"Hey."

"Uh, huh?"

"Bounce on your back, right?"

Somehow, as an adult, Baek In-hyuk's face became colder. The gaze was so sharp that he pursed his lips and nodded. When I came back from my first time trip, Baek In-hyuk obviously didn't know me, but maybe not this time.

"When I was in Go3, I pretended not to know the whole time, and I said, "Do you want to capture and post a pre-existing note like that?"

His eyes widened and he shook his head. It's frustrating. That's not me. I wanted to convey that meaning.

"That's not me."

"You said you should carry it on your back."

"Oh, that's true, but it's not me."

He furrowed his eyebrows and let out a low voice of dissatisfaction, "What are you talking about?" and lowered his eyes to see it in my hand. He fiddled with the tape and hid it behind his back.

"Do you work in broadcasting?"

"Huh? Uh ......."

"I'll see you often on the way."

He bowed his head without answering. I don't know what sins I've committed that make me shake my head like ripe rice every time.

"You'd better ignore him if you run into him."

He looked up and looked at Baek In-hyuk. I wanted to ask why, but I didn't have to listen. Even though I was told not to visit her, she came every time and gave me strange letters and books, and suddenly she asked me who you were and acted like I didn't know her, so it was only natural that I would hate her because she thought it was strange.

"Of course, he doesn't remember you."

Baek In-hyuk turned away with the last words on his disapproving face. It was as if the words had become a sharp blade and were slashing through me.

I remembered the face of Sunjae that I had met in front of the Chinese restaurant. I froze and stared blankly at the lobby floor. It was hard for me to adjust to the fact that the person who had been talking to me playfully until a few days ago became cold. It must have been the same with the pre-existence of long ago. There was a long sigh.

On the way home, I installed the V-LIVE application on my phone. I added the artist's potato exhibition and opened the uploaded videos one by one.

When I opened the video uploaded on the 28th, Baek In Hyuk came out. I was chattering to myself and brought up the story of Sonjae. Sunjae has been suffering from a cold lately, and his eyebrows curled down as if he was feeling sorry for him. This is the same, and opened the next video that was uploaded on the 30th.

Woo Hyun-sung and Seo Yoon-jae came out. Moved the playback bar to the middle. Seo Yoon-jae was asked if her roommate had changed, and she said no, she hadn't changed yet, and she had a crying face. Inhyuk doesn't want to share a room with his hyung, he's in pain, grabbing Woohyunsung's arm and hanging down. I want to write with Seonjae, but Woo Hyun Sung shook his head at Seo Yoonjae's words. Sonjae wasn't easy, too, and talked about Sonjae's sleeplessness.

― Sonjae has trouble sleeping. That's why I read a lot of books to them, and I'm going to die of sleepiness when I read them, but I don't sleep. I'm just sleepy, so I drop my book, but I don't sleep. When I'm doing that, I'm like, 'Hyung, stop reading and go to bed,' and I put my earphones in and listen to music. I'm thinking of recording something like this in the near future.
