"Attal" "Okay" "What?" "Was it MP3 player that Cheon-ji wanted?" "There are so many different kinds" "You said you needed to save up for security deposit" "It's an MP3 player It's not gonna make us homeless" "Can you ask her which model she wants?"

"We also deliver" "We'll pop around We live next door" "How kind of you!" "Enjoy your noodles" "Study hard for mom, okay?" "They say 'unlucky in marriage, poor luck with children too'" "Prove them wrong" "With what luck could I possibly achieve that?" "You talk back constantly" "It's good." "We are the ones that talk..." "I like that" "Mom, stop being so dramatic You're making me uncomfortable" "Let's just stay the way we used to be" "My daughter's nagging gives me energy."

"Bastard..." "Why would I tell you about moving?" "What?" "No, don't wait for me there" "Stop being pathetic You've got kids to look after" "What?" "Cheon-ji's mom?" "Don't you dare mention my daughter's name" "Good night" "Night" "Why did she do it?" "Do you know anything about it?" "What are you doing?" "I had borrowed it from Cheon-ji" "When?" "Three months ago maybe" "Three months?" "She never asked for it back" "So, you didn't bother returning it?" "I thought she'd come get it if she needed it back" "So, she has to come to you to kindly ask for it back" "It was only a gym uniform" "Of course What about Cheon-ji who would've been terrified what you might do if she say no?" "Why the fuck did she have to kill herself?" "What?" "What did you say?" "Hwa-yeon gave it to me saying it would fit me" "Are you friends with Hwa-yeon?" "We got close after she invited me to her birthday party" " What about Cheon-ji?" " She's not my style" "She was best friends with Hwa-yeon" "But I only know Hwa-yeon not Cheon-ji" "I'm Cheon-ji's sister" "The scent is so thick" "Hi" "Can we have a word after school?" "Cheonji" "Hey" "Are you her sister?" "Yeah" "Hi!" "I'm Cheon-ji's friend, Hwa-yeon" "Hwa-yeon" "It's so great to finally meet you Why don't you buy me a pork cutlet?" "You don't have to" "You two are so different" "They say opposites attract" "I don't have enough for pork cutlet but..." "Can we get two rice cakes in chili sauce?" "Thank you" "Excuse me for a moment?" "I'm going" "I'm on my way" " Here's your rice cake" " Thank you" "Hwa-yeon" "What are you doing?" "I met Cheon-ji's sister" "I asked her to get pork cutlet but she's buying me rice cake instead" "So, what do you think?" "She's cute" "I felt bad about not buying you that pork cutlet" "Thank you" "I heard you and Cheon-ji were best friends You must be upset" "I've known her since elementary school but we weren't best friends" "I don't know what the girls said about the day she died but Cheon-ji seemed quite upset during the presentation" "What are the evils of prejudice?" "Especially when it is maliciously disseminated" "Let's look at some common ways in which prejudice can be fostered" "One, slander disguised as a compliment" "People react more sensitively to smaller points than the basis" "Example:" "'She always gets good grades but she's actually quite dumb'" "Basis, good grades, point, dumb" "Your cruel words can kill" "Are you a murderer in the making?" "Thank you" "What an interesting presentation!" "But 'a murdererin the making'?" "Don't you think you took too far?" "Should I have said a 'confirmed murderer' instead?" "I'm sorry, Cheon-ji I'm really sorry, okay?" "Let me go" "Cheon-ji, I'm sorry" "Why do you always apologize to her?" "What's the matter with her?" "It's not like you ever did anything to her" " What a self-absorbed bitch!" " Totally" "She was going through something terrible and I never knew it" "So, I told myself that I'll be a better friend for her" "I only asked you if you were upset and that's a pretty long answer" "I thought you might want to know" "Does everyone have MP3 players?" "Probably, although I can't be bother to carry mine around" "Why?" "Cheon-ji was asking for an MP3 player before she died" "I wondered if you knew anything about it" "We were going to exchange gifts for our birthdays" "Was it your birthday?" "Among close friends, we pick out the presents and give each other before the birthdays" "An early present... an MP3 player that you rarely use, no less?" "That doesn't seem right" "There are cheap ones, too For 20 dollars or less" "Stupid girl... troubled over an MP3 when there are cheaper ones, too" "Why aren't you eating?" "I am" "Are you close with Soo-gyeong?" "She's a delinquent She's a friend of a friend's but she