LA0S | Chapter 12
by RAE“It’s comfortable.”
“Hmm.”
Comfortable, huh… One side of Kim Chayoung’s mouth lifted slightly, and the skin around his eyes wrinkled in a diagonal pattern, revealing dimples that could only be seen up close. The expression, akin to a purring cat, usually meant he was in a good mood. Lee Jinha found it annoying to realize he still remembered all of Kim Chayoung’s habits so well.

“What about club activities?”
“Not interested.”

“So you’re not doing any. Well, we wouldn’t have time with the contest preparation anyway, we need to focus.”
“And yet you’re doing all sorts of things with the student council and other external activities, aren’t you?”

“I just help out occasionally. Shin Youngmin hyung is the class representative.”
Ah, damn Shin Youngmin. If it weren’t for him, Lee Jinha wouldn’t be sitting here eating burgers with Kim Chayoung. He crumpled up the burger wrapper completely.

“The ones who came to our store. The guy with the sports haircut and the girl with long hair…”
“Seungyong sunbae and Yoona are also on the student council.”

Seungyong sunbae and Yoona. The familiarity in his tone when he mentioned their names suggested they were close enough to hang out for drinks. It was none of Lee Jinha’s business who Kim Chayoung was friends with.
“That call earlier was from the student council?”

My mind claims it’s none of my business, but my mouth had other ideas. It’s not a mouth but a beak, a beak.
“Yeah. Yes. There’s a department sports festival coming up. They wanted help with that, but I’m planning to decline.”

“Hey, I heard you had a showdown with Kim Chayoung in front of the library?”

The first thing Lee Jinha heard from Yoon Sejin upon meeting him on the shuttle bus was filled with excitement.
“How do you know about that?”
Support us by visiting our official site at lilyonthevalley.com
It was in front of the library, where there weren’t many people, but he hadn’t expected Yoon Sejin, who usually minded his own business, to have heard. Especially since it had only happened yesterday.
“The original and the new face together draw attention, and then a fight broke out, how could it not spread?”

“Original and new face? What’s that?”
“You and Kim Chayoung. Hanguk University’s guys notorious for being nuisances.”

“I haven’t done anything to be a nuisance. I just go to school quietly.”
“Good-looking bastards are nuisances just by breathing, unlikable. No rebuttal, so just take it as it is.”

Again, Yoon Sejin’s nonsense.
“Anyway, I heard the atmosphere between you two was really tense. Did you end up swearing at each other and throwing punches?”

“Hardly know him, and it wasn’t that tense…”
Swearing and punching were typical exaggerations of rumors. But Kim Chayoung’s demeanor at the library wasn’t great; his usually slight smile was tightly closed, and he had spouted some pretentious nonsense about not tolerating ghosting.

“So you threw the first punch? One punch to the corn. Hook, hook.”
Yoon Sejin mimed throwing punches in the air.

“First punch is a sure win. And it wasn’t two corns, it was three.”
“Exactly like my friend. You know some stuff.”

Eventually, Lee Jinha got caught up in a silly exchange with Yoon Sejin.
As the bus stop passed, the inside of the bus seemed about to burst like a pressure cooker. A bump in the road shook the bus, and a woman standing in front lost her balance while checking her phone with one hand. Lee Jinha supported her back with his bag and naturally took the seat handle she was holding.

“Ah, sorry… thank you.”
The woman murmured softly and firmly grasped the handle Lee Jinha offered. She seemed embarrassed to have almost fallen in such a crowded place.

Now she won’t fall. Lee Jinha turned his attention away from the woman and continued his conversation with Yoon Sejin.
When the shuttle bus stopped at the Natural Sciences campus, the students poured out. The Humanities campus was the last stop, so they had a bit more to go. As soon as they got off the bus, Yoon Sejin poked him in the side.

“Ouch.”
“What now?”

“That thing you did earlier? Total gentleman move.”
Yoon Sejin smirked playfully, his lips twitching. It was a comment that didn’t need a response.

