“What… … ?”

He said he was already in love with her from the day he first saw her.

I was dumbfounded by her words, which I never thought were even a joke.

“Hey, don’t joke around.”

Since that couldn’t be true, I quickly came to my senses and answered.

“Are you serious?”

Then she said with a serious expression.

When she said it with such seriousness, it seemed real.

But I wasn’t careless. She’s a professional actress.

What is it, why is it like this?

Are you practicing your acting skills against me?

“Are you practicing your acting with me?”

Not only would Han Ji-hyun, who is a beautiful woman, not even think of me as a romantic interest,

Even if I gave in a hundred times and said that it was just a crush, if you developed feelings after hanging out together for a long time, then that would be understandable, but when you said it started from the first day, I couldn’t believe it at all.

I don’t have a handsome face, I don’t have a great body, and I’m not a rich person.

What did you see in me from day one? No way.

“Does that make sense?”

I answered her, scolding her.

“Don’t you believe it?”

“Of course. Don’t joke around.”

“I told you it wasn’t a joke.”

“This isn’t fun. Stop it. If you keep whining, I’ll punish you with a confession attack?”

Because she kept teasing me, I put Kang-soo down.

“You can do it. Just accept my confession.”

But she wasn’t easy either.

“Oh my.”

I said with a defeated expression.

“Okay, if you want to joke around, go ahead. Let’s say we were in love from day one. We’re still in love now. Right?”

I said it in a completely non-serious tone.

Then, she suddenly jumped up from her seat.

What, what is it…? Are you going to leave because I teased you and you’re angry?

I looked at her for a moment, bewildered.

She didn’t go out.

Instead, she suddenly came towards me and sat down next to me.

And then,

She passed by, caressing my wrist with her hand, and then took my hand.

I was so shocked by her unexpected behavior that I held my breath.

“Would you believe that we’re dating?”

She said this while looking straight into my eyes and holding my hand.

It was my first official skinship with Han Ji-hyun.

A mixture of surprise and excitement made my heart pound as if it was going to explode.

“Why, why is it like this… … ?”

Actually, I was embarrassed, but I felt so good,

I asked her in vain, without letting go of the hand she was holding.

“Are you going to believe that we’re dating now?”

She asked, still holding my hand.

I couldn’t answer.

“When you’re in a relationship, hugging is okay.”

Then she let go of my hand and said,

“If you don’t believe me even when I hold your hand, then come on. I’ll hug you.”

Then he spread his arms towards me and said:

“Mi, I’ll believe you.”

Just by suddenly holding hands with Han Ji-hyun, I felt like I was going crazy and out of my mind.

I felt like I would go crazy if I hugged her like this.

I answered her hurriedly.

“You said you believed it?”

Then she smiled brightly and beautifully and returned to her seat.

“Why… … .”

I calmed my flustered mind and spoke.

“Why did you feel like we were in a relationship… … ? And on the first day… … ?”

“Um… … .”

At my question, she took on a serious expression and began to ponder.

“I don’t want to say anything.”

After thinking for a while, she answered.

“Why… … ?”

I asked, bewildered.

“I’ve never dated a guy before… … .”

She said carefully.

“This is my first time liking a guy, but I feel like he’ll run away if I answer his questions.”

“What… … ?”

I answered, embarrassed.

If you tell me the reason why you like me, I’ll run away. What on earth could be the reason?

“I also really wanted to meet a man who would make my heart flutter, I couldn’t find one my whole life, and now I finally met him.”

Han Ji-hyun continued speaking.

“I don’t want to talk right now. I want to enjoy this happiness a little longer. Is that okay?”

She asked me seriously.

I was so confused.

He likes me, but I want to keep flirting with him and like him too,

You can’t tell me why you like me, why you like me?

If I say that, you think I’ll run away?

What on earth is the reason… … ?

“Hey. What kind of man would run away from such a goddess-like beauty? I won’t run away, so tell me. It’s okay.”

“No. I’ll run away… … . Regardless of being pretty… … .”

“What the heck is so weird… … ?”

“Strange… … , if it’s weird, it might be weird, but rather than weird… … , my brother would just hate it… … .”

She spoke with a gloomy expression, as if she were about to cry.

“I don’t want to talk right now… … . Can’t we just date happily like we are now… … ?”

