I’m Not Doing This With A Friend

Chapter 8



Every time Carsion saw Leen, he had a strange feeling.

There was a situation everyday, where he couldn't say anything to her, who tried to make fun of him every day, and only his face was blushing.

Carsion thought he couldn't stand Leen's teasing anymore, but he couldn't say anything.

It's because I didn't want to see or hear Leen's guilt-filled face and apology again.

However, it was true that every time she played a joke, Carsion felt embarrassed.

So later, whenever it was time for the club, I fixed my gaze on the book and did not try to look at her as much as possible.

After such a delicate meeting, it was less than a month after the club was established.

Leen's words, "Because Carsion has a nice face," finally Carsion realized that he liked her.

Only then did Carsion begin to understand the strange behaviors he had done and the feelings he had felt for the first time.

Now that I think about it, I thought it was right to fall in love at first sight.

Strangely enough, I couldn't act with my true personality in front of her.

It took me a while to realize that I liked her, but it was quick to admit.

Carsion pondered dozens and hundreds of times, what to say when Leen entered the club room.

Then, in the end, I decided to come up with a word,‘You're here?' and waited for her nervously.

However, Leen did not show up until the end of the club schedule.

He asked Fjord in a trembling voice, saying, "Why didn't she come?"

"Fjord, why isn't Leen coming?"

Looking at the nervous Carcion, Fjord looked speechless.

What the…?

I've seen him call Leen "Hey" and "You" throughout all the club time, but I've never seen him call Leen by her name.

After realizing that Carsion liked Leen, I don't know what he was thinking while waiting for her to enter the club room.

…You seem to have built up close friendship alone?

"The incident I told you about earlier, it happened today. I guess Leen didn't come because she was tired."

"What do you think of a group of 3 people, one coming late and the other not coming without a word, Fjord?"

"Because we both had some circumstances."

"You've been selling jokes as usual, not real circumstances."

"I don't think it's good."

As if he wasn't interested in the words of Fjord, Carsion was looking elsewhere, and then suddenly got up from his seat.

"It's a surprise. What's up suddenly?"

"I'm going."

"Where are you going?"

"Dormitory."

"You want to go first? Don't go alone. Let's go together."

Fjord lives in the same room with Carsion, so it was a natural suggestion.

However, upon hearing the words, Carsion objected with a mysterious expression.

"Don't come."

"What are you telling me not to come when it's our room?"

“Not our room. I'm going to see Leen."

"Wouldn't Leen be in the girl's dormitory?"

"I'm going there."

Fjord doubted his ear if what he had just heard was right from Carsion's mouth.

I couldn't believe Carsion would like anyone. Now even going to set foot in someone else's area just to see someone he likes.

"Are you crazy?"

When asked if he was crazy, Carsion looked slightly and I made eye contact with him.

"Do you think so? I think so too.”

Wrong.

Carcion's eyes were already half-tasting.

Fjord, realizing that he wasn't ready to understand the words of Carsion, left only one word for him.

“Don’t get caught by other people.”

"Of course."

Fjord, who seemed so bright and kind, was out of the normal range, which was a fact that only Carsion knew throughout the Academy.

* * *

After calming herself down in the club room, Leen went to see someone who would do her request without asking anything.

The person who would do the favor had to be a person who was kind to her and had a lot of friends.

And there was only one such person in a few people I know here in academy.

"Hey."

"Sorry. I don't know who it was, but let's talk next time. Even today, if I'm late for the club, Carsion might really split me in half.’

"Fjord, It's me.'"

Fjord narrowly opened his eyes to the words "It's me."

Soon afterward, as if he had found out the owner of the voice, he asked with a bright smile.

‘It's Leen. You're covering your face with a blanket, so I didn't know. What's wrong? Shall we go to the club room together and have a talk?"

In fact, Lien didn't think he could ask Fjord this kind of favor when she first met him.

He would be like that too, because Fjord, who introduced himself, had a smiley face, but the feelings for me in it didn't seem that good.

Leen noticed it because of his smileless expression that came up briefly every time he talked.

But Leen didn't care much about it.

It's about people who are different from the outside, haven't I seen it once or twice?

It was exactly a day after the club meeting was moved, that I felt that Fjord's feelings had been transferred to goodwill.

Leen lay on the sofa as usual, teasing Carsion with a face without any facial expressions.

Carsion was just being beaten up as usual.

Leen may not have known, but that was the first day after the club's correction period.

