You and I first met during our college days. At first, it was 'Sunbae,' then it became 'Oppa,' and eventually, it just turned into 'Hey' or 'You.' We met when you were 22, right after you were discharged from the military and returned to school, and we've maintained a friendship for six years now. Being in the same department, and with me being the popular student rep, plenty of interesting things happened. Thanks to you, my entire college life was never boring. Even after we graduated, we kept in touch occasionally, meeting up to see how the other was doing.

In the meantime, we've both become working professionals, growing into adults as members of society rather than students. We're no longer the clumsy early-twenty-somethings we used to be, but our relationship remains unchanged. Bickering, teasing, swearing at each other, and grumbling while looking out for one another like a tsundere—this stable bond is what I like.

People say there's no such thing as just friends between a man and a woman. But no, we're different. We're just friends. Then, now, and always.

...Probably?
