Have you ever been like that?

After having fun, your arms or legs suddenly start to tingle and you realize that they are injured.

Something like a finger cut on a piece of paper without even noticing it after reading a book.

Or, there is a story like that.

Something like a car accident, or something like that, where a normal person suddenly collapses after a minor collision.

Why are you suddenly saying this?

As you might have guessed, it’s because that’s how I am right now.

… … weird. It was clearly fine earlier.

It seems like it’s been a little swollen since when.

I guess I should have calmly accepted the bandage Hong Yeon-seo gave me instead of showing off my pride.

Okay, well, actually, it’s even weirder that it was kicked like that and it was still fine.

I thought I somehow managed to avoid it, but I guess that wasn’t the case.

I guess I should say I was lucky, but I was glad that I was away from the girls and that I didn’t notice that I was sick right away.

I organized my thoughts carefully.

Can I run with this much patience or not?

It’s not a good idea to look for a substitute now… I guess I have no choice but to run.

I tied a familiar-looking strap around my ankle.

It was the strap that tied each other’s ankles that Hong Yeon-seo gave us yesterday after the 3-person, 4-leg race.

For some reason, he gave it to me.

I don’t know how effective it will be, but I decided to use it as a temporary measure instead of a bandage.

With the strap tied tightly around the ankle, it looked more noticeable than when the two of them were tied together.

It kind of feels like I’m walking outside with the key given to me by the sauna on my ankle.

… Is it better to just solve it?

Still, I felt like the pain was relieved a little because there was some pressure.

In the end, I decided not to solve it and waited for the ready signal.

* * *

‘huh… ?’

When the game started and everyone was focused on the runner, Hong Yeon-seo’s eyes turned to Seo Yi-jin’s ankle.

‘Why that…’ .’

When Hong Yeon-seo was questioning Seo Yi-jin’s ankle, which was tightly tied with the strap she had given her, Seo Yi-jin stood on the same line as the runners to take over Lee Se-ah’s baton.

The corners of Hong Yeon-seo’s eyes trembled as she looked at Seo Yi-jin.

‘What is the gait…? … . ‘Seo, really?’

When she realized the truth, she stamped her feet.

As soon as she saw Seo Yi-jin’s slightly limping gait, she, who had seen such symptoms more than anyone else, immediately noticed his current condition.

Should we bring Seo Yi-jin in now?

However, doing so would completely ruin the game.

There’s no way you can find a replacement for a runner who is preparing to run right away.

Even at that moment when Hong Yeon-seo was wandering in confusion, Lee Se-ah came closer and closer.

“Ah… .“

In the end, Hong Yeon-seo’s trembling fingertips could not reach Seo Yi-jin.

She ran so hard that a ray of sweat ran down her cheek and beaded on the tip of her chin. She made eye contact with Hong Yeon-seo, who was waiting.

Lee Se-ah saw Hong Yeon-seo shaking and approached her with a puzzled expression.

“Yeonseo, what’s wrong? What’s not good?”

“Me, not me… … .”

Hong Yeon-seo looked at Lee Se-ah with a tearful expression on her face.

Woo… Run a little slower.

She let out a meaningless complaint, but she knew that no matter how slowly Lee Se-ah came in, her hand would not have reached Seo Yi-jin in the end.

“It looks like the area where Jin Lee was injured earlier hurts… .”

“… … What!?”

Lee Se-ah, who became thoughtful after hearing the series of circumstances from Hong Yeon-seo, also turned her gaze towards Seo Yi-jin, who was running.

* * *

Ugh.

It was okay when I was walking, but when I ran, the weight on my ankles was definitely different.

During the practice game, I ran like crazy, but when I actually watched the game, I was criticized for playing rashly.

That’s because the win has already been confirmed.

I arrived last among the runners in the same line, in front of the next runner, with a dead body.

Even in this state, only a true superhuman can come in first, and I guess I’m just an ordinary person.

Seong Yu-rin, who was taking the baton from me, looked at my ankle with a stern expression, and then reluctantly ran away, and I sat down.

“Jinah Lee. Where does it hurt?”

Teacher Chae-yeon Jeong, who was standing with the runners and watching and cheering us on, approached me.

I don’t know if it was because I felt sick, or if I was just curious about my grades being different from usual.

“My ankle is a little swollen.”

After hearing my words, the teacher finally shifted his gaze to my legs.

