Our Guild's Idol — Chapter 60

TO BEGIN WITH...

...WAS THERE EVER ANYTHING BETWEEN YOU TWO?

ARE YOU SURE HE WAS FLIRTING, AND NOT JUST BEING POLITE?

...

GOOD JOB, EVERYONE!

LET'S GO.

GREAT WORK TODAY.

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING OUT FOR ME.

SEE YOU AGAIN.

IF OUR SCHEDULES HAPPEN TO ALIGN, OF COURSE.

PFFT, OBVIOUSLY!

MAYBE HE'S CHANGED A BIT.

BLOOMIE, HAVE YOU ALWAYS BEEN PRETTY POPULAR?

I THINK IT'S FINE TO KEEP YOUR BOUNDARIES...

...BUT I'D HATE FOR YOU TO BE LONELY.

IT FELT AS THOUGH A WEIGHT HAD BEEN LIFTED OFF MY MIND.

YOU'RE AS COLD AS EVER, AREN'T YOU?

ARE YOU ASKING?

YOU DON'T EVEN CARE.

WHY HAVE I KEPT TO MYSELF ALL THIS TIME, ANYWAY?

MAYBE IT WASN'T THAT EVERYONE HAD GROWN DISTANT FROM ME...

MAYBE I WAS NEVER CLOSE TO THEM TO BEGIN WITH.

I'VE BEEN WORRIED.

IN THE END, FEELINGS ARE MEANT TO BE EXPRESSED.

OTHERWISE, HOW CAN OTHERS KNOW WHAT WE FEEL?

IT'S THE SAME WITH AJIN. NOTHING WILL CHANGE IF I SIMPLY KEEP MULLING OVER IT MYSELF.

I'M WORRIED.

ANXIOUS.

RESTLESS.

I MISS HER.

YOU ONLY CARE ABOUT YOURSELF, AFTER ALL.

DID HE LEAVE FIRST?

DO YOU WANT TO SEE IF JIHYEON'S STILL IN HIS GREEN ROOM?

HOW COULD HE NOT COME SAY HELLO FIRST, THOUGH?

I'M SURE HE'S TIRED. WE SHOULD JUST LEAVE TOO.

TIRED? BUT IT'S NOT LIKE HE PERFORMED.

BEING A HOST AT AN AWARD SHOW ISN'T EXACTLY EASY EITHER.

FINE. BUT GET ALONG WITH YOUR GROUP MEMBERS, ALL RIGHT?

HYEONG.

I'LL HANDLE IT.

AJIN NUNA

SORRY, DID I WAKE YOU?

NO... YOU SAID YOU ONLY NEEDED A MOMENT...

YEAH, BUT YOU SOUND SLEEPY.

OH, I'M FINE.

I GO TO SLEEP LATE THESE DAYS ANYWAY.

WHY?

I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU'RE TIRED.

SHE SAID SHE DIDN'T GET MUCH SLEEP TODAY EITHER.

ARE YOU HAVING NIGHTMARES?

NO... IT'S JUST... A SECRET.

HUH?

JUST AS JIHYEON WAS ABOUT TO SAY WHAT HE'D BEEN HOLDING BACK...

...AJIN BEAT HIM TO IT.

HEY, UM...

YEAH?

WHEN CAN WE SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN?

LIKE, FOR A WHILE... NOT JUST A FEW MINUTES.

I HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL YOU.

<59>

THE MONDAY AFTER NEXT...

PROMISED TO MEET THEN.

MESSy

I GUESS HE'S REALLY BUSY.

WAIT.

AM I BOTHERING HIM ON HIS PRECIOUS DAY OFF?

...YOU KNOW WHAT? STOP. DON'T START SPIRALING AGAIN.

I'M GLAD I CAN AT LEAST SEE HIM THROUGH ALL THESE PHOTOS IN THE MEANTIME.

OOH.

***: WAIT.
