18 – Gaze : Episode 18
＜1＞
Han-gyeol went to the basketball court with a boy from his class.
From the point I stopped being a mate, I spent a lot less time with Han Kyul.
Even though she comes to school early in the morning, we can’t have a conversation because we’re far away from each other.
We stayed together until dinner time after class, but today we went to play basketball.
“Eunha. If you regret it, she should have just told you not to go.”
“What-?! No! No it’s not like that! At all! Never!”
“Hmm~ I think I looked at Lee Hangyul’s back for too long for that~”
“Tea, it must be an illusion. Let’s study that study! It’s a mock exam next week!”
“If it’s Eunha, that’s it~”
She suddenly remembered what Hyeon-joo unnie said over the weekend, so she felt even more embarrassed for no reason.
As she runs away, she smokes a reference book and reads her fingerprints from top to bottom.
But I’m not sure why everyone talks that way.
Did you stick with Han-gyeol too much?
Is that so?
“Hey Harim.”
“Yes. Why?”
“I’m just asking out of curiosity… “
“Yes. Ask.”
“What did you say that for?”
“Huh? What are you talking about?”
“That’s why I thought Han-gyeol missed going to basketball. For what reason did you think that?”
“Ah- did you feel bad? If so, I apologize. Sorry.”
Harim seriously handed over an apology, so I waved my hand and said.
“Not at all! It wasn’t that I felt bad or anything. I was just genuinely curious as to why you thought that… “
“Ah- honestly?”
“Yes. Honestly.”
“Are you really honest?”
“Yes. You can be really honest.”
When I asked for trust, Harim looked me in the eyes and said.
“Yeah… Is it because Eunha seems to like Lee Hangyul?”
“Eh-?! Why?! In some aspects?! There’s no particular incident with Han-gyeol?!”
“Ah- I’m not sure. But Eunha seems to be interested in Lee Hangyul.”
“That… May I ask how you feel that way?”
“Does Eunha seem to smile particularly brightly when she is with Lee Hangyul?”
“… Huh?”
Judging by Harim’s expression, it wasn’t a joke.
I just blinked and waved my hand in the air to explain.
“That, that! Because Han Kyul is both considerate and witty!”
“Well, I think Lee Hangyul is on that side. I don’t see it often.”

“Yes, yes! Harim thinks so too?! It’s because Han Kyul is a bit comfortable!”
“Even so, even if Lee Hangyul isn’t doing anything, Eunha looks a little happy?”
“Ah! That’s because Han Kyul is a comfortable person. Doesn’t it make you feel comfortable when you’re together?! Do you feel like you are always caring about something? Uh-! That feeling of being respected!”
“Um- So in conclusion, Lee Hangyul is a very comfortable person for Eunha?!”
“Exactly! It’s as Harim said!”
“Isn’t that love?”
“… ?!”
I didn’t get Harim’s refutation and just waved her hand around.
“Ahhh-! That’s why-!”
“Eunha. Could you keep your hand still?”
“Ha, Harim is misunderstanding. It hasn’t been that long since you and Anji have known each other?”
“Isn’t there a set amount of time it takes to like someone?”
“But you still need absolute time, right?! Yes?!”
“There is a saying about love at first sight, right?”
“Ugh… But it’s not like I fell in love at first sight with Han-gyeol!”
“Then I must have fallen in love with one or five eyes.”
“Eh-?!”
Like? Do I like Hangyul?
At that moment, my face turned hot.
“Well, it’s just my opinion, and it’s not like I’ve decided on Eunha’s feelings~ If it’s not Eunha, it’s not.”
“Ugh… Hangyeol and I are friends. It must have looked like that because I was hanging out with Gyul often at the beginning of the semester.”
“Yes. If it’s Eunha, then that’s it. Ah- I hate studying. Shall we go out and cool off for a bit?”
“Yes. Let’s take a walk for a while.”
It’s the same thing that I can’t get my hands on studying.
I was thinking of just going around the playground and going back to class, but I saw kids playing basketball on the basketball court.
I naturally rolled my eyes at the thought that there would be Han Kyul, but I turned my head.
I didn’t want Harim to misunderstand.
But Harim seems to have noticed that I was looking away.
“Lee Hangyul must be playing basketball, shall we go and see him?”
“Huh?! It doesn’t matter if I go right there, but what about me? Really!”
“You just have to look around a little bit. Let’s go and see for a moment.”
“Yes.”
Heading back to class, I turned toward the basketball court.
With each step I took, Han Kyul came into my field of vision better.
But I met eyes with Jeongyeon who was sitting in the corner of the basketball court.
“Huh? Eunha!”
“Jeong Yeon-ah. What’s going on here?”
“Ah, Seoha is playing basketball right now, so I came to watch.”
