Idol’s Childhood Friend

35 – You told me to do it

“Get up now.”

“… Umm, just 5 minutes.”

“Get up before I splash water on your face.”

“Can’t you kiss instead of water?”

I was so shocked to see him rubbing his eyes and pouting his lips that I burst into laughter.

He may not have recovered much, but he seems to be feeling better to some extent. As I adjusted the towel on my forehead, I picked up a basin filled with water……

“It’s old.”

“Oh, the car!!!!”

I snap my watery fingers at you, who is talking nonsense.

Looking at the reaction, it looks like he has definitely woken up.

“How is your condition?”

“After all, there is no better medicine than a nap. Exorcism.”

You give a thumbs up and smile.

After discarding the water, I measured the temperature with a thermometer and the result was 37.1 Degrees.

I still had a mild fever, but it was noticeably better compared to before.

“The fever has gone down, but it’s not to the point where you can ignore it, so don’t overdo it.”

“Yes~.”

“And since I called the manager earlier, I’m going to the hospital as soon as I’m done.”

“Yes~.”

“Let’s change clothes first. “If you keep that outfit, the kids will think it’s strange.”

“Minah.”

“Huh?”

“Please change my clothes.”

“Puh———?!”

I burst out laughing at this unexpected story.

If I had something in my mouth, it was such an unexpected sound that I couldn’t hold it in and spewed out a catastrophe.

I took a deep breath and looked at him with dumbfounded eyes.

“… Measure your temperature again. “It’s not even 37, is it?”

“I can take care of you with the utmost sincerity.”

“But why did you change your clothes? “What is Judy’s outfit coordination (decoration-type flash game)?”

“Huh. “How do you know that?”

“Anyway. “You should do that much.”

They make threats and give you clothes to wear.

After taking the clothes, you frowned as if you were still dissatisfied and gave me a disapproving look. Not to be outdone, I also gave you a look that said, ‘What should I do?’

In a tense war of nerves, you throw a curve ball.

“We’re childhood friends. “I’ve seen everything you need to see and don’t want to see, so can’t you do this much?”

“Wow. “It’s really so cliché.”

A timely hit to score 1 point.

“After that, you’re not going to say, ‘Do I look like a woman?’ Are you?”

“… ….”

“I’ll give you a clear answer. “So are you a woman or a man?”

Tsk, tsk, click your tongue and put the used items back in their place.

You puff out your cheeks and appeal that you are inconsiderate, probably because you felt unfair about losing the comment……

“I’ll wait outside, so change and come out.”

Leaves the health room without even paying attention.

———Wow, I almost got in big trouble.

Just go outside and sit down.

No matter what kind of prank he played, I would have accepted it without even snorting, but when I admitted that I liked him, a problem arose.

“… “How did I get over that?”

How to respond normally? How do you do that?

Ha, take a long breath and squat down.

Facing the emotions that I hid, suppressed, and didn’t know about, my way of thinking became simpler and I couldn’t control it.

Isn’t that just over 15 years?

Of course, I’m not saying I liked every moment of it, but in any case, it’s not easy to accept the desire that has been built up over 15 years.

For no reason, I want to hold your hand, hug you gently from behind, rub your cheeks together, and……

“Kiss. How do you do that again? .”

I mutter quietly and scratch the back of my head.

『Confession should be accompanied by a kiss. That’s the dream.』

What kind of drama or movie did he watch? He wants to confess with a kiss.

Is that it? ‘Shall we kiss first?’ Did you see that?

“I guess I responded too chicly earlier…..”

I want to get attention from the guy I like, but I don’t know how to get that attention, so I instinctively play practical jokes.

When I was young, I wondered why boys made fun of girls, but now, 23 years later, I understand a little more.

“… Driving me crazy.”

Confession. I really want to make a nice confession, but how can I do this?

I feel sad that I am single for the first time in my life.

+++

“Did everyone enjoy their lunch?”

“Yes!!”

Music room.

This time, it’s my turn to sit in my seat and Chaewon’s turn to stand in front and lead the class.

A powerful response reminiscent of a concert hall erupted, and Chaewon, holding the microphone, continued the story smoothly.

“I was wondering what I should do to make music time enjoyable. Wouldn’t it be better to sing and have fun together?”

