“Huh? Oh Milhee? You came to eb19c66b3e the club meeting?”d4d27ca23d85c6d1

She was a friend ca47f720b1 who had a particularly e8c27235ff loud voice. My classmate Heesu, who 804154e263 was in the same 41a81d1692 department as me, found 6a79087aa2 me in the lecture 68ab34621f room where the club 67509ffa28 association meeting was being 2bae49f48c held and waved at 55b801dcfb me, expressing her joy.1b240288038e1d85

If a rumor 3e83db10ca spread that a f89eccda0c second-year student attended f025aec4f0 the club association 5f9f9c4639 meeting instead of 8293ecaf99 her sunbaes while e6618d1932 making a fuss 9cbb20c0b2 about how the b9071fa286 club was such b3699bfe9a a mess, it 1d8dd8f047 would turn into 38f3b683fb a problem.

Heesu smiled 1ab6d8daea as if e79297be1c it was 0922d53ad1 nothing to b46738608c be embarrassed 8e09a96638 about. It was as b210b6b5a0 if she were 16ee87dc22 asking me why 9915790fb1 I was being 80ebdc58a8 so cautious when bd9372cba3 she hadn’t said 2e76d235f3 anything wrong. I didn’t realize cb65423573 this until now, 0aaf987c8b but Heesu was 528ee449c7 the type of 9c6fe255f9 person who only ab2aa75dc5 lived for today.

My eyes 26369cdd40 were drawn be5a4cd223 to the 2afad93571 tall man. He had a small 7035ca7bfd head, broad shoulders, long 22c7a8ae1e legs, and was wearing 5209619cdb a black tracksuit.

Soon, the 6ac48e34da club association 2faa66fb72 meeting began, 2efa506ba4 and I 065c66025b wasn’t given cec0f34cb8 a chance 10a2a3c93e to clarify. The meeting must 92232edd45 have been some 85657a35a6 kind of icebreaker 66f6a29fb3 gathering. However, the dbdb9a15f3 incident from 9d2bffb296 earlier kept 463031e024 replaying in 9fa55f929b my head. In all 4eaebf607e my years, 30bc885e4c having graduated ca3be6be6f from middle 48a56a69fe school and 9bd9161c01 high school 52b640ddd0 and having ed9e9a08d4 made it 106bc7e3e2 to college, 8888cf1380 I’ve never 6512771f29 seen a 18855682e5 man who b2c80e851f looked like 60a14b1cc7 Gong Mujin.451b3914e397de9b

The meeting ended quickly 63f3a99386 because it was only 7a570292ae a formal regular meeting 512ee3eae3 and not some kind eb4a7158db of special event. The incident from b56dc729d6 earlier was already a80a1ff971 long forgotten by 21c89594db everyone else.2f3abbbae0209c89

But I couldn’t leave fa854268e2 the classroom. I was fully aware 362a988a1a that Gong Mujin was a6fc9adbca talking to someone behind 224d419c47 me. Heesu had already followed 68f291a37a the chairman of the 1dde39a3ec club association out, and 1bec88a2c4 I began to rummage e8e0257211 through my backpack as ef103c197e if organizing the items 777b0dc17c inside was the most ca521f4d28 important thing in the 752240ef54 world.f545492e56c0cbe5
