Lee Jinhee groaned when she felt the blinding light hit her eyes mercilessly, as she opened them. Stabbing ache went through her body, and a sharp pain stabbed her forehead.

"Are you alright?" She heard a familiar voice ask.

Blinking multiples of time, Jinhee adjusted her vision. The scent of disinfectants wafted into her nostrils, and the walls around her was painted white. Judging by the decor around her, Jinhee could deduce that currently she was at one of the VIP patients' room.

An IV drip was connected with her hand, and a bandage was wrapped around her forehead. A sharp pain went through her spine as Jinhee attempted to straighten her back up, and her face tilted to get a look at the female beside her.

Jinhee's eyes widened, and her complexion grew paler. Anger rose within Jinhee when she saw worry painted on to the female's face, and she found herself claiming the expression to be fake. Nonetheless, this entire situation bought a feeling of déjà vu to her.

'Han Taehee.'

The white shirt, navy blue tie, and the matching skirt was perfectly worn by her, and her long brown hair was tied into a ponytail. Perfectly shaped face, straight nose and thin rosy lips of hers were the features envied by many.

Her figure of around 5'7 elegantly sat at the chair, and despite the unusually tall height at the age of 17, she was able to beat all the females in terms of gracefulness and appearance. Nonetheless, mostly both females and males alike felt admiration towards her.

However, Jinhee was appalled by the female.

Staring at the female in front of her bought back all the negative emotions within her, as she recalled the betrayal. The entire thing remained vivid to her.

Due of Taehee winning the first place in their university exams, Jinhee was excited to be the first one to wish her, and when she visited their shared apartment after University, Jinhee was greeted with the scene of Taehee kissing her boyfriend, Kim Jaehyun.

Heartbroken, Jinhee ran out of her apartment, not paying heeds to shouts of Jaehyun and Taehee, and in the moment of impulse, she was run down by a truck. But it seems that she wasn't dead and bought to the hospital in time.

Now that Jinhee thinks about it, there were countless number of times Taehee tried to separate both her and Jaehyun, and interfered when the two of them were hanging out alone.

Recently, Jinhee noticed Taehee distancing from her and getting along with those who was fond of creating trouble for Jinhee. Lots of gossips went around about Jinhee, and she was mocked for being left by Taehee in the entire campus.

Nevertheless, Jinhee paid no heed into it for she believed in her and Taehee's friendship strongly until she saw that kiss. That was enough to shatter Jinhee's heart and lose her trust in two beloved person of hers. Regret filled her regarding how she led her life.

Taehee was always the brighter star, and Jaehyun, with his excellent talent, was a perfect match for her. In others' eyes, Jinhee was the third wheel between them both, and the thought of that tightened Jinhee's chest.

Seeing that Jinhee was lost in her thoughts, Taehee again asked, "Are you alright?"

Snapping out, Jinhee felt disgust arise within her, and harshly, she questioned, "What are you doing here?"

Surprise flashed across Taehee's face as she heard Jinhee's words, and she voiced out, "I wanted to thank you for saving me."

Confusion floated on Jinhee's face, as she took in Taehee's sentence. Saved her? She couldn't recall doing so, and it was strange to her how Taehee was wearing the school uniform.

Jinhee's eyes then fell upon the beige calendar hung on the white wall, and her eyes grew wider in surprise. The year read 2017, and VIP rooms in the hospitals were handled with utmost care. Therefore, there would be no mistake with the date.

The entire scene reminded Jinhee of the first she met Taehee. The stairs down to the third floor was wet, and Taehee was about to go down them. About to warn Taehee on the stair, Jinhee lost her footing and slipped, falling down miserably.

Taehee took the opportunity to visit Jinhee at the hospital couple of times in her last life. Having heard the rumours and after seeing her actions in real life, Jinhee admired the female. Trying her best to maintain a friendship with Taehee, Jinhee let go of her pride and chased after her shamelessly.

Internally, Jinhee now scoffed at herself for being pathetic.

Nodding to Taehee, Jinhee had no idea on how to reply. As much as she wanted to yell at Taehee to get out, the situation appeared too strange, and Taehee seemed to be more reserved than usual.

"Are you a freshman at Starlight Highschool?"

Astoundment became more evident on Jinhee's face.

'What type of sick joke is this!?'
