Chapter 63: Change

The June mock exam was just next week.

As much as Eun-ha made time for me, I studied harder than usual.

I was just beginning to see what Eun-ha had been talking about... but I was confident my grades would improve.

Eun-ha, Im not sure if this is the right way to think about it-

I was about to ask Eun-ha if my approach was correct.

But she, who had been nodding off for a while, was now fast asleep, her head drooped down.

If she kept sleeping like this, shed surely wake up with a stiff neck tomorrow.

She looks so peaceful when she sleeps.

Gently pulling Eun-has head towards me, it lightly touched my shoulder.

I wanted to briefly kiss her forehead as she slept, soundly leaning on my shoulder.

But I didnt want to wake her, and the idea of touching her while she slept was a bit embarrassing, so I let it be.

I took a short break, browsing on my phone.

Maybe ten minutes had passed?

Eun-ha slowly opened her eyes.

Ah...!

Youre awake? You must be really tired these days.

No, Im not tired at all...

Your sleepy voice doesnt sound very convincing.

Eun-ha ran her fingers through her hair and shook her head.

Awakened from her nap, Eun-ha looked straight into my eyes, her eyes wide.

Then she smiled broadly and said softly,

Waking up to find Han-gyeol here makes me so happy.

I quickly pressed my lips to Eun-has smiling ones.

With a soft pop as our lips met, Eun-has eyes widened even more.

Su-Suddenly...!

Eun-ha, that was to help you wake up.

That was too short.

What-?! Ahh!

Eun-ha suddenly pulled me towards her with a fierce grip and kissed me passionately.

She was no longer holding back in expressing her affection.

Youre like a wild animal now.

How far did you get with your studies?

I finished todays portion.

Wow, really? That was quick.

Its all thanks to Eun-has good teaching.

Really~? It makes me happy to hear Han-gyeol say that.

Im happy when Eun-has happy.

I didnt know what to say.

Beyond words like cute, pretty, and lovely, there was something else.

I wanted to express my feelings for Eun-ha more accurately, but it was so hard.

No matter what I said, it felt inadequate, and in my frustration, I wanted to express my feelings in their rawest form.

Whoa-! Its already ten oclock?!

Yeah, its gotten quite late.

Ah, I shouldnt have slept. I should have spent more time awake with Han-gyeol.

We can go on a date after the mock exam.

Then well have to start preparing for the finals.

Now that you mention it, yeah.

Eun-ha collapsed onto the desk, seemingly quite disappointed.

Ah, I wish I had met Han-gyeol sooner.

Me too. How great it would have been if I had met Eun-ha earlier.

Eun-ha, hop on the back.

Where are we going?

How about a lap around the lake park?

Sounds good.

Eun-ha climbed onto the back of the bicycle and hugged my waist tightly.

Eun-ha, if you hold on too tight, I cant start.

It means to go slowly. Got it?

Okay. Ill drive safely.

Eun-ha held onto my waist more firmly than before. When we stopped at the crosswalk, she hugged me even tighter.

She had been giving me a lot more physical affection lately. It was a bit embarrassing, but mostly nice.

After reaching the lake park, I secured the bicycle in the bike rack.

I wish I could give Han-gyeol a ride too. What a pity.

Its okay. Lets take a slow lap around.

I held out my hand, and Eun-ha grabbed it eagerly.

I remember coming to the lake park late at night with Han-gyeol. It was the day of the March mock exam, and now its already the June mock exam.

Yeah, I remember Eun-ha calling me that night. It was really nice.

I felt sorry for calling you so late, but I couldnt think of anyone but Han-gyeol.

Really? That makes me really happy. Call me anytime when things get tough, like that day.

After pondering my words for a moment, Eun-ha responded.

Okay, I will. But ever since I started dating Han-gyeol, I havent had many tough times.

Really? Am I doing that well? Im glad you think so.

Just being with Han-gyeol... Ive changed. Before, I guess I couldnt express my feelings honestly? Its not that I was always gloomy, but I was clumsy at expressing myself, whether it was with family or friends. I couldnt just pour out my feelings, but now its different.

Eun-ha continued speaking.

Expressing my feelings to others isnt difficult anymore. Its definitely because of Han-gyeol. You always ask about my feelings, accept them, and understand them. Feeling completely understood by someone is so great. Thats why Ive changed. And I like myself now, changed thanks to Han-gyeol, much more than before.

Eun-ha glanced up at me, her face illuminated and made brighter by the moonlight.

Thats why I like Han-gyeol so~ much. Crazy much.

I also really like that Eun-ha likes me. Youre so cute and lovable, I really want to bite you.

That much? Han-gyeol can bite me if he wants.

Really? Werent you the wild animal?

Han-gyeol can be quite the beast too.

So, should I really bite?

Go ahead, try?

No sooner had Eun-ha finished speaking, I playfully bit her head.

Ahh-! You really bit me!

Eun-ha jumped in surprise and covered her head.

I did it because Eun-ha is too cute.

Come here. I want to bite Han-gyeol too.

No way, Eun-ha. I didnt give you permission.

Oh, why-!

I walked ahead, leaving Eun-ha behind.

Han-gyeol, why are you running away again?

If you catch me, youll bite me.

Thats right. I want to bite Han-gyeol too.

Who would willingly let a wild animal bite them?

Ill only bite lightly, so come here quickly.

Instead of running away like last time, I approached Eun-ha, who grabbed my arm tightly. She then stood on her toes and gently pressed her lips against my cheek.

I told you not to bite.

Ah, now I might have to bite a bit harder.

Then give me another kiss.

As soon as I finished speaking, Eun-ha pressed her lips to mine more intensely. We had planned to make just one lap around that day, but we ended up walking for an hour before finally heading home.
