Kid, are you excited for me?
Episode 22: So Kind as a Fool


After talking with Jeong-eun for a while like that, my mind calmed down a bit.

((Drumroll

I heard the door open and Taehyung came in.

Then he sat down and put his head on the desk.

Maybe what I said hurt you. I didn't mean to hurt you...

....................

Hey, you're disappointing.

It's disappointing.

disappointment...

The word disappointment kept lingering in my head. It was the first time I'd heard it from Yeoju in 13 years.

Was it really that disappointing that I liked the female lead?

My heart really ached. It hurt because I felt like I'd been rejected without even being able to confess.

The guys I dated in middle school weren't people I liked, I just dated them.

This is the first time I've felt this way. Liking someone.

But why is it that the female protagonist, who is like my family, is my first love?

I felt like I would die from being suffocated if I stayed in the same space with Yeoju any longer, so I picked up my bag and left the classroom.

I left a text message to my teacher saying I was leaving work early because I wasn't feeling well and headed home.

....................

After lying down for a few minutes, Taehyung suddenly packed his bag and left, and I tried to follow him, but I ended up not following him.

Come to think of it, I think both Taehyung and I need time to think.

"Haa... Why did I really say that..."


최여주
"Taehyung is a bit of a playful kid, but he gets hurt easily..."


전정은
"So, why did you say something you didn't mean when you know Kim Taehyung so well?"


최여주
"That's right. I guess I was a little crazy."


전정은
"Ugh... I don't know. You figure it out yourself."


최여주
"This traitor"

I'm the one who takes out my anger on Jeong-eun even though I know full well that it's my fault.

....................

Knock knock.


전지현
"Oh, our daughter is here."


최여주
"Yes, how have you been?"


전지현
"It's me. How have you been?"


전지현
"But, heroine, what happened at school today?"


최여주
"No. Nothing happened?"


전지현
"A kid who never skips school is leaving school early."


전지현
"Where does it hurt? You've locked yourself in your room and don't seem to want to come out."


최여주
"Oh... really?"

I felt guilty for no reason, thinking that it was all my fault.


최여주
"Let me talk to you."


전지현
"Will you do that?"

dripping.


최여주
"Taehyung, I'm going in."

As I entered Taehyung's room, I saw his school bag thrown on the floor and Taehyung on the bed covered with a blanket.


최여주
"Taehyung..."


김태형
"I want to be alone, so go."


최여주
"I'm sorry"


김태형
"I don't know why you're saying sorry, but please just go."


김태형
"I want to be alone today"

Taehyung's voice was so desperate that I said a few more words and left.


최여주
"I'll wait until you feel better. I'll go."

Only after the female protagonist closed the door and left did she get out of the blanket she had covered herself with.


김태형
"Ha... If this is really the case, what do you want me to do?"


김태형
"You're so stupidly kind"



김태형
"I can't hate you"
