But the thing I found out is...

It was only possible if that person could be seen directly.

김예린

Hmm... It's fine! Since he lives next door, we'll probably see each other often.

I should have known then.

Who would have known? That we wouldn't be able to meet for a week.

김여주

It's already been a week... Haven't you met yet?

김예린

Yeah... red hair didn't appear either.

To be honest, since I had been doing it for a whole week, I actually wanted to give up.

How can you keep someone on edge for a whole week...

김여주

Still, if I hide in the cafes, won't I be seen someday? They say he's addicted to cafes just like us.

김예린

Hmm... Of course that is true, but...

Ding-

I turned around immediately, wondering if it might be red hair.

I am checking the person coming in,

As expected, the redhead was right.

김예린

Whoa..! Red hair!

Kim Yerin also seemed to be in a hurry, as she appeared to be looking for something.

김여주

Why? What are you looking for?

김예린

I... I don't know either! I'm sorry!

Kim Yerin struck a V-pose with a bit of quirkiness.

김여주

Yerina!! That's not it!

She looked at me as if she had already used up her powers, perhaps because the message had already reached Kim Yerin too late. I was angry too, but seeing Kim Yerin's apologetic face made me feel guilty for no reason, as if I were the one at fault.

I can't get angry at this rate..

김여주

...It's okay, let's aim for next.

김예린

Yeah... I understand. I'm sorry.

엄마

Yeoju, eat your meal.

김여주

Hmm... I don't really feel like eating...

엄마

You just need to eat a little.

I wasn't really keen on it, but I had no choice but to get up at my mom's words.

김여주

..mom

엄마

why?

김여주

Mom, do you think I can do it?

엄마

Which one?

김여주

...I told you I wanted to work legally.

Mom seemed to be thinking a little.

I instinctively knew it wasn't true from that look on his face, so I didn't want to hear the answer.

김여주

No, pretend you didn't hear that.

김여주

Hmm... I'm sleepy.

Three hours had passed since I started studying. Completely exhausted, I gave myself over to the bed.

Was I really that tired? I fell into a deep sleep just like that.

Huh? This is my living room.

It's Mom, Dad, and me, right? Then is it a memory from when I was little?

I paused for a moment.

아빠

Fuck off... How dare you mess with me, you little brat? I'm a person with destructive power, you know?

We suffered violence every day due to Dad's power. Every day, he would lift me up with one hand and drop me, kick me...

My mother silently endured that environment. However, being young, I actually resented her. I wondered, "Why doesn't she try to escape from this domestic violence?"

Perhaps I was the foolish one, because four years after I started suffering from domestic violence, Mom took my hand, saying that we seemed ready to leave.

엄마

Hold Mom's hand tight... I'll protect you.

Honestly, I didn't understand what that meant. I think I was actually happy because I thought we were going on a trip.

김여주

Great! But where are you going?

엄마

... a place where Dad cannot come.

Mom held her hand even tighter along with the words.

When I was young, I was in pain, but seeing my mother's expression, I endured the pain.

아빠

You bitches, that won't do!!

Huh?? This isn't right? Did Dad originally come to catch me?

김여주

Uh... Mom!!

....

Right, it was a dream.

Actually, it's a relief that it's just a dream.

As expected, I hate abilities.

If you mess with our Yeoju, you'll get a spanking!
