169. weird atmosphere at night

***

There is a saying that humans are emotional animals.

I can’t remember where I read it, whether it was an article or a thesis. We clearly remembered that the article was based on the thesis that creatures are much more inclined to emotions and sensibilities than we think.

And right now, I wondered if that was the situation.

“… … .”

“…”

Sitting on the bench, no one said anything.

Even while looking at each other at the night sky, it seemed as if they were just blankly engrossed in the night sky and countless stars that came into their field of vision.

So I… I came to think that Instructor Adelia was biased towards her emotions.

‘I want you to stay with me a little longer.’

I don’t know the exact reason, but I can only think that she became emotional in an instant, and that’s why she said that to me… … .

“Even though I’m just staring at the night sky like this, I feel like I feel better for no reason. How is the cadet Han Chun-seong?”

At the calm voice, I nodded my head, interrupting my thoughts.

“I feel pretty good too. Maybe because the night sky is clear, the stars seem to shine even more.”

“The night sky is clear… . Certainly there are no clouds today, and the starry night is really beautiful.”

Adelia’s voice continued to speak, and my mind continued to wander.

“… … .”

Outwardly, he had the starry night sky in his eyes, but inwardly, a faint sigh leaked out.

‘Whoa… … .’

Am I the only one who feels so strange right now?

Something made me feel like an idiot. The appearance of Adelia that I saw a moment ago.

Seeing her talking to me as if earnestly appealing… Am I the only one who feels this strange feeling right now?

“Rather than going back and resting, I still think it’s better to be together like now. How about Cadet Han Chun-seong?”

A quiet questioning voice.

As if asking how I feel, I carefully opened my mouth while maintaining my gaze on the night sky.

“It definitely feels like a more meaningful time.”

“okay? I’m glad then. Actually, I was a little worried that I might have forcibly captured Cadet Han Chun-seong.”

“…That can’t be the case. I accepted it because I like it too.”

The more I listened to her voice, the more small ripples continued to arise in my heart.

“… … .”

Continuing the conversation with our eyes on the night sky as we do now. You could see that it didn’t make any sense.

By the way.

…I didn’t feel that way at all.

Even though I was dealing with Adelia, I felt a strange feeling compared to before, and I was a little hesitant to even look at her.

‘Is what I’m thinking really right?’

Looking at the night sky that came into my eyes, I blankly muttered to myself.

I once thought I knew a lot about ‘female heart’. If someone has a crush on me, or if I have feelings, I get a sense of it before confessing.

They say people can feel the opposite sex liking them to some extent, but I thought it was a little faster.

Then, after my guess was greatly missed, I erased that thought.

It’s not good to guess other people’s hearts.

After blaming myself once, I did not easily judge other people’s feelings.

Even if I really felt that way, there were times when I thought about it more carefully or intentionally pretended not to know until the other person expressed their feelings to me.

“Hey… A Cadet of Han Chun-seong.”

“Yeah. Instructor Adelia.”

As I blankly answered the calling voice, my thoughts were cut off.

“now. Aren’t you just looking at the night sky?”

“ah. Did I?”

He answered awkwardly and slowly turned his head.

Then, I could see her with a slightly sullen expression.

I thought it was a little different, but her beauty caught my eye again.

The emerald-colored hair bathed in the moonlight reflected the light softly, and the soft impression of the face and the eyes shining like stars.

When everything came together, even in the middle of the night, she seemed to shine alone.

“When you’re together like now, you have to pay a little more attention to the people you’re with. At least when talking, it’s polite to make eye contact. But even when I kept talking about it, I felt like I was talking to myself, so I almost felt a bit sad.”

She smiled softly and expressed her sadness, and a small smile leaked out following her.

“sorry. Stop because the night sky is so pretty… … .”

“Anyway, take care of me a little more from now on. Got it?”

Then, for a moment, it seemed like he was showing a little cuteness, and my heart was shaken again.

“… Yes. All right.”

“Don’t answer too harshly.”

With a smile, she turned her gaze back to the night sky, and I thought of many things while looking at her profile.

‘How should I… accept it?’

About 10 days, including the period we spent together in the infirmary last week. I could say I got close to her.

They were a little closer than instructors and cadets, but today’s meeting with her touched me much more.

Throughout our time together, it was as if she was sending me some kind of ‘signal’.

He gives me a little more attention and acts without hesitation. As if nothing had happened, I could feel the signs of people trying to come closer to me.

So keep going… .

She made me misunderstand.

Even if I keep trying to calm myself down

‘This is enough… … .’

Maybe Instructor Adelia has feelings for me.

Because he acted strangely enough to feel like that, only my mind was confused.

“…so good.”

When she suddenly expressed her appreciation, I inadvertently flinched.

Then, while looking at the night sky, she slowly turned her head to me.

