Forget-me-not

"So, how far will Jindo go today?"

Ah... what did he say... I was so shocked by what Hajin said earlier that I still haven't come to my senses. I think kids who get beaten up by other kids are usually timid and can't speak well... but I wondered why Kim Hajin could speak so confidently even after being beaten like that.

It was lunchtime. I thought I'd head to the cafeteria, but I knew I'd be bullied by the kids, so I grabbed some bread and milk from the cafeteria and sat on a bench in the playground. Perhaps because it was still mealtime, it was quiet, as if I were alone in the world. That was nice. I rustled open the bag and took a bite.

What are you doing here instead of eating lunch?
























"Ah... again..."
























"Again... Isn't it too obvious that you hate me..?"
























"Because it's annoying..."
























I glanced at the Yun-gi next to me and then chewed the bread.
























"Don't you want to get revenge on the kids who bully you?"
























"Not really... It'll just end with a few hits,
I don't really feel like taking revenge"
























"But it still hurts. I get hurt and I have to get treatment..."
























"It's a wound that needs to be taken care of
It's annoying, but if you hit it a few times, it'll just go away.
Rather, I find that more comfortable."
























For a moment, I wondered if he was being treated by the kids because he didn't really hurt, or if he was being hurt by people and couldn't approach them. The more I looked at him, the more intriguing he became.
























"Hey Kim Ha-jin!!"
























At that moment, a voice was heard calling Hajin's name from far away. It was a voice that he had never heard before.

Are you eating bread here again?
























"Yeah, did you eat?"
























He drank the white milk in his right hand as if he was used to it, and looked at the distant mountains.
























"Oh, but who's next to you?"
























"Transfer student"
























After saying goodbye to Yoongi, Jungkook asked a lot of questions about why he hadn't been to school for a few days, so Yoongi had no place to be involved.
























"Hajin is not good at talking to other people.
"Thank you for coming first. You said you were Min Yoongi, right?? "
























"Oh, uh..."

I hope Jeon Jungkook gets along well!
