Amazing Girlfriend

  Kim Minsu, A Man Who Seeks Dating Advice Online

"Minsu, I can't meet you tomorrow."

"Huh? Uh...? Why why? Why...?"

Yumin's refusal falls on his ears like a death sentence.

He was so flustered that he couldn't speak properly.

This was the first time Yumin had refused a date.

In fact, Yumin had always been the one to bring up dates, so all Minsu had to do was nod and it would always proceed.

Minsu was extremely afraid of making the first move.

He was very passive, even though he probably hadn't been badly hurt by a girl before.

'Yumin does everything anyway...'

It was an embarrassing thought, but he thought it would be fixed soon.

Someday I'll become a man who can stand proudly before Yumin, Minsu always imagined and was satisfied with the current situation.

'Is she still angry...? This has never happened before...'

But Yumin had been acting strange lately.

More precisely, since hearing the wrong facts about secret dating at the restaurant.

'But I cleared that up properly then...?'

It was a conversation opportunity he barely got after waiting for Yumin to finish guiding Taeyang around the academy.

Minsu thought he had seized that opportunity and explained properly.

'Yumin, actually secret dating is...' 'No, I sorted it out well with Taeyang, it's okay now' 'R-really? Is that so...? Thanks for understanding!'

He tried to find what was wrong by imagining that conversation, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.

There was only happiness in having a girlfriend who understood his intentions before he spoke.

"No, it's just that you made plans too suddenly..."

"Ah... Was I too... rushed...?"

He had even taken the initiative to suggest this date as a gesture of reconciliation.

It was the first date suggestion of his life, but he didn't expect it to crumble so miserably.

Had Yumin always set dates slowly, not quickly?

"Th-then how about next weekend...? Movie...! Let's watch a movie!"

His voice suddenly got louder at the thought of watching a movie together, but it didn't matter.

'Watching a movie with Yumin! Eating popcorn together and our hands touching!'

Minsu was happy just imagining it.

"Movie? What movie?"

"Lightning Hammer Man 4! This movie is about..."

"Wow... Minsu, I've already seen that..."

This hasn't been released yet... He was about to say that but thought for a moment.

Yumin wasn't just well-off in the ordinary sense.

She didn't show it off, but several buildings in the bustling area in front of Victory Academy were owned by Yumin's family.

'At that level, couldn't she watch next month's movie in advance?'

He had planned to explain the history of Lightning Hammer Man and its grand worldview while watching the movie together.

He licked his lips, feeling unnecessarily disappointed.

If they could have talked about this topic, their relationship would have recovered quickly...

"Th-then when should we postpone this date...?"

He hurriedly looked for a calendar.

Victory Academy gets extremely busy from April.

If the first semester in March focused on theory classes to help new students adjust, practical training starts from April.

On days when they enter Gates, they'd be too tired to do anything.

Meeting to comfort each other before digesting such an intense schedule would have been ideal.

"Wouldn't it be difficult for a while? Um... but do we have to keep talking?"

Her tone was cold. Moreover, it sounded like she had busy matters and found it hard to continue the call.

"Ah... are you busy these days?"

"Yeah... sorry..."

"Then you can't meet me not because you don't want to but because you're busy, right?"

He blurted out words without breathing, in a rush.

It was a thought that had been stuck in his head for a while.

The internet said such things should be spoken about immediately to resolve them.

'Imagination is what ruins relationships'

He had made an unnecessary misunderstanding.

Lately, her KakaoTalk replies had been getting slower, and there were cases of her reading messages without replying.

So he wondered, is she avoiding me? Has she come to dislike me? But it was simply because she was busy!

"Of course, why would you think that"

"He... hehe... sorry..."

Minsu breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing Yumin's scolding words, his worries melted away.

He had been feeling disappointed lately that Yumin wasn't saying she loved him or holding his hand.

He had never held her hand first since she held his hand when confessing. Why? Because Yumin always did it!

"Wow, we've been talking for so long. My cheeks are so hot, Minsu."

"Ah..., oh then we should hang up! What are you doing now?"

It was ambiguous to say they had talked for a long time.

10 minutes is long if you think it's long, and short if you think it's short.

But people can think differently, so it could be that way.

'She used to say even two hours was short...'

Yumin must really be busy.

The book said that a man who hangs up decisively when it's time to end the call is sweet.

"Me? I'm going to sleep now"

Yumin seemed to be sleeping early these days. She said she sleeps around 6 PM.

The saying that beauties are sleepyheads was true. He should gift her pomegranates later.

"You must be tired... Good night, Yumin! I love you!"

He expected to hear a sweet "I love you" from the other end of the line soon.

It was standard for lovers to shoot love expressions at each other at the end of a call.

'Huh?'

But something was strange this time.

No matter how long he waited, he couldn't hear anything.

"Uh... she hung up..."

Looking at his phone screen, the call had already ended.

Yumin had ended the call as soon as she said she was going to sleep.

"She must be... really tired..."

He suddenly felt depressed.

It was a call after a whole day, but it was too dry.

Could it be that Yumin's love had cooled?

'No way, that can't be... I'm so sweet...'

Objectively thinking, isn't someone like me extremely handsome and dependable?

Since Yumin could recognize beauty at a glance, her eyes must be absolutely right.

Minsu thought his perspective was very objective.

"Can't even go on a date... couldn't even hear 'I love you'..."

Although things should be good from now on since we resolved it well, tears welled up for no reason.

The more he imagined, the more it flowed in a bad direction, but his head kept drawing pictures.

He browsed the internet.

If he couldn't solve it himself, he needed to borrow the power of experts.

Whenever he had worries or problems about dating, he always posted questions to resolve them.

[I have concerns with my girlfriend] - SweetCadet

-This is SweetCadet's 2314th worry post-

My girlfriend rejected my date proposal...

