When I Returned, a High School Romantic Comedy Began

11. Second traffic accident (1)

“excuse me…”

“…”

“Mr. Chaerin?”

We left the library facing an awkward atmosphere.

Even though I called her name dozens of times until she left school, she didn’t respond.

“Can you please answer me?”

I don’t know if I should get angry, but it’s rather uncomfortable because no matter how many times I call him, he doesn’t even answer.

She didn’t say anything until she passed the school gate, but when I called her name really earnestly, she finally answered.

“Do you have anything to do with Medusa?”

“I said I was sorry…”

Chae-rin walked quickly alone without even turning her head in my direction, probably because she was so upset.

I felt like it would be really hard to handle if I let her go like this, so I walked at her pace.

“They kept asking me if I was dating, so I had no choice but to speak loudly…”

Although the tone was too emotional to say that.

To be honest, some things were exaggerated a bit to avoid misunderstanding.

But to Chae-rin, it all sounded like a meaningless excuse.

“Just get out of there. “I hate it enough to give you that nickname, so why do you keep following me?”

Moreover, because of my eyes, I was often mistaken for Iljin, so I had a bit of a complex about it.

When I heard the strange nickname Medusa, I couldn’t help but feel hurt.

“It’s annoying that I’m obsessed with someone every day, but do I even have to listen to that?”

“No, I’m afraid you’ll get annoyed because of the strange rumor…”

“Then you can just turn it off. “It’s great that there aren’t even any rumors.”

Jaune had nothing to say against the perfect logic.

If you were worried about her getting caught up in an unwanted misunderstanding, you shouldn’t have bothered her in the first place.

‘Ha… I’m trying to save you, why are you doing this?’

At this point, Jaune was also a little annoyed.

‘I’m not doing this to please you, so do I have to be so servile?’

There was no benefit for him to watch Chaerin.

At most, you’ll get at least a word of thanks.

Is there any reason to keep her alive like this, expecting such a reward?

Although I was a little skeptical about why I was doing this.

“Hey, calm down.”

Still, Jaune followed Chaerin.

I was a person who couldn’t see people dying just because it was annoying and annoying, so I couldn’t help it.

Chaerin, who had been walking fast for a while, stopped in front of a red light and said.

“Why on earth are you following me?”

“…”

“Why do I hang out with a b*tch who I don’t like and whose eyes are so fierce?”

Jaune just remained silent in response to the question she asked.

I knew that if I just said I liked it here, everything would go easily and comfortably…

‘If I had to see that lie now, I wouldn’t believe it.’

Because it was obvious that Chae-rin would not believe that.

In fact, there was no way she wouldn’t believe it.

I was a little anxious while talking with my friend, but objectively speaking, I couldn’t think of any reason to go after someone I didn’t like.

If I just said I liked it here, I could believe it, even if it looked shabby.

“…”

The problem was that Jaune had so little interaction with women that he did not notice such feelings.

Chaerin’s patience finally exploded at his shameless silence.

His originally sharp tone became cold to the point that he didn’t show it to anyone when he got angry.

“Don’t follow me.”

Just then, the signal changed along with those words.

She moved to the zebra-like crosswalk, wanting to get away from him right away.

It was that moment.

The reason why I couldn’t explain it to Chae-rin until now.

“hey!”

Why did you cling to her every day?

Something that could not be explained in words rushed towards Chae-rin.

“uh?”

My legs stopped.

The horn blaring from the truck as if it was going to eat her at any moment.

It made Chaerin unable to move.

There was too little time to even imagine what the consequences would be if we collided like this.

All she can do is wait for the truck to eat her.

“Move!”

But the perspective has changed.

The sky before my eyes should turn black as it spins around.

It turned into Jaune, who grabbed his arm and flew him away.

He was standing where he should have been just a moment ago.

With an urgent look on his face, he threw himself backwards and was thrown back on the spot due to the recoil.

bang!

“Buy, man!”

“Call 119 quickly!”

He hit the truck and went flying through the air.

I couldn’t say anything as I saw blood flying away.

“Ahh…”

I just let out meaningless moans.

