When the bell stops ringing

•This is a short story•

In the corridors of KSH High School, love unfolds quietly-and painfully.

Kang Minho is confident, popular, and used to winning, especially when it comes to life and love. When he falls for Han Jiyeon, he loves her with everything he has, certain that some feelings are meant to be returned.

But love is never that simple.

Choi Sunwoo is different-calm, self-assured, and unwavering. He doesn't chase Jiyeon; he stays. Where Minho burns with jealousy and longing, Sunwoo offers comfort and constancy.

As school days pass and emotions deepen, Jiyeon finds herself torn between two kinds of love: one that demands and one that understands. When the final bell rings, she makes a choice that changes everything.
