Childhood Friend of the Youngest Daughter of a Conglomerate Family

chapter 18



18 – I lied

It’s a disgusting morning.

I think I had a bad dream.

But even though it’s a bad memory, I still feel like I’m missing something… Oh, I don’t know.

Anyway, dreams are vivid when you have them, but why do you not remember any of them when you wake up…

“… But why are you like that?”

“… What?”

“No, he kept staring at me… And today, another seat… “

“I just happened to see it? And do I always have to sit next to Sol? I will sit next to my father today.”

“… Yes, it is not your heart.”

From the time you wake up in the morning and wash your face to breakfast, Ara is always like that.

What is it? I was a bit scolded for fighting yesterday, but I didn’t react like this yesterday…

Oh, look again.

“Hmm… “

“Why does the boss look like that?”

“I don’t know what you mean. I just happened to see it.”

“… Really?”

Yoo Jae-joon also glances at me.

Contrary to Ara’s disapproving face, with a proud face.

My beloved daughter, who usually sits next to me, must be in a good mood to sit next to her.

… But something pissed me off with that expression.

“So, look for it. Understand?”

“Eh. I didn’t see him like that yesterday… I’ll look for it!”

“Hey… Are you talking to each other?”

Ara’s strange attitude continued until she got on the school bus.

Normally, all three of us sat in the back seat of the bus so that Mina would not be left behind, but today, the two of us sat in a two-person seat.

Obvious bullying… Rather, Ara alone keeps away from me.

“Sol, talk to me later. I’ll tell you after school today.”

“What the hell. I’m sorry for the fight yesterday. But really I couldn’t help it… “

“… Not because of that Anyway, tell me after school.”

After she said that one-sidedly, Ara didn’t talk to me until I got to school.

Mina and I exchanged whispers together.

I think the tone of voice is a little different from being angry at me… It’s so embarrassing to have such an attitude all of a sudden.

Even after arriving at school, Ara and Mina left me alone and disappeared somewhere.

I entered the classroom alone like that.

“Ha, hello Hansol!”

“Huh?”

As soon as I entered the classroom, a timid voice came flying.

Looking back, the guys I hit yesterday were waving with awkward smiles.

“Hello Hansol!”

“Nice to meet you, friend!”

“Oh, wasn’t it difficult to come here?”

“Is your bag heavy? Give it to me!”

“… What are you guys?”

Strange faces that don’t know if they’re frowning or smiling.

What are these gore up to?

Standing blankly, the tallest guy I had hit the most yesterday stood in front of me and held out his hand.

“Oh, we were sorry about yesterday! We just want Hansol to get to know you… “

“… Do you hit her head like that for wanting to get close?”

“Mi-sorry… “

“Haa… it’s okay. I was a bit harsh with you yesterday too… Just end it like this Let’s do things that didn’t exist.”

“Uh, huh? Now wait… ”

Uh wait a minute.

Apparently, these guys want to get along with me now, but I don’t really want to get involved.

If you become friends with 8-year-olds, will you be more than babysitting again?

I was already taking care of the kids in kindergarten until I got tired of them.

The only thing I can get along with in this class is Minah Park.

“Listen to me for a second, Hansol.”

“Why do you keep going?”

The guy who persistently followed me to my seat, he says his name is Gu Min-seop.

Gu Min-seop cheekily wears bridge hair with only one part of his hair dyed yellow.

Come to think of it, back in the day, hair like this was popular among kids.

It’s not that different from being a rich school.

“Ha, Hansol, your hair is cool. I also dyed this right after graduating from kindergarten.”

“… I’m not dyed?”

“That, is it? Uh, then your clothes… “

“Haa… Hey, Minseob. Just say what you have to say Just something to say.”

“Ugh, ugh… “

Why is the guy talking in circles like this?

If I had said this in front of Mr. Lee, I would have hit him on the head with that big fist.

Gu Min-seop put his face close to my ear as if he was trying to tell me something secret.

“Hey… Yesterday, Hansol, you became the best in our class, right? Then the 2nd best will be me… ?”

“… What?”

“Oh no? That, but because I fought with you the longest… “

“No, not that…” What? Awesome?”

What did I just hear?

That’s awesome. Damn, that’s so f*cking stupid. Shriveled up

Now is not 20 years ago… Oh, that’s right, 20 years ago.

Anyway, that’s not the point.

No, but Min-seop Gu is an 8-year-old 1st grader, what the heck is he talking about?

Then, did they say hello to me since morning, not because they wanted to be close?

Things that are only 8 years old?

“Hey, where did you learn that word?”

“To my older brother… “

… I heard that Gu Min-seop’s older brother is the best in class 2 of the 5th grade of the 5th grade of Dhamdeum Elementary School.

I don’t know if that older brother was really the best or if he was bluffing with younger brother Ji, but the problem is that he gave false information to younger brother Ji.

This guy is Ji-hyung Therefore, he wanted to be the best of class 3 in 1st grade, but since he lost to me, he is determined to become the 2nd best.

Min-seop Goo proudly said that it was his idea to gather his friends in the morning and greet me together.

Ugh, I decided to rescue this unanswered bastard.

“Leave the cool word.”

“Huh?”

“Don’t use the word ‘chan’. All the classmates are just friends. There’s no such thing as cool Understand?”

