Following that, Kyung-hun exited the classroom.
Won chewed on his finger that was skillfully circling his lips and asked to himself.
He is clearly a kind man, but his true nature is arrogant and mean.
Maybe except when you are in front of me, you frequently wear a mask on your face.
How can I approach you?
Tap, tap.
Won closed the book he had been pondering, bouncing his nails off his teeth, and got up from his seat.
His eyes narrowed while looking at Woo-jae who had been sitting on top of the cabinet.
His sharp eyes, which had been staring into an empty space, turned towards the neat footsteps.
Woo-jae smiled happily, blinking his eyes as if someone he had been waiting for had finally revealed themselves.
"Move aside."
"Make me."
It happened to be my cabinet that Woojae sat on.
With a cold voice, Woo-jae spoke up.
"Is this a name that suits a senior?"
If it was a question asked with no other intention but transparency, I was willing to answer. No. Snake and salvation.
Even thinking about it, it was an absurd harmony.
"I won't say it twice."
"Snakes mate all day, is it true?"
Unfazed, Woo-jae asked a question that caught Won off guard.
"You waited to ask that?"
"I don't know if you're aware, but I get impatient when I wait. But I waited for you for 10 minutes here, senior."
Woo-jae's raised corner of the mouth felt unusually cold.
Won faced Woo-jae directly.
Won felt relieved as Woo-jae's true colors showed, knowing that he wasn't the only one who had to avoid other people's eyes.
Won concealed his true feelings with a smile.
The smooth laughter made his innocent impression stand out.
"Why, are you curious now? If you were that desperate, you should have confronted me in the classroom earlier. Do the kids know? You're a hypocrite."
Of course, the sound that burst out from within was not at all gentle.
"You've been spying on me all along, and that's what you found out?"
It was a disgusting remark, shaking his weakness, but it was an immature provocation.
If he had shown signs of being flustered or angry, he would have sued him, but Kwon Woo-jae just laughed as if he found it amusing.
"I didn't forget our promise. I'll feed you the information, so don't try to snatch it."
Won showed a clear smile and lightly pushed Woo-jae's side with the back of his hand.
Woojae, who didn't miss the timing, grabbed Won's hand.
"So, when?"
The warmth in his hand was unpleasant.
Won's face twisted as he shook off Woo-jae's hand.
However, the firmly held hand was trapped in Woojae's grip without any movement.
"Kwon Woo-jae."
"Tell me."
"Make time and contact me. And let me warn you, even after keeping the promise, if you act like this, I won't leave you alone."
Won swung his hand widely.
After escaping from Woojae's grasp, he immediately turned his back.
He was annoyed.
The lingering warmth in his hand was still unpleasant, so Won shook his hand as if shaking off moisture.
Won wandered around a university pub that he had never been to, not even as a freshman.
Even though it was not yet 8 o'clock, the pub was crowded with students.
As the sun set, the students occupied one table each and spent a pleasant time together.
The crowd sitting tightly together shouted loudly, almost causing my eardrums to burst.
My nervous eyes twitched.
Is this the right place? Won looked around a two-story bar and climbed the stairs.
"Oh? Senior!"
As soon as we went upstairs, my breath was taken away.
There was no time to look around.
My keen senses reacted to the call.
It couldn't be the voice calling me. I felt strangely uneasy.
At that moment, someone grabbed Won's hand. Won stiffly lowered his gaze.
His eyes followed the apricot-colored hand and finally landed on the person holding his hand.
"Wow, you really came. Senior, is this your first time drinking with us?"
It was Kyunghun.
His eyes, looking at Won as if it was amazing, were filled with the scent of alcohol.
Gwon didn't smile or frown.
He just looked at Kyung-hun, who was leading him to the table, in a daze.
Until then, I couldn't make sense of it.
What is happening right now?
"Wow. Senior, hello. Woo-jae, you're really close with the senior?"
Of course, suspicions could be dispelled easily.
It was an unexpected situation to be involved in a drinking party.
Won awkwardly rolled his eyes even with the greetings coming from all directions.
It didn't take long for Gwon Woo-jae to come into view.
He was staring at Won and smiling faintly.
[Come to the Fever in front of the school - Crazy]
After the lecture, as usual, I was resting at home.
Then suddenly, my phone vibrated, and when Won checked the message, he stood up as if he had been waiting for today.
Until I caught a taxi, I felt relieved.
But gradually, the feeling of relief sank into uneasiness.
I clenched and unclenched my nervous hands.
A promise was a promise, so I didn't think about canceling it now. I even hoped that from today on, I could settle the debt and go back to my usual daily life without getting involved with crazy people.
But why, why on earth...?
Why were there more than ten people in the seat where only Woo-jae should be?
This question pierced my mind.
I should have doubted at least once.
It was my mistake.
Won clenched his fist, keeping his mouth shut.
Since entering university, Won had always been absent from any gatherings.
But now, as if he didn't know that, the students sitting there applauded and praised Woo-jae when he sent a text.
"Senior, come and sit here."
Praise makes even whales dance. It seems to improve their mood.
Woo-jae, who lightly smiled and held a glass of alcohol, pointed to the seat next to him.
Seeing Woo-jae, a thousand emotions boiled up inside.
The fire was blazing, and the juniors hurriedly sat down.
Won sat at the outer edge, not the seat Woo-jae pointed to.
The man sitting next to Won introduced himself as Kim Song-hak and offered a new glass.
When Won accepted the drink, the attention of the people sitting around him focused on him.
"Don't worry about me and have fun."
"Hey, why are you like that? It was difficult for us to approach you at first, but we also wanted to be close to our seniors."
That's what I didn't like.
It seemed like they didn't care about the opinions of the person involved.
Won forced a smile, as if trying to swallow the words that seemed to burst out at any moment.
He looked around at the people sitting in their seats.
Woo-jae, who had a firm expression, was caught like a fish on a hook.
His slightly tilted face, as if he didn't like it, turned towards Won.
"Woo-jae doesn't look good. What happened today?"
"What? Why, Woo-jae oppa? Oppa, what happened?"
"Why, what's wrong? Woo-jae, are you not feeling well?"
When worried words were directed towards
Woo-jae, the gazes that had been focused on me scattered suddenly.
Woo-jae soon smiled as if it was nothing.
"It's nothing. I'm a little drunk."
"Drunk? That's ridiculous."
"I knew it from the moment you kept giving me drinks. You're the problem."
"What are you talking about? Oppa didn't drink much. Is your condition not good today?"
"Ah, now that you mention condition, I remember. That day when your condition wasn't good, you drank so much and got drunk..."
The topic naturally shifted like flowing water.
The atmosphere in the room became lively.
Won stared at Woo-jae, who was rubbing his lower lip with his index finger.
