Chapter Index

    Ugh!

    Ugh!

    Ugh!

    I slowly open my eyes to the regular vibration. A familiar ceiling and a familiar view of the room.

    The fear I felt when I woke up in Seo Ye-rin’s room just moments ago was still clearly etched in my spine, so I reached for my cell phone that was ringing with relief.

    Choi Yi-seo –

    “…….”

    The moment I see the name, my heart sinks. Can I say that it feels like I got caught after doing something I shouldn’t have done?

    First, I swallowed my saliva and carefully moved my finger to answer the phone.

    What, why did you get it so late?

    The moment I heard Choi Yi-seo’s usual voice and speaking style, peace settled in my heart.

    “What time is it?”

    Are you still sleeping? Even on a weekend, it’s a bit harsh.

    “Why are you sprinkling salt on a peaceful weekend?”

    Hey, I was going to ask you to exercise, but you’re not going to do it, right?

    “… … “I worked out hard yesterday.”

    You’re lying. You were at a bar yesterday and just left.

    Really.

    It’s been a while since I worked out and it’s hard.

    But since I can’t say this, I’ll just pass it over without any particular answer.

    Did you have a dinner?

    “Is it time for dinner already?”

    It’s 6 o’clock.

    It’s already 6pm?

    When I took my phone away from my ear and checked, it was indeed already evening time.

    I answered, yawning as I realized I was more tired than I thought.

    “Ugh! Ajidejahohihde.”

    What is he saying now.

    “I still want to sleep more.”

    Well then. Are you coming tomorrow?

    tomorrow?

    “What’s there tomorrow?”

    We decided to have an after-party tomorrow to commemorate the end of the festival. I also posted it as a notice on GwaTalk.

    As I listened to the story, I tilted my head at something mysterious.

    “You drank at our bar on the last day. “Isn’t that enough?”

    That’s something that everyone, including professors and seniors, drank together. This time, we only invited people who worked at the bar, so third-year seniors did not come.

    So, I’m saying don’t worry about people who make you uncomfortable.

    “You drink all day.”

    I sighed and muttered in bewilderment, and surprisingly, Choi Yi-seo also agreed.

    … … Honestly, I don’t want to do it either.

    Actually, Choi Yi-seo didn’t seem to like her drinking parties that much.

    You have to come anyway. This time, there are more people who look favorably on you, so it won’t be a bad thing.

    “It’s really annoying.”

    It seems better to just hang out in the room alone, cracking open a beer and watching Netflix.

    It’s a chance to naturally become friends with the kids. The rumors about you are calming down thanks to this incident, so come and at least show your face.

    “Are you mom?”

    I guess it’s my help.

    “…….”

    …….

    There was silence for a moment.

    I was speechless without realizing it, and it seemed like the other side was probably the same way.

    “If you’re going to be embarrassed, don’t say it.”

    As she said it casually, as if she was joking, Choi Yi-seo’s voice also raised its tone slightly.

    Now, it was a joke!

    Just by looking at him, I can see that his eyes are rolling in embarrassment.

    “Why are you calling me and suddenly committing seppuku?”

    it’s okay! Stop! Just don’t come! The second car will hit your house!

    Pop.

    Choi Yi-seo hung up the phone just like that.

    Her last words were so scary that she felt like she had to go for a moment and just show her face.

    ‘So are we meeting Seo Ye-rin again?’

    Something feels awkward.

    She’s Seo Ye-rin. Earlier, when she was talking on the phone, she pretended like nothing was wrong, but I thought that as time went by, she would be so embarrassed that she wouldn’t be able to speak properly.

    ‘She’s a girl who can’t even say ‘fuck’ in real life.’

    She thought that if she even made eye contact with her, her face would blush and she would avoid it.

    She doesn’t know how many days it will last, but she hopes that she will make sure that people around her don’t look strange.

    ‘I’m tired.’

    Maybe it was because she hadn’t used her body so hard in a long time, but she was really tired.

    She closed her eyes and fell asleep again.

    The next day, Sunday.

    It’s heartbreaking to know that Saturday has been deleted, but if you ask me if there’s anything to do, there’s nothing to answer.

    ‘When I think about it, it sucks.’

    It used to be Geumgong River, but I’m a little angry that I went to school because of the festival.

    There are few things that make college students more angry than going to school for public lectures.

    For reference, I was going to a PC room right now. I didn’t come with anyone else, but it was because I had an appointment.

    “high.”

    “I’m here?”

    To meet Chanwoo Jeong, who works part-time all day on the weekends.

    This morning, I received a call out of the blue asking if I could come to the PC room.

    I was bored and had to go to the after-party anyway, so I didn’t feel reluctant about coming.

    “What do you want to eat?”

    Our Chanwoo even served ramen with great pleasure. Even if I want to hate him, I can’t.

    “Fried udon.”

    “I’ll cook it for you as soon as you settle down.”

    As I sat in the corner and binge-watched a webtoon, Chanwoo brought me food.

    Fried udon, hot bar, and even dumplings.

    “What, I didn’t order this much?”

    “Service, service.”

    “under.”

    From now on, Chan-Woo Jung’s enemies will be regarded as his internal enemies. Chanwoo and I are one, so just say Yoo Ah-rin.

    While eating the ramen I brought, I glance at Chanwoo. Chanwoo, who was sitting next to him, seemed to have something he wanted to say, but he seemed to be wondering how to say it.

    “You went in with Yoo Ah-rin the day before yesterday. “Did it go well?”

    “…….”

    It seemed difficult to speak, so I spoke for him, and Chanwoo laughed out loud because it was awkward.

