Childhood Friend Who Sees the Future Utters Nonsense

chapter 40



40 – There is no reason for trust

It was successful in calming down the tearful Yuna Han, but I thought it would be difficult to bring her home, so we decided to talk at a cafe we often went together. .

The thought that maybe Hanyu’s concern might be something she doesn’t want to tell the adults on both sides of her family also played a role.

“Welcome…. Huh?”

“Oh, hello.”

Han Yuna, who has swollen under her eyes. When I led me into the cafe, the boss she used to see often looked at us strangely and then tilted her head.

Whoever sees it will think that I am the crazy boyfriend who brought Han Yuna to the cafe to make her cry and soothe her. I just see my eyes

Fortunately, the inside of the cafe was very quiet. There were no customers except for one woman sitting near the counter. So I took her Hanyuna to a corner and sat her in her seat.

By the way, when is the deadline here? Oh, it’s 11 o’clock. You’ve been in business for quite a long time for a neighborhood cafe. I think this will be enough to talk about.

“Are you okay?”

Han Yuna, whose tears had stopped, patted me on the back and inquired about her condition, and she nodded her head like a docile lamb. It couldn’t be the weakest scene of Han Yuna I’ve seen so far.

“Ugh, sorry. I was so surprised….”

“No, I have nothing to be sorry about….”

When the child who had even shed her tears apologized, she was stunned. It was also possible to know that Han Yuna’s mind and body were in a very unstable state just from a series of scenes.

That’s right, Hanyu I don’t think she’s afraid of the night streets. She’s an uncle, or she’s the guy who walked all the way to her house with great courage until I picked her up.

But the fact that she shed tears in surprise when I suddenly approached her from behind must mean that somewhere in her heart, a seed of insecurity is raising her head.

“For now, let’s talk about emotions while drinking something. What would you like to drink?”

“I…. Hot chocolate.”

“Okay.”

After hearing the menu request from Han Yuna, I headed to the counter and paid for a cup of hot chocolate and a cup of Americano.

“The drink you ordered is here.”

“Thank you.”

Fortunately, there were not many customers, so the drinks we ordered came out quickly. When she put it on the tray and returned to her seat, she saw Han Yuna staring at her table, still dazed.

It’s quite severe. I didn’t think it was an ordinary worry, but I thought that this would far exceed my expectations. You should at least prepare your mind.

“Drink something sweet to calm your startled heart. The deadline is at 11 anyway, so we could talk slowly.”

I took a sip of my portion of Americano, letting him know that I still had about two hours to spare. You may wonder what kind of coffee it is in the middle of the night, but I deliberately ordered coffee because I had to go back and do some work.

“Siyoon.”

“Why?”

The title I hadn’t heard since elementary school was a little uncomfortable, but I thought it was proof that Han Yuna’s heart was exhausted and replied back.

The guy who looked at me for a moment with brown eyes twitched his lips and then closed them again. He felt like he had something he wanted to say, but he couldn’t bear to do it.

Maybe it’s because of the ‘nonsense story’ I said earlier that I’m worried about whether or not I’ll believe it. I couldn’t guess what kind of topic he was hesitant to talk about even to me, a friend of 19 years.

“If you have something to say, say it. I said it before, is there anything more absurd than saying that you became an idol trainee through street casting?”

Han Yuna pursed her lips with a troubled expression at my blunt tone.

“Chii, a person is worried all the time, do you have to say that?”

“It’s because I’m worrying about things that don’t work. Don’t worry, I’ll believe you even if you’re a magician from a fantasy world.”

I can tell if Hanyuna creates a hidden camera-like atmosphere to tease me, or if she hesitates because it’s really hard for me to say.

No matter what comes out of this guy’s mouth, no matter how absurd it may be, it’s certain that it’s something he’s deeply concerned about. I’m not so stupid that I can’t even believe that.

Hurup.

The guy, who had picked up a mug of hot chocolate with both hands and carefully sipped it like a cat drinking water, nodded his head alone as if he had finished his thoughts.

Did you mean to say something? As her doubts began to bubble up, Han Yuna’s mouth, which had been tightly closed, finally opened.

“Actually, I might be stalked.”

“… What?”

However, the content that came out of it was quite shocking, so I gave a stupid answer without knowing it.

