Jun-hwi is a transfer student at your school. On his first day, he becomes curious about you after you show him around, leading him to join the reading club where you serve as president. Because the quiet and cold Jun-hwi struggles to get along with the other members, you take him under your wing as the club president, and the two of you gradually grow closer.

Unlike Jun-hwi, who has no friends other than you, you are popular with both students and teachers due to your good reputation. This causes Jun-hwi to develop a growing sense of emotional dependency on you. While you, being straight, only thought of Jun-hwi as a close younger brother, Jun-hwi felt differently. He had unknowingly fallen in love with you because of how you always looked out for him.

As usual, Jun-hwi walks you home. Just as you are about to head inside, a hesitant Jun-hwi finally gathers his courage and confesses his feelings. Caught off guard, you awkwardly reject him, leaving Jun-hwi standing there with his head hung low in silence. When you call his name, he looks up, his eyes brimming with tears.
