Wrong Concern | Namra x Onjo | AOUAD

Ch.4 (Pt.3) • Bracelet

(Namra's POV)

"Namra!" A voice called my name.

I turned around and saw Suh-yeok waving at me.

I also though i'm gonna escape peacefully but I didn't.

I saw Onjo turn around with a disappointing face.

I hope she's disappointed because she didn't appear earlier.

"What brings you here?" Suh-yeok asked me.

I just smiled with teary eyes and answered "Well, My friend works here. I just stopped by to hang out with her. But I'm leaving now."

"What? Why don't you join us?" Suh-yeok asked me again.

Onjo looked at him confused.

"We didn't get to talk last time." He added.

I glanced at Onjo who's feeling awkward also but Suh-yeok is convincing so i'll join them for a short minute.

I walked towards them when Onjo offered to sit next to her.

I put down my bag at the chair she offered and sat next to Suh-yeok.

Suh-yeok suddenly starts the conversation "Are you afraid to be seen with her?"

"Ye."

"You can just tell people we're discussing the bus stop." I just nodded at what Suh-yeok said and looked at Onjo across from me.

"Oh, Did you just finish baseball practice?" He asked me again.

"Yes. For the upcoming traditional women's baseball match between Engineering and Architecture."

"So you're competing against Onjo?"

Both of us nodded.

"Wow, Who should I be cheering for between you two?"

Both of us smiled not until Onjo looked at me.

I avoided having eye contact with her and looked around.

"What do you want to eat?" She asked me and handed me the menu book.

I was about to grab it when Suh-yeok noticed something on her hand.

"Hey! Do you still have it?" He asked.

I saw what he's pointing at and saw the bracelet he made for her.

I just looked at her with unexplainable eyes.

"I've had it on since this morning. Why don't you just ask tomorrow?" She answered.

"Wow! I'm thankful. Didn't think you'd still have it."

"It's rare. Only you can make awry bracelets like this."

I spaced out again with this blank expression I have feeling like I do not exist and remembered seeing them together in the school's garden back in high school.

-Flashback-

I was walking downstairs on the school's bridge when I saw two familiar people.

"Woah! Did you make it yourself? Are you sure you didn't buy it yourself?" Onjo asked.

"Of course, Look! It has your initial 'N' on it."

"Right."

"Let's try it on."

After what Suh-yeok said, I was surprised when Onjo let him put the bracelet by himself.
