He felt bad cause he knew she was bullied but he didn't know why either way how you could say to your daughter?

Si-ah shed a tear as she pick up the plate of dumplings, her mother went back to her room as soon as they reach the floor.

She goes back up. San was trying to peek out to see if they were still conversing but it was just Si-ah going up.

He sees her looking down as she walked in. Since San was on the floor, still on his side of the table, he could see that Si-ah cried a little.

"Here, eat as many as you like," She said, voice cracking. Placed it on the table, nearer to him

She sits at the other side of the table

"Si-ah... are you okay?" He asked, reaching out to move a strand of hair off her face

But was quickly pushed away "Yeah totally, totally fine," She said

"Let's end it off here, once you're done eating you can go, you've done well today," She said, looking at him trying to smile 

"Si-ah..." He called

"Hmm?" She sniffed, clearing her stuff on the table 

"You are not okay and that's okay," He said

He takes her hand "You can talk about it, I'm all ears."

"You won't make fun of me?" She finally looks up

San smiles "Not unless you want me to," He moves the strand of hair

"Well... I was bullied for a reason that I do not know of, constantly the bullies called me a dumpling, Deokmi, the main girl asked me to buy her dumplings and told to me to buy more for her henchwomen using my own money, they will also push me to a wall if I don't buy or give her the things she wants," She cries

"I was so happy when my dad accidentally sold the house, I was finally away from the bullying...that is until they saw me at the mall, they brought me down to the mall's basement to kick, push and punch me." She said

"I am so ugly, so that's probably why Deokmi hates me," Si-ah sighs

"Yeah," San chuckles learning a slap from her

"Yah!"

"Why? You said it yourself," He said

Si-ah sighs "You're right."

"But honestly you need to look at others' perspectives on how they view you."

"What do you mean?" Si-ah asked

"Well, let's take Hajin for example, the prettiest girl in school, you say she's pretty, other people say she's pretty," He explains

"But how she views herself is ugly, she calls herself ugly, no one will like me she said," San said

"But she's literally so pretty, how can she not see that," She questioned 

"There you go, you see her as beautiful but when she sees herself, she thinks she's ugly," San said

"Wow, people view her as pretty but for me, I'm sure they'll view me as ugly," She said

"In my view, you're beautiful, Si-ah," San said

She looks at him, she thought he was the boy who would ignore her, use her but looking at it now, he is a really nice guy.

She smiles "Whoever your soulmate is, she'll be the luckiest girl in the world to have you," She said

"Thank you." 

"Do you know who's your soulmate? She asked

"I do but she doesn't know who I am," San said 

"Dang, that sucks," She laughs 👀

He sticks a dumpling in her mouth. He laughs at her shocked face "Yes, it does," He said

"I have to go, meet you in the library on Wednesday?" He asked, packing up

She nodded "Umm, do you need me to give directions?"

"Nah, after seeing you struggle here and there, I sort of found my way to the gates," He said

She throws him a pillow "I'm still new to the block," She said

"And I'm not from the block yet I found my way," He sticks out a tongue 

They both walked out of the room

"See you on Monday then," She said

"Yup, bye," He said waving to her as he walks out

-

Monday

"I want to go to the convenience store, anyone wants to follow?" Chaewon asked

"I'll go, I want some onigiri," Si-ah said

"Me too, Hajin do you want to follow?" Arin asked

"Meh, I'll just stay in class I'm having pretty bad cramps," She said

"Do you want us to bring you to the nurse?" Arin asked, concern

"It's okay, I'll go there if it gets worse," Hajin said

"Alright, don't force yourself so much okay?" Si-ah said

"I won't," She said, putting her bag out on the table as a pillow

The three walked out of the classroom

Hajin groans "This hurts."

As Hajin tries to stand up

"Oh Hajin, hi," San comes into the classroom

He walks towards her "Hajin?" She turns around 

Her vision was a blur. She loses consciousness and falls onto San.

"San!" Wooyoung calls

"Hajin fell, I'm going to the nurses' office," San carries her in bridal style

Wooyoung and Yeonjun move to the side as their friend ran past them.

"When is he going to confess," Yeonjun said

"To who?" Wooyoung questioned

"Hajin, you dummy," Yeonjun hits his head

"San likes Hajin?" Wooyoung eyes widen 

"You just found out?" Yeonjun questioned

Wooyoung slowly nods. Yeonjun shakes his head "It was pretty obvious."
