Eighteen's Bed

Chapter 16.4

I placed the ice cream on the low table in the room. Go Yohan and I sat facing each other. The carpet was soft, and the air felt slightly chilly, thanks to the air conditioning. Still, eating ice cream like this? It felt like I was deliberately trying to catch a cold.@@@@

"I honestly thought you'd be number one. Wow, this exam was such a nightmare for the questions," Go Yohan suddenly said in a casual tone, and without warning, a sensitive topic came up. It became clear. What was supposed to be a consultation, Go Yohan had probably come just to say this to me. To say what he really wanted to say. That’s why he was here.

I looked down at the wooden table, avoiding his gaze.

"It wasn’t really hard. It’s just that I didn’t do well."

"No, it was hard. It was really hard," Go Yohan said, pretending to be serious as he sucked the spoon with his tongue.

"Actually, my rank dropped a lot," he added.

"How much?"

"We’re friends, right?"

Sometimes, I was saying things I didn’t need to say.

All because of my damn pride. At the same time, I felt relieved. Go Yohan’s eyebrows twitched, signaling his discomfort. But he quickly plastered a bright smile on his face. His gloomy expression bloomed into a flower.

"See? I’m so glad when you act like this."

"Ah... You’re glad?"

His response felt off. It made me feel like I was just a small part of something he didn’t care much about. I liked him, but I was a presence he didn’t want a change in. I had become just that kind of person to him.

"Yeah. We’re like best friends now. The closest friends. I can talk freely with you."
