Chapter Index

    “It’s getting dark now.”

    “Okay… Let’s go back for one last ride.”

    Although it was indoors, the ceiling was transparent so you could see the conditions outside.

    “At the end.. of course, that’s it.”

    I pointed to a spinning carousel with lights surrounding it.

    Jeong Ye-rin and Kim Ha-ram also ended their date with a carousel, so it was an appropriate choice.

    “Carousel…? I think it would be better to ride the roller coaster one more time…”

    “Once you ride it, it will be fun.”

    “Really? If so, well… let’s go.”

    She tried to use the magic pass.

    “Ah, sister. This time, let’s stand in line and get on.”

    “Why?”

    “I just… want to do that. It’s romantic to wait in line for something like this.”

    “Okay.”

    Actually, I said that to match the timing with Jeong Ye-rin and Kim Ha-ram, but she looked good.

    I was able to rest my head for a while just looking at her, who I liked just for being with me.

    A few more people stood behind us, and Kim Ha-ram and Jeong Ye-rin arrived.

    Without even holding hands, let alone crossing arms.

    Although they were smiling and talking, it looked as if they would break apart at any moment.

    Her eyes met mine, and I turned my gaze to Lim Chae-won without taking any action.

    “Oh, now it’s your turn.”

    Looking at her, he smiled the same smile he gave Jeong Ye-eun.

    The smile that Jeong Ye-rin envied, full of various positive emotions.

    When our turn came, the staff member opened the door.

    Lim Chae-won first grabbed one of the horses and mounted it.

    Then, I asked the staff.

    “..Can two people ride in one?”

    “Yes? Who are you with?”

    “Hey, the one with short hair…”

    “Ah… are you a couple?”

    “Yes, I want to ride with you.”

    “Originally it wouldn’t work… If it were that person, I don’t think it would break and I think I could ride it.”

    Even if Lim Chae-won and I ride in one together, it would weigh about as much as one very heavy person.

    Since it was her and no one else, I asked her and luckily I got permission.

    If this happens… it will be easier to build up.

    “Sister.”

    “Huh?”

    I got on her back and held her close.

    When I held the pillar of the wooden horse as if wrapping my arms around her, it created a position as if she was being hugged by me.

    “Dohyun?”

    “They say you can take one. Why do I hate you?”

    “Well, that’s not it..”

    “Then just get on.”

    Her body stiffened in his arms.

    Her hands seemed to be tense as she held the iron bar, and her hands were seen turning white.

    Her back touched my chest and stomach, just like on the subway.

    The scent I smelled on the subway wafted through me once again.

    Her breathing becoming rougher in real time, her ears heating up.

    Every action was cute.

    “How about it, it’s better than a roller coaster?”

    “Uh, uhm… I see.”

    He took one hand off the iron bar he was holding on to with both hands and wrapped it around her waist.

    Hehe, she was startled and made a strange sound.

    However, they didn’t bother to ask me why.

    I could feel my thin waist and strong abs.

    The sight of her coming into Han Ah-reum and not expressing any reluctance could not have been more endearing.

    **

    Meanwhile, Jeong Ye-rin was looking at Choi Do-hyeon and Lim Chae-won behind them.

    Kim Haram was riding another horse right next to her.

    Jeong Ye-rin did not even glance at Kim Ha-ram and followed Choi Do-hyun’s back.

    Occasionally, the back of Lim Chae-won’s head could be seen looking over her shoulder.

    Her legs moving cheerfully back and forth revealed her happiness.

    ‘…i envy you.’

    It was a thought that passed through her mind.

    I’ve had a few skinships, but I’ve never been hugged like that.

    The feeling of security that will protect you from any threat, or the happiness of a warm hug.

    I wonder if he feels those things.

    “…sigh.”

    She sighed involuntarily.

    I wanted to be in Kim Haram’s arms, not next to him.

    I envied Lim Chae-won, who was hugged by him, and Ye-eun, who was able to express her feelings for him comfortably.

    The carousel went up and down, but her mood only went down.

    .

    .

    .

    After the carousel ride was completed.

    Jeong Ye-rin watched for a long time as Choi Do-hyeon and Lim Chae-won left, smiling happily.

    -Let’s go back now, Dohyeon!

    Her smiling face while saying that looked so bright.

    ‘I’m happy. I enjoy being with this person.’ If I personify the sentence, it seemed like she would appear as she is now.

    “Hey, Yerin?”

    The two became somewhat awkward after the collision earlier.

    “..Why?”

