37. How to get rid of bugs (8)

“under…”

The homeroom teacher’s sigh echoes through the teacher’s office.

I could definitely feel the worry and worry inside.

“Jaune, I wouldn’t say anything if it was a moderate fight, but this is too much.”

“sorry…”

I had nothing to say.

Even if the other person comes to the class first and causes a disturbance, violence is always perceived as an incorrect measure.

Actually, if we had exchanged it in moderation, it wouldn’t have been a big problem.

It was hard to get over it lightly because it was enough to make one of my arms weak.

‘Ha… But I’m glad I called in advance before the school contacted me.’

As soon as Jaune left class, he immediately contacted his hospitalized mother.

I made the call because I thought people would be less surprised if I called first rather than if the school suddenly called me.

Fortunately, contrary to my expectations, my mother, who heard the circumstances surrounding the incident, calmly comforted me.

[Yes, it may have been a little excessive, but I handled it well.]

Was it taken into consideration because it was an accident with some justification?

The call ended with only advice to find the most peaceful way possible next time.

‘I’m glad you weren’t too surprised though.’

Jaune’s homeroom teacher asked as he was thinking about his mother’s reaction.

“We both need to call our guardians… but you said your mother is hospitalized, right?”

“Yes, there is no one who can come right now.”

My father passed away and my mother is in rehabilitation at the hospital after leg surgery, so she cannot come to school.

‘I should just finish it on my own and not be a child.’

It was a bit lonely, but it was something that could not be helped.

As Jaune sat quietly in the teacher’s office, resigned, the door to the teacher’s office burst open.

A familiar face was revealed.

“Jaune, are you okay?”

Hani slowly walks to her homeroom teacher with cute steps.

‘Why is my sister here?’

My homeroom teacher asked me as I saw my older sister approaching.

“… Are you my younger brother?”

When my parents didn’t come, the teacher looked embarrassed, thinking that my younger brother had come.

Despite the words and actions that could have been considered rude, my sister greeted the teacher without paying attention, perhaps because she was already accustomed to this reaction.

“Hello, this is Hayan.”

The homeroom teacher looked at her for a moment, heard her voice, and greeted her with a look on her face.

“Oh, I’m sorry… You must be Hayan’s older sister.”

“It’s okay, I often get misunderstood like that.”

Hani seems to have calmly moved on, perhaps because it always happened.

However, what came here was not something that could be easily overcome.

“First of all, can you explain properly what happened?”

Only then did I understand why my sister came.

‘Hayeon was also a victim, so of course he would have contacted me.’

Aside from the fight between himself and Changmin, Hayan also had problems.

My older sister greeted the teacher with a serious expression and talked about what happened today.

“Then what will be the disposition of that student?”

“First of all, the school violence committee will be held… There are so many things that student has committed that it will not be easily overlooked.”

“… All right.”

Hani is talking with a serious face.

Even though the story about Hayan was over, she did not leave her seat and spoke to her homeroom teacher.

“Teacher, you can also tell me a story about Jaune.”

“yes?”

The teacher, who did not really understand what was being said, looked puzzled.

My sister saw that and said.

“Except for Hayan, Jaune came as the guardian.”

“You say Jaune is your guardian?”

The teacher couldn’t hide his bewildered expression as if he still didn’t understand.

It was the same for me too.

“My sister is my guardian?”

“Yes, your mother asked for it.”

“ah…”

It’s okay to just be alone.

I felt a little uncomfortable because I felt like I had caused a nuisance for no reason.

Hani seemed to feel a little sorry when she saw that uncomfortable expression, so she spoke calmly.

“I had to come because of my younger brother anyway, so don’t think of it as a nuisance.”

“Besides, since you scolded me instead, I can do this much, right?”

“…”

The teacher was taken aback by the situation he was facing for the first time, but quickly grasped the situation and told several stories to his sister.

The story is that I have done too much and it is difficult to let go of it.

I’ll have to talk to Changmin’s parents, but it will be difficult to avoid disciplinary action.

Every time she brought up everything she had just told me, one by one, her face hardened.

“Okay, first of all, then when will my friend Changmin’s parents come?”

“You said you’d be here right away, so you’ll be there soon.”

As soon as those words were finished, the teacher’s room door opened again.

A large middle-aged man appeared there.

‘Anyone can see that they are that bastard’s parents.’

He has a scary face and a body that is 1.5 times larger than that of an average man.

Anyone could see that he was Changmin’s father.

He looked around for a moment, saw my slightly bruised face, and came striding towards me.

“Hello, this is Changmin’s father.”

“Oh, hello.”

A man who exudes tremendous intimidation from the very beginning.

The force radiating from his eyes was no joke.

After saying hello to the teacher, he looked at Jaune and asked bluntly:

“Are you Jaune?”

“… yes.”

