I’m Not Doing This With A Friend

“Lien. “So, please do something with your hands first.”

“hand?”

ah.

Only after Lien heard those words did She realize that She was still holding Carsion’s wrist.

She slowly released his hand and put it back, and the warmth that was being transmitted to him disappeared.

His body temperature seemed to be quite high right now to the point where it felt this big.

“Sorry. “In my haste to hide you, I forgot that you hate skinship.”

“… … .”

Carsion completely covered his face with both hands at Lien’s apology. 

“Pink hair, are you mad?”

Lien thought he was angry, but in fact Carsion was not angry.

I came this far with the sole intention of seeing Lien, but when I saw her in front of me, my mind turned completely blank and I didn’t know what to do.

From the moment I momentarily met Lien’s black eyes through the small crack in the door, my heart began to beat like crazy.

When she grabbed my wrist and led me, all my attention was focused on it and I couldn’t resist.

My body and mind reacted sensitively to each of Lien’s actions.

Especially when she just said she was sorry for touching him, he felt like he wanted to kill his past self if he could.

Don’t touch me or call my name. Isn’t this completely crazy?

“… … “No.”

“huh?”

“… … “I don’t.”

Carsion’s voice was weak and crawling. Moreover, his entire face was covered with his hands, making it even more difficult to understand what he meant.

Lien, who felt frustrated at this, suddenly turned to face Carsion.

“sorry. “Tell me again.”

“I don’t hate it… … . “You touching me and calling my name.”

These were words I never thought would come out of Carsion’s mouth.

Lien seemed embarrassed and took a step back without realizing it.

As the distance grew a little further, the reddened ears that he had not been able to hide caught my eye.

“So don’t call me Pink Hair, call me Kaon.”

* * *

Carsion’s trembling voice was as pitiful as if it contained sincerity. And I was convinced by his voice.

That Carsion likes me.

My first thought was, ‘How long has it been since we met?’

Well, it wasn’t something I couldn’t fully understand.

Even though I wasn’t as pretty as Carsion, I was fully aware that I looked pretty.

Of course, objectively, not subjectively.

Just as there is a saying that a face is a possibility, there is no rule that says you cannot fall in love quickly.

It’s not the first time I’ve met someone who likes me.

I knew that Carsion and I would not be able to connect. But honestly, I felt good.

I can’t believe such a handsome and innocent kid likes me. Anyone would be proud.

A line was drawn on his lips as if his embarrassment earlier was nothing.

I approached Carsion, who was still covering his face. Then I put my hand on his shoulder like I did when he first yelled at me not to touch him.

I feel his whole body stiffen with just one touch from me.

When I thought about it, his name wasn’t Carsion, but he asked me to call him Kaon, which was his nickname.

It’s cute too.

“Therefore… … “You mean you don’t hate it when I touch you like this, Kaon?”

“… … huh.”

If possible, I’d like to see your red face as well.

“Kaon. Now take your hands off and talk to me face to face. “There must be a reason why you came to see me.”

“… … .”

“Do you hate seeing my face?”

At those words, he shook his head as if it wasn’t Carsion.

You can’t help but find it so cute.

I moved the hand that was on his shoulder, grabbed his wrist, and gave it a little strength.

So that I can take off that damn hand that is covering that pretty face.

“pee… … “He’s nice.”

Perhaps thanks to my efforts, Carsion’s hand lowered and his face gradually began to appear.

When his red face was finally revealed and his moist wall was facing me,

He looked at my face and his eyes widened in surprise.

In an instant, his expression became so cold that I couldn’t even imagine that he was a person who had always had a shy expression on his face.

uh… … . A cold expression?

I was just about to wonder if I had acted too forcefully due to Carsion’s sinister expression. His low voice is heard.

“Lien. “Did you cry?”

“… … no.”

Even without looking in the mirror, I could fully expect my eyes to be swollen.

But I tried my best to lie to him and pretend it wasn’t true.

I didn’t want anyone, not even Carsion, to know that I cried.

So, I wrapped my face in the blanket that was in the club room and came all the way to the dormitory.

I guess it can’t be helped that I’ve already been caught.

“Lien. “Is it because of what happened today?”

“Why did you cry like that?”

Seeing as Carsion is also aware of the incident, it seems that Fior is listening to my request.

Crack.

Carsion gritted his teeth. He was biting his lips with an ugly expression as if he was holding back his anger.

It looks like he doesn’t believe what I’m saying.

“You’re crying because of those kids… … !”

I pressed my thumb against his furrowed brow. The wrinkles between the eyebrows soon disappear under my touch.

