Chapter 21: the truth

Inside the hotel at the meeting room area.

Luna, Red, Jae, Ethan, Elaine and Dong-Yul were sitting at the chair beside a heater. The staff give them towel and leave the room. Red stand up and went to talk to an officer "Please tell me that some of you guys were looking for her at the sea" He asked, The officer suddenly avoided his gaze "Due to the sudden rain, the search is stopped" They said. Red can't stop but to be angry about them and feel frustrated. "You want her on jail right? Why can't you guys stop searching?! She might drown if no one will rescue her!" Red said and put his towel at the floor , The other officers went toward Red "Calm down kid, were a police not a rescue team. Were here to arrest her, but we already contact a rescue team they probably contacting us any seconds" They try to calm Red.

"Arrest her? For what?" Jae asked.

The police nod to other officer, then Luna, Dong-Yul and everyone were instructed to go outside the meeting room. The one remains were Ethan, Elaine, Jae and Red. "Kid, Your Mother is a suspect for murder" The officer place his hands to the table. Jae felt chills through his bones as he heard wat the officer said, he wave his head not believing what he heard. "She would never did that" then look to Red but on his surprise Red doesn't look so surprise. Jae tug Red's shirt waiting him to look back at him.

"Detective Anderson already inform us about everything, you, the evidence. Red and Jae as promise you were protected, if any question please contact Detective Anderson" the Police said went to check the other officer to asked if there are some leads. They were talking to a walkie-talkie and then the officer went Jae and Red. "The rescue team find her, she still unconscientious but she is breathing" the officer said then tap to Red's arms before they go. "She will be in our custody, if you wanted to visit her call Detective first and.." the officer look to Elaine and Ethan "Bring them also when we were interrogating your mother" The officer said.

The door open and all the concerned person went inside to check what happen, Red look to Elaine and Ethan as everyone go to their side and asked what happen, Even Luna went to them and Jae talking to Elaine this time. Red felt unnecessary jealousy as he feels the gap between his friend to him, between Luna to him it makes him feel like he go back to the place he wanted but there is no place for him anymore. Red felt a little angry to his Mother, if she didn't force him to go Canada and got guarded by several body guards and servants this will never happen. Red explain to Jae what the officers said, Jae agree to meet at the police station tomorrow with the help of the detective. Then all the club advisers try to calm few student and instruct them to rest for today.

Next day.

Elaine, Ethan, Jae and Red went to the Police station.

They were inside the interrogation room and they saw Kuniko on another room by the secret mirror. Kumiko was sitting at the chair and in front of her were a police and a detective name Anderson.

The detective scan some paper and then tried to asked Kumiko. "Ms. Fujiwara. Do you still remember where you at, at the time 4:00 pm five years ago?" Kumiko look to the detective and slam her hands to the table. "This is unfair!... I only did that because this is unfair!!" Kumiko shouted. The elegant and strong willed Kumiko is now acting suspicious as she keep shouting. The police and detective try to calm him down. "Let me ask you another question" the detective says. "When you were in age 20, you were a teacher's assistant at Sarang University, correct?" the detective asked and Kumiko nod as confirmation biting her thumb nail.

Ethan look to Jae "Sarang university? I heard its very dangerous to study there" Ethan said.

"It's speak on their reputation, so yes" Jae agreed.

"According to this record you only last for two years, which is your age that time is 22" The Anderson asked and Kumiko nods.

"we have collect the record of your medical checkup for your first pregnancy test, which happen two month later after you left the University, So in age of 22 you were pregnant" Detective said and Kumiko agreed. "After a year you tried to sued a dean from a Sarang university, but you didn't win the case" They asked.

"That was true, I was forced to do disgusting things with the Dean and resulted for me being pregnant. The dean have a family but forces me to do those things so I left and sued him after I gave birth to Red" Kumiko said. Ethan and Elaine look to Red but Red was so focus watching his Mother's interrogation. Jae holds Red's right arm, Red tap Jae's head. Telling to his gestures that he is fine.

"Ms. Fujiwara your saying that the dean was Red's father" Detective asked and Kumiko nods. The detective and the Police officer was silent for over 5 minutes as they writing something.

"Ms. Fujiwara, Do you know Francisco sanders?" Anderson asked and reached on another document.

Kumiko nods "I know him, he is currently working at my company, He is a good assistant secretary" .

