Chapter 55
Tae-seo kept lifting his phone to his ear and lowering it again, all because of Park Han-soo’s incessant whining. Seriously, just because he hadn’t mentioned taking a leave of absence the last time they ate together, Han-soo was making a huge fuss. It was bad enough that even people walking past flinched at the loud voice blaring from his phone.
If he told this guy he was pregnant, how much worse would it be?
[So, when are we meeting?]
“We just ate together the other day. Why do we need to meet again?”
[If I’d known what kind of meal that was, I obviously wouldn’t have eaten it.]
“You sure seemed to enjoy it at the time. And it’s just one semester. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?”
Tae-seo quickly lowered the volume, bowing his head in apology to the person next to him. Even after turning it down to barely a whisper, Park Han-soo’s shouting still somehow felt loud.
[Isn’t making a fuss normal? Next semester is our last, and if you take a leave of absence, that’s it—we’ll be completely separated.]
“Even if we take the same classes, what difference does it make? We just sit next to each other, that’s all.”
[That’s what’s important! That’s how we talk and get closer!]
“We can still meet up if we just text each other.”
[That means we’d only meet if we actively make the effort.]
