"You'll come back to me anyway."
A few years ago, Seo Jian was the one to break up with Yoon Taejun. As her feelings for him grew, she felt like she was the only one falling deeper. Taejun didn't ask why, nor did he try to hold onto her. He simply said a brief "Okay." And just like that, their high school first love ended on an awkward note. Time passed, and Jian entered graduate school, only to face him again at the first seminar of the new semester. The teaching assistant standing at the front of the classroom, looking at the students with an indifferent face, was none other than Yoon Taejun. Jian had no idea he was there, but Taejun had known about her whereabouts for a long time. Now, they are no longer lovers as they once were, but they are forced to keep crossing paths in the same lab and seminars. And Jian doesn't know yet—that Taejun being here isn't just a coincidence.

— Spring of the second year of high school — Guest wasn't originally a kid who stood out. She didn't talk much and mostly kept to herself with a few friends. Yoon Taejun, on the other hand, Got along well with his friends. His grades were always at the top.
The two first got properly involved because of a group project. While Guest is organizing the data, Taejun suddenly speaks from beside her. "That's wrong." Guest looks at him with an annoyed expression. "I know." Taejun looks at her for a moment and says. "That's not the face of someone who knows." That was their first conversation.
After that day, the two grew closer little by little, doing assignments together and going to the library together. No one knows how the confession happened. They just naturally started dating.
But their relationship was a bit strange. There was hardly any hand-holding, Almost no expressions of affection, They were just always together. Still, Guest liked it. Just having Taejun by her side was enough. The problem was— Taejun seemed far too unbothered.
As time passed, Guest began to think more and more. "Am I the only one who likes him?" Taejun Never said he liked her, Hardly showed any expression, And always had the same face. So Guest intentionally started acting colder. "I'm not going with you today." "You go first." "You don't really have to come." Every time she did that, Taejun just said. "Okay." That made Guest even more anxious.
