A girl hungry for love
EP. 23



이여주
Why... am I at school...?


권순영
...I know


이여주
It was definitely... vacation... wasn't it..?


권순영
right..?


이여주
But why is it only our school that has to go to school...


권순영
Just... bear with it. They said they'll give it to you on your day off later.


이여주
Going to school on a day like this? What the heck...

I leaned on the desk and stared out the window.


이여주
Ha... yeah, going to school in a uniform and carrying a backpack when the sun is blazing and it's so hot I feel like I'm melting...


권순영
Don't think too extremely.


이여주
Okay, let's think positively.


이여주
......


이여주
I can't think of anything

Ugh, ugh.

I am frustrated by the sudden return to school.

여우리
Yeoju,


이여주
..?

여우리
This is you, right?

Yeo-uri showed her phone screen.

A photo of Sunyoung and me holding hands was visible on the screen.


이여주
me : yes

여우리
Confident?


이여주
Why can't friends even go out together?

여우리
You don't have a shred of guilt, do you?


이여주
Why should I feel guilty?

여우리
Ha..., I didn't want to go this far, but

여우리
.....I heard you're dating Junhwi from the next class.


권순영
?


이여주
You're saying I'm dating Moon Jun-hui?

여우리
Right! You're the one who asked me for relationship advice.


이여주
under.....


이여주
Uri,


이여주
Why would I seek counseling from you? Think before you speak.


이여주
You have to tell a lie convincingly so they at least pretend to believe you.

I glanced sideways at the atmosphere among the classmates.

....What's with the atmosphere? Everyone seems to believe it..

Yeo-uri wasn't just stupid.


이여주
I can roughly tell what kind of bait you used on the kids...


이여주
It's a bit much that they fell for it, but..., I find you even more ridiculous.


이여주
Do you like Moon Junhui? Do you like Kwon Soonyoung? Or do you like me?

여우리
what..!


이여주
But why are you acting like this toward me?


이여주
Let's say Junhwi is my boyfriend, but what does that photo have to do with anything?

여우리
You're the only one who doesn't know you're a fox at school


이여주
Really? Thanks for the info. I'll give you some information too.


이여주
You're the only one who doesn't know you're annoying and unlikable at school.

I can hear girls badmouthing Yeo-ri from all over the place.


문준휘
Yeoju~ Schnex~

As Junhwi entered the classroom and called my name, all the students' eyes turned to him.


권순영
Sigh... the timing is just...


문준휘
W...What? Your closing assembly is over; why is everyone still here?


이여주
The tiger has arrived

여우리
We can't just sit idly by when the person involved has shown up in person.

여우리
If you're that confident, you should just ask.


이여주
I guess I'll have to play along with your tune for now, right?


이여주
Junhwi, they say you're dating me. What do you think?


문준휘
Did I have a girlfriend? Why didn't I know?

I made eye contact with Yeo-uri.


이여주
Was this the answer you wanted?

여우리
The answer I want? I suppose it's the answer you want.


이여주
So is that all?

여우리
what?


이여주
Ha... Yeah, I was a fool to expect anything lol. What could I expect from you?

I slung my bag over my shoulder, smirking in my own unlucky way.

여우리
....


이여주
Relax your expression~ You’re going to end up grabbing each other’s hair and fighting at this rate? We can’t let that happen.


이여주
If we have a total mess fight here, everything you've done acting so far will go to waste.


이여주
It would be a waste of time and effort to do that, wouldn't it?


이여주
Control your emotions well; falling into ruin happens in an instant.

I patted Yeo-uri on the shoulder and headed toward the door.


이여주
Could you move aside? I'm leaving.

반 친구들
O...ah, uh...


이여주
Sunyoung, Junhwi, if you don't come, I'm going alone, okay?


권순영
....Let's go together

Sunyoung packed her bag and followed me out.


문준휘
What... what is it...?

Junhwi left the classroom with Sunyoung, bewildered and unable to grasp the situation.


우산 (엄브렐러)
Haha, I ran out of ideas to use up the entire vacation at once, so I sent them to school.


우산 (엄브렐러)
Ah, what happened after school was a simple(?) event ^^


우산 (엄브렐러)
It’s better to just let things be.


우산 (엄브렐러)
Thank you for watching!
