Killing Game
Round 2 - Mistakes



Pfft-!!!

...?

What the heck, why didn't the bomb explode...?

I slowly opened my eyes when the bomb didn't explode despite the loud noise.


김여주
..???


박지훈
Tch... how stupid... I thought you were a strong woman. Huh?

Park Ji-hoon got hit by the ball instead of me.


김여주
What are you...!!


박지훈
Well, it was still pretty cool.


김여주
what...!!



박지훈
You said you liked it.


Phew-!!!

With those words, the bomb exploded.

Red petals fall gently on my cheeks.


김여주
Ah...ah...

Clear water droplets drip down along with the red petals.


강다니엘
..her


박우진
Kim Yeo-ju!!!! Are you okay???!!


김여주
That sick X...I was going to die...I was going to die..!!!

Because of me.

I lost someone again.


김여주
It's all up to you...!!!!

I don't know who you're talking to.

He just cries and shouts as if he's angry.


하성운
Wake up, Kim Yeo-ju.


하성운
Are you going to easily take away the life that Park Ji-hoon barely saved?!


김여주
...

Yeah, the game isn't over yet.


박우진
...are you okay?


김여주
huh..

He smiles weakly, then straightens up and prepares to throw the ball.


Pfft-!!

Calmly take them down one by one.


하성운
...Is he in okay condition?


강다니엘
Well, what can we do? I like it this way for now, so let's just leave it alone.


김여주
...

Every time I threw the ball, a shower of red petals fell on my hand.

My hands feel like they are burning on the hot flower petals.


???
"Game over-!!"


???
"Wow, this was a really interesting game?"


???
"It was better than expected, Miss Yeoju."


김여주
...shut up


???
"So the winner of this round is..."


???
"Students of classes 3 and 4!! Congratulations!!"


박우진
Then the kids that are left over there...


???
"You don't need it anymore, do you?"

The moment he said that

The air has become cold.

A familiar scream is immediately heard

남학생 1
Kkaaa ...

여학생1
Gyaaaaah!!!!

남학생 2
S..save me!!!!

A loud scream was heard, and then it became quiet as if no one was there.


???
"Now, students in classes 3 and 4, please rest comfortably."


김여주
....


하성운
Hey, are you okay?


김여주
...

Because I made a mistake

I missed the ball

Park Ji-hoon is dead.

Because of me...

Guilt is creeping in.

He sits down in the corner of the auditorium, almost collapsing.


박우진
..at least cover this.

He took off his jacket and covered it with me.


김여주
Yeah...thank you

I stare blankly at the auditorium with empty eyes.

It's because of me...


박우진
...Lie down and rest for a bit.


김여주
..huh

I closed my eyes and leaned against the wall.

I believed that if I dreamed, I would be able to escape this hell, even if only for a moment.

...stupidly speaking
