Fluttering Feelings Ch. 45

Seol-a: Oppa, if you go to the army, who's gonna help me with my supplemental studies?
Bro: Don't worry~!
Bro: I've already found some smart dude to replace me.
Seol-a: Who is it?
Bro: Ah, don't sweat it. You'll know when you see! (small text): Just trust your oppa!
Text: Baek Household's second child; Baek Hyung-woo (At 24 years old)
Ji-hwan: How much have you covered so far?
Seol-a: Of course... (small text): "Trust" my ass...
Ji-hwan: Look here. In regards to this formula-

Ji-hwan: Ohh, it's boiling!
Ji-hwan: Eat up you guys~
Seol-a: ...
No-rae: Uwaah...!
Seol-a: ...He sure was one hell of a relentless tutor...
Ji-hwan: We're gonna get all of these problem sets down by this week!!
Seol-a: Still, if it wasn't for Nam Ji-hwan, I would've had a hard time at this university.
No-rae: The meat is so tender~
Seol-a: If I'd gone to a different university...
*stare-*
*chew chew*
No-rae: Why aren't you eating?
Seol-a: Huh? Oh...I'm gonna eat.
No-rae: Eat to your heart's content! (small text): Although I'm not the one buying!
Seol-a: Then I probably wouldn't have been able to meet her...
No-rae: Sunbae, you should eat as well~
No-rae: You're gonna enroll for school right?
Seol-a: Yeah. I have a few things to take care of
Ji-hwan: ......
Ji-hwan: You guys wanna drink? Should we order a bottle?
No-rae: All right! Drinking, drinking~ (small text): It's daytime drinking, daytime drinking!
Seol-a: I think there was ginseng wine on the menu earlier.

*beep*
No-rae: We're going to miss you after you graduate, sunbae.
Ji-hwan: Really? You're gonna miss me?
No-rae: Of course! Everyone in our department is probably going to miss you, not just me.
Ji-hwan: I'm delighted to hear that, for some reason.
Ji-hwan: Go to class even if I'm not here, okay? Don't just skip your classes willy-nilly like before.
No-rae: I don't do that anymore... (small text): That was ages ago...
Ji-hwan: I'm gonna pass on all of my notes to you! (small text): So study hard!
No-rae: Seriously? Lucky me! (small text): Uwah!
Ji-hwan: And call me if anything comes up.
No-rae: For real? I'll try to not bother you too much!
Ji-hwan: Don't treat me like an old fart now that I'm graduating.
No-rae: Oh my...how could an "old fart" be so young and handsome?
Ji-hwan: ....
No-rae: Sunbae..?
Ji-hwan: .....
Ji-hwan: Love...isn't something that you request from someone.
Box: I once saw a butterfly at some small museum when I was young.
Box: It was preserved.
Box: The butterfly's wings were very pretty
Box: But that's because it was already dead.
Box: It seemed somewhat pointless and sad.
No-rae: Okay...
Ji-hwan: It can be such a tragedy how people know themselves so well.
Ji-hwan: Don't you agree?
No-rae: ...I'm not sure I know what you're trying to say.
No-rae: Sometimes sunbae says things that I don't understand.
Box: I've already let go of you several times
No-rae: You always sound like a poet...
Box: And I know that was my fault.
*pat...*
Box: It would've been nice if I could have been a man that made you happy.
No-rae: You're...
No-rae: Such a great sunbae.
No-rae: Please keep in touch even after you graduate.
No-rae: As much as you want...
Box: I...
Ji-hwan: All right...Let's do that.
*tight*
*tap*
*step step*
Seol-a: .....

?: ...So are you saying there was, or there wasn't?
?: ......
Ji-hwan: It's weird, isn't it...it felt like there were empty spaces everywhere
Ji-hwan: Maybe that's why it was so difficult.
Ji-hwan: They say you won't find any fish in water that's too clear. (t/n: Korean idiom that means people won't gather around someone who is too innocent/pure/clean)
Seol-a: Hmm...
Ji-hwan: Baek Seol-a.
Ji-hwan: If there's something that you really want
Ji-hwan: You have be very careful when you're getting a feel for it.
*clench*
Ji-hwan: Listen to your feelings honestly.
Ji-hwan: In order to see what you really want.
Ji-hwan: And if you're still hesitant, just give up nicely. For everything's sake.
Seol-a: ....
Seol-a: Why are you...saying this to me?
Ji-hwan: Well...
Ji-hwan: ...There's a butterfly perched on a flower.
Seol-a: What? What the hell are you talking about...?
Ji-hwan: Or something like that.
*smile*

Seol-a: Wow...this place is lovely.
Seol-a: How did you know there was a park like this here?
No-rae: Oh, that's...because it's near our school.
Seol-a: Good thing I wore sneakers.
No-rae: I know right. But why today?
Seol-a: Tch...I wear sneakers sometimes too, okay?
No-rae: Good job. Sneakers are the best for cold weather~
*step step*
Seol-a: The park is so pretty... (small text): It's so picturesque~
No-rae: Right? It's tranquil, and the air is clean. (small text): It's even prettier in the summer. Since the trees have so many leaves ^^
Seol-a: Let's come here more often.
No-rae: Yeah. Are you cold?
Seol-a: Nope. Not really.
No-rae: If you go up the path after exiting the park, there's a cafe.
Seol-a: The place we went to last time, near the library?
No-rae: Yeah, that one. Let's go get something hot to drink.
No-rae: But the trip might take longer than you think. (small text): About 500m or so?
*step*
Seol-a: That's fine.
Seol-a: If we go together
Seol-a: We'll get there in no time.
No-rae: ......
Seol-a: Wow, look at how cold your hand is! (small text): Want me to buy you some gloves?
No-rae: I'm good...

A/N: I'm sorry for being late. Really sorry ㅠㅠ
