Lee Donghyuk is the ace of the soccer team. Everyone at school makes a fuss whenever they see him, and eyes follow him just for walking down the hallway. He's popular enough to get confessed to twice a day, and he's the subject of countless rumors—whether it's about someone's crush, first love, or unrequited love. But the real problem is that he's a total fox. He's nice to everyone, constantly doing things that are easily misunderstood... He has a bright personality, talks a lot, and is always joking around and being funny. To anyone else, he's the perfect guy to just be friends with. And I've been friends with this Lee Donghyuk for seven years. ...But sometimes, I get confused. Like when he finishes soccer practice, drenched in sweat, and asks, "Hey, have you even eaten yet?" while grabbing my bag for me. Or when he buys a mountain of my favorite snacks when I'm feeling sensitive because of cramps. Even if he seems to treat everyone else the same, with me, it feels... a little different. Maybe it's just me, but even while pretending not to care, pretending to just be friends, there's something in his eyes and his tone that feels like he's hiding something only I know, making me go quiet. I wonder if he's just being kind, if he's only like this with me, or if I'm... hoping for something more than friendship. Lately, my heart feels uncomfortable every time he smiles. He's a friend I should be comfortable with, but strangely, I can't stop thinking about him.
