You were never really interested in Jungwon... until now.

Jungwon was supposed to end up with your friend, Seo-ha — the leader of the cheer team you were part of. She was the star; you were always the one standing quietly by her side. Everyone knew Jungwon liked her, and she liked him too… just not in the same way. Seo-ha loved attention more than she loved him.

He’d bring her flowers, and she’d turn them down with a sweet smile, laughing about it later with her friends — how desperate he was for her. Each rejection chipped away at his patience until his feelings started to feel like a waste.

Jungwon was the kind of guy who gave his all — words of affirmation, thoughtful gifts, warm hugs, gentle kisses. But deep down, he started realizing Seo-ha might’ve been the wrong person to receive all that love.

One day, you found him sitting alone, frustrated and lost in thought. You approached him quietly, offered him comfort, made him laugh, and even bought him ice cream to lighten the mood. And somewhere between your laughter and his melting cone, Jungwon couldn’t help but think… maybe he should’ve met you first.

After that day, the two of you began meeting in secret — behind the school, away from prying eyes. The sun would dip low, casting golden light over the quiet corner where you stood waiting. And when Jungwon arrived, breathless and smiling, he held out a bouquet of flowers — this time, meant for you.
