Everyone’s here, right? Let’s continue class.

...

It was after class, when she was packing up her bag.

김여주 image

김여주

Um...

김운학 image

김운학

Hm?

Yeoju glanced at Unhak’s name tag and said.

김여주 image

김여주

Your name is cool. Unhak...

김운학 image

김운학

Thanks.

김운학 image

김운학

(laughs) Your name is pretty too, Yeoju.

김운학 image

김운학

See you tomorrow.

Unhak said goodbye first and quickly left the classroom.

김여주 image

김여주

'Ah,'

김여주 image

김여주

'I wanted to leave together... '

김여주 image

김여주

'Is he in a hurry?'

Yeoju, who felt fluttery around Unhak, thought about nothing but Unhak until she fell asleep...

The next day.

김여주 image

김여주

'(laughs) Just the thought of seeing Unhak again today... I’m so happy.'

Yeoju sat in the same seat she had used yesterday,

and before long Unhak, who came in, naturally sat next to Yeoju and greeted her.

김운학 image

김운학

Hi.

김여주 image

김여주

Hi. Looks like no one caused trouble today.

김운학 image

김운학

(laughs)

김운학 image

김운학

Actually, the person who caused trouble yesterday was me?

김여주 image

김여주

(startled) Huh?

김운학 image

김운학

But it’s not a big deal.

김운학 image

김운학

I tripped while going to tell them I was on trash-sorting duty,

김운학 image

김운학

and it took a long time to pick everything up.

김여주 image

김여주

Then it wasn’t a problem... ?

김여주 image

김여주

You didn’t get hurt?

김운학 image

김운학

No, I’m fine.

김운학 image

김운학

But it still counts as causing trouble. I took away my friends’ precious time.

김운학 image

김운학

They probably wanted to go home quickly or had something else scheduled next.

Moved by Unhak’s sincerity, Yeoju kept shouting 'He’s an angel!' to herself over and over.

As a brief silence settled in, Yeoju gathered her courage and spoke.

김여주 image

김여주

You,

김여주 image

김여주

what are you doing after class?

김운학 image

김운학

Me?

김운학 image

김운학

I’m going straight home.

김여주 image

김여주

Then do you want to go together after class?

김운학 image

김운학

Sure.

김여주 image

김여주

'Wow!'

김여주 image

김여주

'Awesome... I did it.'

김여주 image

김여주

'I need to get close to him fast.'

But then something unexpected happened.

학원 선생님 image

학원 선생님

Student Kim Unhak?

김운학 image

김운학

Yes?

학원 선생님 image

학원 선생님

Do you have a minute after class?

김운학 image

김운학

(glancing at Yeoju) I do, but...

학원 선생님 image

학원 선생님

Then stay behind for a moment after class.
