[Episode 5] Strange Stories

School is weird.

One rumor can make a person feel like a completely different person.

And… the name at the center of it all now is

Kim. Min. Gyu.

 

 

"That kid, I sent someone to the hospital before."

During break time, a sound is heard from behind.

"Don't you know that no one can talk to him because he's so scary?

"That's because I didn't say anything. There are more than a few kids who got hit by him."

"But isn't it funny? That guy is protecting the housekeeper's daughter."

My hand holding the pen tightened.

I tried to pretend not to know, not to hear, but…

Those words kept touching my heart.

 

Min-gyu said that?

Hospital? Violence?

That kid?

 

He's expressionless, reserved, a bit cranky, and sometimes crosses the line—

I received food from that kind of kid,

We sat across from each other at the table,

I also heard quiet worries,

I also heard people say, “You don’t look okay.”

A kid like that hit someone?

Really?

 

 

 

 

 

Even after the ceremony that day was over, I couldn't get up from my seat easily.

Min-gyu had already packed his bag and left.

The people left in the classroom were still repeating the same story.

 

"What will he do to her this time?"

"Why on earth are you doing that? You're not the type to stand out."

"When Min-gyu gets into something like that, he's the type to just charge forward.

"It happened before too. I was protecting a friend and we got into a fight."

 

For the first time that day,

I imagined Min-gyu as a 'scary person'.

 

 

however…

I couldn't think of anything.

 

Min-gyu in my memories,

The person who passed by me in the living room with sleepy eyes,

He was the one who pushed chopsticks towards me at the table.

On the sofa with only one earphone plugged in

He was a kid who was quietly watching TV.

 

How about that face

Can you overlap it with the word 'violent'?

I'm not good at it yet.

 

 

The day I came back home.

Min-gyu was in the room as if nothing had happened.

The door was slightly open,

I kept looking through the crack in the door while doing my homework in the living room.

 

Without saying anything,

Without any action.

But then, suddenly, he said.

"Why do you keep looking at me?"

 

I was so startled that I dropped my pen.

“…Oh, sorry. No.”

He looks at me.

"What's wrong?"

"just…"

I started to speak but stopped.

 

 

But strangely, that kid

Even without me saying anything, his eyes seemed to know something.

 

"If you're confused by rumors, believe what you want to believe."

“…So, it’s all a lie?”

He didn't answer.

 

That silence was neither "no" nor "yes."

Instead, he spoke quietly.

"No matter what I did, I don't want to do that to you."

At that moment, I was speechless.

 

 

night.

A room with the lights off.

Even when I closed my eyes under the covers, those words kept lingering in my mind.

“I don’t think that’s the case for you.”

 

 

Is that…something that reassures me?

Or is this just a statement that creates the illusion that I am special?

I don't know.

But, I wanted to know more about him.

Really.
