It's bad, so it's better
Episode 2
-The next day
My resolve to say hello to my partner was shattered, as he didn't get up even once until the end of the seventh period.
임여주
Even at lunchtime
Ah, but I don't have time to think about that anymore.
Because the midterm exams are coming up soon.
임여주
"I transferred schools right before exams, so I have to study harder."
From now on, I need to completely turn off my mind and focus solely on studying.

-The day before the exam
담임선생님
Hey guys, tomorrow is the midterm exam. I hope you all studied hard?
반아이들
Aaaah----
담임선생님
Did you study??
반아이들
Yeah...
담임선생님
You guys are almost in your third year of high school. There's less than a year left.
담임선생님
You know you have to work harder during this time, right?
반아이들
yes...
임여주
"Okay, I studied hard for the test and reviewed a lot, so there's nothing to worry about."
담임선생님
Okay, now I'm going to eat lunch quickly and come back to do some self-study.
반아이들
yes !!
임여주
Ugh...
임여주
'Why does my stomach hurt so much..?'
임여주
'Did you feel sick from eating lunch earlier?'
My stomach hurt so bad that I went to the infirmary and took some digestive medicine.
임여주
after..
임여주
'It's still three...'
임여주
'It'll be okay, I guess'
-Test day
임여주
Ugh...ugh...
My head was spinning and my stomach was aching like it was going to burst.
임여주
'Ah... I have a test today...'
Even though I was sick, I had to take the test, so I dragged my aching body to school.
I felt like I was going to collapse at any moment.
.

담임선생님
Now, turn the test paper over.
담임선생님
Don't cheat
담임선생님
Do not do anything suspicious
담임선생님
If there is any such misconduct, you will receive 0 points immediately.
담임선생님
(something something)

-Test begins
임여주
'I can't concentrate at all'
My head feels like it's going to burst and I'm going crazy, but I can't even focus on the test questions.
I feel my eyes going white
임여주
Hahaha..
임여주
What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?
I'm sweating cold and my hands are shaking.
-There are 5 minutes left until the end of the test.
임여주
Oh, what should I do?
Now it's time to solve all the problems and take out the OMR card.
임여주
'I couldn't solve all the problems'
Even for problems I've already solved, I can't quite remember what I was thinking when I solved them.
And so the test ended.
After failing the first exam, I felt dizzy and even more depressed, so I failed the next exams one after another.
Now that the exams are over, reality has finally set in.
임여주
ah..
임여주
'It's ruined'
I felt like crying
임여주
What should I tell my mom?
임여주
ha...
.
.
임여주
ah...
I came back from a test that was so bad on a day when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, so I feel depressed even though the cherry blossoms are so pretty.
I didn't even want to go to school today.
The thought of the academy checking my scores and calling my mom made me even more reluctant to go.
.
.
I didn't want to go to school, so I just turned around and walked away, and then I came across a dark alley I had never seen before.
임여주
'Ah... I don't know the way here.'
I forgot that I hadn't moved in very long.
Besides, my route was always school-academy-home.
임여주
ha...
임여주
'I need to go to the hospital too'
I even lost my way
