Six years ago, Haeyeon woke up without having slept a wink. It was all because of Cha Doha, who had not only helped her but also escorted her home.
The next day, burdened with fatigue from the sleepless night, she went to the classroom where Yeeun was elaborately explaining the previous night’s events to others.
“Kim Seungwoo couldn’t even utter a sound, can you believe it? It felt like a long-standing chest congestion had finally cleared!”
“There was such an incident? You should have called me! You know how much I admire senior Cha Doha.”
“Hey, Kim Jisoo, it’s not just you. There’s a line of female students wanting to see Cha senior. But, you know…”
Yeeun, with her chin in hand, put on an exaggeratedly serious face, drawing the attention of the girls.
“Why do I feel like senior Cha Doha is about to be off the market soon?”
“What? What do you mean?”
As the juniors swarmed her, Yeeun declared ‘no comment’ and glanced at Haeyeon. When Haeyeon appeared embarrassed, Yeeun took her by the arm and led her to a corner.
“Min Haeyeon, why did you get off the taxi yesterday?”

“……Huh?”
Seeing Haeyeon’s face turn red, Yeeun clapped her hands together.
“Wow! Finally, my friend is getting into a relationship!”
Yeeun whispered in Haeyeon’s ear, draping her arm over her shoulder.
“Looks like your long solo life is coming to an end, Min Haeyeon.”
Me…? Haeyeon didn’t understand why she had gotten off the taxi. She thought it was just to express her gratitude to Doha. But it took her more than a week to grasp what Yeeun meant.
The catalyst was an unexpected encounter with that man at the restaurant where she worked.
The 24-hour operating restaurant where Haeyeon worked was a popular spot for college students who stayed up late. There, in one corner of the somewhat shabby diner, sat the man eating alone.
Haeyeon recognized him at a glance. Of course, he was someone who would stand out anywhere, but for her, who never had the time or inclination to take an interest in others, the fact that he caught her eye was surprising in itself.
As she served the basic setting, she tried to ignore the fluttering in her heart. She pretended not to notice him and focused on her work, but felt a bit let down when Doha, having clearly seen her face, said nothing.

‘It was night, so he probably didn’t recognize me.’
He must have been drinking that night too. She wasn’t sure why she was making excuses for him, but Haeyeon tried to think that way.
When Doha came to pay after his meal, Haeyeon was taken aback by his handsome face, which she hadn’t seen properly in the dimly lit bar.
“Eight thousand won, please.”
As Haeyeon spoke mechanically, she suddenly mustered the courage. She didn’t want him to leave the restaurant just like that. And so, for the first time, she did something she had never done before.
“Um…”
What should she say? ‘Did you get home safely last night?’ She planned to ask boldly but ended up saying nothing, too nervous. Doha casually responded as if he knew what was on her mind.
“Have you been well?”
“……!”
Haeyeon blushed at his response. Flustered, she forgot about offering to pay for his meal and ended up swiping the card he handed her. It was strange for her, usually so composed, to be this flustered.

“Is there a convenience store nearby?”
“Ah, um, next building over.”
Doha met her eyes briefly before leaving the restaurant. Haeyeon was puzzled but had to get busy as customers started coming in.
Her shift ended at 2 AM.
The subway and buses had stopped running, but it was fine since her boss provided taxi fare every day. It was a ploy to increase sales by keeping the pretty-faced Haeyeon in the store, but she was grateful for it nonetheless.
Even though the weather was warm during the day, the early morning air was still chilly. As she waited for a taxi, a long shadow fell in front of her.
“Get in.”
A voice that was beginning to sound familiar. Turning her head, there he was. Cha Doha.
“……Yes?”
Lacking a proper title to address him, Haeyeon felt somewhat awkward. Embarrassed for some inexplicable reason, she was puzzled why the man who had left after dinner hours ago was still outside.
Unaware or indifferent to Haeyeon’s feelings, Doha spoke his mind.

“Sit in the back.”
His instructions were remarkably brief. Surprisingly, she understood his compressed words. Following Doha’s gaze, she saw a black car parked on the street. Even to Haeyeon, who didn’t know car models, the vehicle looked expensive. She would never have gotten into it if someone else had told her to.
Haeyeon had controlled her actions and thoughts almost all her life. Being alone meant that the consequences of any lack of control fell solely on her, with no one else to take responsibility. But here she was, late at night, or rather, early in the morning, moving involuntarily.
“Well then… I’ll be intruding.”
Without making eye contact, Haeyeon boldly opened the car door. Why she opened the passenger seat door, she didn’t know herself.
‘Am I crazy?’

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
