"KLEIN!!!"
So, Klein got kidnapped by his three friends and he was brought to the rooftop. Not that he knew what they're doing this for but now, his three friends are staring at him intensively. Kinda creepy but it was his friends.
He can't really expect normal things to come from them.
"I saw you last night!"
"...Did your hobby perhaps stalk me when I was not looking?"
When Han was accused by Klein like that, he felt offended and asked for support from Woo Young.
"No! He and I both went out last night to go exercise and we saw you with a girl! Now what's going on between you and her!"
When Woo Young said those, Louis looked a bit down while Han and Woo Young poke Klein and pushed him to spill the tea. Whatever happened last night was an awkward encounter between two strangers and that's all. Klein can't really say anything but he wanted to get back to his friends for dragging him.
"You ask me about what happened between me and a random stranger. What about you? It's suspicious that both of you go out together…alone."
Woo Young and Han realize it and object to it immediately. Louis was finally distracted by the news and laughed at his two friends. No matter how much they denied what Klein was thinking, Klein wouldn't bother to listen.
Time skip to after school, Han followed Klein back home and helped him with his work as always. Han noticed that Klein still typed faster as always but he's making a lot of mistakes. Is there something on his mind? Maybe it's the girl he saw last night?
And Han was correct! Klein did think about the girl last night. He thought that the girl might be a writer like him based on what she's muttering last night. What he saw interesting is, it has been a long time since he saw people use phones to write stories.
"Are you thinking of that girl~?"
"Don't be misunderstood."
"Well, I don't see anything wrong with a guy falling in love. Maybe it also can give you motivation to write romance!"
"..."
Klein did not want to repeat himself. He will not write romance stories. Nu-uh. If he did, the duck at his school could slap him across the face. Han slides his phone in front of Klein's vision but the boy slowly pushes it away. He knows what Han is doing and won't read the novel he recommended.
"It's an isekai romance, alright? Like those that you read. Learn from it. And seduce that girl!"
"...When I read the isekai with romance, I drop it when they confess. And your suggestion…It's 18+ so no."
"But this is the age where-"
"No. It's just you guys."
Han pouts and leaves from his seat. He looks around Klein's room and realises that he does not have any romance manga. Also from the school website, the girls keep making bets on who will be Klein's first boyfriend so that means Klein never dated anyone, maybe?
Can't really count Seong because he never confessed or date Klein.
How can someone not be interested in romance genre or even real life romance?!
That's it! Han had decided to look for the girl and set her up with his boss! Then, he would witness a sweet, beautiful romance! But thinking back to this morning, he saw Louis look down! He remembers what his friend did on the school trip and wonders…
'A beautiful woman and smart guy! My boss is too lucky! Should I help him be with the girl or Louis?! Arghhh!'
This guy literally forgot that people ship him with his boss. Continuing, Han finally got to read the chapter Klein wrote and oh gosh…where did this character come from?! Suddenly, there's a new character in this chapter and she was a quiet character you could say? Her character was interesting but why with the sudden new character?!
"Are you writing this to represent the girl you met last night?"
"Hm…I don't know. She was…interesting."
"And here I thought you said you're not interested in her."
"...She's probably a writer too. I saw her writing on her phone last night and muttering about the book cover."
Now, even Han is interested. Alright, this time, he had to apologize to Louis and root for the girl and his boss. Why? He was interested in two writers' love stories! It sure would be interesting! And maybe they would even have a child who loves to write too!
"Ah then. I am ready to work for her and your future child-"
Klein hit his friend with the pillow he grabbed not too long ago. Again with the romance nonsense. Why is his friends rooting for him to be with a stranger when the possibility for him to meet the girl is low. They're strangers, so last night was probably the first and last time they meet each other.
Han got a message which caused him to pale. He started to grab his stuff and wave his boss goodbye. Now what was that? Klein didn't know what just happened but the god probably had decided to let him off from the devil's sight for a while. He got a message too and that explained everything.
Han promised Louis to study together and he almost forgot about it. Right now, he's reading Louis' invitation to study together. Of course, he declined. Enough communication for today, he's exhausted. He went to his bed and finally shut his eyes.
Han, who started pulling out his books for studies, was relieved that Louis wasn't mad at him for being a little late. That guy is so patient unlike his boss! He leaned beside Louis' bed and felt something from under the bed.
Now, is the smart student a messy person too?
Han pulled it out and went pale the second time today
"...Oh my god- Unsee juice! Unsee juice-"
"Where did you get that?"
Han knew very well Louis knew he saw something he shouldn't see.
"I won't tell anyone! Promise!"

Han: ….
Woo Young: He has been awfully quiet today? What happened?
Klein: …I don't know. Maybe he took the wrong medication today.
