#40. It was tea. That.
We left the cafe and walked straight along the main road.
Since the Han River is right in front of us, Yu Shi-hwa asked if we would like to talk there.
I wanted to go there to tell a great story, but the weather was pretty good, so I replied that I would know for now.
And to be honest, I wondered what you came to me to talk about.
Asked if she would like to buy a can of beer, she said yes to her question.
I picked up one of the same type as her without much thought.
A can of beer in the darkened Han River.
It wouldn’t have been strange if we were friends, but my relationship with you is…
This situation just felt awkward.
Sihwa Yu, sitting on a quiet bench where there were no people, didn’t say anything for a while.
Chwiik.
The sound of her can of beer that she picked up echoed loudly.
She remembers that she didn’t drink very well, but she gulped and gulped down her beer, feeling upset.
“Ha…”
Taking a deep breath, she raised her head and looked at her Han River.
“Mr. Jena. Me.”
“What is it?”
“It was a car.”
…Huh? Was it a car?
I could tell who the subject was without asking.
However, for confirmation, I chose to ask once.
“…To Choi In-wook?”
“Yes.”
…How should I answer this?
Why did you come all the way here in the first place and tell me?
“I see… I’m sorry… Why are you telling me that?”
Sihwa Yoo slowly turned her head to meet her eyes.
“Jenna.”
She called my name in a slightly trembling voice.
“What did I lack?”
How do I know that?
She came in and said it was a car, but now she was the one who asked me to analyze why it was a car.
It’s okay to say these things to the person who is Chain, but the story didn’t progress until then.
“If you explain it like that, how do I respond?”
I answered the beer can with my hand.
“You have to be a little more specific to tell me what to say, leave out the causal relationship and tell me what to say with only the result. I.”
“That’s right.”
After saying that, Yoo Shi-hwa, who was silent for a while, explained the story to me.
“There was one thing that Choi Inwook did wrong to me.”
“I was outraged by his behavior and said bad things to him.”
“He apologized, but at the time I had no intention of accepting it.”
“Because it was really Choi Inwook’s fault.”
…What. This feeling of embarrassment.
I couldn’t confirm the specifics because he didn’t tell me what was wrong, but there was a corner that was strangely similar to the story told by Choi In-wook in his previous life.
“But why did you confess? Then. Isn’t the situation over because he made a mistake and got mad at Mr. Sihwa?”
“That’s…”
Sihwa Yoo kicked her on the floor with a troubled expression.
“I still like him, even if he does such an ugly thing.”
“So I confessed again and said that I didn’t like Choi In-wook?”
“That’s the way it is.”
Yes. Okay.
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Neither is normal.I made a very clear conclusion.
I’m a really kind person.
“I only did the awning.”
I noticed in real time that Yu Shi-hwa’s pupils were enlarged in response to my answer.
“…Yes?”
“It was only a child. Mr. Yoo Shihwa.”
She bit her lip, not expecting me to answer this.
“Then what would you have done if it was Jena?”
“I’ll ask you a question.”
I spoke to her in her firm tone.
“How much does Yoo Shi-hwa like Choi In-wook?”
“…A lot. A lot.”
“Then go and beg. You don’t come all the way here and do this to me. You should go to Inwook Choi and beg.”
Yoo Si-hwa bit her lip to see if her pride was hurting her to unilaterally agree with what I said.
“But… Choi In-wook also obviously did something wrong…”
I lost my mind. This.
“If that’s so important, just find another guy. It seems you’re not desperate for Yoo Shi-hwa.”
I was going to carry all the flaws of Choi In-wook in my previous life, and I actually did it.
Because I really liked it. Nope because I loved you
Because I thought that this person would be okay to entrust everything to me.
Of course, Yoo Shi-hwa and Choi In-wook are still academy students.
It must have been a confession of ordinary young people, not even on the premise of marriage, but, nevertheless, Yu Shi-hwa’s attitude only felt funny.
She didn’t think it was the attitude of someone who really liked her. That one.
Laughter came out.
“It’s a story that I would have done like that. Well… I don’t know how Sihwa will take it.”
Sihwa Yoo poured the rest of her beer into her mouth and got up.
“…Thank you.”
“I think it’s the price of beer.”
Because she did her calculations.
Sihwa Yoo had a slightly different atmosphere from what I said before.
“Then let’s go.”
“I do. Then.”
Sihwa Yoo bowed her head slightly to me and then trudged away from me.
Leaving her alone, I watched her disappearing direction.
I want to smoke…
However, this place is not in the Citizens Park.
There was no way I could smoke.
It must not have been that I was drunk with just a can of beer, but it was difficult to understand why my heart was so shaky.
I should be happy because she said that she had ruined my marriage in her previous life.
