1. "..."
2. This kid...
5. "Looks like we have both a jin-ah and a jina in our class."
1. "Jina in our class?"
2. "You two should try getting along nicely at least once."
3. Heo Jina...?
3. At the start of the semester, we got some attention just because our names were pronounced the same,
4. But that was the only time we were ever linked.
1. Like oil and water that can't mix, or the sun and the moon that can't rise at the same time,
2. That's about the level of closeness between heo jina and me.
3. "She doesn't look like she's interested in me at all."
5. I wondered if I could even talk to her just once before the semester ended...
6. "Vacation's"
1. Graduation is coming up soon, so why is she acting like she knows me now...?
2. "Oh!!"
3. "H-hi?!"
4. "Wh-why did you call me~?"
1. "...you're way more airheaded than I thought."
2. "You're cute~"
3. Cute... Airheaded...?
4. Maybe my reaction amused her, because from then on, heo jina started approaching me a lot.
5. "Hi, jin-ah~"
1. "They've got semi-dried pollock today, wanna just go to the snack bar?"
2. "Stay still... Your hair's so stiff it keeps popping back up~"
3. She says my name so casually...
4. And I, drawn to
1. HOW DIFFERENT SHE WAS FROM ME,
2. "Hallinaye~ Hallinatte~"
3. "If I make money, I'll buy you beef..."
5. WE NATURALLY BECAME CLOSE ENOUGH TO TALK OPENLY WITH EACH OTHER.
1. "Here, take the big one."
2. "Yes!"
3. "If I'd known we'd get along this well, I would've talked to you way sooner~!"
4. "Our sense of humor matches, you're nice... And you're tall, so you're perfect to lean on."
5. "Ah... If you were a guy, I'd date you right away."
6. "...um, I like guys. Sorry..."
1. "Ah, I know~!! Don't take stuff like that so seriously."
2. "And I like guys too."
3. As I kept sticking with jina, I drifted away from my old group, but...
4. "Jin-ah, don't you have other friends?"
5. "You have to give people a chance to be friends with you."
6. "It's not like you're short on friends..."
7. "I mean, I saw you hanging out with other kids before, too~"
8. "I do have some, but... Um..."
1. "Forget it. It's more fun being with you."
2. "What~ that's so touching, my baby's too cute~~"
3. "Hey, lolol don't cling to me, it's hot!"
4. I didn't feel like there was any problem.
1. "Hey, we've always been an odd number until now, right?"
2. "Let's have this one join us, too."
3. "Hi..."
1. "..."
2. UNTIL HEO JINA INTRODUCED ME TO HER FRIENDS.
1. "No, so when Jung Yunseo got caught by the teacher, it was seriously hilarious-"
2. It was fine when it was just Jina and me... but now that we're all together, it feels awkward...
3. Heo Jina!! Can't you see me right now? You're the one who brought me here, so you should naturally include me too...!!!
1. It's awkward... suffocatingly awkward... how do I jump in...
3. "Jin-ah~ Are we making you uncomfortable? Why are you frowning so hard, lol"
1. "No! It's just!... I was lost in thought for a bit..."
3. What is this...?
4. "Come to think of it, how did you two get so close anyway?"
5. "Obviously, I"
1. "Seduced her first!"
2. "Hey, I thought she was super shy, but she's actually a freaking comedian lololol"
3. "Really?!"
4. "Last time, that drama... Hic... Science impersonation she did-"
5. "Hey, don't say that now- I told you not to..."
6. "What~"
1. "Show us too~~!!"
2. "Ooo~"
3. This is my first time seeing her laugh.
4. "Jina's all fired up lol"
6. ...What is this, seriously, since earlier...
7. "Ah..."
1. "I mean, when I first saw her, she scared the hell out of me, too."
3. "She was just standing silently in the middle of the classroom—I almost pissed myself."
4. "LOLOLOL like some ghost, seriously funny"
5. "Hey... but Jin-ah, lol"
6. "When you smile, your gums show, so it's not great."
1. "I think you're prettiest when you're just sitting still~"
2. ...Is she doing this on purpose?
3. Hurry, before this goes any further...
4. I have to say something...
1. "Hey, hey"
2. "That thing I bought at Étude last week."
3. "Oh, you like that?"
1. "Huh? Jina, where are you going?!"
2. "Just to the bathroom for a sec."
3. "Want me to come with you?"
4. "It's fine lol"
1. Just because I got close to Jina didn't mean I could get close to her friends too....
2. Why did I get so excited...
3. From now on, I'll just hang out with Jina, that's enough.
1. When I go back, I should act a bit calmer.
2. Please... stop living so airheadedly, Kim Jina...!!
3. "Ah!"
1. "!!!"
2. "Ugh!"
1. "Ah..."
2. "Hey... sorry. I wasn't watching where I was going-"
3. "...Are you okay?"
1. "Hand."
1. ...WH-WHO? HE'S HANDSOME...
2. TO BE CONTINUED...
