A bullied girl becomes a queen bee?
03: My friend.



전정국
What are you doing now?


이예지
?!


김여주
!


이예지
jungkook jeon‧‧‧?


김여주
( Jeon Jungkook? If it's Jeon Jungkook, then... Oh my. The son of a wealthy family?!?! That's him?!! )

I was startled for a moment and my eyes widened, and Lee Ye-ji looked embarrassed.


이예지
N, why are you here, Jeongguk?


전정국
Me? I came to see him.

Jeon Jungkook pointed at me and said, and then all the kids in the class focused their attention on you.


이예지
Kim Yeo-ju? Why her??


전정국
Because he's my friend.


김여주
(Wh,what? Friend??)

I was flustered. If you get involved with me, it'll be difficult, so why are you saying something like that?


이예지
what?


이예지
Phew‧‧‧ Phewhahaha!

Suddenly, Lee Ye-ji started laughing loudly.


이예지
Are you kidding me right now? lol


이예지
You're friends with a loner like Kim Yeo-ju lol


전정국
No? This is no joke.


전정국
This guy is really my friend.


전정국
Right, buddy?

Jeon Jungkook suddenly put his arm around my shoulder and said.


김여주
(Hmm) Oh, uh‧‧‧ That‧‧‧


전정국
(Whisper) Just answer yes. Aren't you in a difficult situation right now?

I did that because it seemed like I was using Jeon Jungkook, but I just answered Jeon Jungkook's words.


김여주
‧‧‧ Yeah, yeah‧‧‧ That's right.


전정국
Did you hear? So I'll take my friend with me~?


이예지
Huh? Okay, wait a minute!


전정국
why?


이예지
Yeoju‧‧‧ was talking to me‧‧‧ heh


전정국
Oh, really?


김여주
(Oh, no! If Jeon Jungkook leaves now, I’ll get hit by Lee Yeji.)


전정국
I guess you're talking about harassing people.


이예지
‧‧‧ what?

As soon as Jeongguk finished speaking, Lee Yeji's expression hardened.


전정국
(Whisper) If you touch my friend one more time, I'll know that I'll cut ties with you. Lee Ye-ji.


이예지
(shudder)

After Jeon Jungkook whispered in her ear, Lee Yeji couldn't say anything.

Jeon Jeong-guk and I left the classroom, leaving Lee Ye-ji frozen behind.

- School rooftop


김여주
Huh? This is the school rooftop, right?


김여주
Aren't you not allowed to enter the school rooftop?


전정국
Hey, that's just a warning that it might be dangerous.


전정국
Anyway, the rooftop door doesn't lock very well.


김여주
That's true‧‧‧.


전정국
‧‧‧By the way, are you okay?


김여주
what?


전정국
Lee Ye-ji was harassing you earlier.


김여주
Ah, it's okay. It's something that happens all the time.


전정국
Is this something that always happens? Does Lee Ye-ji usually bother you a lot?


김여주
(Oops. If I say this, Lee Ye-ji won't leave me alone. I'm just being sarcastic. ㅜㅠ)


김여주
Ah, no‧‧‧ Just‧‧‧


전정국
Tell me.


김여주
huh?


전정국
It's okay, so tell me.


전정국
If Lee Ye-ji touches you, then I won't let her go.


전정국
You can talk with confidence -


김여주
‧‧‧.

I hesitated to speak for a moment, but Jungkook had helped me before, so I trusted him and ended up telling him everything.

Jeongguk listened to my story with a serious expression.


전정국
‧‧‧ That happened.


전정국
Lee Ye-ji, I didn't see her like that, but she's worse than I thought.


김여주
‧‧‧.


전정국
‧‧‧ ah.


전정국
You know, that thing I asked you to do at the store earlier.


김여주
Oh, yeah.


전정국
Can I write that wish now?


김여주
What is it?


전정국
If you have any difficult or challenging tasks in the future,


전정국
Don't hesitate and talk to me.


김여주
‧‧‧Huh? Is that what you want?


전정국
huh!


김여주
But‧‧‧ That's not beneficial to you at all‧‧‧?


전정국
Ugh. You're not going to grant my wish?


김여주
Yeah, no! Okay, I'll tell you.


전정국
(Smile) Yeah haha


김여주
(What the... I have no idea what kind of person this is.)


김여주
(Well, I guess he's not a bad kid.)
