Irene opened the door of their practice room, and the vocal teacher welcome her with a slap. She was stiffened. But no shock was written in her beautiful visage.
"Eonnie!" the maknae runs over her and embraced her. "Teacher, don't hurt her.." Yeri beseeched with tears.
Their teacher rolled her eyes in disgustment. "Don't hurt her? She escaped from my lessons without any reasons! And are you asking me not to hurt her!?"
"Teacher, can you please listen to eonnie first? You didn't give her a chance to say her reason." Wendy said, her voice was calm.
"What nonsense reasons will you give, huh!?"
Irene look at her eyes. It seems that she had nothing to fear. "I went to my hometown. That's all."
"What did you say!? Huh! An early vacation...without having permission." their teacher closed its eyes due to frustration. "I'm gonna tell this absurdity to the CEO!"
"Seongsaengnim!" Yeri kneel down in front of their teacher. "Don't do that!"
"Yeri-yah.." Irene stood her up, she removed the dust in maknae's knee. "Please, you don't have to be involve with this.."
Then, she turned her head to their teacher. "Tell that to the CEO so I'll be punish, then I will be kick out. Or much worse, I will depart like the other artists did. So, that you are one who will be blame at the end." she stated with her anger eyes.
Their teacher was taken aback. "Your rudeness went through the roof! How can you say such as things like that!?"
"I admit it, I did wrong. I just couldn't accept that someone slaps me. And that someone is no other than but the one that I trusted the most.." then she left the room with teary eyes.
Wendy and Yeri look so down after hearing her words. It is unusual. Maybe, their teacher's action hurts her too much.
Irene runs over the comfort room, the tears that she held back earlier burst out. She turned on the faucet and started to sob.
"Joohyun-ah..."
She turned her back to see the person who called her, without wiping her tears.
"Why are you crying?" Seohyun hugs her little sister (eventhough Irene is older than her). "You look so ugly when you're crying..."
Seohyun handed her a handkerchief. As soon as she wiped her tears, Seohyun hold her wrist and they went to the caféteria.
"What happened?" Seohyun asked, comfortably sitting and facing her.
"Uhm.." she looked down.
"Did your boyfriend broke up with you?"
"No! Mark will never do that.."
Seohyun widen her eyes. "M-Mark?"
Irene closed her eyes when she realized her dumbness.
"Are you dating someone? Oh my god." Seohyun laughed in excitement. "I'm happy for you."
Irene smiled. "Our vocal teacher scolded me because I skipped her vocal lesson in order to go in Daegu with him.."
"Really? That's why you cried?"
She nodded. "She slapped me and I saw Yeri kneeling down. I feel so guilty.."
"What!? How dare her to touch your face?"
"I deserve it."
Seohyun sighed. "Are you okay now?"
Irene nodded.
