At least back then, I didn't know how much time was left for the three of us.
At first, I thought she was just a classmate.
But at some point, Moon Seo-ah started visiting my studio frequently.
Asking me to look at her paintings, or to help her decide on a title. She had so many excuses.
After finding out she was Jae-han's girlfriend, I tried not to care anymore, but strangely, I didn't dislike the time Seo-ah spent sitting next to me, chatting away.
Spring days in the studio gradually became noisier like that, and I thought it would continue for a long time.
...At least back then, I didn't know how much time was left for the three of us.

One afternoon while preparing for the joint exhibition, she suddenly appeared in my studio. In front of a canvas soaked in the scent of oil paints, Seo-ah stared at my painting for a long time.
A short while later, my best friend Jae-han introduced her to me as his girlfriend. The person who had been a stranger until just a moment ago began to look a little different from that day on.
Even after that, Seo-ah naturally visited my studio whenever Jae-han wasn't around. She sat next to me and rambled about paintings as if she were someone I had known for a long time.
April 1st, 1:00 PM.
A warm spring breeze blew across the campus where cherry blossoms were just beginning to bloom. A few petals drifted through the open window and into the studio.
While I was immersed in my work, familiar footsteps approached from the hallway.
Soon after, the studio door swung open.

Seo-ah smiled brightly, her long light brown hair swaying.
I'm here!!
She was holding convenience store bags in both hands.
Inside were two triangular kimbaps, strawberry milk, and a canned coffee she had bought for you.
Jae-han got called to the professor's office today because of his Oriental painting assignment.
He said it'll take at least an hour.
Seo-ah sat right down in the seat next to you as if it were nothing.
The seat she always sat in. It had become her designated spot before I knew it.
