Eunbyul POV:

I was in intense pain; my stomach hurt, and I hadn't had anything good to eat for the past three days. The bullying continued...

Minjin POV:

I've noticed a change in Roshi's character; she's now actually like a bully, taunting that innocent girl. As soon as we reached her house, I asked her why she was behaving that way, and she just started shouting at me. We started arguing, which later led to us breaking up. I didn't want to break up with her, but she kept pushing me, which eventually made me tired. I entered my car and left her house.

The next day

Eunbyul POV:

The past few days were still hell for me. I lay on my bed, dying from frustration and anger. So-hee came to my room, asking me to help her with her assignment, but I told her I couldn't help because I was busy and had a lot to do. However, she just left with anger. Later, her mom came up to my room and slapped me, saying I bullied So-hee. I looked at So-hee, and she said yes. Her mom told her to slap me five times, and she did. Tae-hee also did the same thing. Her mom punished me that night and told me never to go near her children again.

At school, they continued with their taunts. I became fed up with everything and went upstairs. I didn't know what I was about to do; I just stood there and started crying. I wanted to jump and end everything, but I was too afraid to do so. I came down from where I was; it was soon lunchtime. I went to the toilet, where I usually had my lunch. I heard some girls talking about Minjin's breakup. Wow, surprising! I wondered what was the reason for their breakup because they looked inseparable.

Min Jin POV:

After training, I went home, had dinner with my parents, and went up to my room. Laying on my bed, I saw my laptop, so I stood up and opened it. Well, I guess no one knows that I joined the art program with the username V142. I came across that same girl's post. Wow, she's really brilliant, and I loved her idea. I wonder who she is. I decided to chat her up, hoping she'd reply. To my surprise, she did.

Cinderella: "Hello, how may I help you?"

V142: "Well, I was wondering if you could help me with something. I've seen your work and idea, and I find it brilliant. Do you mind if we pair up for the project, cause I'm also interested in writing and singing too?"

Eunbyul POV:

I opened my laptop and received a message from V142. I decided to chat him back. He asked if we could be a pair for the project. Well, I really don't mind, so long as he could share his idea. I replied him:

Cinderella: "I don't mind."

V142: "Thanks, so you attend our school, right? Why don't we meet up for the project?"

My heart skipped a beat when he asked me this. I immediately changed the topic.

Cinderella: "So, what idea do you have for the project?"

V142: "Okay, I was thinking maybe we should come up with a theme about the school. I mean, if we write a good article about the school and the stories of the students, it would get many reviews. I hope you understand what I'm saying?"

Cinderella: "Yes, sure."

V142: "So, should we gather as much information as possible about at least 30 students in the school? What do you think?"

I don't think I can do it, but I replied him anyway.

Cinderella: "Okay!!"

V142: "Don't mind me, but do you mind if I know you more?!!!"

My heart skipped a beat. I've never had anyone ask me this question. I wonder who he is. I also wanted some information about him, so I just replied.

Cinderella: "I don't mind. What do you want to know about me?"

V142: "Well, I want to know if you're in a relationship, your name, your class, just everything."

Oh gosh, I don't know who he is, but all I know is that he talks too much. I told him everything he needed to know about me, but not in detail, though. If he knew my real name, then he would not talk to me again.

Like that, I made a new online friend, V142. Few days passed, and V142 and I had already started talking. We found comfort in each other, and each time he said he wanted to meet me in person, I ignored him because I knew that if he discovered my identity, he would definitely reject me. I spent most of my time talking to him, especially when school became overwhelming.

I decided to write my first published article, which sparked conversation. It was a brilliant idea and received many reviews. Although it wasn't our main project, it was just an ordinary school article. The article was from an anonymous source, and people didn't know who the author was. It was me, Cinderella, they guessed. They wondered who Cinderella was. V142 also left a good review.
