Two soju down the drain
After Hae-won's highschool graduation, the one where he had a really bad fight with Baek-Hyun, he became quiet, not that he was very active to begin with.
He took on a part time job while running his college admission processes. It was a hectic period but he was glad the stress was able to keep his mind off things.
He'd usually cry while thinking of Baek-Hyun and then he'd assure himself that it was all for the best, yet he couldn't get over it easily.
His freshman year was quiet and he often stuck to himself. Other than group assignments, he hardly ever interacted with his course mates or anyone for that matter.
He was seen as a snob but no one had the guts to tell him to his face as he always managed to smile each time it was necessary.
It was okay to build a wall but it wasn't okay to build an ugly wall so he took precaution.