seemed close with Cheon-ji They lend each other gym uniforms" "They used to lend each other gym uniforms?" "Well, yeah..." "I didn't know you moved to my neighborhood" "I saw you yesterday I thought you saw me, too" "I would've said hi if I did" "These apartments are so old, aren't they?" "I lived here all my life I'm so sick of this place but my parents won't go anywhere unless the restaurant shuts down" "Well, our black bean noodle is quite famous in this area" "You" "You can't stand the silence, can you?" "It makes you nervous" "So, this is what she meant" "I just didn't want to be rude since you treated me" "Cheon-ji said that you were cool" "You really are" "I think she once said that it's hard to talk to you" "Then again, I'm not sure" "There's nothing cool about being cool-headed about your sister's death" "But I guess it's okay to talk about it now" "I think I'll look for her suicide note" "I thought she didn't leave any note" "Why wouldn't she?" "I just haven't looked yet" "Maybe I'll start soon or not" "Declaration of Friendship" "Cheonji" "Are you still mad at me?" "I already told everyone that it was a joke" "Didn't I correct myself about" "Cheon-ji being bullied in elementary school?" "Are you still mad about that?" "No, I never heard that It's not about that" "Alright!" "I'm sorry anyway, okay?" "Come here" "Let's sign a Declaration of Friendship" "Sign here" "This certified that Lee Cheon-ji and Kim Hwa-yeon are best friends" "Hey, that MP3 player you're getting me for my birthday" "Give it to me to commemorate becoming best friends" "I'll give you the digital camera" "Mi-ran, tell me what your sister told you about Cheon-ji" "About Cheon-ji and Hwa-yeon" "Come and have a taste" "It's specially cooked in low temperature for extra flavor" "It's really good" "There's no additives or preservatives..." "Noodle, quickly" "With sauce?" " No, in soup" " Coming right up" "Give me a large one" " A large one" " Double portion" "The noodle's cooked just right" "What's the matter, 'Tofu'?" "I just buried my baby" "and I'm sitting here stuffing myself with an extra large noodle trying to live" "She's watching you from above Go on, eat" "This is Cheon-ji's stuff" "You live in the same building as her family?" "Her sister asked you to bring this over for her" "Okay" "It's true that we were best friends but she made me feel suffocating" "She would nitpick over every little thing" "Put the box in there" "I was the only friend she had" "Wasn't it because of you that she only had you?" "Look, I just felt bad about denying she was my best friend, that's all" "Don't try to provoke me You won't get anywhere" "Thanks for bringing it over" " Your youngest got over cold?" " Yes" "Hey, I know these are promotional give aways" " Thanks" " Sure" "What's he doing here?" "He's enjoying the free buffet" "I think he came to see you" "That pathetic asshole" "If I saved up every penny I spent on him..." "Who can I blame, but myself?" "Hello" "Oh, sorry" "Your hair..." "Can I get three blocks of tofu?" "Are you throwing a party?" "I'm making dumplings" "And, you need three blocks?" "I make a fridge load at a time and have them for meals" "If you're making dumplings get the cheaper ones over there These are pricy" "Oh... thank you" "Do you know him?" "He lives next door" "A man who makes his own dumplings" "Do you know what shampoo he uses?" "How would I know that?" "He has a beautiful silky hair" "Can you ask him for me?" "Should I get a transplant?" "Dear me..." "I'm sorry" "Can we have a word?" "Piss off before I call the security" "You want me to?" "I just want to talk Or I'll come everyday" "It'll only be a second" "I'm sorry for everything Let's start over" "You've done nothing wrong I just don't like you anymore" "No, come on Forgive me" " Let me go" " I won't" "For crying out loud!" "Jeez..." "I miss you so much that I can't do anything" "Get off of me" "What the heck?" "Have you lost your mind?" "Leave her alone" "What the hell?" "You crazy bastard..." "You crazy bitch!" "What's your problem, bitch?" "Stop it" "Bitch" "Here" "Come on" "Over here" "Don't ignore my calls, okay?" "I was about to strike back" "You were letting him beat you down all he wants" "I used to be bullied back in high school so, I learned boxing" "If you cover your face and torso, it really doesn't hurt" "Are you sure you're okay?" "Absolutely" "Can I touch your hair for a second?" "No?" "Oh, thank you" "That's her" "That girl in Class III died because of her" "Switching