63 – Movie
“I’ll see you on Monday, boss.”
“Yes, Hansol, take care of Soi…. And Soi, don’t let Hansol into his house. Drinking alcohol shouldn’t weaken your will? “Can’t we do that before we start dating?”
‘It’s already too late to enter each other’s houses… ‘
As her company dinner was coming to an end, Kwak Joo-hee and her boyfriend, who had come to pick her up, went out on her way first. Of course, after completing the calculations.
Now, only Soi and I are standing in front of the food stall.
Why two? Dami Lim The woman suddenly disappeared in the middle of a company dinner, leaving only a running rabbit emoticon in the Soi Bunsik group chat room. She said she threw up first in the middle.
He is truly a self-indulgent person to the very end. Well, it’s better just to know that she went home safely.
“Then, let’s go too. It’s already 12 o’clock…. “Kim So-yi?”
“… Yes?! Uh… I have to go. Okay. Huh… “I have to go home.”
“…… “
From earlier, Soyi kept hitting herself as if her mind had been distracted somewhere else.
To be exact, it started when I left the room for a moment in the middle of the second round.
I wouldn’t have gotten drunk because I was right next to him and controlled his drinking well… Earlier, when I was alone with Dami Lim, did I hear something strange?
Dami Lim is a woman who says some pretty insensitive things, so I think she has a high chance of doing that.
“… Well, the route I take today is different from usual.”
“Yes, that’s right, I guess. “The street food stall where we drank in the second round is on the opposite side from ours.”
“Uh, huh… yes.”
While throwing around meaningless topics, Soyi kept stealing glances at my face.
There’s something he really wants to say to me, but he can’t bring himself to say it, so it seems like he’s just throwing out other things for no reason.
“Uh… Sol, it’s final exam time soon at Hankuk University, right? At that time, Sol, let’s adjust your part-time work hours. You worked so hard during the last midterm exam… “
“Kim So-yi.”
“Uh, huh.”
“… You, Dami Lim, what strange things did you hear from that woman? “Ever since I went out to buy ice cream and been alone with that person, you’ve been a little strange.”
“…… “
We stopped walking.
When I asked outright, Soyi couldn’t help but crumple her face as if she couldn’t control her expression anymore.
Seeing that face made me feel feverish.
“What did she say? Did she say some weird obscenities or something? Or did she say something mean to you?”
“It’s not like that… What should I say, it’s just some advice… hahahaha, Sol… “
“… Huh.”
“You know, what’s our relationship?”
“Between us… ?”
Between us. Me and Soy’s current status.
There are many ways to express it.
You can say they’re dating, or you can say they’re dating soon. It can also be said to be a relationship that is more than friends but less than lovers.
And, I have no idea who Soi is now, but in my past life, she was the one and only most precious person.
But why is Soyi asking this now? Did Dami Lim say something about us not dating?
Or… I wonder if she feels insecure because I haven’t asked her out yet, even though we’ve been acting like lovers so far.
Several thoughts quickly crossed my mind.
“Is it because I couldn’t answer properly when Dami asked us if we were dating earlier?”
“… No. I also had a hard time knowing how to say that. “It was too sudden.”
“Then why?”
“… I don’t know. I don’t know how I feel either. We’re doing well now, Sol, you’re being so good to me, but still I… “I’m anxious.”
“…… “
I understand that Dami Lim said something that made her feel uneasy. But in the end, the source of that anxiety is me.
Because I couldn’t convince Soyi.
……
“Kim So-yi.”
“… Huh.”
“Let’s go see a movie with me tomorrow.”
“Movie… ?”
“Yes, we have a hard time working, so we never play together on our days off. So, let’s go on a date tomorrow.”
“Well, a date… !”
Soyi’s face brightened as I clearly stated that our meeting tomorrow was a date.
With her smile and nod of her head, Soi began to walk again with her lighter steps.
When she slowly reached out her hand toward me, I held her hand and walked with her.
“Come out nicely tomorrow.”
I said that as I saw her off as she entered her house. Soyi laughed, saying the comment was cringy.
Because of my mind wandering, I have been making Soyi very anxious.
But no matter how much Ara’s trace remained in my heart now, I severed the connection with Ara anyway.
And now it is So-yi’s turn to repay by combining her feelings that she was unable to repay in her previous life.
I will confess to Soi tomorrow.
I will make her second confession to her by combining her past life and present life.
