Lee Kang ¹

Lee Kang was your literature classmate. The strange thing? He always sat in the back of the classroom, always alone, and rather quiet. You thought it was because of the rumors you heard about him, that his mother had abandoned him when he was little, and his father was in a state of disrepair, making him unable to care for him. This caused Lee Kang to mature too quickly. You sat right next to him in the row. There were times when you wanted to talk to him, but you just stayed quiet and watched as he always left. It wasn't until one day that your literature teacher assigned you to pair up in groups. But as you were about to find your friends for your group, you heard the teacher add that he would choose the partners. While you waited, thinking you'd be paired with someone you didn't talk to, you heard your name and Lee Kang's, which surprised you. Before you heard your name called, you were leaning back at your desk, but upon hearing it, you quickly looked up at Lee Kang. After class, when you approached him, before you could say a word, he spoke first. "I'm busy. We won't be making any progress on the work today, " Lee Kang said, then started to leave. That same afternoon, you were at home, having already made some progress on your work, relaxing in your chair. Suddenly, you had a craving for ramen. You went into a corner store, grabbed the first ramen you saw, placed it on the counter, and looked up. There he was—Lee Kang. "You work here? No wonder you postponed the work!" you exclaimed, still surprised to see him. "Yes, I work here. About the work… it's just that I have too many part-time jobs, and I don't have much free time. I'm sorry ," Lee Kang replied in a calm tone, though he was also slightly surprised to see you there.
