The relationship between bullying and bullying
[What Is Happiness?] - EP.39
A few days later, I left that dreadful hospital and readjusted to my normal daily life.
My daily life was always the same, but I guess I should say that only four things have changed.
The first is that the school bully Jeon Jungkook became my boyfriend, Lee Yeoju.
The second is that the bullying by Bae Suzy's group has gotten worse.
Third, after another transfer student came to our class, I also gradually started to find my original self again.
And finally,
민윤기
What do you mean I'm dating, you bastards?
The fact that Jeon Jungkook's friend, Min Yoongi, is going on a blind date.
Ah, until now, my acquaintance with Min Yoon-gi was merely a fleeting one, so we haven't really exchanged words or heard any news about each other.
At this point, it is obvious that you might wonder, "Why is Min Yoon-gi's blind date interfering with the female lead's daily life?"
Actually, what we should be focusing on is not Min Yoon-gi, but his blind date partner.
Min Yoon-gi's blind date partner is,
수민
Yeoju, I'm going on a blind date!!
It was Sumin, my elementary and middle school classmate.
Since last week, old friends have started reaching out frequently after hearing the news that I had been hospitalized, and among them, the one who contacted me most often was Sumin.
To think that someone like Sumin is getting a blind date from someone at our school...
I couldn't even believe that he was Jeon Jungkook's friend.
Of course, right now he's not Jeon Jungkook, but my boyfriend?
배수지
It's Korean History starting at first period, guys!! Let's brace ourselves lol
이성경
Ugh, what the heck, I really hate this...
임나연
Ugh, that's really terrible.
이지은
Our schedule today is totally messed up...
이성경
Ah, I mean...
이여주
Am I the only one who didn't hear that the first period changed to Korean History...
이지은
We're going to be late, let's hurry.
이성경
Heh, yeah, yeah—it's next to the science lab on the 3rd floor, right?
배수지
Right, let's hurry up lol
The class bell rang immediately after the children left.
이여주
...Oh no, what do I do? I'm going to be late!!!
Thinking I needed to get going quickly, I stuffed whatever was on the desk into my pocket and hurriedly left the classroom.
Without even opening a note that was on my desk.
[Today, the first period is P.E., so come to the gym.]
이여주
Ha...ha...it must be here..?
이여주
But why is the light off... There's nobody here?
Just like every day, it is clear that I have been fooled by Bae Suzy's group again.
이여주
....No wonder the kids kept laughing..
I walked around the school looking for the children from my class, but they were nowhere to be found.
이여주
So all that's left is the gym... sigh...
I ran to the gym with all my might, my eyes blazing.
임나연
Hey hey, dunk!!!
이지은
Ah, the ball is so heavy ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
이성경
Lee Ji-eun! You're doing great! Lee Ji-eun! You're doing great!
배수지
Lol, Lee Yeo-yeon is probably wandering around like crazy by now...
Squeak-
이여주
...under...
As I opened the gym door and entered, the children in my class focused their eyes on me.
배수지
W...what? Why did you come...
전정국
Lee Yeo-ju!!
이여주
Ugh... it was really tough...
전정국
Where have you been? You're just back now? Huh?
이여주
...Since Bae Suzy's group... said Korean History was the first period....
이여주
I went to the 3rd floor... next to the science lab....
이여주
I couldn't find it... so I really... wandered around... and came here..
전정국
...wait.
Jeon Jungkook quickly ran to where the children were, snatched a ball from one of them, and went to where Bae Suzy was.
전정국
(Grins) Do you guys want to play basketball with me?
이성경
Yeah! I like it, Jungkook!!
배수지
Ugh... I'm really bad at this ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ Please let me off the hook ㅠㅠㅠ
이지은
Yeah, yeah!
전정국
I'm the only team member, so you four do it.
임나연
yes!
I wondered what Jungkook was doing, but as time went on, I came to understand him.
He wasn't trying to play a basketball game with the kids; he was just pretending to play while subtly hitting them.
임나연
K-k-kyaak!!
이지은
Ugh...
이성경
Argh!!
배수지
Kya... Kyaaaak!!!!
전정국
Ah. Sorry.
배수지
...Damn it, Jungkook, you...!!
Bae Suzy kicked the ball hard at the goal, but far from going in, it came right back out.
배수지
Ugh..!!
전정국
Heh... This is fun, right?
임나연
Noo... it hurts...
전정국
...How do you guys whine so much even after getting hit just a little?
이지은
That's because it hurts..!
배수지
So... it hurts so much ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
이성경
I can't get up...
전정국
Then, Lee Yeo-ju.
임나연
uh?
배수지
Lee Yeo-ju?
전정국
How do you think Lee Yeo-ju feels? You guys beat her to death every single day.
전정국
But even so, he doesn't say a single word about being in pain. Please, reflect on your actions and live a better life.
