After finishing the meal, we even drank coffee at the cafe.

Kim Woo-jin went to the PC room, and Seo Ye-rin and Choi Yi-seo were still in the cafe, continuing their conversation with each other.

The two people weren’t that close, but neither of them had low friendliness.

In particular, Seo Ye-rin’s unique lively and kind manner of speaking appealed to Choi Yi-seo, who is very thorough when it comes to relationships with people.

“I think Woojin is really amazing.”

Woojin.

Looking at Seo Ye-rin, who is already comfortably calling her, Yi-seo Choi smiles and nods.

“So, I passed up the opportunity to have coffee with you and just went to a PC room.”

“uh? uh? Ah, no, that’s not what I meant… … .”

Despite what she says, Seo Ye-rin also knows about her own popularity and appearance.

Nonetheless, her humility is ingrained in her.

‘The kid is fine.’

Looking at Seo Ye-rin who was at a loss as to what to do with her mouth pressed against her mug, Choi Yi-seo replied that she was joking.

“I just tried it.”

“Okay… … .”

The pouting look of dissatisfaction is also cute. Choi Yi-seo was also confident in herself, but she felt different from Seo Ye-rin.

She herself envied this cozy atmosphere.

“Oh! Lee Seo-ya, can you tell us more about the PT? “What will you do if I go?”

“Are you really interested? Are you trying to barf?”

“bar… … I don’t know much about it. I’m going to try it. “She’s been a little insecure about her body lately.”

hmm?

“She’s not confident?”

What does that mean?

Where it comes out, it comes out, and where it goes in, it goes in. Anyone can see that the body has been well maintained.

It’s actually surprising that she maintains this body without even exercising properly.

“Someone said that. It’s not that good… … .”

“No, who? Isn’t this just something you just said? “Does this make sense?”

Choi Yi-seo is acting like it’s her own business. I don’t like the fact that they carelessly belittled other people’s bodies, but especially when they insulted Seo Ye-rin, they just wanted to curse, but they somehow made up an excuse.

“Haha, just. I just said it in passing. He later said no. “I did it because I was worried for no reason.”

“Ha, there are so many strange people these days.”

Sighing, Yiseo Choi shakes his head.

It was surprising that someone would say something like that to Seo Ye-rin, but I thought that even a child like this would end up getting scolded by someone.

“Just ignore what people say. It’s obviously because I’m jealous. Still, if you really want to get PT, I’ll talk to the trainer. You teach really systematically and well… … .”

They were two people who naturally became close friends.

“Ha, did you make a timetable?” … .”

As if someone had drilled a hole in my chest, the 5-hour lecture on Tuesday finally came to an end.

The 9am lecture ended at 12pm, but there is another lecture scheduled for 5pm.

At the time of registering for the course, she had broken up with her ex-girlfriend Oh Yoon-ji, so even though she was mentally and physically weak, she wanted to quickly go and beat her past self to death.

Although she spent her time playing games in the PC room or tending to her bamboo forest, she hated being tied to school for five hours.

‘I’d rather go to my own room and get some sleep.’

Thinking that would be better, she looks at the sunset and thinks about what to eat for dinner tonight.

On the way home.

There was a river and a well-paved trail, so I saw a lot of people jogging.

‘I should try exercising too.’

Now that I think about it, it’s been a while since I’ve exercised. To say that it is because of bamboo forest management, doesn’t it mean that you only need to exercise for about an hour or two a day?

‘Sseu-eup, since we’re talking about it, why don’t you give it a try?’

I took out my phone and thought about buying some good running shoes first. Doesn’t everything start with equipment?

However, my fingers clicked on the Bamboo Forest app out of habit. I checked it so often that I accidentally pressed it without realizing it.

Most of the posts posted on Bamboo Forest were there.

Anonymous 12: I’m hungry. Some dinner recommendations.

Anonymous 69: I want to have sex!

Several posts have been posted, but since there are not many people participating in the community at this time, there are no separate replies.

Of course, a situation was created in which the men who flocked to the aggressive article joined in on each other.

There is one person who catches my eye more than that.

“You’re back again.”

Anonymous69.

I thought that since the block was lifted, I would definitely have posted it.

It’s ridiculous that he’s sneaking in there pretending to be a man. Aren’t you ready to have dinner or go out drinking with friends at this time?

If you are Seo Ye-rin, I think men will text you every day asking you to drink together.

‘Well, it doesn’t seem like there’s any need to manage it separately.’

Basically, it is a laissez-faire bulletin board.

Even posts like that are just overlooked.

Now I turn on the search bar to buy running shoes again. For a moment before the screen turned on, I glanced ahead and saw a familiar face running towards me.

Instead of the purple hooded zip-up we saw today, Choi Yi-seo is wearing a tight-fitting blue jersey.

Although he had a navy blue short hair that matched his fashion, I wondered why he was wearing sportswear every time we met.

I think I’m jogging with my earphones on.

