Chapter 132: Chapter 132

.

Eun Hyung heaved a sigh with a smile then slipped a chopstick into Yeo Ryung’s left hand.

“Here.”

“…? I have a chopstick in my right hand…?!”

“You’re the only one among us who uses both hands.”

“So, have the noodles with both hands?” asking back, Ban Yeo Ryung laughed as if it was funny.

Looking very excited, Woo Jooin, beside her, brought another chopstick and said, “I’ll also try having it with both hands. Let’s see who’s better!”

Eun Jiho, across them, had a face that read ‘What a mind of a 9-year old…’ while looking at the two. ‘You don’t have that high mental age though,’ I though.

He then said to me, “Enjoy the noodles.”

“Geez, others will think it’s you who cook the noodles.”

“I meant, enjoy the noodles and get bigger.”

“…”

“Bigger like a pig.”

Eun Jiho then laughed naughtily and put some noodles in his paper cup. As I glanced at Yoo Chun Young while having the noodles, he still didn’t show any signs of leaving the terrace and coming over to have food together.

Our noodles ran out quickly within 10 minutes. Those who played the most part for that were… I scanned the kids sitting around the table while leaning on the couch. Finishing the noodles in a twinkling should be credited to Ban Yeo Ryung, who held chopsticks in both hands boasting, ‘I’ll show you my ambidextrous skills,’ and Woo Jooin, who tried to follow her eagerly despite him being a left-hander.

We had a lot of outdoor activities today than yesterday; therefore, Ban Yeo Ryung was drowsing already in exhaustion. Woo Jooin buried himself in the corner of the couch while deeply asleep. Eun Jiho… I wasn’t sure if he was dozing off or not. As he sank his head on his chest, he seemed to be in sleep.

With a smile, Eun Hyung told me that he would ask the kids in the small room about having some noodles, so I nodded and opened the terrace door.

The breeze was quite chilly and cold for a summer night. I felt my whole body inside a cold water. Over my thin summer sox, my feet touched the purple tiled floors of the terrace.

Leaning on the glossy silver balustrade, Yoo Chun Young turned back to see me. I smiled.

“What are you doing?”

If the other party didn’t talk that much, strangely, I became more talkative. This also applied to me and Yoo Chun Young’s situation. I didn’t feel uncomfortable about the silence hanging between us, but since Yoo Chun Young was a good listener, I became very talkative when being with him.

Today’s silence was, however, a bit odd. I couldn’t talk further, so that was all I asked and turned back to close the terrace door.

Until I stood beside him to lean on the balustrade, he remained silent. It didn’t mean that he showed no reactions at all. His blue eyes, under his beautifully- shaped thin brows and blue-black hair, were staring at me.

His eyes seemed to flutter with unusual emotions. Having that thought in mind, I looked at his eyes then dropped my gaze at the spot under our terrace. From the bottom of this building, ashy and pungent smoke came up and scattered away near us. I thought there was a snack bar right downstairs. ‘It wouldn’t be a student smoking though…?”

It was then when I had those thoughts in mind. Someone’s fingertip reached my cheek. It felt chilly as if it captured the blowing breeze just now. As I got surprised, I turned my head to look at his side. At that moment, his other hand stretched out to hold my cheek and pulled my face toward him.

My eyes grew bigger. The first thing that came into my sight was his long bluish lashes. His cheeks looked pale from the light leaking through the terrace. Holding my face with both hands, Yoo Chun Young kissed my cheek, exactly at the spot where Yi Ruda kissed me earlier.

“…”

His lips touched my cheek for a short time. After a second, he removed his lips from me. Still, he held my face for quite a while.

I looked at Yoo Chun Young in a breath-taking distance. Maybe because I cast a shadow on him, I could hardly see his face. Only his jet-black brows looked as if they were a little distorted.

At that very moment, he opened his lips and spoke to me. Our distance was so close that I felt like he was talking to me right in front of my ears.

“You still feel nothing, right?”

His deeply submerged voice rang around my ears and slowly scattered away. I raised my eyes to look at him. Under his long black lashes, his dimly-lighted blue eyes directed at me.

“You aren’t yet nervous at all… even if I do this to you, right?”

“…”

I didn’t respond but just furrowed my brows a little. His hands were still holding around my ears. When I lifted mine to push his hands away from me, he then released my face from him.

Rubbing my face, I looked at him in confusion. Yoo Chun Young was also staring at me yet showing no emotions on his face. It made me fall into thought.

‘Not nervous? At all? Do you think that makes sense?’ I quietly stretched my hands and seized him by the collar. When our eyes met, Yoo Chun Young displayed a dumbfounded look on his face. When I pulled his collar, his head just came down to me. I shook him all the way.

“Not nervous at all? Are you out of your mind?”

“What?”

I grimaced and continued my words.

“Dude, you… you can’t do this to me. You’re such an ass!”

“Wh…at…?”

“Not nervous? Do I look not nervous at all? Are you kidding me?”

“Hold on…”

Yoo Chun Young paused. When I released him out of my hands, he then coughed shortly and backed up.

I stared at him for a while then opened the door wide. The sliding door bumped against the opposite wall with a loud thud.

As if he woke up from that noise, Woo Jooin turned his drowsy gaze to our side.

“What’s up, mama?”

“I’m gonna go back to my room.”

“Ok, but did something happen?”

“No, not at all.”

I responded then gently grabbed and released Jooin’s hand on my way to the front door. I swept my tangled hair back then left the room with my shoes only half put on.

Walking across the hallway brightened up with the pouring moonlight, I slowly bit my lips. As if I looked too aggressive, a few kids passing me by cleared the way for me. Forcing my steps crazily to our room, I suddenly stopped at the pungent smell lingering around my nose.

The strong and piquant smell was a whiff of cigarette smoke. It was terribly the same as the smell I went through at the terrace. ‘Was it the kid who walked pass me by just now?’ With that thought in mind, I looked back.

The back of her appearance, a neat shoulder-length brown hair, and mine looked alike. ‘How can a girl smoke that badly? I saw some boys smoking but never saw any girls though…’ I furrowed my eyes.

Maybe she went to a place full of cigarette smoke or something like that. As I stared at her in wonder, the back of her appearance looked quite familiar. ‘She might be someone I know or Ban Yeo Ryung knows…’ The girl then turned herself to look in this direction.

Before I was about to avoid her eyes, we had eye contact. Her light brown pupils also looked the same as mine. No one could deny that her overall face and features resembled mine quite much.

Gazing at me, she began to crumple her brows. ‘Did she recall a bad memory? But I never saw her before…’ while I thought like that, she turned back and went along her way. The room she opened the door and stepped in was none other than #301. It was where I had been until now and where Ban Yeo Ryung and the Four Heavenly Kings were.

Maybe because I smelled too much whiff of smoke, I felt a little dizzy. Breathing in deeply, I took my step again to my room.

For some reason, I felt nauseous as I moved my steps further. When I went back to my room totteringly, it was very silent inside. Kim Hye Hill and a few girls were sitting in the living room. They became delighted as I came into their sights.

“Donnie, do you know what we’ve talked about while you weren’t here?”

“You know that Ruda was here?! Hey, this is insane!”

I scratched the back of my head in embarrassment then took my shoes off. As I stepped inside the living room, I responded to them while feeling how bright our room was.

“No, Yi Ruda might have not meant that. Ruda makes even trivial words sound like captivating and mysterious.”

“No, you dummy! He speaks like that because it’s you!”

As soon as Lee Mina said that, the pack of snacks in her hand got opened with a popping noise. The fish-shaped chips then burst out everywhere.
