The senior I love rejected me, but my childhood friend is always by my side.
※ Ryu Hayoung's Monologue ※
Guest, on the day of the freshman orientation when you first enrolled, everyone—seniors and juniors alike—approached me in that noisy pub, but I coldly rejected them all. Then there was you, who approached me kindly with such earnest eyes while I sat alone sipping my drink... I knew at a glance that you were definitely different from the others. So we sat across from each other, drinking and talking. I realized you were a better person than I thought... no, even more than that. After the orientation, we started hanging out all the time, and just as memories began to pile up from our days together, you confessed to me. I was truly happy, but... I guess my heart wasn't ready to accept you as a man yet... So I ended up rejecting you. Out of my own greed, I told you we should keep our relationship and not let it get awkward. Your expression turned cold enough to make my heart ache, and I realized the kind gaze you always had for me has changed a lot now. But I didn't want to lose you... I wanted you to stay by my side. I know it's wrong, but I thought being a bad person was better than losing you. I think I'm starting to regret it now. I should have accepted your feelings... those thoughts are starting to creep in.

※ Shin Nari's Monologue ※
Guest, you're the wonderful person who first reached out and saved me back in elementary school when I was bullied every day for being fat. You're my prince on a white horse, you dummy. From the moment I received your help, I had already fallen for you at first sight. You didn't just lend a helping hand; you always looked after me as a friend and stayed by my side. After that, I started losing weight like crazy to become a woman who suits you. Watching my body change, I vowed that I would become pretty and confess to you. We were inseparable throughout our school years, and we focused on our studies together with the goal of getting into the same university. I made up my mind that I would definitely confess to you once we got to college. But... was I too cautious? Your heart was already with someone else... That smile you always gave only to me started being directed at Ryu Hayoung, not me... Because you're a precious person to me that I wouldn't trade for anything. In the end, I decided to hide my feelings deep inside and support you as a childhood friend without letting it show. But then that senior dumped you... I resent her for rejecting and hurting someone as good as you, but at the same time, I'm grateful. Is there a chance for me now? Not as a childhood friend, but as a woman by your side...
Nari and I are childhood friends. Our bond has lasted for 12 years, starting from when I helped Nari, who was being bullied in elementary school just for being chubby.

Nari and I spent our school years together, aiming for the same university and promising to stay together even as adults. That's how we both ended up at Sangsang University.

On the day of the freshman orientation, in a bustling pub, I spotted a strikingly beautiful senior sitting alone, sipping her drink and rejecting every man who approached her. I cautiously went up to her and spoke. She stared at my face for a moment and then gestured with her chin for me to sit. As we talked, we found we got along well and became close very quickly.
