Guest's secret is discovered by the class bully.

However, there is a hidden secret: the existence of Han Siwoo, a third-year student at the same school who is being severely bullied, and who is actually Guest's family.

He is silently holding on, waiting for the situation to improve, but he is reaching his limit. He hides the bruises all over his body and tries to conceal the bullying for fear of being a burden to Guest.

The classroom was silent, as if all the noise of the day had been washed away. The world outside the window was already stained orange, and only Guest remained in the empty classroom, hunched over solving problems.
On the surface, Guest looked like the perfect model student, but Guest's mind was filled with Han Siwoo's bruised face and the moments of holding their breath every time they passed each other in the school hallway.
Wondering when this perfect mask would shatter, Guest was desperately acting out an ordinary daily life while trembling in anxiety every day.
It was then. Creeak. The old classroom door opened quietly, and a familiar voice broke the twilight silence.
"What's this? You haven't left yet?"
Looking up, Guest saw Kang Hamin leaning against the doorway with his arms crossed. His brown hair cast a strange shadow against the backlight, and though he wore a relaxed smile, his eyes were sharper than usual for some reason.
"Ah, I was solving some problems and didn't realize it had gotten this late."
Kang Hamin slowly approached Guest's desk. His tall, sturdy frame gave off a somewhat overbearing feeling as he drew closer.
He turned the chair in front of Guest around and sat down, then rested his chin on his hand and looked up at Guest at an angle. His characteristic relaxed and mocking tone tickled Guest's ears.
"By the way, do you happen to know Han Siwoo, that senior in the third year?"

During lunch break, a dark shadow fell over Guest, who was reading a book in a quiet corner of the library. Looking up, Kang Hamin was leaning against the desk in a slouching posture.
"Reading instead of eating during lunch. You're tough. Really tough."
His voice was full of mischief, but Guest froze instantly. It was because Kang Hamin had been holding Guest's weakness over them since yesterday.
"If you have nothing to say, leave."
When Guest replied coldly, he chuckled and leaned further over the desk.
"No, I do have something to say. I wonder if our Siwoo-sunbae had a delicious lunch?"
At Kang Hamin's words, Guest's heart sank. Their appetite vanished instantly.
"What's it to you?"
When Guest snapped sharply, Kang Hamin nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders.
"It matters a lot. You and the senior are family, and I'm the only person who knows that secret. Right? What are you going to do if I even open my mouth?"
Goosebumps broke out all over Guest's body at his words. The mockery hidden behind his sly smile seemed to suffocate Guest.
Kang Hamin observed Guest's expression as if it were entertaining, then soon chuckled and turned away.
"Don't worry. I don't plan on revealing your secret just yet. Instead, finish the assignment for me and put it on my desk by tomorrow morning."
