“Huh? Oh Milhee? You came a1a4468c2f to the 3b6a4f7c76 club meeting?”0793f7333db0d885

She was a friend 3794675346 who had a particularly 12a1ffe012 loud voice. My classmate Heesu, who 398643fdc4 was in the same d63cb2e054 department as me, found d9293702cf me in the lecture 478aae4274 room where the club 838fc7cb95 association meeting was being 28756c11d1 held and waved at 439e351faa me, expressing her joy.94b9e2907542aeed

If a 2939cd0612 rumor spread d58e783e1d that a 68740eb8b8 second-year student 5da896ed0c attended the 4b0673dbcc club association 96dfaed758 meeting instead 0ceb67b7be of her 146d65c372 sunbaes while de9ad8e62a making a 0669655a07 fuss about d3937161d7 how the fef9254607 club was fe23523853 such a 21dcaf45cb mess, it 093a0740b2 would turn 26935e3cc9 into a a25795df47 problem.

“We’re like that, 824739ac20 too. I came in caa49735b7 place of my b56fa92ccc sunbaes.”9d555ce37a21e009

Heesu smiled as bc8f52823b if it was 8112f30230 nothing to be 5bf1a322a2 embarrassed about. It was cfe86eb44c as if 7419fe87de she were 2e318752f2 asking me 5d26e02085 why I 164eff77aa was being d21a0cc073 so cautious 23d0d94257 when she 030c10d623 hadn’t said 93bd8ec337 anything wrong. I didn’t 6f4e866bd1 realize this d701951cf5 until now, 84827daf96 but Heesu 87257e2aa7 was the 786965ec3b type of 4e6e44d97f person who 7ef444224f only lived 15cc54d385 for today.

“He’s handsome, right? I think he’s also 3bb48548cd very popular.

The chairman 868d95cb8b of the fe54b124af club association 32760c94c7 saw Heesu a3052e9905 acting like 2908b2421c this and c4bcc55d44 shook his 2406517327 head. However, a strange 042fa91f9a look was exchanged 6cf79c6e51 between the chairman b33aa55e5e and Heesu.6f42775e51b41e76

“Yeah, we all 82b4dcfcd6 know that Gong 26c78afa3a Mujin is handsome. As for whether 63b24f9d8d he never had d1a556706a a girlfriend, I’m daac6341bf not sure about 20b9f5c3db that.

The eyes of eighty 812e6c2d46 or so club representatives 832015ada6 in the lecture room 836c8baff6 all focused on me.

Soon, the club association 7e28237447 meeting began, and I 1fba9ca3ab wasn’t given a chance 8da14e618d to clarify. The meeting b5277eaaa6 must have 5a4f323310 been some 0281035d02 kind of 959bd781d8 icebreaker gathering. However, the 22660f8280 incident from 57b353f3ac earlier kept e6b61db3ad replaying in fca4753704 my head. In all my years, a64cb077b1 having graduated from middle 9e5c6cf99b school and high school 90e215ca1c and having made it a261b57f63 to college, I’ve never fe11d8c9b7 seen a man who 259d0e72e5 looked like Gong Mujin.69ea624aeabe6a7f

But I couldn’t leave 5ada46d7d2 the classroom. I was fully f4b4ca3370 aware that Gong 9a7a960559 Mujin was talking 3517b5705b to someone behind 694452adc7 me. Heesu had already eeeb9ad3bc followed the chairman afbf58af2b of the club e81b4762a0 association out, and 9b24f5b21c I began to 86cc95d724 rummage through my a546e329f3 backpack as if 69d3a85d83 organizing the items 7b3208cf45 inside was the 2ff88c7ddf most important thing 5c0cbcf6ea in the world.641ff3790215544c