    While eating ramen, I looked at Chanwoo and he scratched his cheek and finally opened his mouth.

    “I confessed to Arin.”

    “her… … .”

    It was a bolder statement than I thought. Isn’t that kind of talk going around on the internet?

    Usually, confession is not about challenging but confirming.

    But that also applies to ordinary people.

    The hurdles for Woojin to confess are quite high. Because it’s hard to be sure that he likes me.

    But look at Chanwoo’s face.

    If you stop at anyone passing by and ask for their number, 9 times out of 10 they will give it to you.

    To Chanwoo, the confession could be seen as a notification, not a challenge or confirmation.

    He openly tells me to go out with him.

    however.

    “It was a car.”

    ‘Why that bitch?’

    Why do you go to one of the ten and confess? Although it was frustrating, I knew that the human mind does not work as it wants.

    “You worked hard.”

    I put down the cup ramen and pat Chanwoo on the shoulder. But there was still a desire in his eyes.

    “I don’t give up.”

    “…….”

    “I want to do well with Arin. I’m serious.”

    Wouldn’t this be considered obsession? Yoo Ah-rin is almost like a heroine living in a romance novel, right? She’s obsessed with this guy.

    “Woojin, please help me. “I heard you had a girlfriend during her first semester.”

    That’s algebra.

    Even as she sighed, there was something she wanted to check first.

    “Let me ask you one question.”

    “huh?”

    “I heard Yoo Ah-rin confessed to you in high school.”

    Chanwoo’s body flinched and trembled at my words.

    This is what Yoo Ah-rin told me last time, but I guess she didn’t know that I knew.

    “She didn’t like it at the time, but after she confessed, she suddenly looked like a girl. What is this?”

    Otherwise, there is no reason for Chan-woo to reject Yoo Ah-rin’s confession.

    “no.”

    “hmm?”

    But a rather unexpected answer came back.

    “Ever since I was young, I’ve only liked Arin.”

    “Sweet, am I listening correctly?”

    When I pick his ear and ask him to say it again, Chan-Woo Jeong also sweeps his bangs and curls up.

    “You may not believe it, but it’s true. I always liked Arin. “It wasn’t my intention to reject her confession.”

    “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

    “It’s just that I made a mistake.”

    “…….”

    Chanwoo didn’t seem to want to say anything more. He even goes as far as to say that it is a dark history.

    ‘guilty?’

    Although I feel a bit sorry for Chanwoo, who seems to have such a thing.

    I wondered if I could recklessly pretend to help Chan-Woo Jeong here.

    ‘I want to hear Yoo Ah-rin’s side of the story.’

    Even though I am a close friend of Yoo Ah-rin and even share secrets with her, I am starting to feel reluctant about recklessly trying to get closer to Jung Chan-woo.

    “I’m sorry, Chan… … .”

    The moment I was about to refuse.

    Ugh!

    My cell phone rang.

    When I took a quick look, I realized that it was Yoo Ah-rin’s message that had been so well-timed.

    Because it was quite unusual content, she couldn’t help but frown.

    Yoo Ah-rin: Hey! Your photo has been posted to Daesup, saying they are exposing the identity of the manager!

    “what?”

    Although I felt a bit sorry to see Chanwoo in front of me, I got goosebumps and quickly opened the Bamboo Forest app.

    ‘who? Who is it?’

    The ones who know my identity are Seo Ye-rin, anonymous 69, and Lee Eun-woo, an anonymous 90-year-old water dentist.

    And there is none other than Yoo Ah-rin.

    The senior who handed over the bamboo forest manager position has already graduated, so that should be left out of the discussion.

    Anyway, let’s go into the bamboo forest.

    Anonymous 59 (Administrator No. 1): Administrator identity revealed (photo)

    The message revealing his identity was written by Yoo Ah-rin, and a picture of an orangutan was posted there.

    “This shit… … !”

    ↳ Anonymous 11: Somehow, the operation was done in a sloppy manner. The intelligence seemed to be at the level of a monkey.

    ↳ Anonymous 75: Hahaha isn’t this going to get blocked?

    ↳ Anonymous 198: Let’s go straight to the manager’s discipline. Tie your hands and slap your butt!

    ↳ Administrator: From now on, everyone who agrees with this will be banned.

    ↳ Anonymous 54: Everyone shut up!

    ↳ Anonymous 276: Run away!

    ↳ Anonymous69: I want to have sex.

    ↳ Anonymous90: Sex!

    “Whoa.”

    “Woojin, what’s going on?”

    Chanwoo was taken aback when I suddenly took a deep breath. I asked her to wait a moment and then immediately sent a message to Yoo Ah-rin.

    Woojin Kim: You fell behind.

    Infant: Kitchen ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

    Yoo Ah-rin: When you saw the picture, you thought it was really leaked, right? You look similar to when you look in the mirror haha.

    Kim Woo-jin: Are you coming to the after-party today?

    Yoo Ah-rin: I’m going to go and give it to you.

    I think they’re saying that they made Jung Chan-woo go with them on the last day of the festival.

    Kim Woo-jin: I took Chan-woo to the after-party.

    Yoo Ah-rin: ?

    Yoo Ah-rin: You?

    Yoo Ah-rin: Administrator?

    Yoo Ah-rin: Why is she here?

    Yoo Ah-rin: Don’t do it.

    Yoo Ah-rin: Really, don’t do it!

    Yoo Ah-rin: I’m not lining.

    Yoo Ah-rin: I’m not going!

    Yoo Ah-rin: Oh, please!

    Yoo Ah-rin: What a bitch!

    Yoo Ah-rin: Oh my god, I love you so much.
