Chapter 80 – Reversal: Lovers
As time passed, I got used to my new part-time job along with college life.
Today, as usual, I was listening to a lecture when I heard a sound like a bolt from the blue from the professor.
That’s right.
“All you have to do is form a group of four and complete the assignment I gave you by this time next week. Thank you for your hard work.”
Group task.
I was an outcast in high school and was unable to participate in group activities or homework.
Even if the teacher forces it, all the kids except me submit it. I was not given any role and was busy riding the bus.
To some, it may seem like a better situation than anything else, but for me, who cannot accept this situation so warmly, I couldn’t help but feel sadder and more distressed than anything else.
But I have to do it again when I enter college.
Of course, there was no way something like that would happen again like in high school.
Even if it exists, it is so rare that it is as if it does not exist.
The problem was that since I had no experience, I didn’t know what to do, so I felt like I was just a burden.
“Seo. If there’s no one else to do it, would you like to join us? There’s only one person left.”
She still doesn’t seem to have any intention of becoming friends with others, but even though she stays still, her classmates who approach her want to attract Seo-ah to their her her her her.
“…”
But, as if she didn’t have anything in mind, she tilted her head as she looked at the girls who had offered to join her group.
“One person… ?”
“Yes. One person. I want you to fill that position.”
Although their sociability is close to zero, even when they see the same woman, they show a desire to become friends with her because of her beautiful face and body of her, as if they are fascinated.
However, since she has absolutely no desire to become close to anyone, she just gently rows the whale.
“I don’t think it will work because I decided to go with her Jaewon.”
“Ah… Really… ?”
She couldn’t hide her disappointment when I told her that if she was going to take her, she would have to take me with her as well.
“Okay, okay.”
It’s a shame, but what can you do? All three of them seem to be her friends, but she can’t let one of them be sent away to take advantage of her.
She had no choice but to cleanly give up her life and turn around.
And they.
“That’s right, you two are dating.”
“Yes. Yes. It looks clear to me.”
She was completely under the impression that she and I were dating.
What… We even had sex and it would be safe to say we were dating, but the problem was that it was both our first time in love and our first time dating, so we didn’t confess.
Saro only revealed that they liked each other. Since he didn’t ask me to date him separately, I couldn’t even guess how to take it.
I wondered if it would be okay to just accept them as dating, as they said, but I also wondered if Seo-ah could just accept it that way without saying anything.
“Shall we go get something to eat?”
“Yeah… “
After having sex, I feel like we’ve become much closer, but it also feels like a wall has been built that is transparent and can be removed with a gentle push.
The wall that was built between us was too weak to break down, but the problem was that my heart was too weak to push that wall down.
As I headed to the restaurant side by side with Seo-ah, I was constantly worried.
All I have to do is ask if we’re just dating, but I have no idea why I’m so embarrassed.
“What do you want to eat?”
Standing in front of the restaurant kiosk, I asked Seo-ah.
“It just needs to be the same as yours…”
“Then, two pieces of stir-fried pork?”
“Yes.”
I ordered two simple, quick, cheap and delicious stir-fried pork dishes and went to my seat.
When we sit side by side and look at each other blankly, our eyes meet and we look away repeatedly.
“I’m out. I’ll come back.”
Just looking at Seo-ah kept reminding her of that time and her face turned red.
It became hot again and my lower body continued to react.
So, as if running away, when the bell rang, I got up from my seat and went to get the steaming, steaming stir-fried pork.
“…”
Bringing food was just a moment.
The place where I was sitting just now came into view.
When the image of the beautiful woman still sitting in front of me caught her her eye her her her, her heart pounded and her face turned red, as if she had been waiting.
Also, knowingly or unknowingly, my lower leg began to react and my gait became strange.
“Now… Here.”
I sat down with great difficulty and held out the stir-fried pork in front of her.
“Thank you.”
Seo-ah immediately picked up her spoon and started eating the stir-fried pork.
After observing her for a moment, I finally picked up the spoon.
“Huh? It’s time to stand.”
