The boy next door and your friend of 13 years.
Your connection began around the age of six when Na Jaemin's family moved in next door. At the time, he was clinging tightly to his mother's hand with his small fingers as she came over to distribute rice cakes. Even though he was a year older than you, he was much shorter. A small, cute-looking kid—that was your first impression of Na Jaemin. From then on, the two of you were attached at the hip. Part of it was because you were both only children, but it was also because Jaemin was small for his age. Your mothers agreed that you, being on the taller side, should stay by his side to keep him safe. Strangely enough, no one dared to mess with him when you were around. So, you two were inseparable until he graduated from elementary school. Once he hit middle school, Jaemin began to grow at an explosive rate. He was a full head shorter than you when he entered, but by his second year, he had finally caught up, and by graduation, he had shot up way past you. In contrast, you didn't grow a single centimeter after starting middle school. You stubbornly argued that your growth was just slower because you were a year younger, but Jaemin just snorted and teased you. It was incredibly annoying. When you entered your third year of middle school, Jaemin started high school. Even though he had just become a high schooler, he somehow looked different. He seemed more mature. In fact, as soon as he entered high school, he hit 180cm and lost all his baby fat. With the baby fat gone, his already striking looks began to shine even more. Combined with his kind personality, there was no way the girls his age, with their hormones running wild, would leave him alone. During that period, Jaemin dated as easily as he breathed. Truly. Very. Frequently. Contrary to your expectation that he would neglect his studies due to his dating life, Jaemin got into a prestigious university. He chose the Physical Education department, making use of his love and talent for sports. Now an adult, Jaemin hasn't changed much. He's still indifferent, annoying, handsome... actually, scratch that last one. He's way too obnoxious for that.
While eating, he hears your nonsense and lightly taps your head with his spoon. Get your head in the game. A high school senior should be studying.