The club correction period was just a lie made up by Carsion to cover up the situation.

As soon as Fjord entered the club room, he smiled as if the world was crazy, and lavished all kinds of praise on Leen.

Then she said, ‘Let's get along with each other in the future. No, please be friends with me.'

Since then, Fjord's gaze at Leen was always full of favor.

Leen thought Fjord was very fond of Carsion being teased

Since the day, he has been busy fighting with Carsion whenever he meets his eyes, as if everything he has seen so far was pretentious.

Of course, all the fighting was childish, and fortunately or unfortunately, he was still kind to Leen.

Fjord, which was rumored to be quiet, was only relentless to Carsion.

‘Yes, that dog was a real bullX friend.'

(T/N: what he means here was a devoted friend)

Leen thought he could be trusted now.

Therefore, I asked Fjord without thinking about it, sticking out a recording instrument containing everything about the incident.

"Fjord, could you spread only one incident that happened today to the entire academy?"

In response, Fjord heard of the incident that happened to Leen and said he would be happy to accept the request.

When asked not to let anyone know about the request, it was a little surprising that he would not let Carsion know.

Asking Fjord to spread the incident today was like a safeguard.

The students who had been arguing with Leen would not be able to escape from school with a high probability, but she deliberately made a rumor for one thing.

Let the students who were dissatisfied with those who don't follow the academy rules be angry with this incident.

Well, wasn't it important to occupy public opinion everywhere?

As a result, their expulsion was almost confirmed.

Even if you remain in the academy with power or money, you would not be able to live a very comfortable life if there was a rumor about you going around the academy.

‘Why am I doing something that can be solved so easily… ‘

Leen quietly closed her eyes to the rising memory again.

* * *

Knock, Knock

At the sound of knocking on the door, Leen slowly pulled down the blanket, which had been wrapped around her head, starting from the tip of her toes.

Since he didn't have a friend who was married, he probably didn't come here because he was worried about leaving early.

It must be someone who has come to notify or inform me of something.

In the weeks of enrollment, all of them were guests.

Leen, who was lazy to walk to the door, just tried to pretend there was no one inside the room.

However, the man standing in front of the door woke her up, she was still dizzy but got up from her seat.

"Go out now."

Leen walked without thinking and opened the door.

Bang-!

And I slammed the door and closed it.

Leen turned her head and looked inside the room, wondering if she had come to the wrong dorm.

Because I don't have a roommate yet, it was easy to distinguish everything in the room because it was all mine.

This was my own room.

When she opened the door, she thought that what she saw was an illusion, and Leen carefully opened the door again.

The curly cherry-colored hair that I saw when I opened the door was still in my view.

Bang!

Leen slammed the door again and closed it and quickly blinked several times.

I woke up a little while ago but I was still dizzy.

‘Wasn't this a girls' dormitory? Why Carsion here?'

"Leen."

Outside the door, a faint call for her name was heard. The voice made Leen even more confused.

Carsion had never called my name. Not even once.

But I was sure that face was Carsion, the face I saw when I opened the door.

Couldn't I have seen such a handsome face twice wrong?

Leen swallowed once and turned the doorknob around to make a very small opening. Then she called in a vigilant voice.

"Is that you Pink-Head?"

"Yes, Leen."

He called me Leen again.

She sneaked through his face to find out what had happened to him.

How much time has passed, and in a moment his eyes turned towards her.

Their eyes meet in the air.

No, I thought we ran into each other. 

As soon as the eyes of Carsion met Lien's black eyes, it turned to another place, so it would not have been encountered.

Perhaps.

Leen sighed quietly.

Leen herself didn't know whether it was a sigh of relief that he didn't make eye contact with Carsion or whether it was a sigh about this difficult situation.

‘If anyone found out that Carsion entered the girl's dormitory, it would be a headache.'

Leen was more worried that he would be caught by someone in the hallway than he was calling her name naturally.

She opened the small door wide open, and quickly grabbed Carsion's wrist and him pulled into the room.

Carsion staggered and dragged into Leen's touch like a person who had no will of his own.

Leen, who had even locked the door completely, looked up at the restless Carsion with his head down.

His personality was cute, and his height was filthy, and didn't fit this small room.

"Hey Pink-Head. What's wrong? What happened to you?"

I guess something really happened.

Carsion couldn't make eye contact and was at a loss.

Strange…

This reaction only came out when I played a lot of jokes on him.