    When I looked at Choi Do-hyun and Lim Chae-won’s happy faces, I felt annoyed for no reason.

    If Kim Haram hadn’t gotten angry there, if they hadn’t fought.

    ‘Because of him…!’

    I didn’t even know how we could go together.

    On the way back, Yerin Jeong began to express what had accumulated in her.

    “Why were you so angry earlier? They said there was no solid evidence.”

    A mix of frustration and anger welled up.

    The root cause was jealousy, but she didn’t turn her eyes to that.

    “No, of course I…”

    “Of course? What is normal? Are you close with him?”

    The words Lim Chae-won said flowed out of Jeong Ye-rin’s mouth.

    “Yerin, why suddenly – ”

    “You, apologize to Dohyun again later. I let him go because he was nice. If it were me, I wouldn’t have stayed that way.”

    The cold words that had never existed before stuck in his heart.

    “..Ha. Yerin Jeong, why are you like this? Huh?”

    And, Kim Ha-ram, who was not going to fight just for today, also started to fight back.

    The feelings that have been building up for Choi Do-hyun all this time.

    As she continued to defend Choi Do-hyun, the doubts and frustrations piled up on her.

    They started pouring out.

    Emotions exploded and clashed with each other.

    In the end, the ending…

    “Do not contact me for a while.”

    It was an incredibly cold sentence.

    “Hey! Yerin Jeong!”

    Ignoring the cries coming from behind her, she walked home.

    After returning home.

    She didn’t keep a diary.

    It was not uncommon for the pages in the diary to remain unfilled even after meeting Kim Haram.

    She called Choi Do-hyeon, who had been on her mind the entire time.

    Suddenly, the phone rang, but the voice I was waiting for did not come through.

    ‘Are you still with him…?’

    Quite late evening or early night.

    The thought of those two walking around laughing until now made me feel depressed.

    She put her phone right next to her and started reading a book.

    Unlike usual, I didn’t read it well.

    My eyes kept going to my phone.

    Even though I turned on the sound, I turned on the screen in case I received a call.

    It feels like all my actions are tailored to him.

    She didn’t try to shake that feeling.

    About an hour later, I received a call from him.

    “Keuhum, hm.”

    Although she was full of desire to receive it right away, she still chose her voice.

    “Hello?”

    -Did you call me?

    “Ah, yes. It’s okay, right?”

    -What is it, because of work from earlier? are you okay. My senior also comforted me in his own way, and Chaewon helped me a lot.

    Also, I felt a difference in titles.

    “I’m just sorry…”

    -I said it’s okay… Ah, then do you want to go shopping with me tomorrow?

    “Shopping?”

    -Yes, shopping for clothes. There are some clothes that I think would be pretty to wear. If you wear the clothes I want you to wear tomorrow without saying anything, I’ll pretend it never happened.

    “..What are you going to dress me in?”

    – Well, a tennis skirt?

    “After all, it’s a skirt?”

    -I think I’ve told you this a hundred times, but you’ve never worn it. In times like this, I should wear it.

    Now his usual self has returned.

    I didn’t like the fact that it was most likely not due to her own actions…

    Still, it was good to see him regaining his strength.

    “Okay.”

    -Really?

    “This is only this time… I won’t wear clothes like that again…”

    -Oh, I’m talking about buying three or more clothes.

    “You even want to commit fraud..?”

    -Once you try them on, you should buy some. I’m going shopping to buy clothes.

    “Even if you buy it, you won’t wear it?”

    -You don’t know that.

    Strictly speaking, she herself had not done anything wrong to him.

    However, Jeong Ye-rin had no intention of breaking the current mood by pointing out the facts one by one.

    If things continue like this, isn’t it true that I’ll be seeing him alone tomorrow?

    I had a clear picture in my head of the clothes I wanted him to wear… but I could tolerate that.

    …It could have been an opportunity to find out his tastes.

    Maybe, I could surpass Lim Chae-won.

    And, the next day.

    She was blaming her past self for thinking she could handle this much.

    “Ugh… I don’t think this is real… Isn’t it too short…?”

    With a bright red face, she twisted her body and forcibly pulled down the hem of her skirt.

    Her knees were tightly together, and her hands were held together in the middle, holding onto her skirt.

    If even the slightest wind blew, it seemed like the hem of her skirt would fly upward.

    There was no way the skirt would stretch even if I pulled it with my hands, but I wanted to cover up this shame even just a little bit.

    Choi Do-hyeon was looking at her with satisfaction.
