‎
‎Miata and Korpu were friends, but their friendship was put to the test when some of their friends became jealous of their bond. These so-called friends decided to separate them by stealing Miata's money and putting it in Korpu's bag.
‎
‎When Miata realized her money was missing, she started searching her classmates' bags, but didn't searched Korpu's. One of the students, who had put the money in Korpu's bag, shouted, "I know who took your money!" and pointed at Korpu.
‎
‎The student claimed to have seen Korpu putting the money in her bag, and Miata was torn. However, she stood up for Korpu, saying, "I trust my friend; she can never steal my money." But the student insisted that Miata should check Korpu's bag to prove her innocence.
‎
‎Miata decided to search Korpu's bag, despite her reservations. Unfortunately, she found the money in Korpu's bag, which led to a dramatic confrontation. Miata got disappointed and left Korpu, who tried to explain that she didn't steal the money.
‎
‎
‎After the incident, Miata distanced herself from Korpu. Three months passed, and it seemed like their friendship was over. But then, a student came forward and told Miata that Korpu was innocent. The student had been video recording when the real culprits put the money in Korpu's bag.
‎
‎When Miata saw the video, she realized her mistake and felt terrible. She apologized to Korpu, who forgave her and shared some valuable words of wisdom: "You're my friend, and if you hear anything about me or I do anything wrong to you, don't be quick to react." From that moment on, their friendship grew stronger than before.
