“It was force majeure. I don’t want to talk to you again. And I know, even though I’ve only met you in person once before.”

    “… … … … ”

    A girl who forced her flowing black hair into place with a headband.

    Paper was scattered all over the table, as if he was working on an assignment.

    -Dahyun glanced at Yena with hazel eyes and spoke clearly.

    “It’s trash that passes responsibility onto others.”

    trash. I said, ‘You’re a piece of trash passing the buck.’

    This is my first time hearing such harsh words from someone else’s mouth.

    Except, of course, for my childhood friend in the cold war next door.

    When I’m being criticized by others, I’m not used to it and my heart aches.

    “Ugh, ugh.”

    At the funeral, the two created a heartbreaking scene.

    You said I would be the saddest after seeing him for such a long time and you hugged me! Why are you giving me a straight face now?

    As Yena grits her teeth to relieve her anger, Chimi delivers the next punch of violence straight to her solar plexus.

    “Hey, don’t you think that your nature is crooked to treat me like a scoundrel?”

    I was crooked.

    I told him that if he didn’t want his scholarship cut off or his past as a delinquent being revealed to the school, he should move to another club.

    ‘Hmm.’

    But it was a fair move.

    Dahyun tried to remain alone with Gyu-kyung in the club room.

    I clearly witnessed him smoking during middle school. In addition, didn’t they make you blow the horn? I heard it from behind the door.

    There is no way that all of her actions are good for Jeong-gi’s body and mind.

    -Anyone who fails to identify the possibility that bullying is taking place is a fool.

    “You. Isn’t it too narrow inside? okay. Sorry. It’s my fault for bringing up the family situation.”

    “That’s it. There is no need for an apology that is not in your heart. I hope I never see the handsome daughter of the chairman again! Oh, and.”

    As expected, talking to this child is uncomfortable.

    Jeong Da-hyun paused for a moment in what she was saying.

    Yena fiercely crossed her arms and fired at her arrogant junior.

    “And what?”

    “I feel sorry for Senior Jeong-gyu. What does it mean to be held captive by someone suffering from delusions of denial? Now, please stop looking down on your senior and set him free.”

    As soon as the former Nallari’s bold complaint ends, Yena takes a deep breath and mutters lowly.

    “Did Jeong-gyu do that himself? Are you saying I’m bullying you?!”

    “No. I know it when I see it.”

    “… … There’s no way you would know. What are you interfering with? I was with him for 12 years. It’s been like 12 years.”

    I lived next door to him ever since I came to Korea when I was 6 years old.

    It felt even closer because the two houses were next to each other on the most remote street corner.

    Relationships and time span more than 2/3 of life.

    -I don’t want to hear too much advice from a girl I haven’t seen in total for a year.

    “Is time the only thing you have to offer? iced coffee. That day too, he came at me and that person without any reason-”

    “Shut up-!!”

    -slap!!!

    Ahhh. I put my hand on my cheek.

    Dahyun hesitated for a moment, as if she was dumbfounded, and then rubbed her cheek.

    “… Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?”

    It’s not like you can’t defeat this woman with force.

    However, in high school, Dahyun vowed not to use violence as much as possible. When I protested honestly, he wiped his lips with the back of his hand and spoke.

    “I don’t like you either. Disappear right before my eyes.”

    “Yes, yes. all right. I’m still planning to go. It’s time to prepare dinner for my younger siblings.”

    After putting the papers in her bag, Dahyun stands up from her seat.

    Yena muttered in despair as she watched her junior kicking out the cafe door.

    “Yes, it was a good idea to separate them. It was dangerous. I am correct.”

    Of course, there are no plans to kick them out of school as a threat right now.

    If you don’t want to be harmed, you just have to stop being annoying in the eyes of me and Jeong-Gyu.

    ‘Well, was it still that bad!?’

    There was no violence… … That kid considered it taboo.

    What Joo Yena disliked the most was having her memories denied, so she rushed forward.

    My mind becomes more confused due to various things.

    At the exact moment when my junior kicked down the door and left, the cafe girl hurriedly brought a tray with cups from the kitchen.

    “Guest~! I brought you iced tea! hmm… customer? Hands, sir. Where are you going?”

    I shout urgently as I see Dahyun already walking out the door.

    I’ve already made everything, but where are I going?

    Yena returns to her original seat and stops her from leaving after the uninvited guest.

    “Mia, I’ll pay the money for you, so just stay still.”

    “Oh my. I heard there was a commotion outside, so did you fight? It won’t work! You should get along well with your friends-♪ Yena, there have been times when you went to extremes. Make up later.”

    Sister Mia.

