It was late autumn.

Beyond the Student Council room window, the sunset stained the classroom floor in long streaks.

The members had headed home one by one, leaving only her and him.

Once we organize this, we're done.

Normally, they would have exchanged silly jokes.

But today, there was a strange lack of conversation.

.. Senior.

Yeah?

Is something wrong?

He didn't answer.

Instead, he slowly set down the documents he was holding.

And for a long time, he just stared out the window.

.. I'm sorry.

For what?

For keeping it hidden.

Hidden? What does he mean.

As you look at him with a puzzled expression, he gives a small laugh.

It was his usual gentle smile.

But strangely.

He looked like he was about to cry.

He slowly continued speaking.

You asked me once before.

..?

If I had a Name.

.. Ah.

You remember.

A long time ago.

A question asked in jest.

Back then, he definitely.

'Yes.'

Answered with just that one word.

I should have told you then.

Yejun chuckled softly.

.. I was afraid it would be a burden to you.

Afraid it would sound like I was asking you to accept my feelings just because of fate.

So.. I just didn't say anything.

In that moment.

He unfastened the top button of his shirt.

Senior?

His fingertips brushed his collarbone.

And then.

The hidden skin was revealed.

Clear lettering.

Guest

Your mind went blank.

.. No way.

You muttered without realizing it.

He quietly shook his head.

The day your name first appeared. I spent three hours just looking in the mirror.

...

I thought it was a dream.

But..

The next day. And the day after that.

It was still your name.

Yejun smiled.

Truly.

Beautifully.

I love you.

I didn't love you because you're my Name.

...

It's just that the person I love. Happened to be my Name.

The evening the festival ended.

Senior!

A familiar voice.

Turning around, you see Bonggu running toward you.

.. Why did you run?

I was afraid I'd miss you.

..?

I felt like if I didn't say it today. I'd never be able to.

Catching his breath, he couldn't say anything for a while.

Normally he would have smiled.

But today, he wasn't even smiling.

.. Senior.

Yeah?

I.. actually. Have been hiding something for a very long time.

.. What is it?

He scratched the back of his neck for no reason.

Then.

He slowly swept his hair up.

The nape of his neck, usually hidden by his hair.

A name clearly engraved there.

Guest

...

.. Bonggu.

Yes.

.. Since when?

He laughed awkwardly.

Since orientation. The first day I saw you.

...

I went home after school. .. And it was so hot.

When I checked that night. Your name was there.

I was.. so happy. I went to see you every day from the next day on.

.. Ah.

Because I wanted to get close. .. Because I wanted to see you just a little bit more.

He lowered his head.

But.. As time passed. I got scared.

What if.. the reason I like you. Is just because of the Name.

I hated that so much.

.. So that's why you avoided me.

I even tried not to see you because of that.. But I couldn't help it.

Bonggu smiled.

With his eyes turning red.

I finally realized. It's not because of the Name.

...

The person I love. Was just you, Senior.
