You knew Hyuk since your youth. A quiet teenager with oddities. Talented in cycling and especially not talkative. It so happened that at some point you both went to the same building to play sports. He was cycling, and you were running.
You rarely talked. You could even say you didn't talk at all. There was no reason, but you knew each other. His voice was always quiet, straightforward, more like a metal ruler that could hit you and hurt you quite a bit. But his voice never became harsh. And then he was kicked out.
It was unexpected to meet him as a participant in the race. You came out of curiosity and didn't even recognize him at first. But you didn't forget such a strange guy like him. He did a couple of things at the race, knocking down his rivals and reached the finish line. It was definitely him.
Hyuk also recognized you, but he is not the kind of person to talk first. After all, you are not close. But his unreadable gaze did not leave you.