seats" "I can't believe we're doing this in middle school" "You said Cheon-ji's father killed himself" "When did say that?" "At your birthday party" "Did I?" "My sister is friends with Man-ji" "She asked me about you and Cheon-ji" "She hit the ceiling when I told her about the father's suicide" "She said he was killed in an accident" "I don't remember saying that..." "But it's true You said that" "You said that Cheon-ji is somber because of that" "Fine!" "Tell Man-ji everything" "I see so much of her everyday that I'm growing fond of her" "You moved to my school in fifth grade" "I always wanted to be friends with you" "Picking out your next target?" "That hurts" "I heard that your specialty was the new girls" "They warned me to be careful or I'll end up like Cheon-ji" "What nonsense!" "Cheon-ji and I were best friends" "Do friends do exactly as they're told?" "I asked her favors and she did them for me" "You call them favors?" "They were orders and coercion" "I'm the only one that actually hung out with her" "Did any of you even look at her?" "How convenient for you is it that she never fought back?" "How could you be so relentless about bullying her?" "I would've killed myself, too" "Wow, you're playing a hero?" "Whether you like it or not, I was her only friend" "Alright, so I didn't hang out with her but at least, I didn't manipulate her" "Do you have a conscience?" "To tell you the truth, Cheon-ji was hard to get close to but do you know what your nickname is?" "'Free wallet'" "You always buy things for us and pay for karaoke" "Popcorn's always on you when we go to the movies" "You didn't say a word when she was around" "Now I'm the only bitch?" "I'm gonna tell Man-ji that Cheon-ji was an outcast" "I have the conversation history of our group chat room as proof" "You're all accomplices" "That's mine" "Get out of here" " Cheon-ji is coming, too?" " Yeah" "Why do you care about her?" "I feel sorry for her" "Her father died when she was little Suicide, you know?" "Really?" "That's why she is so somber" "I think I heard that somewhere, too" "Let's refer to her as 'my sister'" "We don't want to upset her father's ghost" "Okay" "My mom doesn't like Cheon..." "I mean 'my sister' either" "She's smart and pretty but her family must be quite gloomy" "Let's all be nice to 'my sister,' okay?" "We don't pick on people for no reason I hate that" "You're right" "There you are Take a seat" "You're late" "Wasn't it three o'clock?" "I must have written '3' instead of '2' by mistake" "Sorry" "'My sister' must be upset" "Didn't she come at three last year, too?" " 'My sister' showed up late" " No more talks about 'my sister,' okay?" " 'My sister' showed up late" " No more talks about 'my sister,' okay?" "We're just talking about our sisters" "You have a sister, too What's she like?" "She's cool" "Order a black bean noodles for her" "Mom, can we get a black bean noodles?" "Where's my present?" "What did say you wanted?" "MP3 player" "I'm sorry I forgot" "I'm kidding!" "Who cares about presents?" "I was gonna get your present but this is just an early birthday party, right?" "I'll give it to you on your real birthday" "Thanks" "Here" "Thank you, Mrs. Kim" "We're all going to karaoke after this." "Are you coming?" "I have to study" "You have to study" "I did invite you, okay?" "You can't say I left you out later" "Look at her gobbling up that noodle" "How is Man-ji?" "What about her?" "It was Hwa-yeon" "Did something happen between you and Hwa-yeon?" "She picked on Cheon-ji all the time" "You didn't like Cheon-ji very much either" "She pretended not to know that she was being bullied" "I hated that more" "Don't say that about her" "Be honest." "You didn't want to be friends with Cheon-ji but then, she died" "You feel guilty." "So, you're blaming Hwa-yeon for everything" "Did you bully her, too?" "I was one of the nicer ones" "Everyone in your class just ignored her" "And you were one of them" "Only the wrong people end up dying!" "People like dad live while mom had to die" "The smell's killing me Bring me my ramen" "The fucking loser can't kick the ball" "It's right in front of you, idiot" "Stop smacking your mouth You're disgusting" "I can hear you, bitch" "Mi-ra needs to go to cram school" "They don't have teachers in middle school?" "Did you get the certificate?" "It's my goddamn business" "It's me" "Of course, I'm in" "The dumb ass loses every time and still wants in?" "Sorry I yelled at you" "It's okay" "I'm going Thanks for the ramen" "Pick up the