Chapter 953: Consciousness (1)
After a short outing, I returned to find a change in the dormitory members. As announced earlier, Cheon Dong-ha had left, and another person had taken his place. I had assumed the vacancy would be filled by a member of the student council, but to my surprise, someone else had taken the spot. It was none other than Kim Yu-ri.
“From today, I’ll be joining the dormitory to provide support. I don’t have eyes like Cheon Dong-ha, but I’ll do what I can.”
“I’m relieved that you’re here, Yu-ri.”
Kim Yu-ri had been a staff member who helped prepare for the dormitory as part of the student council. However, she hadn’t shown up at the dormitory itself until now. It seemed that her joining was prompted by Cheon Dong-ha’s departure.
Yu-ri’s appearance was welcomed by everyone, especially by her close friend, An Da-in, but there was one person who seemed particularly awkward.
“Hyo-don, how’s the dorm going? I heard you’ve been studying math. I’ve been thinking about university entrance exams, so I started studying math too. Let’s study together!”
“Oh! ...Oh, right.”
Maeng Hyo-don blinked his eyes wide and stared blankly at Kim Yu-ri before stammering in surprise. It was a usual sight to see him startled by an unfamiliar person approaching, but this time, the person was none other than Kim Yu-ri, who he was somewhat familiar with. Something felt off.
‘Why is Hyo-don so startled?’
He looked like he had seen a ghost, but there was also a sense of relief and joy on his face.
It didn’t seem like he was just startled by Yu-ri’s sudden appearance.
While I was puzzling over this, something very positive happened. An Da-in, taking the lead, spoke up.
