"Eomma... who is this person with me inside these pictures?", SinB ask her mother while showing her the pictures from the cellphone she got from her mom days after she woke up.

"I don't know honey. I guess she's one of your friends. But since it's been 5 years, I don't even remember or know her name... But I guess you guys are pretty close tho~"

An answer that doesn't even help SinB to remember anything.

...............................

SinB is focusing herself at every single words coming out from the lecturer's mouth. She wrote it diligently inside her notebook while her ears keep hearing on what the lecturer's teaching.

After the class finally come to the end, she hurriedly rushes herself to the restroom because her stomach was aching all of sudden.

While doing her business inside there, she heard some stomps and footsteps inside the restroom. Then she heard some girls saying some harsh words.

That's when SinB know, someone is fighting inside the restroom.

"Not here too...", SinB sigh.

"I already said to you f*ckin countless time to stay away from Eunwoo! Aren't you f*ckin hear what I'm saying?!", a girl shout while pushing someone(?) maybe because SinB can hear a loud thud of the wall.

"I already said to you that we're just friends! Me and Eunwoo are just friends!!"

Pakk!!

A sound of someone has been slapped was heard by SinB. She can just gasp at how rude that one girl did to that another girl.

"Wait what? Eunwoo?? Ah... that guy who fighting 3 days ago. This girl must be the one with them that time..."

"F*ckin lier!! You broke up with Taehyung yesterday because you want to be with Eunwoo!!", that rude girl shout again. Seriously my ears gonna explode.

"I'm not doing that because of that reason!!"

Pakk!!

"SHUT YOUR F*CKIN MOUTH!!!"

"Wait what?? Another slap? Seriously this gonna be insane. I need to do something! Think Hwang Eunbi... Think!"

Without thinking much, SinB just push the flush button. She just wanna warn those girls that someone hearing all of that inside.

FLUSH!

"Crap someone is here! You are lucky today!", that rude girls said and finally leave the crime scene. But wait... what? The sounds of the footsteps doesn't sound like it's just one person doing.

SinB hurriedly get out from the restroom to see a girl who was wearing a one piece gown, fixing her messy hair because of those bullies just now.

"Hey are you--- oh god your nose...", SinB pulled out some tissues when she saw the girl's nose are bleeding.

"Ne?", the girl slightly touching her nose to see that red liquid coming out from her nose. SinB quickly handed the tissues to the girl and that girl quickly covered her nose with it.

"Eoh kamsahamnida...", she said while washing away the blood from her hands.

"By the way are you alright? What they did to you is pretty bad. Your cheek... its red...", SinB pointing to that girl cheek and when she look at the mirror, SinB was right. Her cheek was totally red because of the slaps she received just now.

"Ah... gwaenchanayo~ Thank you for stopping them", she said and then she throw away the bloody tissue into the trash can.

"Ah... no big deals~ Then I will go right now. Bye!", SinB said to the girls and slowly stepping out from the restroom. The girl want to talk more and know about SinB but she already gone.

"I didn't even know your name yet...."

................................

"So they really broke up yesterday?", SinB ask Eunha after Eunha told SinB about the news.

"Eoh. Rumours said that it's because Taehyung was too much for not letting his girlfriend to interact with anyone. So she decide to break up with him...", Eunha answered while slurping her favourite drinks.

It's Pepsi~

"Then I'm right for saying that that guy was a trash~", SinB said while smirking proudly of herself.

"By the way since when you attracted to this kind of things huh? You usually didn't even want to know about other people business", Eunha ask while lifting one of her eyebrows.

SinB usually closing herself to interact yet to know about others. Only Eunha is licky enough to befriend with SinB for some reason. But still, SinB will totally ignore anything about other people business.

"Ah... it's just that... I talk to that girl today...", SinB said and took a bite of the freshly fried spring onion.

"Who? You? Talk with Jung Yerin? Why??", Eunha eyes widen when she know that there's a shocking things SinB had done today. SinB interacting with people? Wow. That's new~

"So her name was Jung Yerin?"

"It's not like I wanted to. There's something happened making me to talk to her. Then, the end", SinB said while showing the 'the end' hand gesture to Eunha. Eunha can just sigh on disappointment.

"Mwoya... I thought you interacting with people for real. Heh... You give me fake hope...", Eunha pout.

