26 – Freshmen
“Please put your hands away… Why are you doing that…”
The student body president put her hand on Jinah Lee’s shoulder.
What is it, what is it? What kind of situation is this..?
“Leave that bastard and come play with me”
“…I don’t like that… Yoo Seon-ah…”
“Hey. Are you going to just watch this?”
“It hurts”
Like a blonde tanned bully by the beach, the student president put her hand on Lee Jin-ah’s shoulder and kept talking about playing with him.
The student president’s hand was placed on Lee Jin-ah’s small shoulder, and Lee Jin-ah frowned between her brows, as if she didn’t like it.
Though the student council president doesn’t have a very strong physique, he’s still a man and a woman. They have different units of power.
Even if it is an anchovy, it seems that at least one Lee Jin-ah can be harassed with one hand.
“No, over there, Mr. President, he’s so sick…”
“So, what are you saying. You bastard!”
The student body president screams at me.
“Kyaa! Yoo Seon-ah, help me!”
The student body president shouted, and Lee Jin-ah, who was next to her, trembled and shed her tears one by one.
Shouldn’t it be dried?
I tried to spur her chair and jump out. Her body braked as if there were brakes on.
… It’s a bit strange. No… It’s not a little weird, it’s a lot weird. Everything here is just weird.
Was the student council president originally, just like that – a neighborhood bully?
Looking at him now, he’s wearing a leather jacket or something. You styled your hair all-back too.
Obviously the last time I saw her, she was wearing a neat school uniform with a neat parting of 2:8.
Assuming that the image at school and the image outside are different, that is possible. Even talking is hard, like lines in a movie. A story that bully A, who is beaten by the main character in a movie, would tell.
Usually in a play, when a bully like this goes around, someone always appears, stop it! It was a situation where I had to say. And then a story in which the protagonist defeats the bully in style.
Because I felt like I was forcibly sucked onto the stage where a play was in progress.
Shouldn’t I also… Stop it for a moment…? I thought so, but this situation is all strange right now.
Whether or not Jina is being threatened by the student council president. She looks around calmly.
I’ve only put my hand on her shoulder since before, and I’ve only talked like that – never hit her or grabbed her head.
What are all the employees doing here? He is harassing other guests like a bully in the neighborhood, but no one can stop him.
It’s strange that at such an expensive, fancy restaurant, nobody’s stopping them when their VIP guests are being threatened.
And you, student president.
Can you take care of yourself?
I’m not some kind of homeless person in front of Seoul Station, and the student president who has more to lose than me behaves like that..?
This makes no sense. You’re not thinking of retaliation..?
I’m sure a student president would have a lot to lose.
“Yoo Seon-ah, help me quickly”
“That…”
Besides, that’s Jina being bullied? I’m just… Shaking while shedding tears. Now that I see it, it’s a bit awkward.
In elementary school, I watched Ji-na Lee’s voice and what she did when she was really in danger. Looking at it now, it seemed like a lie.
I quickly turn my gaze back to the student president.
The glasses are different, and the clothes are different. A lot has changed, so I didn’t notice. Looking closely… One cheek was swollen.
Like going to the dentist. A puzzle is put together in my head.
That, the other day when I went somewhere with Lee Jin-ah and the student council president. Could something have happened between the two?
That’s something that can happen.
The sportsman also said something to Lee Jin-ah the other day and was beaten up by men in suits.
I think that’s something that could happen to the student council president. What do you know?
With a slap on the cheek, let him be an actor in this little play he has made. Would he have been given such an order?

The student body president and I met eyes.
“Don’t play with that guy, why don’t you play with me..?”
The chairman grabbed Jinah Lee by the wrist and tried to force her to stand up.
Ever since her hand was placed on her shoulder, Lee Jin-ah’s brow furrowed even more.
The Chinese character for “Cheon” Is drawn between the eyebrows.
Has it become boring? According to the original plan, I should have defeated the student council president like a warrior on a white horse and saved Lee Jin-ah in a cool way.
I didn’t seem to have any intention of doing that.
Everything that looks annoying and annoyed is revealed on his face.
“..Quickly..Quickly…”
With things going this way, it is the student council president who is sweating.
Her hair, tucked in an all-bag, was dripping wet with sweat.
