Next day

The classroom was unusually quiet that afternoon sunlight spilling across half-open desks, the air heavy with late-day warmth. Seo Joonwoo leaned back in his chair, eyes drifting toward Park Jihoon, who was flipping through notes with his usual focused expression.

“Jihoon… um, Doyun.” Joonwoo said, his tone casual but curious. “What about him? You said he’s… different.”

Jihoon stopped mid-turn of a page. His brown eyes flickered toward the window where a tall figure stood outside in the courtyard Baek Doyun, his long black hair tied loosely, uniform collar undone, hands buried deep in his pockets. The way he stood made him look detached from the world like the wind blew around him, but never touched him.

Jihoon exhaled slowly.

“He’s mysterious.” His voice lowered, almost as if the name alone carried weight. “We never talked much after… that incident.”

Joonwoo’s brow furrowed. “That incident?”

Jihoon nodded, closing his notebook. His tone turned quieter wary.

    His father’s voice thundered:“You will return home.You will forget that school.And you will sever ties with every last one of those filth you call classmates.”The words cut deeper than the slap ever could.The breaking pointFor the first time…Doyun flinched.His expression finally cracked pain flooding through the tiny fracture.His voice was barely audible.“…No.”Baek Guhwon froze.“What did you say?”Doyun clenched his fists.His voice trembled, but he forced it out.“I said… no.”His father’s eyes darkened.Slow. Dangerous.“You’ve grown bold,” he whispered.“Is it that boy? Seo Joonwoo?”Baek Guhwon’s eyes sharpened instantly like a predator hearing a crack in the forest.His grip on Doyun’s collar tightened.“Oh?”His voice dropped to a chilling softness.“So you do care.”Doyun’s breath grew uneven.His father’s lips curled into a cold, knowing smirk.“I only needed to check once.”He leaned closer, voice brushing Doyun’s ear like a blade.“And already, I see the problem.

    After school, the seven boys spilled out into the warm orange glow of late afternoon — but none of them headed home.They had one mission:Find Baek Doyun.The problem?None of them knew where he lived.WellExcept one.“Seungmin… spill it.”Seungmin rubbed the back of his neck as everyone stared at him.“Uh… okay, okay, chill.”He pointed his thumb at himself with a smirk.“I may or may not have… stalker-level intel on Baek Doyun.”Joonwoo blinked.“…Why?”Seungmin looked offended.“Bro. He’s mysterious. I thought he was a killer or something! I Googled him once!”Jihoon facepalmed.“You’re unbelievable.”But Joonwoo grabbed Seungmin’s shoulders desperately.“Where is it? His house?”Seungmin held up both hands, thinking.“Well… not exactly a house. More like… this super expensive secluded vacation villa area on the hill. The ‘rich-people-who-don’t-like-people’ zone.”Daejin clicked his tongue.“Tch. Makes sense.”“Lead the way.” Joonwoo said.Seungmin sighed dramatically.“Fine, fin

    Morning breeze.Crowded courtyard.Students laughing, shouting, passing by like rushing waves.And in the center of itJoonwoo.Standing still.Hands in his pockets.Eyes somewhere far away.Not on the school gates.Not on the classrooms.Not even on his friends.But on a thought lodged deep in his chest.A heavy one.A worrying one.A Doyun-shaped one.The Gang ArrivesSeojun slung an arm around Joonwoo’s neck from behind.“Yo. Earth to idiot.” He squinted. “What’s wrong?”Kang Daejin popped gum loudly.“Bro looks like he failed a test.”Ma Dongpil leaned in.“No… he looks worse. Dude looks like he saw a ghost.”Minsung didn’t even look up from his phone.“He’s probably thinking about Baek Doyun again.”All heads turned.Joonwoo:“…”They could practically see the name hit him like a punch.Seungmin smirked.“Knew it. This guy’s down bad for friendship.”Joonwoo clicked his tongue.“It’s not okay, maybe it is that.”Sero (Reo’s right-hand, passing by) muttered under his breath,“Rid

    Joonwoo took another step forward, worry tightening his voice.“Doyun, what’s wrong?”Doyun finally lifted his eyes to him.Cold.Flat.Like he’d built a wall in the span of a heartbeat.“Nothing.”The word dropped between them like ice.Joonwoo froze.Doyun’s gaze wasn’t angryit was the kind of look someone gives when they don’t want to be touched because they’re barely holding themselves together.But to everyone else, it just looked heartless.He adjusted his bag, expression unreadable.“Don’t worry about things that aren’t yours.” Doyun said quietly.It wasn’t rude.But it cut deeper than shouting ever could.Hyun moved beside him, opening the car door.Doyun stepped forward without looking back.But Joonwoo couldn’t accept it.“Even if it’s cold… even if you push me away…”he said, voice trembling but loud enough for Doyun to hear,“I care. So tell me someday. I’ll wait.”Doyun paused.Just for a second.His fingers tightened around the car door handle.Hyun saw it, that tiny tr

  • Romanticism System   CHAPTER 42 — “Be My Friend”

    The morning sun spilled over the courtyard like warm honey, lighting up the walkway where students gathered in small groups. Laughter echoed. Footsteps blurred into the usual school noise.Baek Doyun walked through it all without looking at anyone tall, calm, untouchable.Like always.Like a shadow moving where sunlight couldn’t reach.Until a voice cut through the noise.Bright. Warm. Unmistakable.“Baek Doyun!!”He stopped.Slowly, he turned.There he was Seo Joonwoo jogging toward him with that stupidly bright grin. Brown hair bouncing, eyes full of sunshine, and that annoying earnestness that made everyone else step back…but always made Joonwoo step forward.Doyun stared at him, expression unreadable.Silent.Still.Joonwoo puffed a breath, hands on his hips.“Still silent, huh…”He didn’t seem disappointed.If anything, his smile grew even warmer.Doyun blinked once.He didn’t understand him.He never did.Joonwoo stepped closer, right into Doyun’s cold personal space, as if the

    The sky was gray when Baek Doyun stepped out of bed.Not storm-gray, not rain-grayjust that soft, muted color of a day that didn’t care whether it existed or not.It suited him.He brushed his hair back, tying it loosely, the black strands falling past his shoulders. His movements were calm… practiced. Like someone who had lived many years inside the same routine, even though he was only fifteen.His room smelled faintly of cedar and cold air.No warmth.No clutter.Just clean surfaces and silence.He chose his uniform, adjusting the collar.Perfect. As always.But his eyesthe mirror stubbornly reflected what he didn’t want to see.A faint exhaustion.A quiet kind of loneliness that even perfect tailoring couldn’t hide.He grabbed his bag and stepped out.Downstairs, Hyun straightened immediately.“Good morning, young master.”Doyun nodded once.“Morning.”In the kitchen, everything was untouchedplates lined neatly, fruit in a bowl, water bottles perfectly arranged.A house built
