Ye Jun stopped in his tracks as he heard Min Jae calling Se Jeong out. Se Jeong looked at him and he ran to her. Pulling her away from the railing, he hugged her and caressed her head as she sobbed under his embrace.
Ye Jun stood behind a tree, not visible to them, but he could hear Se Jeong crying and it broke his heart.
"What should I do now?" she cried despite him consoling her.
"I feel like dying, Min Jae."
"How could he do such a thing?..." she kept mumbling while Min Jae kept caressing her head.
"I trusted him..."
The words she spoke made him remember the day of high school when he had complained against Nari to the principal and she was on the verge of suspension.

Nari now hated Ye Jun more than anyone. It was confirmed by how she slapped him in the corridor in front of everyone.
