＜Episode 9＞ Snacks
“ruler.”
A leisurely weekend afternoon. Si-eun, who entered the room without knocking, held out something.
Looking closely, Si-eun was holding a bowl. Beautifully cut apples are included.
“what?”
“What is it? It’s a snack.”
It’s a normal conversation. Well, I guess. It doesn’t mean you have to throw away food waste just because you happen to have it.
But the question is not that.
“What snack all of a sudden?”
“It is said that fruit is good for the body because it contains a lot of vitamins.”
Si-eun put the bowl down on the desk and answered.
“I eat rice every day, drink coffee, don’t exercise well, and just stare at the monitor all day. Living like that is bad for the body, so I think I need to take care of these things.”
“Are you saying you bought fruit for my health?”
“okay.”
Si-eun nodded without hesitation.
I didn’t ask you to, but did you voluntarily take care of my body? There is a peculiar corner. I even felt my heart warm.
I wanted to say thank you, but Si-eun added a word in a serious tone.
“If you die, you won’t earn 500 a month.”
Saying thank you is cancelled.
It would have been better if I had just left it silently misunderstood.
“Well. Do I have to die?”
“I may die. Because there is no order to go.”
“There will be many people who will go earlier than me. Besides, I feel pretty healthy these days because you made the meal.”
“Isn’t the body doing its last stroke?”
“no.”

My friend and him, why do you keep trying to kill me?Soon after, Si-eun put her head close to the monitor. As the long hair brushed past my nose, a fresh scent lingered in its place.
He followed and turned his gaze to the monitor. Various graphs, formulas, and source codes were arranged in a complicated manner on the screen. It wouldn’t be fun to read.
Si-eun, who turned her face toward me, asked.
“Are you making money with this?”
“It’s like that.”
“I don’t know what it is, but it looks interesting.”
“It’s not a big deal.”
“I made so much money, so why isn’t it a big deal?”
Si-eun chuckled and took her head off the monitor.
I wanted to get out now, so I glanced sideways, but for some reason, I saw Si-eun gently sitting on my bed.
what?
“Do you have anything to say?”
“no.”
“You want to stay in my room without me?”
“no?”
I was speechless again at the tone of questioning.
Is it okay to enter someone else’s room and then sit on the bed? I do not know. Because I don’t have any friends, so I’ve never been to a friend’s house.
“It’s not that I can’t.”
However, there was no reason to kick me out, so I decided to continue what I was doing. As long as there’s no interference, it doesn’t matter whether there is or not.
That thought was short-lived. Not long after, a muffled voice came from behind.
“Looks like you’re still at home on the weekend. It was like that last week.”
I don’t think I have the heart to sit still.
Well, I said something like that. He has the ability to chatter on useless topics, so he promises to be a companion. This may also be part of it. It has nothing to do with my doctor.
Tap the keyboard and tease your mouth.
“If I go out, I won’t meet anyone. If you don’t have anyone to meet, it’s better to stay at home.”
“okay?”
Hearing the answer, he didn’t seem very interested. why the hell did you ask
“How about you?”
“me?”
“okay. Just like last week, I’m at home this week. Are you the type that hates going out too?”
“no. I like to go anywhere and play with my friends. If you stay at home, you get bored.”
“Well. I can’t sympathize.”
“I don’t have any friends.”
That’s a sensible word.
Si-eun is different from me in many ways. They prefer to be with a group rather than alone, and they prefer to be outdoors rather than at home. Besides, I have many friends. Staying in your room will probably sting your moth.
“Why don’t you go out and play? I will contact you if necessary.”
Si-eun said, “No,” and immediately refused.
“It costs money to play. I need to save even a penny, but I can’t.”
“Well… … . Is that so?”
Hearing that answer, I turned my head slightly.
Si-eun was sitting with her legs crossed and her chin on her knees. Just by looking at the pose, it was clear that he was bored.
After all, going out and playing costs money, so you decided to chat with me instead. He said he would be a companion, but instead he made me a companion.
“Aren’t you tired of just using the computer all the time?”
“Isn’t it okay to say things like that while going out with the computer?”
“Well, that’s right.”
