Drumroll

여학생 2
"Hey. You there. You bespectacled idiot. Can I see you?"


김태형
"...Uh...huh? Right...now?"

Kim Taehyung, who had been studying until break time, unable to put the pencil down, suddenly jumped up from his seat with startled eyes.

Kkudangtang!

In a panic, he even knocked over a chair.

여학생 1
"Stop being so noisy and do something about that slow body."

The three female students who humiliated the male students with mocking voices were notorious for being cruel and cowardly at the school.


김태형
" ..Ah...mi..sorry....I'll go now..."

The boy, as if he knew what was going to happen, put his glasses, cell phone, wallet, etc. in his bag and followed them out.

widely.

As soon as the classroom door closed, Sorim, who had been watching the whole situation from next to Yeoju, continued speaking.


이소림
" ....That's not right, is it..?"

Sorim was chewing his lips in anxiety, patting the female protagonist who was sleeping next to him.

배여주
"...Um.....what, did you say..."

To Sorim, the female protagonist, who was sleepy and slurring her words, seemed only frustrated.


이소림
"What's wrong with you these days? You're the kind of kid who never sleeps at school. Are you having trouble sleeping at night?"

The heroine wiped her eyes, which were completely open, and with her blurred vision, she listened to Sorim's nagging with one ear and let it out the other.

배여주
"..Ah. I don't know.... Don't talk to me because I'm sleepy..."

And then, he buried his face in the desk.


이소림
"....Well then, that's right. What do I expect from you..."

Knock knock.

The door opened and Kim Taehyung and three girls rushed in.


이소림
"Oh my...they're here again..."

Sorim, who had been glaring at them for several minutes with an annoyed voice,


박지민
"Student Bae Yeo-ju"

I was speechless when Park Jimin suddenly came in through the open door.


이소림
"..huh..oh my...Jimin Sun,.ugh!"

Sorim, who was waving happily and trying to call out her name, was barely stopped by Yeoju with her hand.


이소림
"Ugh..! What the hell?! Why are you here!!!" (*Are you crazy?! Why are you like this while sleeping!!!*)

The heroine stopped Sorim, who was trying to escape while causing a ruckus, and told her to be quiet.

배여주
"Hey, you crazy X..! Be quiet..!"


이소림
"Why me!" (*Why me!*)

배여주
"Well,.....well...it's just noisy, isn't it?"


박지민
"Student Bae Yeo-ju. What are you doing there?"

His faint smile was just a scary smile that gave the heroine goosebumps.

배여주
"...Ah.......I was...sniffing a little!! "


이소림
"Ah! What the heck is this embarrassing hiding! You brought me here, ugh!!"

Thinking that there were many moments today when she could have silenced him, Yeoju quickly turned her head to change the subject.


박지민
"Are you hiding because of the leader?"

Park Jimin's actions of smiling brightly and constantly using formal language only aroused the female protagonist's fear.

배여주
" ....That......yes..!! That's right! I'm scared of the... vanguard..."

There was no reason for the leaders to wander around, and no reason to be afraid, but they just answered randomly to end the conversation quickly.


박지민
"I am the leader."

The female protagonist's expression darkened suddenly.

배여주
" .....Actually...it's not the leadership-, "


박지민
"How scared must I have been to hide under the desk right away?"

배여주
" ..Ah..No..That's it, "


박지민
"Would you like to come out and talk to the leader for a moment? I needed you too, little one. This is perfect timing."

배여주
"Okay...just a moment..."


박지민
"The owner said he was going crazy because he wanted to tell the cat something."

In the end, the heroine was left speechless. To be precise, she had something to say, but she couldn't say it.

Jolle, jolle. Yeoju followed Park Jimin out of the classroom with a pouty face.

Quiet-.


이소림
"What...just now..."


정민재
" .......(shrug) I don't know..."

Rattling.

The senior immediately pulled out a drink and handed it to me.

배여주
"...don't...drink..."

As I pushed the drink back with my hand, he looked at me expressionlessly.


박지민
"Kitten. Are you upset?"

Thump thump. My heart pounded uncomfortably.

배여주
"..what does it matter to you whether I'm upset or not?"

Ah, this isn't it.

