haneul wonders the whole day. the words that her friends said kept lingering inside her mind. was it all true? she doesn't believe it. based on her experience with jeongguk, he wasn't like that at all. he may look cold and quiet at first, but when she spent her whole day with him, she felt warmth in her heart.
"did something happened to him..?" haneul talked to herself. walking back to her apartment, she noticed that a figure kept following her. she went right, it went right. she went left, it went left. she took a subway and stopped at the station, it followed.
panic flows through her as she speeds up her steps. her mind kept imagining the worst scenarios of who could that figure be. when she saw her apartment building not far from her, she sighed a relief. turning back her head a bit, she realized that the figure is gone.
"i should bring my pepper spray next time" haneul mumbled as she walked inside her apartment building.
pressing level 25, she hummed a song while waiting for the elevator to arrive. once it opened, she happily walked towards her apartment unit and pressed the password. while she was pressing her password, she noticed the figure standing not far from her.
slowly she glanced at the person and her heart jumped a bit. the person was doing the same thing, pressing his password while slowly glance at haneul. for a second, everything feels like slow motion. haneul got chills when her eyes met his cold ones. his hoodie was down as his fluffy dark brown hair was shown.
"j-jeongguk..? what are you doing here?" she asked. "i'm going home" he simply said.
and just like that he opened his door, went inside, and shut it. haneul just stood there dumbfounded. the mysterious cold boy who left her at their first hang out and was gone for the whole month but she's still attracted to is her neighbor?!
she quickly went inside her apartment and chugged a glass of water. today is a very unexpected day. her brain is still processing that jeongguk is going to the same university as her and now he is the boy next door?
this is too much for her heart to handle. but little did she know, the boy next door was feeling the same, splashing his face with water as he flopped to his bed, with his heart beating loud.
