Once the weather began to warm up, there was a storm.

People’s clothes became lighter as the days passed.

The students, however, were dressed differently.

Some wore thick hoodies or hooded zip-ups that would still be worn over school uniforms in the winter, while others wandered around in short-sleeved T-shirts worn beneath school uniforms.

Alan was constantly dressed in school uniforms. It was because he was indifferent about the weather.

It seemed a little warm. No, it was a breath. But it wasn’t his breath.

Alan opened his tightly closed eyes. He thought he had fallen asleep for a while.

He rubbed his eyes a few more times before opening them.

Jeff was about to touch Alan’s eyes when he was startled and backed away.

“I want to touch your eyebrows…”

A familiar face appeared.

However, there was no reason for him to be here.

Jeff was seated in the second from the first row.

Alan’s seat was second from the end of the fourth row.

And he shouldn’t have been in front of him because he was doing self-study.

Why would he…

Come to think of it, the classroom was unusually quiet.

Alan cast a sidelong glance around the classroom and then fixed his eyes on Jeff.

Jeff tilted his head slightly.

“It’s lunch break.”

It was strange to see Jeff smiling awkwardly enough to make the corners of his lips tremble, and Alan an looked at him thoughtfully.

Jeff hesitated, biting his lower lip. His tongue protrudes slightly with the teeth before returning to its original position.

He seemed to have something to say, but Alan was curious as to why he was hesitating.

He remembered that he was also like this about a week ago.

Alan moved his stiff neck. There was a creaking sound every time he moved his neck from side to side.

Alan clenched his fists, pressed his lips, and asked.

He tapped his fingernails on the desk and tried his luck.

“Jeff.”

“Yeah…”

“Well, do you want to say something to me?”

It was obviously the same about a week ago. He seemed to have something to say, but he stayed quiet.

It had barely been a week. He often stared at him and turned his head away when their eyes met.

Jeff hurriedly shook his head when Alan asked if he had anything to say first.

That was why a strong denial was referred to as a strong affirmation.

Alan stared at Jeff instead of continuing to talk.

“Study hard…”

Jeff responded slowly and got up.

“Let’s go have lunch.”

As usual, there was something strange. Apan, who was doubtful, raised his eyebrows and frowned.
