"okay..."

(Past Yeoju City Point)

I went to school with Woojin and Jihoon from kindergarten to middle school.

The three of us always hung out together.

Even though we moved up a grade and were in different classes, we still went to school together.

We promised that even if our classes change in the future, the three of us will always go together.

We failed to keep that promise.

I started dating Jimin oppa when I was in the first year of middle school and became famous at our school.

It's a bit embarrassing to say this myself, but I was originally popular at my school because I was good at studying and pretty. But I became even more famous after I started dating Jimin, the most famous guy from the school next door.

Maybe that's why I've been receiving more confessions than before, even while I was dating my brother.

but

The incident started to get bigger little by little when I was in the third year of middle school.

There were two boys my age who used to chase me around a lot back then.

Those boys were extremely jealous of Jihoon and Woojin.

So he tried to get Jihoon and Woojin away from me.

So the conclusion they came to was to bully him.

Jihoon was handsome and kind, so almost all the girls at our school were fans of Jihoon.

So they started to harass Woojin because they were so afraid of Jihoon's fans.

They gradually increased the intensity of their harassment, and by June they were resorting to violence.

Woojin, who didn't want to show Jihoon and me that he was being beaten, started avoiding us and walking around alone.

Jihoon and I tried to find out who the perpetrator was and tell the teacher, but Woojin told us not to tell anyone because he didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

So, the three of us were walking home from school for the first time in a while, and I asked Woojin.

여주

"But... why are you being bullied...?"

지훈

"Right... I was curious too.."

우진

"....I don't know either.."

지훈

"What? Then let's tell Jimin hyung."

여주

"Yeah. You didn't do anything wrong. Even if you did something wrong to them, bullying them is a bit much."

우진

"No... You know... Hyung, you're a trainee so you have a lot to worry about... But I don't want you to worry about me like this.."

여주

"still..."

지훈

"Ha... I won't tell you. But if the bullying gets any worse, you have to tell us!"

우진

"okay.."

Woojin said that, but

The next day too...

He didn't come to school the next day either.

So I asked Jihoon.

여주

"Is Woojin really sick? He hasn't been to school for two days already."

지훈

"Well... I don't know... I want to go into the room, but they told me not to come in because I might catch a cold."

여주

"You must be in a lot of pain..."

We were so foolish back then.

I should have known from the moment Woojin stopped showing up...

Woojin skipped school for another week after that. Jihoon and I, finding this odd, told the teacher we'd be leaving school early. After confirming Woojin wasn't home, we went out to look for him.

여주

"Woojin!!!!!"

지훈

"Park Woojin!!!!!"

Then we find Woojin crouching down in the playground with his head down.

여주

"Uh...Woojin..."

우진

"..."

지훈

"Hey. Park Woojin, raise your head."

우진

"S...I don't like it..."

지훈

"Listen...!!"

여주

(shudder)

우진

(shudder)

It was the first time.

Seeing Jihoon getting so angry and yelling like that...

Woojin slowly raised his head.

Me too... Even my twin, Jihoon, felt really miserable seeing Woojin's face after such a long time.

There were bruises all over his face, and there were many wounds that looked like they had been hit by a blunt object.

Jihoon and I were shocked when we saw this sight.

I rolled up Woojin's sleeves, who was wearing long sleeves.

The arms were more serious than the face.

He was wearing black, so I couldn't see any blood, but when I lifted his clothes, I saw numerous sharp, puncture wounds.

I couldn't contain my anger at seeing this, so I was about to report it to the police right away.

But this time too, Woojin stopped him.

여주

"Why.... Why aren't you reporting it!! I'm so angry when I see you like this!!"

지훈

"That's right! What are you afraid of that you don't report it?"

우진

"Me too...I want to report it too!!"

우진

"But... if you report them, they'll kill you!!"

여주

"No. I can't kill them. Even if I wake up from the dead, I'm too scared to kill them."

우진

"No... It's because you can't see... When you look into their eyes when they talk, they're full of life..."

지훈

"Let's report it anyway... How long are you going to be like this..."

여주

"Yeah. We can't stand to see you hurt even if we die."

우진

"No... Really no...."

우진

"I'm scared... that you guys will really leave me..."

여주

"...."

지훈

"under..."

우진

"Let's not report it..."

지훈

"okay.."

우진

"really?"

여주

"Instead, you have to stay with us at school and on the way home."

우진

".....okay.."

but

They cleverly targeted Woojin when Jihoon and I were called by the teacher or when we were going to the bathroom.

Woojin couldn't stand it any longer and called Jihoon and me.

Jihoon and I, who felt something strange, ran and ran to school.

Jihoon and I arrived at the rooftop.

But by then it was already too late.

Woojin was falling from the rooftop railing.

여주

"Woo...Woojin!!!"

지훈

"Ah... no...!!"

(dump)

Jihoon was so shocked that he collapsed.

I too was so shocked that I developed aphasia.

but

Woojin must have called Jimin oppa too, because Jimin oppa also came to the rooftop.

As I said before, I was suffering from aphasia and couldn't speak.

지민

"Lady... I heard something strange earlier..."

지민

"Two boys said that you, Yeoju, have been bullying Woojin since the beginning of the semester..."

지민

"No...?"

(Beep beep)

The siren sound grew louder.

여주

"...."

지민

"Why...why...!!!! Why on earth!! Is that so!!!"

여주

"..."

지민

"Speak up!!!"

지민

"Please speak..."

지민

"I also don't want to believe this situation right now..."

여주

'...Can't you...trust me a little..?'

I wanted to talk.

But I couldn't do it.

The two boys Jimin oppa is talking about are probably the ones who bullied Woojin.

It seems like Jimin oppa is Woojin's older brother, so he must have put the blame on me.

지민

"You... don't say anything until the end..."

지민

"I never thought our Woojin would have a hard time..."

Jimin carried Jihoon on his back and went to the hospital.

I wish Jihoon had woken up and cleared up my misunderstanding, but unfortunately, he suffered from partial amnesia.

He didn't lose all his memories, he just lost the memories of being bullied.

Ji-Hoon erased his own memory because it was too painful.

Jimin oppa told Jihoon that Woojin died after being hit by a car.

Of course, to other brothers too.

And Jimin oppa tried to punish me by holding a school violence committee meeting.

However, no disciplinary action was taken due to insufficient evidence.

After that, Jimin-oppa quit being a trainee and studied hard to become a judge.

Because the perpetrators put the blame on me.

From September 4, 2216

I was bullied at school ever since the day Woojin died.

From when I was 16 until now when I am 18

I can't go out much these days because I'm at the hospital.

Going to school is a hellish day.

Because of those kids

I am

I am

I'm not good at anything

I did nothing wrong

I did nothing wrong

I did nothing wrong

I did nothing wrong
