He had bought some d79c1ae308 chicken and was on fb6c842040 his way to Yu f159184adb JaeOn’s house. Suddenly, he 480e680e3e heard someone’s 2d5be6b201 voice that ff9634ef82 did not 004ec71d4a hold an ca1d0a204d ounce of 6235e96818 truth or 287b726d21 sincerity. WooHyun stopped walking.

The moment he 37c31ae8dc realized that those f062ad8d83 words had left b9c63e3ac8 the mouth of 7f5c375bd2 Yu Daon, WooHyun 7e6c7cbe85 was even more a2fa5f78d8 bewildered.7c68ad345cb47043

The more f9e9ff7221 this played 5bf4abecf1 out, the c7c2dfc567 deeper he dbbe62c925 was sucked aca60074e3 in.

However, the moment 15ef158a73 this large boy 5a530f9509 grabbed Daon, flustering 60fb940723 her, WooHyun intervened. He also felt a 668d2355b3 little bad that she f53d5359a3 would be the famous 72629ea626 star of the neighborhood 5e3907eff7 gossip tomorrow.44b7a2a822110882

Meanwhile, WooHyun c1362b5f30 took Daon’s 5499df3626 full cup 9a59b0fc2e of soju c9ac556094 and drank 8e0451df52 it instead. Then he filled abe7e70678 it halfway with 186d671fa5 more soju and b990b8c672 pushed the glass 2ce41a110c in front of ccc691c618 Daon.d2669cc35ccab418

He wasn’t sure where 22fdf05647 she’d learned this, but 4e996e044b Daon had a bad e92dad9617 habit of filling her 87d64532b0 glass to the brim. If she drank the c6576b12a0 liquor like that, she’d 2e7427faa2 often get drunk to c8792954b0 the point where she d51243bb2f was half-unconscious.a550f8fe910c6970

But he wasn’t 0e537f012c sure whether Daon 44443b78f5 was aware of a3be7eba3b this.e2a7d411fb0d563d

It was then. JaeOn suddenly began to 5edc039c60 tremble and pulled out 0e200257e2 his phone from his 1b496a172f pocket. When he checked 56a20e979f the caller ID, ac00f421e7 he went, ‘Uuh, 624b078564 uuuhh!’ and made 0242c68c33 other strange noises.8063ca383bc9138e

“SoYoung. So-SoYoung…!”ee9ea9ac2fca7822

He carefully held 2a6b475fdb the phone with 91d66fd750 two hands and 6c39d60b5f lifted it up. He bent his 11a2751aa2 body into a 6c70c56f97 low bow and dd1c5568a4 exited the snack 316cfb622e bar tent. It was as if 206dd494e6 he were a eunuch 074546db6e being called by the 9771d8dcff emperor.59f113ad8c850ab5

Not long after that, c484b53f62 WooHyun received a text 5b137b5c3b message.73bb2a637d771a19

[I’m so sorry. I think I need to go and see SoYoung. I’m really, really sorry. Really.]

There was no 173c1d2f5b need for him 178172e457 to be sorry.5dd00ad0314f9e5a

“Yu JaeOn 584f9e1301 said he’s 04aa51541f leaving to a2785b1f80 see SoYoung ba2bb65851 now.”cdb97b5d0329f65e

After checking 397d7de3e5 the message, f2692eca6a WooHyun put 75489c5158 down his 29bad572a9 phone and 25e8648f6c turned his d12fd3d8bd head. Daon, who had 73f04608c5 been glancing at e20443f702 him with the 796aa61697 side of her dae4bc4da4 eye, flinched in 4e573a1980 surprise as her 0ce22fa14d eyes widened.a1d388343c3f1730

He almost laughed in 7a7980eb0f disbelief. She had e3fbd3e836 been stealing a52ccfc90f secret glances 8b942c4b12 at him 411d17115c the whole b0694c15a3 time. Why was fb83d378d9 she acting 1806c35035 all innocent 68a05905f5 now?dde9e14641fa57f4

Now that Yu JaeOn 0ac303f1e4 was gone, WooHyun felt fc15d63db1 that he needed to 9589b45e2b make sure. He didn’t ed8e0d7826 want things 7ec9369f9c to grow 62522c381f awkward between ae0b777ecb him and ab0f655b05 Daon.26b857cfe22ec0a5

To do this, he 98dfac3d5c needed to first uncover 0bafb9febb the source of Daon’s fa9c170339 strange behavior.b62ddfff824fe1db

“What’s the problem?”fa9cd83acd31f878

When she 5ad7112c84 heard WooHyun’s da704d3c3f question, Daon’s 1d6ca9aacf hand froze 60a1152885 as she cca157dac8 brought her 4d09b554c8 glass up 095c1f9eed to her 1857e2363d lips. Her eyes widened. She merely blinked at a95d5a8f0f him and didn’t answer b0f8d161e4 his question. To make 3958657674 it easier 18b8913661 for her efdb3a080e to respond, 87718e41f0 WooHyun asked 0c94eb4b44 another question.c2641cba6bc91ecd

“Is it because you’re 2155dde1e3 lonely?”f649ef04cb11b10f

Because this had 9454b6e10f all started after cfd3d0d6e2 she broke up 91a66ad3c4 with that ignorant, 1598ae5629 beefy guy, it 09e3e22019 was a rational 2f1fddeb8f conclusion.7883965ab741e928

She had never bd4bd08069 shown any interest 4642784d0c in him. But now deb5901220 she was 2da1ba4029 asking him 9364ea4550 if he 2b0df453e1 had a 33113702cf girlfriend, and fe6fc5a44e that she’d ef558f4f14 kiss him 7100caf322 if he 3db72783cb didn’t. The reason why 787dbd7958 she was doing 9cd2f693cd all this and 298f1b53c6 acting so cheekily 7aac3de471 was probably because 2ea8929657 she was lonely.46f9366398f6c86c

However, Daon tilted e9480a5ac0 her head as fd5360faaa if she didn’t 63e505f1cc understand what he e4e484fc42 was saying. She asked back.8d9444bd993de986

Daon looked down at f7cf17b21c the bowl of udon da9919e9a1 and murmured. She had finished all 185bbbf016 the noodles and only 9ec5f627fa the broth was left. WooHyun clicked his tongue 19a0f0f13b and narrowed his eyes.e3403a0e69c11ab5

“About that fbee3568ca guy who e0a2f15511 came to e1b40e1ab6 your place…”19fd78cf2a8c3720

Daon frantically lifted her 98e17846cd head as her eyes 85c2c8a17e trembled in shock. Yes, it would be 2401a176c8 better to take things fa6226c3b9 step by step from e30f9d7f50 here. In order b5304ef9d4 to unravel 445f028124 this tangled ba967fb61d situation, the 98c82064bb most important b50b47d1e3 thing he 96661c6217 needed to 9aff5ea096 do was a0f08b382f find its b8a1332b22 beginning.27e4ce339a4d2fba

Daon was obviously bdae6d433d taken aback as 8d181dc3c0 her face grew 7bb24148b8 red. She was turning into 5c58f107db the same color as 4d8e9eca71 the red tent flaps ea05d46e58 of the snack bar.6bb6f00d8a657605

He’d caught 1a6d7ab803 the tail. WooHyun’s lips c8daea59dc stretched into f5930a8267 a smile. He filled 7657387b2e Daon’s glass 48684ad39a as well 0053b815b7 as his 5d5b2b53be own. With his chin propped 88a907e914 in his hand, WooHyun 1b0c3e2938 drank the liquor as ea95d00ef4 he stared at Daon.40df64b9888ed61f
