Walking in the middle of the forest, holding my sister's hand, afraid of letting go I hold her tightly. Afraid of separation I hold her hand tighter but gently, Somehow we can be here so strangely.

Coward. That's the truth. I'm really stupid. I shouldn't sit still. But that voice, I was disturbed. The melodious tune seemed to compel me not to move.

"mark lee" beautiful melody but the pain called my name "mark lee" the beautiful melody called me again "MARK LEE" suddenly the beautiful melody turned into an ear-splitting melody

I woke up from my dream, at 3:28 am. The sky is still dark, the sun has not set yet. My eyes are still fresh. Really can't sleep like my eyes are forced to open. I got off the bed and grabbed a box of cigarettes and matches. My hands rummaged through the books in the closet. I finally found the book I was looking for. I opened the balcony door and sat on a wooden chair with a cushion there while lighting my cigarette with a match. I opened my book and continued reading the unread chapter. That's my routine when I wake up in the middle of the morning. You can say my daily routine.

"My two younger brothers must be sleeping peacefully, right? Including Rina? If only I was mature and good at fighting. If only I practiced regularly, Jeno wouldn't lose his twin, right? Sungchan wanted a sister to be with her every time right? Jeno and sungchan won't be lonely and Rina can spend her childhood with them, right? I'm a bad brother. I leave all my siblings and drift in my world."

"I hate myself."

time has moved on and now it's time to study at school. Students study diligently, I just sit in the library listening to music on my earbuds while reading a history book, and making notes due for the exam next month. After finishing my review, I walked to the office of the student president of this school. I just showed my poker face without wanting to treat the girls who were engrossed in looking at me.

Pathetic. I like men not women.

I opened the door knob of my room by taking out the key from my pocket. Looking at the table and chairs it seems that no one entered. The student president's room needs to be locked and is not a place for good students and there are no cases. Only serious student cases such as bullying, misbehavior, and many more. If the case is really bad, the president will report it to the principal. And the principal will discuss with the teachers involved and the school supervisors' association, including whether they want to be given severe punishment or expelled from school. I need to talk about prom night which is in 2 weeks. The headmaster entrusted us to organize this ceremony.

"Seol ri, announce to the other committee members that the meeting for the prom will begin after the break bell rings," I told my assistant Seol Ri, who is the training supervisor who is my assistant. "I will president"

right after Seol Ri came out, I remembered the file I found in Sungchan's room. I decided to look up the girl's name in the student system. I typed the girl's name. "Karina Lee"

is it just a coincidence that the girl has the same name as my sister?

Bingo!
