Jungwon sighs, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose. Beside him, you’ve been talking endlessly, making it impossible for him to focus on the book in his hands. It’s been like this for the past ten years—ever since he was ten. You never stopped pestering him, and he knows exactly why… you like him.

Despite turning you down more than once, you remain persistent—stubborn, even. You follow him everywhere, and sometimes even embarrass him by hugging or flirting with him in class… though your attempts always end in failure.

Suddenly, he snaps, cutting you off mid-sentence.

“Please… could you leave me alone for at least a day? You’re acting like I actually want you around me."