‘It’s annoying.’

She just pretended not to see and looked back at the screen, and Choi Yi-seo also passed by without bothering to talk to me.

“hey.”

she thought.

She obviously passed by and a few seconds later, she called me. When she slightly turns her head, she puts her hand on her waist and makes a subtle expression.

“Why don’t you say hello?”

“You didn’t do it either.”

Choi Yi-seo takes off her earphones and pouts.

“I knew you would do it.”

“I knew you could do it too.”

Their conversations run parallel to each other.

Whatever it is, it’s true that we didn’t say hello to each other. In the end, she said that it was awkward for Choi Yi-seo to raise her hand.

“hi.”

“Okay, hi.”

“Is the lecture over now? “Looks like there are a lot of lectures today?”

“There are two.”

“You took the 9 o’clock lecture with me.”

“There was another 5 o’clock lecture after that.”

“… … flaw.”

It seemed like she was trying her best to hold back, but I could see the corners of her mouth rising slightly.

“Hey, hey. Envy you. “The public space is spacious, so you can just rest comfortably.”

“Why do you sprinkle salt on painful wounds?”

Is that what you call comfort now?

“Exercise well.”

She sighs and shakes her hand. However, it seems like I saw running shoes floating on the cell phone she was holding.

“Should I buy running shoes?”

Choi Yi-seo quietly asks.

I answered with a frown.

“Don’t you exercise?”

“This was the goal.”

“… … “I’m contemplating whether to live.”

What can she say that she tried to run this far? I just gave a rough answer and she immediately checked the smart watch on her wrist.

“Did you eat?”

It’s out of the blue.

“no… … .”

“Then let’s have dinner together. I can recommend a good place for running shoes. Have you ever exercised in the past?”

“no… … .”

“Then there are good brands for beginners.”

to be honest.

Now it’s gotten to a point where I’m a little suspicious. Choi Yi-seo, whom I saw one step behind, is friendly with those she is close to, but she filters out people rather pickily.

Also, there was no feeling of coldness, but there was something strange about her talking so freely and asking me to have dinner with me, whom I had never spoken to several times.

‘What happened with Yunji last semester?’

‘… … ‘Yoonji is a friend from high school.’

I remember the words I said when I was listening to the lecture today. Although I feel something strange, I am reminded that the favor I am showing is simply because they view me favorably.

‘This makes me a little curious.’

I can’t control my curiosity, and I was curious about Choi Yi-seo’s relationship with Oh Yun-ji.

I held my hand out to her, clenching it into a fist.

“huh?”

To Choi Yi-seo, who had a perplexed expression, I answered angrily.

“Let’s have dinner.” Rock Paper Scissors.”

The moment I realized that deciding on a menu was a game of rock, paper, scissors.

“Whoa.”

Choi Yi-seo’s expression became even more serious.

“The cheese pork cutlet at this place is delicious.”

“shut up.”

Choi Yi-seo, who was sitting across from her and looking at the pork cutlet restaurant menu, glares at me with all of her frustration.

“Ha, all the exercise I did today will be gone.”

“Today won’t be enough.”

“it’s annoying. “I thought you were going to make a real fist this time.”

“I don’t think about that before I pay.”

Yiseo Choi sighs at my answer and looks through her menu. It seems like they were surprised that there was more on the menu than expected.

“There is also a violation. “Why don’t you at least eat that?”

“That would be better.”

It’s fried chicken, but it also comes with lettuce and onions seasoned with soy sauce.

To be honest, I think of it as a bit of a luxurious salad.

“I’ll have to eat the cheese pork cutlet as a set meal.”

Jeyuk for lunch and pork cutlet for dinner.

Today is a very feasting day.

Confident that I can eat like this again tomorrow, I place my order with the clerk and bring water to him.

As with most houses near universities, water and side dishes are usually self-service.

By lowering the price, they gave up some of the service.

As I bring water, Yiseo Choi brings her cell phone to my face.

It was an online shopping mall that listed running shoes.

“Choose from these. “You said you don’t care about the brand, so let’s find out what design you prefer.”

‘You’re more serious than I thought.’

Are you sure you’re not trying to make me your workout mate or something?

I originally heard that kids who work out like to work out with someone else.

I was flipping through the screen with a feeling of wonder.

“Iseo?”

A bewildered voice addressed our table.

I felt like the same thing had happened before. At that time, it was a cafe, and I was with Choi Yi-seo at that time.

“Ahn Hyeon-ho?”

Before we knew it, Ahn Hyun-ho, a professor of English literature, was standing in front of our table.

He was frowning and looking back and forth between me and Choi Yi-seo.

“What are you doing?”

“uh? that is… … .”

Choi Yi-seo, taken aback by Ahn Hyun-ho’s sharp voice, tried to say something, but I interrupted her by holding her chin.

“Let’s eat.”

What would you do here if not eat?

It was Ahn Hyun-ho who was glaring at me, wondering what I didn’t like so much.
