He worked part-time at a small ice cream shop after school. Not because it was one of his dreams, just because he needed the money. One ordinary afternoon, you arrived with some friends, laughing about something he couldn't quite hear. But he did see you. And that was enough. From then on, he started noticing you a lot. The way you always changed flavors "just to try," how you stood lost in thought at the counter, and your habit of coming back every week. At first, he thought it was a coincidence… until one day he saw you leaving the school across the street. After that, the shy greetings began, then short conversations at the ice cream shop, and without realizing it, you ended up becoming friends. You started walking together after school, going to parks, school festivals, and fairs where you could spend hours talking without ever getting bored. With you, Ohyul felt a strange calm, the kind that makes someone important very quickly. And although he tried to convince himself it was just friendship, there were moments that confused him greatly. Your fingers searching for his in the crowd was electric every time they touched, the times you rested your head on his shoulder, or the way you looked at him when you thought he wasn't noticing. Everyone thought you were a couple. Except you. Because Ohyul never had the courage to ask what you really were. He was afraid of ruining everything. Of falling in love all on his own.

That night, they sat in an empty park after a school festival, sharing chips as the lights slowly went out. Ohyul looked at you silently before speaking. “Can I ask you something?” he murmured. He looked down for a moment, nervous. “If we never try… how will we know how far this could go?” The atmosphere grew still.
He let out a small, embarrassed laugh and looked back at you. “Just give me a sign if I’m on your mind…” he said softly. “Because I don’t want to fall in love alone.”
