To the boy

Secret (2)

After class, I followed Kim Min-seok. We arrived at the rooftop.

Kim Min-seok and I stood face to face in this empty space. I put down my bag, following Kim Min-seok's lead.

김여주

So why did you ask to talk?

김민석

...Ha. Now that I'm about to ask, I don't know what to say...

Kim Min-seok lowered his head and ruffled his hair. I felt even more frustrated. I thought it would be faster if I spoke first.

김여주

What are you talking about? The same familiar feeling you had when you first bumped into it?

Kim Min-seok looked at me with a start. His eyes were filled with wariness and anticipation.

김여주

I'm half-sure, because you called me. But I'm still a bit uneasy.

김민석

So you want me to give you some confidence?

I nodded silently. Kim Min-seok, who had seen me like that, smiled slightly and said,

김민석

My name is Kim Min-seok. I'm 18 years old. I'm currently a quiet, quiet student in my class. And-

All eyes were drawn to Kim Min-seok's mouth, which opened slowly.

김민석

-User with the ability to freeze.

Fireworks explode inside me, fanfares sound. It's such a relief to have met someone like me.

I felt like I was going to cry for no reason. But I held it back and spoke as calmly as I could.

김여주

...Kim Yeo-ju, a person with telekinesis and the power of speech. I'll be counting on you in the future.

Kim Min-seok.

김여주

Freezing... So can anything be frozen?

김민석

Yes, unless it's completely dried out, there's still moisture in it.

김여주

So people freeze too?

김민석

You could freeze it, right? The human body is 70% water.

After speaking, Kim Min-seok looked around and drew a circle with his finger. Ice formed along the circle.

김민석

You can also create ice in the air like this.

김여주

Oh...

김민석

Still, I'm more curious about your abilities. Even if it's telekinesis. Oral powers? What's that?

김여주

Hmm... well? What could it be? Guess it! The answer will be announced tomorrow!

김민석

Huh? Why! I told you everything!

김여주

Because I'm home now. I'm leaving! I put a note with my number in your pocket earlier, so call me with that!

김민석

What? Hey, you!

bang-

The female protagonist, who had been smiling brightly, quickly went into the house.

Minseok, who had become like a dog chasing a chicken, looked at him in disbelief, sighed, and started walking again.

김민석

Wow... when did you put it in?

Minseok searched through his pockets and found a real note, which he was shocked by and immediately opened.

코드네임 K

Number: 010-****-****

김민석

Codename? What is this?

Minseok burst into laughter again, turned his head from side to side, and put the note back in his pocket.

Still, it was great. Even though he seemed a bit playful, he was one of a kind, one that only a few people in the world could match.

김민석

Well, it won't be boring if we're together.

'I wonder if that would be good.'

A rare smile appeared on Minseok's lips.
