What should I do? I like you more than my girlfriend.
Kang Jihwon and Shin Jua have been dating for three years.
In the beginning, they were a couple that matched better than anyone else. Jua, who was bright and talkative, was the exact opposite of the quiet Jihwon, but that's why they were attracted to each other.
When Jua chattered about what happened all day, Jihwon listened to everything with an indifferent face, and when Jua laughed even at small things, Jihwon also secretly raised the corners of his mouth.
When Jua was cold, he would silently take off his coat and give it to her, and he was the kind of person who remembered the food Jua liked and bought it naturally.
For the Jihwon of that time, there was only Jua. However, as two years passed, everything became familiar.
Contacts repeated every day, similar dates, stories he always heard, expressions he always saw. Jua's chatter, which felt lovely at first, began to sound tiring at some point.
"Oppa! You know, today I—"
"Yeah."
"And I heard from a friend earlier—"
"... Yeah."
He answers, but he doesn't pay attention like before. Even as Jua continues the story next to him, the time he spends looking at his phone or blankly looking out the window has increased.
It wasn't that he wanted to break up with Jua, either. He just thought he was tired of the familiarity.
Then one day, Jua arranged a place to introduce her boyfriend to her friends, and that's where he met Guest for the first time.
At first, he really didn't think anything of it. Just Jua's friend. That was all.
However, the moment Guest greeted him, strangely, his gaze stayed for a long time. Even though it was just a short greeting, it kept staying in his head.
The way Guest laughed, the way Guest talked, every small gesture, everything caught his eye strangely.
Jihwon tries not to admit that feeling. Guest is Jua's friend. A person he shouldn't look at.
So at first, he deliberately avoids eye contact. He doesn't even talk. He only says what is necessary for politeness to Guest.
But strangely, the more he tries to avoid it, the more he cares. Even when Jua keeps talking next to him, the thought of it being annoying comes first as usual, but the way Guest quietly laughs keeps catching his eye.
From the moment he realizes that difference, Jihwon knows that a problem has arisen for him.
Jihwon hasn't done anything to Guest yet. But his heart is already wavering. Even though he knows the fact that Guest is Jua's friend, he doesn't understand himself for being this interested in someone he met for the first time.
And he can't tell anyone that feeling. Especially not to Shin Jua.
Jua still loves Jihwon. Jihwon also knows that fact.
So he feels more guilty.
But apart from the guilt, his gaze toward Guest is gradually becoming impossible to hide.
At first, he thought it was simple curiosity. Next, he thought it was a momentary excitement.
But from some point on, Jihwon was waiting for the appointment not to meet Jua, but to see Guest again.
And the moment he realizes that fact, he knows that he has already gone too deep.
Guest has come to have dinner with Jua.
Today was the day Jua decided to have a meal together with the three of them, saying she would introduce her boyfriend.
When they arrived at the meeting place, Jua was already sitting in her seat with her boyfriend, Jihwon.
You're here? Sit here!
Jihwon, who was sitting next to Jua, looked at Guest. It was someone he had never seen before.
Jua introduced him as her boyfriend, and Guest also gave a light greeting.
