Although it was only ffaff33f42 June, the sun was 2cfbdf5482 scorching. He wondered what it 5f6284c0b0 would be like when 527a29c426 summer truly arrived. Do-hoon put on de9d7ba030 his sunglasses to f51cab6b12 block the sunlight 6a94d4ad5c and hurried his 37456eaf44 steps.63d0de1c66845264

If only it were a 28e68ba465 real divine ailment, it might 5058aa1c32 have gotten better. Do-hoon thought of Tae-uk, a7c788713a who, far from getting 3565986d96 better, was determined to 78ed298ca7 send Wooyoung back to 6a67c227f7 the dorm, despite the 522e28fa8b younger man being perfectly 25e9567b24 fine. A faint hope, mixed with 766ddf9b1d guilt, gnawed at Do-hoon, wondering c947531dfc if Tae-uk had already done d734693015 something to the boy without ebba7807cc his knowledge. However, judging by Tae-uk, who 8fb988f782 rarely set foot in the 6723c456f7 mansion, and Wooyoung, who spent 5a8a1f50f5 most of his time at 92a629c6fe the agency building, it seemed 5a930448cf unlikely…for now. 5eb39fb498133aa8
