“So, how about Ha-chan?”
“It’s nothing difficult. Seolhyang, are you okay?”
She is a boss, but today she is a college student at the same university as me.
So when I let go of my words, her eyes fluttered for a moment.
“I, no, me, one more name.”
“Seolhyang?”
She trembled when I spoke again after she asked carefully.
“Ha-chan, thank you.”
And there was a deep longing for some reason in her eyes.
‘Seolhyang, Seolhyang? what. Why are you so familiar with it?’
Is it because I call him Mr. Bek Seol-hyang every day?
I felt something familiar with the words I spit out as Seolhyang.
Clearly, Seolhyang was unfamiliar, but Seolhyang was familiar.
‘Something.’
Wait, while the memories were flashing, I turned my head, startled by the warmth from my hands.
Then Seolhyang, who suddenly grabbed my hand, said without turning her head to me.
“Ha, ha-chan, uh, let’s go! I’m late for class!”
Seeing her with her ears dyed red, I started walking after her at the warmth of her hands.
And looking at her back, I was reliving my vague memories for a moment.
before her sister’s return.
It was a memory of when I was really young.
Yes, even then, I definitely remember seeing someone holding my hand and walking around school like this.
Although it is a very old memory, most of the memories close to that day have been forgotten due to the great shock of the death of my parents due to my sister’s return soon after.
I definitely remember being like this.
Is it an illusion?
I don’t know because my memory is hazy.
Then I realized later that I was holding hands with Seolhyang.
The gentle warmth from his hand tickled me and made me dizzy.
What does this action mean?
Holding hands may happen, but the act of holding hands between men and women of the same age was mostly done in romantic relationships.
The words that the silver tree and Baeksan mentioned came to mind again.
He said that Seolhyang would like me too.
‘Really?’
As I was experiencing such confusion, we arrived at a university lecture hall at some point.
As the class had just begun, I carefully opened the door and some eyes turned to this direction.
Among them, there was a professor who was teaching, but as soon as he saw this, he didn’t care and turned his head away.
His actions were deeply imbued with the feeling that he didn’t see who was coming in, and that he didn’t care at all.
‘Is this the power of the dean’s acquaintances?’
What is the power of relationships?
Once again admiring the power of such a network, the students who saw this could not concentrate on the class and just stared blankly at Seolhyang’s face.
To be honest, I thought it would be worth it if I didn’t know Seolhyang, and Seolhyang sat down with me in an empty seat in the corner.
In the meantime, our hands were still held for some reason.
The hand held under the desk was a proof that he had held my hand for a long time, and the temperature was higher than before.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Now that this has come to class, I might have to slowly pull out my hand.When I looked at Seol-hyang’s face, she didn’t even make eye contact with me, but only stared at the dear professor.
Thanks to this, the professor’s face gradually turned blue, but she seemed unwilling to withdraw her gaze.
After looking at her for a while, I decided to ask her.
“Seolhyang.”
“Yes?”
When she replied without looking at me, I flickered the hand that was holding her.
With that alone, Seolhyang withdrew her body and turned her face red.
“Are you going to keep holding it?”
When I asked an honest question, Seolhyang immediately shook her body for a moment and then looked at me with tears in her eyes.
“… … no?”
Good.
I almost said inadvertently.
Thinking that a beautiful face is a powerful law, I silently shook my head without answering.
It was because she was shy and my face went hot on its own.
Then, Seolhyang gently stretched out her clasped hands and interlocked them.
It was a real lover’s pod.
As I was shocked by the action, she whispered quietly.
“Because you won’t miss it.”
If it was her sincerity as a returnee, it seemed that she would never let go of her for the rest of her life.
“f*ck, I can’t see you anymore!”
At that moment, Baeksan, who was standing still behind us, let out a whip and ran through the wall.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
No, it’s not because of me though.2
I felt like I was lost in my mind, as I couldn’t remember the lecture at all thanks to Seol-hyang’s clasped hands until the end of the class.
Seolhyang was holding my hand tightly as if she was not really going to let go, and when class was over, she checked the phone with the other hand.
“Ha-chan, where do we go to the next class?”
As if she had gotten used to holding my hand now, she looked at me with a less red face.
Seeing her like that, I checked the time on the wall.
“Let’s eat lunch first.”
“Then it’s academic.”
Seeing Seolhyang’s smiling face made me feel at ease too.
Holding hands with her again, we went out of the classroom.
Seol-hyang’s looks and looks like a couple walking holding hands, so the eyes were drawn to this side quite a bit, but her and mine didn’t fall apart.
It’s still early September, so it must be hot.
So we headed to the university cafeteria.
I had to go down the stairs to get to the restaurant, so I realized that Seolhyang was faltering as I went down the stairs.
“what’s the matter? Does your leg hurt?”
“Oh, I feel a little uncomfortable going down the stairs.”
Could it be uncomfortable to go down instead of going up?
“It’s because of the chest… … .”
I, who had been puzzled, immediately turned my gaze to her upper body.
… … You can’t see your feet
I can’t see, so of course it’s inconvenient.
“Oh, sorry, I didn’t know that. I’ll take good care of you.”
“Fufu, thank you.”
Realizing that such a thing is difficult even as a grown-up, I grabbed her hand properly and led her down.
When I entered the restaurant like that, I saw college students already eating here and there.
Due to the nature of the university, education is cost-effective and of course not comparable to a restaurant, but the education in this university was quite good.
