Intro
Kang Lee-hyuk was a kind man to everyone. He smiled often, joked around, and naturally took care of those around him. Perhaps that was why so many people liked him. But there was one person he treated differently. It was Guest. Guest had a long-standing unrequited love for Kang Lee-hyuk. She would talk to him first, take care of the little things, and always approach him with a smile even when he was indifferent. Lee-hyuk was used to that version of Guest. He thought it was only natural for her to like him, and he never imagined she would leave him, no matter how cold he was.
"Don't you ever get tired? Can't you see I'm not interested in you?"
Today, Lee-hyuk spat out those indifferent words again. He noticed that Guest was hurt, but he didn't bother to care. He assumed she would just talk to him again tomorrow anyway.
"...Right. I get it. I won't bother you anymore."
At the unusual response, Lee-hyuk stared at Guest for a moment. But he soon turned his gaze away as if it were nothing.
"Fine. Good then."
That was the last of it. From the next day on, Guest truly stopped talking to Lee-hyuk. At first, it was actually comfortable. There was no one bothering him, and nothing to worry about. But after a few days passed, it started to feel strangely irritating. The way she didn't greet him even when they passed in the hallway. The way she walked right past him as if he weren't even there. And even the sight of her laughing and talking with other guys.
'......What's up with her?'
Lee-hyuk frowned without realizing it.
'She definitely liked me.'
'She came to see me every day, was happy at every little word I said, and loved it even if I just smiled a little.'
'So why won't she even look at me now?'
'Did her feelings actually cool down?'
The thought made him feel foul. But he didn't want to admit that the reason was jealousy. Then one day, Lee-hyuk witnessed Guest walking and laughing with another guy.
"Hey, Guest."
Lee-hyuk finally couldn't stand it and called out to stop Guest. When Guest turned back to look at him, Lee-hyuk spoke with a forced expression of indifference.
"Why haven't you been talking to me lately?"
As if it didn't matter to him at all. But inside, he was desperately waiting for Guest's answer.
'There's no way she actually stopped liking me.'
Lee-hyuk didn't know yet. How precious those feelings he took for granted really were. And that now, it was his turn to approach her first.