I just wanted to sing, so all I could hear was that I wanted to sing one song and then start……

“What kind of person am I? Isn’t it ever? Aren’t you an idol? “I’ll start with the debut song and go straight to the feeling of a short, killing voice.”

As expected, not even the slightest prediction was wrong.

Chaewon shows a grinning smile and immediately skillfully operates the laptop she brought with her to play musical accompaniment.

The tone was so pure and expressive that you might think it was someone suffering from a cold, the expressions were colorful, and the dance moves and comments to encourage participation were relaxed.

Although you don’t have any minor illnesses, I know that once you get sick, you suffer for several days, so I was nervous that singing without any problem might be overdoing it.

Now that everyone is singing along to the song, smiling brightly and enjoying Chaewon’s performance, I guess I’m the only one who’s heartbroken.

A time when I was silently watching the stage from behind with a smile on my face in a situation where I couldn’t enjoy it comfortably.

“Whoa. “It’s still hard to sing alone.”

After 15 minutes of singing the hit song, Chaewon starts talking again while drinking lukewarm water.

“It’s music time after a long time, but I’m the only one who can’t sing, right? So from now on, I will teach you how to sing well at karaoke in a very short period of time. To the teaching assistant.”

Still, just because it’s music class, they also teach you how to vocalize in a small way.

Actually, he was an amazing singer, so he was as good as most vocal trainers———.

“To the teaching assistant.”

“…… Huh?”

At some point, the gaze turned towards me.

“Oh, was it me who was the teaching assistant?”

It was only then that I realized that this was the teaching assistant I had been looking for. He asks me to come out, but I don’t know if there’s anything I can do, so I get up from my seat and go up to the podium.

“The role of a student who came to receive vocal training. I am a very popular vocal trainer. “Do you understand your role?”

“… Do we even have to role-play?”

It’s not home shopping, so why are you creating a product that will never be seen again?

I can’t understand why we have to role-play during music class, but the production team is looking forward to the exciting looks and satisfying scenes from Class 1 friends.

“Yes, come in.”

In addition, Ji-Bae Ji started a random role-play.

“Hello teacher….”

Suppress your laughter and immerse yourself in the role play.

+++

“I hope that all of the Class 1 friends who are with us today will do their best to achieve what they want and become achievers at the end.”

“Thank you for being with us today. “Studying is important, but I want people to know that it is also important to work hard to find out what they want to do during their school years.”

The last period has finally ended.

I got up from my seat while receiving greetings from my classmates in class 1, and immediately moved to the next class where I would conduct the closing interview.

“Are you okay?”

“… Not yet? “When it’s over, you’ll just faint.”

“So why are you dancing during the talk show? “He was so passionate that he was even sweating during physical education.”

“I sang passionately during music class.”

“… “Do you think I’m bragging?”

I finally got the job done.

The heat has risen to a level that can be detected even with a gentle touch.

I told her not to overexert herself, but she didn’t even eat properly and she overexerted herself all afternoon.

I told him to go to the hospital first because he could do the rest of the interview elsewhere, but he insisted on leaving right away after filming this part.

The child is holding on to my arm and staggering.

“Ha…. “You are the real Han Chae-won.”

He quickly opens the door and covers himself with a blanket prepared by the production team in advance.

I guess he liked my behavior like this, and even though he was having a hard time, he looked at me with a smile.

“Still, the kids liked it. “I am able to exist because of the love of people like the Class 1 friends I met today.”

“…… “If you keep saying things like that, I’ll have nothing to say?”

“Instead, you can hug me while I’m shivering.”

Chaewon spreads her arms and shows a smile like the usual ice cream ball.

I close my eyes and quietly look at the waiting figure.

“…… “You said that so casually.”

A strange feeling arose.

“I’m so worried about you right now that I’m going crazy, but you keep saying things like that.”

I tried to hold back the overwhelming feeling, but it felt strange.

“… Min-ah?”

“Did I give too much faith, or did I give too little faith?”

“Hmm?”

“Considering what I’ve done so far, I’m probably the one who didn’t get it… ?”

You, who did not understand my mumbling, tilted your head and gently opened your eyes.

I stand in front of you and bend my knees so that we are at eye level.

Like that.

“You told me to do it.”

I hug you with all my strength.
