The Law of Webnovels
Chapter 364


.


Amid the subsided atmosphere, Sports Day continued. There were noises of balls bouncing off here and there; the sound of shoes skidding on the hardwood floor came over from all directions.


Meanwhile, we could see through the round window in the middle of the dome ceiling that the rain was pouring heavier than before. To make matters worse, even the sky was getting cloudy. While I heard people asking concernedly, 'Did you bring an umbrella?' from everywhere, this time, Yoon Jung In approached right into our spectator zone and shouted out loud.


"Hey, guys!"


We brought ourselves forward and asked, "Why?"


"It's eleven o'clock! The delivery would have arrived at the back gate now. Please go get it! It's from Lotteria."


Ah! Yay, yay, was it already eleven o'clock? Taking out our phones, we talked about how fast the time was running then drew a round circle over our heads with our arms toward Yoon Jung In to reply, 'Okay!' Waving his hand at us, Yoon Jung In disappeared to the courts.


A few bags of hamburgers were not that heavy, so the Kim twins, I, or other close people could go bring those snacks to our classmates. Volunteering for the delivery, we borrowed some umbrellas to step outside the gym.


Surprisingly, there were quite a lot of students walking outside. Rolling my eyes, I checked each of their appearances and actions. Some looked like couples, secretly dating for a moment during Sports Day, whereas some kids in another direction seemed to have similar circ.u.mstances as us, who were delivering snacks. Then, all of a sudden, I stopped walking.


"Eh?"


"What's wrong?" asked Kim Hye Hill casually. Turning her head forward, she murmured, 'Oh...' as if she knew why I was reacting this way.


"He is indeed a model who draws so much attention even in the rain."


"Very true."


Listening to Kim Hye Woo agreeing to his sister lightheartedly, I pouted my lips and thought whether I should say hi. While I wondered what to do, he turned to look in this direction in time.


The air turned slightly cold due to the rainfall, so he was wearing a lightweight cardigan over his hospital gown, the class t-shirt for Class 1-1, which made him look even more like a real patient. His pale skin and blue eyes might have played some roles in his appearance too.


The guy standing in a distance was Yoo Chun Young.


Just like what the Kim twins had uttered, only he was standing so vividly among the students, who were surrounding the back gate with rumblings as if someone had cut him out of the crowded scene.


His blue eyes, which were on me, widened for a second, then returned to usual. Once his eyes, which observed me nonchalantly, moved away from my face, my cheeks reddened and burned as if my skin got peeled off.


While I bit my lips, Kim Hye Woo murmured beside me, "Didn't he see her?"


"Oppa," alerted Kim Hye Hill in a low voice. Her sensitive character might have noticed the weird atmosphere flowing between Yoo Chun Young and me already.


"Let's go."


Staring at me with her usual calm gaze, Kim Hye Hill pulled my arm forcefully as if saying, 'look at us' to Yoo Chun Young.


Not being alone certainly helped. Being dragged by Kim Hye Hill's arm, I walked past by Yoo Chun Young with light footsteps. I felt a gaze on the back of my head, but I wasn't quite sure.


'Please, let the delivery guy be here so that I can leave the back gate as soon as possible!' I prayed in my thoughts, and thankfully, he was already here. Handing out the containers that got slightly wet with rain, the delivery guy started the engine of his scooter again. Shoving the receipt into my pocket, which should be returned to Yoon Jung In, I took a box from Kim Hye Woo and carried it in my arms.


Once I readied myself to leave, I heaved a sigh of relief. I wouldn't have to stay with Yoo Chun Young in the same place anymore. However, someone's voice pierced through the rainfall and reached my ears. It wasn't from Yoo Chun Young, though.


"Aren't you Ham Donnie, a freshman?"


"Excuse me?" Replying unconsciously, I turned my head to look in that direction. As soon as their faces came into my sight, I became stiff. They were the group of girls who came to our classroom to find me before, of all occasions. Most of them looked pretty, so I could remember them effortlessly.


Once they saw me froze without a response, the girls clamored at me without hesitation.


"I think she is, isn't she? It's her, right?"


"I knew it. Can't you see the look on her face?"


"You are Ham Donnie, aren't you?"


When someone asked me straightforwardly that way, I froze again in surprise. Unable to control the look of my face, I heard a cold voice coming from beside me.


"What if she is? What are you gonna do then?"


It was Kim Hye Hill. Grabbing his sister's wrist, Kim Hye Woo asked, 'Hey, what are you doing?' However, she would not get crestfallen because of such actions. Scowling at the girls with cold black eyes, Kim Hye Hill flung a question.


"I never saw someone asking such questions in a place like this."


As if he was trying to stop Kim Hye Hill from talking without reserve, Kim Hye Woo threw a glance at the girls and dropped a remark, which made me touch my forehead and utter, 'Oh lord...'


"Kim Hye Hill, I told you not to talk to weirdos. Why do you keep doing that?"


"Sorry, I can't get me out of this habit."


Watching the Kim twins making sarcastic remarks as if they were used to it, the girls' faces reddened.


I swallowed a groan since I thought Kim Hye Woo would stop Kim Hye Hill from behaving that way, but I forgot that they both got an attitude. They were twins, after all. Quickly stretching out my arms to them, I pulled the two siblings and shouted, "Yes, I'm Ham Donnie! Bye!~"


Since it sounded like it was nothing to me, the girls would not just pass over what I had just said to them. Their faces turned visibly red under the cloudy sky.


"Aren't they insane?!" shouted the girls.


"Hey, you, Ham Donnie! We have something to talk about, so stay here. You guys must leave before we don't let you go."


"Who do they think they are to tell us to leave? Such strange people, aren't they, oppa?"


Kim Hye Hill spoke that way while switching her gaze to Kim Hye Woo. The senior girls blushed even more. Taking a step back, I murmured to myself, 'Geez, what should I do?'


To make matters worse, those who came out to pick up the delivered snacks at the back gate were surrounding us in a circle to watch our situation, so it seemed difficult to run away from here.


What should I do? Holding each of the twin's arms tightly, I rolled my eyes. That was when a voice penetrated the sound of rain and flew over to us.


"Ham Donnie."


I turned my head. A black cardigan came into view. Once I raised my gaze, the expected face was there right in front of me.


Looking slightly exhausted, Yoo Chun Young uttered, "Come here... next to me." It was the look he always had when he was calling me.


A moment of silence swept the spot. Meanwhile, I stared at Yoo Chun Young blankly.


Heavy raindrops were pouring between us. The corners of the paper container I was carrying in my arms got soaked wet in the rain.


I looked at Yoo Chun Young's hand, stretching it towards me from outside his umbrella. Raindrops were dropping from his white fingers to the ground continuously.


The whispers around us grew bigger. Those gathered at the back gate for the delivered foods talked in an undertone, "Are they close?"


"They went to the same middle school."


"Still..."


'Still...' I perceived the meaning implied in those words sensitively. Those remarks did not faze me since I was used to hearing them even in this kind of situation. However, there were only two words that filled in my head.


'Come here.'
