Not sympathy, but reciprocation_
















"Sarah, wake up."



" ...? "



"Mom! Sarah is awake!"



What's this kid?



It was small and cute. It gently pulled my arm and woke me up. Its chatter was like a chick's.



"Sarah, are you awake?"



who are you?



A refreshing air wafted around me. Long hair tickled my cheek, and the woman with her bright smile was the prettiest person I'd ever seen.



"Jimin and his mom made lunch together~"



"That's right! I made rice balls too!"



Jimin? Park Jimin? Is this Park Jimin? But why does he look like this?



And this woman is your mother? No, she's not. My mother isn't like that. She's a horrible, dirty woman. She doesn't have a face like that. She doesn't have a smile like that.



My mom is a monster? Why is that warm woman my mom?



"Sarah? What's wrong?"



"Where does it hurt...?"



" ...word "



" huh? "



"Lies. Why are you pretending to be my mother when you're not even my mother?"



Kwajik!



Everything before my eyes vanished. Now all I could see was darkness.



"Sarah, what are you doing?"



" mom? "



Ah, yes. That's what she looks like. That's what my real mother looks like. She wears jewels all over her body, and has a murderous look in her eyes. Her smile is creepy. That's my mother.



"I have to go and study. If I don't get a first-class grade this time, I know I'll end up in the basement again;;"



" yes "

"Is he still sleeping?"



"The same goes for Park Jimin."



"Should I wake you up...?"



"I didn't think I'd pass out for half a day..."



"I need to feed him something, let's wake him up."



"...it's noisy..."

"Are you awake? Sorry. I was trying to keep you from waking up."



"What time is it?"



"It's 2 o'clock."



" ...I slept a lot."



"You don't look well. Are you sick?"



" no. "



"I'll wake up Park Jimin and come back!" Taehyung



"Don't run!! Do you want to fall!?"



"I feel like my ears are going to fall off...;;"

" sorry... "



"By the way, aren't you hungry?"



"Not really"



"You haven't eaten anything. You can't keep starving."



"I don't usually eat much."



"But lunch..."



"When have you ever seen me eat lunch?"



" ..... "



"I'm not hungry because I'm used to not eating."



The room suddenly became quiet. Everyone was busy looking at each other, and Sarah just sighed silently.



Honestly, I find it incredibly uncomfortable being around them. My favorability rating, which has already risen to its highest level, is also irritating. It's already rising out of sympathy...



Suddenly -

"What's going on, why is the atmosphere like this?"



Min Yoongi came in holding a bowl of rice in one hand.



"Huh? No... lol"



"...I'm up now, so should I go out? What are you going to do with all these people surrounding me?"



"Oh, okay... sorry."



Wouldn't it be better if you didn't do anything you'd be sorry for?



"Make sure to eat the dead...!" Jungkook



Everyone left. Except Min Yoongi.



"I have no appetite."



"So I just made some porridge."



"I don't want to eat it"



"Do you want me to force feed you?"



" ...under "



Min Yoongi brought a chair and sat down next to Sarah.



" mouth "



"I have hands."



Sarah took the porridge and started to eat it, crunching it.



"Are you a bird? Eat a big scoop."



"Don't mind me;;?"



"Anyway, with that temper"



Sera glared at Min Yoongi in disbelief. Min Yoongi didn't seem to care at all.



"Why don't you go and get some Park Jimin or something?"



"I asked Kim Taehyung to do it."



"Then get out. I'll take care of the food."



"I'll go out after seeing that you've eaten everything."



"Hey, you...;;"



"I know, you're uncomfortable with us right now."



"Isn't it strange not to know?"



"It wasn't out of pity that we helped you."



" what? "



"I just repaid you."



"What does that mean;;?"



"You and Park Jimin have helped us a lot. We just repaid you for that."



That was something I couldn't understand. I remember almost nothing.



"Of course, what we've done so far hasn't been right. Something feels very twisted, but right now, saving you and Park Jimin is the priority."



"You must know this. I will never forgive you. I hate seeing you like this... I am keeping quiet because I know what my situation is like."



"I won't ask you guys again. This time, I have no choice but to do it because of Park Jimin..."



"They both look exactly the same, who would say they're twins?"



" what do you mean. "

"Even though we're always badmouthing each other to the point of wanting to kill each other, we end up taking care of each other. I guess that's what blood ties are for."



That's true. Of course, I knew Sarah's intentions, so I couldn't help it. But this wasn't the first time Park Jimin had tried to protect me.



Ha... haha, how did things get so twisted? At some point, this game stopped being about happiness and made me struggle to survive. It gave me hope when I was praying for death, but at the same time, it unleashed hell on me.



"I wonder if there's a reason I have to live like this."



"Hey, what are you talking about...!"



Sera looked at Min Yoongi. He looked extremely tired, and it made her feel uncomfortable.



"Me too...lol How shitty must your house be for you to think that being with you guys is better."



"You... when you fell asleep on the rooftop last time, what dream did you have that made you want to die..."



Suddenly - !



"Oh no!! Park Jimin...!!" Taehyung



" ...?! "
