As soon as the meeting came to an end, the news of the failed attempt by the girl and her parents to bully the poor Hyewon into being sacked from the school travelled real fast like a wildfire.
This was only a hush-hush rumour, as no one dared to say it to her face. But she heard it anyway, courtesy of her two tactless girl friends.
In a rage, she busted into Hyewon during a lunch break to pick a fight with her, but Hyewon did not mind, even when she kept insulting her and hitting her on the head with a stack of books on the desk next to Hyewon's.
It hurts, but Hyewon knows that she has to endure it. She was now in her final year. Just a few more months, and then she would be out here.
She kept telling herself to endure, endure, and endure, even when the two other silly friends also joined in occasionally. Their insults were only getting worse.
Other students surrounded them and were looking to see what would happen.
