Youth has abandoned us
Youth Has Abandoned Us_4 《Taeju Couple》


??: Oh, is that the Taejoo couple?

??: Yeah, honestly, I feel so bad for Kim Taehyung

??: Her face is ordinary, but she acts like a fox...? Did she seduce you with that? Haha

??: No, I guess he thinks he's something lol

??: Looking at Kim Taehyung with that face ㅋㅋ He really is a real guy ㅋㅋ

Noisy noisy))

I knew this would happen

It's really pathetic how he glances at me as soon as I open the classroom door and whispers so I can hear him.

Oh right

You must be curious

Why did I get involved in this kind of controversy with Kim Taehyung?

To answer that question, we need to go back two days.

선생님
Today, both of you stay and help the teacher!


이여주
..to?


김태형
...


이여주
..yes


김태형
yes

ㆍㆍㆍ

After class, we came up to the teacher's desk and bickered with each other.

선생님
..you guys,

선생님
Today is the first week since I started school, so I'm giving you some special treatment!


이여주
..!


이여주
..Then can I go now..?


김태형
...

선생님
no.

선생님
I'm helping the teacher because I have something left to look after~


이여주
iced coffee..


이여주
yes..

선생님
..then first!

선생님
I have to borrow books from the library to put in our class library.

선생님
Here, you can borrow the book written on this paper~


이여주
..I think there are a lot of books.

선생님
Hey, what's so great about 30 volumes?

선생님
Hurry up and bring it~

선생님
The teacher has to go to another job now.

선생님
Please leave the books you borrowed on the teacher's desk.

plodding-


이여주
...


김태형
...

After the teacher left, there was an awkward silence for a moment.


김태형
...


김태형
..why am I like this...(mumble)

That peaceful silence didn't last long though;


이여주
Hey, who wants to do this?


김태형
..Oh really


이여주
Stop whining and let's get this over with!


김태형
..what the heck

That bastard answered my question dryly, then looked at me with a puzzled expression for a moment before saying


김태형
Then let's divide up the roles.


김태형
I will tell you the name and location of the book written on this paper.


김태형
Take out the book as you move


김태형
..how


이여주
..I feel like I'm at a bit of a loss..?


김태형
Shouldn't we get rid of it quickly like you said?


이여주
..okay

ㆍㆍㆍ


김태형
114 in the bar column,


김태형
fool


이여주
..?


이여주
Are you talking about me or is that the title of a book?


김태형
Both


김태형
Book title: A person I want to keep seeing even when I'm looking at him


이여주
..?


이여주
Ah, why did you shorten it?


이여주
Even though I'm looking at it... Even though I'm looking at it...


이여주
..found it

Thump-

I placed the book on a lightly layered pile of books.


이여주
Wow~ We're going so fast..?


이여주
Strangely, it only fits well in these kinds of places..? Haha


김태형
Hehe what are you talking about?


이여주
One, two, three,... I think it's almost done?


김태형
If I find just one more volume, I'll have 30 volumes.


이여주
Bye~


김태형
92 in all,


김태형
We start again


이여주
Again... again...


이여주
uh?


이여주
I guess I'll have to climb the ladder to find this?


김태형
..do your best~


이여주
..-_-


이여주
Hold on to the ladder from below,


이여주
If I say sideways, move to the side


김태형
....


김태형
You're really taking advantage of me (mumble)


이여주
..?


이여주
I can hear you mumbling all the time~^^


김태형
...


김태형
..so I can just hold it here?


이여주
Look at that beating around the bush lol


김태형
There's only one volume left, hurry up and do it


이여주
..I'm doing it~


이여주
Start again...start again...


이여주
Oh, I found it


김태형
Get it out quickly!


이여주
Oh, just a moment


이여주
I can't reach this?


이여주
Move it a little to the side


김태형
..ha, really, my arms are short (mumble)

Drumroll-


이여주
Okay, okay


이여주
Just a little more... if you stretch upwards..!


김태형
uh..!


김태형
Hey hey it's dangerous


김태형
I'd rather do it myself...


이여주
Almost done!

I don't know what made me so greedy.

I raised my toes as high as I could and almost touched the book.


이여주
..just a little more...!


김태형
...!


김태형
Hey..! Danger..


이여주
..ugh!

That happened

Something that should never have happened has happened.

After I barely managed to get up on tiptoe and pick up the book,

I must have been lifting my heels too high, my center of gravity is collapsing.

I fell down in that state

I almost did

At the time I was falling, Kim Taehyung... that jerk grabbed my waist in an instant and tried to make the impact of my fall as weak as possible.

I don't know if that's a good thing or if it just made things worse.

But one thing was certain

I'm going to get involved in something incredibly bad

-

If I recall the scene where I fell again

first of all

Kim Taehyung grabbed my waist to protect me from falling from that tall ladder.

And then he grabbed her shoulder and tried to hug her like a princess you only see in movies,

Is it because he can't handle my weight or is he weak?

After grabbing my shoulder, I fell straight to the ground.

..in a very, very strange position

..with Kim Taehyung

To be exact, I almost fell on Kim Taehyung

ㆍㆍㆍ

We hurriedly distanced ourselves from each other, as if we were surprised.

I got up, brushing the dust off my clothes as if nothing had happened.

I returned to the classroom with the books in my hands.

but

I saw

His cheeks and ears were so red that they were almost burning.