damn phone, woman You wanna kill yourself, too?" "I know that woman" "What?" "The woman that dad is seeing" " Shall I pay a visit to your school?" " It's okay, uncle" "Don't tell mom, though" "I swear if it happens again..." "This is good" "What a handsome boy!" "Thank you" "These bullies pick on him during lunch hours and the ten-minute breaks" "And the school's solution is to install more surveillance cameras" "Have some fried tofu" "Thank you" "How polite you are!" "Here's some pocket money for you 50 dollars?" "That's too much" "It's okay You can take it" "Can I ask you a favor instead?" "Tell your mom about it" "Or I'll tell to her" "Are you going to cram school tonight?" "No" "Come round my place for dinner Your eyes have sunken" "We're both busy with housework Let's not bother with dinner invitations" "I'll pretend I had it" "We need to talk It's about our parents" "Supper's ready Come on, Mi-ra" "I can deal with no eggs inglass noodles but no fish cake in spicy rice cakes is just unacceptable" "It's good... try it" "I only eat fish cakes inspicy rice cakes" "It's good" "Never been treated as a guest before This feels great" "Now talk to me" "Isn't your mom seeing someone?" "She did He turns out to be a jerk" "I think she ended it" "That jerk was my dad" "I wasn't really curious but it was your dad, huh?" "You're not surprised?" "You gave all the hints" "My mom never knew about your mom He told her that he was widowed" "So, don't hate her so much" "Bastard..." "Why are you looking at me like that?" "You're so different from Cheon-ji" "How?" "Just... a lot" "Didn't Cheon-ji say anything about me?" "I didn't know she had a sister" "And I didn't know you were friends with my sister" "It's worse that hearing she said shit about me" "Did she know about our mom and dad?" "Hey!" "You alright?" "Cheon-ji doesn't know about my dad was too ashamed to tell her about him" "You okay?" "I wasted good food" "It's okay There's plenty" "I'm sorry in the middle of eating and it tastes really good without the fish cakes... but I gotta go" " Let me see you out" " No, it's okay" "There's this girl in my class who gets bullied" "I don't understand why" "There's always a reason" "You're so prickly and yet, you have so many friends" "I don't have many friends" "Don't you have a friend who talks behind your back?" "Don't be friends with someone like that" "What if she is the only friend you've got?" "Then, just stick to yourself" "Who would I hang out with then?" "Mom," "I think I was a terrible sister" "I was a terrible mom" "She reached out to me loud and clear" "But I just..." "Listen" "This is not what Cheon-ji wants" "But I have to know what tormented her" "I can't move on without the answer" "Lift your feet" "You're not going to school?" "Can I skip school?" "I have a stomachache" "Don't be silly Come on" "I forgot it was my friend's birthday Can I get 20 dollars?" "Oh, sure..." "You forgot!" "So, here's your money" "I wish I was my daughter, too" "I give you money for friends' birthdays and because you have to go somewhere" "It's just 20 dollars" "We need to talk about that girl What's her name..." "I heard she died" "I had a phone call from your cram school" "They said they can't keep you because you were bullying people" "Cram schools are business, too" "When they ask a paying customer to leave, it must be for a serious reason" "How come you're always on others' side?" "Aren't I your daughter?" "I'm on the side of whoever is right" "How can I take the side of a daughter who burns a hole in someone's heart?" "Hey" "Ungrateful brat 5:30pm, Queen's Karaoke I'm treating" "Shall we get this one together?" "Yeah, for the two of us" "For the first three to arrive!" "What are you doing here?" "I was asked to sit in for a few hours... hi!" "Can you hang out with me?" "Doing what?" "Just talk" "I don't see you with Cheon-ji these days" "She died..." "she killed herself" "What?" "How do you know her?" "So, it was true" "She's dead" "Cheon-ji..." "I'm asking you How do you know her name?" "I used to run into her from time to time at the library" "She liked to talk So, we talked about stuff or grabbed a bite to eat" "She hated to talk" "I guess she was different around you" "She said her sister's name was Man-ji" "And the girl who moved next door is called Man-ji" "They seemed very different yet, looked so much alike" "So, I wondered where Cheon-ji was" "Why did she do it?" "When was the last time you saw her?" "At the library." "She was preparing for