What's she hiding

When Sarang opened the balcony door from her bedroom, she gasped at the sight.

There was a setting made up like a camping area. The lawn in the balcony also filled with flowers. It looks so beautiful to see it at night time. Sarang lay on the hammock swing and looked up to see the stars.

Night breeze slowly kissed her cheek as she recalled what happened in the living room. Things were not simple as she thinks.

Sarang know that she got kidnapped on her way to the police station because she took the blame for Mina. But why in the file it said that she escaped from the police?

Did Mina manipulated those things?

Sarang closed her eyes as she started to recall what happened after she fainted.

When JinAe opened her eyes she saw her hands and legs were tied. Back of her head felt kind of heavy, maybe it's because of the hit she got earlier. Who in the world kidnapped her? Do they want money? Did they threatened her Uncle Lee to give money to release her?

JinAe was sure Mina must be bawling her eyes out knowing that she was missing. Also searching for her like maniac.

JinAe saw a broken pieces of glass nearby. She took it and started to cut the rope. Thankfully no one appeared until she cut the rope in her hands and legs.

JinAe stood up as she glanced at her surroundings.

Why does this place look like a hospital ward? It must be abandoned for a long time.

When she was about to open the door, it was suddenly opened by someone from outside. JinAe panicked as she stood in her place.

The door opened and revealed Mina. Seeing her made JinAe to relax. She ran and hugged Mina, "I knew it. I knew that you will come for me" She released her hug, "Did the kidnappers saw you? Did you come alone? Come let's go. What if th-" before she could finish her words Mina gave a hard slap which made JinAe to fell on the ground.

"M-Mina"

"Why didn't you die along with your parents?"

"Sarang"

"Sarang, wake up" SungJin tried to wake the Sarang who was having a nightmare.

When the next door bedroom opened, SungJin lifted his head from his laptop to see Sarang entering into the balcony. His eyes narrowed and guessed Beom Seok must have allocated the bedroom next door to Sarang. He should remember to give bonus to Beom Seok.

Sarang falied to notice him who was sitting near the wall on the sofa in the lawn because her eyes were glued only to the flowers and hammock swing.

Does those things looks better than him?

SungJin felt bitter after her hostile towards him in the living room. He knows JinAe was very important to Sarang, but he doesn't know why JinAe was important to Sarang.

SungJin was sure that Sarang and JinAe never crossed their path, then how in the world Sarang got to know about JinAe.

While he was thinking SungJin heard a sniffling sounds from Sarang. At the thought of her crying made him to ran towards her afraid something might have happened to her.

He saw Sarang was crying in her sleep. 'Is she having a bad dream?'

Seeing her crying made him felt a pang on his chest. Just what made her to cry like this?

"Sarang" he tapped her cheeks. But still Sarang was mumbling and crying in her sleep.

SungJin lifted her from the hammock swing and carried Sarang inside to her bedroom which was next to his. He gently placed her on the bed, "Sarang, wake up"

SungJin called out to her as he gently rubbed her back trying to stop her from crying in her sleep.

He was scared. He was genuinely scared. He didn't even batted an eye when the enemy thrusted a knife in his stomach. He didn't even collapsed when his beloved grandfather left the world. But now he was scared to lose her. It was painful to see her in this state.

Just what made her to suffer like this? What's she hiding from everyone?

"It's okay. It's just a dream. Everything will be okay"

After seeing the girl in his arms calm down, he relaxed. SungJin stayed with her till the morning then he left to his room not to embarrass her.

Sarang opened her eyes and looked puzzled. She was sure that in her dreams she heard SungJin's voice assuring her that everything will be okay.

She was even more puzzled to seeing her sleeping on the bed. As far Sarang remembered she was sleeping on the hammock swing on the balcony, but how come she was in the bed?

Is she sleep walked?

Sarang and her friends left SungJin's villa. They didn't saw SungJin, only heard that he left for his work. Chan Woo felt proud saying that his Idol really an workaholic that made him charismatic.

Sarang shook her head at his comment. She felt empty when she didn't saw SungJin during breakfast.

Later in the afternoon, Sarang went to the library to take notes for the upcoming exams, suddenly her phone ringed. It's from unknown caller, so she ignored.

After sometimes it ringed once again, Sarang felt annoyed and put her phone in silent.

In upcoming exams, Sarang decided to score for a full marks. When she heard that top scorer in the Computer science department in these consecutive two years were Mina.

Sarang scoffed at the thought of being her as a top scorer. If JinAe was here, it would have been her, the top scorer. Sarang was sure that Mina must of cheated or Mina might have used the tricks which JinAe taught her in the exams.

Otherwise, there's no way that Mina could be a top scorer.

This year, Sarang planned to change the history of Computer Science department.

Sarang looked outside, the sky started to get dark. She closed the books and took her bags to leave the library. When she was on her way to the dorm, Sarang remembered that her phone was in silent. When she unlocked her phone, Sarang saw more than ten missed calls from the unknown caller.

Just who in the world called her so many times?

"Why didn't you answered your phone?"

Sarang stopped walking when heard familiar yet unfamiliar voice.