It was because there were many different kinds of menus on the menu board.
“Is there anything you want to eat? i will live Even though I can’t buy expensive things, I’m someone who can buy you a degree.”
“Putt, who is Hachan’s money coming from?”
“It is forbidden to talk about work. I will warn you.”
“Oh, that’s a mistake. But what if all the warnings pile up?”
She looked at me with anticipation for some reason.
What do you do when it’s all piled up?
If it’s ayu, I’d just say it was just a nightmare, but I couldn’t do that to Seolhyang.
“I think too long. Can I keep accumulating warnings then?”
“It’s a foul. There is very little you can do.”
“What is the offense, then, next warning, if we ask each other what we want to ask, let’s answer them right away.”
It seemed like it would be fine.
I nodded, bought a meal ticket, went to my seat, and waited for my number to appear.
“Ah, reminds me of water.”
As I was about to get up to get water before dinner, I found myself holding hands with her.
She stared intently at the hand holding me.
Then he smiled shyly at me.
“… … If I eat, do I have to catch Ha-chan again?”
“Ah, yes.”
As soon as she let go of her hand, I answered involuntarily and hurriedly ran in front of the water purifier.
Then, to calm his confused head, he hit the forehead of the water purifier and quietly took a breath.
Ji-eun and Si-ho thought they were minors, so there was a cut-off, but Seol-hyang is the same age as me.
She is also a member of a full-fledged society, and up until now, I have treated her as an adult woman.
It was hard for me to handle as she was so aggressive that even an idiot could understand it.
I don’t know why, but Seolhyang seemed to like me.
The problem is, I don’t really know the reason, so I had a lot of trouble in my head.
It was because I had no idea why someone like her liked me.
Say that a woman who is not missing anything socially, physically, or physically likes me as soon as she sees me one day.
Who would easily believe that?
“The day will come when I will have to worry like this.”
I hated myself in many ways for not being able to accept someone’s favor because of Kwak Sa-yeon’s work.
If I hadn’t worked with Sa-yeon Kwak, what would I be like now?
Would you have confessed to her right away?
I thought it was a miracle that such a person liked me.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
No, yes, let’s take this opportunity to seriously consider it.Let’s just say she likes me.
Then I?
‘I.’
Do you have any sympathy for her?
Seol-hyang is a boss at work and a person with the title of President of the World Returnees Association.
She was reliable, nice and beautiful.
That alone is enough to easily embrace the feelings of a lover.
But if you ask me if I like her.
‘… … Well.’
It could be said that she was full, but even if she liked her as a person, it could not be said that she still liked her as a person of the opposite s*x.
At first, due to trauma, I tended to view people who I thought were greater than myself, like Seol-hyang, from a distance.
Recently, though I was conscious of that tendency, it was gradually decreasing, but it still remained in my mind and tormented me.
And I was well aware that my actions were very disrespectful to Seolhyang.
‘Then even now.’
I decided to treat her more rationally.
How I feel about her as a man and a woman.
Even to make sure of that.
“I’m here?”
When I opened the water, Seolhyang greeted me with a smile.
As far as being pretty, she was unique.
“Thanks for the water.”
“It’s nothing special.”
Having said that, she took the glass of water and immediately began to laugh softly.
“I never thought I would go to school with Ha-chan like this again.”
“yes? again?”
At that moment, as I turned to look at her, Seolhyang looked up and smiled in embarrassment.
“Oh, that’s, I never thought I’d go back to school! It’s only one day, though.”
The sight of her smiling like that caught my heart.
Come to think of it, the reason she came to school today was because she was caught up in a dimension shift while she was in elementary school and had never been able to attend school at all.
Although I may not be able to experience life again in middle school or high school, I took the time to experience university as well.
‘More than sympathy or anything like that.’
I hope that at least today will be a day that can fill her with a little bit of her school life.
“If you ask me to come again, I will come again, so don’t worry. I have to go to class today.”
“… … really?”
“really.”
Her eyes drew arcs.
At that moment, as she remembered something, she took on a slightly annoyed look.
“Then, if anyone other than me asks to go to school, I will go with you.”
I don’t know who’s going to ask me to go to school, but I scratched my head once.
“I’m not that kind to anyone, I guess.”
“Be kind. Too. Sometimes I get angry.”
And then she soon put on a lingering look.
“But I was like that… … ”
“No. 153! 153 times! Tonkatsu has arrived! Come on take it!”
At that moment, Seol-hyang’s words were interrupted by a screaming aunt of a scholarly cook.
It must have been a while ago that the tonkatsu came out, so there were several other numbers in front of our number.
“… … Let’s get the pork cutlet first.”
Except for what she was about to say, she got up from her seat with a red-stained face.
I brought the pork cutlet along with her and started eating right away.
The pork cutlet tasted just like what you eat at Kimbap Heaven.
There was nothing special, but seeing Seolhyang eating pork cutlet was a little rare.
For some reason, it was because she had a luxurious image that was more suitable for steak.
“It’s embarrassing for me to see you eating like that.”
Maybe it was because I looked too closely, Seolhyang blushed slightly and blew me away.
Still, it was quite strange to chew the pork cutlet with that small mouth.
“Or do you want to do something like this?”
At that moment, she picked up a pork cutlet with a fork and put it in front of my mouth.
They were both eating the same pork cutlet, but for some reason, it looked more delicious.
‘I don’t know what love is yet.’
As far as why couples do this kind of behavior, I can understand for sure.