    If I had opened a kindergarten instead of a cafe, I wouldn’t have had flies flying around. Be sarcastic.

    Instead of the steaming coffee, Joo Yena soothes her burning stomach with the leftover iced tea and makes an excuse.

    “We didn’t really fight. It’s the worst though. Sister, shall we continue what we were talking about earlier? If I go to the shopping center with a man-.”

    Miss Mia pretends to know, hitting her open palm with her fist.

    “Sunfield Mall, right? Is this your first time in Dayton? I’ve been there. I don’t know if what this girl says will help you… … .”

    Because I have something to say in as friendly an atmosphere as possible.

    Until Saturday, which is scheduled to be enjoyed at regular and shopping centers,

    You must plan the perfect ‘date’ by referring to as many experiences as possible… … .

    ***

    Yena’s house is a three-story mansion.

    There is also a rumor that it is the most expensive house in this shabby I city.

    It’s been a long time since I returned to the state of my soul from the second suicide, but as expected, my insides didn’t change, so I was shocked.

    In comparison, our house is a single-family home… It’s very old.

    If Yena’s father hadn’t supported her, the rain would have leaked 100% of the time.

    – While lying down and looking at the framed photo of my parents, a constellation secretly asks.

    [The constellation ‘The opposite of the one who lives is suicide’ asks who they are.]

    “It’s my parents. It’s none of your business.”

    [conflict! The constellation ‘the opposite of the living’ is said to be an issue that must be addressed because it receives double damage from the same ghost type.]

    Wow, wow. Isn’t this a pad lip that is being turned around?

    “… I quickly exorcise it.”

    The constellation, which didn’t react for a while, perhaps because it was upset at the mention of an exorcism, looked at the photo Jena and I had taken together and sent out a wave of text again.

    The unexpected scenery is interesting.

    This is a graduation photo from when I was 12 years old and in the 6th grade of elementary school.

    -I am smiling next to Yena, who has stiffened as she takes a picture.

    [The constellation ‘The opposite of the one who lives is suicide’ asks if the relationship seemed to be good at this time.]

    “That’s right. We had a falling out in middle school, but we were best friends until then. Since I’m in puberty, I’m too sensitive to hang out with men… I took a break from school for about half a year. Around that time, Jena started looking down on me.”

    [The opposite of the constellation ‘Salja’ is Hooksi. I ask if there is such an opportunity.]

    “None. There are a lot of pleasant stories. Let’s talk about something else. Like this shopping center case.”

    We decided to go to Sunfield Shopping Mall together on Saturday.

    In that place where all kinds of people gather… Yenna and I decided to meet. The pretext is that it’s clothes to wear on a school trip, but in reality, it seems like it has something to say along with the purpose of spying.

    It reminds me of the dark story of when Jena’s father took her to the department store and cried because every item had one more zero than expected.

    [The constellation ‘The opposite of the one who lives is suicide’ is disappointed that a man and a woman having fun together is not very pleasant for him.]

    “I don’t think you need to worry about that.”

    He announces the end of the day by wiping the dust off the horn. It doesn’t burn anymore, but I don’t neglect maintenance.

    Because it’s close to meditation that awakens me.

    -Anyway, I have very happy news for the Constellation.

    “… Today, I have a reason to give Yena a big scolding.”

    I muttered while looking at the phone screen.

    Ha, it shouldn’t be like this… really.

    -I’m just looking forward to Saturday.

    In particular, how Yena’s last words will change.

    ***

    The long-awaited Saturday has finally arrived. As instructed, I held back from committing suicide until the day before.

    *sniff* I wanted to commit suicide.

    At school, Yena became more and more familiar with me, and one of her seniors even bothered to catch up with me.

    The meeting place is in front of the bus stop.

    There is a flower shop called [Precia Flower Shop], but it has such a strange atmosphere that I never want to go in there.

    Yena’s driver, Driver Choi, has work today and has to go to the shopping center by bus.

    “Wait-? I’m sorry. It should have come out sooner.”

    “I didn’t wait. I showed up earlier than the scheduled time.”

    “Really? Ehehe – I’m glad. I ended up taking a nap yesterday.”

    Today, instead of my typical pigtails, I let down my blonde hair and braided the sides like rice.

    The black leather gloves and beige spring coat look expensive at first glance.

    I was a little dazed and gently called Yena, who was checking the estimated arrival time.

    “Yena.”

    “Huh? what’s the matter-? Let’s go right away when the bus comes.”

    “Yena.”

    When Yena called her name twice, she slowly turned her head as if she felt something was out of the ordinary.

    “-But why did you hit Dahyun on the cheek?”
