"Wait what?! What do you mean she's dead?" Sunoo exclaimed.
"She was found bloody at the school rooftop. Bureau of Police are here for investigation" Eunbyol replied.
"But wait, why are you including Sunoo in here?" Sunghoon interfered.
"You're handsome but I'm not here for your friend Sunoo" Eunbyol added.
"I'm here for Yoona. The police wants to interview you about the last thing you saw when you were attacked by someone."
They all turned around and looked at her.
"Me?" Yoona asked pointing herself.
Eunbyol then nodded.
-
"Hey, Sunoo,calm down" Lia calmed Sunoo by holding his hands because he kept on walking back and forth.
"HOW CAN I CALM DOWN?! 'SHE' IS AFTER EVERYONE!" Sunoo yelled.
Lia was surprised. Even though she doesn't know whom he's talking about, she stepped back. Sunoo slowly realized his actions.
"Sunoo,stop" Sunghoon meddled.
Sunoo turned his back on them and waited for Yoona outside the interrogation room.
"It's okay. Leave him alone for now" Sunghoon whispered to Lia.
"Hmmm" she hummed.
-
"Ms. Choi Yoo Na, right?" The police officer started.
Yoona nodded.
"Don't be scared. You're not being framed. We only want to ask you some questions because we believe the suspect behind Soo Hyun, Dahee's death and the one who attacked you is only one."
Yoona lowered her gaze and listened carefully.
"Can you tell me what he or she looks like?"
Yoona shook her head.
"I didn't because I was attacked behind my back" Yoona reported.
"Okay. Did something unexplainable happened before the incident?"
Yoona tried to recall everything.
"Before it happened, I received an unknown call telling me to go to the school playground. I was so curious so I followed but then, I saw no one and I was suddenly attacked by someone."
"Okay. On the way you were attacked, did you at least took a glance at the attacker?"
"I didn't but I'm sure it was a man. He was so strong that's why I gave up. I lost hope that I could still survive so I let him bite me but before I could lose my consciousness, I can hear someone yelling" Yoona explained.
The police gasped, "this is harder than I thought. Ms. Ji-na said she didn't saw it too."
"I'm sorry sir. Are we done now? Can I go out now? My friends are waiting for me" Yoona excused.
"Ah of course you can. Take care always" the police officer bid as they bow down to each other.
Yoona walked out and saw Sunoo sitting alone outside dozing out.
"Wake up, Sunoo" Yoona whispered and pat him on the shoulder.
"Oh. Yoona?"
"Let's go. I'm done."
Sunoo stretched his arms high in the air yawning.
Yoona noticed the absence of Sunghoon and Lia and couldn't help but to ask Sunoo.
"Where's Lia and Sunghoon by the way?"
Sunoo's eyebrows went up. He tilted his head and they aren't by his side.
"Where did they go?" Sunoo uttered.
Yoona slapped Sunoo's shoulder, "what are you doing? Let's go find them! What if something odd happen?"
"I told you, Sunghoon is my brother anyway! He can protect themselves" Sunoo replied.
"Still! You can't just leave him! Your enemy is somewhere in there finding a right time to attack you both! You must be together at all times! Your enemy is more stronger than you think!" Yoona scolded.
Sunoo flinched when she started yelling. Yoona forcedly drag Sunoo outside and started searching for the two.
"They are in the school nursery! Along the woods!" Sunoo said being tired walking around the playground.
Yoona looked back, "eh?!"
"I can smell them both from here" Sunoo replied.
"Then let's go in there."
-
"Oh! I didn't know that orchids grow in here. They are so pretty" Lia beamed happily while collecting white orchids.
Sunghoon smiled to see her smiling after the misunderstanding happened earlier.
"I didn't know you like flowers" Sunghoon said crossing his arms while watching her behind.
"It's been a long time since I collected flowers and put it on a vase. I used to go out with Jungwon and collect them with him but since he left, dad never allowed me to go that far again."
Sunghoon didn't respond.
"You really must've missed him."
"Enough with that, I'll just wish he'll comeback anytime. I hope he's healing well somewhere" Lia said and continued collecting them.
"I'm sure he is. Now that you already collected enough, what do you want to do next?" Sunghoon asked.
Lia looked down on the bundle of orchids in her hands.
"I already collected beautiful flowers. I'll just sit in here and wait for a butterfly to perch on it" she replied and sat down on a tree.
"You must take 100 years to sit in there before a butterfly would come" Sunghoon said.
"That's okay. I'm willing to wait."
Sunghoon stayed silent.
A moment after, Lia's eyes sparked in happiness when a blue butterfly perched on her orchids.
"Oh! A butterfly!" she said happily lifting her gaze to Sunghoon.
"Happy?"
"I'm way more than happy" Lia responded. Sunghoon walked towards her and let the butterfly perched on his finger.
Lia stood up and watched it stay.
"Lia,look closely" Sunghoon started staring at it.
"Okay."
"Look how beautiful it was created. It was created beautifully and it was living its life freely but still, it needed protection. Some humans wants to snatch it and tear it apart but there are some who is willing to protect it. All it need to do is to stay still."
"Woah. I didn't know, you were that poetic" Lia responded.
Lia focused her eyes on its pretty wings.
The butterfly suddenly fled away as Sunghoon froze after he felt someone and an uninvited presence near them. He stayed still because of a strong smell he can sense.
"Oh it fled away" Lia sulked.
"Werewolves....." Sunghoon uttered.
"Huh?"
Lia looked around and spotted something.
"Oh look! A dog!" she yelled tapping her friend beside. Sunghoon quickly looked at her direction and saw a black furry wolf.
"Lia, that's not a dog!"
"It is!" she fought back. Sunghoon's attention was caught again when another one is on his side........ and another one...
They were surrounded.....
Lia was about to walk towards it when Sunoo suddenly jumped out from nowhere and smashed the wolf against a tree.
"Sunoo! The dog!" Lia tried to stop.
Sunoo seriously approached her and held her both shoulders looking straight into her eyes.
"I know you're that clueless but will you please stop assuming things?! It's not what you think!"
"There you go shouting agai--" Lia was cut off when she suddenly passed out. It was because of Sunghoon's tricks again. Sunoo quickly catched her.
"Where's Yoona? Don't tell me you left her alone."
"No I didn't. I told our older brother to distract her so she's under his supervision."
"Good. Now, get Lia out of here" Sunghoon ordered.
"The sun is still setting. Once you show yourself,you'll burn."
"I won't make any transformation. I'll just take care of them--" before he could even finish his line, more wolves arrived but his eyes sparked when he spotted the only white fur among them.
"I spotted her! Leave!" Sunghoon warned.
"I'll come back! I'll just take Lia home!" Sunoo bid as he carry Lia's body and used his sharp eyes to avoid the enemies, dashed quickly out of the woods.
