Rose in the bush
Episode 20


The next morning.


노윤서
Ha... Noh Yoon-seo. Your life is so varied.


노윤서
It would be better to draw a firm line with Beomgyu.


노윤서
Because continuing to give him room is something that even Beomgyu can't do.

I sighed as I looked at Beomgyu's clothes hanging on the drying rack.

And then he muttered quietly.


노윤서
I wish you didn't like me.

I tied my hair up tightly, packed my bag in one hand and Beomgyu's clothes in the other, and left the house.


노윤서
As expected... it's not called Hell Train for nothing...

The subway stopped while I was yawning because I was tired.

Thanks to that, Taehyun caught me when I almost fell forward.

Thanks to that, I was able to avoid falling.


노윤서
Oh, I'm sorry. Thank you for holding me back.

I kept lowering my head, but soon I raised my head when I heard a familiar voice.


강태현
Heuk, it's me, sister.


강태현
I don't know?

I sighed in relief when I realized it was Taehyun.


노윤서
Phew... It was you. Thank you. Thanks to you, I survived.


강태현
No. Did you get home safely after reading yesterday?

Taehyun asked me cautiously.

I already felt better yesterday thanks to Beomgyu.

Taehyun nodded, feeling sorry for constantly worrying about him.


노윤서
It's okay. It's a shame I couldn't become the female lead.


노윤서
Maybe I can get recognition for my acting skills even as a villain?

Taehyun also agreed with my positive answer.


강태현
Yes, if it's my older sister, it's definitely possible.

The subway started again and we headed to school together.

The subway was packed with people, so we had no choice but to stick together.

I was being pushed around by people without thinking

It was only after a while that I realized my back was against the wall.


강태현
Sister, just a moment. There are too many people...

In an instant, Taehyun and I became so close that I could hear each other breathing.

It became like I was inside Taehyun.

I turned my head to the side for a moment and held my breath.

"This stop is Seoul Institute of the Arts Station, Seoul Institute of the Arts Station."

A little while after the announcement sounded, the train doors opened.

I hurried out of the crowd.

I exhaled, but my heart continued to beat.


노윤서
...This is ridiculous, it's been so long since we broke up.

It was so absurd that I laughed.

When we broke up, I was in such a difficult time that I thought I would die

I felt ashamed of myself for changing my mind so easily.


최범규
Hey, we're meeting here again today? Did you take the subway? There must have been a lot of people...

Beomgyu found me and waved happily.

Beomgyu didn't seem to care what he said yesterday.


최범규
Did you come here alone, sister? Are you going to school?


최범규
Then let's go together, sister.

Beomgyu said as he lifted the bag in my hand.

I was trying to tell Beomgyu about the clothes in my bag...

Taehyun, who had found me, ran towards me.


강태현
Where were you, sister? I searched for you for a long time...