“Oh yeah?”
When I looked inside the basketball court again, Seoha was there too.
Seoha was facing Hankyul while bouncing a basketball.
I had a strange feeling, but I didn’t know what it was.
“Hello Harim too.”
“Hello Jeongyeon. When it comes to Gangseo, Jeongyeon is your boyfriend, right?”
“Yes. Oh, come to think of it, are you doing it with your class?”
“Yes. Who is winning?”
“It’s a tie. The kids in your class over there are good at basketball. I said goodbye once. What was your name?”
Come to think of it, I was heading from the library to the classroom at the beginning of the semester.
It was Hankyul who had met Seoharang and Jeongyeon.
“Ah- let’s call it Lee Hangyul.”
“Yes. Isn’t that the kid who was with Eunha at the time?”
“Uh uh… ?! Huh. That’s right. A classmate.”
Jeongyeon doesn’t seem to be doing anything wrong, but she was just worried.
She looked a little and she was thinking of leaving immediately.
“Eunha. Now that I’ve seen it, shall we go see it to the end?”
“Um… no. Let’s go back in a little while. hahahaha.”
“Oh yeah? OK then.”
After that, we watched basketball without talking.
Han-gyeol energetically let go of the basketball from his hand even while sweating profusely.
Even though he was thrown from quite a distance, he was consistent in scoring a goal into the basketball hoop.
The classmates were praising Han Kyul, but Han Kyul was just smiling bashfully.
He deserved to be overjoyed, but Han Kyul only kept a faint smile.
“Hangyeol is happy, but he seems to be pretending not to be happy. hahahaha.”
“Huh?”
“Ah- nothing!”
It was then that I moved my attention back to the basketball court.
Seoha floated high, and Hankyul stood in front of him.
“Huh?”
I was startled and closed my eyes for a moment, but I immediately opened my eyes at the sound of the two bodies colliding.
As soon as I saw Han Kyul lying on his side, I didn’t know-
“Hangyeol!”
I stepped inside the basketball court.
Then I ran to the side of the fallen Han Kyul and sat down.
“Are you seriously hurt?! Look!”
“Uh… ?!”
“Looks like you hit it really hard! Didn’t you hit your head too? Wrist? Are you sick here?”
Han Kyul was holding her left wrist, so I carefully grabbed her wrist to check.
“uuu?!”
“Are you sick enough to scream?! Uh? It was very swollen-!”
“Oh, no. Are you okay… ! It’s not that bad!”
“There is no blood… Would you like to move your wrists a little?!”
Hearing my words, Han Kyul quietly moved her wrist.
“How is it? It hurts?”
“It’s throbbing, but I don’t think it hurts too much…”
“Then, let’s go to the health room and put on a patch first. Can it happen?”
I stared at Hangyul’s face.
It was Hankyul with a slightly red face.
“Ah… I think she sprained her ankle a bit.”
“Ah- I can’t bleed… I’ll help you for now. Let’s go to the health room. Now, wake up carefully.”
“Ah- thank you.”
It was time to support Han Kyul, who happened with my help.
Oh, come to think of it, it looks like Seoha also fell down, but Seoha didn’t seem to be seriously hurt.
“Ah! Sorry about that over there I was too ambitious. Galaxy I will do the support.”
Seoha apologized to Hankyul, but the two aren’t that close…
“No. I was going to go back to class with Hanyul anyway, so I’ll take you to the exam room.”
“Ah… okay. Did you say Lee Hangyul over there? I’m really sorry. Are you seriously hurt?”
“Ah- not at all. Don’t mind. You can do that while exercising. Enough then. Galaxy let’s go.”
Supporting Han Kyul with his arm on my shoulder, I walked toward the infirmary.
She said sorry to Ha-rim who was standing outside the basketball court, but she told Han-gyeol to pack his bag.
“Ah- Then should I bring the Galaxy bag as well?”
“Oh, will you? But wouldn’t it be too much to bring everything by yourself?”
“Then I have to ask the boys too.”
“Then I will wait at the health room with Hankyul.”
“Yes.”
Kyul Hanyi, who was limping, was somehow smiling even though he was injured.
You might have cracked your wrist or leg, but what’s funny?
“Does it make you laugh when you’re hurt?”
“Huh? Am I laughing?”
“Yeah. He’s laughing a little.”
“No, it’s because I won basketball after all.”
“What-?! Is it time to think about basketball?”
As soon as I moved my body, Han Kyul staggered greatly.
“Ouch-! Be careful, be careful!”
“I just need Eunha to support me well.”
“You’re kidding again. Are you sure you’re leaving?”
“hahahahaha! I’m sorry. I was wrong. Let’s go a little slower.”
“Should I walk carefully?”
“Yes”
