Episode 36

How did you know, no. Since you probably don’t really know, how could you just assume that was the case without any explanation? It was a little strange.

Ji-eun Seung-hyeon unconsciously asked, “How did you know?” and almost dropped his phone in surprise at the sudden buzzing sound.

It was a call from one of the few people registered in the address book on this cell phone. The person I was in contact with a little while ago.

The time between sending a reply and making a call was shorter than the time it took for a reply to arrive. Seunghyun, who was contemplating for a moment whether to answer the call or not, pressed the answer button.

“hello.”

-Where does it hurt?

“suddenly… “What kind of idiot are you talking about?”

Is it normal to just say that I don’t think I’ll be able to keep my promise, but then immediately ask if I’m sick? No, usually you just ask why.

―Seeing as you don’t deny it, I guess it’s true.

“No, it’s just that it’s such a random story. “Why on earth are you even thinking like that?”

-Well, I’m not the type of person to do that without any reason.

Jaeyoung’s voice was full of confidence. A voice says that it can never be like that. Seunghyun said with a slight sneer.

“You speak as if you know me very well.”

It was someone I had only met for about a month at most. But how is he so confident in himself?

-I don’t know much, but… At least you know the basics. Things about Seunghyun Han.

“Everything you hear through rumors is probably meaningless.”

Because that person and I are different people. Seunghyeon answered casually. The Han Seung-hyun in the rumors was different from his current self in every way.

Anyone who knows ‘Han Seung-hyun’ well enough to think that it is definitely time for him to die.

‘If you think about it that way, it’s a perfect excuse.’

Seunghyun thought with a self-deprecating smile. Should I call this fortunate or not? While I was thinking about that, Jaeyoung said.

-I didn’t even know much about rumors to begin with. Even if you only spend a day together, you can tell that he is a different person than the rumors say, so why do I think such things?

There was a hint of absurdity in the voice that said that. Actually, if he had cared so much about the rumors, he wouldn’t have been interested in Seunghyeon in the first place. Even if I had it, I would have been wary.

―It is true that there is still more I don’t know about Han Seung-hyun than I do… Still, I know that Seunghyun Han is not the person to contact me like this for trivial reasons. Last time… You hid it, didn’t you?

He was talking about a time when he lost contact with a large bruise on his face. I didn’t think much of it, but it seemed like it was quite a memorable event for Jaeyoung.

-So, don’t try to hide it and just say it. Does it hurt a lot?

It seems that Seunghyun didn’t have too many expectations for Jaeyoung. Seunghyun, who was pondering for a moment what to say in response to his confident tone, spoke.

“It’s nothing to worry about.”

It’s a bit of a funny thing to say while living someone else’s life, but I wasn’t used to lying well enough to be good at it.

I felt like I would get caught if I told a complete lie. It’s okay if I don’t tell him, but for some reason, I feel like I’ll tell him if Jaeyoung keeps asking.

In this case, the best way would have been to mix the truth with lies. Seunghyun spoke loudly, clearing his voice slightly.

“It doesn’t hurt. However, I recently had a health check-up and there were some bad numbers, so I decided to take medicine for a while and see how it progressed, but I lost the medicine. “I’m going to get it back.”

-Isn’t that painful?

“You just take it thinking it’s a nutritional supplement. It’s been about a month since I took the medicine… . If I had such a big health problem, how could I move around like that for a month? “It’s just that I’m a bit sensitive to my health.”

If it didn’t hurt right in front of you, it’s the same as not hurting. Seunghyun thought so and said.

“When it comes to people, you never know what will happen, so shouldn’t you pay attention?”

No matter how much money a person had, he could not be completely free from illness or accidents. That wasn’t just Seunghyun’s problem. So this subtle lie was a pretty good excuse.

―I’m glad it doesn’t hurt, but… Still, you were surprised. When Han Seung-hyun suddenly says he feels like he has to cancel his appointment, I think he might be in a lot of pain.

“You have a lot to worry about. “Are you friends?”