We will go back to being lovers again tomorrow.

“Ha… “
On Saturday night, Ara was lying on the bed in a single room in the dormitory, staring blankly at her ceiling.
Wasting time so foolishly and meaninglessly is something that Ara hates the most. Normally, she would have gone to the library to study.
But now…
‘… ‘I don’t want to do anything.’
For Ara now, just attending school lectures during the week was very tiring both physically and mentally.
No, rather, that was the most difficult.
Most first-year Korean language education students had a similar lecture schedule in the first semester, so they saw Hansol a lot. Ara found it very difficult.
Although she somehow avoided looking at him face to face, it was hard for Ara to look at him from far away at her feet.
It was heartbreaking for her to see her loved one say goodbye to her that day…. But even so, Ara’s eyes always followed her Hansol’s back.
Even though she knew that this was only going to make things difficult for her, Ara couldn’t stop doing it.
Because of that, her emotions were excessive and she was mentally distressed, and her exhausted head and spirit even tired Ara’s body.
‘Maybe Sol continued to be like this. ‘Is it because she was hurt by me who kept pushing her away that she stayed by my side?’
“Ugh… “
Thinking of Hansol like that, Ara’s eyes filled with tears again.
She had been hurting him for some time, but now she was unable to apologize or repay him.
Wow-
Ara’s cell phone vibrated.
Her phone is ringing quite often tonight.
Earlier, in her personal chat, she was encouraged to come out as her classmates were drinking together.
I checked in my classmate’s group chat room that they were talking excitedly among themselves, saying that it was Saturday and that they should have a drink before exam period soon.
Of course, Ara politely declined, but it was clear that her classmates, who had been drinking, were so excited about her that they contacted her again.
At the beginning of her semester, she found it difficult because she was a third-generation chaebol, but since Ara accepted everything kindly, she seems to have become more comfortable.
Ara ignored it. She threw the phone away without even checking the screen.
When they get excited, they get surprised.
“Should I just quit school…?” “
If not dropping out, should I at least take a leave of absence?
He said he deliberately chose the same class as Hansol, but it’s so hard to see him now.
He hated himself for not being able to take his eyes off him even though he was in so much pain.
In the meantime, pretending to be fine and laughing in front of others was almost like torture.
Why is he still like this in the first place?
Is there any need to pretend to be perfect when things have ended up like this with Hansol anyway?
‘… I just want to let it all go.’
Wow- Wow-
The cell phone that used to ring once in a while now started ringing like crazy. It seems like they are even making phone calls now.
Ara was clearly irritated and picked up her cell phone that had been thrown in the corner with the idea of turning it off.
“… Uh?”
However, the name that appeared on the mobile phone screen was not the name of a person from the Department of Education.
「Minah」
A phone call from an old friend with whom I recently reconciled. Ara hesitated a little and then pressed the call button.
“Hello. Min-ah?”
– … Why didn’t you tell me?
“… “What?”
– I heard it from Ahyeon. With you… Sol’s story.
“…… “
– I deserve to hear your story, right? Let’s meet tomorrow.
“There’s nothing worth meeting and talking about… “
– Oh, it’s noisy! Come tomorrow where I tell you! You won’t be able to do anything else anyway!
After yelling, Minah hung up the phone.
Perhaps it was because we were childhood friends or because we were seniors with broken hearts, but I knew exactly what Arasheon was in right now.
Less than a minute after hanging up her phone, Minah texted me the location and time of her appointment.
The meeting place is the screening room inside the movie theater. Appointment time is 3pm. The title of the movie is…
“Even sunflowers sometimes hurt my throat”… “I really hate the title.”
It reminds me of him again.
———-
“Yes! Did you know? “I’m really going to sleep now.”
It was already close to 2 a.M., But Soyi, who had spoken on the phone with Hansol, who had just broken up, couldn’t sleep at all.
Hansol’s last words to make it pretty and come back. Date.
I had a feeling that something good would happen.
Wow-
“Huh?”
I received a text message from Hansol, who had just hung up the phone.
From Noble mtl dot com
It was a text message about tomorrow’s date schedule.
After reading through the contents, Soyi really liked the title of the movie he asked her to watch.
“Even sunflowers sometimes hurt my throat”… “I like that the title is very romantic.”
Soyi was looking forward to tomorrow.
The screening time of the movie was 3 PM.
