Story start___.

「...Where were you with Jeonghan?」

『...Courtyard』

「...Why are your eyes swollen」

『...They were itchy』

「Don't lie, look at my eyes and say it again」

『..., 』

「......Why so suddenly..., 」

Seunghceol itched his head, and put both hands and my desk.

「...You like Jeonghan, don't you?」

...Pardon?

『...What, are you saying...?』

「You guys were close since middle school. That's why you were acting weird lately, isn't it? Because you want to avoid me and talk to Jeonghan」

『...Stop』

「Why else would you guys skip together」

『That's not true, 』

「What is? You know what, you don't have to mind me. If you two are in that kind of relationship I won't say anything, why don't you guys just have fun together? I'm just in the way」

『..., Why do you think that?』

「Why are you about to cry, and, what is reason is there other than that? Tell me」

...There's no way I can. There's no way I can say, I like you so I want you to become happy with Jiwoo. Everyone's looking but, Seungcheol won't stop.

「You've been like that since we were younger」

「You carry everything alone and try to solve it on your own and hurt someone, you need to realize that soon」

『, 』

I felt like I was going to throw up... But my brain, analyzes his words calmly. ...I get it, I see now. Seungcheol had thought of me like that, since we were younger.

『...I'm sorry, 』

This odd feeling started rising and, I felt kind of sorry towards Jeonghan for some reason, and my tears easily start overflowing. But still, even I was scared, that the corners of lips would rise. From my mouth, leaked a soulless laugh, and I really, didn't care anymore.

『...That's true, I like Jeonghan, I'm sorry for hurting you. Haven't you had enough now? Of being hurt by me.』

「..., Y/N?」

I laugh towards Seungcheol that looks at me as if he's finally realized what he's said.

『It's a good timing, for you to get away from me. I must have made you endure so much, didn't I? I'm so troublesome and I'm stupid, and even worse I'm being bullied. I'm only have bad images, I'm sorry, that someone like me is your childhood friend.』

...Oh no, 

my words that are mixed with my honest feelings and lies are coming out of me smoothly like a machine.
