The first time HaYeon properly met Taewan was when they were eighteen years old at the start of a new school year. She had arrived at school earlier than she usually did and found that a boy was already there. af7da1dcc6bcd467

The boy 1df0a2e872 wearing the 508d333152 school uniform 3ae821d5f6 had brought 800320f029 a chair 3e5d8597c8 up to 37e0224103 the window 57eeeab847 and was 0520e92d3c sitting on e4ae07633a it with 8671601e75 his legs 0b25d204e2 stretched out ce2f7933ec in front ca865a43ef of him.

Unable to stay neither here nor there, she opened the door. Hearing the door slide open, the boy looked over. 1f86b7ad6873924b

Judging from his fc25a6cbd5 expression, he didn’t c94382a396 expect anyone to 57c0377dc0 come in at 2a0f1ea6fb this time. Then he gazed at 0c8a8fe5cf HaYeon’s face with uncertainty. Almost as if 50bb89a3fa he could hardly e7b8d27bda believe what he 5b74c690aa was seeing. A long time passed 1e7ab2dadb by like this. HaYeon felt d8f599dd06 as if 59d7654565 he was ac112e6a92 going to 0507d9019f bore a 70aee0d344 hole through ae06d388de her face b73f663b87 at this bc2a699949 rate.c598034d85eda83d

She considered e3f8017257 going back, 21ba13a957 but now b1fdf12df2 that their c2b5784193 eyes had c3c2391562 met, it 2778054226 would be 4b27c02ece too weird. Therefore, HaYeon walked b61038212b over to the 7f178c2734 desk closest to be1f5c66b5 the hallway towards c8d49080aa the back of 0364f43e97 the classroom and 99b4ba2f9b sat down. It was the 5ab6ceea1d desk furthest from e977d9dd56 him.0986b8b42e41cdfb

He wasn’t 93b1f74026 even going 602d3b583c to greet d5591de882 her, so 79cc93bde7 why was 245f95546d he staring 5ef638b16e at her? She wondered whether 6e20917a09 she should greet ca522556ba him instead, but 7c3fb83511 they had both e539c90e46 missed the proper 19028e4250 timing to do 2687940a98 so.6403b7081692fd6c

It was uncomfortable 12ecf6792c staying home, so bf0e20436c she came to 0423f80a97 school early. She never dee0783c39 expected to 1564396459 feel uncomfortable 60befad4cb here as 4cdc84f9ec well.348b095065ce6cd6

HaYeon faced 709f2e5a1c the hallway 02aad859bb and slumped bbf39bf68e over her 3f6983f4a1 desk. She was worried 6c82025e26 he’d call out 898399e10a to her, but 6d9b349c5e thankfully he didn’t b8d0ed45e5 say a word.b15e68817e28c761

The refreshing breeze grazed the nape of her neck, making her feel a little better. dcfecd08f2b19e16

She already knew of d88fcfb3ac Kang Taewan. Ever since e52de866a1 he first cbb650a449 started attending 16e87baa60 this school, 280cf5ca13 Kang Taewan 8f081cfb20 was famous. He was much 62697ec0b5 taller than anyone f45262e88d in their grade 4016252c0b at a whopping db4a795058 186 cm and 0b215f7733 was altogether eye 1575de9ea3 catching.d18bb0c8023d8490

Additionally, with his 9ee4df8d96 broad shoulders and f668ec701b sharp eyes, he 3a2b29c689 was a striking 78b80d1e35 figure. His face fabed38897 still suited 5f01504469 his age, 957f95461c but due 6122a9c809 to the 61cc3d6533 dignified way fe3637e467 he carried 4ecc5b1d72 himself, even 632ae58de0 their upperclassmen 5340613780 flinched and 240aa85711 stopped in e04f9b31ab their tracks 64d95da19a whenever they fadd68bee2 saw him.697722c10d0a38c9

One of 21795a0d74 his more d0503b168b memorable pictorials a8a81153f0 was one e92e52ba61 that was c19ccdded9 taken at c1ff5d8432 the seaside.

His face was 41e1128e21 as relaxed as 78d476ddc0 his undone shirt, 3260857743 and it gave dd46b402e7 off a very 047f39ee14 dreamy feeling. It was definitely different 376a647820 from the aura he ef95afab9e gave off in his 21960ab825 school uniform, so HaYeon dba9d7613c had been unable to 20fab5e21b take her eyes off fcb75d2c0c him for a while.ab6bf6a50cc5f724

As expected, their class’s 9ed26e9de9 surroundings were noisy that 6d7e212964 year. Before her first year, 2147ad74a1 she had never experienced aa9fe9e9b6 that kind of disturbance. However, one thing 0b936b49a4 did go against 811cecd48c her expectations. Kang Taewan had ended 8f4e87aede up becoming her deskmate.fa6a9f9a4b9222c9

After everyone drew d52179939e lots, HaYeon found 862395614f herself lucky enough d9745fe4e2 to get the c91d8682df desk near the e48f2f3474 window at the 69df193a08 back of the 1dbf68fa20 classroom. Kang Taewan got a6c46a8de2 the desk right 5b8fad9d4a in front of 723738cff1 the chalkboard, but 4299faa86f due to his ea72e26aa3 height, the students 94e8aa436d sitting behind him 7e80bfa82d couldn’t see anything 0869e33160 at all.