Since we’re friends, that wasn’t a question, it was a confirmation. I didn’t like this worry. It felt a bit strange to say that he knew something about me.

But it shouldn’t go any further than that. That was the minimum level of responsibility and conscience.

―… yes. Because we are friends.

The answer came a beat late. I was bothered by the slightly late answer, but the more I forced my heart, the more I held my head high.

It would be better to just wait for it to disappear naturally. It was a slightly different method than he first thought, but Seunghyun sighed softly, thinking that he had properly conveyed that it would be difficult to meet tomorrow.

“So I think it will be difficult to meet tomorrow. I am sorry.”

-When will you come back?

“well. It won’t take long… “It will be around dinner time when I get back.”

Since I was only getting prescribed medication anyway, it wouldn’t take long, and I thought I could get home in about an hour and a half at best. As I answered casually, I could hear a sound of contemplation through her cell phone.

“Are you sure you want to come?”

-It’s close to my house, so I’m not going too hard. Even though we met during the day, it’s not like we planned on staying together all night.

“That’s true.”

It wasn’t a difficult time to eat dinner together, talk about something meaningless, and then go home. Seunghyun thought for a moment and then answered.

“follow your heart.”

Well, it’s just a quick look. It’s a bit boring to be alone in a large house. When I answered indifferently, Jaeyoung spoke on the other end of the phone.

―Is there anything to eat at home? I heard it will take some time for your aunt to come. Should I buy something?

“Otherwise, I had nothing to do and was free, so I went to the supermarket. “It was nice because there were so many things nearby.”

-Yes, that’s true. Even if there is no downtown area, there is everything there. Oh, there is also a nice park nearby. I know that place well. I’ll guide you through it next time.

It was natural to secretly make the next appointment. Since it wasn’t uncomfortable or bothersome, Seunghyun decided to pretend not to notice.

“is it so. then.”

The conclusion was a little different from what I expected, but it wasn’t a bad feeling. Feeling refreshed, Seunghyun put down his phone and lay down completely on the sofa. The still unfamiliar ceiling felt unusually high.

“I never get tired of playing every day.”

I didn’t think that a life of doing nothing but playing would be boring, but I also thought there would be moments when I would get a little bored, but I was worried for no reason.

Time passed surprisingly well just by sitting still, and there were quite a variety of things to do, so there was no time to get bored. If I could, I felt like I could stay like this for years, even decades.

“Time shouldn’t pass too quickly.”

However, the more fun I had, the faster time passed and I wasn’t very happy about it. It would be great if time passed more slowly the happier you were.

Although each day was lazily enjoyable, I felt like it was a waste. However, she did not dare to have a definite hobby because she felt that she would become more impatient if she had a goal.

“I thought that in a world like this, I would be able to do whatever I wanted without worrying about others, but I keep holding back because I’m scared of myself, not others.”

It’s nice to see other people’s opinions, but I keep hesitating because I’m worried about my future self. The more fun and happy you are right now, the more painful it will be when you have to leave.

Having an end had clear pros and cons. I knew it was a problem because I was thinking too much, but it was my nature and there was nothing I could do about it.

It would have been nice if I had a very thoughtless personality, but no. It would have been better if I didn’t know when I was going to die. If you don’t know, you don’t have to be afraid of that day.

“still… “This should be okay.”

However, I didn’t want to send my only friend other than ‘Han Seung-hyeon’.

I know what kind of feelings he has right now and what direction those feelings could grow into, but I just wanted to pretend not to know.

Because I don’t like being alone, it’s fun to be together. Because when you’re happy, you can’t get lost in your thoughts.

“I’m going to be very busy tomorrow.”

Seunghyun sighed softly and stood up. It felt like if I stayed awake longer like this, useless thoughts would come again. In times like this, the answer was to just sleep.

‘It’s true that there’s still more I don’t know about Han Seung-hyun than I do… Still, I know that Han Seung-hyun is not the person to contact me like this for trivial reasons.’

As I turned off the light in the living room, I remembered Jaeyoung’s voice that I heard a while ago. Somehow, I felt a little excited about tomorrow.
