Cheer up, Teacher Yeoju... I have something urgent to do, so I'll go first...

Then Teacher Namjoon left too. I quickly looked back on my phone. Someone had uploaded a video of what Jimin and I had been talking about earlier.

Since it was Daejeon, many kids had already seen it, and the comments were coming in at a rapid pace. While reading the comments, Jimin's comment caught my eye.

💬Delete it now. If you don't want to die.

'widely'

윤여주

Ha... Walk a little while looking ahead. I almost fell.

윤여주

Jimin, why are you still here...?

박지민

I'm worried. Don't look at it. Don't even read the comments. Even if you don't want to care, you can't not write.

윤여주

Are you... okay?

박지민

What about you, teacher? Are you okay?

윤여주

Me? I'm okay...

박지민

Then I'm okay too, if it's okay with you, teacher.

Even though I wasn't okay, I just smiled and pretended to be okay. The news that Jimin liked me spread quickly to the whole school.

The next day, I arrived at school and saw a crowd of boys in the teachers' office. As I walked toward the office, they looked at me.

B1

Is your teacher Yoon Yeo-ju?

B2

It's really prettyㅋㅋㅋ

윤여주

That's right...

남준 쌤

Hey, what are you guys doing?

B1

Yes?! No, I'll go!

B2

Hey, come quickly!

윤여주

······.

남준 쌤

Are you okay? What did they say?

윤여주

Am I Yoon Yeo-ju?... But when I look at Namjoon, everyone is gone.

남준 쌤

I was at school here for a while, and he's famous for being scary when he gets angry...

윤여주

It's reassuring to have someone like this at school.

남준 쌤

No, let's go in.

윤여주

yes.

I didn't know that Jimin would be watching me and Namjoon laughing while talking about all of this...

If you enjoyed it, please give it a thumbs up.
