Rumors don't always spread in the direction I intended.
Especially in a space like high school.

 

 

“Do you guys… have something?”

 

 

Eun-jeong's questioning tone was so ambiguous that I shook my head right away.

 

“What is it?”

 

“No, just. You and Jeonghan are a bit ambiguous these days.”

 

 

The word ambiguous.
Is there anything that confuses me as much as that word?

Yoon Jung-han and I are not related. But even though we are not related, he catches my eye too often.

During class, I can hear the sound of students turning the pages of their textbooks without anyone saying anything, and during break time, they always come to me and lie down or stare blankly out the window.

It feels like he knows I'm there but pretends not to know, and then blurts out a word.

 

 

“But you really bite your lips a lot.”

 

 

After hearing that, I started to care about myself too.
Are you biting your lips or are your eyes always looking in the opposite direction?

 

And crucially, that question that day.

 

“Don’t you have something to say to me?”

 

 

That wasn't a thoughtless joke.
There was a certainty in her eyes that she knew something, and she also had the composure not to hide it.

During lunch time, I decided to deliberately distance myself from Jeonghan.
I didn't want to stand out to other people for no reason, and it was funny that I was giving meaning to things on my own.

 

 

“Hey, class president. The teacher told you to tell her that the lunch menu has changed.”

 

 

But of all people, he called me.
I approached him, groaning inwardly.

 

 

“Teacher? Why don’t you say it yourself…”

 

“You’re my older sister.”

 

 

Jeonghan said nonchalantly.
I looked around. Fortunately, no one seemed to have heard.

 

 

“Hey. I told you not to say that at school.”

 

“Yeah. I told you so you could hear it.”

 

 

Yoon Jeong-han speaks with the corners of her lips slightly raised.
Seriously, I'm going crazy. Why do you keep saying such annoying things?

 

 

“You’re acting strange these days.”

 

"okay?"

 

“Yeah. I feel like I keep crossing the line.”

 

“But you said crossing that line wasn’t a bad thing.”

 

 

I thought I could hear my heart sinking.
Jeonghan faced me and slowly lifted the tray.

 

 

“Let’s eat together.”

 

 

I couldn't answer and followed him, asking questions he hadn't even asked.

 

 

“That secret… Is it true that no one else knows except you?”

 

Jeonghan nodded.

 

“Yeah. I never said anything. Not to anyone else but you.”

 

 

“…Why did you only tell me?”

 

Jeonghan looked down at me and said.

 

“From then on, I was just a little curious.”

 

 

"…when?"

 

 

“The day you cleaned silently, even though you held the broom upside down.”

 

 

I almost stopped walking.

 

 

“It was so stupid, but strangely enough, it bothered me.”

 

 

Whether that's a compliment, a joke, or just an honest observation.
But strangely enough, it was a word that stayed in my mind.

 

Jeonghan continued speaking.

 

 

“Why do you do everything so indifferently? It’s like you’re the kind of person who accepts everything without saying anything.”

 

 

I couldn't respond. I just held the tray tightly.
Because those words just now sounded strangely warm.

I don't know why I looked like that, but at least someone was watching.

 

 

 

*

After class, I cautiously opened my mouth next to Jeonghan, who was packing his bags.

 

 

“But you…”

 

"huh."

 

“That thing you said back then, ‘Shall I tell you one more thing?’ What was that?”

 

 

Jeonghan took his bag.

 

He turned his head slightly towards me and smiled very briefly.

 

 

“Can’t you say that now?”

 

 

"…why?"

 

“Then it would end too quickly.”

 

 

I was speechless for a moment.
What does that mean, it's over?

 

Jeonghan brushed past my shoulder and said one more thing.

 

 

“But really, is it not okay for you to like me?”

 

 

Heart pounding.

I stood there, unable to move, watching his back as he walked away without making a sound.
