14. Call me sister

I’d rather have quietly pretended not to know.

This is how I felt when I witnessed Han Seo-ah blushing.

I really shouldn’t have said anything.

I couldn’t believe it, but I really didn’t think I would end up in a situation like this La Novel.

It was common in the love comedy genre.

A scene in which the main character witnesses the heroine muttering, thinking that the main character was away.

‘······My life is not a love comedy.’

However, this was a clear reality.

It wasn’t like cartoons or animations where people live in pictures or live.

[I don’t know what to say. Did Siwoo hear everything?]

Of course, seeing your childhood friend’s true feelings wasn’t something that would happen in real life.

Anyway, whatever happened.

First of all, getting out of this awkward atmosphere was the priority.

So I had no choice but to tell a lie.

“Hanseo-ah? What did you just say?”

“······What, didn’t you hear?”

“Uh. I heard about the clothes style. I haven’t heard of it since then…”

“It’s okay! You didn’t need to hear anything!”

[I’m glad. If Siwoo had heard it all, she would have been unable to see her face for the rest of her life.]

When I lightly toss her bait with a lie, Seo-ah Han jumps right in and bites her.

Still, if it was the usual Han Seo-ah, he would have doubted why I said such a thing.

How much do you want to get over the current situation and bite the bait without hesitation?

I thought it went well enough with just this much, but I decided to match the rhythm just in case.

“Something I don’t need to hear?”

“There was a dress I recommended to Nayeon the other day. I was looking at the clothes style that went well with it.”

“······Ah, was that what you were talking about earlier?”

“Of course. Then what did you think you were talking about?”

“I think I’m looking for something that goes well with the clothes you recommended.”

“······What kind of nonsense is that. There’s no reason to look for clothes that look good when I’m with you.”

[I’m going to come back alone later to find clothes that look like a couple with Siu.]

[Right now, the risk of being found out by Siwoo is too great.]

If I had such an idea, I would have done it from the beginning.

Why did they rule out the situation where they might be found out, and make me do something that I don’t even know how to do?

I’ve been complaining about this and that to the end of my throat.

I decided to let Han Seo-ah go because she thought she would come back later by herself.

“Wow, wait.”

“What? What happened all of a sudden?”

Han Seo-ah put on a puzzled expression at her exclamation that suddenly jumped out of my mouth.

“······No, nothing.”

I didn’t mind that expression.

To be precise, I didn’t even have the energy left to care.

‘Did I just tell Han Seo-ah that she’s cute?’

Because I was quite shocked by the thought that came to my mind unconsciously.

Are you really out of your mind?

Somehow, I had to come up with such nonsensical thoughts several times a day.

How cute is Han Seo-ah?

She’s so cute that Hanseo who always said that she’s an idiot to me.

Absolutely not possible…

– You don’t even know this. Siwoo Lee you stupid idiot.

From noble mtl dot com

While denying that it was absolutely not the case, a memory from the past suddenly came to mind.

Bang-!

“You crazy bastard! Why are you banging your head all of a sudden!”

“····.”

I hit my head on the desk in front of me.

The reason was simple.

Because I couldn’t stay the same anymore.

Because my face was so hot, I thought I had to cool it down somehow.

Originally, primitive methods work best.

Seoah Han screamed as if she wanted to see all the crazy people.

“It’s still April, have you already eaten the heat?”

“······No.”

“I said no, but I’m not crazy, why are you doing that all of a sudden!”

[What should I do? Siwoo looks really bad. Should I take him to the hospital?]

“The hospital is fine…”

“Hospital? Suddenly, what kind of hospital? Do you want to go to the hospital right now?”

[What is it? I haven’t said anything about hospitals yet…]

“No. Usually you talk about hospitals at this point. I just tried it first.”

“Is that so? I thought I had to go to the hospital again.”

[It was like that. But doesn’t that mean that Siwoo usually remembers everything I said?]

[If it’s really like that, maybe you’ll be a little happy? It’s proof that Siwoo has what I’m saying in his heart.]

“····.”

There really is no time to be vigilant.

He was running fine, but why is he suddenly thinking about that again?

My face got hot for no reason, so I spat out the words as bluntly as possible.

“······It’s done, it seems like something.”

“Did you change your clothes already? The clothes I gave you earlier?”

“How long does it take to change?”

“Hmm, is it okay? Is it because I chose it?”

