Something had changed after he spend time with Jeff. It was the fact that no one troubled him anymore.

Before dating Jeff, he would go to school to visit him and Jeff had no idea why Alan had to be there.

His classmates openly expressed their dissatisfaction, and the teachers regarded him as if he were a nuisance.

As a result, he no longer wanted to come to school. When he spent time with the guys next to him, it contributed to the dreary atmosphere in the classroom.

But, perhaps because Jeff, who gets along with everyone, was by his side, the people who joined the class this time didn’t seem uncomfortable with him.

Like now.

“Alan, don’t you have a girlfriend?”

Jealous means jealous, Zealous means zealous.

Alan, who was writing the incorrectly memorized English words on the back of the back paper with a single difference in the first letter, raised his head.

The pencil on the middle finger was pushed and then loosened with the same hand’s thumb.

It was the guy in the front seat. His name was Way.

He simply had a quiet personality. He slept a lot, but honestly, he slept all the time.

Alan touched his molars with his tongue and nodded.

Not a girlfriend.

“I have a lover. Why.”

The man staring at his phone flipped the screen to Alan.

It was an SNS commercial announcing that the cherry blossom festival would begin tomorrow.

There were also crude introduction writings stating who attended as invited singers, when a night market was held, and how many people came each year, although they were difficult to see.

The man who showed him the phone screen asked, turning the screen back toward him.
“Are you going to the Cherry Blossom Festival?”

“My lover hates things like that.”

Jeff was particularly nervous in crowded areas.

It was always like that when they went to the movies or went out to downtown.

Jeff would walk away when they met the people Alan knew and stand behind him, or turn his head to pretend he wasn’t with him.

He disliked seeing him in that way, so he walked to Jeff, dismissing the guys who had urged him to play with them.

Alan replied sarcastically.

But another response came from the other side.

“…I think that person will like it?”

Alan shifted his gaze to the side from which the voice had come.

Jeff, who had taken a step forward as if approaching him, said another word, which astonished him even more, and his eyes widened.

“… I think that person will like it, maybe.”

No matter what he said, Alan could only stare at him.

The guy sitting in front leaned forward.

“Jeff, do you know Alan’s lover?”

“I know he is dating someone…”

It was funny for both him and Jeff, who did not confirm it was a girlfriend.

Alan smiled slightly as he stared at him.
