전생에 정민규를 향한 내 마음은 깊이를 헤아릴 수 없을 정도였고, 나는 오로지 한 남자만 바라보는 해바라기였다. 그에게 좋아하는 사람이 따로 있다는 사실을 알면서도, 거머리처럼 달라붙어 결국 은혜를 원수로 갚는 꼴이 되고 말았다. 몇 년 뒤, 나는 수단과 방법을 가리지 않고 마침내 소원대로 그와 결혼했다. 이제 행복한 날만 남았을 거라 믿으며 3년간 결혼 생활을 이어갔고, 얼음장처럼 차가운 그의 심장을 녹이려고 갖은 애를 썼다. 그러던 어느 날, 그의 첫사랑이 돌아오고 나서야 비로소 정신이 번쩍 들었다. 인생을 돌이켜보니, 남은 거라고는 후회와 좌절뿐이었다. 수능 전으로 환생한 나는 전생에 열광했던 소년을 다시 마주하는 순간, 더는 그에게 목매지 않고 내 인생을 살겠다고 다짐했다. 일방적인 사랑은 포기하는 것이 답이었다. 그러나 무관심으로 일관하던 그가 어느 날, 인기척이 드문 구석에서 나를 벽에 밀치더니 이를 바득바득 갈며 말했다. “고은성, 남의 마음을 흔들어놓고 도망가려고? 꿈 깨!”
