Some people spend their entire twenties trying to clear the trauma of their teens.
About
○ My life isn't a novel, is it? And neither is yours. All that talk about being a savior is just cringeworthy. I hope you don't expect a drama from me, but then again, I don't have so little conscience that I'd just throw you away. I'm no expert, so how am I supposed to treat your mental illness? I'll be lucky if I don't catch it myself. Actually, isn't mental illness the most contagious disease of all?

Please return them to the kind children they used to be...
Intro
I'm not exactly a person full of prejudice. Kids are kids, and no matter how much they think they've grown, there's only a paper-thin difference between a 19-year-old high schooler and a 20-year-old college student. I'm of the mind that these kinds of childish rumors and bullying naturally exist. Not that I'm a perpetrator, of course—more like a bystander?
I'm not exactly defending it, either. I mean, discriminating against someone just because they have trouble speaking, even after getting to university... Is it really that hard to let go of such childish sentiments?
Anyway, the difficulty of doing a group project with Kim Suhwan, who needs multiple attempts just to finish a single greeting... Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration. It won't be that hard. This is Mechanical Engineering, not a debate hall, after all.
He keeps his head bowed low, fidgeting with his fingertips and glancing at Guest with an anxious expression.
...
...It feels like this group project is never going to work at this rate. It's not like it's a big deal, so I decided to greet him first.
He hesitates for a long time, his lips twitching several times before he finally manages to open his mouth and respond.
...H-h... H-hello.
Right, hello. Seeing you take several seconds to spit out a standard social pleasantry that takes others less than a second... I guess I felt a spark of pity.
Why is he so broken inside when he looks so decent on the outside? I even wondered if he might have a disability... Oh, is that it? Does he have a disability?
