A viral 'heart-fluttering story' from Nate Phan (Korea's drama-heavy community forum). The OP is retelling a romantic moment with her older brother's friend.
She says he's like a real older brother to her, so she tried to act cool and not show she liked him. One day their apartment wall was thin enough to hear everything, and suddenly someone started crying loudly next door. Her family's reaction was chaotic — 'who's gonna go check?? not it!!' energy. Eventually she and the guy end up alone in the hallway and he quietly says 'just pretend you didn't hear it... it's okay' in this super calm, gentle way. She's internally losing her mind (✝조용하게✝ = 'so peacefully' — she's swooning).
Then she screams internally: 'WHY ARE YOU ALONE WITH ME IN THE DARK HALLWAY?! WHY!!' And just as she's about to fully combust, her mom calls her name from inside — she snaps back to reality and they both go back in. Later he casually offers to walk her home when she goes to buy ramen, and on the way she's just dying inside the whole time.
The caption from the person who reposted it is golden: 'Brought this over because it's famous as a heart-fluttering story on Nate Phan... but honestly it made me cringe. Why... WHY is she swearing so much... it's scary.....'
