MLLTM Chapter 8

Misunderstandings should be straightened out immediately from the beginning. One should strike the iron while it’s still hot!






“I really have nothing to do with Sibel! And you and I are already AFs!”








“...What?”







“We've already been best friends since childhood! Becoming Academy Friends? So you and I weren't best friends before that?







Lariensa hurriedly turned her head and retorted.







“We're best friends no matter what they say, and our relationship remains the same even in the academy! I am your friend and you are my most precious friend. Even if I get close to someone else, we will never be separated. Do you understand?”








Lariensa lowered her head slowly. I wondered if she was crying, so I took a closer look at her…







What, is she really crying?!







Lariensa’s ears became red as she lowered her head again.








“…This is driving me crazy.”








That Sibel guy has caused a serious misunderstanding between the two of us. It seemed to be counterproductive to raise my voice and explain strongly.







This can’t go on. I'll have to meet Sibel and clean this up myself.








“I'll find Sibel and talk to him personally, and then clean everything up.” 








I'll make Sibel clarify the rumors. Then Lariensa wouldn’t misunderstand things now.








“I'll be right back. Trust in me and wait.”








I patted Lariensa's head and dashed outside to find Sibel. 







Sibel, if I find you, I'll kill you! 







* * *







“What was that?”






“My heart just skipped a beat.”





“Lariensa, are you really crying?”









It wasn't until Marilyn was gone that Lariensa raised her head up. Her eyes were still moist, but her face was now sober from sorrow.







Lariensa put her hand on her chest. 








“Guys...”








Emily, Natalie, and Violet were not the only ones who were thrilled by Marilyn's courage. 








“I feel something tight on my chest…”








Lariensa, who experienced Marilyn’s resolve in person, was also taken aback.







* * *







Thump! Thump!







With a heavier sound than an elephant, 







Hmph! Hmph!







I was now exhaling like an angry rhino. No matter how much I think about it, I won’t be able to forgive that bastard.







How dare he draw tears from my Lara's eyes?! 







Although I wasn't the real Marilyn Launer, Lariensa, who doesn’t know of that fact, has always been nice to me. It was also because of her that I was able to adjust in this unfamiliar world.







I might be pretending to be Marilyn, but now that I'm in this body, I am Lariensa’s friend.







I didn't want to bother Lariensa and let her care about some trifling matters.







And I wanted to prevent her from being acquainted in Sibel at any cost.








“Hey, isn’t she the one from the rumors?” 








As I was passing by like an angry bull, I could hear some male students talking about me.








“I heard they are in some kind of relationship.”







“It must be a false rumor. If it’s real, then his taste must be so unique.”







“You know, that red-haired girl was always with a goddess.”







“Ah, that blonde-haired girl? What was her name again, Lariensa?”







“Doesn’t her name also sound pretty?”






I was going to ignore those guys who were giggling and chatting unpleasantly because there's something more important going on right now. 






However.








“That blonde girl is more suitable to be with Sibel rather than with that girl.”








Those words pressed a button in me. 







What?! Lariensa is suitable for Sibel? How dare you…! 








“Hey, you guys!”






I shouted loudly and glared at those guys. They were extremely flustered because they never thought that I’d call them out myself. Maybe because my current face also looks so aggressive right now.







I strode towards them, not hiding my anger.








“Watch your mouth! How dare you shove our Lara into that asshole?”








Shocked by my ferocious crumpled face, those guys stepped back. 







I just happen to be very angry right now, you know? And I'm glad I met you, you bastards! 








“Marilyn Launer.”








Before meeting Sibel, I was planning to vent my anger on them. 







However, should I say I'm lucky… or quite unfortunate?








“...Sibel”






I easily met Sibel without even trying to find him.






What a pleasant surprise.







The corners of my mouth curled up. Sibel, on the other hand, smiled ecstatically at me.







I can already tell by his smile that he is no longer even trying hard to pretend to me.







I also had no intention of hiding my hatred any more towards Sibel. From the moment he returned the coat that I threw away in the garbage back to me, my act was already over.








“I wanted to see you, and coincidentally, I bumped into you here.”








Maybe he was conscious of the people around him. However, he still continued his act and said misleading things out in the open.







Why the hell is he being like this?







If he’s being misunderstood like that, approaching Lariensa… would then be easier, wouldn’t it?!







Yeah, right. Why didn't I think of this?







I have a close-knit relationship with Lariensa, and maybe he is plotting to use this as an excuse to approach her. Misunderstandings can then be resolved later on…







Of course, it is. You wicked bastard! 








“Then, Marilyn.”








Sibel put his hand on my shoulder as if he were flaunting.








“Shall we move somewhere with just the two of us?”








It’s true that we needed a place to talk to each other, so I let him take me away first. But as soon as we moved to a quiet place, I shook his hand off my shoulder. 







Sibel just smiled and shrugged it away.








“The more I look at you, the more you look like an aggressive cat.”







“Don't say something weird. I don't want to look like an aggressive cat to you.”






“Then you shouldn't have stood out in my sight.”








Why don’t you say it directly? What caught your eye wasn’t me, but Lara.








“Why did you say it like that in front of other people?”





