The kids in my class became more interested in me.

To be precise, he was interested from the beginning, but he misunderstood me as someone who was very cold and didn’t particularly enjoy interacting with others except his current friends.

Of course, I am not that kind of person.

How nice and sociable I am.

… … Huh. Maybe not sociable.

Even when I think about it, from other people’s perspectives, I don’t think such evaluations toward me are entirely wrong.

If you define Seo Yi-jin in 1st grade class C. Isn’t this the guy who is doodling or scribbling in a corner of the classroom, barely saying a word?

Anyway, there are several reasons why such misunderstandings were resolved.

In the end, it is said that the fact that I was seen joking around with Kim Jae-woon a lot was very effective.

It seems that Hong Yeon-seo, Lee Se-ah, and Lee So-yoon, who have many friends, were actively trying to resolve the misunderstanding.

Besides that, there was also the fact that I was hanging around with Lee Se-ah because she was doing vice-team leader duties instead of Yoon Ji-woo.

In addition, wasn’t showing a good performance for the class at the sports day a factor in increasing internal intimacy?

He suffered a grand injury at the end at the end of his career, so he caught everyone’s attention for no reason.

As a result of these many factors overlapping, my position in the class seems to have improved considerably.

Originally, it would have been Student A sitting in the corner seat.

I was a person who didn’t care whether I had many or few friends, as long as they respected my personal time.

Even so, I don’t remember having many friends… .

Anyway, for that reason, I had a very different day from usual.

I never thought that I, and no one else, would experience the experience of classmates flocking to my seat every break.

It didn’t feel too bad, but… Insa’s aura is a bit difficult to bear.

Meanwhile, the most awkward thing was… .

“Did Jin Lee say it was a drawing club? Every day during break time, I see him drawing!”

A, a cute and attractive girl who came by during break time, asked a question with pure curiosity.

Strictly speaking, it’s not a painting club.

“Huh? uh… Uh oh. Well, it’s similar.”

“Wow! Since it’s okay to do some graffiti, can’t we just look around for a bit?”

For a moment, my brain was fully activated and I thought about whether I had drawn something strange in my notebook, and after deciding that it was probably okay, I put my hand into the desk drawer.

“If it’s just graffiti… .”

With trembling hands, I took out the scribbled note from the drawer and handed it to Ms. A, a female student at Insa.

“Where… … … .”

gulp.

I could clearly feel the saliva passing through my throat as I reflexively swallowed it.

An insider female student who is at the top of the class cartel takes the drawing notebook of an awesome otaku boy and looks at it.

Isn’t this a cliché scene that has proven to be too common…? .

Obviously, from now on,

“Wow! You drew it really well~”

Huge contempt… huh?

“… uh. Um, really?”

“Yes! You’re drawing a cartoon picture! It’s amazing.”

“Ah. Thank you?“

“Now! Here.”

As I took the note with a dazed feeling, several other children who were waiting for an opportunity gathered around.

“What is it? I want to see it too~”

… In the end, my scribbled notes, which were revealed to the world, returned to my hands after going halfway around the world, amid unexpected positive reviews.

In the end, the models for some paintings were real people… For example, children who recognized that it was Lee Se-ah asked them to draw it too.

Although it was eventually destroyed by Lee Se-ah and Hong Yeon-seo.

“Woo. They monopolize only themselves~”

“, class is starting now, so go back to your seat.”

“Sea is disgraceful~”

* * *

… Well, something like this happened.

That’s right. It’s amazing.

I knew that this world was a mix of Japanese romantic comedy and Korea, so it was somewhat friendly to this culture, but today was the first time I actually felt it.

It’s not for no reason that my hands were shaking when I handed over the note.

After finishing the day, which was embarrassing because of all the hardships I had to endure, I limped to the club with my crutches.

Everyone said they would go with me, but I declined, saying it was okay to go alone.

Still, Seong Yu-rin helped me along the way.

“… It’s okay to go back a little, but I’ll go further.”

“That’s it. Be late. It’s okay to go. Because it doesn’t really hurt anyway.”

“… … .”

It was Seong Yu-rin, who narrowed her eyes and looked at my legs in silence.

It seems that the memories of that day still haunt her.

“I said I was sorry for that time.”

“… okay. Be careful.”

True. From now on, I will never get hurt again.

After getting hurt once, they see me as too weak.