This has never happened before...

Actually, this was my first time suggesting a date....

Lately, her replies have become infrequent, as if she's busy.

All this happened in just one day...

I know I'm partly at fault, but could it have such a big impact?

What should I do, please tell me!

'PureLoveDiaryAuthor, please answer today too...!'

At first, when he posted questions, many people would answer.

But they all left one by one, saying things like don't act out a concept, or is there really someone like this?

That's when a user called PureLoveDiaryAuthor appeared like a comet.

Their knowledge answer grade was even Solar, which meant they were almost an internet knowledge veteran.

Moreover, it wasn't just any field, but a Solar grade in dating advice answers.

They must surely be someone with tremendous dating experience.

{Ding! An answer has arrived for [I have concerns with my girlfriend].}

"Ooh... so fast! As expected of PureLoveDiaryAuthor!!!"

Words burst out without him realizing, but there was no one to hear anyway.

Minsu quickly entered the knowledge answer screen.

Answer to [I have concerns with my girlfriend] - PureLoveDiaryAuthor [Solar]

Maybe she's playing hard to get? There's a saying that you should ask a woman two or three times.

From what I see, she loves you too much... she's scared to accept a date right away.

The fear of love? Something like that...

Let me tell you about my past experience.

I have an SSS-grade childhood friend in the province.

When I caught a cold, she got angry at me...

Well... but then she made me porridge, didn't she?

Women are truly incomprehensible creatures.

Even after I recovered from the cold, she got angry again and said now that I'm better, let's go out.

It's common sense to rest a bit after recovering from a cold, but she ignored that too.

I had no choice but to go out, and well... the neighborhood people applauded seeing my childhood friend and me on a date.

They even gave us a standing ovation... Well, it felt good, I guess...

This is my personal experience, well... do you get the feeling? It's just...

Women are originally like that. They say they don't like it but they do, and sometimes they seem angry but they like it...

If SweetCadet considers these aspects well, you could become like me? Well...

That might be too much though ㅋㅋ Cheer up, I guess.

"As expected... PureLoveDiaryAuthor is in a different class..."

They were living in a completely different world from me. They're so famous that the number of likes goes up as soon as they answer.

It was really reliable information. If you couldn't trust information like this, there would be nothing to believe in this world.

"So Yumin was playing hard to get...? That's kind of cute..."

There was no time to be like this.

He had to put it into action right away and match the rhythm of his adorable girlfriend.

>Yumin, what are you doing? 22:59 [1]

>I've been thinking a lot, and what do you think about us meeting tomorrow after all? 22:59 [1]

She'll reply soon, right? Minsu felt a strong intuition.

The number 1 would soon disappear, and a sweet message would tickle his eyes!

>Yumin? 23:04 [1]

He waited for 5 minutes, but there was no contact.

It really seemed like she was sleeping, so he was about to call but held back.

Wouldn't she reply when she wakes up tomorrow morning?

"Tsk... disappointing.... huh?"

Wanting to see Yumin's face one last time, he clicked on Yumin's profile picture.

But the profile picture changed in real-time.

Originally it was a full-body shot of her reading a book, but now it was a face shot with her hands framing her face.

The first thought was that it looked pretty, but soon doubt set in.

'Can you change your profile picture while sleeping...?'

Is there a scheduling feature I don't know about? Or is she so focused on the photo that she can't see my messages?

His thoughts chained one after another until reaching the worst case.

'No way... did she ignore my message without reading it...?'

Even while thinking it couldn't be, tears welled up again.

The condition for implementing PureLoveDiaryAuthor's advice was if there was a reaction from the girlfriend.

But what should he do if there's no reply? Isn't this a breakup? Already?

After just 100 days of dating? He had even decided on names for the children they would have after marriage.

Suddenly, he felt like everything was going dark. He had to find another way.

Minsu searched through his phone contacts.

'It should be here, it should be...'

Problems that couldn't be solved by internet dating experts should be solved by real-life dating experts.

The only real-life dating expert Minsu knew!

That was...

++++

'Me, huh.'

Minsu's real-life dating expert was me.

Minsu explained the whole situation while crying.

"Taeyang, what should I really do? Tell me the right answer..."

"Uh... hmm..."

I really had to think hard.

'At this rate, won't the quest clear itself?'

This guy was more amazing than I thought.

I thought they had broken up or something, but the reason he was whining was simply because of a rejected date.

Of course, it wasn't just the date rejection, but that was the start.

"Then shall we meet tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow? Sh-should we? I'll come to your room!"

It seemed good to do more foolish things while giving dating coaching in person.

Coincidentally, Minsu also said he would actively do so and bring food.

Just then, a message arrived.

[So Yumin]

>Taeyang♥♥ I'm coming to your dorm tomorrow♥~♥

>If you refuse, Yumin will cry ㅠ.ㅠ♥♥♥

>I'll really be upset if you don't reply, so make sure to reply as soon as you read this♥~♥

"Um... Minsu, I'm sorry but something suddenly came up..."

"Huh? Uh... are you busy too?"

I could hear Minsu's flustered voice.

Well, it would be confusing to be rejected because someone's busy and then have this happen again.

But I had no choice.

"Then shall we watch a movie together later? How about Lightning Hammer Man 4?"

Minsu seemed to have sorted out his emotions quickly and mentioned the next plan.

He suggested talking while watching the movie.

And at the same time, another message from Yumin arrived.

>Let's watch a movie in the dorm!♥ㅁ♥!

>Lightning Hammer Man 4!♥

>Did you know? It's not released yet, but I got it in advance to watch with you y////y

>Let's watch together♥♥♥ And make sure to reply♥

"I've already seen that..."

"Uh... this hasn't been released yet..."

An awkward silence fell over the phone.
