The Burden

If at this time there is an earthquake that makes the ground split open, so that she falls into it ... Then that's what will happen to Ji An.

She was sure she heard the wrong thing. It can't be true. Looks like she forgot to clean her ears with a cotton bud this morning.

Ji An turned to her left, glared at Han Sung who was sitting still, waiting for the boy to say 'Surprise !! April mop!' with his nosy face.

"Ji An..."

She did not immediately turn to the voice that was calling. She noticed the stiff expression on Han Sung's face, Kim Yoo Goon's face who was still smiling kindly at her, then finally to her dad and mom who were staring sadly.

Does her face look sad too? Does Ji An look fragile right now? Not. She was devastated ... and angry.

"I thought you will leaving after graduation?" Ji An couldn't help but the sharp tone of her voice. "It's only been half the semester of our second year—"

"I think it would be better to go sooner, to adapt."
