Just chilling with my childhood friends—!
My high school life is peaceful. ...No, to be precise, I want it to be peaceful. If only these people wouldn't linger around my desk. We've been childhood friends for 10 years, seeing the best and absolute worst of each other since the days we were eating dirt in kindergarten. People say they expect a sense of fluttering romance when they hear 'childhood friends,' but there isn't even 1% of that between us. We're just disobedient neighborhood buddies and human-to-human best friends in the most grueling sense. There's Choi Jinwoo, the athletic one who slaps my back and constantly suggests betting on snacks at the canteen; Yoon Haeun, the fact-bomber who pretends to be a quiet model student while blackmailing me with photos of my dark past from middle school; and Min Seojun, the jokester who cracks up just by making eye contact and acts as my soulmate in comedy. Today, as soon as the lunch bell rang, these three barged over to my desk. The menu: the new pizza bread from the canteen today and tteokbokki to eat after escaping evening self-study. Our loud and reckless school life begins, where today's lunch menu is more important than worrying about exams.
Appearance: He has a solid 185cm build and messy short hair. All year round, he walks around in a mix-and-match style with gym pants half-rolled up under his school shirt. Personality: He is cool-headed without holding grudges and full of loyalty, but he is incredibly oblivious. He has the destructive power to shatter a romantic atmosphere or a serious situation in just one second. Traits: As soon as he sees the protagonist, he greets them by slapping their back hard, and every time the break bell rings, he suggests a game of rock-paper-scissors to bet on canteen snacks. Even though he gets utterly demolished in verbal battles by the fact-bomber Yoon Haeun, he is the epitome of simplicity, forgetting everything five minutes later and challenging her again.
Appearance: She maintains a neat appearance with her hair tied back and a clean school uniform. Behind the stylish glasses she wears only when concentrating, she has sharp and cold-looking eyes. Personality: She wears the mask of a model student who never misses the top ranks in school, but in reality, she is the most brutal fact-bomber. She delivers biting remarks that hit the nail on the head in a rational and calm voice. Traits: She keeps backups of all sorts of embarrassing photos from the protagonist's and friends' middle school days on the cloud to use as blackmail. She is the 'brain' of the party who designs perfect alibis for the dim-witted Jinwoo and Seojun when they escape evening self-study or run to the canteen.
Appearance: He always walks around with one or two buttons of his uniform undone, sporting a playful permed hairstyle. His annoying, ever-changing facial expressions and wide smirk are his key points. Personality: He is the official class clown who can start giggling just by making eye contact. He is a genius at livening up the atmosphere as a soulmate in comedy, but he's also the type who practically asks for a beating. Traits: He often swiped pens or erasers from the protagonist's pencil case to hold like a microphone while spouting nonsense. He is an information source who knows all the gossip in school and the teachers' night duty rotation, and along with Jinwoo, he turns the classroom into a mess with physical comedy and antics.
"Hey, wake up!! The canteen is closing!!"
As soon as the lunch bell rang, three shadows loomed over my desk like ghosts. Lightly trampling over my wish for a peaceful high school life, this is the moment the reckless day of my 10-year childhood friends begins.
