00:00Whenever she made a mistake in training, the young girl was beaten by her mother, who was also her coach.
00:04When she returned home, she still had to continue practicing as punishment.
00:07Covered in sweat, she had to stand on her tiptoes for two minutes before finally being allowed to stop.
00:12Each time, her mother would stroke her face and say,
00:14Mom is doing all this for your own good.
00:16Back then, I gave up competition and missed my chance to become world champion just to give birth to you.
00:21She kept repeating that as long as her daughter won the world championship,
00:23she was willing to sacrifice anything.
00:25Then she would force her to finish eating and resume training again in the evening.
00:29One day at school, the girl asked for a break, but her mother scolded her harshly.
00:32She had to grit her teeth and keep spinning despite the pain.
00:35Her period started and stained her training outfit.
00:37The other students mocked her.
00:38In the locker room, they humiliated her further.
00:41So what if your mom is the coach?
00:42You still don't have the level.
00:43They hid her clothes, locked her inside, and went home while she cried, curled up in a corner.
00:48A classmate heard her sobbing and came to rescue her,
00:50seeing her awkwardly trying to cover the back of her outfit.
00:52He immediately took off his jacket and tied it around her waist.
00:55But at that moment, her mother suddenly appeared at the door.
00:57However, the girl didn't even have time to thank the boy and hurriedly tried to explain.
01:01As soon as they got home, her mother slapped her and shouted,
01:03Who is that boy?
01:04Are you already in a relationship?
01:05Through tears, the girl explained she had been locked in a locker room by classmates.
01:09But her mother was convinced she was lying and even suspected they had an intimate relationship.
01:13Only when the girl explained she was on her period did her mother reluctantly believe her.
01:16Back in her room, the girl thought about the boy who had helped her.
01:19He, like her little rabbit, was the only light left in her life.
01:22When she had first wanted to adopt the rabbit, her mother had refused.
01:25Only after an aunt pointed out that her excellent competition results deserved a reward,
01:29did her mother reluctantly agree.
01:30At that moment, her mother was still watching her from the doorway.
01:33The girl quickly put down the rabbit and went to bed.
01:35The next morning, before school, she tried to eat breakfast, but her mother stopped her.
01:39In two days, there are selection trials.
01:40You must endure.
01:41When her mother discovered the boy's jacket was missing, she flew into another rage.
01:45Weak from lack of food, the girl fainted shortly after arriving at school.
01:48Fortunately, her aunt, who was also her homeroom teacher, took her to the hospital.
01:52She gave her some candies before returning to teach.
01:54Back at school, the girl happened to meet the boy and wanted to return his jacket,
01:58but her mother appeared once again and scolded her severely.
02:01Seeing milk candies in her bag, she immediately assumed the boy had given them to her.
02:04Furious, she rushed into her daughter's room and gave the rabbit away to someone else.
02:08The girl fell to her knees, begging for forgiveness.
02:11But her mother cruelly said,
02:12You'd better pray you finish first in tomorrow's selections and get into the national team.
02:16What she didn't know was that the boy's mother was the head coach of the national team.
02:19When she came to pick up her son, she happened to notice the training hall lights were still on.
02:22Approaching quietly, she saw the girl practicing tirelessly.
02:25She was deeply impressed.
02:27The girl executed for extremely difficult moves with remarkable fluency.
02:31Excited, she called to say the next day's competition wasn't even necessary anymore.
02:34She had already found the ideal candidate to win the world title.
02:37But the organizers explained the announcement had already been made.
02:40So she decided to attend the competition personally the next day.
02:42Weakened by forced fasting and crushed by psychological pressure,
02:45the girl still dazzled the audience when she first stepped onto the stage.
02:49Yet in the middle of her routine, she made a tiny mistake.
02:51She gritted her teeth and finished anyway, ultimately winning a strong second place.
02:55But her mother publicly insulted her.
02:57If you really worked hard enough, you wouldn't only be second.
02:59The boy had come with his mother to watch, but the head coach was still delayed on the road.
03:03The boy's presence became an excuse for the mother to vent her anger.
03:06She accused her daughter of failing because of an alleged early romance.
03:09She raised her hand to strike her.
03:11The boy bravely stepped in to stop her, but the mother immediately turned her fury on him.
03:15You're the one who taught her to fall in love.
03:16Because of you, she won't enter the national team.
03:19You ruined her.
03:19The girl cried, repeating that it had nothing to do with him.
03:22But her mother shouted, you don't deserve to call me mom, and even gave away her rabid.
03:26In a burst of anger, the girl's world completely collapsed.
03:28She explained through sobs that her mistake happened because she had been forbidden to eat
03:32and asked why her mother refused to believe her.
03:33Her mother ignored her suffering and shouted in public, I should never have given birth to you.
03:38Broken, the girl screamed back, then act as if I never existed.
03:41She ran toward the corridor and stopped at the edge of the railing.
03:43Her mother still thought she was only threatening her.
03:45The boy desperately tried to calm her.
03:47Her aunt said the girl had done nothing wrong, but the fault lay with her mother.
03:50She promised that as long as she was there, the girl wouldn't have to go home if she didn't want
03:54to,
03:54nor continue dancing if she didn't wish.
03:56She could choose her own life.
03:57For a moment, the girl felt a glimmer of hope for the future.
04:00The next instant, a slap cracked across her face.
04:03Her mother accused her of trying to gain others' pity.
04:06The girl's hope vanished immediately.
04:07She broke free from her aunt's grip and stepped back.
04:09At that very moment, the head coach finally arrived.
04:12The aunt held the girl's hand tightly as she begged to be allowed to leave that home.
04:15Then, gathering her last strength, she pulled free.
04:18And in her mind, only her mother's cruel face remained.
