Episode 082: Last SAT (1)

widely-

The taxi door was closed.

“welcome! Where are you going?”

The taxi driver who was sitting in the driver’s seat looked back at Lee Arin and asked.

He was an elderly man with half-white hair and fine wrinkles around his eyes.

Arin slowly opened her mouth as she looked at him reminiscent of the head of the Hermit Crab Academy.

“Please go to Gauri High School.”

It was morning, so Irene’s voice was very split. She covered her mouth, startled by the sound of her voice coming out of her throat.

But the half-white driver just smiles and starts driving.

“Oh Gauri? all right.”

The taxi slowly started going down the road.

There was a foggy mist on the car window, and the flickering traffic lights looked dim.

A few stops and a few starts.

Arin’s body, pushed by her inertia, was buried deep in the car seat.

[···Today, the office hours of public offices and businesses in the region where the 2019 college scholastic ability test is being held and the school start time will be delayed by about an hour to 10:00 am. In addition···]

In her ears, she heard a radio broadcast announcing that today is the entrance exam.

It’s already the 4th morning of the SAT.

Arin thought, “I wish I could fall asleep like this.”

It’s already the 4th time I’ve seen it, but I’m still not used to it.

It was because the words she heard in the morning put her condition down.

‘Keep in mind. Until this year. because this year is the last If you fall this time, stop fooling around and do as your father tells you.’

A voice as cold as olivine.

Her hands and feet began to tremble again when she remembered her hard father’s face.

It was said that he thought it was encouragement to others, but it seemed that only the father himself did not know that such encouragement was rather poisonous.

But then.

The taxi driver who was driving quietly opened her mouth.

“Are you a student?”

It was a sudden question.

But strangely, the moment the taxi driver spoke, her trembling stopped like a lie.

She looked down at her own hands and feet with her puzzled eyes.

Then she recalled the taxi driver’s question and slowly opened her mouth.

“···no. I am not a student.”

It was a sad voice.

Because her student days already ended 4 years ago.

Now she wasn’t even a student, but she was just pretending to be a student.

Erin’s expression suddenly darkened.

“Oh, I’m sorry. He looked so young that I thought he was a student again. Why is it that today is the SAT, so students go to take the exam at this time?”

The taxi driver who misunderstood her expression said with a bewildered look on her face.

At the same time, she said, ‘I must have mistaken it for today’s SAT,’ and ‘I don’t know the age of young people these days.’

But she said nothing.

The air in the taxi became awkward.

But after a while.

“…you’re going to take the exam right…”

Ia Lin, who had her head bowed, said in a low voice.The taxi driver heard the sound and opened his mouth.

“Oh yeah? Oh my, isn’t this supposed to go quickly then? Isn’t it late?”

She then looked at her time and told her that she was not late and that if she was late, she would speed up her pace.

It was a kindness rarely seen in recent times.

But it’s still 7 o’clock.

Check-in time was at 8:10, so there was no need to speed further.

Ia Lin shook her head and opened her mouth.

“I still have plenty of time. You can go slowly.”

Hearing her words, the taxi driver moved the steering wheel with a more relaxed expression.

Arin looked out of her car window.

Then, in the distance, she saw her high school where she would take her exams.

‘Gauri High School.’

Coincidentally, it was the place where Ia Lin took her SAT when she was in her 3rd year of high school.

‘It’s been 4 years…’

Her memories of her last four years flashed through her mind.

The excitement of seeing her for the first time and the expectation of seeing her second time.

Her hopes and frustrations when she saw her third entrance exam came to her in an instant.

Then she started shaking her body again.

Her high school look overlapped her father’s face.

She couldn’t afford to go back in there.

I wanted to run away to another place right now.

But at that moment.

“excuse me···”

The taxi driver’s voice was heard.

Her body, which had been shaking so violently that she could hear the sound of her teeth clashing, stopped like a lie.

“Yes?”

When Ia Lin asked with her blank expression, the taxi driver opened her mouth with a kind face.

“Have you arrived?”

Hearing her taxi driver’s words, she looked around her.

Then she soon began to rummage through her wallet.

OK.

“Oh, you can’t. What on a day like today?”

Her taxi driver stopped her by waving her hand.

Ia Rin, who had just pulled a card out of her wallet, looked at her taxi driver with a trembling expression.

“Yes? No, still…”

She shook her head and handed the card to her taxi driver.

But her taxi driver only looked at her and shook her head.

“Think of it as just a substitute for chocolate, and do well on your exams.”

Then she pointed to her watch as if to go.

7:30 p.m.

There was also time to walk to school, so I didn’t have much time.

She put her card in her wallet with a look of helplessness.

