Episode 67: For whom does the bell ring (2)

“Sister Arin. Who is the best sister?”

Someone called Erin.

I looked back.

Several of the girls sitting in her row were looking at her.

Wearing colorful sweatshirts and looking at Lee Ah-rin, they looked like the main characters of an old cartoon movie.

"Huh? What are you talking about?”

When Ia Lin asked with her puzzled expression, the girls covered their mouths and laughed.

“Who does your sister look the best in this classroom?”

It was a nonsensical story.

However, Arin Lee, who has been in the Noryangjin Gosi Restaurant for 3 years, knew what they wanted to say at once.

‘It’s probably about who is the most handsome.’

Then Arin's expression softened slightly.

She looked at the girls who were concentrating on her.

Come to think of it, now was the time for such a story to come and go.

1st year of retraining.

And it's just the beginning of July.

It was a time when I was getting used to the fateful life that I was only afraid of, and the days were getting hotter than they were warm.

So it was obvious that the story came from young men and women in their prime.

"Well? Well, I don't know?"

she said with a smile.

Then, the female students who were waiting for her answer shook their heads with a sullen expression.

“Ah, unni everyone said it, so shamefully! Are you already dating someone? Come to think of it, the tall older brother who was sitting in the back of her always looked at her older sister, right?”

Then she suddenly began to look at her with her suspicious eyes.

It was as if he was looking at her traitor.

Erin Lee was absurd at heart, but the way they looked like that was also cute. It was because she could see in them her lost youthfulness while playing her 4th number.

However, it was obvious what kind of rumors would spread within the academy if left alone.

So I had to say no now.

The moment she was just about to talk to her schoolgirls.

“Hey, how old are you, I would do something like that. Does it make sense for her to date a 23-year-old and a 20-year-old?”

Someone's voice was heard.

At that place.

There was a girl with a relaxed expression while drinking 1,500 won takeaway coffee.

“Did you buy all of them? how much? The color is pretty.”

The girls' attention was drawn to her appearance. As if some kind of honey had been applied to the bright red sweatshirt, the girls croaked and surrounded the students in the nudes.

“Not long. About 99,900 won?”

she said with a small smile.

And then her form of looking at this Arin of her didn't seem to like her.

“Hey, who do you like best? Among the people in the classroom?”

One of the female students asked Nuddy.

She was the student who posed the question to Arin.

Then the girls, who were preoccupied with her clothes, looked at her with a tense expression on her face.

"who? among men? Is there only one person?”

She said as if she didn't care about you.

“So who?”

The girl who asked the question was hired again.

You shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth.

“There is Kim Jun-young. You think he's the best? no?"

The girls then nodded their heads at the same time.

“Yes. Was Junyoung there?”

The girl who asked the question nodded her head.

But then one of the students next to her sneaked in.

“Hey, isn’t this a foul? It's so unplayable Was that person a teacher in the first place?”

Then, you opened her mouth with a sullen expression.“You are among the people in the classroom. Because you are a teacher, you are in the classroom.”

“Yes.”

“Anyway, I like him the best. It's okay if you're tall and have a nice face, and your shoulders aren't too bad... If you ask me to meet you, I am willing to meet you.”

As D-nyeo said with a smile, the girls around her responded with awkward smiles.

But then, all of a sudden, your daughter-in-law looked at her Lee Arin.

Her cold smile was like a child tearing apart her dragonfly wings.

“By the way, sister. Did you do well on this mock exam?”

It was a nonsensical story.

Because she wasn't usually in a direct relationship with Arin.

But she wasn't hiding anything.

“Yeah, I think I did pretty well. You?"

Erin said with a slight smile.

Then she nodded her head and opened her mouth.

"That's fortunate. I'm fine too. By the way, can I ask what grade she is?”

This time, Erin was also a little embarrassed.

It was rare for her to ask for a score like this in detail.

"ranking? 1 2 2 1?”

Erin said with a trembling expression.

Then she looks at you and smiles brightly.

“Oh, your score is higher than I thought? But why did you do 4th?”

She put a piece of glass into this Arrin's chest.

In an instant, Arin's expression hardened.

Except for Null, the girls around her also looked back at them with bewildered expressions.

‘4 number’

The writing is deeply engraved on Lee Arin's chest.

It wasn't scarlet, but it was the name of pain.

Irene thought.

why am i here

Why should I be treated like this?

OK.

A voice shook her head.

‘You are the mistake of my life.’

heavy voice.

always been afraid

‘If you raise cattle for 20 years, you will find the path that the owner likes, but you have never been ahead of me until this day. So, was it that hard to go to Seoyul University?’

It was her father's voice.

‘The child of a member of the National Assembly goes to Jijapdae. 'Cause I'll never admit it If you can't go to Seoyul University, go to study abroad or get married to the person your father chose.'

That's what her father said when she dropped out of college for her first time. Since then, whenever she sees her father, her limbs tremble.

She wondered if she would get better if she went to Seoyul University, so she continued to challenge herself after that, but it was not an easy task for her.

When she studied, she got good grades, but when she took the exams, her grades fell.

“...to go to Seoyul University. But it’s a little difficult there.”

she said with a hard smile.

OK.

"Oh right. It was. I'm sorry, sister. I asked something. You're sure to stick with it this time."

She said with an apologetic expression on her face.

However, the atmosphere she had already hardened was not easily resolved.

Because anyone could see that the apology was not sincere.

But then.

“Oh my, you ate your makeup really well.”

A girl suddenly began to praise Arin's face, as if trying to change her mood.

Then the female students who wanted to do this at this time also spoke out.

“Where do you use the foundation? Ugh, I want to be good at makeup too.”