The man looked over Jaune’s body in response to his short answer.

There was silence for a few seconds in the tense air, and then he spoke.

“You’ve been working out for quite some time.”

“…”

It was unpleasant.

Who’s the reason why I’m here for 4 months?

As soon as I entered school, I looked at my body and all I could say was, “You did some exercise.”

Jaune felt his anger rising again and responded sarcastically to what he said.

“I worked hard not to be bullied by someone like your son.”

“Jaune!”

The homeroom teacher automatically yelled at the full-blown provocation.

The air started to become harsh again.

Changmin’s father and Jaune made eye contact and said nothing.

After so much time has passed.

“ha ha ha!”

He observed Jaune’s eyes and laughed heartily.

“Yeah, I did it to avoid being bullied by a guy like my son…”

When he suddenly smiled, the teacher looked at him with a puzzled look on his face.

Eventually, Changmin’s father spoke to the teacher.

“Sir, we don’t have any specific wishes.”

“yes?”

“Anyway, Changmin also had accidents on random days, so why are you trying to punish him?”

Changmin’s father says something unexpected.

Since everyone was silent without any reaction, he looked at Jaune and said.

“There was no need to call Touji, but you were worried for no reason.”

“… yes?”

What are you talking about earlier?

Playing drums and janggu alone.

I couldn’t understand what was being said, but one thing was certain.

‘Did you avoid suspension?’

Since the victim has already requested leniency, the matter will not escalate significantly.

To be honest, I wondered if this was the attitude one would show to the person who broke his son’s arm, but…

‘You should just stay f*cking still.’

There was no need to scratch and make flakes, so I kept my mouth shut.

Changmin’s father left immediately after having a formal conversation with the teacher.

“Anyway, I think I’m done talking, so I’ll just go in now.”

“Yes, please go in carefully.”

The loud commotion came to an end.

“Still, I won’t get in trouble.”

Inside the quiet health room.

From noble mtl dot com

Hayan was receiving treatment for her slightly swollen cheek and scraped knee when she hit the floor when she fell.

“Now that the medicine has been applied, I’m just putting a little cold compress on my face.”

“thank you.”

“Okay, I have to go out somewhere for a bit, so if you’re okay, go to class.”

With those words, the nurse leaves the health room.

There was only silence in the quiet health room.

Chaerin, who was watching her from behind, spoke first.

“sorry.”

“… huh?”

Chae-rin’s face had been gloomy since before.

There were a lot of shocking things that happened that made me feel bad.

The biggest reason why she became so depressed was Hayan.

“That kid came to class because of me…”

The two had been at odds over Jaune since they first met, but he couldn’t help but feel sorry for her for getting hurt because of him.

‘If I had taken care of it properly, this wouldn’t have happened.’

She felt a sense of guilt she had never experienced before at the fact that not only Jaune but also Hayan got hurt in an unrelated incident because of her.

“Why are you apologizing? It’s all because of him.”

“…”

Hayan noticed her thoughts and spoke with a deliberate frown.

“I heard from the kids that you’ve been suffering for quite some time?”

Chaerin couldn’t open her mouth due to her heavy heart and just nodded her head slightly.

“You don’t have to apologize to me when you’re the same victim.”

“… still.”

“Uh-huh!”

Hayan cutely scolded her for her continued self-blame.

“No sorry expressions allowed! “Rather, I’m grateful.”

“Thank you?”

Chaerin looked at Hayan as if she didn’t understand.

Who is it that makes my small white skin swell red and say things like that?

Looking at the dumbfounded expression, Hayan smiled calmly and said.

“Jaune was really angry because of me.”

Hayan lowered his voice tone and imitated Jaune.

“’You hit that little kid until he fell to the floor, and now you’re done?’ hehehe… that was kind of cool.”

“…”

Obviously, anyone could think that if they saw him getting angry for himself.

‘If it weren’t for what he said while twisting his arm.’

Hayan purely smiles at a scene that would give an ordinary person goosebumps and says it’s cool.

I was already out of my mind because my eyes were filled with bean pods.

‘Of course, I thought it was kind of cool, but…’

And it was the same for Chae-rin.

Although it was a little scary, how could she have negative feelings towards the man who saved her twice?

Hayan let out a mischievous laugh, which gradually diminished, and looked at Chaerin seriously.

The public health room became quiet again.

She put the ice pack down on the desk and slowly approached Chae-rin and held her in her arms.

“You’ve been through so much, it’ll be okay now.”

“…”

A sudden warm temperature.

All the pain I’ve experienced so far passes by like a panorama with just one word, “I worked hard.”

Now that we can call it the past, and the consideration in Hayan’s voice brought about a sadder feeling than the guilt that had been in my heart just a moment ago.

“Black…”

“…”

Hayan patted Chaerin without saying anything as the tears wetted her shoulders.
