in second grade, right? Go back to class quickly. I'll ring the bell.

윤여주
yes...


김석진
Come in. Sorry~

Seokjin, my senior, tapped my shoulder and went up the stairs.

윤여주
and...

윤여주
He's handsome... (mumbles)

I stared blankly until my senior's back disappeared.

The teacher asked me what I was doing here

After roughly brushing it off as nothing, I quickly went into the classroom.

윤여주
Choco Sora Bread...here

윤여우
Thanks~

김오른팔
Yaya Yoon Yeo-ju

김오른팔
Don't you know Kim Taehyung?

윤여주
..uh?

박왼팔
Does he understand?!!!

김오른팔
Ah... I... don't... know...?

김오른팔
Anyway, he's transferring

김오른팔
Be careful not to get caught

윤여주
Uh.. thanks for letting me know

김오른팔
What are you talking about; I was just saying it?!!!

윤여주
Oh yeah.....

The bell rang and the teacher came in.

The teacher, with a dark expression on his face, sighed and said.

선생님
Oh... Seriously

선생님
Hey guys, please don't think about it.

선생님
Teacher, my head hurts so much I'm going to die.

반애들
yes~

The teacher scratched his head for a moment, then opened his book and began the lesson.

After all the boring morning classes are over

I didn't wait and waited

Lunchtime has arrived.

윤여우
Hey, Yoon Yeo-ju

윤여우
Let's get our meals

윤여주
Ah... yeah

김오른팔
We're going to the store~^^

박왼팔
Yoon Yeo-ju: I don't eat... I have a bad stomach.

I stood in line to go to the cafeteria.

Shiva, that's why I'm here

'Kuhehehehehehehehehe'

'Your personality seems to be bad...'

While I waited, I kept my mouth shut and listened to the other children's stories that were coming from close by.

윤여주
...

윤여주
'I think a second grader got into a fight with another kid today.'

After waiting for a while, someone behind me got angry and hit me on the back.

윤여주
...!

I looked back in surprise

윤여주
'He's...'

김철수
What the heck!!!

Kim Cheol-su, who caused a ruckus in the morning

There were several men standing there, some of whom were friends of the boy.

애들
...

The kids standing around me all froze and stared blankly at me.

애들
Hey... I apologize. Cheolsu...

김철수
Why me



김요한
Yaaaa... You hit the wrong one

Kim Cheol-su's friends urged him to apologize because they didn't know him, but Kim Cheol-su never apologized.

And yet he took me for a ride.

Then I heard another thing

김철수
He's the loner in our class

김철수
I'm embarrassed so I won't apologize

Then, my friends looked back and forth between me and Kim Cheol-su and apologized on my behalf.



김요한
Hey, sorry, he's a little sensitive right now.

애들
that's right...

애들
He's originally like that... but he's not like that

애들
Uh um... I'm sorry..!

After I apologized and the kids asked for my understanding,

I went into the cafeteria.

I also went into the cafeteria after seeing the backs of those kids?

The cafeteria was bustling with the third-year seniors and second-year students who were already eating.

I received my meal, holding a plate in each hand.

I was looking around to see if there was any space left, with my arms shaking as I held it in both hands.



김석진
...

My eyes met with senior Kim Seok-jin, who was eating.


김석진
..!

Senior Seokjin looked at the plates in my hands, put down his chopsticks, and stood up.

윤여주
..?!!

I had no idea, but as expected, my senior took the two plates I was holding and asked me where I wanted to sit.

윤여주
Uh...you don't have to do that...


김석진
It's heavy.



김석진
Where will you sit?

윤여주
Uh, I...

윤여주
hey..!

I quickly found an empty space at least four spaces wide and pointed to it with my finger.

The senior nodded and went to his seat.

윤여주
...

I followed behind my senior.

The senior who placed the plate on the table asked.



김석진
Are you eating all of this?

I was taken aback by the sudden question, so I waved my hand and said no.

윤여주
Ah..no!


김석진
Then why did you get two plates?

윤여주
Um... that's...

While I was racking my brain on what to say

Yun Yeo-woo and Kim Oh-reun-pal came to me.

김오른팔
Hey Yoon Yeo-ju!!!

윤여우
Miss, why did you come to this corner today?

윤여우
omg....



김석진
.......?

The two looked surprised when they saw Seokjin.

윤여주
...bon appetit

I was so uncomfortable with this situation that I said hello first and passed by three people.

윤여주
ah

윤여주
Thank you for your help, senior....


김석진
...


김석진
♠★#→♠^♧/→#

I couldn't hear it clearly because of the noisy cafeteria.

I could tell by looking at the shape of my senior's mouth.



김석진
You worked hard too

As I climbed up to the rooftop, now that I'm up there

I left the crowded cafeteria and went up to the rooftop.

My heart ached as I kept thinking of Seokjin-senpai.

윤여주
... so handsome

Yoon Yeo-ju, are you starting to like senior Seok-jin..?

You asked me, but I don't know exactly either.

윤여주
...I don't know, I don't know

I sat down, leaned against the railing, and closed my eyes.

윤여주
Phew...

윤여주
Aren't you just drinking kimchi stew with the help of a senior?

I raised my head and rested my chin on the second railing.

And then I looked at the students passing by below.

윤여주
...!


I saw senior Seokjin passing by.

I quickly stood up and grabbed the top railing.

I leaned over slightly and looked at my senior.

윤여주
Wow...

윤여주
He's really handsome... (mumbles)

While I was looking at my senior with such a blank expression

Someone pulled my hair.

윤여주
Aaaah ...

I was startled by the scream that came out without me knowing.

Seokjin-seonbae and the seniors passing by below looked up almost simultaneously as if they heard a scream.

I was so surprised that I fell backwards, pushing hard against the railing I was holding onto in case my senior saw me.

Crazy!!!

윤여주
ha...

At that time, I was thinking that it was fortunate that my appearance was not discovered.

I heard someone crying out in pain near my ear.

I was so shocked by the sound that I turned to ice.

???
hey...

???
Why don't you just get up?

윤여주
...

I woke up with a start.

I sat up straight, my pupils dilated with fear, wondering what to do.

???
Ahh...

???
hey

???
Look at me

윤여주
...!

I turned around slowly.

In my slowly rotating vision

Blood stains on the sleeves of the school uniform, the left hand, and various parts of the uniform, and

A name tag with his name on it was visible.

'taehyoung kim'

I looked at the man's face in surprise.


...

It's Kim Taehyung.

It's really Kim Taehyung

윤여주
...

Kim Taehyung, the transfer student I've only heard about...

It was the first time in almost 4 years that I saw Kim Taehyung properly.