her presentation assignment" "I forgot something I gotta go" "I wish there was a air freshener for the mind" "Cheer up, Lee Cheon-ji!" " Hello?" " It's Hwa-yeon" "There a guy next door with a long hair?" "Be careful" "He used to know Cheon-ji" "So what?" "I saw her with him when she came by my house" "I just said hello and didn't think much of it but apparently, they used to meet secretly at the library" "Is that another one of your plots?" "If that's how you want to see it" "I'm just telling you what happened" "Why are you telling me this now?" "I saw him today and he said 'Man-ji and Cheon-ji are sister, right?" "'" "I thought he was just a freak but there's something about him" "And I wasn't gonna say this but..." "They met the day before Cheon-ji killed herself" "May be she had a secret that she couldn't tell anyone" "Hello?" "Chu Sangbak" "Mom, do you think..." "What?" "We don't know if something horrible happened to Cheon-ji like assault..." "Are you talking about sexual crime?" "It didn't happen" "How can you be sure?" "What if she couldn't tell us?" "What if she was pregnant?" "She didn't even have period" "Oh... you're right but what if..." "What kind of supposition is that?" "Did you hear something?" "No, I just wondered" "If there was a man, I would know Mothers know" "It didn't happen to her Not to Cheon-ji" "What if something like that happened to me..." "What's wrong with your goddamn 'what if's'?" "If anything like that happened," "I would" "shred that bastard to pieces" "Loan record?" "I'm doing this for my sister and want to make sure there's no overlap" "I see..." "Please give me that" "Depression can be treated Psychology of depression..." "Sick child Overcoming depression..." " What are you doing here?" " Huh?" "Hi, Man-ji" "Did I scare you?" "Did you do something wrong?" "I was thinking about something" "So, you knew Cheon-ji?" "I heard..." "I'm sorry" "Why are you looking at me like that?" "You think my hair's funny, too?" "Are you crazy?" "I just uh..." "Cheon-ji used to nag at me to cut my hair but I never showed her this" "You can take a look for her" "What happened?" "There was a fire when I was little Goes all the way down the back" "My nickname was a monster" "I left school and started growing my hair" "I'm sorry" "So, you used to hang out with her What did you talk about?"

"We didn't pay attention when she was struggling" "They say you bury your child in your heart but I think you just put it all behind you" "What could I do?" "You can pour cement and smelting iron over it" "You still can't put it behind you" "You can never bury them because you feel sorry and because you can't forget" "Don't eat the damn eggs" "How can I help you?"

"They make great flowerpot holders" "I don't keep any plant in my apartment" "I'm sorry" "I'm worried about customers dropping out by the dozens" "Who's stealing the delivery plates?"

" She's upset because of you" "What did I do?" "Oh, forget it" "Did we have homework for this class?" "Why come all the way here to ask that?" "Wanna go to the restroom with me?" "No, Mi-so had to move because of you" "I'm sorry but I couldn't see the board" "It's always the dumb ones that complain about the board" "I can't take it anymore I should go home" " Talk to her for me?" " Yes, miss" "Okay" "That's my yarn, miss" "Don't knit during the class" "I wasn't I just had it out on the desk" "Is it a scarf?" "Just a wide plane" "Alright, you can go now" "So, you're just knitting a square shape?" "Did Miss Lee ask you to talk to me?" "No... to Miso" "I guess it's something the teachers can see" "But I don't want to She'll just snap at me" "So, your this class' Miss Congeniality?" "Only because I'm average in every aspect" "Not pretty, not bright, not rich..." "I liked your answer 'Just a square'?" "I keep knitting a wide plane until I feel it's enough" "Then I undo it" "Is this wide enough" "More or less" "Then, let's undo it Can I?" "What's this place?" "Just where the red wool led us" "You didn't know you had a smile" "I smile a lot" "Alright" "I love this place Can I come everyday?" "Of course" "Like this?" "Like this" "I'm telling the truth This time, she's really dead" "Go to hell" "No, you just had your punishment now that your wife's gone" "That's what I keep telling you She's really dead" "You're a lot bigger jerk than I thought" "Get out of my sight" "Hey" "I'm serious..." "You tormented mom until the day she died because of someone like this?" "Watch it" "This is what I deserve for