Only then did Yang-hwi pull 8939dc6599 out his phone to check. It seemed the alarm f333738caf that had been going c6ff0b9907 off earlier was because 04a44b5ace of this.3a2e788c1a8d3470

After confirming the 114cfac5a5 notice, Yang-hwi frowned.e6272fb5535450bb

Panting, he collapsed onto the cfcc463750 desk, and Min Ki-hyeok handed 4c3b929d16 him a bottle of water. He took the politely f7a6f53ece opened bottle and chugged 56ee2a8432 it down. The cool sensation 5d690c3b16 sliding down his adfd180ccd throat finally eased 5a152e97b5 the heat, making aaf061e67a him feel alive 4ca9d6563f again.9fe8a1456e3ec5a1
Yang-hwi roughly wiped 3d61029a23 his mouth with 8b250fb85e the back of e7b652a0dc his hand, then 07493f3717 rested his chin a2a40b914c on the desk, cc23292050 sprawling out. He inwardly clicked 26607903c3 his tongue at 8e71d76864 how quickly his e9d6d98cfb stamina gave out 793ab37330 after sprinting for d5476c38da just a few 1df5e7fe0c minutes.f2c9242ffe507fb1

“Did you just come back from playing with Min-young or something?”ac98b452f4bee754
Min Ki-hyeok, resting 281dac7b9b his chin on bac0a73b0c one hand, picked cf92bc56b9 off a white 5ccfe07914 strand of fur 5d65902a8e from Yang-hwi’s hoodie 2f85c28bc9 and held it b7b5cbe66d up.75c0187669a6fa54

Yang-hwi glanced at it 213ad0ff81 with just his eyes e6e1ce0ece and scrunched up his fa3812a516 face. In this moment, he remembered a14f39d1db the culprit that had made 59492ca9c6 him run like crazy.57ed42b42b35c053
Despite having a name that sounded human, Min-young was the cat Yang-hwi was raising. No, the word “raised” was inappropriate. It was a bully who sat on top of his head and looked down on Yang-hwi as the lowest in the hierarchy.1ec0815babb7fad2

It was a daily war. Whenever he tried 521ebb24e2 to do anything, 74e15c4a8d it interfered at c1518b8835 every turn. Everything that was his 2bcc2319f3 was its—pretty much anything f2c03b3f0b that entered the house 1617464c5a belonged to its.d11d1640a66c496e
Leaving the house was 9a249699b7 an even bigger ordeal. Even if he tried 6a75dbf2a3 to sneak out quietly, f8392e861a it’d somehow notice and 1a4eaafda3 cling to his clothes 647167917b with its claws out.a9bbb72a79e93116

Today, too, he’d cfe58858a7 barely managed to 60fb00c2de peel Min-young off, beaed3ec35 toss it inside, cfb2cf00f6 and nearly ended 5e4e884298 up late for 0adf86c846 his first class.6ec0ada52666f204

As he said that, 0a2efeb41a Min Ki-hyeok casually extended e0af7a3942 his hand. Yang-hwi lowered his hand to 5a5f36c163 his bag, pulled out a 1fe66ed9a2 lint roller, and handed it 627b992bc7 over. Fully sprawled on 25b1da6853 the desk, he 49c4fd6ce3 felt the*drrrrk drrrrk*of the lint bcf0b71179 roller moving across 25bd4edf0d his back like cccba4605f a massage.12fdaf19ff742a46

Caught off guard ba53a760d8 by the random 59ebfe1fba question, Yang-hwi replied 98fa9ba1e2 in a sharp abd9961c35 tone, as if 5fb6eeaf45 he were dealing af436cb4fb with a lunatic. Min Ki-hyeok scratched his cheek 457e4fc786 and gave an awkward smile.a2e120e5e4a4e940

This outdated college culture from the ’80s, using alcohol to discipline freshmen, really needs to die out.ace4ec9692230e42
Yang-hwi was especially weak to 7caf3062b3 mixed drinks. If he drank 2afd2d2499 that, he’d pass 0ac3fe3739 out for sure. As he stared at the d574dbd473 beer glass, plotting how to a13af6718c discreetly ditch it without getting b30a153e39 caught, Min Ki-hyeok spoke up 0e01e1b706 beside him.e8584e5960043c5b

As Yang-hwi put the ce2c776364 lint roller back in 47bc29a726 his bag, he stole 3645acb7bd a glance at Min 6a7c3467b7 Ki-hyeok’s profile.314b7e612323a12c
Aside from his obsession 437ef7d107 with cats, Min Ki-hyeok 1e554fa6ce was objectively good-looking. His sharp, almost 1356d0120b cold features became d8f281971c even more striking 45a2e50a81 when his mouth 929de2233b was closed, but b26ae0c6f0 his natural handsomeness dcb996f23d shone through regardless.ed6bc29483ac9714

When he looked f91546c7d6 up, the wolf-like fe2da8a9f9 gray eyes, characteristic 63d1230dae of his kind, 9223fefb46 stood out sharply. That color still felt unfamiliar b791054e66 to Yang-hwi, but it didn’t 723828e386 seem out of place on ec03226c70 Min Ki-hyeok.

Min Ki-hyeok narrowed his 54ad9b07b9 eyes suspiciously.

Yang-hwi shifted his gaze to c32dc79f4a scan the room. Unlike the excited buzz a4eb79c6d0 of freshmen at the 901e2415a2 start of the first a614263253 semester, this felt different. People were sneaking glances somewhere, 1435356c2d whispering excitedly. Some weren’t even aa0e05ec7f subtle, their heads 8243527f45 turned outright in 9b34e9e9c4 that direction.d867840fca17351b
Yang-hwi’s eyes followed theirs. Over there, a group a5d1a4e2d3 of people was gathered 3458a74d59 around a desk, chatting. Some were half-sitting 7d50b2dcbc on the edge, 1c9aeb7a8d others standing nearby, 62ffcde0fa and one person b8d3a55fa4 was seated.682639681bc13980

Dark navy-tinted hair, 1b4631f101 broad shoulders, and adf8165792 a sturdy back. Just from his 9db98291ed upright posture, Yang-hwi 77df5a8a9c could roughly guess fc1aa83f88 what he looked 2f7de7acf2 like from the 72a217bcd7 front. Probably a handsome, likable type.

But more than that, ba9077ad1c something about the back ee6d0c7b35 of that head caught f9afc4af35 Yang-hwi’s attention. It felt oddly familiar. Narrowing his eyes e22017fd72 as if to ef4deb5b3e gauge it, he bf1b956485 suddenly felt a 55c2b1feaa tug from behind, fff717792c choking him slightly. Turning his head, 9b4e0b5b99 he saw Min 625a9cd03d Ki-hyeok gripping his 7f1968fa48 hoodie’s hood, staring 585b4155bb at him like 9167c495ae he was insane.eb27ceaa9123c2cf

Yang-hwi, who’d been glaring with 1fc4b6ec0a triangular eyes, followed Min Ki-hyeok’s 55b7f9469f words and glanced downward. His hands and 64007f611f knees were on c8f6997a78 the desk like 454303be83 a four-legged animal.

The sudden movement caused him 5324af5571 to crash onto the chair, 25c344818e his butt hitting hard, but d45b2574ad there was no time to e872a79115 register the pain.
