The moment I smelled the bitter scent so strong that my brows furrowed, my eyes opened.
What is this smell…?
“Ugh… my head hurts…”
I struggled to lift my upper body. As I looked around, my body stiffened.
Where… am I?
I was sure I had died. I had attempted a perfect suicide.
So how am I waking up in perfect condition, without a single wound?
Something is off.
Feeling uneasy, I pushed away the blanket and walked toward the mirror in front of me.
The reflection staring back at me made me speechless.
“…What the…?”
It wasn’t my face. It was someone I had never seen before.
Thinking it might be a dream, I pinched my cheek, but all I felt was pain.
Nothing changed.
Knock, knock—
“Are you awake?”
“…?”
The person standing before me was also a stranger.
They were clearly older than me, yet they bowed respectfully as they greeted me.
“The scent is too strong. You should burn it more moderately.”
Smoke was rising from the corner of the room.
With the window shut, it was natural for the scent to be thick. But what is that?
The unknown person naturally extinguished the smoke.
Then, after glancing at me in silence for a moment, they continued speaking.
“It’s time for school. I’ve prepared your bath.”
They looked toward the door inside the room—probably the bathroom.
Am I the only one finding this situation strange?
Someone, please explain what’s going on!
I couldn’t say a word as I washed up.
Afterward, I saw the uniform laid out on my bed and had to check if this was really what people wore.
“This is… a school uniform?”
My confusion was brief.
The real shock came from the state of the uniform. It was tight and short—
the kind I imagined girls who hung out with the delinquents would wear.
“Young Miss, are you ready?”
“Wait… just a minute!”
Panicked, I quickly put on the uniform.
I kept pulling down the skirt that refused to go any lower before opening the door.
“…The car is waiting.”
The way they looked at me was strange.
I hadn’t done anything, yet they seemed tense—almost afraid of me.
I got into the car awkwardly.
How am I going to school when I don’t even know what’s happening?
It feels like I switched souls with someone…
Wait.
Did I really swap souls?
The only explanation that made sense was that my spirit had entered someone else’s body after my suicide attempt.
Otherwise, there’s no way I’d be here like this.
My head was filled with endless thoughts as we drove to school.
This isn’t a novel or a drama. Could something like this actually happen in real life?
Before I could figure it out, the car arrived at school.
“Please have a good day.”
The driver opened the door for me.
I tried to shake off my awkwardness.
Who the hell did I possess?
The clothes alone looked outrageously expensive.
“But which class am I in…? Ah, damn.”
The driver had already disappeared.
How am I supposed to survive school without knowing anything!?
As I stepped inside, I immediately felt the students’ gazes.
It was uncomfortable, to say the least.
The stares weren’t pleasant, yet whenever our eyes met, they quickly turned away and scurried off.
Who was this body’s original owner?
Slide—
I let my body guide me into a random classroom.
The once-noisy room fell silent.
It wasn’t hard to find my seat.
The luxury perfume and accessories sitting on top of the desk made it obvious.
As soon as I sat down, a voice called my name—filled with anger.
"Han Suji. I told you that if you pulled another stunt, I’d kill you.”
Han Suji.
So that’s this body’s name.
But who is this guy?
And why does a high school student have such a murderous glare?
“….”
“You really have a death wish, huh? You’re not even saying anything.”
I had no idea how to respond.
What’s with this guy? Talking about killing me out of nowhere.
It only made me more annoyed.
“Then kill me.”
“…What?”
His eyebrows twitched.
As I said, I had attempted suicide.
I had already abandoned my life.
If dying here could free me from this ridiculous situation, it would be a win for me.
“You said you’d kill me. Do it.”
As I spoke indifferently, his anger only seemed to grow.
“What kind of act is this now?”
“There’s no act.”
“Tch. I bet you’re just trying to get attention with another one of your gimmicks.”
“…Think whatever you want.”
I truly didn’t care.
I had no idea what grudge this girl had against him,
but that wasn’t my problem.
All I wanted was to get out of here.
Also, this uniform was really uncomfortable.
"Just don’t mess with the company.”
“…Uh, sure.”
I had no idea what he meant, but I answered anyway.
As he walked away, he suddenly turned back and said:
“And get rid of that disgusting uniform.”
“…?”
What the hell is going on?
