The seat next to me - Yeoju City point of view ver. -

'Tiring ringing- ringing ringing...'

"Ugh...um..."

"hello..."

권순영

"Hey- Are you still sleeping? You sound like an old man."

이여주 image

이여주

"Are you done talking... Of course... It's Sunday, where would I go..."

권순영 image

권순영

"Hahaha, yeah, heroine."

이여주 image

이여주

"...why"

권순영 image

권순영

"I'll tell you something fun."

권순영 image

권순영

"Today is Monday."

"Tut-tut-tut-"

이여주

....? You're ruining my Sunday morning with such childish pranks... Kwon Soon-young, if you go to school tomorrow, you're dead...

...Come to think of it, there's no way Kwon Soon-young would call me so early in the morning and pull a prank like this. Just in case, I checked my phone...

10:34 AM

이여주

...I'm screwed

11:46 AM

I just woke up and hurriedly finished getting ready, so I ran out of the house without even eating breakfast.

And just as I was about to sprint, I heard a familiar voice behind me.

"Hey, this lady~"

이여주 image

이여주

Kwon Soon-young?

권순영 image

권순영

Yes, Sunyeong♡

이여주 image

이여주

Ugh; that's true, it was already late, but it happened even later!!!

이여주 image

이여주

Huh? But why are you here?

권순영 image

권순영

The wonderful Kwon Soon-young came to pick up our Yeo-ju and explain it well so that she wouldn't get scolded by the already scary history teacher.

이여주 image

이여주

Hey~ Kwon Soon-young is awesome!! Thank you ㅜㅜㅜ

권순영 image

권순영

Yeah yeah haha

I didn't think much of it when Kwon Soon-young, who I'd been close with since elementary school, stroked my hair, called my name, and was there for me when I was going through a hard time.

But these days, each and every one of those things that were taken for granted makes my heart flutter and get excited.

I like Kwon Soon-young.

"••••Oh, and Choi Seung-cheol, the weather is warm enough, and after eating, you seem like you might want to sleep well. Please don't sleep and come to the break room. That's all."

As this was my first time experiencing unrequited love, I didn't know how to approach her or how to confess later.

So I called Choi Seung-cheol, who had been close with Kwon Soon-young since elementary school. He always accepted me even when I was selfish, and he understood me even when I got angry for no reason.

If it were Seungcheol, wouldn't he grant the request?

(Knock knock)

최승철

I'm here. What are you ordering me to do today? Judging by the way you call me "Orama," you really are a princess.

이여주 image

이여주

Choi Seung-cheol, you're so late!

최승철 image

최승철

Yes, yes, sorry I'm late-

이여주 image

이여주

That's right! Haha..

최승철 image

최승철

So, why did you call today?

이여주 image

이여주

Hey... that's me

최승철 image

최승철

Yeah- don't be shy.

이여주 image

이여주

Hey, I think Soonyoung likes Kwon Soonyoung.

최승철 image

최승철

Yeah..so?

Despite his soft words, Seungcheol's expression didn't look particularly good. Nevertheless, I continued to speak steadfastly.

이여주 image

이여주

I really like you so much...but I don't know what to do, so could you help me out a bit...?

최승철 image

최승철

Um... yeah, okay, I understand. As much as I can. If that's okay, then that's fine.

이여주 image

이여주

Oh... Really? Really? Hey, thank you so much...

I was anxious. It was selfish of me, but I was worried that maybe someone would listen.

최승철 image

최승철

Yeah, I hope it goes well.

이여주 image

이여주

thank you...

Seungcheol's voice, cheering me on, remained gentle until the very end. But his expression hadn't improved at all. He was smiling, but it didn't seem like he was smiling at all.
