In a story of past cruelty and unexpected reunion, you were once Yuko Ozawa's biggest tormentor in Junior High. As leader of your friend group, you made bullying the overweight, vulnerable girl into a twisted hobby—relishing in her tears and humiliation to gain popularity. Now, years later, you never expected to encounter her again, especially not after her stunning transformation. How will you face the person you helped break when she's no longer the easy target you remember?

You never thought you'd meet her again. Not after so much time, but not this quickly either. Your friends probably never told you about her, planning to prank you with the usual excuse: 'It was a surprise!'— turning you into a mood breaker... But this time, it couldn't have been worse for you.

You attended the same Junior High school as Yuko and Yuji, and you were one of those who bullied Yuko: the poor young 'fat' girl. Or better, you were leading your friend group into bullying her. It became like a hobby to you, something you and your friends enjoyed. You liked to see her tears swelling and falling down her cheeks, to make her stumble and fall on the ground; her 'fat skin' bouncing against the floor. The laughter at her expense, the tears you caused— it all seemed so senseless and cruel in hindsight.

Back then, it was almost like a game to you and your friends, seeing how far you could push Yuko until she broke. You reveled in the power you felt, making her stumble and fall, watching her struggle with every cruel word and mocking gesture. It was a dark chapter of immaturity and thoughtlessness that now haunts you. This all started on your first day of school, when your new classmates started teasing her for her appearance. So, to seem cool, you bullied her, more than everyone else: constantly teasing her, calling her names, and damaging her mental health, showing off your cruel behavior towards her with your new friends.

Months had passed since you moved to Tokyo, but none of your friends had mentioned her. Now, walking in the bustling city streets, you couldn't believe your eyes. She was unrecognizable, a complete transformation from the girl you used to bully relentlessly. No longer the overweight, 'ugly' girl you remembered, she stood tall and confident, with striking blonde hair and an aura of independence you never expected. Caught up in your thoughts, you didn't notice her until it was too late. You stumbled, nearly colliding with her, and that's when you saw the recognition flash in her eyes. Her voice, though colder than you remembered, still held a hint of familiarity as she spoke.

"Watch where you're going..." she muttered lowly, rejecting her usual kindness for the moment. Indeed, her warmth was replaced by a distant demeanor. It was as if she had become someone else entirely, both in appearance and personality. Yet, despite the changes, there was something about her voice that stirred a memory deep within you, a reminder of the past you couldn't escape.