“Bitch, you have a problem with the original version. My sister is supported by her face.”

“Hey, aren’t you too strong?”

Thanks to the comical talk about the female students shaving their flesh, a bright smile formed on Lee Arin's face.

Then, a student who was watching the scene from the side stabbed her in the side.

Then she spit her words out with a look on her face that she didn't like you.

“By the way, do you have time to put on makeup in the morning?”

In an instant, the faces of the girls who spit out comics were wrinkled.

* * *

‘Hey, why are you doing this to your sister?’

‘What am I?’

'No, you're too aggressive. Do you know how embarrassing it is? Why the hell is that?’

'It's no luck. Others wear sweatpants while reaching out to their parents, but does it make sense to wear a full-length one-piece every day on the theme of the 4th student?’

The voices of female students were heard outside the classroom.

It was after the female students who could not stand the atmosphere after the previous work had left their seats with the excuse that they were going to drink coffee.

Alone in the empty classroom, Arin smiled and ruffled her hair.

That was then.

Her black tears fell on her desk.

It was tears mixed with cosmetics.

'Makeup'

Originally this Arin, she had no makeup.

Because her father didn't tolerate her makeup, she didn't know how to properly apply a tint even when her friends went full makeup.

So when she was in school, her face was always bare. And that didn't change after she became a retaker.

But last year.

By the time she started studying again after ruining her 2nd SAT.

She saw a stranger in the window of a shopping mall she happened to see.

A woman wearing a shabby sweatshirt dipped in kimchi broth, holding a textbook thicker than her own body.

She is a person who is looking at herself with a white expression on her face.

That person was herself.

Then she was shocked.

Because the look of her was so shabby.

Because she looked so pitiful.

From then on, she got up at dawn, put on makeup, wore her prettiest clothes, and listened to lectures.

But she never dreamed that it would have been something she didn't like to anyone.

slurp-

Tears flowed nonstop from her eyes.

Stepping on the fallen tears, she ran to the bathroom.

She told someone that she was crying.

She didn't want to look ugly.

like that.

She washed away all the makeup that had been hiding her.

She then looked in the mirror as she was in the bathroom.

Then there stood the shabby woman I had seen two years ago, with the same face as then.

It was as if she was naked on her feet.

Her hands and feet trembled as she stood before her father.

Her face went pale, as if she had become addicted to hiding.

Unable to bear it, she ran out of the bathroom.

She then ran towards the classroom.

But then.

“Fuck.”

She bumped into someone.

She was running frantically, and she lost her balance for an instant and stumbled.

The moment she closed her eyes, thinking that she would soon fall on her hard marble.

Someone's arm was tightly wrapped around her shoulder.

“Are you okay over there?”

Someone's voice echoed in her ear.

* * *

"Concentration! There's really not much left until the entrance exam, okay?""Yep! Ready!”

"great. Go with that attitude!”

The lecture was in progress.

But she couldn't concentrate on the lecture and just stared at her desk.

It was because she could not possibly have the courage to look at Kim Jun-young as she was giving a lecture.

that day.

The day she and Kim Jun-young bumped into each other.

‘…you look like a student at our academy, but the marble floor of the academy is slippery, so I’ll go slowly from now on.’

The words that Kim Jun-young threw were the problem.

Because he was then.

Because he didn't recognize her at all.

She usually thought that before and after makeup was very different, but she didn't know that Kim Jun-young would not recognize her.

She wasn't seated at the back of her, but in the middle, she was listening to her lectures in front of her too,

At first she was worried that she might not recognize him.

However.

Joon-young couldn't recognize who she was even right in front of her.

‘Are you just dull?’

Then she flashed her memory of the mock exam in her mind.

The day she took the mock exam.

It was the day she was cheating as usual for a mock test report to show her father.

Come to think of it, even that day, Joon-young didn't notice anything.

that is.

'...just because she hasn't bloomed yet, don't get me wrong that she's not a flower...'

It was when Junyoung couldn't focus on her cheating because of what she had said the day before.

In fact, she had heard a lot of things similar to what Junyoung said.

Among the instructors at her academy she had met during that time, there were people who slightly touched the emotions of her re-students and maintained her own lifespan.

But they and Junyoung were different.

In the case of other instructors, they touch the emotions of returning students to cover up their lack of ability.

It was because she said that for the students, even though she didn't have to.

Is that so?

Junyoung's words left a deep mark on her dried up heart.

Because of that, she struggled until the end to become a 'flower', but on the day Jun-yeong joined as the director, she had no choice but to cheat, unlike usual.

It also wouldn't have been her if it wasn't for her father's pressure, but she didn't know that she had her conflicts with her whether she cheated or not, unlike any other time, and it was a major step forward for her.

So while she was cheating, she thought she might be caught by Joon-young, who is her director. Even if she thought about it, cheating that day was incredibly clumsy.

However.

Jun-young couldn't catch her own clumsy cheating.

"ha."

Erin sighed.

When you think about it, it was funny that she was doing this alone.

Her Jun-young, who made her worry about her, was now giving her lectures to her without paying any attention to her.

'It's stupid...'

But she didn't even have the confidence to listen to her lecture when she came now and she looked at Joon-young's face.

She was ashamed of herself for cheating in front of the person she was impressed with, and it was also funny that she felt sad that he did not recognize her.

So she.

Just after the lecture, she thought of holding on, staring at her desk until Joon-young left.

However.

Her plans were shattered in an instant due to unexpected variables.

after the lecture.

She was in her ear waiting for Joon-young to leave.

“Irene?”

Because someone's voice permeated.

Startled, she raises her head.

At that place.

“Can you give me a moment?”

There was Junyoung who was smiling brightly.
