Snow White and the Huntsman

<Episode 17>: [Bae Jin-young] Interference

"Well, congratulations on completing the entrance ceremony successfully-"

The teacher, who was resting his elbows on the desk and scanning the students, stopped at one spot as he neared the end of his speech.

"What kind of guy is this, sleeping on his first day of school? Wake him up. Sit wherever you want. That's the end of the meeting. Decide on a temporary class president and come to the principal's office."

He said he'd sleep right after entering high school? I don't know if it was his boldness or his lack of fear, but all the students' eyes were drawn to the teacher's words.

After hearing the commotion, I sighed and grabbed my headset, as all I could hear were empty speculations like whether he was a bully or a problem child.

What, a song...

Just before I turned my head, my eyes met with yours as you just woke up and ran your hand through your hair.

Your first impression is that you are the epitome of innocence with long hair.

It looked very delicate.

No, to be precise, there was something so alluring about you that it made me look only at you.

At first, that was all.

Concours, concours, concours. I skipped school for a long time, faced the cold at the entrance ceremony, and now, in the sweltering summer heat, I've been going abroad and on national tours without hesitation.

I thought it was a long-awaited break, and started to go to the classroom I had forgotten about, which I had written down on a note.

This seemed like the right place, but as I opened the wooden door and stepped inside, the flow of the class was interrupted. I tried to ignore the people who were all giving me attention, and went to an empty seat and sat down.

There was no way he would have a textbook, so the moment I touched the child sitting next to me,

You

"Ah, shit... Kim Jae-hwan dog..."

When I checked his face, he suddenly started swearing in his sleep, and I felt something familiar, so I looked at his name tag and thought, "Ah, that's him from back then."

The image was completely different. I held back the laughter that threatened to burst out, slowly turning my head to glance at you with interest.

You, who I watched, seemed like a child with a lot of stories.

He would stare blankly out the window, and when the teacher occasionally called his name, he would only vaguely respond, and during class, he would often lie down and sleep.

You were an outsider who didn't really get along with anyone, and you weren't exactly an outcast, but your unique charm kept drawing me to you.

Brown hair, pale white skin, a slim body, maybe tall. At first, I was attracted to your girlish appearance, but

Surprisingly, unlike your usual reserved manner of speaking, there were times when I felt strange seeing you raise your voice and smile while talking to someone.

When we met in the hallway, you didn't even give me a glance, but as we passed by, I was captivated by your unique scent and found myself standing still more often.

Summer passed by like that, and one day, I was so busy competing in all kinds of competitions that I didn't even realize that late autumn had arrived.

At the school I hadn't been to in a long time, the school I went to solely because of you, there you were, wearing thin clothes in the chilly weather, and even though you must have been cold, you didn't show it at all.

Even though I was staring at you openly, you didn't even look back once. As I was thinking about this, I suddenly swallowed a bitter feeling, thinking that you might not even know my name.

When winter break came and I needed a place to play the piano alone, I took a seat in the empty music room and it became my space. From then on, I was in a slump because I couldn't read the songs in the sheet music.

Maybe I just wanted to see you smiling so beautifully. I haven't seen you in a while.

As I was about to put my hands on the keyboard with a smirk, my phone rang and a message popped up on the window asking me to gather starting this weekend to prepare for the graduation ceremony.

It was noisy so I had to turn off the alarm. I checked the appointment time, pressed the alarm delete button, and then played the chords while thinking of the notes.

miss you.

It was a song with longing as its theme.

I threw open the classroom door without any expectations and just sat there, scrolling down on my phone.

Until someone slammed the door open with a loud bang.

I wasn't really interested, but then I looked back and saw someone tapping my shoulder at the right time during the pause between songs.

There was someone I wanted to see.

배 진영

"..what."

You rolled your eyes at my deliberately cold words. Cute, no. No. That's not right.

You

"Um... So what about the other kids?"

배 진영

"..I don't know."

Having only seen the appointment time, I couldn't even guess properly. I tried to hide my nervousness. I don't know why, though.

And after a while, when I headed to the music room alone.

When I realized that being alone with you was too difficult for me.

I realized it wasn't that I didn't know why I was shaking, but rather that I was pretending not to know. In short, I didn't know either. Until then.

I noticed you crouching at the end of the hallway, your head poking out, and I played the song I had been wanting to play for you.

I couldn't help but pretend to know you as you moved around so quickly, but I didn't want to send you out on the dangerous night road alone, so I followed you.

Purely of my own free will.

You

"Um, oh, that's right. I don't have any friends either. So."

When you deliberately teased me, "Do you have any friends?" I told you I didn't. I was completely blunt. My feelings for you were so complex that I added another word, worried I'd be hurt.

No, that was a crush.

You were flustered when he asked if you could do it since you didn't have any friends, so you started talking nonsense and then said yes.

Finally, a connection that I didn't know would continue has been made.

When I went to the next meeting, I saw you, having broken away from the crowd, running hurriedly. I don't know where you were going, but... well, I don't know. What caught my eye more than that was your thin clothing, which had been bothering me for a while.

I awkwardly said hello to you, and you answered me while getting hit by the sandstorm, so I impulsively wrapped my scarf around you.

I thought they were a bit tall, but they were still small, so I smiled at how close they were to each other.

As I was proudly looking at the scarf you had tied for me, you brought your finger near my cheek.

A warm hand caressed me even though the cold wind was blowing, and for a moment I stopped.

I could only see your lips, as if you were saying something, but I couldn't hear anything. Even the loud roar of the wind passed me by.

I stood there for a while, blankly staring at the place where your back was looming.

Normally, I wouldn't even bother with school clubs, but I happily finished preparing to see you, even if it was just for a little while.

Have you ever enjoyed going to school this much? No. I haven't been there many times.

I wasn't a performing clown since I was little, and I just wandered around playing the piano like crazy, so I had no way of having friends.

Now there's one more.

In a corner of my heart, a desire to not just be friends began to blossom.

I started to hope for something.

As I approached the classroom, everyone was staring at me as if they had never expected me to come to a place like this, so I tried to ignore them and sat down next to you.

I heard the forced voices of those around me trying to connect us, as you spoke to me in a slightly strange manner, while trying to make the most of your bright and superficial greetings.

Honestly, I felt good.

If you hadn't tried to force the homework onto you by giving you a free ride, you might have been a good kid.

I wondered if he was being treated like this, so I tried to use a curse word that I had never used before. It was funny because the guy seemed to be scared and the trick seemed to work.

As I was thinking, "Is that really how it is?", you stood up, threw down the few odds and ends you were fiddling with, and fought back forcefully.

What, you're doing just fine without me.

Just do pretty things.

You looked especially pretty today. Yeah, I admit it.

I felt like a typical drama heroine as I chased after you, who was roughly holding my hand. When I let go, you grumbled and it was cute.

배 진영

"Until now, I thought my ideal type was someone who was easygoing."

I admit it, because that's how you looked. You're my only friend, my ideal type.

-My first love.

And, I just blankly stare at you, listening to your words a little.

배 진영

"But I guess that wasn't the case. I like someone who breaks easily."

Very simply,

He pressed his lips to her forehead.

배 진영

"For example, you."

Do you know that?

The meaning of a kiss on the forehead is,

'I fell in love with you.'

I'm in love with you.

therefore.

From now on,

I'm saying I'm going to interfere.
