Peach Heart

Ju Eunje was thirteen years old. Her quiet life changed when her second sister’s friend, Yoon Kangheon, appeared. “Who pushes someone from behind when they’re tying their shoelaces? You’re such a rude thug!” “Your words are getting harsher.” “Go be a gangster when you grow up!” Every time, he would call her over, only to say he thought she was his friend. Not only did he tease her annoyingly, but he would suddenly show up from somewhere, interfere in her business, and get in her way. But strangely, as the years passed, he still teased and annoyed her the same way, yet there came a time when she somehow felt ticklish inside and couldn’t comfortably meet his eyes. “Eunje, when you cry, your lips stick out this much. You look like a duck.” “What do you mean, a duck? I’m not.” “You’re cute.” “Why are you calling me cute? It’s not like you’re trying to flirt with me.” She wondered—was this feeling just like the tickling touch of peach fuzz that quickly passes, or was it like a peach she would end up eating even though she knew it would make her lips swell? “If you don’t want to look cute, then just don’t cry from now on.” Ju Eunje was sixteen years old. Yes. That was when it began—when she thought she might actually like Kangheon.
