The memory of being embraced in Jun’s arms for a long time last night still felt vivid in my body. The sensation of warmth that permeated my body while exhaling the hot breath of love in the memories of that day kept coming back unexpectedly.
Every time, I had to shake my head left and right. My cheeks repeatedly turned hot like they were quickly grilled.
I moved my feet to the wooden stairs. From the kitchen, I could hear Jun making something with a rhythmic chopping sound.
To get to the bathroom, I had to pass through the kitchen. So, I strangely welcomed it. I thought my footsteps would be drowned out by that sound.
When my foot touched the last wooden step, I glanced toward the kitchen. Jun was standing, showing his back. On closer inspection, it looked like he was cutting lemons. While Jun’s concentration was focused on the lemons, I quickly moved my steps towards the bathroom. However,
“Why are you in such a hurry?”
Suddenly holding a freshly squeezed lemon in his hand, Jun looked directly at me and asked naturally. I, who had started hurrying without a second thought, felt my body jerk as soon as I met Jun’s gaze, as if he was asking where I was trying to escape.
“I thought you’d come out without the rumpled blanket. You properly took care to put it on.”
“…Someone kept poking around, so I thought it would be better.”
Pretending to be casual, pretending not to care, it was a struggle to keep walking as if I didn’t care about you at all.

“Haru, do you like avocado?”
At Jun’s words, I stopped for a moment and stopped walking.
Glancing at the table, I saw ciabatta bread, tomatoes, and onions neatly arranged with beautiful colors. There was also a bowl with finely crushed avocados in shades of light green and yellow. It seemed like he was in the middle of making an avocado sandwich.
“Yeah.”
“You like tomatoes too.”
“Yeah.”
“And among them.”
I stood still, waiting for Jun’s next words. A faint smile appeared on Jun’s lips as he looked at me.
“You like me the most.”
A laugh followed the unexpected words. Then, pondering what to say to you, a mischievous thought arose.

“No. I like avocados the most. Not you.”
Saying only that, I walked quickly to the bathroom, as if running. I heard Jun calling me from behind, “Haru,” but pretended not to know. Even after entering the bathroom, a small laugh continued to escape.
Since you already know everything, I’m just throwing a tantrum because you want to hear those words from my mouth. I like Kim Jun the most. You’re just pretending to be upset because you want to hear those words from my mouth.
After finishing the shower and opening the door, a chill rushed in. Hunching my shoulders slightly, I went to the kitchen where Jun was.
Already on the table were two sandwiches that Jun had surely made with his delicate hands—cutting, squeezing, and spreading—and a set of neatly placed white milk.
A breakfast table for just the two of us.
“For some reason, it’s nice…”
The sandwich that looks a bit thicker must be Jun’s, so the one that looks a bit thinner must be mine. With a smiling face, I casually mentioned it and sat in the right seat where a small sandwich was placed.
Jun has been busy since morning. Although it sounds like he’s talking about someone else, he’s been busy for me. He even prepared warm water in the bathtub and set up such a sophisticated and lovely breakfast table. The clothes I wore yesterday had already been put in the washing machine a long time ago.
During that time, I didn’t do anything, so I just unconditionally accepted Jun’s affection.
Even when I offered to help from time to time, Jun firmly said, “If you’re uncomfortable with even these trivial things I do for you, you seem like a guest in my house,” Jun was quite clever in this regard. It made me think that just by accepting everything you do, I’m making you happy.

“Thank you.”
Still, I’m grateful for everything you do. That was my feeling. Jun just nodded dryly. It seemed like he was saying he already knew everything, even the effort of saying what was already known.
I laughed silently and tried the sandwich. I wondered how densely the ingredients were packed inside the bread. So, while Jun was wiping his hands at the sink, I secretly lifted one of the two overlapping bread slices.
And, wait a minute.
Where did the pale green avocado go, and Parmesan cheese powder is flying around…?
Just as I happened to make eye contact with Jun, who was wiping his hands with a towel, I called him cautiously.
“Jun.”
“Yeah. What is it?”
For a moment, the answer felt somewhat blunt, but I didn’t mind and continued speaking.
“Um, I think you forgot to put avocado in the sandwich. Look here. There’s only cheese powder.”

To be considerate of Jun, who might feel embarrassed, I intentionally prolonged the laughter at the end of the sentence. But unlike the expressionless Jun, I was the one who became embarrassed.
“I didn’t forget. I intentionally didn’t put it.”