dating a jerk?" "I'll let this one pass because I sympathize with how you feel" "Hey!" "How dare you?" "Don't be rude She'll be your step mom" "Wait!" "Cheon-ji's mom!" "Cheon-ji's... mom?" "Did you say that your mom worked in GS Mart?" "Yeah... why?" "Nothing" "I don't feel well from all the potato chips" "I think you're mom is dating someone" "I'm supportive" "Yeah, life must rosy for her when the daughter's like this" "What do you mean by that?" "Stop pretending you don't know" "What are talking about?" "Why ask me when you know damn well?" "By the way, it was Miss Lee's favor to talk to you, the biggest pathetic outcast of this class" "But I'm tired of it" "Is this the library?" "I was wondering if you had a ball of red yarn in lost and found" "I'll hold" "Were you out?" "It's heavy Give me a hand" "You don't?" "I see... thank you" "Cheon-ji's mom" "Get out of here before I call the police" "Who is he?" "Go inside" "You must be Man-ji" "What's going on?" " He's nobody." "Go inside" " Hi." "I'm the..." "I'm your mom's..." "Your mom's what?" "You obviously haven't seen my temper yet" "Stop talking to me like that" "Or what?" "You'll hit me?" "You wanna serve time for beating your wife, too?" "Don't try my temper" "Who the hell are you?" "I see you a lot, bitch..." "What are you a man or a woman?" "A man" "Walk away It's not your business" "Bring it on" "Don't" "Show me what you got" "What's wrong with you?" "Whoa!" "He's down Hit him some more" "Mom!" "I'm sorry..." "Are you okay?" "You bastard!" "Please, stop" "Mi-ran's father!" "What?" "Think about Mi-ran and Mi-ra if you have the energy for this" "How do you know Mi-ran and Mi-ra?" "Mi-ran's my best friend and Mi-ra was Cheon-ji's" "And I hate the idea of you becoming my stepdad" "She sure can speak her mind" "Man..." "I'm bleeding" "Your dad just stirred up trouble in my house" "It's not like that It's over between them" "Maybe that's a good idea" "Pack your bag and get out of there fast" "Tell them to come here bring their schoolbags and uniforms" "They say shit happens in life What you saw what that shit" "Are you okay?" "As you can see, I'm fine" "How did you end up seeing someone like that?" "You must have pretty low standards" "Just kidding" "This coffee's really good Is it Maxim?" "Shall I give you a trim?" "Maybe like this?" "What's the matter?" "Time for shampoo" "Here" "Thank you" "You haven't had a proper homemade meal in a while" "It's not much but it'll taste alright" "Does your dad come home often?" "He doesn't seem like the type to care" "You used to come to the store I work in" "I could tell you're used to grocery shopping" "You know, I faltered briefly thinking about you girls" "Shall I bite the bullet for the sake of the girls?" "But after Cheon-ji passed, I realized how silly I was" "I couldn't even look after my child" "They say all the wrong doings of the parents are passed down to their children" "I don't know how he treats you but he shouldn't have done that to me or to your mother" "He doesn't know what he's doing wrong" "We're doing fine on our own" "I know, I can see that now" "Your mother did a good job raising you" "Come on, eat up" "Mi-ra, don't take the trouble to go to other grocery store" "Ours is the best in this area" "You can't avoid or block out someone forever by trying" "And there is no need to forgive or love everyone" "Just let yourself feel what you feel" "What's wrong, sweetie?" "You seem like a lot better person than I thought, but my dad..." "She must be over whelmed by a proper home cooking" "Eat up Clean out your plate" "Mom" "Didn't you say you look at the face in a man?" "Yeah" "My dad's not exactly..." "You guys don't know That's the look that ruled the 80's" "What's this?" "Hwa-yeon, that crazy bitch" "Did Hwa-yeon give it to you?" "Yeah" "Can I have it?" "Whatever!" "This is so annoying" "Hey, what brings you here?" "Do you have the ball of yarn that I gave you earlier?" "It's probably still in my locker Why?" "This note was in the yarn ball that Cheon-ji gave Hwa-yeon" "You really can't be separated" "Where did you get this?" "It was in the yarn ball that Cheon-ji gave Hwa-yeon" "Do you know about this?" "Why do you have it, not Hwa-yeon?" "Where is she?" "She hasn't been coming to school much" "So, the yarn ball you gave me..." "Cheon-ji gave it to you?" "'A murderer in the making' That's a warning, isn't it?" "Hwa-yeon won't lift an eyebrow" "Wasn't it fun for all of you?" "Are you coming, too?" "Yeah" "Is there nothing you