이지은
.....
배수지
Oh my god....
임나연
Jungkook, but...
전정국
Lee Yeo-ju!
이여주
yes..?
전정국
Kiss me. I did a really good job, right?
이여주
N... Hey, even so, how could you give me a kiss here...?
전정국
Then I'll do it?
side.
In that moment, my face flushed as if it were cooked.
전정국
...You're so cute.
Jeon Jungkook must have found me cute, because he messed up my hair and left the gym.
이여주
....Jeon Jungkook, seriously..
담임쌤
Hey guys—sorry, but could you sit down for a moment? A new student has arrived.
학생들
What?? Are you coming again??
임나연
OMG, I wish he were a guy. He's really handsome...
이지은
So... that would be really great...
배수지
If the transfer student is a girl, are you going to abandon our Lee Yeo-ju and make her your target?
이성경
Call call!
이여주
...They say he's a transfer student..
전정국
Hmm...is there something you're worried about?
이여주
N...no.
전정국
...Surely you're not worried that I'll look at him instead of you, are you?
이여주
Ah, it's not like that!!!
담임쌤
Now, now be quiet over there—
담임쌤
Two new transfer students have arrived. One is Kang Ha-eun, and the other is Eun-bi. You'll all get along well, right?
이지은
Ah, what is this? They're all women...
임나연
...Hey, it could be a girl's name!!
강하은
Hey, you're really funny lol. You even judge someone's gender based on their name?
임나연
O... huh? So you're the transfer student!
은비
Hey Haeun, the kids here seem a bit rude... OMG, is that Lee Yeoju?!
이여주
Huh...? You're Eunbi... and Haeun?
강하은
OMG, you crazy female lead!!!!!!
은비
OMG... Yeoju, I really missed you...
이여주
Why are you guys here...
강하은
We both just transferred! Our previous school wasn't that great... hehe.
은비
By the way, I heard Sumin is getting a blind date? At this school.
이여주
Yeah... right. I'm being introduced to someone named Min Yoon-gi.
전정국
...Are you guys the transfer students?
강하은
Who are you? Why are you suddenly butting in?
이여주
Guys, this is my boyfriend..
은비
Ah, seriously, Lee Yeo-ju was just a baby back in middle school, but now she's even meeting that guy who puts up such a wall...
전정국
'..A man who puts up a wall;'
강하은
What's your name?
전정국
jungkook jeon.
은비
Ah~ I'm Eunbi! And this is Kang Haeun! We're both friends from Yeoju's middle school, hehe. And let's get along well from now on, okay?
강하은
Why are you introducing me?
은비
Hehe, it's my choice, right?
배수지
Hey transfer students—you guys, come up to the rooftop for a moment.
강하은
What's wrong with that woman acting like an old fogey?
은비
Lol, I see, he doesn't even know his place.
은비
Haeun, aren't you part of that group of kids who used to judge gender based on names?
강하은
Ah, so is he in charge of showing off?
배수지
...Stop talking nonsense and follow me.
강하은
Uh. Yeoju, I'm here~ I'll be right back!
은비
me too!!
이여주
O... uh!
이여주
That's incredible... How could they treat Bae Suzy like that... so openly...
강하은
What's wrong with you?
배수지
...Should I say he's the boss of our class?
배수지
Anyway, nice to meet you!
은비
You're not seriously holding out your hand to shake ours right now, are you?
배수지
Uh... uh... it means I look forward to working with you in a good way... something like that.
은비
Take your hands off. It's disgusting.
강하은
You're the one who bullied our female lead, right?
배수지
N... No? But how do you guys know Lee Yeo-ju...?
은비
Ah, my middle school classmate. I heard he just got back from the hospital. You guys aren't the ones involved, are you?
배수지
Ah... no!! No way! We were so preoccupied worrying about the female lead, too...
강하은
...Anyway, why did you call me here?
배수지
Let's just be close friends from now on..!
강하은
Did you call me all the way here just to say that? You're so petty, seriously...
은비
But you were acting really tough toward us in class earlier, what's up with you now?
배수지
Th-that's because I'm the most popular in my class...
강하은
Ah, so if you're successful, you become a grumpy old man? Is that it?
임나연
Suji!
이지은
We're here... transfer student?!
은비
Hey, you guys are the ones who judged the gender, right? You came to the right place. Take your boss with you lol.
임나연
..I..I'm sorry!
배수지
Hey... guys?
이성경
Let's go inside first, Suji.
배수지
O... uh...
배수지
Those bitches are stronger than me...
담임쌤
That's all for today's class! Good job everyone!
학생들
Goodbye~
이여주
Oh, Sumin!
수민
[Yeoju, can you come out now? I'm seriously so happy today ㅠㅠㅠ]
이여주
Ah! Then of course I have to go—I heard you skipped school today for a blind date?