Sararak.

My emerald hair is disheveled and straight eyes stare at me.

“I asked for a little attention, but now they’re staring at me… … . Cadet of Hancheonseong. It’s a little strange today.”

The two eyes drawing an arc seemed to express another charm to me.

So I couldn’t answer right away.

‘That’s what I really want to say… .’

I felt that Adelia was too distant compared to before.

The one who keeps misunderstanding me is herself, but is she asking me as if nothing is wrong?

But, putting that thought aside, he slowly shook his head.

“Just like the beautiful night sky, I want Instructor Adelia to be a very beautiful person… Oh, I’m sorry.”

Then, without even realizing it, I spat out strange words.

As if to open her mind, the words crossed the line a bit.

“…!”

Her eyes widened as she looked at me playfully.

“Cadet Han Chun-seong really… do you know that sometimes you say something that shakes your heart?”

“Is that me?”

While answering, a ripple arose in my heart again.

“of course. People say such strange words to anyone casually, but among the instructors, I’m the kind of tolerant of the cadets, so I can calmly pass them over. If another instructor had heard such a thing a moment ago, it would not be strange even if he was very serious.”

Glancing, Adelia turned her head and rolled her eyes as if to say thank you. Watching her action, I inadvertently bit my lip.

‘In addition.’

It was really different.

Now, each and every one of her appearances continued to be a sign to me.

A sign that I have a heart right away.

That was not a small signal, but it seemed like a signal to blatantly seduce me.

“ha.”

“…yes? Are you suddenly sighing?”

“Oh, nothing.”

Unbeknownst to me, it seemed that my thoughts would be revealed on the outside.

When she sent me a gentle gaze, I inadvertently met her gaze.

“… … Oh, I’m sorry. I must have thought too much of myself. Cadet Han Chun-seong might be tired too. Then, for today… Let’s finish here.”

Then, as if he accepted it in a different way, he tried to end the situation quickly… .

No matter what I had to say, nothing came out of my mouth.

‘I can’t end this place like this… … .’

I looked at her as she sighed and inadvertently opened her mouth.

“Instructor Adelia.”

I feel like I couldn’t end this place like this.

***

It’s breathtaking.

Adelia was clearly aware that her current state was like that.

“… … Oh, I’m sorry. I must have thought too much of myself. Cadet Han Chun-seong might be tired too. Then, for today… Let’s finish here.”

Even as she hurriedly opened her mouth, her heart continued to beat vigorously, blowing heat through her entire body.

The rising affection has risen endlessly, and it expands its scope as if it will swallow all of my heart.

ㅡLike the pretty night sky, I want Instructor Adelia to be a very beautiful person…

Cadet Han Chun-seong’s voice reflects his inner feelings with a look of bewilderment. It was like starting a big fire in my heart.

…That voice seldom left my ears.

Can I be this happy? I felt like I wouldn’t be able to control my emotions right now, so I decided that I should end this place right away.

‘If it stays like this… … .’

Because it seemed like I was about to cross the line against Cadet Han Chun-seong.

I felt like I was going to do something against him now, to the extent that my idea of approaching him naturally was overshadowed.

And as if my feelings were slightly revealed on the outside, the answer I was supposed to hear from Cadet Han Chun-seong did not come.

Embarrassed, I tried to get up off the bench.

“Instructor Adelia.”

But when I heard a serious voice, my body stiffened.

…It was as if some high-level magic had been applied to that careful voice. A magic that shakes my heart greatly.

He turned around and looked at Cadet Han Chun-seong.

“…Cadet Han Chun-seong. Why suddenly?”

And I ended up giving an answer that was very awkward even for me.

The gaze that was staring at me with a dark gaze was different from usual.

“It’s nothing else, because there’s something I want to ask the instructor.”

He nodded his head blankly at the calm voice.

‘What are you curious about?’

Even though I don’t know why he said that, the fact that he expressed curiosity about me filled my heart with a little happiness.

“What are you curious about?”

After regaining his composure a little, he asked softly, and he suddenly narrowed his eyes.

The car that was a little curious about the change.

“…”

The expected voice did not come.

Instead, I felt a dark stare uncharacteristic of a cadet Han Chun-seong.

It’s as if you’re stealthily scanning my body, including my eyes… . An unstoppable gaze.

It was the kind of stare I had felt so many times.

When a member of the opposite sex looks at me, how do they look at me?

By the way. That’s a bit different now.

‘…why?’

Why is Cadet Han Chun-seong looking at me like that all of a sudden?

even though I can’t understand. I couldn’t react like I usually do.

Even if you have to respond coldly to that sticky gaze or turn a blind eye… … .

gulp.

Involuntarily receiving his sticky gaze, I swallowed my saliva.

My heart was beating even harder… There was absolutely no unpleasant feeling.
