(man, this girl is a real weirdo..) [everything about her was weird. from the way she talked, to the way she dressed —— even how persistent she was in following yu—me was weird.. and maybe a bit admirable. she was slightly taller than yu—me, too. all lanky and funny looking.. like a ragdoll or a boneless being. too happy, always smiling] don’t stand too close, i’ll burn you up.. [she’d hope that would scare anong enough——just enough to get her point across. that she didn’t want to be followed, and she didn’t want any friends. she was perfectly fine being a loner. a nobody and this weird girl wasn’t going to ruin that for her (___) but.. ] aiishhh.. [ it’s almost comical and dramatic. an abrupt stop caused her sneakers to snap together. swiveling against the cemented gravel on her right heel. At first, Yu—me says nothing. aside from the elevation of her hands , silently ushering Anong to “shoo”.. but then she’s giving up. and she’s thinking.. Kang Yu—me was often lonely. she sat alone at lunch, and she spoke to no one in her free time, either .. and it wasn’t like Anong had any friends, either. in fact, Yu—me vaguely remembers her being picked on——] hey, what do you like to eat, anyway..
