"Ah... why did you kick me out?"
Lee Yeon vents his anger by kicking rocks on the road.
"Ha... It takes 20 minutes to go back to school and 10 minutes if you take a shortcut... Why is the streetlight on the shortcut broken?"
The shortcut that Lee Yeon has to take is an alley, but because of the tall apartments and buildings surrounding it, sunlight does not reach the alley, so it is dark even during the day. The streetlights are on all day, but today, of all days, the streetlights are broken, so Lee Yeon is debating whether or not to take the alley.
"Oh, I don't know! Is there something wrong?"
Lee Yeon enters the alleyway, believing that nothing will happen.
But when he actually comes in, he is scared, and when he feels like someone is chasing him from behind, he becomes even more scared.
Lee Yeon's footsteps are getting faster and faster, and Lee Yeon feels that the mysterious person chasing her from behind is also walking faster.
"If you walk a little further, you can get out... please..."
He mutters and walks faster and faster, but the person seems to be following Lee Yeon's footsteps and urging her on.
At that moment, Do-Hyeon's voice was heard.
"Huh? Hello, Han Yi-yeon~"
Thanks to Do-hyeon coming out of the house in the alley, the mysterious person who had been following behind seemed to have gone away.
And Do-hyeon runs over in surprise when he sees Lee-yeon collapse on the floor, perhaps because she's relaxed.
"What? What's wrong? Are you okay?"
Lee Yeon's tearful voice as she is surprised by Do-hyeon's voice
"Uh...why..."
Do-hyeon looks surprised.
Although it was Lee Yeon who was surprised, it sounded like Do Hyeon was more surprised.
"no..."
Lee Yeon opens her mouth with tears in her eyes
"That's... This alley is a shortcut and I can get to school quickly, so... I came this way... and then... from behind... ugh... it felt like someone I didn't know was following me... ugh... But then I remembered what my older brother said... that these days, middle school girls who walk alone or... grown women are kidnapped... so I was really scared... but when you showed up, that person just ran away to the other side..."
"what..?"
Do-hyeon suddenly becomes serious.
"You must have been very scared..."
But the voice was a warm voice.
"I was so scared... If it weren't for you... I would have been in real trouble..."
"Okay... Stop crying! I'll take you to school. Let's go."
"Ugh..."
"Get up and dust off your knees... Your pretty dress is going to get dirty."
Do-hyeon causes a stir and uses his big hands to wipe away the dust from his clothes and knees.
"Okay, shall we go?"
Do-hyun with a bright smile
So I exited the alley.
Because Lee Yeon kept sobbing while walking down the street, everyone's eyes were turned towards Lee Yeon and Do Hyeon.
"Um... Lee Yeon-ah... Don't cry... People will see me as the one who made you cry..."
"But... I was so scared..."
"Stop.. Don't cry.. Why are you crying.."
A police car stops in front of Lee Yeon and Do-hyeon, waiting for the traffic light to turn on.
And John, with a serious expression, got out of the car
"What are you?"
