Episode 14
“You...were the victim, not the perpetrator...?”
“Yes, I was a victim.”
"no..."
“You could never be a victim like me, could you?”
“Why were you a victim...?”
“Because you’re smart.”
“What? Me too...”
“No, you always try to hurt others.”
“Hey, I’m thinking about what to do in the future...”
“So you thought about things like this just now? No.”
“...”
“The KakaoTalk message I sent to the female protagonist was something I manipulated.”
“You manipulated it...?”
“Yeah, I’m going to take revenge on you just like I did now.”
“Choi Min-ju, you are so poisonous.”
“Yeah, but at least I don’t think it’s worse than you.”
“You really...”
With that said, Rona left the classroom.
“Minju, are you okay...?”
“Yeah, I’m fine.”
The classroom quickly turned into a place of conversation cursing Rona.
“Hey, you guys who are cursing at Baekro right now... listen carefully.”
“...”
“You don’t think things are bad at all here?”
“...”
“If you think about it, you guys are the worst people.”
“???”
“When did you ever curse at Yeoju, and now you’re cursing at Baekro?”
“...”
“It’s really absurd to just curse without even checking if the rumor is true.”
The children in the class became quiet, as if they thought Minju was right.
“The female protagonist had something to do, and Baek Ro-na must have something to do too, so I think cursing first is the worst thing you can do.”
Minju said that and went outside.
“Minju... I’m sorry...”
“Huh? Why are you sorry?”
“Just because of me...”
“It’s not because of you.”
“Still, I’m so grateful… I can’t do anything for you...”
“I just did what I had to do.”
“...”
“Subin, can you help me find Baekro and make peace with Yeoju?”
“Okay, let’s go, lady.”
"huh..."
Subin and Yeoju go to find Rona, leaving only Beomgyu and Minju behind.
“Uh... Minju...”
"why?"
“You are really amazing...”
“Huh? No?”
“I think you’re really amazing...”
“What are the details?”
“It was really amazing how he helped Yeoju, how he took revenge on Baekro, and most of all, how he spoke confidently in front of the kids.”
“I’m glad you said that...”
“So, what I’m saying is...”
"huh?"
“Oh, no.”
***
“Baek Ro-na, talk to the heroine for a moment.”
“I have nothing to say.”
“I’ll be out, so make yourself comfortable.”
"no."
“Then I’ll go out. Come back after we’re done talking.”
“I don’t want to...”
Subin left, and Yeoju and Rona made eye contact.
“...”
“Rona...”
“...”
“I don’t want an apology or anything, I just want to know why you did that to me...”
“I’m jealous of you and you’re unlucky...”
“Lies... You have another reason...”
“I’ll wait until you’re ready… Speak slowly...”
“That’s because my mom and dad raised me...”
"uh?"
“I was happy when Grandma and Grandpa raised me. I received a lot of love.”
"however...?"
“I think I got into a lot of trouble in elementary school because I was raised so harshly.”
“...”
“So I went back to my mom and dad, but they were always indifferent to me, so I didn’t get much love.”
"ah..."
“I ended up like this because I wanted to be loved by the person I liked so much... I’m really sorry...”
“No, I didn’t even know you had something like that...”
“I’m telling you this only...”
“Thank you for telling me, Rona...”
“I’m so sorry… You don’t have to forgive me for the rest of your life...”
“No, I will forgive.”
“You forgive me...?”
“Yeah, I think you could have done that.”
“...”
“You just have to avoid that in the future.”
“My lady...”
“Shall we go out now?”
“But I’m too scared to go out...”
"why...?"
“I’m afraid the kids will say something...”
“Don’t worry, Minju told the kids something.”
“What did you say...?”
“Yeah, so the kids won’t be able to say anything.”
"... okay..."
***
“Did you guys talk?”
"huh."
"really?"
“That’s right.”
“Subin...”
"why?"
“I’m sorry, for being stubborn and causing trouble for the female protagonist...”
"I'm fine."
“But guys...”
"why?"
“I won’t be coming to school starting tomorrow...”
“Huh...? Why?”
“Grandma and Grandpa decided to live abroad.”
"really...?"
“Yeah, about 3 years...?”
“It’s a shame we can’t see each other right after we reconcile...”
“Can you give me your number so I can call you when I get back?”
“Okay! I won’t change my number until you come back!”
"me too."
“Thank you, really...”
“No, let’s go to Beomgyu and Minju now.”
"okay."
***
“Beomgyu, Minju... I’m sorry.”
"huh?"
“I’m sorry to Beomgyu for harassing and deceiving Yeoju all this time, and for continuing to pressure her when she was already a planned marriage partner...”
"... are you okay."
“I’m sorry for saying such things to Minju as soon as she transferred, and I’m sorry for telling Yeoju to do bad things...”
“No, I’m sorry you must have been very surprised by my actions...”
“But Rona, today is your last day...”
“What...? Why?”
“He said he came after living abroad for about 3 years.”
“Ah... I see...”
“I said I’d contact you when I got there instead.”
“Rona and I have each other’s phone numbers, so we don’t need to exchange them, right?”
“Yeah, I’ll contact you too.”
“Let’s go into the classroom now.”
"okay."
The relationship between Yeo-ju and Ro-na, which seemed like it would never unravel like a tightly tied thread, was unraveled thanks to Min-ju.
+++
“Oh, Choi Min-ju!”
"are you okay?"
“What, why are you like that?”
“No, Minju...”
“Be quiet.”
“What is it, what is going on!”
“That’s because I hit him.”
“No, what are you talking about... you...”
“I told you to be quiet, Choi Beom-gyu.”
"huh..."
“Oh, I’m really curious!!”
“...you'll find out later.”
“Why, why later?”
“It’s not time yet.”
“...Okay, let’s go quickly.”
“Okay, we’ll be late.”
“Choi Min-ju... Come with me...”
“Come and find out on your own.”
“...”
“I’m going.”
So, Beomgyu came to the classroom alone...
