Several people came into my room not long after Niel left.


예리
who...

Things were falling apart and breaking here and there... He looked at me expressionlessly and dragged out all my belongings.


예리
...

I could have predicted it to some extent.

I thought of Niel's father whom I saw yesterday.

Secretary Hwang was standing in front of him.


예리
Secretary Hwang...

My luggage is thrown away in a mess of crumpled pieces, and the man standing next to Secretary Hwang with a pitiful expression opens his mouth.

강형욱
..you won't have anything to take with you.

강형욱
Those clothes too.

I bit my lips hard, choking up at the words of the man who grabbed my wrist.

I slapped my hand away and opened my mouth in the absurd situation where someone was trying to take off the clothes I was wearing.


예리
I won't take anything from here.


예리
At least be polite. What are you doing?

He chuckled as if what I said was ridiculous and then pushed me away.

강형욱
What kind of manners should I show to someone like you? Ah... something like this?

He slapped me on the cheek without a second thought.

강형욱
Baby...the world isn't that easy.

Eventually, tears poured out.

I wanted to see Daniel, but... I didn't want to see him.

Secretary Hwang, who could no longer stand by and watch, stepped forward.

황비서
Let me explain so you understand.

As the man who had been blocking my path glared at Secretary Hwang for a moment left, the people who had been gathering around also left.

황비서
...Yeoriyang..

황비서
...I'm sorry I couldn't help you... I didn't know you would go this far...


예리
...I'm sorry, but I need to be alone for a while..

Secretary Hwang nods at my words and leaves.

I got up with a tingling sensation in my legs

There must have been shards of glass scattered around, with things breaking here and there.

In that state, he stood in front of Daniel.

And I left you because I couldn't be with you in my misery...
