Exists, but does not exist
Episode 34


???
uh..?

???
Kang Yeo-ju.....?

Someone called my name from behind.

It was a familiar voice.


강여주
...!

Looking back, I couldn't help but feel bad.


정다은
Why are you here...

I had forgotten,

Why did you come back again?

My expression hardened in an instant.


윤정한
...

Jeonghan looked at me and Jeong Da-eun alternately.


윤정한
..shall we go?


강여주
Just wait.

I whispered to Jeonghan.


정다은
Next to you is... Yoon Jeong-han?

I glared at Jeong Da-eun.


강여주
Who is next to you?

Next to Jeong Da-eun was a boy she had never seen before.

I thought, "It's only been a while since I transferred schools, and I'm already playing queen."


강여주
Before, there was a fuss about Wonwoo being good,


강여주
Have you already changed?

With what courage did I provoke Jeong Da-eun?


정다은
.. what?

The boy next to Jeong Da-eun looked at her with a puzzled expression.


강여주
Who was it that threatened to steal someone else's crush?

I chuckled.


정다은
...


정다은
What the.....!

Jeong Da-eun took a step closer to me.


강여주
What more is there to say?


강여주
I came here to take some nice pictures, but I ruined everything.

I glared at Jeong Da-eun fiercely and then left the photo shop.


정다은
...Hey, Kang Yeo-eun!!

I heard Jeong Da-eun calling me from behind.

Jeong Da-eun still called me ‘Kang Yeo-eun.’

In the end, even after transferring schools, he didn't reflect on his actions.

Jeonghan followed me out of the store in a hurry.


윤정한
Sister..!


강여주
huh?


윤정한
What is that... passion...?

He seemed flustered at seeing me for the first time in his life.


강여주
... I don't know

At that moment, the tension disappeared and the strength left my legs.


윤정한
Hey, sister..!

I staggered.

Jeonghan caught me when I almost fell.


윤정한
Be careful..!


강여주
Oh.. sorry..

I felt like I had lost all my energy because I wasted all my energy fighting.


윤정한
By the way, Jeong Da-eun hasn't changed at all.


강여주
I know..


윤정한
Even after transferring schools, you still play queen..


윤정한
It's childish..

Jeonghan looked at the store where Jeong Da-eun was with a look of contempt.

In the store, Jeong Da-eun was still looking at us blankly.


윤정한
..Should we go somewhere else and take pictures?


강여주
Then

When we moved to a new location, I felt like I had lost something, but

For now, the urgent task was to avoid Jeong Da-eun.


윤정한
How about here?


강여주
It's neat and nice, right?

I hummed again and tried putting on the headband.


윤정한
..the headband is cute.

Jeonghan muttered.


강여주
Huh? What did you say?


윤정한
.. no..!


윤정한
Should we take a picture wearing headbands together?


강여주
Yeah, good!

I laughed out loud.

It was a rather quick emotional recovery considering I had just met my enemy.

Jeonghan and I each went into the photo booth holding a headband we liked.

It was my first time taking pictures like this, so I felt very awkward.


윤정한
Should we start with V?

Jeonghan led me well like that.

I copied all the poses that Jeonghan took.


윤정한
Try smiling more naturally!


강여주
Uh.. uh.. yeah..!

But the awkwardness still remained.

And yet, I was so happy.

.

..

...


윤정한
It came out better than expected, right?

Jeonghan stared intently at the printed four-cut photo.


강여주
.. huh

I felt my heart warming up.

I smiled happily as I looked at the four-cut photo.


윤정한
How is it, is it fun?


강여주
Yeah, totally.

I smiled brightly as I looked at Jeonghan.

I could see Jeonghan's ears quickly turning red.


강여주
What do you do now?

I asked excitedly.


윤정한
Well, um-, well


윤정한
What should I do?

Jeonghan looked at me with a bright smile.


강여주
Oh,

A tarot book suddenly caught my eye.


강여주
Do you want to see our tarot?


윤정한
Tarot is good


윤정한
I'm glad you're having fun though.


강여주
Yeah, it's so fun

I often walked towards the tarot shop.


강여주
.. hello-
