4. The link between scandal and private life

.. Hey.. Isn't that him?

That's right... That's right... I think that's him.

Wow.. It's ordinary..

Yeah... I thought I was meeting a really great guy...

Shh.. hey.. I can hear you..



After her morning classes, Lina went to a cafe with her friends. She looked around, wondering what was going on with the whispers directed at her.
A girl came up to Lina from the corner of the cafe and asked her.

*Excuse me.. Are you really dating Seungyeon Cho?


?

🧡Huh? What is that...

Lina's hands were trembling with embarrassment.
The friends next to her grabbed Lina's wrists and pulled her back, blocking her path.

What's going on, friend? What business do you have with my friend?

* No, I just wanted to confirm.

Chin2 What are you trying to confirm?

The girl picks up her phone and points to the screen with her finger.
My friends stare at the screen for a while and then turn around with surprised eyes.
Lina tilts her head, not knowing English.

Chin1 Lee Gasana did it..
Chin2 Hey.. Irina.. You really.. Ha...

🧡Why..

Lina looks at her phone screen and freezes.

Zing.. zing.. zing..

🧡Hello?

💙Don't say anything and come behind the school library now.

Jo Seung-yeon?




Chin2 Hey.. what's wrong.. who are you?

Chin1 Are you okay? What's this article about you? Is it true?


🧡Excuse me, where am I going...

Chin2 Where are you! Lina! Hey!

Lina hears her friends following her, but she runs towards the library without looking back.
Lina, catching her breath, arrives at the parking lot behind the library and approaches the white BMW, its headlights flashing.

The driver's window opens and a voice is heard.

💙Tayo.

Lina hesitates for a moment and then opens the front door.
Seungyeon is sitting in the car.

An awkward silence flows.. Seungyeon's soft voice breaks the silence.

💙I'm sorry.

When Lina looks at Seungyeon, Seungyeon covers her face with her palm.

💙I didn't know things would turn out like this.. Why would a reporter be at that cafe yesterday..

Ah... I see... Lina understood this situation a little.

🧡It's okay. Even if it's not true, you can still provide corrections.

💙That's true, but... things aren't that simple...

🧡Huh? What is that..

💙Have you ever had a strange person come to visit you?

🧡Who? Well... I guess it wasn't there..

Lina stopped talking as she remembered the girl she had met at the cafe earlier.

💙Why.. was it there?

🧡At the cafe earlier, someone asked if I was dating Jo Seungyeon..

💙Ha... It's been taken care of in the meantime...

🧡Huh?

💙I'm really sorry. I'll wait until class is over today, so why don't you go somewhere with me for a bit after class is over?

🧡Where are you...? I have plans this evening...

Lina picks up her phone to check the KakaoTalk message that keeps ringing. Seungyeon covers Lina's phone screen with his palm and holds it.

💙How much class is left?

🧡It's a liberal arts class.. But why is that..

💙I'll tell you the details in the evening. I'll wait here, so come here right after class. And just promise me one thing.

🧡Yes, what is it?

💙Don't answer KakaoTalk messages, texts, or phone calls until dinnertime. Just answer my calls. Can you promise?

🧡Ah.. yes.. I understand..

💙And no matter who calls you, never look at them. Just come straight here.
