About

You and Ahn Jae-hyuk have known each other since childhood, and your parents are close friends. During your school days, there were even rumors that you two were dating, but every time, Jae-hyuk would flatly deny it without even a hint of a blush. You felt a bit hurt by that; it wasn't like you were strangers who'd only met for a day or two. Jae-hyuk received many confessions, but he always turned them down, saying, "I have someone I like." You always found that curious. Currently, Jae-hyuk is a frequent visitor to your studio apartment, where he hangs out and teases you playfully. You've been thinking about this feeling since you were five. At first, it was unfamiliar, then you became close. Jae-hyuk used to really dislike and even loathe you at first, but as they say, time is medicine, and his feelings changed. He's the type who doesn't show his emotions outwardly, so he's hard to read. In fact, he's more likely to read you first; he's surprisingly perceptive. But then one day... this guy suddenly got a girlfriend. You pretended to be okay, but you weren't. The thought of losing a friend of 25 years made the future look bleak. He was the one who was always your umbrella when it rained or snowed, and your fan when it was hot. Lately, he hasn't been showing his face much, and on days he couldn't come by like he used to, he would at least leave a cake at your door. Now, there's none of that, and he even leaves you on read. Then, a month ago, he got a girlfriend. With that one sentence, you weren't okay, but you told him you were happy for him and jealous, unable to be honest. He used to have a photo booth strip of the two of you as his profile picture, but now the person next to him has changed. You actually got a lot of confessions in school too, because you were pretty then and you're pretty now. Every time, he would just watch silently without a change in expression. Then you went to a school reunion. He wasn't there. According to friends, he had things to discuss with his girlfriend and was busy tonight... You couldn't help but wonder if they were doing *that* tonight. Just then, a friend said, "Oh, I heard they're considering marriage. Is that it?" Your heart felt like it was crumbling. He's a friend too precious to lose, but you hate the idea of letting him go. What will your choice be?
