73 – Let’s stay together a little longer

Seasonal semester. In a way, it is a system that can be said to be a golden opportunity for college students to earn graduation credits by allowing them to earn the same number of credits as they would take in a semester during only 4 to 6 weeks of lectures.

Seasonal semesters are almost mandatory for teachers who aim to graduate early or who need to prepare for the national exam in their fourth year like Hansol or Ara.

That’s it. There is nothing like seasonal semesters to quickly complete required liberal arts subjects such as English, Chinese characters, and writing, which are cumbersome to take during the regular semester, and can even be an opportunity for credit laundering.

Even as many repeat students come to the seasonal semester, the advantage of being able to get an A grade is an added bonus for fall-study students.

So, if seasonal semesters are so good, why don’t all college students take them?

Of course there is a reason for that.

Is there anything in this world that has only good things?

Even though seasonal semesters are good for the body and taste good, there are many disadvantages, and if I had to pick the biggest disadvantage, it would definitely be the vicious lecture time and frequency.

If you earn 3 credits, you must attend lectures 3 hours a day, and if you earn 2 credits, you must attend 2 hours of lectures 4-5 times a week.

If you are taking 6 credits, which is the maximum number of credits allowed during the seasonal semester, you must attend lectures for a full 6 hours every day.

Well, this would actually be quite something to do if it were a regular semester.

However, the biggest problem is that seasonal semester lectures, as the name suggests, are held during vacation.

Having to take classes again right after finishing a tough semester is nothing short of torture for Korean college students, who are said to be the laziest creatures on earth.

“Eh… So, about the Brothers Grimm fairy tales…… “

The ‘World of Fairy Tales’ course I am taking is a 3-credit course. You listen to it for three hours at a time, four days a week for four weeks.

Of course, the professor in charge, Professor Shin Jong-cheol, gives us a couple of breaks in between, but I don’t think that’s worth doing.

Because it’s vacation, I think people who don’t listen to the season will enjoy other things during this time, so it’s even harder.

Hyuna Hwang, a female student from another department in my group, sitting to my right, is not even 30 minutes into the lecture and she is just looking at her phone and not even listening to the lecture.

I also do other things like chatting with Soyi a little bit in between lectures, but this girl is a bit harsh.

However, judging from the fact that the printed materials I have are filled with handwriting, it appears that I received all the materials from someone else who took this lecture first.

For some reason, if I were to ask this woman if I could copy it and use it, I think she would gladly give it to me… I didn’t necessarily do that.

Because I don’t want to look pathetic.

Of course, not to Hwang Hyun-ah, but to this woman sitting to my left.

“…… “

“…… “

She is sitting with her back straight and with a good posture. My gaze did not leave the professor who was lecturing. A full three hours.

A complete contrast to Hwang Hyun-ah on my right.

I think Ara is probably the only student in this lecture who focuses so diligently on the lecture.

“Ah… “

“Uh… “

Our eyes met. Since we were sitting right next to each other, we often made eye contact even if we didn’t speak.

Ara flashed sad eyes at me for a moment, then she turned her head first and focused on the lecture again.

I don’t know if I’m really concentrating or if I’m just trying to shake off the distractions.

I’m thinking about it now, but I don’t understand why that professor ordered us to sit together in groups during lectures.

There is nothing during the lecture that requires us to work together in groups…

I didn’t want to create an uncomfortable situation like this, so I wanted Hwang Hyun-ah to sit between us, but that didn’t mean I could tell her about our situation.

“Ah… Well, today’s lecture ends here. And starting next week, it’s time for group presentations, right? We will present three groups a day, from group 1 to group 15. “For the groups that present first, please prepare well.”

“”Thank you for your hard work!””

I barely got through the three hours of lecture today. Finally, the weekend starts tomorrow. It was a very long week.

I took more lectures than this during the semester, but why do I feel so exhausted during vacation?

Actually, I know. Even more than the lecture, I was worried about Ara sitting next to me, which doubled my fatigue.

“… Thank you for your effort See you next week.”

“Oh, wait a minute, Mr. Hansol!”

As soon as the lecture ended, I got up and was about to leave the classroom, but Hwang Hyun-ah caught me.

What is it? I was only touching my phone throughout the lecture…

“They say the announcement will start next week, so let’s have a quick meeting. “Even though we’re next in line, it’s the weekend starting tomorrow, so we need to talk.”

“Uh… “We have a group chat room, right?”

“Ah~ I’ve seen a lot of things go awry while waiting for someone else’s answer in a group chat room. Instead of doing that, let’s each decide on a part and let’s go.”

“Yeah what… Okay then.”

What is this girl? They spend the entire lecture and are enthusiastic about group assignments.

Perhaps the mindset is to just do well in the group assignments without worrying about the exam itself since there are materials written by others.

Even though it’s absurd, it’s actually not a bad thing. Because you are taking care of your own grades without harming others.

It just looks a little shallow.

We started the meeting right where we were sitting, without having to move anywhere.

“Here… I did some research in advance… “

First, Ara carefully held out the printed material she had brought.

