Chapter 71: Chapter 71

.

There were only about a few minutes left until the end of lunchti when the teacher suddenly ca into the classroom. He then hysterically placed sothing on the teacher’s table with a thud and went back out.

What was that…? Even the kids, who were talking loudly at the back, did not notice the teacher were here for a mont.

Yoon Jung In, whom we recently elected as class president despite Shin Suh Hyun’s earnest refusal of it, walked in front of the class and picked up the sheets of paper from the table. Oh, I was having a bad feeling about this… As I frowned my brows, Yoon Jung In turned back to speak to the class.

“I see what this is. Do you guys know that we have the SAT grading machine? Our school is the first to grade the mock exam, so this is the result sheet. I’ll call your numbers. Co and take your papers once you heard your number.”

Oh my god, how could they give out the scores on the day after the exam? So kids were muttering among themselves with agony deep in their eyes. I was like them as I looked in front with a stern expression.

To be honest, I only studied hard for the class placent test but not for the SAT mock exam. Besides, I never missed a day when Ban Yeo Ryung and the Four Heavenly Kings hanged-out together with . However, unlike them, I was not a genius.

The class president called my number almost at the end, so my heart was pounding hard when I received the sheet. It was then when soone snatched Yi Ruda’s report card from her hands as she sat beside . I looked at my side in surprise.

The boy who took Yi Ruda’s sheet was her close friend. He murmured with an excited face.

“Yi Ruda, let’s see. Your English score would definitely be 100, right?”

“Co on.”

Yi Ruda tried to take her report sheet back while showing a dumbfounded smile. The boy’s eyes then widened. He scread out loud, looking at Yi Ruda in astonishnt.

“Wow, Yi Ruda! You almost scored perfect in other subjects! She’s also excellent in the Korean Language!”

“Oh, co on, why are you telling them that?”

Yi Ruda then got up from her seat and put the boy in a headlock. Regardless of her action, the boy yelled out everywhere as if he just got the biggest scoop of the year.

“Yi Ruda almost scored perfect in every subject! Holy cow!”

As I stared at them in a flurry, I heard a noise from the hallway. It seed that they did not give the report cards only to our class. Soon, a boy ran into our classroom flapping his hair.

He strode toward Yoon Jung In as if he knew him well. Then he held Yoon Jung In’s shoulder and said out loud almost shouting.

“Dude, soone in our class got a perfect score for the whole exam!”

“W… hat?”

The boy’s voice was so loud that it was not only Yoon Jung In who heard his words. Everyone in our classroom gazed at the boy in bewildernt.

I slowly hung my head down at a loss of words since it was obvious who the perfect scorer would be. Co on, who would it be?

“You know that girl, Ban Yeo Ryung! That drop-dead gorgeous girl got perfect scores in all subjects!”

“Wow.”

“God has put everything on her.”

I turned my head around as the kids talked like that with flabbergasted faces.

Yi Ruda also looked discombobulated. She then directed her eyes on and whispered.

“It would have taken a lot out of you.”

“I’m used to it.”

I replied while knitting my brows. It was already sothing familiar to to hear how insanely distinguished Ban Yeo Ryung and the Four Heavenly Kings were. I dropped my gaze at my report card then shoved it inside my bag out of distress after thinking about Ban Yeo Ryung’s perfect test results.

I did not hate that my best friend was doing well at school. Instead, it even made feel good when she did well since we were friends; however, apart from that, it was not delightful to think she lived next door and both of our parents were close.

I looked outside the window while pressing my temples with my fingers. It was still too early until sunset. Once I get back ho, my parents would blast to the brim of my soul. With that thought alone, I had a hunch that it would be a long day.

It was such a strange thing that the fact that I’m feeling under the weather delighted Yi Ruda. As I tried to bid farewell to her, I saw that the school entrance was abuzz again.

Black limos were probably around the entrance, and the n in black will soon co across the schoolyard.

Yi Ruda looked out the window as if she was asuring the distance around her then smiled in embarrassnt when our eyes t. She told her last words jumping out of the window.

“See you tomorrow!”

“Okay! Adios!”

Yi Ruda now lowered her voice when talking to to mimic a boy’s tone.

Her sparkling gold-blond hair disappeared across the schoolyard. After watching her leave my sight, I stretched myself and tried to leave the classroom too. It was then when I saw soone leaning in front of the classroom.

The waist-length glossy black hair was sothing familiar to , so I called her na imdiately.

“Hey, Ban Yeo Ryung!”

“Oh, hi.”

“Let’s go.”

I wore my backpack and walked towards her; however, I noticed how Ban Yeo Ryung’s face looked a little strange. She should look bright after getting the perfect scores in all subjects, but I saw dark shades hanging under her eyes instead.

Did she hear sothing bad? The fact that Ban Yeo Ryung had a pretty face and how she was overwhelming in every aspect would probably an that she would hear so backbiting now and then. One of such cases was how Baek Yeo Min treated her during our freshman year in middle school. Everyone was full of smiles in front of Ban Yeo Ryung, but there existed so people who gossiped about her behind her back, which was sothing appalling the more I thought about it.

I grabbed her hand to cheer her up and asked her in wonder.

“Why? Did sothing happen?”

“…”

She hid nothing to , so I expected an imdiate response, but she remained mute. She shook her head firmly while biting her cherry-red lip as she walked ahead of with big strides.

Um… what was going on? I chased her at a faster pace as I felt a bit confused. Ban Yeo Ryung’s black hair gently waved according to her steps.

Then she suddenly stopped, which almost made bump on her back and that would definitely force both of us to fall on the stairs. Ban Yeo Ryung’s eyes, which were looking at , were full of tears. She then spoke to as I stared at her in perplexity.

“We were never in different classes until now.”

“Um… huh?”

Did we? I was 14 when I first ca to this world, so I was not sure about what happened in elentary school.

Ban Yeo Ryung bit her lip again. I knew that it was sothing she did when she’s trying to fight back her tears. She continued speaking in a trembling voice.

“I… I just…”

“Yeah?”

“Ugh, I shouldn’t say this.”

Co on, stop stalling. As I stared at her with an absurd feeling, she quickly walked down the stairs with a blush indicating her embarrassnt. Despite her fast pace, her moves were so seamless that I could grasp how athletic she was. However, it was useless at this mont. I followed her back with a smile.

The twilight laid thickly over the pale-yellow schoolyard. A bunch of students slowly walked across the field in groups.

Ban Yeo Ryung, who was standing in front of the shoe rack, still had a sullen face as she stared at . I ended up asking her again.

“Co on, what’s on your mind?”

“It seems like I’m acting like a baby… so nevermind.”

“…”

I looked up at her in confusion. It was surprising to know that this beautiful and perfect girl had so unexpected sides. What a great day to find the hidden aspects lurking within a person’s heart.

The thought I had while holding my phone a few days ago finally turned into sothing unspoken. I wanted them to promise to never leave alone but it was such a childish thing that I considered it was a problem I have to deal with on my loneso.

They will have no monts to behave like a baby with . Ban Yeo Ryung, who had everything, was, however, cutting a frail figure in front of .
