"Thank you for that wake-up call, Junghwan. I don't — you are right. I don't know what came over me. I'm sorry for everything I did."

It was a few days since the incident, and Park Eunbyul stayed cooped up in her dorm room, barely doing anything. She was practically a walking corpse, and no one knew what to do.

Since Class 4's homeroom teacher wasn't present, Eunbyul's absence in the class wasn't noticeable — plus her classmates did their best to change the topic whenever the teachers inquired about her. To make things worse, males weren't allowed in the female dormitories, so it was even more difficult for the others to check on her, especially since the new security guards were stricter.

"What about home-schooling? Could I do that?" She mumbled to herself, typing away on her laptop as she researched about it. "I won't have any schools nearby if I leave Treasure High, so maybe home-schooling is an option."

As she kept researching, Eunbyul saw her phone vibrate, receiving many calls and messages simultaneously from all her classmates that had her number. She continued looking at her laptop, biting her lip in concentration as she scanned the words on the website.

Her brows furrowed in confusion as she got a notification on the side of her laptop, signalling she was getting a videocall. Park Sunghoon; incoming videocall. Eunbyul blinked a few times, checking if she was reading correctly before realising it was really her twin brother calling her.

She answered the call after a bit of contemplation, not wanting her grandparents to worry in case her brother reported back to them. Sunghoon looked as good-looking as ever, his hair parted in his signature 7:3 ratio. An involuntary chuckle left his lips, leaning forward to get a good look at his sister.

"You look horrible, Byul-ah." He laughed, trying to joke around in an attempt to lighten the mood. "When Jihoon said you were not doing well, he wasn't kidding."

"Thanks for pointing it out, Blue's Clues. Not all of us can look photoshoot ready." Eunbyul droned, rolling her eyes in response. "If you are done giving me your monthly insult, I'll hang up now." Her finger hovered over the decline button, not knowing why she was hesitating to end the call.

"He told me about everything that happened."

"Of course, he did." Sunghoon watched his sister as she avoided his eye-contact. "Traitor," she grumbled, feeling awkward now that she knew her brother knew about everything that went down.