To be precise, the content itself was surprising, but there was nothing strange about it. I’ve been living as an idol trainee for several years already, and since I’m basically a pretty guy with a visual, I thought it would be possible to have sasaeng fans or stalkers in advance.

However, it was because of Han Yuna’s subtle tone that she replied as if she didn’t understand.

Not ‘I might be being stalked’ or ‘I might be being stalked’, but ‘I might be being stalked’? It felt like I was guessing what was going to happen in the future.

This isn’t some kind of bizarre reason for absence like ‘Sir, I might have a stomachache next week’, what the hell are you talking about? Are you out of words because your head is confused?

“Is what I heard right? So, maybe that could happen in the future, not now?”

“Yeah, that’s right. I want to say something crazy, but….”

“… ….”

As she spat out her self-deprecating words, I smiled bitterly at her. For some reason, the smile seemed to say, ‘I don’t even want you to believe it,’ and it made her feel especially lonely.

It is definitely a story far beyond the realm of imagination.

Hanyu Naga: Why did she worry about not believing in me? She could well have guessed my reaction when she said something outrageous like this.

In this case, you would have guessed that it would be highly likely to be dismissed as a so-called “Crazy sound,” As Han Yuna said. Even if the other person is a close childhood friend who has been together for 19 years.

“Um….”

As the heavy drooling flowed out of her mouth, she glanced at me with her uneasy eyes and touched only the edge of her mug. The corner of her mouth is the lonely smile that she had shown until just now.

Somewhere in my heart, it’s close to that kind of atmosphere, like I’ve given up on trusting you. It was so absurd that it was as if they weren’t even allowed to believe in it.

“So, when is that?”

“… Uh?”

When Hanyu asked me a serious question, her brown eyes, which were shaking with anxiety, widened. She seems to have reacted the exact opposite of what I thought.

“Having that much certainty doesn’t mean you can guess when the stalker might appear?”

“Ugh, yes. It is, but…. Do you believe me?”

As if she couldn’t believe my trust even more than the absurd story she had brought out herself, Hanyu pointed at me with her hand shaking. It’s like seeing a strange person.

This is a disrespectful response to a person who claims to help at best.

“You said you believed anything. Did you hear what people said was a lie?”

“Oh, no, it’s not like that…. Common sense makes me want to know who would believe such an idiot.”

Well, it’s not like that. To be honest, I don’t think I would have believed it if it wasn’t for Han Yuna. Conversely, even if she told the story of Hanyu Nagai to her own parents or Han Yujin, it is unclear whether she would have been able to trust her right away.

I think this is just a reaction that can come out because the person who said it is Han Yuna, and the person who heard it is my age. That’s because the trust we’ve built over the past 19 years is thick, and we’ve reached a point where we can believe at least some absurd stories.

“To be honest, I was dubious. If only you hadn’t shed tears earlier, or if your face wasn’t as deadly as that, you would have thought it was nonsense and moved on.”

“You thought I wasn’t lying because I looked really worried?”

“It’s similar.”

She shrugged her shoulders but shook her head inwardly.

No, actually, even though she said that, I think I would have believed Han Yuna even if I hadn’t seen a series of scenes in reality. That may be a little far from the concept of trust.

Han Yuna can’t lie to me? That’s nonsense. There must be dozens of times this idiot has tried to fool me with lies and pranks. If you believe that what Han Yuna said is right, then I must be an idiot with no learning ability.

Nevertheless, the reason why we decided to believe Han Yuna’s words and worry together is simple.

If this was just a hidden camera set up by Hanyu-na to deceive me, and if the tears and worried expressions shown earlier were the scenes that came out of her full body acting, she thought it would be rather fortunate.

No matter what the outcome is, whether you believe me and become a fool and laugh at Han Yuna, or believe me and worry about Han Yuna’s concerns, it is a fortunate result for me.

So I decided to believe it. The absurd story of this 19-year-old childhood friend who has no physical or psychological evidence.

I didn’t need to think deeply. From the beginning, I had no other option than to believe in Han Yuna.

In such a slightly improved atmosphere, Hanyu My mouth began to open her water little by little. I just nodded my head as I listened to the story in silence.

Now, what remains in my head is how to solve this situation and resolve the concerns of her Hanyu and me. I was only thinking about it.
