8-TEEN
1. The title is I Eat It



이찬
"Lady! I know you're here!"

It's Lee Chan. He hid willingly, but he found me willingly.

I am now 12 years old and in the 5th grade, and I have spent a lot of time at my mother's daycare center since that incident.


이여주
"Speak quietly...! Everyone..."


이찬
"You don't want to go again...? This is already the fifth time..."

I know that. Hiding like this and saying you don't want to go is just a bother to the lady.

But what can I do if I don't want to go?

I wish you were my mother. Then I wouldn't have to go.

This is the fifth time, so far ten people have come to pick me up but they all gave up and left.


이여주
"But... I like it here."


이찬
"They're all rich tycoons... Why?


이여주
"People aren't judged by money."


이찬
"I know..."


임향기
"Hey lady...come out, everyone's gone."

I went into the director's office, prepared to hear more nagging.

But this time, unlike when he was nagging, his face seemed to be a mixture of seriousness and sadness.


임향기
"My lady... I like you so much... What should I do..."

I didn't say anything and just listened to what the woman said.


임향기
"If you don't get adopted this time... I'm retiring..."

My heart sank for a moment. Now I know that I'm the reason for her retirement. I'm causing her tremendous harm.


이여주
"I'll go this time... I don't want to bother you, ma'am..."

I said this while hugging the woman who was crying sadly.


임향기
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."


이여주
"I... will... come visit often..."

After crying for a while, I left the director's office.

Each of them was drawing pictures and writing letters.

Most of the children were crying as they wrote each letter, and some were crying while holding onto the vice principal's skirt.

The vice principal was having a hard time because none of the children had graduated from elementary school and were not mature enough to be independent.

"Hey, sister.../Hey, sister.../Huh...Hey, sister..."

I barely held back my tears, but my tear ducts were stimulated once again.


임향기
"...How much time should I give you?"

I wanted to say forever, but I felt so bad for the woman who would be at a loss when the police came to the orphanage, so I said less than a week.


이여주
"...I'll only be here for 3 days... for 3 days..."