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
No. Since I made up my mind not to get involved, should I be calm, thinking that I just heard someone else’s story?I don’t know…
After leaving the park, I entered the alleyway and picked up a cigarette.
Write. Whoo…
Like a lie, we are no longer strangers.
… Choi In-wook.
I thought he missed a little bit.

The two weeks passed really quickly.
Preparing for a pair with Harin continued every day after class.
For that reason, there was almost no time to set foot in the club.
I often felt like I was missing something because I didn’t go, but now I had to focus on what I had to do.
I heard that the student council is still temporarily suspending activities for the first year, but it was not known how long this status would last.
However, I thought that it might be rather fortunate because the situation where I had to face Sihwa was avoided.
And finally today.
The last day of the midterm evaluation of our class 7 was bright.
We have already prepared quite a few wins according to the plan we prepared.
There were no significant variables.
Students prepared hard at their own level, but they were not enough to become our opponents.
Of course, I always took the role of baiting or inducing vigilance at the forefront.
I thought that I only need to show my performance for a moment in the last evaluation today.
If you show a brilliant figure and lose as it is, the development you promised with Harin was complete.
“Inwook-ah!”
Harin called to me, who was sitting in the waiting area of the stadium.
“Uh. Harin-ah. Are you here now?”
“Yeah, haven’t you started yet?”
“It’s coming soon.”
We sat side by side and watched the match where our opponents were decided.
Definitely, the movements weren’t bad because they were friends who came up after winning many times.
“Is that good enough?”
In particular, the movement of the student who predicted the sword’s trajectory by rotating 180 degrees was unusual.
“That’s right. They’re good. They.”
Harin looked at the stadium with her eyes that said it was interesting.
A fierce battle ensued, and the winner was decided with a single negligence.
“Park Jin-hyuk and Jung Soo-ah win the pair!”
The pair we praised also won.
“Now. Then, after lunch, we will proceed with the final match of the 7th class representative.”
“Let’s go eat some rice! Inuk-ah!”
Harin got up from her seat and invited me.
Recently, I naturally nodded because I got used to eating lunch and dinner with Harin.
We went to the restaurant and ate and returned to the stadium, and we checked the plan for the last time in the players waiting area.
“Now. So. If they come out like before, go according to plan A. In the end, then, will Inwook, you leave the stadium?”
“I think that would be the easiest.”
“Yeah, then let’s do that.”
Finally, I took a sip of water and followed the instructions of the host and came up to the stadium…
For some reason, our opponent did not appear.
What? I know that they will appear in the arena together at the same time…?
The host was also embarrassed, so he left us a message to wait for a moment.
The host, who came back, conveyed the situation to everyone with a confused expression.
“Now, the 7th class representative has been decided to be Yun Ha-rin Choi In-wook pair. Congratulations!”
Me and Harin. The people who were sitting in the spectators also looked confused for a moment.
The host gave us an additional explanation as to whether he was embarrassed when the applause did not pour out.
“Park Jin-hyuk and Jung Soo-ah announced their intention to the academy that they would abstain, saying they did not have the confidence to beat Yun Ha-rin and Choi In-wook.”
Harin protested to her teacher, who was watching from the audience, as if she was absurd.
“Teacher! Was there an option to abstain in this evaluation?”
The homeroom teacher hesitated for a moment and then nodded his head.
“Uh! Yes! Congrats on being represented. Ha-rin Yoon!”
Of her he gave her thumbs up and held out towards her.
“Oh, really…”
Harin patted her forehead as if in pain.
“Anyway, Harin Youn and Inwook Choi! Welcome to the 7th class representative!”
After the host’s explanation and the teacher’s permission were given, the rest of the students who were watching us applauded.
“Now, can I listen to a word of resolution for my classmates?”
Harin didn’t look so good, so I thought I’d do it, but Harin grabbed the microphone that the host gave me first.
“Class 7 folks! We will do our best to become the representatives of all of you, unconditionally, our class. I will let the academy know that the pair between me and Inwook is the best!”
…For a person who deliberately wanted to lose, it was a very positive comment.
What is it? Were you planning on working hard anyway?
My classmates cheered on her words.
Especially the male students were very loud.
After the representative of our class was decided and the evaluation of the last 8 classes was completed, the facilitator finally introduced the representative pairs of each class.
I thought it had nothing to do with anyone…
A name that could not be overlooked came from his name.
“Class 5 representative. Yoo Shi-hwa and Park Min-seok pair!”
From the beginning, I didn’t have in mind to be the class representative, so I wasn’t thinking at all about who would come out of the other class.
If this happens, I…
Is it necessary to stick with a poem that has memories of a previous life…?
…It’s really not that easy.
