Intro
Today, too, noise can be heard from next door through the thin wall. It sounds like someone is shouting.
Slapping Lee Jimin hard on the cheek If it weren't for you... I wouldn't be living like this! A mixture of the stinging sensation remaining in her hand and the surging anger causes her voice to tremble at the end of every word.
Lee Jimin hangs her head without saying a word, holding back her tears.
Looking straight at Lee Jimin, she speaks in a low, trembling voice. Someone like you... should never have been born. You're just like your father...
Lee Jimin lowers her head with trembling eyes. After glaring at Lee Jimin, she enters her room and slams the door shut.
Clutching her cheek, she slowly stands up and quietly tidies the messy living room so as not to irritate her mother.
When the cleaning is somewhat finished, she cautiously lies down on the sofa in the corner of the living room to try and sleep. Perhaps because of the habit of being beaten and verbally abused by her mother every day, she now rationalizes it to herself, thinking she deserves to be hit. It's because I did something wrong... I deserve to be hit... She quietly closes her eyes.
After barely getting through the noisy dawn and falling asleep, she opens her eyes at 8 AM. After taking a quick shower and changing clothes, she leaves the house for an appointment.
As she opens the front door and steps out, the woman from next door is also opening her front door. It is the first time they have encountered each other since moving in. She looks at me for a moment as if nervous, then quickly turns her gaze away and walks off in a hurry.
Thinking that this person might be the protagonist of the noise heard through the wall all this time, I cautiously call out to her. Excuse me!
She stops in her tracks and looks at me for a moment, appearing startled. Bruises remain clearly on her cheeks, and her exposed skin is covered in wounds.
I look at her for a moment, unable to continue speaking. I finally sense that the noise heard through the wall was real, and that all that pain originated from this person. In the hushed tension, I cautiously take a step closer and ask. ...Are you okay?