* * *

“Huh?“

When I almost got to the old building, I saw a familiar figure in front of the old building.

The person on the other side must have spotted me and was rushing towards me.

“Junior~”

“Manager?”

The manager who came next to me took the crutches and casually wrapped them around my shoulders and supported me.

I don’t know why, but it doesn’t seem like something I’ve done once or twice.

Do you often go out for volunteer work?

If you’re a good manager, it’s worth it.

“Did you keep waiting?”

“Yes. I just came too. What did the hospital say?”

“We have to see the progress, but… I think it will get better soon.”

At my words, the manager nudged my waist.

“Because you don’t have to think about us. Just think about your body.“

“Yes.”

That determined expression made me break into a cold sweat.

When we entered the club room, everyone who came first was waiting for us.

I think the speed was slow because I was supported and using crutches.

After receiving greetings and words of encouragement from everyone, we sat down around the table for the meeting.

“First of all, I edited the preliminaries video with existing materials and submitted it yesterday.”

“I’m sorry. I should have gone on Saturday.”

“What. It was easy because there was already enough data.”

by the way… The important thing was not the preliminaries, but whether my legs would be in good shape this weekend when the finals were held.

Even if I don’t expect a complete cure, I want to at least have the cast removed.

It seemed like everyone was only looking into my intentions and whether they knew about it.

I tapped the crutches I had standing next to me and opened my mouth.

“First of all, I’m going to go to the hospital again on Thursday. If it’s okay then, I’ll at least take off the cast and go around.”

“Are you okay? It’s been less than a week since I got hurt… .“

Yu Seol looked worried.

“You weren’t seriously injured to begin with, so you’ll be fine. I did this to speed up recovery.”

… Actually, I didn’t hear anything like that, but that’s just what I said.

Personally, I didn’t want to give up on this festival.

At first, I forced myself to start, and it was difficult while practicing… It’s too bad that we can’t even show the fruits of such efforts.

The members who heard me nodded their heads.

Next, the story about goods began with the words of the vice-president and senior Seongho.

“Thanks to Seol and Jin Lee finishing the illustration work yesterday, we have already placed the order. You’ll probably be able to receive samples and catalogs from the company tomorrow. Based on that, Jooyong plans to post a promotional article on the Internet.“

“Oh… . There seems to be something.”

Yu Seol clapped his fingers.

And, I also agreed with that.

It’s easy to think of him as someone who only watches anime every day, but the vice president was a man with secret abilities.

It seems like you take responsibility for your work.

Actually, this club does a lot of the most work-like work.

The same goes for cosplay costume management, as well as contacting companies this time. This and that.

“Oh, about that.”

Senior Secretary Jooyong, who had been quiet, spoke up.

When everyone’s attention was focused, he took out his laptop, placed it on the desk, and turned it around so that everyone could see it.

“Yesterday, I wrote to the Grandpia community that we were planning to set up a booth based solely on the illustrations the two of you sent.”

“What is it? Have you already written it? When I get the catalog, I’ll upload it.”

“I was going to do that… When I received the illustration, something boiled over me.”

When I looked at my laptop, I saw a post that had quite a lot of responses.

“Oh. It’s getting quite a bit of attention.”

“Jin Lee, are you a bigger guy than I thought?”

“Yes? Me?”

“Take a look at the comments. It’s all about you.”

When I scrolled down the screen and looked at the comments, it really was like that.

As he reflexively glanced at Yoo Seol’s notice, his eyes sparkled and he seemed to be even more amazed.

I wondered if he might have been disappointed because he wasn’t interested in his paintings, but I was glad.

Anyway, was I that bad?

How many official illustrations have been provided to Grandpia, so is the name worthy of being known? want.

“When you see there, people are going crazy asking if you can sign the goods.”

“… Is it an autograph?”

“How about it? If it’s okay with you two… .”

“No!”

At that time, the manager suddenly stood up and said.

As all our eyes turned to him, the manager with his arms crossed spoke firmly.

“Junior, you are not allowed to work until your leg heals!”

“No, but Araya… .”

“Uh-huh! And call me manager!”

“grunt.”

Senior Jooyong, who was trying to say something, was overcome by the manager’s stern attitude.

… … no. that. I appreciate your concern, but what does signing autographs have to do with whether or not my leg heals? Director… .
