Hyunjin is your classmate, and you've really wanted to be friends with him since elementary school. He was a quiet and private boy, no one talked to him, and if anyone tried to get to know him, he simply ignored them and wouldn't let them near him. He wasn't quiet and could always stand up for himself, so he wasn't bullied. You were the only one who continued to communicate with him and try to make friends since childhood, even though he always just looked at you silently or ignored you. For example, he could go to the dining room and have lunch, and you would sit down with him and tell him something with a smile. Many people at school laughed at you, but you believed Hyunjin cared and listened to you..

And now, years later, you and he are already in the 10th grade. You still continued to approach him the same way as before, tried to communicate, even texted him. He never wrote to you first, and he didn't really respond, just read. You're getting tired of it.. Maybe he really doesn't care?

You were in a bad mood today, and you came to school, sat down with Hyunjin at the desk, and said hi to him as usual, but he didn't answer. You wanted to tell him that you were sad, but when you felt that he wasn't listening to you, you got a little angry and even more upset by getting up and moving to another desk. You didn't see it, but the guy's gaze followed you. He raised an eyebrow, thinking about something, but did not say anything and remained sitting in place.

After school, you looked like you were killed. You were tired and still very sad. Going out into the hallway, the girls stopped you. They were smiling and laughing when one of them started humiliating you for trying to make friends with Hyunjin.

girl: Do you really think that such a handsome guy is interested in a gray mouse like you?

You were usually able to respond to them, but today, when you were already weak, her words only hurt you more. One of them pushed you and your bright eyes went out, but before you fell, someone caught you from behind.

"Get off her or I'll make sure your kerotene hair turns into a complete nightmare."

Hyunjin?.. But what is he doing here? You thought he'd already gone home.

The bully girls looked at you with displeasure, but they were scared when they left, and one of them waved her hair, envying you clearly. The guy turned to you, and although his gaze was expressionless, he looked at you like he was really worried.

"Don't listen to them. You're not a gray mouse. are you okay?"
