홍지수
((Looking around)


홍지수
Uh. Nobody's here. Come down.


윤정한
......((Srrrk


widely-]


The two of them came out through the window at the top


Although we cannot escape because we are blocked on all sides,

It seemed better than being stuck in that cramped, prison-like place.



윤정한
.......((looking around


홍지수
There's nobody here.


홍지수
And, I come here sometimes, so I know it's safe.


홍지수
This is a place where humans don't even patrol.


홍지수
You can rest assured.



윤정한
.....((Nod


Jisu leaning against the wall and looking at Jeonghan


홍지수
however,


윤정한
......?



홍지수
Are you the type who doesn't talk?



윤정한
...........


윤정한
Strictly speaking, that's true.



홍지수
.........((Nod)


홍지수
Your voice is really cute


윤정한
.........


홍지수
I want to keep listening_


홍지수
Tell me


......?

You're telling me to speak out of nowhere?

What are you saying...?



윤정한
....what......?



홍지수
hmm.....


홍지수
Just anything.


홍지수
How you've lived, and how you ended up here.


홍지수
Something like this?


윤정한
......


How could this be?

Should I just ask about the things I really don't know?


윤정한
......



윤정한
I don't know.


윤정한
Both of those.


홍지수
........


홍지수
.......((Nod)


Ordinary people, if I say this

Everyone turns their heads

Because I think of him as a delinquent

But why him,

On the contrary, are they nodding their heads?



홍지수
.......


홍지수
Sorry, I won't ask.


홍지수
The kid in the same situation as me,


홍지수
Since you're my first.


홍지수
I naturally assumed you would know.


홍지수
Only me,


홍지수
I always thought I was the only one who didn't know something.



홍지수
The other kids inside there.


홍지수
You know everything? Haha


홍지수
I wonder how Mom and Dad were,


홍지수
I wonder how I ended up here......


홍지수
Of course, when you hear them, they are unpleasant stories, but


홍지수
I was always the only one without a story.


홍지수
I don't know a single thing.


홍지수
I don't have that kind of memory... haha



홍지수
I was always envious.


홍지수
Even if they are sad, the kids who have their own stories.


홍지수
however,


홍지수
Because I met someone in the same situation as me,


홍지수
It feels a bit different.



윤정한
.......((Nod)



홍지수
Is there anything you like?



윤정한
.....


윤정한
I know




홍지수
yes?


홍지수
I don't know either.


윤정한
........



홍지수
Oh, come to think of it, you're speaking informally?


윤정한
........((Nod)



윤정한
Because we're the same age.


홍지수
......((Nod


윤정한
....((glance



윤정한
excuse me,


홍지수
huh?



윤정한
Try smiling just once


홍지수
......?



홍지수
suddenly...?


홍지수
It's been a long time since I forgot how to smile.


윤정한
......


윤정한
((Shaking head


윤정한
Smile



홍지수
.........


홍지수
why?


윤정한
.......


Swoosh-]


홍지수
camera......?


Before being dragged here,

The camera I saw in the alley

It was something I had kept in my pocket all along.



윤정한
There were 3 sheets of film left,


윤정한
I want to try using it



홍지수
........


홍지수
I don't laugh much.



홍지수
Even when you smile... you're not pretty.



윤정한
.... You're not smiling to look pretty, are you?


윤정한
Smile for me.



홍지수
.... Is it a favor?


윤정한
huh


홍지수
........



홍지수
Sorry, I'm not sure how to laugh.


윤정한
The only person next to me in the same situation as me


윤정한
I want to capture it on film. With a smile.



홍지수
..........


....... Smiling-]]



And the sound of a camera shutter clicking,

The sound of a photo developing like a Polaroid camera


and,

The smiles of the two boys smiling silently while looking at the photo, too

We were melting into it together.

여름비처럼
Cut!!!! This chapter is a mess....... Ugh, I think I wrote this really weirdly, what should I do? ㅠㅠ((Please keep reading!! It's REALLY important....


여름비처럼
*clears throat*


여름비처럼
Um... the reason I asked you to keep reading this personal anecdote is...


Wow.................the Noeul members...ㅠㅠ


여름비처럼
I, I really woke up to check and was so completely moved that my heart sank......


여름비처럼
My wrist has been hurting a lot lately, so I've only been able to send you small amounts... but if you give me such a touching gift... ㅠㅠ


여름비처럼
Of course... if you read this chapter and feel it doesn't suit you, you can unsubscribe, right...? But, I’ve been with 50 Noeul fans at least once!! I’ll be satisfied with that. No, actually, I’m truly grateful.


여름비처럼
Um... I guess you could say this episode was a bit of a preparation stage. Starting from the next episode, crucial scenes from the past will appear.


여름비처럼
To the Noeul fans, I am truly sorry that I cannot repay you for everything you have given me...


여름비처럼
I always think of the Noeul members and I like them very much :)🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡


여름비처럼
Thank you so much. Let's stay together for a long time.

Noeul members are the best><