Like a child who is being naughty to his mother, all his actions and words came out in a whiny manner.

I tried to say it was okay, but mentally I wanted more.


박지민
"It's my first time seeing a kid cry, so I'm a little embarrassed."

Startled.

배여주
"Don't call me a brat. It makes me so fucking annoyed, dizzy, and about to cry!"

I've just become a cunning teenage girl now.

Just because I'm standing in front of a person named Park Jimin

Tiring ringing ...

The long silence was broken by the ringing of the bell.

배여주
" ....I'm going to go....I hope we don't meet again until tomorrow.... "

The more I looked at him, the more I wanted to hit him.

Until then, I thought that the words I wished I had never met him were memorable enough for him.

Of course, that thought quickly disappeared,


박지민
"I really shouldn't come looking for it later."


박지민
"You need to feel the pain too, junior. It always feels like I'm the only one who feels the pain."

He whispered something dizzying in my ear with heavy breathing, then smiled and went up the stairs.

I stared blankly at the spot where he had been standing.

Holding my shaking heart with one hand.

Knock knock knock!

To block out the loud music and the cheering of people, I covered my ears with two fingers.

배여주
" ....How can I find it in a place like this..."

I'm a minor and I'm in a situation where I have no choice but to go into the club to pick up my sister who got drunk while hanging out with her friends.

However, when I thought of my sister, who was lying around between the men's bodies, I felt a strange sense of impatience.

I quickly rolled my eyes and moved through as many people as possible.

Because I really hated being in the spotlight.


배정윤
" ..Jju!!! Come to work!! "

Jjuran, that's the nickname my older sister calls me.

I turned my head and saw my sister lying on the table, laughing like crazy.

You must have just been drinking again.

I sighed involuntarily. Aren't the men around you scary?

배여주
"Hello. This is Jeongyoon's younger sister. I'll take her quickly. I'm sorry-."

Why do I have to say this because of my sister? And to a complete stranger at that.

Since going home was the priority, I forced a smile and held my sister's arm with a bright expression.


전정국
"Can I help you?"

A man, presumed to be my sister's friend, extended his hand and offered to help.

I was quite worried. It was too heavy to take alone. But I also felt a bit uneasy about asking a stranger to come with me.

배여주
"Ah...it's okay! I can do it by myself."

Clang-.

At the nerve-racking sound, my shoulders automatically shrugged upwards.

직원
" ..Ah. What should I do..! This is an expensive cup...Customer! Wake up!"

Not far from our table, they seem to be stopping a drunk person.

Without much suspicion, I tried to turn my head forward again, but I couldn't help but notice a face that seemed familiar.


박지민
" ......... "

This is senior Park Jimin.

My two pupils shook.

Why is he at the club?

Her eyes, unfocused with misery, remained helplessly fixed on him.

Bam..

As my sister's arm was torn from my hand, the force caused the glass cup on the table to hit the floor and shatter.

Clang!

As I heard another ear-piercing noise, the staff came running towards me.


박지민
" ...... "

As if he had sobered up a bit from the sound, his eyes slowly moved towards me, his eyes wide open, and I finally met eyes with someone I didn't want to meet.

He stared at me.

My eyes are wet with bitterness.


배정윤
" ...umm.... "

Next to me, my sister was still drunk and tossing and turning.


전정국
" ..... "

There was a man standing there looking at me with a confused expression in his face.

He slowly dropped his other hand, which had been holding the chair, to the floor.

배여주
"Excuse me for a moment."

After speaking in a voice that was holding on precariously, I approached him with a slightly unsteady step.

Creak. Creak.

The chains that had held my heart towards him steady were now beginning to loosen little by little.

배여주
" ...senior.. "

I bit my lip hard to keep the tears from flowing.

배여주
"Really...is this it..? Don't you have any feelings? Why, to me,. Is that so? "

With sobs mixed in, each word was cut off sharply.

Thud.

I just came out, looked at my ugly self through the glass, and let out the tears I had been holding back.

That's how I ended my innocent, pure love at the age of 18, all by myself.

I promised myself that I would never talk to that bad guy again.

After already acknowledging that among those who had eaten badly, there was also Park Jimin