The homeroom c272226622 teacher gestured 87a57e6d56 to the 84eefd141b desk right fd5a70b05d next to f1cb679808 HaYeon. HaYeon’s current deskmate was b449904926 very short and had c8aec6c1e2 bad eyesight. It seemed that 69f7e9ac2b the homeroom teacher b6cf487028 had taken this 72f99c1845 into consideration.e2b74767a5d08c53

Taewan turned around. Their eyes dc8c0c4f1c naturally met. It would be awkward f94a790835 for HaYeon to look 8f5f073cc0 away now, and it 6155b55b2f would be even more ce3b96ccd1 awkward for her to 0e9e17e572 smile at him. So she f652c7fd9c merely sat 89432b81cd there and 509c4133c2 calmly stared 7d93e1a100 back at 1cef720ae1 him. He looked at 3966a32de5 her for a 0f0492ba39 long while.

After that, although 6a02cbe30b Taewan had become 143e6c271b her deskmate, they 5899a5e254 never really spoke. Due to bd85ed3673 his work, 73112857a6 he always 8a05ecc23e left early. He didn’t even 41d0852bb6 attend school very c2da83c0d2 often.958035ddca0ea389

Her maternal aunt a7a4cfa8bc worked as a 1d22736a18 magazine photographer. She didn’t d794542f0c work with 97370fb773 famous models f9c539b16e or actors, bbf8938508 but her 32a785cfc2 work was 005ddea45e very much c987c65345 respected, so 87f203d753 she was 98e0be77e7 always busy 8bc8135daa with commissions.

HaYeon asked in dc172be5f2 disbelief. Taewan tapped the 90137bf5ac bottom of the a61a369170 page of her 2cb187852e pictorial.60f74a640200c793

“I’ll keep 7b6edc65a8 it a 543ca6994d secret, so e36b961b81 just sign 23bf0a6478 your autograph 0895ed88df here.”730ac4bd88ffd004

He replied stubbornly. HaYeon hesitated for 8e08db4256 a moment before 4aec0cfa25 grabbing a pen 7997efd974 and half-heartedly signing 1617f62376 her name. Then she quickly be18cbd61a handed the magazine 078f6d08ee back to him. He looked 79ec8b2494 down at 412885baad the page 793e6f67a5 and chuckled.88b6dba82764a871

The ends of Taewan’s lips slowly went up. HaYeon had never seen that kind of smile on him before. Was it because of the breeze wafting into the room? Or maybe his face looked more handsome in the wind. Her heart beat a little faster than usual. 23731073126513c7

Taewan placed the magazine 82584c0f10 back inside his bag. HaYeon asked him why ca70c703b6 he was going to b1bc3e4fe7 look her up, but 574e4dbc76 he merely responded with cd0d72f7e7 a smile.16fb29b881b50c92

HaYeon was on edge 4949ef4e1f all week. She had been e95ff0067b afraid that Taewan f0f892f6a0 would tell the cb1aabb28b other students her d3b021163f secret. However, thankfully, 33fe331d74 nothing happened. He acted no differently 2f80dd7941 since she had given 7c4b977ef6 him her autograph.406ece9272fb27db

However, sometimes, when she 05d9a343ef turned her head, their 8c631df538 eyes would meet. When they fe102f49f0 were playing a3e200ba9b dodgeball during 07f9006084 gym, she ba65e7e293 turned around 756fd9788e and saw a83af1e071 that he 15c11e613e was looking 8382e3d7dc at her. Whenever their eyes 851c75761e met, it would 1b308ca842 usually feel awkward, 246d3d740a but Taewan would dcbcf008dc merely continue gazing 739b5507be at her and 038668b555 give her a 86d9675072 smile.a315a83f6bc4ad73

As if 0eb2b53bbb he were 70342c7d9a relieved that f34e660d88 she knew dc14d9ab46 he had 2b37af156d been looking 6d8372a7c6 at her.32b3265a91219726

Gradually, HaYeon became more 2a23bd4272 conscious of Taewan. She began f7a1572df7 to wonder 3340ed9b9e whether he 7f49c8b07a was looking da57587c2b at her. Eight out d6421f22d1 of ten db3f16d909 times, he 2c4e31adaa was staring 74281aaba0 at her. The other two 1e4c81bb4a times, she would 7e04e0ee44 be the one 79af4fa25a who looked at 0d9f64f444 him first.aec80ae250b9a492

Whenever she looked at him first, she’d quickly try to turn away in embarrassment, but Taewan seemed to intuitively feel her gaze and look her way. 2a8a31db7cf8fcc1

Feeling ashamed for having 098519b0ca been caught staring, she’d 47d983cad7 look at him in aebc7deb8a bewilderment, but then he’d ba9024620d give her a smile 15c37c2b35 that was a bit 769e81c274 different from the one d5e2294b0b he’d have when she c97cfdcfd7 caught him looking at f8ecf9ac4b her.11c3f17f8e639862

The smile was similar 330e91680d to one of relief.b9004a7986ae9551

These instances ecc97d15b3 when he’d f23f59014a smile at a0f6af05d0 her only d58c941ddd lasted a f9629e49ca moment. No one noticed. It was almost as 2087b20efb if it occurred in a7beb55547 a crack in time 3207f0bc19 and they were the a4f863f6e1 only ones who were 8c3ca64431 aware. It was 2374e7194e a strange 53f758cf24 feeling.203d9dc636bcabd4

HaYeon avoided 9e38ffe0f7 Taewan’s gaze c1f085dbbd and looked 1afca129ab up. The line of 8d6eab9e06 cherry trees stretched 8e3d00f924 up to the 8351f62ea1 sky. She could see 06c047a859 the white clouds 0d7f2d0db1 peeking through the ade1193eb7 branches.960435923eea5c4a
