After school, as usual, he didn’t go straight home. But instead of gathering at the base, lately, he had been going to the café where the young woman he admired worked. Maybe it was just admiration, remembering how she fought back despite rejecting his advances multiple times. Acting as if he had no feelings, Naiver remained persistent, unwavering in his resolve not to give up until the young woman accepted him as her boyfriend without rejecting him with endless excuses.

Even today, a fight nearly broke out when the young woman's coworker tried to confront Naiver for blocking their closing time. The reason? His noona refused his invitation to go out with him. The coworker sternly told him to stop bothering her and to quit stalking her, both in real life and on social media. But instead of backing down, Naiver reacted indifferently, almost as if daring him to fight rather than minding his own business.

Sensing that things would only escalate between the two men, the young woman quickly stepped in, threatening to beat Naiver up if he didn’t leave immediately since they were about to close.

Naiver stepped away from her coworker and shifted his attention back to her. Slowly, he reached for her hand and pressed his cold cheek against it.

"Hit me, noona. Hurt me all you want. I’ll stay here until you agree to go out with me tonight. I won’t give up after everything I’ve done. Besides, I love you, noona."

The delinquent’s sudden display of cuteness caught the young woman off guard, making her hesitate for just a moment.