"but did you know him before gaining success and having a business" Anderson asked again.

Kumiko pause for a moment. "I met him before, we were like in an intimate relationship but it was so fast. He immediately left me after telling him a got pregnant by him… and that time I haven't yet introduce Red to him.. But he know I have a son." Kumiko said.

"So your saying that Mr. Francisco is the Father of Jae, and was now currently working to your company?" Anderson asked. Kumiko nods.

Anderson open another document and asked Kumiko again.

"Ms. Fujiwara, the two men give money as a child support to you?" he asked.

Kumiko waved his head "No, but when Francisco learn that I am his boss he actually asked me to accept a child support from him for Jae but I refuse and we both ending up agreeing to introduce him to Jae as his father, but nothing more" she said.

"When Francisco left you, have you decided to open up your heart again to another guy?" Anderson asked.

"well that time I don't plan to, I want to focus on my children" Kumiko said. The lady officer nod in agreeing to what Kumiko said "That a wise decision, as a single parent like me too" The Lady officer said and Kumiko also agreed.

"Ms. Fujiwara, Do you know Mr. Edward smith?" Anderson asked and close a document he has been reading and look to Kumiko. She nods in response.

"What is your relationship with him?" Anderson asked.

Kumiko kept silent and didn't look to them.

"Ms. Fujiwara, please answer the question" Anderson asked one more time.

"we're friends and business partner" Kumiko said.

"He is the one who helped me to become successful today" She added.

"Ms. Fujiwara, you said that you didn't plan to open your heart after Francisco leaves right?" Anderson wait for her to nod in reply. "Then does your plan still remain when you men Mr. Edward Smith?" Anderson follow up a question.

Everyone are all looking to Kumiko waiting for her answer. Ethan suddenly caught his interest to what Kumiko going to answer, he suddenly crosses his arm and pay more attention this time.

"I-it's unexpected… but it's just one sided.." Kumiko said.

"I mean.. How can you not fall for him?.. when I was down and ready to give up he showed up and support me… for some reason…. He wishes me the best.. He is the only guy I met that so reliable.. He saw me as a friend without any intensions.. But he is married to other person and I saw that he really love Ellie" Kumiko said. Anderson let Kumiko speak freely.

"I met horrible Man in my past, then I met a better man but was not yet ready to have a family… and then I met I better and greater man but he was married to a lovely woman and he seems happy on his marriage… " Kumiko said but then her expression suddenly change..

"It's unfair.." She mumble.

Anderson and the officer asked what she was saying again.

"It's unfair….It's unfair…IT"S UNFAIR!!!!!" Kumiko stand and slam her both hands to the table. They take a moment to calm her down and start to asked a question again.

"Ms. Fujiwara, do you know Mrs. Tao?" Anderson sked but this time he is sitting beside Kumiko.

"She is a friend of mine" Kumiko said.

"Just a friend? But base on what the data said, She is also your Psychiatrist five years ago" Anderson said. Kumiko remain silent.

"We have an audio evidence interviewing Mrs. Tao, based on what she says and with the document, Ms. Fujiwara you were diagnosed to have a schizophrenia, right?" Anderson asked again.

Kumiko didn't say anything but Anderson was not very worked up.

"You were diagnose yet you didn't seek medication" Anderson said then slam his hand on the table. "You let someone die by agreeing to the person that only exist in your mind! You sick bastard!" Anderson shouted then hold Kumiko's right arm.

"You killed a person who trusted you! Who have a Wife and children, who IS my friend!" Anderson loss his cool making the officer take an action to separate them.

"Is this how you repay to his kindness? By killing him?!" Anderson shouted.

"You suffocate him the pillow at the hospital! I knew it was a murder not just some malfunction of some machine to give him air.. " Anderson shouted. Ethan and Elaine were shock to hear it but they can clearly still not believe that Kimiko did something that. Ethan turn to Red with a question written on their faces.

"I… am so sorry" Red said looking to Ethan and Elaine. Ethan can't helped but to throw a heavy punch to Red's face, Jae went between to both of them while Elaine stood there and can't move due to the things happening, se is confuse and scared. The officers with them also middle to the both of them but they all can see how Ethan was so furious and beaming with rage. The officer manage to drag them outside the interrogation room to give a space for both of them. Ethan and elaine decided to leave leaving Jae and Red inside the Police station.