Is it just my misunderstanding that I look like someone who has a hole in his stomach and can’t go to the emergency room, rather than a third-rate bully who harasses women at some restaurant?
“Hey… That’s what you’re doing”
“Ah…You bastard! Who are you! How dare you…”
“Just go- I have something to say to Yoo Seon”
“..Ah, yes I see!”
“What kind of student body president can’t even do this properly…”
-Huh…..
As soon as the student council president told Lee Jin-ah to go, she ran away without looking back.
Then the waitress started bringing the food and laying it out on the table.
This and that- This is truffle, and that is made from 6-month-old calf’s ribs.
In the current situation, none of that came into my ears.
Lee Jin-ah, who is sitting in front of me, looks at me.
“Yoo Seon-ah, I have a question for you. Just earlier, when he put his hand on my shoulder and touched her hair… How did it feel..?”
Looking at it now, it seems that Lee Jin-ah will thrive even if she acts.
Until a while ago, I had the appearance of a delicate heroine who wanted help from a really cool protagonist. Not anymore.
Muddy brown eyes. The moisture around her eyes had long since dried up. The tone is subtly rigid.
How did you feel when the… Student president talked to you…?
What… It’s just what I’ve felt so far. Suspicious weird. That much…?
“Yoo Seon-ah, what would you have done if this was real and not fake? If I had to do something like that, would you roll your eyes?
Yoo Seon wasn’t originally this kind of guy.”
She was Lee Jin-ah, who confessed in her own words that what had just happened was a play.
She has no intention of hiding anything.
“Yoo Seon-ah, what do you think Yoo Seon would be like without me around? If you know that, you’ll have to do something like desperately protect me or save me.
You did well in the past. But why don’t you do that now?”
“Who protects whom? You can do it all by yourself.”
If there is no Lee Jin-ah around me, I will finish high school in the future. I quietly returned to the facility and studied.
A life of going into any factory and tinkering, or carrying bricks at a construction site.
Then I drank sometimes
-Previously, when I say, Mirae talked to her granddaughter,
-Yes, this person should lie moderately…!
-Pahahahaha
With a smile
The truth is that it was a lie… Such a dream-like story.
I thought that living like that wouldn’t be bad.
Because it was too much of a burden for me to receive undeserved affection from a girl from a rich family who was of such a different dimension…
What can I do with you?
“Yoo Seon… You don’t need me? You don’t need my help, right?”
“I… I am that… I’m fine… I don’t think I need help. No… I mean. Because, I’ve already received a lot from you.
I want to stop getting help now. I’m satisfied with this, I think it’ll be okay if you don’t do anything to me hehehe-“
I spit out the words without thinking, and I try to fix it quickly.
Lee Jin-ah’s brown eyes blur slightly. The brilliance that had been shining brightly disappeared, and the cloudy eyes.
As I watched the glowing amber turn into dark caramel, I knew something was wrong.
There is an old saying that even if you spill and pick up rice, you can talk but not pick it up.
“I’m very happy. I’m so happy! Just like that, using other people to test our relationship. I hope you don’t do things like that… Bully others.
I just want to say that. It’s okay if the kids make fun of me for jumping roe deer hehehe- Well, it’s a fact anyway, but you can’t make a fact out of it, can you? I don’t care about that!”
“Yoo Seon-ah, be honest. Do you hate going out with me?”
“No, that’s…! Why, I don’t know why Jin-ah is saying that. How could she not like me…?”
To be honest, Lee Jin-ah is burdensome. It’s true. She honestly says that the granddaughter of such a big company likes me, but it’s natural for her to feel pressured.
And again, I hate being pityed, and I hate twisting my course, and- I hate putting on plays that even a child like this wouldn’t be fooled by.
Still, I hate the person Lee Jin-ah. She doesn’t like it She’s annoying. Not that.
It’s just… A little… A lot of pressure.
There is no difference between like and dislike. That. It’s just a difference in distance.
Because I think it’s a different matter between being nice to people and getting close to them…
“I don’t think so. Yoo Seon-ah,?”
“No, I like you”
“Then kiss me here”
Jinah Lee pointed her finger to her lips.
“…Uh…? Right here?”
“I don’t like Yoo Seon.
“It’s one thing to like a kiss on the lips.”
“Why is that a different problem? Yoo Seon-i can’t do this much to the person he likes?”
“…What”
“Look at this. You hate me!”
