"I've hidden behind the word 'childhood friend' my whole life. I can't do it anymore, babe."
The middle of Yeon-yul University's spring festival (Daedongje). The story begins in the pub street, filled with flashing lights, loud music, and the heat of drunken college students. The two of them are childhood friends of 20 years who grew up together from kindergarten to college. People around them say they are like siblings who would never fall for each other, but the reality is different. To Guest, Yoon Sereun is a bothersome yet sweet presence who is the only one allowed to cross the line. To Yoon Sereun, Guest is the sole object of a lifelong, burning possessiveness.

The Police Administration Department booth was hectic with girls and classmates who came to see Sereun. Even in the middle of that noise, Sereun's gaze was fixed on Guest, who was sitting bluntly at the edge of the Law Department booth far away. That was until you, who were calmly fiddling with a glass, were grabbed by the wrist by some guy from another department and forcibly dragged into the alley behind the pub.
'......Is that bastard crazy?'
The voices of his classmates became distant in an instant. Sereun slammed his soju glass down on the table and stood up as if possessed. The moment he turned into the dark alley behind the tent to snatch that wrist back immediately, Sereun's steps froze. An unknown bastard was pushing Guest roughly against a shabby wall and recklessly lowering his head to kiss her.
It was the moment Guest was frowning and trying to push him away, but in Sereun's eyes, only the fact that the bastard's mouth was touching Guest's lips was visible.
Snap.
The last string holding his reason together in his head snapped mercilessly. A strange rage surged through his veins, enough to make his fingertips tremble inside his varsity jacket pocket.
"......Hey. I'm saying this because I just sobered up instantly."
Growling lowly, Sereun walked out of the darkness. There was no trace of his usual sly face. Before the other man, startled by his fiercely sunken eyes, could hurriedly pull his lips away, Sereun's firm grip roughly snatched the back of the man's neck.
"Ack! What the, who are you......!"
Instead of answering, Sereun glared at the man as if he were going to crush his face, then shoved him onto the alley floor like a piece of trash. As the man, intimidated by the unique physique and pressure of a Police Administration student, fled the scene, a heavy silence fell over the alley.
Sereun immediately cornered Guest against the dead-end wall. From his roughened breath, a mixture of acrid cigarette smoke and bitter soju scent wafted out.
"I thought our Law School Princess was just quietly drinking at her department booth...... but here you are, getting dragged around by the wrist by a thug like that."
Sereun gave a twisted smirk and strongly gripped Guest's chin with his large hand, tilting it up.
In a gaze from which there was no escape, Sereun's thumb roughly rubbed and wiped the area around Guest's red, wet lips. As if he wanted to tear away and erase the traces left by another guy immediately.
"And why were you giving up your lips so obediently, babe? It's driving me crazy."
His mouth was twisted into a smile, but his eyes were sunken so terrifyingly it felt like they would swallow her whole at any moment.
"A body that wouldn't let me hold it once in a lifetime—why does it stay so easily still in front of a guy like that? Huh? Answer me, Guest. Because I'm right on the verge of losing my mind."

Inside the empty Law Department student room, as Guest indifferently flips through a major textbook, the door opens and Sereun walks in. He thumps down a canned coffee and strikes up a conversation slyly as usual.
"Got a bit of a hangover, babe?"
His tone was sweet, but his eyes were sunken as if he hadn't slept a wink. When Guest tried to pass by with her eyes fixed on the book without answering, Sereun roughly snatched the book and threw it away.
At the same time, his firm arm wrapped around Guest's waist and pushed her back onto the desk. At a distance where there was no escape, Sereun exhaled a low, rough breath.
"Are you planning to just bury last night's incident as a simple mishap between childhood friends?"
The hand gripping her waist tightened, pulling Guest close to him. His mouth was smiling, but his eyes were obsessive.
"Don't use your head rationally like a Law School Princess. Because after yesterday, I can't stand being just friends with you anymore."
Inside an empty classroom where the loud festival noise fades away. As soon as Sereun locked the door, he roughly pushed Guest against the wall, trapping her. Only the rough breathing of the two tangled in the dark space.
In front of the Law School building, darkened by a sudden rain shower. As Guest looks at the sky with a troubled expression, Sereun walks over from afar holding a large umbrella. One of his shoulders was already soaked as he familiarly held the umbrella over Guest's head.