“Huh? That, though… “

“… If you want to be friends with me, don’t call me the best. There is no such thing as a second best.”

“Tea, if you don’t like Jjang, the captain, the sub-commander… “

“…… “

“Okay… “

When I opened my eyes to Min-seop Gu, who was talking nonsense, he went back to his seat with his shoulders stretched out.

Gu Min-seop is still tilting his head to himself as if he is not convinced.

Yeah, I don’t know right now, but you’ll thank me later.

Because it reduced one of your dark history.

After sitting down and waiting, it was time for assembly, and teacher Oh Bong-han, the homeroom teacher, came in.

“Today, we are going to elect a temporary class president for a week. Everyone will take turns doing it anyway for a year, so don’t feel pressured and if you want to do it, raise your hand and say it.”

“Teacher! What is the class president?”

“I am the representative of the class. He is the one who helps the teacher and does what our class needs.”

“You are the captain!”

“Teacher! What is your representative?”

“Ah, being a representative…… “

A parade of questions from curious children began.

After all, these are children who have just graduated from kindergarten, so they have a lot of questions.

By the way, everyone takes turns as class president.

Perhaps it is to give the first graders a chance to experience what it is like to be a class president.

I don’t think there’s much to do if a freshman becomes the class president.

Mmm, good. Still, there can be a lot of things to do in the first two weeks, so let’s just avoid being the class president then.

Just then, a spirited child suddenly raised his hand.

It was Ku Min-seop.

He said that he was the best, so he must have wanted to play the role of captain.

“Teacher! I think Han Sol should be the captain!”

‘… What the f*ck?’

“Hmm, I like Hansol. But it’s not the captain, it’s the class president, Minseop-ah…. Do you have any friends who would like to be class president?”

Nobody raised a hand.

It was decided that I would be the class president for the first week.

Along with the thunderous applause of the children, I saw Min-seob Gu raising his thumb in my direction.

… It was the first time in my life that I felt the urge to hit a child.

Actually, it’s not the first time.

———-

“How was it, Minah?”

“Yeah, that’s… There was no kid named So Kim in our class.”

“… Okay?”

As soon as it was dismissal time, Ara and Mina gathered in the women’s bathroom and started a strategy meeting.

The topic is Who is Kim So-ran?

On the bus, Ara told Mina the story of last night.

After hearing the story, Minah didn’t like it either.

I don’t know if it’s a child, but I didn’t want to see Hansol who was close to another girl.

Mina herself doesn’t know why… She wasn’t feeling very well.

So, she readily accepted Ara’s request to find her little girl named Kim So.

However, there was no girl named Kim So in the class, let alone a boy.

“There was a girl named Park So-hee… “

“So-hee, not So-hee? Is he close with Sol?”

“No, I didn’t even see Hansol talking to him. Seeing Hansol fight yesterday, all the girls are afraid of Hansol.”

“There wasn’t a kid named Kim So in my class… “

The only time Hansol went to Ara’s class was when she went home from school to pick up Ara, but Ara checked her self, her class, and even her girls.

But no.

Even when she was in kindergarten, she had never seen a girl named Kim So-i or Kim So-hee.

“I heard that Hansol watches a lot of TV. Could that be the name she saw on TV?”

“… I don’t know.”

She’s always with Han Sol. If In Ara doesn’t know the name, there’s a good chance it is.

However, Ara had something on her mind.

Hansol’s voice filled with sadness.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she called her name.

Kim So-ira’s instinctive uneasiness felt in her name.

“Let’s go home for now. Have to take the bus Hansol will wait too.”

“Yes… “

Ara and Minah went to the classroom where Hansol was waiting.

However, such an unpleasant ending was unbearable for Ara.

———-

“Kim Soi, don’t come.”

“… What?”

After the school bus passed Mina’s house, Ara spat out words when she and Hansol were left alone.

Without answering Hansol’s question, Ara stared at Hansol with her calm face.

Hansol calmed down his surprise and asked again with a seemingly peaceful face.

“Ara, what did you say? Cow… this? Is he your classmate?”

“Soyi Kim. Do you not know Sol?”

“… Uh, I don’t know.”

There was no trembling in Hansol’s voice.

His expression also remained expressionless.

Arra laughed at Hansol’s attitude.

“Ah~ That’s right! Come to think of it, it was So-hee, not So-hee! Park So-hee! Sol is in your class, didn’t you know?”

“Park… Sohee? Uh, uh… I think there was a kid like that… Hey, how do I know if the last name is wrong… “

“hehehe, sorry. Hey, did he appear in your dream? I saw you just once yesterday, but you came out in my dream and chased after me! I was so scared!”

“What, you said something was strange today, so was that?”

“Yes! Sorry sol? Still, she was ashamed to say that she was scared of me and a boy of her age.”

What was that like? But he remembers his dreams well.

She had that thought, but Hansol was relieved.

She was surprised by Soi’s name that suddenly appeared, but she didn’t seem to notice that she had memories of her past life.

As she relaxed, Hansol lowered her head and let out a sigh.

And she was stroking Hansol’s back, laughing hehehehe, but her eyes did not smile.

A subtle change in Hansol’s expression, disguised as composure.

Even though he deliberately pronounced it hard to understand whether it was Soyi or Sohee, Hansol immediately recognized it as Soyi.

‘Sol lied.’

The name Kim So-ra was imprinted on Ara’s head.
