Side Story (12)
How would I describe this atmosphere in words?
Well, it feels like the oxygen is gone from the world?
Trouble breathing atmosphere?
“… Why did you come to my house?”
“I-I came because the teacher asked me to deliver the performance evaluation test papers… “
“Really? Is that the end? You don’t have any other intentions, right?”
The homeroom teacher sent me a performance evaluation test paper for me, she said.
She said the name of the female student who brought the test paper was Lee Min-chae. She
I remember her as a girl who talked to me often.
However, she seemed to regret coming to my house.
“You can use the People of Baedal for the test paper, right? Why did you want to come to the house where the man lives alone!?”
“The people of Bae and Baedal are not like that… Ho, I didn’t even know you lived alone… “
“Is it innocent if you don’t know! If you’re innocent just because you don’t know, why is there a police station!”
“Mi-sorry… my, i was wrong… “
Growl-
Luna patted Lee Min-chae, who was sitting uncomfortably on her floor, with her knee, arguing for no reason.
She really had no relationship with her, to the point where I felt sorry for everything.
“Luna, stop now. You said you shouldn’t bully people.”
“Don’t treat me like a dog! I have free will too!”
“Don’t bother me, eat the ice cream from the fridge.”
“Huh, I’ll only look at you this time! How lucky you are, Minchae!”
Finally, Luna left her seat and headed for her refrigerator.
There are three remaining.
I said as I sat down in front of the trembling Lee Min-chae.
“Sorry, there are some disobedient kids at home.”
“Gwa, it’s okay… Hey, can you release the test paper for now… ? So I can go home… “
Like taking a test at school.
Solve the performance evaluation paper in 50 minutes. And, Lee Min-chae collects the test paper and submits it tomorrow.
‘Is that the reason for the earnest expression?’
I have to solve it quickly because I can get out of the house quickly.
I nodded my head at Lee Min-chae’s reasonable idea.
“Okay, I’ll try to solve it as soon as possible.”
“Thank you…” But, what can I say to them… ? My eyes are too close… “
Beside Lee Min-chae were Estiya and Hare.
They kept their eyes fixed on Lee Min-chae without saying anything.
She didn’t understand what the hell she was thinking.
‘It’s like a predator trying to defend her territory… ‘
Anyway.
For Lee Min-chae to survive, I must solve the problem quickly.
“Hold on well. Go for it.”
“No, irresponsible.”
“You say you know something about Mr. ? I saw you at school the other day… That you talked to the old man with her blushing… “
Did something like that happen?
No, that’s not important right now.
Let’s focus on the problem first.
I turned my gaze to the test paper to see what kind of test it was.
From Noble mtl dot com
‘My subject is Literature. Read a scene from a short story and write your impressions.’
I can’t even take a picture of it.
It’s going to be a little long.
I started reading a short story with concentration.
However, it was not easy to block out the sound coming from the front.
It was said that he was having trouble concentrating.
“What is your relationship with the uncle! By any chance, do you like Uncle?”
“Oh no! I’m just a classmate! I absolutely do not like it!”
Saten, who was glaring at Lee Min-chae from behind, said.
“There are many people who are good at psychology on the Internet. I saw it there. A strong negative is a strong positive. Now you have confirmed that you like him in front of us.”
“Oh no! What are you talking about! That, more than that!”
Gulp-
Lee Min-chae summoned courage and shouted.
“If that is true… ! What does it have to do with you… ?! I heard it at school… ! Lee Jun-woo said that his cousin came from abroad to take a break for a while… ! Sa, meddling in your cousin’s romance is a no-brainer… ! Obsession and restraint… !”
Lee Min-chae screamed so loudly that it resonated in her house.
At that cry, I was worried about the noise between floors and thought it was a big deal.
“Ah, how far did you read?”
“Daddy, read it again quickly Lee Jun-woo! And, write quickly!”
“… “
Hearing Lee Min-chae’s cry of courage, Ha-re sat for a while without saying anything.
I kept my head down so I couldn’t see his expression, but I felt the atmosphere getting weird.
And I knew the identity of this feeling.
‘This feeling is when Hare makes a sudden acceleration… ?’
From the outside, Hare appears to have a cold heart. However, she has a very hot head as if to represent that cold heart.
When the head gets hot and starts to cook and release the heat.
She starts to run away like a locomotive pumping out her smoke.
Like she saw some weird text on the internet and tried to run over me.
At that moment, Hare jumped up from her seat and opened her mouth.
“Oh, don’t order the old man… ! Me, me and Uncle are not even cousins… !! I’m getting married soon… !! Don’t talk to the old man… !!”
Ssiik- Ssik-
Hare exhaled lightly and declared.
Most of the content was just fabrication.
Is it because the appeal was too strong?
Lee Min-chae, an ordinary student, took it as the truth and pursed her lips.
