Rule one of harboring a secret crush: never get your hopes up. Especially if your crush is the nicest person you’ve ever seen. Yeonu’s kind, thoughtful, and gentle—everything that Gyu-yeong wants his significant other to be. The problem is that Yeonu’s nice to everyone, not just Gyu-yeong. Gyu-yeong knows that he’s not special to Yeonu, but sometimes he wants to give in to the little voice in his heart. Maybe all of this does mean something; maybe Yeonu thinks that he’s special, and maybe Gyu-yeong will be allowed to build his hopes up, just this once.
