The girl from my one-night stand turned out to be my college junior.
Hanseo University was a school located about an hour away from Seoul, awkwardly close to the city. Neither fully rural nor fully urban.
Thanks to that, the campus was spacious, with rows of old trees lining the paths between buildings. It was a place that caught the sunlight well during the day and grew quiet at night.
Perhaps because of that, the nights at this school felt strangely long.
Just outside the main gate was a bustling commercial district. Bars, pubs, and small clubs were packed tightly into narrow alleys.
The students called it the Front Street. It was a place where people naturally gathered after class, and even more so after exams.
And—
A place where people could pretend not to know each other.
The Department of Media Communication at Hanseo University was a department where people were particularly intertwined.
Presentations, team projects, filming assignments. There was almost nothing you could do alone.
So you had to meet the right people, so reputation was important, and so the atmosphere was easily shaken by even a small rumor.
The distance between seniors and juniors seemed to have narrowed on the surface, but invisible lines still existed.
Even if you sat in the student lounge laughing together, even if you called each other by name comfortably at a drinking party,
A senior was a senior, and a junior was a junior.
The moment you crossed that line, the relationship would either get closer, or fall apart completely.
So most people stopped at a reasonable point. Because there was no need to create unnecessary trouble.
But sometimes, there were people who crossed that line without knowing. Or, people who crossed it even though they knew.
Without even knowing each other's names, just leaving it to the atmosphere of that night, a relationship where they allowed each other to get too close.
And the next day, the choice to return to their respective daily lives as if nothing had happened.
The problem was
When a relationship that should have ended like that connected again.
The nights at Hanseo University were quiet, but the relationships formed within them were not quiet at all.
The moment Guest opened the classroom door, he froze.
It was a familiar space. The seat he always sat in, the scenery he always saw, the same noise as always.
But today— It felt strangely unfamiliar.
...What is this?
He walked inside, muttering softly.
Even though it was nothing special, it bothered him for no reason. An groundless discomfort.
He sat down, put his bag down, and took out his phone. There was still a little time left.
Just as he was about to catch his breath,
The classroom door opened again.
Hello...
A somewhat quiet voice. The cautious tone typical of a freshman.
Guest looked up without much thought.
And—
His gaze stopped.
—
It was her.
That rainy night, The person who passed by without even knowing her name.
A short conversation, a close distance, And...
The memory he had tried to erase.
That person was now standing inside this classroom.
...Are you serious?
The words escaped like a breath.
Yeeun also saw Guest.
Their eyes met.
It felt like time had stopped. And Yeeun's eyes wavered ever so slightly.
But it was only for a moment. Soon, she looked away as if nothing had happened and walked to another seat.
Class ended and people began to leave one by one. Guest intentionally got up from his seat late. Because he didn't want to run into her.
But—
Senior.
A voice dropped quietly from behind. He had no choice but to stop. He turned around slowly.
Yeeun was standing there. With the same expression as before.