[Wake up, Dad… Don’t play around, quickly!!]

For the second time in her life, she faced a car accident right in front of her eyes.

*

I was 6 years old.

The day before I entered elementary school, I excitedly went out to buy writing instruments and a school bag.

“lol…”

“Ugh~ You like it that much?”

“huh! “I like it better because my dad bought it for me!”

It was a smile that made it difficult to imagine that she would later be nicknamed Medusa when she grew up.

Always a bright and cheerful child.

The good looks inherited from his actor parents were already shining, and he had an angelic smile that healed your heart just by looking at him.

“Our princess speaks so beautifully~”

I was always happy.

Endless favors from parents and people around you who love you.

It was truly a life worthy of being called a princess in this era.

However, it appears that the family could not remain in harmony forever.

“I have to go quickly and brag to my mom~”

The excitement made her sloppy.

I was always taught to look around carefully when crossing a crosswalk.

I made a mistake.

“Chaerin!”

“huh?”

Her father threw himself into a mid-sized car running towards her.

It is an instinct that cannot be helped by any parent who has children.

bang!

Chae-rin, who was later caught by the arm and thrown off the crosswalk, realized for the first time that there was more blood in the human body than imagined.

“Ah, Dad…”

My father doesn’t answer even when I call him.

He had already lost so much blood that he passed out and could not answer her call.

Chae-rin ran towards her father, who had flown far away, with one shoe off.

“Wake up, Dad… Don’t play around, quickly!!”

Eventually, a citizen nearby quickly reported it and he was taken to the emergency room within a few minutes.

“sorry. “He had already lost so much blood that there was no way.”

There was no turning back because the broken ribs pierced my heart.

My father, who had been smiling at me until a week ago, turned into pure white powder.

That became an indelible guilt that remained in her heart.

Because of that, Chae-rin was traumatized and could not even cross the crosswalk.

It is said that time is the best counselor.

Fortunately, by the time I reached middle school, I was able to resume normal activities.

But why?

“Buy, man!”

“Call 119 quickly!”

Could this happen again?

Jaune is bleeding after being hit by a car, just like his father.

The memories of that time come back again and again, and my arms start shaking.

“Ahh…”

This time, as before, the ambulance arrived quickly.

So I was even more anxious.

The situation was strangely the same as it was during my father’s time.

“Is your guardian okay?”

“…”

The fire paramedic saw her complexion and asked, but she gave no answer.

No, it is correct to say that it was not done accurately.

“Because of me… again, again…”

“…”

The crew saw that and didn’t say anything more.

No matter what anyone said to her in a panicked situation, it was not going to get any better.

As time passed, Joo-woon arrived at the hospital and immediately went into surgery.

His mother also arrived at the emergency room shortly after receiving the call, struggling to move her limping leg.

“Jaune… you can’t go too…”

“…”

His father never arrives.

Your mother says you shouldn’t go either.

I didn’t want to know.

But I had no choice but to know it implicitly.

That he, like himself, lived a life without a father.

Looking at Jaune’s mother sobbing, she fell into even more despair.

Because I know better than anyone else the sorrow of losing a family member.

Moreover, the fact that someone else may lose their family because of you.

The fact that one can kill one’s own family and even kill other people’s families.

“Sorry Sorry…”

It caused Chaerin to fall endlessly.

In front of the operating room is Avi Gyu-hwan.

The place was so filled with despair that it was difficult to get any words out. As soon as the operating room door opened and the doctor came out, my mother stood up and asked,

“teacher! “My son… he’s okay, right?”

“…”

Chae-rin and Joo-woon’s mother looks at the doctor with half anticipation and half fear.

The doctor let out a heavy sigh and spoke confidently.

“Fortunately, there were no major injuries, only fractures. “I got hit by a truck and it was just luck.”

The surgery was successful.

After hearing those words, the mother sat down in front of the doctor and repeatedly expressed her gratitude.

“…”

However, Chaerin’s face showed no signs of brightening.

The trauma resurfaced after 10 years.

I felt like I had committed a sin that nothing could wash away, and I was only slightly relieved that I did not feel even greater despair.
