The library was large and about ten large shelves could be seen there, packed with books. The three teenagers entered those to look for books for sign language. Immediately they went to this section, while Mashiro was already looking through the spines of the books. Their best friend stood behind them with his hands in his pockets, looking around in the air. Kai didn't seem to be that interested in the library. But they wouldn't be in it that long, either, as Beomgyu was already busily pulling a few of the appropriate books from their shelves and looking at them, only to pass them on to Mashiro afterwards. And the girl looked at each of these, leafed through them, and then placed the books on one of the tables.

Some students gathered here and looked for books for research themselves.

It was quiet, but now and then could be heard, some whispering like two girls standing on the other side of the shelf.

"Have you heard," one of them began, drawing her friend's attention by shaking her shoulder. "Onjoo's brother's."

Of course, Beomgyu, Mashiro, and Kai also heard the whispers of the two girls, but tried not to eavesdrop because it was rude. However, it was impossible to overhear the students' conversation because only the bookshelf stood between them, so Beomgyu looked into Mashiro's face, awkward and hesitant as he tried to hand her the last book.

"No, what about Onjoo's brother?" the other girl asked with interest, and even though they tried to whisper, Beomgyu understood every word.

"He came out," the brunette hissed as if she was talking about a crime.

Her friend took a surprised breath and seemed as if she couldn't believe it. Their figures could be seen through the gap in the shelves, but the girls' faces were hidden by the books. Perhaps that was why they hadn't noticed that there were listeners next to them. Beomgyu immediately looked from Mashiro's face to the books on the table and reached for them. As he did so, he tried hard to smile and whispered silently that he would carry the stack for her.

"Thank you!" she said kindly, but took some from the pile. Meanwhile, the two girls continued to talk.

"He's never going to come out at school, is he?" one of them asked quietly, and the other shook her head in agreement.
