Flashback

Jeongyeon had a fight with Momo again regarding how the room is structure not to her liking, how Momo's stuff is everywhere, but in reality, there wasn't much of anything, Jeongyeon was just being an ass to Momo, hoping Momo would get fed up with them fighting and just leave for good. But Momo being Momo, ALWAYS keep fighting back to Jeongyeon. So when Momo went to the dance academy, Jeongyeon rummaged through Momo's stuff to get back at her for 'cleaning' her legos. Jeongyeon admits Momo did clean up her lego display, it looked better than it originally was but Jeongyeon is spiteful. When Jeongyeon was 'cleaning' out Momo's closet she found a bigger treasure, Momo's personal diary. Jeongyeon remembers Chaeyoung having a Japanese friend named Sana, she messaged Chaeyoung and asked her to forward them to Sana to translate. A few days later she got a reply back with the translation, without Momo suspecting a thing.

The incident at the cafeteria with Momo tripping boiled Jeongyeon's blood to no end. After checking up on Momo at the bathroom and her pushing Jeongyeon away, Jeongyeon ends up on the rooftop trying to cool her head. She finally opens up to read Sana's translation. Chaeyoung told her after she sent the message to read it for herself and reconsider Momo's situation with 'The Geochin'. Chaeyoung even said Sana cried to herself when she read it.

Jeongyeon read the entries:

'February 16 ... I got bullied again ... Riko make me clean her shoes. I know she purposely smeared dirt and muddied her shoes just for me. How can someone be so cruel? ... I can't tell mum about this, she's working hard for me to be here ... she'll be sad if I did and I don't want her to be ...'

'November 3 ... turning one year older isn't too eventful from the start, but Hoshi promised to take me out for dinner ... he missed out the part where he decided to fool around behind my back ... I saw him kissing Riko ... I thought he loved me, I love him, I trusted him ... I guess I'm a fool in love. I can't do this! He was my light, my world ... I guess it's crumbling to the ground ... Papa's gone, I miss you, I want to see you so badly ... maybe tonight I will ... maybe ...'

Jeongyeon looks away thinking Momo wants to end her life is heartbreaking. A tear fell on the concrete ground, if Momo did end it there, they wouldn't have ever met. Jeongyeon never thought she would cry for someone other than her mother. But she did, she did for a girl whom she barely knew.

Jeongyeon calmed down and continues to read:

'February 4 ... I finally met mum's soon-to-be fiance, Chanyoung, he's Korean and very handsome ... mum said she's falling back in love, I can see it in her eyes and same goes for him ... I'm so happy for her, I know the last thing you want is for her to be unhappy Papa ... I haven't seen mum smile so much since you've been gone Papa, I'm happy for her ... Chanyoung is very nice to us, his wife passed away to breast cancer, it saddens him to the core but wished to move on ... he has two daughters, one is the same age as me! Her name is Yoo Jeongyeon, I hope she's nice ... I'm moving to Korea soon with Mama and Chanyoung, I'll be living with Jeongyeon, I'm kind of excited to have a roommate ... hope we get along! Wish me luck Papa! ...'

Jeongyeon laughs at Momo's optimism. She remembers the last entry, the page writing was kind of smeared, it looked like Momo cried when she wrote the entry, blotching the paper as she writes.

'April 24 ... Papa ... Mina ... I'm so sorry, please forgive me, I did something awful ... I feel so dirty, I keep scrubbing but no matter how hard I scrub the dirt won't fall off ... NAOMI, he told me he would stop bullying me if I did something for him ... he asked for to get on my knees and blow. I refused. I tried fighting back, but he was stronger ... I'm sorry I'm not strong enough ... I hate myself ... I tried and I'm sorry I failed ... please forgive me'