Si-eun laughed, saying, “Ahaha, what’s so funny.”
“Still, I don’t know.”
“What?”
“I just came to the place that gave me the most scholarships based on my grades. I honestly don’t know if computers or programming are fun.”
“Ugh.”
did it
When I heard rumors about my usual class attitude and grades, I didn’t feel that way at all.
But looking at the circumstances, it was enough.
Since I was little, I have been taking care of the housework, so I have become proficient in cooking, cleaning, and laundry. Even if you want to play, keep in mind to save money. You go into a department you don’t want to get a scholarship.
Si-eun has lived such a life.
“Don’t take it too seriously. It’s just that.”
Si-eun summed it up by saying that it was nothing.
I couldn’t think of anything to give back.
“okay.”
He closed his mouth at the end of this answer.
Soon there was only silence in the room. There was the sound of keyboard hitting, the occasional creaking of the bed, and even the sound of the computer cooler running.
I’m just glad the intruder is gone. I decided to focus on coding again.
Just as I was showing my concentration like that, I heard a rumble from behind.
When I turned my head, I saw Si-eun lying on my bed.
“… … what are you doing?”
“lay down.”
“know.”
“If you know, why did you ask?”
“Because I didn’t ask for that.”
“then?”
“The question is, why are you lying in my bed?”
“no?”
Si-eun asked, tilting her head while lying down.
well don’t you like it? not. It’s different from not liking it. okay. If you have to ask this.
“Because I’m not too careful.”
“yes?”
At my words, Si-eun blinked her eyes for a moment as if she did not understand English.
“Oh, you mean that?”
As soon as he understood the meaning, he smiled at me.
“You said you wouldn’t do anything strange, didn’t you?”
“Well, that will never happen. Have you ever thought that you might be wrong?”
The world is like that
What if you are crossing the crosswalk after confirming that the traffic light has changed to blue and a truck suddenly rushes in? It’s all the driver’s fault, but the innocent I die.
So, at any rate, isn’t it right to raise the suspicion that I might have a bad heart?
However, Si-eun raises one corner of her mouth as if it were plastic.
“I haven’t done it.”
said this
His expression was even provocative. It almost felt as if he was beckoning him to do it if he could.
Didn’t I tell you not long ago that living in a man’s house is stressful? How much reassurance did my words and actions give Si-eun?
Seeing that scene, I couldn’t stand it any longer.
I immediately got up and walked over to the bed.
“What, what are you doing?”
Si-eun trembled at my movements and tried to get up. However, he was unable to even move, as he had no power.
“Come on, wait… … !”
As I approached, Si-eun’s face faded.
Regardless of Si-eun’s appearance, I took a step closer.
And finally, I arrived in front of Si-eun… … .
“It’s not unusual for something like this to happen.”
He sat right next to me and said:
Have you come to your senses now? With that thought in mind, I looked at Si-eun, but the terrified figure she had just been terrified of was gone. Instead, his face was full of dissatisfaction.
“You’re surprised!”
“That’s because I was trying to surprise you.”
It was meant to teach a lesson, but on the contrary, he looked angry. There is no use in doing good. I’ll just ignore it and do some coding.
Si-eun sighed and stood up. Sharp eyes stare down.
“still.”
After a while, Si-eun relaxed her expression and pulled out her horse’s head.
“I know what you mean.”
“I don’t think it was the eyes that knew.”
“I was surprised because I was surprised.”
“Um, I’m sorry… … .”
Si-eun turned her back on her face and walked to the door with a sullen expression on her face.
anyway it’s arbitrary When I had this thought, for some reason, Si-eun turned towards me again.
“and… … Some of the things I was bored with are gone.”
“I’m glad.”
You’re having fun talking to me. This guy is also different.
Si-eun’s lips moved again, not knowing what to say.
“Do you have any favorite snacks?”
“I don’t eat snacks. If there is fruit, it is enough to eat it.”
“okay?”
Upon hearing my answer, Si-eun raised an eyebrow.
“I’ll come to you from time to time if I’m bored.”
“What?”
I left the room with a sudden declaration.
After that day, Si-eun occasionally came to my room with fruit.
It seems you didn’t understand what I was saying… … .
