29. Invitation (1)

1.

Since that day, I haven’t had a hard time going to the library.

It wasn’t a place I really wanted to take the time to go to, but Min Arin was starting to have an almost allergic reaction.

She went home with me on Saturday after studying for about 5 hours. She

When she parted to go home, she had a very relieved expression on her face.

More than anything, she boasted that evening by sending pictures of obviously expensive food.

She

She said thank you for going out to dinner thanks to me, but she still didn’t understand what that meant.

She just thought the food looked pretty good.

Anyway, I can’t let the person I’ve been beholden to look so happy.

She made an appointment to go to the library the next day as well, and she readily agreed to the appointment.

… ….

If you have any problems.

It was said that less than an hour after she started studying, she muttered, ‘What have I done?’ And started putting on a very depressed expression.

Anyway, it seemed like it was difficult to study like that for two days in a row.

That day, somehow, the study progressed, and as we came out of the library, we came to an agreement.

Still, they didn’t say that they wouldn’t come to the library, probably because they didn’t intend to run away from the studies they had already started.

Just. The library promised to go only on weekends.

Like that, on weekdays I help with school work, and on weekends I go to the library for a week.

With the exam approaching in two weeks, I could feel that the time we were together had increased considerably.

Well, I didn’t even notice until today.

My homeroom teacher said that.

‘I think Arin has changed a lot lately?’

‘Is that so?’

‘Yes. Seunggi seems to have changed after hanging out with you all the time.’

‘I think it’s a matter of will. It’s not like we’ve been hanging around that much.’

‘Huh? Was Sam always with you when he saw you?’

‘?’

‘If you listen to the kids, they say that we often eat together at lunchtime as well as during gym class.’

If I admitted that remark, it would be like admitting that I don’t have a single friend except for Min Ah-rin.

… ….

Actually, apart from Min Ah-rin and Cheon Se-joon, I don’t really have close friends.

I’m not the kind of person who hangs up on my friends, but it’s not at all hurtful.

Just, what. What I want to say is, that statement is probably true.

Min Ah-rin is pretty early for her school start time, and she sits with me when she comes to school.

Recently, during her break time, she talked about her studies with me, so the time she went to see her friends was definitely reduced.

Even during gym class, she would go out with me to prepare for class, and sometimes eat with me at lunch.

Come to think of it, did she go out with her even during dismissal time?

Hmm.

What. It doesn’t seem to matter at all.

Aren’t you doing this because you’re studying anyway?

When the exam is over, you won’t even hear that you’re hanging around.

From then on, I will just have to focus on my life.

2.

“Min Ah-rin, why are you studying so hard these days?”

“That’s right, he didn’t even meet us.”

“What are you talking about? Yesterday, we ate lunch together.”

“That’s normal.”

What are these talking about?

Those called friends are talking absurdly with the drink I bought them in their mouths.

Nevertheless, I am a generous person.

I was very kind and answered their questions.

“I made a bet with Han Seung-gi. With midterm exam grades.”

“You’re finally crazy.”

“You’re going to beat Han Seung-gi in terms of grades?”

“No, what are you talking about?

“Oh.”

It is an unpleasant consent.

It’s just that I didn’t study normally, but I’m a smart person.

This is something Han Seung-gi acknowledged.

“But why does Han Seung-gi grant your wish?”

“When did you guys become so close?”

“He always hangs out with me.”

“No, well, how long have I been hanging out with him?”

“If you do anything these days, you’re next to Han Seung-gi.”

“Me?”

It’s the first time, no, it’s the first time.

I and Han Seunggi…… What. They hang around a bit, but isn’t it enough to hear such words?

And I kind of agree.

I’m not bragging that I go out with a boy, and when I think of the fact that he said that, he would look at me with his characteristic expressionless expression when he heard of it…….

Hmm. Just imagining it is terrifying.

I firmly denied it, but their interrogation continued.

“Don’t you guys always go home together?”

“Yes, but.”

“It’s still attached even during gym class.”

“In my free time, I play soccer with you guys.”

“Do you like Han Seung-gi?”

“No, what bullsh*t!”

“Ah. That’s not true. The one who refuses to be confessed to is Min Ah-rin. She’s a f*cking lesbian.”

“Oh, don’t be a jerk! The reason I refuse to confess is because I look like a bully!”

“Aren’t you the most bully? But how does Han Seung-gi hang out with him? It’s terrifying.”

“Really f*cking amazing.”

“He must be patient because he is kind.”

And at the moment when the government audit was continuing, Han Seung-gi opened the classroom door and came in.

Looks like they went somewhere because it was break time.

“Uh, Han Seung-gi. Where have you been?”

“I came here after pooping.”

“Uh.”

“Oh.”

“Oh.”

