Despite her words, the lady cut the apple smaller so it would be easier for Ji Seo Joon to nibble on. When Ji Seo Joon finished eating the apple, the lady, who was sitting next to him, handed an apple to me, who was watching a cartoon movie on the TV.
“Da Yul, eat this too.”
“Yes.”
I took the apple the lady handed me, took a bite, and handed the fork back to her. The lady, who took the fork from me, pricked a piece of the apple with the fork and held it to Ji Seo Joon’s mouth.
At that moment.
“I’m not eating.”
Ji Seo Joon said.
“Why? You were eating well before.”
As the lady tilted her head, Ji Seo Joon ‘thud’ closed his book. At that sound, I, who was watching the cartoon movie, turned my head to look at Ji Seo Joon.
“That’s the fork Moon Da Yul was eating with!”
Then, he picked up the book he had been reading and quickly went into his room.

I remembered then. Young Ji Seo Joon was indeed, very neat and prim.
When I snapped out of my trip down memory lane, the snacks had all been put onto the little girl’s fingers.
“Look at this, brother.”
After showing off to her brother, she raised her legs, plopped her bum on the empty chair next to me, and sat down. Seeing this, Ji Seo Joon gently smiled.
“If you want some, just say so. All you need to do is clean your hands.”
At my suggestion, he nodded and put his ball on the ground. I poured some water onto the child’s hand, and he scrubbed his fernlike hands thoroughly.
I tried to put snacks on his fingers from the snack bag, but the boy vehemently refused and started putting them on himself.
Watching this, it was strangely fascinating.
Ji Seo Joon and I watched the child focusing on putting snacks on his other hand because it was difficult due to the snacks already on one hand, oblivious to the passage of time.
I wanted to help, but I wanted to see him accomplish it on his own, so I held my breath and watched.
“I did it!”
The child had done it. He had managed to put all the snacks on his fingers, and spread out his palm to show off. As I was looking at the smiling siblings eating their snacks, someone looking at the children spoke.
“You guys were here? Ah, I’m sorry. Oh my, did you even manage to get snacks?”
A man who seemed to be the children’s father saw the children sitting in our chairs eating snacks and ran towards them in a hurry.
“No, it’s fine.”
“No, it’s not like that. You came to rest and I’m sorry for the inconvenience… Kids, get up quickly.”
The children reluctantly stood up from their spots. After waving goodbye to the departing children, I turned to Ji Seo Joon who was still glued to my side.
“You’re quite good with kids.”
“It’s not difficult unless it’s a newborn. Their level is the same as someone’s I know, so it’s familiar.”
I didn’t want to fight, even on a day out… Seeing me clench my fist, Ji Seo Joon, who had stealthily stood up, asked,
“Do you want to eat some meat?”
The strength in my clenched fist eased. Meat over charcoal, who could refuse that combination? When I vigorously nodded my head, Ji Seo Joon immediately started to prepare.
“Camping is nice.”
The refreshing air, the trees emitting phytoncides, the sound of the valley stream coming from behind us, and the smell of charcoal and meat.
All these blended together, producing an extraordinary flavor. With more delicious meat than usual and a moderate amount of drinking, it was the best.
“It’s delicious, isn’t it? It was a good idea to come camping, right?”
At my words, Ji Seo Joon, who was flipping the meat, squinted and shed a tear.
“There’s a saying that smoke only goes to pretty people, it seems true.”
At my words, he quickly glared at me with narrowed eyes, but Ji Seo Joon had to relax his gaze again due to the smoke stinging his eyes. I stuck to the chair and moved right next to Ji Seo Joon, diverting the smoke with a fan.
“Next time, let’s grill some lean beef with less fat.”
“Next time, just turn on a portable burner.”
I chuckled at Ji Seo Joon’s words.
While it seemed like there wouldn’t be a next time, it appears he didn’t entirely dislike camping.

After finishing the meat, we added more firewood to the remaining charcoal. The thoroughly dried firewood quickly caught fire. Looking at the bonfire crackling and burning, I naturally lost all thoughts.
“Ji Seo Joon.”
“Hmm.”
Ji Seo Joon next to me was also blankly staring at the bonfire.
“Ji Seo Joon.”
“Why.”
“Did you enjoy today?”
“Yes.”
Ji Seo Joon, extending his long legs in front of him. I tapped my foot against Ji Seo Joon’s extended foot.
“That’s good.”
“And you?”
“I enjoyed it too. That’s why I want to come again.”
Then, suddenly looking up at the sky, there were fewer stars than expected.
“Why are there no stars? Is it because the fire is too bright?”
At my words, Ji Seo Joon also looked up at the sky.
“Normally, if the moonlight is bright, the stars aren’t visible.”
“I see.”
Just as Ji Seo Joon said, the moonlight was unusually bright that day. The radiant moonlight devoured the darkness around it.
Suddenly, I thought of the pale moon, radiating light as Ji Seo Joon, and one of the countless nameless stars surrounding it as me.
A nameless star obscured by moonlight. The moon tried to embrace that star. The star wanted to run away from its brilliance, yet paradoxically, it was drawn to it.
“Where do you want to go next time?”
Ji Seo Joon asked.
At his words, I showed Ji Seo Joon a few campgrounds that Doyira had recommended.
Places with views of the sea, places that are not very scenic but peaceful, places with good mountains, places with views of the reservoir, there were quite a few.
Ji Seo Joon, who was merely looking at the pictures on my phone with an emotionless expression, turned his eyes and looked at me.
There it was again.
That unfamiliar gaze.
However, I was becoming increasingly accustomed to that gaze. And I thought that gaze resembled the radiant moonlight I saw today. Within that moonlight, there was Moon Da Yul.
“Come with me.”
Ji Seo Joon said.

I was captivated by his eyes, which seemed to draw me in. Unknowingly, I had forgotten to breathe as I stared at Ji Seo Joon.
‘Thump.’
I hadn’t realized I was holding my breath until something stuck to Ji Seo Joon’s pretty forehead.
“What is this?”
Ji Seo Joon raised his hand to touch whatever was stuck to his forehead.
“Don’t touch it.”
“Why.”
“It’s a bug.”
Ji Seo Joon, who abruptly stood up and vigorously shook his head. At Ji Seo Joon’s fuss, the nameless bug flew off.
“Did it go? Did it go away?”
“Yes. It’s gone.”
Ji Seo Joon, who was roughly wiping his forehead, spoke.
“Just go camping alone.”
