Heejin fell in the corridor, both her knees hitting those cold floors pretty hard.
"HAHAHAHAHA..."
Laughter immediately rang out from the corridor, those students laughed out loud while holding their stomachs because they saw Heejin who fell in front of them.
"Hey! Hey! Quickly get your phone out!"
"Hahaha look how stupid she is."
"Is she blind?! She didn't even see that rope. Stupid hahaha."
Heejin lowered her head with her hands on her knees which were bruised and slightly bleeding. She was so stupid because she didn't realize that they had attached a rope which they pulled as soon as Heejin passed.
Heejin with pain in her knees slowly tried to stand up but she was already surrounded by several students from her school.
"Hey, Kim Heejin. Aren't you embarrassed?" said the woman. "Ah... I forgot you have no shame because you're a wh*re."
"HAHAHAHA," for the second time sound of laughter rang out from the corridor.
The woman pushed Heejin's head with her index finger. "You shouldn't be in this school with us, right friends?" she shouted.
"THAT'S RIGHT!" answered the students at the same time which sounded so loud.
Heejin clenched her fists, she just lowered her head. what can she do?
She's all alone, but look at them... they're all around her and laughing at her right now. It was as if Heejin was a very interesting show to look at.
The woman folded her arms in front of her chest. "You're a wh*re," the woman scorned.
Heejin was silent, she bit her lower lip tightly, her heart was broken to hear the insults she got.
If you can see her heart right now, then you will see Heejin's heart that has been shattered into pieces. That's how she feels right now, she's hurt.
"I'm not a wh*re," Heejin muttered.
"Huh? What did you say? I can't hear you," said the woman and bringing her ear closer to Heejin.
Heejin clenched her fists tightly, then slowly raised her head. "I'm not a wh*re!" said Heejin looking at the woman in front of her.
She couldn't take it anymore.
She couldn't stand all this humiliation anymore.
She wasn't a wh*re like the girls at her school always said about her. She never even had a boyfriend and until now she still hasn't gotten her first kiss.
Are you surprised?
What Heejin said was the truth, she had never kissed before. So how could they all easily say that she was a wh*re?!
Is it because she is poor and doesn't come from a rich family?!
"Pfftt... Hahahaha..." the woman laughed while holding her stomach. "Did you guys hear what she said?"
Heejin furrowed her brows. Which part of her speech sounded funny, why was that woman laughing? Nothing in her words sounded funny.
The woman then stopped laughing. Her right hand then raised and...
GRAB
"AGHHH!" shouted Heejin.
The woman pulled Heejin's hair so tightly that Heejin lifted her head because of the woman's tug on her hair.
Heejin held her head. "L-let go... shhh..." her scalp was currently really sore from the strong tug she was receiving from her long hair.
It hurts, really hurts.
The woman didn't care at all about Heejin's whining. But Heejin's whining became entertainment for the women and students in the corridor.
"Then how do you get into this school if you're not a wh*re? Look at us... we're all very different from you," said the woman.
Still holding her head, Heejin looked at her schoolmates who were currently surrounding her with smiles on their faces.
And yes... she was very different from all of them. Look at the expensive watches, cell phones, and shoes they wear. Very much different from Heejin who can only use worn shoes.
What the woman said was true, she shouldn't be in this school with them because this is not her place.
"Now you see, don't you? So, if it weren't for you working as wh*re, You won't be able to enter this school." the woman continued with a smirk on her face.
Heejin's eyes filled with tears, she was already at the threshold. The woman's words hurt Heejin's feelings for the umpteenth time they all laughed tirelessly laughing at Heejin, and treated Heejin like a clown.
Heejin couldn't do anything, she just resigned herself to everything. Even one of the many students surrounding her none of them wanted to help her.
So she will accept everything with resignation. Until...
GRAB
Within a second, Heejin suddenly felt someone pulling her and tightly hugging her waist. She also no longer felt a tug on her long hair that made her wince in pain earlier.
Also suddenly the students who were in the corridor became silent, no more laughing sounds like before.
"What are you doing?" said the man.
Silence.
Not a single one of them made the slightest sound even some of them lowered their heads.
"I ASKED YOU! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" shouted the man in the same uniform as the one Heejin was wearing.
Everyone was shocked to hear the man's screams that could be heard at the end of the corridor. The man's eyes then looked at the woman who was right in front of him at this time.
"You... what do you think you did to her huh?" said the man coldly.
The woman froze. "I-I... I just..."
The man looked back, looking at Heejin who was behind his back and was looking at him at this time. He then looked back at the woman in front of him.
"I don't like what you've done." the man said. "I hate it."
The woman shook her head, she then looked at Heejin and pointed at Heejin with her index finger. "She deserves it because she was a wh*re! Why are you defending a woman like her?! She doesn't deserve to be in school--"
BRAK
"SHUT UP!" the man kicked the chair in the corridor until it was thrown.
The woman froze on the spot hearing the man's screams and anger. Not only the woman but Heejin was also shocked by what the man had just done.
The man walked up to the woman. "Do you know who I am? So watch your words."
"Y-Yeonsuk..."
"Shut up! Don't you dare to say my name! And let me tell you the one is a wh*re it's you. So shut the hell up!" Yeonsuk said angrily.
That's right, that man is Yeonsuk. The man who had defended and saved Heejin from bullying the woman and their schoolmates.
Yeonsuk immediately turned around, gripped Heejin's hand tightly, and immediately pushed his way through the crowd of students. Carrying Heejin away from the corridor with wide strides.
The woman who had insulted Heejin immediately fell in the corridor with her hands shaking and saw Yeonsuk who left with Heejin.