“It’s not what you think, so don’t frown for no reason. It gets ugly.”

1. I said it, but it was too absurd. What part of that face is ugly?

“… … “You said I am handsome.”

“When did I.”

Have I ever said a thought out loud without even realizing it?

I looked at Carsion with a questioning face, and his face quickly turned red again, probably because he was embarrassed to be making eye contact with me.

Is it okay to blush like that often?

Carsion swallowed his saliva once and opened his mouth as if asking something important.

“Lien. “Why did you join our club?”

“I feel sorry for you asking to join the club.”

After listening to me, he put on a sullen expression and pursed his lips.

He did his best to answer even random questions.

What do you want to hear?

“Tell me now, Kaon. “If you came all the way to Geumnam’s district to come and visit me, it must be because something serious has happened.”

“uh… … ?”

In an instant, his face became filled with embarrassment.

Could it be that he just came here because he wanted to see me?

“I’m sure you didn’t just come because of an incident that happened today. “Is it some kind of big deal?”

“… … .”

“huh?”

“Go, I suddenly remembered something urgent I need to do.”

“A thing to do?”

“I’m sorry, it’s so urgent that I don’t think I’ll have time to talk. “Let’s talk tomorrow during club time, Lien.”

Carsion suddenly remembered something to do and hurriedly opened the locked door and went out.

Then, before running away, he sticks his face out the door and says… … .

“Don’t worry about what happened today. “I will solve it somehow.”

I let out a laugh as I looked at the spot where Carsion had been standing just a moment ago.

How are you going to solve a problem that has already been solved?

* * *

Today again, as usual, I was trying to sleep on the sofa in the club room. At that time, I felt someone approaching me, so I opened my eyes.

“Kaon, that thing in your hand.”

Startle.

Carsion, who was approaching me with his back to me, stopped in place as if he were frozen.

“You didn’t bring it to give me something again, did you?”

“no. “I wasn’t holding anything, Lien.”

He hurriedly showed his hands, which he had hidden behind his back, and claimed his innocence.

But I had already seen the subspace briefly created behind Carsion.

… … He insists so hard, but I guess I should just pretend not to know.

“Then I’m glad.”

As I closed my eyes again, I heard a faint sigh coming from a short distance away.

“phew.”

you idiot. I can hear everything.

Ever since Carsion sneaked into the girls’ dormitory to see me, he came every day with something to give me.

The number of blankets he brought already exceeded five.

I heard that sea otters that live in the sea give shells to people as a gift to say, ‘Please be nice to me and not hurt me.’

I think it feels similar to that.

Of course, I didn’t do anything to harm Carsion, so I guess that means He’s asking me to please him.

Moreover, not only did he bring gifts every day, but all of his harshness disappeared. Even when he spoke, he started to look at me with every word.

No, wait a minute.

Isn’t this a reaction like I’m going to harm Carsion?

What did I do? This is a bit unfair.

“Kaon.”

“Yes?!”

What were you doing so surprised?

I slowly lifted my closed eyelids.

I made eye contact with Carsion, who was secretly putting his hand in my bag. It’s a very embarrassed face.

“There’s nothing in my bag to steal.”

“Well, that’s not it… … .”

Carsion closed his eyes tightly and took his hand out of my bag.

In his hand was a branch with cherry blossoms in full bloom.

“Lien. You can’t just accept it until today… … ?”

“… … .”

If someone else had broken it, I definitely would have said something. When I look at that pure and pretty face, my mouth never drops.

“Only until today. “Next time, don’t bother damaging a healthy tree just because you’re giving it to me.”

Carsion held up a cherry blossom similar to the color of his hair and laughed at the words, which had the same meaning as acceptance.

“I’ll keep that in mind. and… … “Thank you for accepting me.”

Shouldn’t it be me who said thank you, not you who gave me the gift?

How can you live if you act like you’ll give up your liver and gallbladder just because you like me?

This world is already so rough.

“You’re probably the only one at the academy who cares about me, Kaon.”

Especially after the expulsion incident.

1. The reason why that incident is called the expulsion incident is because they were all expelled.

At first, there was a feeling that the expulsion might have been covered up and the disciplinary action taken lightly, possibly due to a connection among the professors.

But in the end, they had no choice but to pack their bags and leave the academy.

This was because a recording containing the entire incident was circulating among the students, and even the chairman, who had not personally interfered with the academy, stepped forward for some reason.

According to rumors, even after they were expelled from the academy, something bad happened in their respective families to make matters worse.

For example, EL was famous for its gold mines… … Well, the Viscount was hit by a bomb attack at a gold mine and his cave collapsed.
