    My head was filled with question marks. Then I heard Hugo’s low voice in my ears.

    Was he bragging……?

    When I widened my eyes slightly at the unexpected appearance, he averted my gaze. Then, as if to change the subject, he pointed to my sneakers.

    He tied my shoelaces at a very slow pace. I squirmed, but I was deeply relieved that he didn’t recognize me.

    Hugo said playfully and began to unlace my other sneakers, which were still tied neatly.

    ‘Hugo used to tie my shoelaces for me back then, too.’

    Even back then, his hands were slender, and now that was grown, it hadn’t changed.

    As I stared at him, reminiscing, Hugo suddenly twisted the corners of his mouth and muttered:

    My reunion with Hugo in a long time, was short.

    He glanced at the map in my hand and asked, “Are you looking for the teacher’s office?” and pointed in the opposite direction I was going.

    Hugo didn’t press further at my refusal. He shrugged his shoulders lightly and started walking in the other direction.
