"hello"
"Hey!!! Who are you!!! Who are you to take my kid's phone!!"
"I don't even know who that person is!!! I don't even know why I have that iPhone!!!"
"Who are you!!! Tell me your name!!!"
"Me?? This is me!!!! Do you know me?!!"
"What..? What did you say?"
"Why is the name Lee Yeo-ju so fucking weird?"
"Hey..Hey, why is Dohyun's phone there..?"
"Seungwoo oppa?"
"Explain... why is Dohyun's phone there and why are you answering it?"
I was worried. If I tell the truth here, you'll know I broke my promise with you, and since you'll know I dug up information from others and revealed it, you'll know that I met Han Yeoreum and the X1 members.
"Actually, I found it. I was walking down the street today and found a phone on the ground. It was too late to bring it to the police station, so I took it first. It turned out to be Dohyun's phone? I guess it was a coincidence."
"Lee Yeo-ju. Speak clearly before I call the children in one by one and ask them."
"Really... Okay, I'll tell you what happened. The X1 members came to see me today. I don't know the reason, and we didn't meet up and we didn't meet up. And then Hanyeoreum followed me and grabbed me by the collar and said something to me and smashed my phone. Why? Are you satisfied now?"
"Okay... I understand."
My brother's voice disappeared with a clanging sound. Then, as if he didn't realize the call was still going on, he called the members.
"Come out, you guys"
"Yes, hyung."
"Tell me the truth, I told you everything."
"That's...actually, last time...the sasaeng birthday too...and this summer's personality controversy...it's all because of Yeo-joo. So after Seung-woo got scolded by the agency and went to his parents' house, we decided to meet Yeo-joo among ourselves and ask her to help us. But Yeo-joo wasn't what we thought, and back then, the Yeo-joo was nowhere to be found, she had changed..."
"Did the people there call Yeoju K?"
"I think so.. And while the female protagonist was explaining, other people were looking at her, saying that they had brought Hanyeoreum from somewhere, and the female protagonist was looking at her as if she was going to kill her, and her hands were shaking..."
"Seungyeon and I hid it behind Yeoju because we were afraid something big would happen, but Hanyeoreum kept saying that Seungwoo hyung... would reveal her weaknesses, so Yeoju couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed Hanyeoreum by the collar and told her that if she did something like that, she would reveal everything from her past and told her to come forward. Then she threw Hanyeoreum on the floor and smashed her phone and took the SIM card.."
"Then where did Dohyun drop his phone?"
"That... that... actually... I put it in Yeoju-noona's clothes on purpose..."
"why"
"If I do that, Yeoju-noona will call me and come pick up the phone, so... I thought it would be good if you made up with Seungwoo-hyung and got along well... sob... I'm sorry... I guess I was wrong... sobㅡㄱ."
"It's okay, that's possible... but... I don't think this is something that can be resolved by you reconciling... Right, Yeoju?"
It wasn't cut off for a while. This devilish Han Seung-woo... He was telling me to listen to the kids telling the truth, just for a while.
"Yes, I heard you well, Dohyun. I'm sorry, but when I die in midsummer, I'll return to you."
"Please come quickly.. Even though the time we spent together was very short, Sister Yeoju said that she was very happy and precious during that time.."
"Maybe I'll stay with Seungwoo oppa even after I go back...? After all, I'm a stranger in name only..."
"Still...still, that's okay...I just wish you'd come back to us...sob..."
"thank you"
So our short yet long phone call ended. I was more tired than before I showered.
"I should go return the phone..."
I must have been tired before I knew it, because I fell asleep in bed.
The next day... I saw a news article saying that the X1 members were having a press conference... I thought it was nothing special and just passed it by... but then I got a message in my email.

What on earth is that email? Look forward to it! It's already over!
