"Was it like that? LOL"
Park Sung-ho strokes Moon Ha-na's head.
- Hey... what are you doing..!
"Thank you. For apologizing."
- ...I see.
"Haha then I'll go now, class starts soon."
- ...Uh...bye...
After Park Sung-ho leaves, Moon Ha-na lies down in the infirmary and stays there until school ends.
After school
- Oh my... School's already over... Ha... Are the girls going to hit me again today..?
One of them ran out of the infirmary.
rooftop
Girl 2: Ah~ Hana, it's been a while since school ended, why are you coming now?
Girl 1: Now I see you're bragging that you're close with Park Sung-ho. It's so funny.
Girl 4: Hey hey!! Everyone be quiet and calm~ How many degrees of intensity do you want to get hit with today~? It's from 1 to 100.
- 50...
Woman 1: What?
- 50..
Girl 3: Hey hey, make it 500 lol
Girl 1: Oh, what the heck? Are you the type that secretly enjoys being hit? Hahahahahaha
Girls: Oh, that's so funny lol
Puck puck puck puck puck

- Ugh... Ah...
Girl 2: Hana, when you're talking nicely, stop hanging around with Park Sung-ho. It's so annoying.
- ....
Girl 3: I trust you'll listen to me at this point~? Bye~ haha
The group of girls leaves the rooftop. Moonhana is left alone. Moonhana sits on the rooftop railing, thinking.
- Why do I have to go through this 'again'? Should I just die...? No one loves me.
At that moment, someone opened the rooftop door.
"What are you doing?"
- ..Huh? I was just looking at the sky...
"lie."
-... It's not a lie
"...get down from there"
- huh
One of them climbs down from the railing. Seongho approaches to hug her, but his face hardens when he sees that her face is covered in bruises.
"Hey. What is this door?"
- Huh? Oh... I got this because I fell.
"Hey. How long are you going to lie?"
Seongho grabs Hana's wrist, and Hana's wrist is covered in bruises and cuts, making Hana feel pain.
- iced coffee...
"Oh, sorry, I didn't hold it too hard."
- ...
"You really have to be honest. You're right."
- Yeah!! That's right. What do you want me to do? Seriously...
"...sorry"
- what?
"I'm sorry I couldn't come sooner."
Seongho hugs Hana. However, Hana tries to escape from Seongho Park's embrace, but Seongho Park's strength is too strong, so she gives up on breaking free.
-Why are you sorry?
"I'm sorry I couldn't protect you."
- ..Okay, stop apologizing. It's not your fault. It's just that I was born wrong.
"Don't say things like that."
- ...
Seongho and Hana were sitting side by side in the middle of the rooftop, looking at the sky.
- ...Hey Park Sung-ho
"huh?"
- I'll tell you why I hate meeting friends.
- Actually, when I was little, I wasn't like this. I was the brightest, most energetic child ever. Then, when I entered elementary school and was in sixth grade, I wanted to become friends with the kids, so I smiled brightly and talked to them. But they avoided me? So I kept talking to them. And they said I was too noisy, too noisy, and too ugly to look at. Some of the worst kids even hit me. From that day on, I realized I couldn't be happy. I couldn't be energetic. From that day on, I just went around quietly. I hated making friends.
"...It must have been very difficult."
- Well... it was like that back then, but it's okay now.
"But why are you telling me this?"
- I think I can trust you and say it.
Seongho sees Hana smiling and talking to him for the first time and says this.
"You should go around smiling."
"You look prettier when you smile."
