In the Corridor

Ji Woo: "Where is you—" (She stops mid-sentence when she sees Taehyung holding Eunji's bag.) "Got it."

Soo Young: "Why do you have Eunji's bag?"

Taehyung: "From now on, I'm her official bag holder. Wherever she goes, I'll carry it for her."

Soo Young: "Okaaay... Just like a perfect boy—boy... Yeah, a perfect human, haha."

Taehyung: "I'll go now. Call me when you're leaving."

Eunji: "But—"

Taehyung: "No buts. Bye."

Eunji sighs as Taehyung walks away.

Ji Woo: "Let's go to class."

Eunji gets up and rushes to class.

Ji Woo (sighing): "Even after the accident, she's still the same..."

After Classes

Soo Young: "I need to run home before my mom kills me. Bye!"

Ji Woo: "Bye!"

Eunji: "I'm heading home too."

Ji Woo: "Wait, I'll drop yo—" (Her phone rings.)

Ji Woo: "Hello? ...Okay, I'm coming."

She looks at Eunji apologetically.

Ji Woo: "Sorry, I have to go to Hanbin's apartment. He's having some trouble—"

Eunji: "Go. Bye."

Ji Woo: "Bye!"

Eunji sighs, watching Ji Woo leave.

Eunji (muttering): "Well, I'm alone again."

Taehyung: "Give me your bag."

Eunji jumps in surprise.

Eunji: "Gosh! Why are you here?!"

Taehyung: "I told you—I'm your bag holder."

Eunji: "Stop it, Taehyung. jus—"

Before she can continue, Taehyung gently covers her mouth with his hand.

Taehyung: "Shhh. I'm just dropping you home, okay? Let's go."

Eunji protests, but somehow, he manages to get her into the car.

At the Park Residence

Eunji: "You can leave now."

Taehyung: "Not yet."

Eunji: "Taeh—"

Before she can finish, Mrs. Park appears at the door.

Mrs. Park: "Oh, you're here! I was waiting for you."

Mrs. Park's eyes shift to Taehyung.

Mrs. Park: "And you... Are you Eunji's friend? Wait—you're the one from the hospital!"

Taehyung: "Yeah, that was me. I was just dropping her."

Mrs. Park: "Oh, thank you, Taehyung, is it?"

Taehyung: "Yeah. Kim Taehyung."

Mrs. Park freezes for a moment, then her eyes widen.

Mrs. Park: "Wait! Kim Taehyung... Are you the son of Kim Dami and Kim Dong Hee?"

Taehyung: "Yes."

Mrs. Park: "Oh my god! It's been so long! You've grown so much!"

Eunji watches in confusion.

Eunji: "...?"

Mrs. Park turns to her.

Mrs. Park: "Eunji, do you remember when your father and I went on that business trip? His parents were part of it too. We've been friends for a long time! They told me about their sons."

Eunji (under her breath): "...Shit."

Taehyung: "Whoa, I didn't know that."

Mrs. Park: "We never got the chance to meet all together."

Taehyung: "Don't worry, Auntie. I'll talk to my parents—we should have dinner together tomorrow."

Mrs. Park: "Oh, that sounds wonderful!"

She grabs her bag from him and storms off to her room.

Taehyung watches her leave and smirks slightly.

Mrs. Park: "Bye, dear."
