8. My child's father found out
To Lee Jeong-oh, Chae Eun-bi is a memory that cannot be forgotten even if he tries to forget it.
Noon and Eunbi were in the same class in their first year of high school.
During the first semester of his first year in high school, Noon was an ordinary student who was friendly with all his classmates.
Eunbi was quite popular. She was always surrounded by her friends and there was always laughter around her.
Everything about Eunbi has always been a hot topic. From the clothes I wore, my bags, my shoes, the cosmetics I carried, to my writing instruments, there was nothing that wasn't a luxury item, and if I had a friend who showed interest, I sometimes gave it as a gift.
All of Eunbi's friends had something that Eunbi used.
On the way back, I heard that Eunbin's family was a lawyer. Moreover, since Eunbi's mother was her daughter's president, her teachers often asked Eunbi how her parents were doing.
He was a friend who shined in many ways. However, it did not mean that Noon was jealous of Eunbi. Noon was a student who knew how to be grateful for what was given to him.
Anyway, the two got along amicably. There were no problems during the first semester of freshman year. No, I think there might have been something that Noon couldn't remember. But the problem did not threaten school life.
When the midterm exam for the second semester of the first year was just over, Eunbi spoke warmly to Noon.
"It's noon, do you want this? "I never used it."
What Eunbi offered was lip gloss. The brand logo, which resembles two horseshoes overlapping, gave an idea of the price of the lip gloss. It would be more expensive than the shoes and bag at noon combined.
I thought about touching it, but Noon immediately shook his head.
"no. are you okay."
"It would be nice to have one."
"no. I don't wear makeup. "It's really okay."
Noon had no idea why Eunbi was recommending such a gift. It was even more burdensome because it was a gift for no reason.
Noon repeatedly refused, but Eunbi suggested it one more time.
"You have a pretty face, so you would look prettier with makeup. And this is a luxury product."
"I really don't need it, Eunbi."
A classroom with no one in it. Noon cautiously expressed his gratitude, fearing that the quiet voice filling the silence might seem like he was being mean.
"Thank you for your consideration. sorry."
Did that polite refusal offend Eunbi? Eunbi's lips seemed to be slightly twisted.
After that conversation, Eunbi never spoke to Noon.
Afterwards, Noon felt that her classmates' eyes were different from before.
Should we call it subtle bullying? Friends who used to greet me brightly when I met them stopped smiling after some time, and they often stopped talking after noon. Eunbi and her close friends even openly ignored Noon.
Even when I went to eat lunch, I was alone at noon. I wasn't too sad about being alone.
Noon was my favorite time for lunch and dinner. In addition to delicious food, it was because the person whom Noon loved most in the world was waiting for him at the cafeteria.
