Episode 4 — The Rumors About Kang Minho

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5cBAVXWzl

The note stayed in Yujin’s pocket all day.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2c0OHRwmk

Crumpled. Folded twice. Still annoying.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EbFkuHKYP

> Stop looking at me like you’re trying to understand me.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUa9BWztU3

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ2qCkNKSa

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt88ar3bM4a

As if Yujin cared that much.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJU4NNxXdy

He absolutely did not.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9Hl7wwiGL

Unfortunately, his brain disagreed.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrVsIXQR8C

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKetuM7AAAN

“Hey, transfer kid.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03av5C4gPJ

Yujin looked up from his desk.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq09dm28ORZ

A boy from Minho’s volleyball team leaned casually against the doorway.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mKIdUrHhb

Tall. Broad shoulders. Too loud for eight in the morning.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSiTOhyCqy

“You know Minho?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8xoYFXjGn

Yujin answered immediately.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzK7BW5TSy

“No.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEM8dKRzhQm

The guy raised an eyebrow.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZYsApsWCQ

“You’ve been seen together.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADHZJJCy8V

“Libraries are public.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4daGufF6wj

“That sounds exactly like something Minho would say.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAwNkdUWzt

Great.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2vGjEAMyN

Now people were noticing.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuAV4P1g2Z

Yujin already hated this conversation.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjznPFeGvLr

The boy introduced himself as Lee Hyunwoo before dropping into the empty seat beside him.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnwJbJJ35r

“You should stay away from him.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUnwbslug2

Yujin sighed internally.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18PiFw90Ly

Another one.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4b51bw4Wk

“Why does everyone talk about him like he’s some criminal?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xyiDmhpvG

Hyunwoo laughed once.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VG8wxAeak

“Because Minho’s got a bad temper and zero patience for idiots.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9Boww1CMi

“That applies to half this school.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqR3Qqjiy0

“Yeah, but Minho actually punches people.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0Id2FSrV4

Yujin paused.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBioD9pbVV

“…Oh.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsCQlEaG7W

Hyunwoo studied him carefully.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiV3UWX1G8

“You seriously don’t know?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntNX4RCP8T

“No.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8mgCcF4Wa

“He got suspended last semester for beating up a senior.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjEdHTDuBZ

The classroom noise suddenly felt distant.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0wGJlf4Dl

Yujin frowned slightly.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS31Y8SCr6

“For what reason?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpXeCNjCAH

“No clue. Minho never explains shit.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLwKBvZCb7

Hyunwoo stood up again.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacXTCeKLMz

“But if he tells you not to get involved, listen to him.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLDvsDUDqN

Then he left.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfSh8aE71h

Leaving Yujin sitting there with an uncomfortable feeling in his chest.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpZfOBxdKG

—

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiyMiRCN8W

By evening, the sky had turned grey again.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDHQ5mpjep

Yujin found himself standing outside the gym for absolutely no reason.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBffnFlXQ2

Definitely not because Minho was there.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbt7GI6nWP

The sharp sound of volleyball shoes squeaking echoed inside.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlqU5CddY6

Then—

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wOEhLy3Jn

“Move!”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisj8je9F45

A volleyball slammed violently against the floor.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnKECfhuAq

Yujin flinched.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2nyP2jY8k

Inside the gym, Kang Minho looked terrifying.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkbsY0aiAH

Sweat clung to his dark hair. His expression was cold enough to freeze the room. Every spike looked aggressive.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN56GLYAGCL

Like he was trying to destroy something.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsrdQoCklr

Or someone.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCWDNqH6A1

“Again,” Minho snapped.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ICyfQiKHh

One of the younger players muttered quietly:

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡde4xSabeZb

“Fuck, he’s in a mood today…”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyxkBxwsIR

Yujin should’ve left.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnHZbPbgTW

Instead, he kept watching through the doorway.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgz8zQZTYxi

Then Minho noticed him.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgOwSeIy2v

Everything stopped.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAiPtUPw53

The entire gym turned toward the entrance.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WHwbiXqKY

Awkward.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKyjC5IytU

Minho grabbed a towel and walked over slowly.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlj0zpjumo

“What are you doing here?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDzGhejtJk

Yujin immediately answered the wrong thing.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraFXFUrBcV

“Watching.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirxHPzwQTn

“…Creepy.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVeSi1paG8

“You’re the one playing like you want to kill someone.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DiX7WqumD

Minho stared at him silently.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDIIEsVf8Y

Then smirked slightly.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbfEH06Dk4

“Maybe I do.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON1IgA1tGv

A younger student nearby accidentally dropped a volleyball.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB7zrIgkRX

The loud sound echoed.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0XEprVEi1

Minho’s expression darkened instantly.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniJWF6HZnG

“Can you hold the damn ball properly?” he snapped.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPWsxuUsDP

The younger boy apologized quickly.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OZcNg786P

Yujin noticed something strange then.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHNfrVCDVK

Minho wasn’t angry because of the mistake.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVnMUYKLu1

He looked… stressed.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPtFbXSbfm

Like he was barely holding himself together.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWd48EKWeP

Minho rubbed a hand over his face before looking back at Yujin.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3XYP5woYq

“You waiting for something?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cXu20d5e6

“No.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDQLpF4iVg

“Then leave.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL0ktMTEGg

“You’re kind of rude.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKz1OecQxM

“And you’re still here.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd82KlYh6sE

Yujin clicked his tongue softly.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFwhgqfoKt

For a second, Minho’s eyes lowered toward Yujin’s hand.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8iUxQGbrn

Sketchbook again.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsADh4p1qKs

“…You carry that thing everywhere?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXV5UG6d4M

“Yes.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKZ7n0W1j8

“You draw people besides me?”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8htZ7ZEFYE

“Unfortunately.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6S4xZzfay

Minho looked oddly relieved for half a second.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXO0Xt8yunV

Then his phone buzzed.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSAPx3dpbN

Instantly, the atmosphere changed.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL9hub9A4T

Again.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0a2OfoldM

His jaw tightened. His expression emptied completely.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrtpl93Tu8

Yujin saw the contact name flash briefly across the screen:

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl08NEsgqRm

> Mother

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywkaKbl5lU

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9yHSWG6nB

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb9QtrDtvM

Minho declined the call immediately.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx73r2549R

Then another message appeared.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPm6XfvhNBT

And another.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8sQsjv32B

And another.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwO83fOiS9f

Minho swore under his breath.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX1iHpgLb7

“…For fuck’s sake.”

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsmmji6AAS

The gym suddenly felt too small.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMkcKrfMl9

Too tense.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Zfv648eSQ

Without another word, Minho shoved his phone into his pocket and started walking away.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYpR8ZGU4A

But before leaving—

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBy0VcIfNRh

He tossed something toward Yujin.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5aa1L7V53

Yujin caught it clumsily.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAjX9lo0p9

A sports drink.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvM1WoR0mY

Minho didn’t look back.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HkbX8tSak

“Don’t stand around in the cold looking dead,” he muttered.

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3KstTiF6I

Then he disappeared into the hallway.90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1sHZWRd3S