“Where… Huh! Boo, it’s not that swollen! Did you run like that in this condition? Let’s go get treatment quickly… !”

Through the medical class called by the teacher, I was eventually taken out on a stretcher.

This is why I’m just like the guy who tackled me during the day.

* * *

“Fortunately, my bones don’t seem to be damaged, but they are in bad condition because I ran too much when the sprain occurred. I will have to wear a cast and use crutches for at least two weeks.”

The health teacher patted my leg, which was tied in a cast, and said,

According to what the teacher said, it was a simple measure, but for that, it felt good.

by the way… .

“This week is a bit long.”

“In order to avoid having to receive treatment for a long time, you should have come right away and received treatment instead of overexerting yourself while injured.”

“No, it was okay at that time… … .”

“ Looking at the video, it didn’t look like he was okay, shouldn’t he have come to the infirmary and checked right away─?”

“… Yeep.”

I kept silent in response to the health teacher’s flawless attack.

I heard you saw the video and how you got hurt, so I should have something to say.

“Let’s go to the hospital right away.”

When the health teacher spoke, I pointed to my tied legs.

“Yes? You’ve done all the casting.”

As soon as I finished speaking, the health teacher turned his neck and glared at me.

“… … .”

Under pressure from the health teacher who was glaring at me, I quietly lowered my head and answered.

“… Yes.”

“Whew… . That’s because it was a simple test, so it’s not clear. I guess I saw it wrong, and it could be that my bones were actually damaged. In order to take appropriate action, you need to get a thorough examination, student!?”

I was discouraged by the rapid-fire nagging from the health teacher.

“Yes, yes.”

Once the situation was somewhat settled, teacher Jeong Chae-yeon spoke up.

“Then, let me ask you a favor. Health teacher.”

Bowing my head, the teacher left me in the care of the health teacher.

Well, the homeroom teacher has to supervise the students in other classes besides me.

As was the case with Yoon Ji-woo, it looks like she will have to go to the hospital with a health teacher.

The public health teacher answered with a smile, and after a moment tilted his head.

“Yes. Leave it to me. … But it seems like something similar happened a few days ago?”

“Ah… Yes, it was.”

I guess this public health teacher was the same person as Ji-Woo Yoon.

By the way, is it immigration…? .

The thing that got me into trouble was, of course, the club’s problem.

Not only is next weekend the festival day, but I also have to film more videos this weekend to submit to the preliminaries… .

At this point, I feel sorry for the manager and don’t know how to show my face.

I thought several times that I was careful to prevent something like this from happening.

I felt like I wanted to let go of the defender who tackled me again.

I prayed earnestly that the cast could be removed at least on the day of the festival.

* * *

After arriving at the hospital, my phone started ringing like crazy.

The culprits were, of course, the four women who were the first to notice that I was injured.

No, not just those four, but also the guys on the soccer team.

Surprisingly, I even received messages from classmates I hadn’t talked to asking if I was okay.

… Still, it was these four who were the hottest.

After rejecting Lee Se-ah’s incessant calls, I sent her a text message telling me to calm down a bit.

In response, of course, I received a ton of messages asking me how to calm down, but I left a message saying I would contact you later because I needed to get a checkup first.

I also apologized to the guys on the soccer team for not being able to participate in the after-party.

I also responded to messages from my classmates about how they were doing.

… I’ll let you know later on the club talk.

As expected, a little mental preparation was needed.

* * *

After completing the examination and tests at the hospital, fortunately no abnormalities were found and I received the same diagnosis as the first time and was put in a cast again.

After that, I was originally going to be discharged right away, but the public health teacher reserved the hospital room.

They said the kids were coming to visit and told me to wait.

The health teacher who left me at the hospital left for school again, and I followed the guidance of a nurse I had seen once to the hospital room.

… No, wait a minute. It’s a somewhat familiar location… … .

“Ah.”

“uh.”

When I entered the hospital room, what I saw was Jiwoo Yoon’s face eating snacks.

… I think the teacher deliberately set up the hospital room here.

This can be happen. Because we are classmates at the same school.

If there was room in the hospital room, I would probably have done the same thing if I were a teacher.

What is he doing here instead of being discharged from the hospital?

“… Weren’t you discharged from the hospital?”

“I was hospitalized again to recover quickly. however… Pfft. Are you hurt too?”

“Well, that’s how it happened.”

Ji-Woo Yoon burst into laughter without any hesitation.

Is this funny? men and horses?
