Exists, but does not exist
Episode 28
윤정한
...
Jeonghan listened quietly to my story until the end.
After telling you all about what happened today, my hands started shaking.
Even though I was used to indifference, this was a shock I had never felt before.
Jeonghan stared at my trembling hands.
윤정한
..sister,
Jeonghan carefully held my hand.
Jeonghan's warm hand wrapped around mine.
윤정한
... sorry,
윤정한
How on earth am I supposed to comfort this person...
I gave a faint smile.
강여주
I'm grateful just for listening...
The fact that Jeonghan just listened to me without saying much was comforting.
Besides, holding my hand made me feel a little more at ease.
윤정한
Are you going home now?
강여주
.. no
강여주
I don't want to go in..
I felt like I was becoming more honest when Jeonghan was in front of me.
윤정한
Do you want to go to the nearby playground together?
강여주
You... what about studying...
윤정한
My priority is my sister.
Jeonghan's words made my heart beat faster.
강여주
...
윤정한
Because I can stay with you until dawn,
윤정한
Come on!
Jeonghan gently held my arm and led me to the playground.
The atmosphere at the night playground was quite nice.
윤정한
Would you like to sit on the swing?
강여주
good
We sat side by side on the swing.
It felt new because it had been so long since I rode a swing.
윤정한
Sister,
강여주
huh?
윤정한
Thank you for telling me.
강여주
...
윤정한
I feel good because I feel like I'm special to my sister.
강여주
.. huh
I looked at Jeonghan and chuckled.
윤정한
Am I special?
Jeonghan looked into my eyes and said.
I flinched slightly.
강여주
Yeah, that's right.
강여주
From the moment I first revealed my secret.
윤정한
...!
Jeonghan's eyes widened, and soon his face turned red.
강여주
..what is the test tomorrow?
I felt awkward for no reason and changed the topic of conversation.
윤정한
Literature... and this,
윤정한
Physics... economics.
강여주
Then I just have to look at literature.
윤정한
I have to take physics too...
Jeonghan pouts.
강여주
I have two subjects to study, so I should hurry up and go study.
윤정한
...
윤정한
Stay with me a little longer.
윤정한
I'm fine
강여주
..thank you so much
I was about to get up from the swing, but Jeonghan's words made me sit back down.
.
..
...
We chatted on the swing for an hour.
As we were talking, we didn't even realize how much time had passed.
강여주
..what is it? it's already 9 o'clock
강여주
I have to go now.
윤정한
Are you feeling better now?
Jeonghan looked at me worriedly.
강여주
Yeah, thanks.
I smiled brightly.
윤정한
.. thank god
윤정한
I'll take you home.
I smiled and nodded.
강여주
Thanks for bringing me.
강여주
.. Thanks to you, I came here with peace of mind
Jeonghan smiled and nodded.
윤정한
If anything else comes up, please contact me.
윤정한
Even if it's a message sent at 4 in the morning, I will definitely read it.
강여주
Aren't you worrying too much about me?
I chuckled.
윤정한
I'm very worried.
강여주
That much?
윤정한
.. yes
윤정한
nice-,
Jeonghan stopped talking.
Jeonghan made a face as if he had said something he shouldn't have.
강여주
Huh? What did you say?
윤정한
.. no
윤정한
Study hard..!
Jeonghan left the place in a hurry.
강여주
Uh uh...
강여주
bye...!
I waved my hand at Jeonghan, who was walking away from me at a quick pace.
강여주
what..
강여주
What were you trying to say...
-Clang,
어머니
You said you were going to the convenience store, why are you coming home so late?
강여주
...
I didn't respond.
어머니
Heroine..?
-bang,
I ignored my mother's words and entered the room.
The room that was usually so cozy now felt messy.
I thought I had calmed down a lot thanks to Jeonghan,
When I saw my mother's face again, I started to feel shaky again.
강여주
ha...
I took a deep breath.
강여주
..I should study
I sat down at my desk and took out my literature textbook.
-The next day-
-Drunk,
고하율
Heroine..!
강여주
uh..?
고하율
You look so tired..
강여주
Did you study too hard..?
I smiled awkwardly.
고하율
Are you only looking at literature today?
강여주
huh.
고하율
i envy you..
고하율
Good luck on your test!
Ha-Yul smiled at me.
강여주
Yeah, you too
My head was pounding and I felt dizzy, maybe because I stayed up all night studying.
The moment I was about to sit down, my vision became blurry.
And then I just fell to the floor.
고하율
.....!!!
고하율
Kang Yeo-ju...!!!!
고하율
Kang Yeo-ju....!!!!!!!!
전원우
Heroine!!!!
My consciousness became clouded.
I could hear the faint sound of students murmuring.
고하율
Kang Yeo-ju!!!!!!!