“Uh, uh uh… that, then… 4 People here… I’m not all cousins… ?”
“First of all, they are not cousins.”
“So, then you are saying that you are living with 4 foreign women as well… ? Even as a student… ?”
“I don’t think so.”
“Uh, uh… what… ?”
Lee Min-chae blinked her eyes and let out a rapturous voice.
Hare cooled down and sat down again.
She even snorted at her, as if she was no longer his opponent.
She couldn’t understand a woman’s fight at all.
‘Hmm, is this enough?’
The quantity is 8 lines.
I roughly wrote and handed over the test paper.
Lee Min-chae snatched the test paper, as if she had finally come to her senses.
“Me, I didn’t know you were such a promiscuous person! B, I’m going!”
Lee Min-chae immediately puts her test paper in her bag and runs toward the front door.
Estiya put on a sad expression, perhaps because she wanted to give her the holy water flowing in her hand as a gift.
I still followed Min-chae Min-chae to the front door to see her guest off.
“Still, thanks for coming. Even if I didn’t go to school, I could still get grades.”
“Okay, I just did it because the teacher told me to…” “
Lee Min-chae answered with a somewhat sad expression.
I felt too heartless to send it back like this.
So, I also put on shoes next to Lee Min-chae.
“M, what are you doing?”
“I’ll see you off until the end.”
“Oh, not much! It’s okay, it’s okay… !”
Lee Min-chae, her face turned red.
I went out the front door, not paying attention to her refusal.
Lee Min-chae rode the elevator with me with a nervous expression.
“… “
“… “
The inside of the elevator where there is silence.
She seemed to want to say something to me.
But she didn’t have the courage, so she sighed and withdrew her words.
It was the look I always saw in class.
“But, you.”
“Eh, huh?”
“I’ve been curious since the beginning of the semester, why do you keep trying to talk to me?”
If you want to talk, shouldn’t you be cool?
“Is it difficult for me?”
Am I difficult?
At that question, Lee Min-chae furrowed her eyebrows.
“It is difficult… But, today it’s more difficult… “
“Oh, it’s because of them.”
“Oh, no… ! It’s your fault too!”
Ding-
With Lee Min-chae’s cry, the elevator arrived on the first floor.
However, I was curious about the answer, so I decided to walk with her a little longer.
“Is it my fault that I am having difficulties?”
“Of course not! You always sleep in your class! You always answered like it’s no fun when I talk to you!”
“What should I do when I talk in an uninteresting way? Shall I force myself to laugh?”
“That’s the problem! You, you have no social skills at all!”
He’s talking nonsense.
Did I have too much stress at home?
She poured out her words like a burst dam.
“You always look unmotivated every time I see you! Move like a mummy during gym class! Eat the rice too! And, when class is over, go home right away! No cultural activities! If you want to talk first, I always have to be careful!”
“… It must have stolen a lot of me.”
“That’s what I’m curious about! How a kid with blurry eyes like you lives! So I raised my hand and went to your house to check… “
Chuuk-
Where did Lee Min-chae, who just ran amok like a monkey, go?
She murmured suddenly in low pressure.
“Seeing how they are living well with lively eyes… It just made me feel bad… What are they in the first place? Threatening people with force! Have you ever done something to them?”
“The house was forcibly occupied. But basically, they are good kids. I have a past.”
“… If you are, I know.”
After talking with Lee Min-chae, who was so rampant, I arrived at the subway station.
The conversations we had today were about four times as many as the conversations we had at school.
Lee Min-chae gave me her last words as she got on the subway.
“Still, I come to school sometimes. The teacher was worried.”
“Sometimes I will go. And what I saw today… “
“Guide to rumors. And it wasn’t good at home, but it was nice to see you today. My mind is at ease.”
Lee Min-chae waved her hand and disappeared on the subway.
What the hell did he want to do?
The moment I thought that, I heard Saten’s voice behind me.
“Perhaps she liked you.”
“What, what, why are you here?”
“I secretly followed you. That woman might kidnap you.”
“In this world, classmates don’t bother trying to kidnap you, Saten.”
“You don’t know that, you were actually kidnapped by us, right?”
“… “
It is true.
By the way, as Saten said, is it true that Lee Min-chae liked me?
She thought about it, but I immediately thought about Minchae Lee.
It was because even four people were too much, and I couldn’t think of even one more person.
“Should I buy something to eat on the way back?”
“Good idea, mister. I want to eat pork for the first time in a while.”
“Then let’s go buy some pork belly at the mart. One… “
“Because of Luna, you will have to buy more than 10 servings.”
I took a card out of my pocket.
‘Sorry mom. I’m going to spend some money today… ‘
My mom will send me a text before going to bed today.
I felt fear and anticipation at the same time.
I quite liked this harmonious life.