We had most of the materials needed for our group assignment, including lists and synopses of modern and pre-modern fairy tales, and related papers.

In fact, other than our group meeting briefly on Monday and talking, we didn’t say anything in the chat room, but Ara seemed to have done all her preparations with the intention of finishing her assignment almost on her own.

“Wow~ Ara is amazing! I think we can make a presentation with just this, right? “Can I just make a PPT and presentation paper without having to do any more research?”

Hwang Hyun-ah opened her eyes wide and was amazed.

She praised Ara, saying that she had never seen such a well-prepared first grader, and suggested that I let Ara do the easiest part of writing her presentation paper.

Of course, I had no intention of objecting to that.

On the contrary, Hwang Hyun-ah completely stopped Ara from refusing.

After Hyuna Hwang and I took care of creating the remaining presentation papers, the meeting ended immediately with me taking charge of producing the PPT and Hyuna Hwang taking charge of the presentation.

Originally, the three of us would have discussed the data research for quite a long time, but thanks to Ara doing everything, it ended very briefly.

“Ah~ 2nd graders have a bit of respect, don’t they? Ara was so good to me… “

I only agreed in my heart when Hwang Hyun-ah said that.

Ara almost finished our group assignment by herself.

Now that I think about it, it was a good thing. Ara did this research in advance.

Because Ara will not be attending this lecture starting next week.

“So you know, that customer… “

A night walk with Soi again today. We walked side by side and chattered to each other about what happened today.

Sometimes we touch each other’s hands, sometimes we exchange laughter for no reason.

While we were walking happily, we arrived in front of the house before we knew it.

If something was wrong, it was not in front of Soi’s straw.

As we walked down the street cuddling, we unconsciously ended up in front of my house.

“Uh… Sol came to your house?”

“Really? What are we doing… ?”

If I had to be specific, I could say it was an unconscious error of Soyi, who led me while chattering in front of me.

But she lashed out at me in a somewhat foolish tone.

“Oh what~? Are you secretly trying to take me to your house!?”

“It certainly seems like Kim So-yi took the lead, right?”

“Ah~ I don’t know about that… ?”

“Do you really have to win like that?”

“If you know, can you lose?”

“Pfft…” “

“hehehehe… “

We burst out laughing at the same time and hugged each other without worrying about who should go first.

The scent of Soyi in my arms or the scent of shampoo mixed together and seeped into my nose.

“… “Sol, your heart sounds so loud.”

“It’s always like this when I’m with you.”

“So, is it bad for your health?”

“That can’t be possible. “Who said that making your heart beat faster because you’re in love is good for your health?”

Actually, I just made that up.

Soyi’s voice was full of mischief in response to my answer.

“Is that so? Then I need to make it healthier… ?”

“How?”

“Bow down for a moment. “I’ll tell you.”

“Huh? Uh, okay… “

I was curious about what he was talking about, so I quickly lowered my head.

Soyi put her face to my ear… She suddenly turned her head and looked at my cheek.

Side!

“Huh?”

“Huh, what do you think? Her heart beats harder… ?”

Her Soyi’s face turned slightly red, as if she was also embarrassed.

There was very little moisture left on my cheek when I reflexively touched her hand.

… I can’t say anything.

It was only a cheek kiss, but it had been a long time since her lips touched mine.

Soyi’s face looks so adorable as she hesitates while waiting for my answer.

“Uh, Sol… ? So how was it… “aaah!”

“…… “

Without saying a word, I placed my hands on her cheeks and held them.

Soyi was startled by my sudden action and let out a small scream, but when she made eye contact with me, she opened her eyes wide as if she noticed something.

After exchanging glances in silence for a moment, we agreed.

She seemed to understand what I was going to do and allowed it with trembling eyes.

She slowly closes her eyes.

“…… “

“…… “

I brought my face closer, but I couldn’t feel her breath.

Soyi was so nervous that she had her eyes squinted shut and even held her breath.

“… “Breathe.”

“Ha… ”

Soyi’s hot breath finally came out at my words.

When it spread across my face at close range, I placed mine on those slightly opened pink lips.

“Hmm… !”

Soyi’s body trembled as if she had been slightly caught off guard.

I gently stroked her cheek as if to tell her it was okay.

I was even moved by the soft touch of her lips that met mine after a long time.

It feels like we are back in time.

So, I was able to find reason.

I reflexively pushed back the lump of tongue that was trying to escape my lips and separated my lips, which had been attached for about 10 seconds.

“Ha… “

As her face moved away, Soyi slowly opened her eyes.

There were tears in her eyes, as if she was overcome with some kind of emotion.

“I… “I love you so much, Sol.”

“… “I love you more than you deserve.”

“What is that…?” “Is it because you want to win this time?”

“In the first place, it is said that men are the ones who should love more.”

“Foot… “

I wiped away Soyi’s slightly teary eyes with my hands.

Soyi’s purified eyes met mine.

“You know… “Let’s stay together a little longer today.”

More than her words, I could tell what she meant by these words from her eyes.

So I was able to hold her hand and nod her head without any s*xual excitement or misunderstanding.

“… Okay.”

Tonight, she did not return home.