“What does it have to do with what you picked and what suits me…”

“Of course it doesn’t matter… Uh. I just roughly selected them.”

[I almost said that I know better than anyone what clothes look good on Siu.]

[You should be careful with your words, Han Seo-ah. Do you want to be like before again?]

Now, Han Seo-ah’s inner thoughts are blaming herself and even attempting self-reflection.

······Yes, well.

I just wish you knew.

I also like that you don’t make mistakes.

That way, I don’t have to do acting that I don’t even have to do.

“What is it, Seo-ah, when did you come?”

“Eugene sister?”

As I was nodding her head thinking about that, I heard her voice for the first time in my life.

“I went to the bathroom for a while. Did you have a customer?”

“Could that notepad be your sister’s work?”

“Of course. I’m the owner here. Then whose work would it be?”

“······I don’t have anything to say because she’s like an older sister.”

“By the way, isn’t Nayeon with you today? A boyfriend?”

“What a boyfriend!”

As soon as she hears the word boyfriend, Seo-ah Han screams as if in a fit.

Not some kind of pterosaur.

You can just politely say no, why are you screaming?

[Boyfriend? My boyfriend is Siwoo.]

[I’m happy just imagining it, but I’m still too shy.]

······But looking at that, I think I can roughly understand it again.

Anyway, I also had to be polite to strangers.

“Hello, sister. My name is Lee Si-woo, my stupid childhood friend.”

“Who’s an idiot!”

I politely greeted Seo-ah Han, who was still screaming.

“Ah. Are you sick?”

“Yes? What is that…”

“I heard a lot about Seo-ah and Na-yeon. Our Seo-a boyfriend…”

“Eugene sister!”

“…A childhood friend. Uh.”

“Seriously, sister. Do you keep doing that?”

“So what did I do? Seo Ah. This older sister hasn’t done anything yet.”

“······Cee.”

“Oh…”

It hasn’t even been 5 minutes since we met, but I felt like I met a master who exceeded my imagination.

I can’t believe there is someone who treats Seoah Han so well.

As far as I remember, Han Seo-ah’s parents weren’t like this either.

The idea of wanting to get close came to me very quickly.

“Did you say Eugene… Teacher?”

“He’s a teacher. Just call him Eugene.”

“Yes, Eugene sister.”

“He’s a good kid. Our little brother Siwoo.”

“······Hey, Lee Si-woo. The other day, you said you couldn’t do it because the word older sister didn’t stick well to you.”

“······Me?”

At the word “Noona,” Which she casually spat out, Hanseo suddenly hardened her face and argued with me.

Did I say that?

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t remember anything like that.

Since she’s really making an expression that she can’t remember, she said with a very sad expression on her face.

“You did that last time. The word older sister doesn’t stick well, so you can’t call me older sister.”

“Wait a minute, was that the story? That person was you. Not a real sister like Eugene’s sister.”

“Anyway! The other day, you said you couldn’t call me older sister!”

“····.”

Why is he suddenly doing this?

What kind of strange story was there that made him say something childish that even elementary school students passing by wouldn’t do?

‘······I can’t even see my heart.’

I couldn’t even see Han Seo-ah’s inner heart, which would be the only salvation in this situation.

As if the childish words he was spitting out were expressing to me that Seoah Han’s sincerity itself.

So you’re really serious about that?

Eugene noona can’t stop laughing at that childish thing?

“······Large.”

Actually, Eugene sister was desperately holding back her laughter.

She used both hands to cover her mouth, not allowing the slightest sound to escape.

She openly put on an expression of disappointment at Eugene, who seemed to have no intention of helping.

She glanced at Han Seo-ah, who was still making an expression of resentment.

“······So. What do you want to say?”

“What do you want to say?”

“There’s something I want to say to me, so it’s not like this… Isn’t that what you’re saying?”

“······Make me your sister too.”

“What?”

Did I just hear that wrong?

Can you hear the nonsense of Han Seo-ah’s inner heart followed by the nonsense of Han Seo-ah’s voice?

It seemed like that.

If it weren’t for that, Hanseo wasn’t crazy, and she couldn’t have said that.

“Just like you did to Eugene, call me sister.”

“····.”

“Just once. I don’t want it twice.”

“······What is that?”

“Please call me sister just once.”

I don’t know just once.

I can only say one thing for sure.

Hanseo-ah’s expression right now is the most serious one I’ve ever seen.