.................................

"Yaaa Jung Yerin what happened to your face? Don't tell me it's Taehyung's doings!", Yerin step-sister said when she saw how red Yerin's cheek right now.

"Aniya. I accidentally fell down inside the restroom. The floor was just a bit slippery...", Yerin said, lying to her sister.

Jung Yerin, 23.

"Don't tell lies Jung Yerin! Tell me the truth...", her sister asked Yerin again. She really cannot accept it when someone's hurting her one and only younger sister, even they are step-sisters. They are sisters with different mother, same father.

Kim Sojung (Sowon), 24.

"Aniya~ Don't worry about it~", Yerin smiled brightly towards Sowon. After succeed to make her older sister believe her lies, Yerin walk towards her room with a straight expression.

"Take some rest!", Sowon shout.

"Eoh..."

"Clean yourself!", she shout again.

"Eoh..."

"Don't forget to---"

"Arasseo eonni! Aishh....", Yerin just take a glance at her annoying yet caring older sister, and finally headed towards her room for real.

..................................

After done cleaning herself, Yerin suddenly remembered the incident happened at the toilet this evening. Thanks to that unknown girl, nothing bad happen to Yerin. Just a slightly red on her cheek.

"If she wasn't there maybe I will already staying in hospital tonight~"

Yerin was thankful towards that girl. But unluckily, she didn't remember or didn't have any chance to ask her name. So sad.

"Btw her face was kinda similar to Eunbi~ I just realize it right now..."

The chance of them to meet each other at the university also disappointed Yerin. To find that one person in that SUPER DUPER HUGE university, maybe it will take days or months, only if God helps them to meet.

But because of that incident, suddenly Yerin thought of someone. That someone who was very close to her years ago, that someone who she adore and love the most, but then she never knew that she will never meet her again for the rest of her life.

That day when that person supposed to have their happy school day as usual, Yerin only thought that she didn't come to school maybe because she's sick.

Later she tried to call that person cellphone number, but ended up with the same machine voice saying to call back later.

Just one day after that, she realized that that person is already dead... making Yerin world stop for a moment, thinking about someone she adore for the whole primary school period.... is gone.

"You used to protect me from bullies back then..."

*Flashback...

Jung Yerin, 13.

"It is informed that the total loss of the tragic bus accident yesterday finally reached to 12 today. The left's condition was reported critical....."

"Junh Yerin what are you watching?", Sowon ask Yerin who watching the news focusly. Her eyes didn't even blink looking at the TV screen.

"Ahh... news~", Yerin answered.

"Mwoya... Since when you like to watch that kind of thing....", Sowon teased Yerin and continue to eat her food.

"We give our great mourn and condolence to the families and friends of the loss....", the reporter bowed her body 45 degree in sadness. Yerin who keep watching the news also bowed her body to the TV.

Later, every single name of the people involved in that tragedy was shown. Yerin read every single name and she only focusing to ONE name in a great shock.

Kim XX
Park XX
Kim XX
Eun XX
Lee XX
Son XX
Park XX
Kang XX
Lee XX
Han XX
Yoo XX
Hwang Eunbi
Woo XX
Kim XX
Noh XX

"Hwang... Eunbi...?", Yerin look at that name confusely. Is it that Hwang Eunbi she known? Is it that Hwang Eunbi she adore? Is that really she?

Remebering that Eunbi didn't answered her call, also today's news making Yerin's heart worried out of nowhere.

They supposed to meet the day the tragedy happened. SinB promise Yerin to stop by her middle school because she said she had something to give her.

Then the day after that she personally asking and heard from SinB's homeroom teacher that her Eunbi was in a critical condition and in coma.

She was break down that time, kneeling after knowing that her Eunbi at the oeak of her life. Later she know that the loss is increasing and the survivor was unknown.

Years later, she already told her mind that Hwang Eunbi is gone when there's no more news about the survivor or the loss. After that, she never met Hwang Eunbi for the rest of her life.

......................................

Yerin didn't realized a drop of tears finally flown through her cheek. She just smirk in desbelief. What are she thinking right now? She cursed herself again and again.

Yerin opened her pouch and took out a picture of her and Eunbi when Eunbi is 10 and Yerin is 11. They look so happy in that single picture. She look at that picture with her teary eyes.
