Hyosan high-school
Gym Hall, storage room

It's been an hour or so and no one had spoken up so far. Cheong-San and On-Jo were at the far end, On-Jo holding Cheong-San as the boy crumbled in her arms. Gyeong-Su sat near his best friend as well, giving him support even though he didnt know how he could help. Dae-Su had apologised to Cheong-San few minutes after the doors closed and now he was sitting next to Joon-Yeong and Hyo-Ryung, Wu-Jin was sitting next to Ha-Ri while Mi-Jin sat on the other side of Ha-Ri. Mi-Ra was hugging Nam-Ra, hoping to soothe her sister while Suhyeok sat next to her, Mi-Ra being sandwiched between the two.

"Are you feeling better?" Mi-Ra asked, tucking Nam-Ra's hair behind her ear.

The redness of her eye stayed which was strange but Mi-Ra caught herself in a broken glass only to see that her own redness stayed as well.

"I think so," Nam-ra replied. "But I'm really weak..."

"Me too," mumbled Mi-Ra, sighing and pulling Nam-Ra closer.

"I'm sorry... I'm supposed to be stronger-"

"No," Mi-Ra cut her off. "We won't be having that conversation. You are allowed to feel weak Nam-Ra, we both are. Let's stop using our parents' words, yeah?"

Nam-Ra blinked at her before slowly nodding. "Okay," she softly replied.

Mi-Ra smiled.

"You should sleep, come on," Mi-Ra said, pulling Nam-Ra towards the pile of gym mattresses, glad that her sister didn't protest.

Mi-Ra slowly pulled Nam-Ra to the ground, placing the softer mattresses under her head and then pulling Hyo-Ryung as well, telling her to sleep as well. She helped the two lie down comfortably before glancing towards Dae-Su and Joon-Yeong only to find the two asleep. Dae-Su's hands over Joon-Yeong's chest, hugging him as they slept. On-Jo and Cheong-San were somewhat asleep as well, their eyes were barely holding up and Mi-Ra knew they were going to fall asleep soon. Gyeong-Su, Wu-Jin and Ha-Ri were asleep long ago, the three seemingly too tired to stay awake a little longer.