수민
[Huh? How did he know? Hahaha. Yoongi asked me to go to the amusement park today, so I went!]
이여주
Oh really? That sounds like fun. Where should I go?
수민
[Come to the Sweet.com Cafe !!]
이여주
huh!
은비
What, what? Sumin skipped school for a blind date?
강하은
Wow... that's really amazing.
이여주
Hahaha, yeah, I'll go first! See you tomorrow!
은비
Woong-ya~ Say goodbye and let me know!
강하은
Contact me too!!
이여주
huh!
전정국
Yeoju, it looks like the blind date between Yoongi and your friend went well.
이여주
Oh, really?
전정국
This bastard Min Yoon-gi is going absolutely crazy right now. He keeps acting like he loves it and bullies me lol.
이여주
Hehe, that's just how it is when you're a couple, I guess!
전정국
How can someone I really hated at first change like this in an instant?
이여주
..Isn't that about you?
전정국
Hmm hmm... Yeoju, let's go together! Min Yoon-gi said he's coming to sweet.com too.
이여주
Yeah, yeah, that's right!
수민
Ah, so the female lead and I were fighting with water guns lol. It was really cute back then, right?
민윤기
You're cuter now.
이여주
Oh, Sumin!
수민
Kyaaa, Yeoju!!!
이여주
Whoa, what's up with you? Why have you become so pretty?
수민
Hey, I'm just the same... What about you?
이여주
Hehe, I haven't changed either?
수민
Oh my god, what is that? Just sit down. I ordered an iced Americano because I wasn't sure what you'd like. Is that okay?
이여주
Yeah! I eat anything well-
전정국
If you drink too much caffeine, you can't sleep at night.
이여주
....It's okay, just this once-
전정국
Just try calling me saying you can't sleep, and I'll come over and teach you a lesson.
민윤기
Phew... You sit down too, Jeon Jungkook.
민윤기
Let's talk now—how did you end up meeting Lee Yeo-ju?
전정국
I actually confessed first at the hospital.
수민
Oh my... hospital...
이여주
Sumin, I actually had fun at the hospital lol. It's funny and sad at the same time, right?
수민
Yeah yeah, our female lead is really amazing ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
전정국
What about you guys?
민윤기
Us? Us... well...
수민
We were really funny-
수민
Huh...? Why isn't he coming...? Could it be that he doesn't like me...?
민윤기
Oh, I'm sorry—I missed the bus..
수민
Ah... no problem! Thank you for coming, hehe.
민윤기
Wow, your smile is so pretty..
민윤기
O... ah, yes, yes. But since we're the same age, I'll speak informally to you—let's go inside now.
수민
So, what's your ideal type?
민윤기
I am you.
수민
uh?
민윤기
You're my ideal type, Sumin. Let's date.
수민
...okay-
수민
How did it end up like this! It's such a sudden turn of events lol.
이여주
Th-that's true, seriously lol. Jeon Jungkook, you should hang out with me at the amusement park later too.
전정국
It's not playing, it's a date, you idiot haha. Yeah, I get it.
민윤기
Hello. Uh, why? Now? Ha... Wait, here I come.
수민
Yoongi, why?
민윤기
...I heard one of the basketball team members got seriously injured. I think I need to go see him.
수민
I... I'll go with you too!
이여주
Then let's go, Jungkook! We should go on a date too!
전정국
For once, you're going first... Let's go. Where do you want to go?
이여주
Let's go downtown!! I'm hungry..
전정국
I'll take you downtown and treat you to something delicious, so wait for me, my dear.
전정국
Are you really going?
민윤기
I have to go then. I heard my junior got hurt. See you later. See you tomorrow, Lee Yeo-ju.
이여주
Oh..! Sumin, you should contact me often too ㅠㅠㅠ I'm going to miss you ㅠㅠㅠ
수민
Yeah, yeah, I get it. Let's set a date for double dates when vacation comes around!
이여주
okay!
전정국
Goodbye.
수민
Yeah, you too!
이여주
Yay, let's wear these as matching couple shirts later!
전정국
Hahaha, okay, I get it. But you seem a bit carried away.
이여주
That's just how I am, hehe.
Today was a lucky day for me.
Even my old friends transferred here, and to think I've even regained my old mood...
Of course, I know that this happiness won't last a lifetime.
However, I think it isn't bad to enjoy this small happiness—that is, this very moment.
Hehe, Erises!
Are you having a good vacation?
My school starts next Tuesday, so I have to stay on edge.
Ah, and let me introduce the people who appeared in this episode!
수민
I am SuminjjingisJapdeok!
강하은
I'm Dingtteok!
은비
I am Unneul-nim!
So, here are the three of us today!
Since the event was happening, my typing definitely increased. I was in such a good mood that I kept looking at the comment section instead of writing the episode I was supposed to write... hehehe.
I trust you will leave lots of likes this time, just like last time♥
