Karina is with her friends while laughing because of a girl who was their new classmate who they found out was bisexual. She still doesn't know who it is but it looks like she will have fun because they have another classmate that is surely laughable. 

"I don’t know why there are people like her. Isn't it?" Her friend said while laughing. Her friends have their own money but they prefer to bully and take the students' money. 

"That's disgusting! Oh, hell. Speaking of." At the same time, they looked at the oncoming woman while the woman did not seem to care about the whispers she heard. 

That's her. She is that woman. The time she spent looking for her then suddenly  she's here when this is the situation. She just stared at it, she looked to see if it remembered her but it didn't glance even a single one.

"Karina, are you listening? She's that girl." Karina returned to her trance when she saw that all her friends were looking at her.

Karina was nervous because of what her friends might say to her or think. "She's not even beautiful." She blurted out. 

"I know, Karina. And she's one of those creeps! What if she likes me too? She likes girls, right?" The faces of her friends were even more shocked because of what one of their friends was saying. They're disgusted. 

In her mind. Why would Minjeong like people like them? That's more disgusting for her. Karina didn't notice that their professor was already in front of the class.

"I would be happy if the transferee would answer the problem." Their prof smiled and looked at one of her friends. For sure, that's their plan. Their professor and one of her friends have a relationship. 

Everyone stared at the standing woman as she headed to the front to answer the problem. It still doesn't bother those who look at her and the rumor that everyone is talking about. 

Karina just smiled when she saw everyone gaping at Minjeong's return. Maybe they were shocked because it was very difficult to answer the problem but winter answered it without any difficulty. She's smart of course. Karina knows that. 

Karina believes in the lord and Minjeong  is the opposite. It believes more in science because of her. Science is pure truth. 

"Ma'am! For me, the lord made us. We owe him everything." Karina answered their biology professor. 

Their professor would have spoken when they heard someone laugh. Everyone looked in the direction of the transferee. 

"Excuse me, miss? Are you in elementary or high school? You're totally unbelievable." Minjeong added while smirking.

"Of course. A bisexual like you wouldn't understand." Karina was irritated by what her classmate said. 

"You know. Science has proof. You're dean lister and yes, you're such an idiot." 

Karina couldn't speak yet and it seemed like all her blood had risen to her head. In her mind she wanted to kill it because she was so annoyed. 

"She's bisexual, karina. You know that you can do something about this." 

"I know" Karina smirked.

Karina followed Minjeong for a few months. She didn't miss any opportunity. She's dedicated, she wants her to suffer. And this is the right thing to do. 

"I brought our lunch, minjeong. Let's go?" Karina smiled at minjeong. 

"Are you crazy, karina? Who are you talking to, don't you remember what we did?" 

"We talked about making Minjeong fall in love with me. Obviously" She rolled her eyes. 

Karina received a strong and painful slap from her friend. "Don't you remember that she was run over by a truck when we tricked her that you were waiting for her? We were laughing that time because she was soaking wet in the rain while waiting for you. Don't you remember? It's good that our parents have found a way to keep us from going to jail. I can't afford that." 

Karina's friends couldn't speak anymore when Karina suddenly slapped her friend and ran away from them.

Karina kept running, she couldn't accept that she did all that. She can't accept that Minjeong's smile isn't real, that she's not really with the woman she loves. 

Karina just felt something big hit her hard. She saw how the truck rider got off as it continued to call for an ambulance. 

"It's good you're awake, karina. Are you hungry?" She saw Minjeong next to her while smiling. "Did you know? You're beautiful, even when you're confused. I don't even know why you like me. Why? I want you to be happy and don't think about me because I'm okay and I want you to. Move forward because I'll worry about you. Do you want that to happen? I love you, Karina." 

Karina felt the lights dazzling while the doctors didn't know what to do. 

"Minjeong." Karina spoke softly as her tears flowed. "I love you." 

Ten years ago but still neither karina can forget everything. Everyday she still blamed herself and what if she hadn’t just been selfish. 

"I'm sorry, minjeong. Please, let me be with you." When karina said that, she suddenly fell next to minjeong's grave while her hands were holding its tombstone.