“Like what?”





“Don’t pretend. You made them misunderstand our relationship.”





“Oh, so it’s like that.”






How can such a pretty face be so abominable? 







I was filled with anger. You're the reason why I even yelled at Lariensa! And because of that, Lara cried…








“You're pettier than I thought. Are you being mean about me throwing away the coat, aren’t you?”








I know you want to approach me because of Lariensa, but you must be bothered because I threw the coat out. This guy’s got a lot of pride. 








“I was about to throw that coat anyway. I didn't throw it away because of you. So why don't you just quit this whole harassment thing?”







“There must be some kind of misunderstanding.”







“Misunderstanding?”






“I've said it before, I just wanted to be friends with you.”







“With me? Why?”









Because of Lara?





I tried hard to push back those words back to my throat. As much as possible, I don’t want to mention Lariensa in front of him.







Sibel tilted his head to the side as he raised his chin with his fingers. 








“You’re interesting.”







“Me?”






“I guess everyone likes me. Of course, that’s a given.”







“……”








“I'm the most ideal kind of person that any person could ever want.”








I listened to Sibel quietly. He showed himself in front of me like a prize, with his hands spread out on both sides. 









“I am handsome and kind. The work of the head and body are all excellent.”







“……”







“Who wouldn't want a guy like me?”








Wow... It's so annoying to hear it myself. 







All the more because he says it with confidence and it's hard to deny the reality…








“But you were different. You hated me from the beginning.”








At first, I tried to hide it, but apparently, I couldn't fool Sibel, who is so quick-witted. 







I gulped down.








“But then why? There’s no reason for you to hate me.”







That's how it looks like to people who don't really know who you are. I've read the novel, and I know very well what a piece of crap you are. 








“I'm curious about your reason, but you probably won't tell me.”







“Then, will you stop if I tell you?”







“Well, that depends.”





“Harassing me by making people misunderstand, what a childish thing to do.”







“What do you mean harass? We’re just jesting together, right?”







“Hey! This Si-ibel.”
[T/N: She was about to curse (씨발), but then hesitated and just half-assed his name (시벨). So it became shitty-bel (씨벨).]






“Don’t call my name like that. It sounds strangely offensive.”








Sibel came closer to me. He brushed my hair behind my ear and said something before stepping back.








“We shared warmth-”








Sibel knew that he had the capacity to manipulate the situation in his favor, and it was now too late to continue feigning ignorance of his existence.







Without stopping, Sibel pulled my uniform jacket like he was grabbing me by the collar.








“You've got wrinkles on your clothes.”








…Honestly, I was a little scared. I know the kind of trash this guy is, so I can’t help but be wary of him.








Now, I’m trying to overcome my fear with the determination to protect Lariensa! 








“Don’t bother telling me why you hate me.”






“……”





“Sooner or later, I’ll find it out myself.”








Liar. You just need a reason to approach Lariensa, don't you?








“I’ll see you later then, Marin.”








Sibel, who smoothen my coat out, patted me on the shoulder once again and finally went away.








Argh! I can't throw away this jacket because it’s my uniform, and now I have to wash it thoroughly again. I rubbed the ear where his hands touched and immediately took off my jacket. 








I didn't think it would be easy to protect Lariensa, but… it’s getting more difficult by the minute.








Ah, I just want to straighten out the rumors with him, but… 







“I am so done!”







Argh!





A silent cry echoed inside of me. 







* * *







As I entered the dormitory feeling a little low, someone welcomed me. 








“Marin!”








It was the baby bird of the dormitory, Lariensa. 







And behind her were Emily, Natalie, and Violet together. 







Dealing with Sibel was exhausting as hell, that’s why seeing my friends worry about me was a sight for sore eyes.







Yeah! Even if he was playing tricks with me, he wouldn't have seen the last of me just yet! 








“I… have something to tell to Marilyn!”








Unlike before, Lariensa looked a little better. Her red ears from before weighed a lot on my mind, but fortunately, my friends seemed to cheer her up. 








“You know, I'm sorry I shouted at you.” 








Before Lariensa brought it up, I apologized first for what I did.








“No. I was mad at Marin first. I was the one who’s wrong. And…”








Lariensa mumbled and looked at her friends. Emily then rushed out and whispered something to her ear. 








“I believe in what Marin says. Even if Marin is in a relationship, Marin’s boyfriend can't keep us apart! So I'm not jealous of that guy named Sibel. I just wish you'd told us first. But I still understand!"








When Emily stepped down, Natalie then came out this time and whispered to Lariensa. 








“Friends and lovers are separated. No, it's completely separated! I will always cheer for Marin. But how did you get into that relationship with Sibel? 


……Natalie!”








Natalie seemed to have brought out what she was curious about through Lariensa. She became nervous. Natalie winked it away as a joke and stepped back.







Finally, when Violet put her mouth into Lariensa's ear, she continued to speak again. 








“Dating is good. But please don't neglect your studies and friends. If you’re the ‘friend of the top student’, your average grade should be...


 ……Violet!”








Violet stepped back haughtily while putting her hair behind her shoulders. The avatar, Lariensa stood in her place with an awkward expression.
