“Thursday, we’ve got a club kickoff party. You must have received the text, too.”
It was a group text sent by the ski club president.
Se Ah checked her phone and nodded.
“Ji Ho will probably come to the party, right? Wow, I’ve only ever seen him from afar, but now I’ll finally get to have a conversation with him. What about you?”
“About what?”
“About what you two talked about in the car. If you were alone in the car on a rainy day, it must have been quite a mood.”
Se Ah crossed her arms and dramatically shivered.
“Just… you know.”
“His voice is absolutely killer, isn’t it? I heard it as I was passing by, it’s like honey. It would have melted my eardrums.”
“Well…”
Had it been that melty? It was sweet and melodious.
Lee Soo quietly recalled that day.
The glances he gave her while driving, his voice, his laughter. They all came to mind.
But mostly, she remembered feeling uncomfortable, awkward, and nervous.
“Ah, why are you so calm? You were alone with Ji Ho and you weren’t affected at all? I would have been shaking.”
“He’s not a celebrity or anything.”
Lee Soo laughed incredulously.
“Hey, Ji Ho is way better than a celebrity. He’s the third generation of a conglomerate, handsome, tall, with a great voice. And I heard he has a nice personality. Plus, he doesn’t have a girlfriend.”
“You seem to know a lot. If he’s that great, why don’t you go for him?”
“Uh. He’s just too out of my league. If I dated someone like him, I’d be too anxious. Ji Ho is just for admiring! It’d be too much pressure to actually date him.”
Se Ah shook her head and waved her hand dismissively.
At Se Ah’s exceedingly realistic words, Lee Soo chuckled in agreement.
((()))((()))
“Yumi, can you ski?”
Yumi’s dance classmate, Eun Ji, asked.
“I can learn.”
“What if you get hurt while skiing? That’s why I don’t ski.”
Eun Ji looked at Yumi, who suddenly declared that she would join the ski club, with an expression of disbelief.
Ever since she started dancing, she had purposely avoided sports where there was a risk of getting hurt. Even when her family went skiing every winter, she had only ever watched.
“I just won’t get hurt.”
Knowing that Ji Ho had joined the ski club, that wasn’t a problem for Yumi.
It had been hard to get into Korean University, but it wasn’t easy to run into Ji Ho at school since they had different majors.
She was cautious about contacting him frequently, afraid he might find it bothersome. But if they were in the same club, they could naturally meet and keep in touch.
She thought she might be able to make up for the distance that had grown between them since Kim Yeon Su went to England.
Yumi took a deep breath in front of the ski club room and opened the door.
“Hello.”
Yumi greeted brightly as she entered.
“Oh, how can I help you?”
“I came to join as a freshman.”
Yumi spoke, tightly clinging to Eun Ji’s arm, who she had brought with her because she was uncomfortable coming alone.
They said they would welcome anyone who came during the recruitment period, but the atmosphere felt strangely cold.
“Oh, I’m sorry. We’ve already closed recruitment.”
“Already?”
Yumi’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Yes. Because so many people joined yesterday, we had to close early.”
“Oh my! Is there really no room? I really want to join!”
“There were too many students pleading like that. I’m sorry.”
Yumi paled and let out a sigh close to a groan.
Closed recruitment. An unexpected obstacle.
If she had known just one day earlier, it would have been fine.
Why didn’t she know sooner? The selfblame was eating at her and her heart ached.
Not wanting to leave with her disappointment, she looked around the club room. A few pictures pinned on the bulletin board caught her eye.
A moment later, she saw Lee Soo in one of the pictures and Yumi’s face crumpled miserably.
‘Ah! Lee Soo was in the ski club? Ah, this is annoying!’
((()))((()))
Three days had passed and she hadn’t heard anything from Ji Ho.
He had asked for her number like he was definitely going to call.
For a few days, Lee Soo had been constantly checking her silent phone and carrying an umbrella in her bag.
As time passed, it irritated her and she felt strangely upset.
It was Wednesday lunchtime. She was on her way to the student cafeteria with Se Ah.
There was a group of guys coming out of the business building.
“Lee Soo, there’s Ha Jun over there. Do you see Ji Ho?”
Se Ah was craning her neck, scanning the surroundings.
Lee Soo’s eyes also narrowed.
“……I can’t see him.”
Had Ha Jun been on his way to the student cafeteria too? The distance between them gradually closed, and they met in front of the building.
“Ha Jun.”
Upon hearing Lee Soo’s call, Ha Jun stepped out of his group of friends.
“Oh. Lee Soo.”
Lee Soo took out Ji Ho’s umbrella from her bag and offered it to Ha Jun.
“I have a favor to ask. Can you deliver this to Seo Ji Ho for me?”
“Ah, what should I do. I don’t have any plans to see Ji Ho today…….”
Ha Jun said, glancing at the umbrella.
‘Did Ji Ho ask me to deliver this directly to him?’
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