Ooh.

A guy who just smiles in front of others as if he’s managing his image.

No, he’s still smiling brightly. The conversation was just weird.

Are men like that? I don’t know because I’m single.

“Min Ah-rin, did you get the answer to the question you solved earlier?”

“Oh, I finally gave up on that.”

“Really? If you can’t solve it, I’ll let you know later.”

“Oh, let’s just go now. Don’t waste your time.”

“That’s right.”

“Oki. Hey, am I coming?”

I have changed a lot too.

If it was like the old days, I wouldn’t have liked to look at you.

Of course, it seems like less than two weeks have passed since I started studying, but anyway.

But suddenly, the friends who talk to Han Seung-gi.

“Han Seung-gi, isn’t it scary to go out with Min A-rin?”

“…? Not really?”

“No really. Some boys still avoid it.”

“Well… Personally, rather than being scary. That, what is it? Isn’t Min Ah-rin pretty?”

“Wow… It’s so amazing. What does he teach me about studying? Isn’t it frustrating?”

“Not really? Minah Lin likes her brain.”

As expected. Han Seung-gi is different no matter what.

You know my essence well.

Understanding the true nature of others is something only a genius like me can do…… It must be maybe.

Anyway, hearing such compliments made me laugh naturally.

Hmm. I’m not the kind of person who laughs so much.

Is this because of the feeling of being acknowledged?

“This is me. The results will tell you how great I am.”

I uttered such lines with pride and followed Han Seung-gi back to my seat.

‘Isn’t that what they have?’

‘It’s the first time I’ve seen Min Ah-rin smile like that. He’s changed a lot lately.’

‘Because he smiles like that, he doesn’t look scared.’

‘Does Han Seung-gi like Min Ah-rin? How do you get that kind of evaluation?’

I heard those words coming from behind me, but it didn’t matter.

For some reason, Han Seung-gi’s praise makes me feel better now.

I don’t really know, but after listening to it, it made me happy.

Hmm.

Why are you doing this?

… ….

Well, it’s not important.

3.

Han Seung-gi’s private tutoring started today as well.

“Move to the side. You won’t be able to see it very well.”

“No… I think this is enough. I have good eyesight.”

“All right, do whatever you want.”

A very trivial conversation took place.

Han Seung-gi’s breath touches his hand. How to say It’s never a bad feeling. Should I say that I feel something tickling?

There are times when it gets in the way of concentration.

Anyway, people shine the most when they do things that suit them.

If you look around, you can see that he is concentrating on solving the problem.

When I see him at times like this, I get the feeling that he is definitely handsome.

Well, that’s not important. Whether he’s handsome or not, I have no interest in him.

Han Seung-gi has excellent tutoring skills.

I don’t have the ability to teach people who don’t have enough studying skills yet, but there are certain things that can be felt just by looking at them.

“Min Ah-rin, aren’t you concentrating?”

“Uh, uh? I’m concentrating… I’m…”

Of course, to be honest, there are times when I feel a little scared.

Something that catches my concentration while I was only looking at the book.

When I talk with my voice lower than usual.

“What, did you have something to say?”

Like this.

I hesitated for a moment before replying that I just watched it without thinking.

Hmm. No.

I thought it might sound a little strange.

From noble mtl dot com

… ….

I’ve had that happen a couple of times in my life, but now that I think about it, it feels a bit strange.

I thought you were just looking blankly at the man’s face. What, what It’s not even a cheap confession.

Thoughts that I wouldn’t normally do began to dominate my head.

Actually, even if Han Seung-gi gave me a useless misunderstanding, I wondered if it was that important between friends, but today I started to think a lot.

“What, why?”

Is that why?

When I heard Han Seung-gi say something like that, I felt like I had to make an excuse.

“Uh… This weekend… Uh…, Are you planning to study at my house?”

“Your house? Why?”

No! Do you think this is even weirder?

But I could easily come up with a new excuse.

“Uh…, That…, I just went out to eat the other day and talked about you. Uh, my parents said they wanted to see it…”

“Uh… your parents?”

“Um…. That…. Ah, yes. It must have been interesting for me to study.”

… ….

Perfect.

An excuse?

Well, what can I do with the truth! I’m not lying!

“Well…, yes. It doesn’t matter.”

The words of acceptance came out easily from Han Seung-gi’s mouth.

By the way, it’s a while to be happy that the excuse was successful.

The condition of my room started to pop into my head.

… ….

Last time, I greeted Han Seung-gi without cleaning hard, but for some reason I thought I didn’t want to do that this time.

Hmm. What.

It’s not a very dirty room even if you don’t have to clean it.

… ….

I don’t know. Cleaning, that’s a good thing.

I seem to have a lot of useless thoughts today.
