Hello, it's Chanhee again!

Since that sleepover, me and Byunghun have become closer friends. Holding hands or wrapping his arm around my neck while walking, even in pulbic because we were so comfortable together. At first everyone thought it was wierd, but now everyone expects it and are normal about it.

Fourth Grade (2006):

~Two weeks later~

"Hey Byung, have you thought about joining the soccer team?" Niel asked Byunghun. We were hanging out at lunch. Byunghun was sitting next to me as usual, with a new friend Changjo sitting by his other side, and Niel and Ricky sitting across from us. The five of us would always hang out together.

"I don't know, maybe." Byunghun said causally, while stuffing his mouth with kimbap that Ricky's Umma made for all of us to eat.

"Hyung you totally should join! Me, Chanhee and Niel are on the team!" Ricky jumped and took his soccer ball from his backpack and threw it at Byunghun, who caught it in time. "I heard you were awesome on you last school's team."

"Hmmm, maybe." Byunghun eyeballed the soccer ball. "Maybe I will, if Chanhee's in it, I'll be too." He smiled at me, and I hid my face because I could feel my face turning red.

"Wow Hyung, you sound like you're dating him." Niel joked, causing me to blush even harder. "By the way, tryouts are on Thursday."

"How about you Changjo, are you going to try out?" Byunghun asked him.

"Nope. I'm more of a basketball person." Changjo said as he took his ball next to him and started spinning it on his finger.

"Hyung, can you walk me home today? My Umma has work today." I tugged onto his arm, and he just smiled.

"Neh! If that means I get to hang with you later." Byunghun placed his arm around me, and we continued eating our Kimbap.

The bell rang, and another boring monday at school was finally over. I placed my binder and notebook into my backpack and waited for Byunghun to finish. "Are you ready to go?" I asked him.

"Yup, let's go!"

We were about halfway from our school to my home. My Umma would never let me walk home alone, since my neighborhood was a bit dangerous. Since Byunghun was tall and muscular for his age, she approves, also since our families are already close.

As we turned the corner, my house was already visible. My house is a small. one story, with a garage, and a short chain fence with a lock door that Byunghun's family had installed for us when my house was broken into. He's really the best.

At the first time I took him to my house, Byunghun was a bit uncomfortable and even a bit afraid,