want to ask me?" "If I asked you why you bully me, you'll say you've never done that" "Did you bother to ask?" "For years, she wrote three o'clock on your invitation, but you always show up at three" "You play along when you know that 'my sister' is you" "You just pretended not to know That's what scares me" "You and Hwa-yeon both think that you can only keep friends by picking on someone" "Do it all you want" "I won't wince" "I'm different from Hwa-yeon I have reasons" "But Hwa-yeon, she won't realize until someone ends up dead" "Why do you always carry that color of yarn?" "You..." "What is it that you want to see?" "No." "Mi-ra should read it" "It was meant for her" "I'll just read it later" "I didn't know I really didn't know" "Open it" "Couldn't you keep some of the thing you said to yourself?" "Sometimes the words from your mouth cut deep into my heart but I'll forgive you because I remember the first time I saw you smile" "What did you do to her?" "Why'd you hit me?" "I've been good to her all along while everyone pretended as if she didn't exist" "But after I saw dad with her mom" "I couldn't forgive her" "Who does she think she is to forgive me?" "Are you crazy?" " Why drag dad into this?" " Shut up!" "Did you play her?" "It's not like that..." "I'm sorry" "Did you play her like a goddamn toy?" "Stop it, Man-ji" "Mi-ra was one of few who were nice to her" "Then, she got mad after seeing our parent together" "It was one fight How can anyone... die over it?" "I'm sorry..." "I know how you feel but if you have something to say to my sister talk to me Don't yell at her" "Let's go, Mi-ra" "You're so good, I hate you" "She's not going to college?" "She gave up college and wanted to move to a vocational class but after what happened to her sister, she changed her mind" "She says she wants to go to a good college" "With her grades, she can apply to any college of her choice" "I see" "If you look here..." "AAC" "AAB" "How beautiful you are" "Please don't die early" "You know the Chinese restaurant outside Chowon Apartments" "They got busted for using out of date flour" "I had food poisoning from eating there earlier" "Bosingak!" "The one right outside the building" "You came far" "What have you got there?" "It's ours" "Yours?" "Never mind It's from my parent's restaurant" "Yes." "So, these are from your restaurant" "Harassing your parent won't helps you release your anger" "You can only live by torturing someone?" "This is the only way we'll move After the restaurant shuts down" "Why are you doing this to me?" "Why?" "Why?" "Everyone else except you will know why, bitch!" "Why did you do it to Cheon-ji?" "Why did you all do it to her?" "You can kill yourself over nothing She was a freak all along" "Everyone says that about her Where could she go?" "How is she supposed to say how much she suffered how broken and torn she was" "I hate going to school" "I hate it so much that I'm gonna go crazy" "And Cheon-ji's not there anymore" "No one believe me when I say this" "No one!" "But I miss her, too" "I really miss her" "You, crazy bitch" "Let's go" "Man-ji" "Come on." "It's dangerous to be by yourself here" "I'm so sorry Forgive me" "Cheon-ji left this for you" "I'll forgive you before I go" "Because you'll still be here after I'm gone" "I wish you won't do it again" "I wish you won't suffer no more" "Don't manipulate people from now" "No matter what glittery things you have in your hands" "It's nothing to those who doesn't care about them" "And I will make sure that you don't wear out and follow my sister's path" "Not because I like you but because I can't let my sister take blames even after she died" "I start now until I find her last ball of yarn" "Let's go home" "I'm sorry for leaving early" "I'll eat well wherever I go" "So, promise me that you'll be strong or I'll be very sad" "I love you, mom" "I love you, too, Cheon-ji" "Were you waiting for me?" "I'm so tired Give me a piggyback ride?" "You will?" "Oh, I am so happy!" "You come to me" "You cold-hearted brat Wait!" "Stop" "Only because you're embarrassing me" "Don't push it, mom" "Come on" "It's awkward" "As you like" "Mom" "Cheon-ji was in my dream" "Was she smiling?" "The widest smile..." "We gave her a big hug" "She must be doing well" "My dear little sister, you've always been the sweetest sister" "I won't forget you no matter how far away you are" "I love you, sis" "I hope you're well and happy" "It was nothing after a while, isn't it?" "Thank you for pulling through it"
