Tell a lie
-Episode 3-
[Today, tomorrow, I am the same]
Yeo-ju and Seung-kwan were checking the script, and only when evening came did they see the time. Yeo-ju looked at her watch and spoke urgently to Seung-kwan.
"Huh? Hey, Seungkwan, I'm going!!"
"Huh..? Bye..!!"
bang-
"Ugh, it's too late, it's too late...!!"
Yeoju quickly packed her bag and left the practice room.
"ha..."
"Why, what is it again?"
"Hey, I think I'm crazy."
"What are you talking about?"
"ha..."
"No, tell me why!!!"
"Do you hate me? Well... after hurting you so much..."
"What are you talking about!!! Explain it so I can understand!!"
"There's a woman I broke up with five years ago."
"Oh, right... No, what??????"
"Hey, listen!!"
"Okay, keep talking."
"But the reason we broke up wasn't because I hated him, and it wasn't because he hated me."
"Then why did you break up?"
"I lied, pushed, and cold..."
"What??? Are you crazy?"
"But, on the day I saw you, I met you?"
"You're crazy, with what confidence?"
"But...you said the same thing as before..."
"You are a real bad guy, how could you do that??"
"I'm screwed"
"I don't know who that woman is, but I feel bad for her."
"You'll faint if you know."
"Are you a celebrity???"
"Look for any famous people in our agency, I'll go to my schedule."
"What? Hey, our agency only has you and senior Yeoju!!!!!!, Hey!!!!!!!"
bang-
Soonyoung left Jihoon's studio, and immediately bumped into someone. She saw the person's face apologizing, and it looked familiar, like she'd seen it somewhere.
"Kwon Soon-young..?"
"Oh, it's been a while, Jisoo-hyung."
"I thought you and I weren't close enough to greet each other."
"...."
Jisoo passed Soonyoung and waited for the elevator, but she seemed anxious about something. Soonyoung asked Jisoo with anxiety.
"Is Yeoju sick?"
"Why do you want to know that?"
"Are you sick?!"
"He's been transferred to the hospital now."
Before she could even finish speaking, Soonyoung went down the emergency stairs and ran to the hospital closest to her agency without even wearing a mask. When she asked Yeoju for her name, she was at the same hospital Soonyoung had gone to.
Drumroll-
"....Where are you coming from?"
"Ah, Hongsia, it was you."
"Get out now"
"...I'll just look at your face and leave."
"What is it, Kwon Soon-young?"
"It's been a while, Moon Jun-hwi..."
Jun-hwi put his hand on Sia's shoulder and looked at Sun-young, speaking to her in a sarcastic tone.
"What did you say to Sia?"
"I'm glad you're dating. You look good together."
"This isn't the time for you to say that, why are you here?"
"Hong Yeo-ju said she was sick..."
Soonyoung's words trailed off, and silence fell. Soonyoung wondered if she was truly worthy of facing Yeoju.
"What does it matter whether Hong Yeo-ju is sick or not?"
"....."
"Soonyoung, you're Yeoju's ex-boyfriend, right? Why are you trying to act like he's her boyfriend?"
At that moment, Jisoo came in, gasping for breath, and grabbed Yeoju's hand, her hand shaking violently.
"Kwon Soon-young, get out."
"...."
"Get out!!!"
Sunyoung left the hospital room and tears fell from her eyes.
'Can I hold you, heroine?'
That night was a particularly dark and sad night.
"Ugh..."
Yeo-ju woke up in the hospital room at dawn and found Ji-soo on her right, Sia on her left, and Jun-hwi sleeping uncomfortably at the entrance. She carefully laid Ji-soo and Sia on the extra beds, laid Jun-hwi on the sofa, and then dragged the IV drip and opened the hospital room door. Upon opening the door, she saw a man hunched over next to her.
".....Kwon Soon-young..?"
"....Hong Yeo-ju...."
"Why did you come?"
"...I'm worried"
"what...?"
"...I'm worried...is there going to be another accident..."
"...."
"I saw what happened, so I'll go check it out."
Soonyoung woke up, and the female protagonist, seeing her eyes swollen, grabbed her wrist and pulled her up.
"You... cried?"
"Uh..no?"
"You're lying, your eyes are swollen..."
"ah...."
"....Why did you cry..?"
"....I can't say it"
"...Okay..., you don't like it if I say... "I like it..?"
"I told you... today, tomorrow, I'm the same."
"yes..?"
The grip on Yeoju's hand that had been holding Sunyoung loosened, and tears welled up in her eyes, but her mouth remained smiling. Sunyoung went to a place where Yeoju was out of sight, sat down, and thought.
'Kwon Soon-young, are you crazy? What the...?'
Yeoju cried as she looked at where Sunyoung had gone, and thought.
'You can...change...right? Right, Soonyoung...?'
Tears flowed continuously from the heroine's eyes, the corners of her eyes became red from being rubbed against her clothes, and someone hugged her from behind.
"Sister...why are you crying..?"
"Ah.. it's Seungkwan.."
"Why is that?"
"just"
"Are you okay with the pain?"
"huh...."
"Were you in a lot of pain?"
"are you okay..."
"But why are you crying... the area around your eyes is all wet."
Seung-kwan touched the corner of Yeo-ju's eyes, and Yeo-ju, remembering how Soon-young had comforted her when she cried before, started crying again.
"Uh...why? Does it hurt? Should I call a doctor?"
"Huh... no..."
"Don't cry, if you cry,I'm starting to feel sad too..."
"huh...?"
"Ah...ah!! That's right!! As a close friend, when my older sister cries..., like, that..."
Seung-kwan stuttered, and Yeo-ju smiled at the sight of Seung-kwan.
"Ugh..."
"....?"
"Really Boo Seung Kwanㅋㅋㅋ Do you know that you're really funny?"
"to..?"
"Thanks, I feel much better. Come in and talk to the kids until they wake up.
"yes!"
The heroine took Seung-gwan to her hospital room and talked until the sun rose.
