The bullying of Kim Young-hee by the delinquents in Park Yoo-jung’s class only got worse as the days went by.
“Hey, Young-hee! This time you really brought money, right? Huh?”
“Sorry… I forgot…”
“Ugh… What’s in that dumb head of yours?”
At first, the delinquents only bullied Kim Young-hee with words, but as she remained silent, they began to exploit her for money and hit her, resorting to more aggressive methods.
Initially, the classmates who stood by and watched began to stir, but…
“Isn’t that a bit too much…?”
“Well, Young-hee isn’t doing anything, so what can we do…?”
No one dared to step in. It was obvious that getting involved would only create more hassle.
And there was Park Yoo-jung, too.
Park Yoo-jung still wore her mask, merely watching Kim Young-hee suffer.
However…
“Is the girl an orphan, so she’s this dumb?”
“She didn’t learn anything from her parents when she was little.”
Among the insults hurled at Kim Young-hee were phrases that rubbed Park Yoo-jung the wrong way. The delinquents treated Kim’s lack of parents as if she were a sinner, and something rose up within Park Yoo-jung’s chest.
And what was most irritating was…
“Sorry… I did wrong.”
Hearing such baseless nonsense, Kim Young-hee nodded as if the delinquents were right.
‘If you think that way, it makes it seem like not having parents is a sin.’
Why isn’t she angry after being insulted like that? Why is she so quiet?
Park Yoo-jung found it incredibly frustrating and puzzling that Kim Young-hee stayed silent against the delinquents’ bullying and the insults about her parents.
Then she soon got a chance to clear that confusion.
“Alright, good job today! The on-duty person… is Young-hee and Yoo-jung, right? Please finish up well! The rest of you, don’t stray and go straight home! Good work!”
“Yes-!”
By chance, Kim Young-hee and Yoo-jung ended up having a chance to talk while cleaning the classroom.
“Hey Young-hee, I’ll wipe the blackboard. Could you move the desks back a bit?”
“…Okay.”
Kim Young-hee was so taciturn that she never opened her mouth first.
Park Yoo-jung quickly realized this trait and decided it was time to remove her mask and show her true feelings.
“Hey Young-hee.”
“…Huh?”
“Why do you stay quiet when the others bully you for not having parents?”
“……”
Kim Young-hee probably thought Park Yoo-jung was just a cheerful and funny girl.
But when Park Yoo-jung took off her mask and showed a cold expression, she looked shocked and dazed.
Park Yoo-jung poured out all her frustrations to her.
“I also don’t have parents. They passed away in a car accident, and I’m living with my aunt now.”