At that moment, the three girls who had just asked us, or to be more precise, Seo-ah, if she wanted to be in their group, found Seo-ah and immediately approached where we were sitting.
“We were eating together?”
“Yes.”
The quiet atmosphere suddenly became noisy with their appearance.
“Can I sit next to you?”
I told Seo-ah.
And it seemed as if the gaze was directed towards me and was simultaneously asking for my permission.
“You can sit down.”
Since we hadn’t rented a place and I couldn’t bear to tell them not to sit down, I answered by telling them to do as they were pleased, and they immediately put down their luggage as if they had been waiting for me to say this.
One person sat next to me and one person on each side of Seo-ah.
“Seoya. Do you know this?”
“… ?”
As soon as they sat down, they created a noisy atmosphere and asked Seo-ah various questions, to the point that she suddenly missed the quiet atmosphere just before.
Personally, it may have been just an act of wanting to get closer to Seo-ah, but unlike me, the girls’ behavior itself was bound to be uncomfortable for Seo-ah, who was a voluntary person.
Still, he didn’t show it and simply answered the question with a short answer.
They say that girls usually get hurt and feel bad even over trivial things.
These are the three people who do their best to get along with Seo-ah, regardless of her short answers and her inability to get along with her.
“Ah, ours is out. I’ll be back for a bit~!”
Soon, when the food they ordered came out, they got up and pushed their chairs and left the place for a while.
“Should we eat quickly and leave?”
“Yeah… “
To be honest, it was a sight that I was a little envious of, but it was more of a burden to her partner, Seo-ah, than anything else, so we decided to eat quickly and then go out.
“We’re here~”
The girls returned as Seo Ah was quickly moving her spoon and shoving food into her mouth.
As soon as they returned, they started talking to Seo-ah again as if they were trying to interrupt her from eating, but she still didn’t stop moving her spoon.
We finally finished eating.
“Can you wait a little while? We’re about to eat it all.”
Unable to hide her disappointment, she carefully asked if she could stand up with her, and I answered instead of Seo-ah.
“I’m sorry. We haven’t found a source yet, so I’m thinking of looking for it after eating.”
“Ah… Really… ?”
If possible, it was a group project that two people would want to do, but the professor insisted on four people.
If there were not enough people, we would have made the excuse that we had no choice but to do it together as there was no one else to do it with.
As it happened, the students listening to the professor’s lecture were divided into exactly four people.
No, I think that’s why the professor asked us to work in groups of four to do the assignment.
Anyway, after giving this reason, they stopped arresting us.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Seo-ah and I stood up.
We put the plates, bowls, and cutlery on the tray and then left the restaurant.
We left the restaurant first, lying that we were looking for help, but it wasn’t a complete lie.
Since the deadline for the assignment was only a week, we had to find resources as quickly as possible to start the assignment, but Seo-ah and I didn’t say anything and just started walking side by side on the beautifully laid out university grounds. . .
“…”
As I walked, I constantly looked at the person next to me.
Then, I opened my mouth first to resolve the still awkward relationship, even though it seemed like we had become closer forever.
“That… Is it… ?”
“Yeah… “
“You know… “
I hesitated and with difficulty brought out the words that had been buried for a long time.
“Are we… Dating?”
They confessed their feelings to each other, even had sex, and it was already a given that they were dating.
Nevertheless, when I asked her a question, revealing her desire to hear it directly from Seo-ah, her steps stopped for a moment.
Soon my steps stopped.
“…”
Seo Ah blushed as she looked at me looking back at her without saying a word.
“Yeah… “
A voice of positivity flowing after a long silence.
“Couldn’t we be dating?”
But then she also said something that left me quite unsure.
“Puhup.”
When both I and Seo-ana approached me in such a pathetic yet cute way, I couldn’t hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
I approached Seo-ah, who was tilting her head when she saw me suddenly laughing.
“I love you.”
I took her face and said I love you.
“Me too…”
As I told her that I loved her equally, she gently closed her eyes and our lips met.
This is Seo-ah who is shy!