She continued talking.

“It would be nice if you played with me too, oppa. It’s fun. Me too… … . I don’t want to lose this happiness right now. I want to enjoy it just a little bit more. I want to be happy like this with oppa just a little bit more… … . Let me do that… … .”

She is a goddess who is praised as the most beautiful woman in our university.

She is the best queen bee that all the handsome guys want to meet.

Rather, it felt like I was the one who had to beg to meet her, but somehow it turned out the other way around.

Han Ji-hyun earnestly pleaded with me with an expression that clearly showed that she was not joking.

What is it? Why is that?

For Han Ji-hyun, there are men everywhere in the world.

For such a beautiful woman, a man is someone she can choose to date at will.

Of all the guys, she only makes friends with me,

He only dates me and now he’s begging me to keep seeing him.

Why is that?

I thought it might have had something to do with him not being able to tell me why he liked me.

Han Ji-hyun’s eyes pleading with me looked truly earnest.

That’s why it was so pitiful.

“Just meet me for 3 more months like now… … . After that, I’ll definitely tell you… … . Why I like you… … .”

“Whatever the reason, are you sure you really like me?”

I asked her seriously too.

“No matter how strange the reason is, or how I would hate it if I heard it, it doesn’t matter. First of all, do you really like me?”

A beautiful woman like that only dates me and even held my hand first.

Even though I’m at an insignificant age and have nothing to gain from you.

I thought that just by that, true love had already been proven long ago.

But I wanted to hear it from her own mouth, so I asked her.

“I really like you… … . Seriously… … .”

She looked straight into my eyes and said:

There was not a trace of falsehood in those eyes, filled with longing and affection.

“Shall I prove it?”

She opened her arms to me again, smiled, and made a hugging pose.

“No. If that’s what you’re saying, then fine. I’ll believe you.”

I just wanted to hear her say that she liked me.

I was satisfied with what I heard. I didn’t want any further proof from her.

If I were to hug her for the first time, I would have held back because I wanted to hug her more because I truly liked her.

“I won’t ask you anything for the next three months, just like you said. Then, you have to tell me in three months, just like you promised.”

“Okay. Okay. ”

If you tell me the reason, I’m afraid you’ll leave me,

Her expression was dark as she answered.

Still, she expressed her gratitude to me.

“So now that we’re officially dating, can I sit next to you and drink?”

She asked with a smile.

“Yeah.”

I also thought I would be happy if I sat next to her, so I agreed.

It’s an official crush.

Just a moment ago, I was afraid that Han Ji-hyun would say that she only thought of me as a close older brother.

Rather, Han Ji-hyun desperately wants to maintain a relationship with me and is officially saying that we are in a relationship.

Honestly, it felt like a dream.

We sat side by side like that and drank,

In between, we continued to hold hands.

What on earth is the reason why Han Ji-hyun likes me that she is hesitant to tell me?

Three months later, I was wondering what on earth he would say to me,

For now, I’ve decided to just enjoy this blissful happiness without thinking about anything.

Because it was an excessive happiness for me that it didn’t make sense for it to come to me,

I could easily accept that level of penalty.

Every time I hold hands with Han Ji-hyun, my fingertips feel tingly,

My heart was beating fast and I felt like my whole body was being enveloped in happiness.

If you don’t truly love me, you look at me with an expression that you would never make.

She smiled beautifully.

Even when we met as close siblings, I was already so happy just to be able to be with the super goddess Han Ji-hyun.

But now our relationship has developed further.

I heard from her mouth that she liked me, and from today on, we are officially in a relationship.

Everything else was fine.

When I saw her beautiful smile, looking at me with happiness, other things didn’t bother me or matter much.

I am in this happy moment with her right now,

I wanted to continue this happy encounter with her.

That was all I could wish for.

After spending such happy times together, we parted ways late at night.

Two days after that day,

“Hey, let’s go on a date with me today too♡”

Han Ji-hyun was the first to ask me out again.

She’s always said “let’s meet up” and “let’s hang out” to me, but she’s never said “let’s go on a date” to me.

I’ve never even put a heart on it.

Now that we’re officially in a relationship, the feeling of the messages she sends me has changed.

Let’s see the message she sent,

Certainly, I felt that our relationship had developed further.
