Private tutoring
17: Tutoring the cheapskates
-A few years ago, at Seyen High School.
임나연
"Hey Kim Yeo-ju! I heard you're dating Kim Min-soo from the next class? I'm so jealous."
박지효
"Who confessed first?"
김여주
"Huh? It's just... well, I was the one who asked her out first."
김다현
"Wow, she's totally a girl crush~"
Since I started dating Kim Min-soo, I've become more popular with the girls. I used to be the quietest person in class, but now kids naturally flock to my desk. It's been a wonderful time.
여우연
"But I feel a bit sorry for Kim Min-soo. I heard his family is good too."
배주현
"Hey, Yeo Yeon. Why are you talking like that? We're dating because we like each other."
김여주
"Joohyun, don't be like that."
임나연
"Still, Yeoju, be careful. When you see Minsu around you..."
박지효
"I'm not worried. Everyone likes Minsu. Don't worry, Yeoju."
김여주
"What are you talking about? That won't happen, right?"
I was living in such a precarious state of happiness, unaware of anything.
* * *
김여주
"Minsu, you were waiting for me? Cleaning finished a little late today..."
이지훈
"I heard you're dating Kim Yeo-ju?"
전원우
"Why are you dating someone like that? You're going to fall for me."
김민규
"You don't really like Kim Yeo-ju, do you?"
Those boys were always mischievous. Still, I'm sure Minsu will speak well of me. Yeah, that's right. Surely Minsu...
김민수
"Hey, Kim Yeo-ju, I accepted her because she likes me so much. Honestly, do you think I would like Kim Yeo-ju? A girl who only knows how to study?"
김여주
"....!"
What does this mean? You just accepted me? Then what have you been doing to me all this time? My heart sank. Was this a reality I was unaware of? I didn't even know that...
* * *
김여주
"Hey, Kim Min-su."
김민수
"why?"
김여주
"Don't you have anything to apologize to me for?"
김민수
"Apology..? What did I do to you that you're apologizing for?"
김여주
"her.."
김민수
"What's wrong with you these days? It's so annoying."
김여주
"What, are you annoyed? You told other guys that I dated you because I thought you were cute. I heard it all."
김민수
"...So what? Are you going to kick me? Don't do something you'll regret."
김여주
"Yeah. Let's break up. I really liked you, but I didn't know you were the kind of person who would play with people's hearts like this. I'm going."
김민수
"Hey... Kim Yeo-ju!"
That day, I ran down the hallway, a route I'd never run before. I thought if I didn't, Kim Min-soo would cry. I ran home in that state. And that's how Kim Min-soo and I parted ways.
박지효
"Hey, Kim Yeo-ju, I heard that while dating Kim Min-soo, she flirted with other guys."
임나연
"Oh my gosh, really? This is so gross."
김다현
"Actually, I knew he would do that."
배주현
"Why don't you guys be quiet? Stop spreading such rumors!"
김다현
"What nonsense? Kim Min-soo told me this himself."
임나연
"Joohyun, why do you keep hanging out with someone like Yeoju? Her personality is really bad."
박지효
"Just cut it off~"
So this is what they mean by something worth regretting? From the day after we broke up, I spent the rest of high school living in hell because of the rumors Kim Min-soo spread.
What was even more hellish was that even after we broke up, Kim Min-soo lingered in my heart for a long time. I felt like a fool when I said we should break up.