A few days later, Lee Jinha arrived at school as usual. Since his semi-basement room was colder than the school, he tended to arrive early. He planned to spend most of his free time in the school library during the summer to enjoy the free air conditioning.
If he won the contest, he’d indulge in turning on the heating or air conditioning for a day.

He left his bag in the front row of the classroom and went to the restroom. When he returned, there was a coffee in a plastic cup from the convenience store and a post-it note on his desk.
Whose is this? He looked around, but there was no one who seemed to be the owner of the coffee.

“Hello. Thank you for your help the other time. I survived because of you. I’d like to thank you, so please contact me if it’s okay :)”
The yellow post-it had cute, round handwriting and a phone number.

Helped? Me? He tried to recall if he had helped anyone recently, but nothing came to mind.
“It’s totally summer now. The bus was fucking hot.”

Yoon Sejin unzipped his jacket, complaining exaggeratedly. It was just the first week of May; calling it midsummer was a stretch. Sensing the faint annoyance in Lee Jinha’s eyes, Yoon Sejin thrust his sweaty armpit in front of him as if to show how damp he was. It was such a crazy thing to do that Lee Jinha instinctively leaned away.
“Are you insane?”

“Whew. It’s so hot. Can’t they make more shuttle buses? It’s bursting with people. Where does all the tuition go?”
There were indeed too few buses for the number of students. Lee Jinha nodded in agreement with Yoon Sejin’s heated words.

Lee Jinha exchanged brief texts with Kim Chayoung while the professor was looking for some materials.

What does it matter to others if I sit by the window or not? He didn’t reply and just looked out the window. He could see people walking briskly through the clear glass. He glanced at the professor, still rummaging through his materials, and rested his chin on one hand.
Last night, the landlord had come over. He had never brought good news, and this time was no different. The moment he heard that the rent was to increase by 50,000 won starting this month, his heart sank.

Suddenly, and an increase of 50,000 won at once. Although the request was unexpected and unsettling, compared to other rents in the area, it was still reasonable, so he had no grounds to refuse.
“Sorry to bring this up. But you know, Jinha, we’ve been quite accommodating to you. There’s no cheaper place in this area.”

“I appreciate your consideration. Thank you.”
“I’m not trying to make myself look good… Is it possible to start this month?”

He handed over 50,000 won from the money he had set aside for food to the landlord. He took a deep, heavy breath as she left. His carefully planned budget was now thrown off.
I should ask the bar owner for an advance… No, that should be saved for a real emergency. Borrowing small amounts would only harm his credit.

Where could he find a short-term job? With the contest preparation also needing attention, he needed something brief and quick.
After the class, he and Yoon Sejin left the lecture hall. Another message had come from Kim Chayoung in the meantime.

Class over? Let’s go to the library.

The timing was almost psychic. He had given him his schedule, but did he really remember it this accurately? He looked around suspiciously.

“School cafeteria? Or let’s go to the PC room. I have work later tonight.”
Yoon Sejin slapped him on the back, causing him to miss the timing to reply to Kim Chayoung. He figured he could send it once they reached the library since it was only a five-minute walk.

“Neither. I have plans.”
“What plans? You don’t have friends.”

“Yoon Sejin. You really want to experience one punch, three corns up close, huh? I’ll give you a special rate. Want to try it right now?”
Lee Jinha clenched his fist as Yoon Sejin chuckled. It was true he couldn’t deny not having many friends, but they both knew it was a harmless joke, so no feelings were hurt.

“Where’s this ‘appointment’? Wait, this direction is…”
“That’s right.”

“Not that damn library again. Dude, this isn’t an appointment, you’re just secretly studying? That’d be really unlucky.”

While there might be time to study before his evening shift, that wasn’t the goal. Yoon Sejin’s eyes rolled dramatically.
“Then what is it? Don’t tell me a club? Finally got the motivation? It’s a bit late but better late than never for a happy campus life.”

There was a building for club activities right next to the library. Lee Jinha shook his head. Where did he have the time to leisurely join a club?
“Stop it and come to our club. Seriously, it’s fun. The kids have been going crazy telling me to bring you.”
