08. School Violence Committee
Today is the day of the school violence committee meeting. Joohyun goes to school with a relieved expression.
박수영
Joohyun, hello hello!
배주현
Hi, I'll accept it today because it's the day the school violence committee is meeting!!
박수영
After all, there is no one else but us!!
배주현
Stop it now
박수영
..Okay (sigh)
Arriving at school-
하성운
Cabbage and ghost high?
박수영
Why am I a ghost?
하성운
You are a noble, so you are a noble, ah!!!
박수영
Sure...
강슬기
Hi Joohyun!!
배주현
Hello, our garden!
황은비
Joohyun, are you here?
배주현
(Ignore it completely and pass by.)
임나연
Hey, Joohyun...
배주현
Huh? Oh, it's Nayeon. What's going on?
임나연
What time should I go to the school violence committee meeting?
배주현
Ah~ School Violence Committee? Right now, right now!
박수영
Phew!
배주현
Are you splitting it?
박수영
No, it's not
배주현
Nayeon, let's go!!
임나연
Yeah
In the auditorium where the school violence committee is held, children of the same grade are sitting.
여자 아이들
Wow.. Seriously, what did Joohyun do wrong?
여자 아이들
Yeah yeah yeah
여자 아이들
Oh my, Im Na-yeon...
Nayeon approaches the children.
임나연
(Running his head) Hey guys? I came here because I thought you were swearing at me haha. But I don't think you guys have anything to say either.
여자 아이들
Yeah, why can't we? We didn't join in, lol. Funny.
임나연
As I said to another friend last time, who are the kids who get embarrassed, shun, and curse at Bae Joo-hyun when she touches them?
임나연
..You guys, what are you going to say to me?
임나연
There won't be any...right, friends?
Quietly head towards the perpetrator's chair.
위원
We will now begin the school violence committee.
위원
First, please tell us about Ms. Bae Joo-hyun's actions.
배주현
The perpetrator, Im Na-yeon, has been continuously committing violence against me with male students since middle school, and then pretending not to have done anything.
배주현
That too... continued for about 3 years.
It's noisy
위원
Everyone, please remain quiet. Now, Ms. Im Na-yeon, the perpetrator, admits her guilt?
임나연
..I admit it...
위원
Then, Im Na-yeon will be transferred to another school.
위원
Then we will conclude the school violence committee.
Nayeon later transferred schools, and Yerim, Eunbi, and Jihoon became close again thanks to Joohyun's forgiveness.
박수영
Hey bat!!!! Big trouble, big trouble!!
박지훈
Why why what!!
박수영
I'm hot, just two ice creams haha
박지훈
..should I kill him?
박수영
I'll give you four thousand won. The rest is yours.
박지훈
call
Jihoon goes out.
박수영
I don't have any money left, aren't I stupid? LOL
황은비
Oh, that's really pathetic...
반장
Joohyun~ Who is calling?
배주현
(Who is it? There's no one to call..) Ah.. Okay!
박수영
I'll go with you!
배주현
I'm in the classroom~huh?
박수영
..Okay, come quickly!!
배주현
Hey~
Go out.
배주현
...Im Na-yeon?
임나연
Yeah, it's me
배주현
What's going on?
임나연
That's...I came to apologize.
임나연
When I was in middle school, I was literally crazy and would go around hitting up anyone. I really wonder why I did that. And when I was in high school, I was so jealous of how many friends I had around me. At the time, I was known as a vixen, so it was hard to make friends.
임나연
All my friends are gone, so I tried to steal all your friends, and I thought about killing you, and I thought then you could all be my friends. Do I really look stupid and pathetic? I felt it too, so I just... I just came to sincerely apologize.
임나연
You don't have to accept the apology. I'm sure you hate me, but you can hit me hard. I'll take it all.
Joohyun holds Nayeon in his arms.
임나연
What are you doing?
배주현
You've been through a lot too, right? I'm not that picky, right? Just... just cry as much as you want. You can cry here. If you keep it in, it'll just create more stress. Just cry as much as you've had a hard time.
Nayeon starts to cry and then bursts into tears.
10 minutes later-
배주현
Are you done crying now? Haha
임나연
Oh.. how did I lose all my clothes?
배주현
What if I lost my clothes? My friend said it was hard, but I'm okay, Nayeon.
임나연
Joohyun... could you be my friend?
배주현
Hey, of course! You're such a nice girl haha
임나연
Joohyun-ah.. thank you so much. I'll be happy to call you anytime I want to hang out!!
배주현
Okay Nayeon hehe
Nayeon smiled brightly. It wasn't a fake smile, but Nayeon's genuine, pretty smile.
After that, Nayeon and I met at a cafe, had drinks, went to a karaoke room, went shopping, and then parted ways.
배주현
Today was really fun, Nayeon!
임나연
I also really had a lot of fun after such a long time. Let's meet again next time and play together!
배주현
Yeah! But should we... next time Yerim, Eunbi, and Jihoon meet up and talk things out?
임나연
...That would be a huge betrayal for me, so let's bring him back next time and solve it.
배주현
Okay haha see you next time
임나연
Bye see you next time!!
Nayeon is really pretty when she smiles, and we parted ways with the thought that I wish I could see that smile every day.