“thank you. I will do well on the exam.”

Then she said goodbye to the taxi driver and got out of the car.

But then.

“cheer up. This year, you will be able to go to the university you want. go for it!”

The taxi driver’s voice was heard.

She felt her eyes heat up.

She was warmer because it was an unexpected support.

She said that the encouragement of someone she had never met is more powerful than the encouragement of her family. It’s an ironic moment.

She looked at the back of the taxi that had left for a moment, then turned her body.

She then began to move slowly towards the gate.

Then, immediately, a loud noise was heard.

The sound of knocking kwaenggwa or janggu.

the sound of calling someone’s name.

Occasional applause.

Things like car horns got louder as she got closer to the school gate.

“Phew.”

She let out a deep sigh.

Thanks to the cheers of the taxi driver, she felt a little better and her mood subsided again.

It was because she already knew what the landscape would be like in front of the school gate through her many years of experience.

‘It’s probably full of people.’

just as expected.

Let her approach the school gate.

Male students waving long placards.

Schoolgirls handing out chocolates.

Even the teachers holding a thermos and recommending coffee to people.

Various people who came to support the students caught her eye.

Then her steps slowed down.

For some reason, the moment I saw them, I did not have the courage to pass in front of them.

In fact, until a few years ago, there were people who supported her like them.

However, as Lee Arin’s fortunes grew longer year after year, the number of people around her gradually decreased.

She didn’t want to blame them.

‘It must have been my fault for staying still.’

While she struggled to walk in her place, they looked at her from afar, and went away from her sight.

She bowed her head.

Standing still is the age of sinners. She had been wearing the clothes of a criminal for the past four years and could not raise her head proudly.

The students rushed to the school gate were going to enter the school to some extent and then go in.

But then.

“What are you doing here?”

A familiar voice was heard.

Surprised, Ia Lin raised her head and there.

Jun-young with a soft smile.

“Arin unnie fighting!”

Yuna holding a placard she made herself.

“Did you eat breakfast?”

Eunsol, who held out her warm cocoa, looked at her and smiled.

“Teacher, how did you get here?”

When Arin, who was bewildered by the unexpected situation, asked with a surprised expression, Junyoung smiled and opened her mouth.

“How did you come? Because the disciple has an important test. I got in the car early in the morning.”

He then handed out two large and small boxes to Arin.

Arin took the boxes that Junyoung had offered her in a haphazard manner.“Because it’s a lunch box and chocolate. Don’t go hungry just because you’re nervous, make sure you eat it. The test is a battle of stamina, okay?”

Junyoung said.

Munchle-

In an instant, she felt something of her pulsating in her chest.

She believed and followed Joon-young all this time, but she didn’t know that she would do it this far.

Arin looked at Junyoung with a new and complicated look.

“thank you···”

Both her eyes were dyed red.

Within.

Jun-young, who looked at Arin like that, said with a smile.

“Then don’t be afraid and come take a good look.”

“Arin unnie fighting!”

“Arin-ah, take a look!”

Arin Lee entered her school gate, listening to the voices of people cheering for her.

When she lifted her head, a clear sky without a single cloud spread out before her eyes.

“You all know that if you are caught cheating, you will be asked to leave immediately, right? I can’t go anywhere after 5 minutes. If anyone needs to go to the bathroom, please do so now.”

Before the supervisor could finish speaking, four or five students got up and left the classroom.

The atmosphere in the suffocatingly quiet classroom became slightly chaotic.

and after a while.

The moment the students who went to the bathroom return to the classroom and sit down.

Ding dong ding dong-

[Then let’s start the 2019 college scholastic ability test from now on. Supervisors in the classroom…]

An announcement came from the speaker announcing the preparation for the exam.

The faces of the students, who had been slightly relaxed, hardened.

The supervisors who had entered the classroom closed the classroom doors and began preparing to distribute the test papers.

“Now then, I will hand out the test papers. If anyone reads it before it airs, it will be considered cheating and you will be asked to leave immediately. Please be careful.”

After finishing the exam papers, the supervisor stood at the desk and told the students.

Then the students looked at the supervisors with nervous faces.

“Everyone, put your hands above your head.”

As the supervisor spoke, the examinees raised their hands above their heads.

And soon the supervisors started distributing test papers to and from the classroom.

wear-

Her test paper was also placed in front of Arin, who was rubbing her fingers with her hand on her head.

Arin slowly looked down at her exam paper placed in front of her.

It was already the fourth time I took the CSAT, but I didn’t get used to it.

No, far from getting used to her, she seemed to be getting more and more tense as the years went by.

[…Then please start the test now.]

An announcement came from the speaker announcing the start of the test.
