episode 4/1

Tae-oh nod."I heard about them dealing things like that. Things like edible and GHB." He tap the passcode and stood aside.

"Take a look." He said while carefully see if there's someone coming.

Kang Ha hum and open the locker. The first thing he saw is a multiple polaroid picture. They were Ri-an and Jae-i. He look at her picture thoughtfully. She was smiling brightly like a free spirit and they both look like a lovely couple.

Turns out that snow queen know how to smile like human.

He would've thought it was fake seeing how she treat him now. When he look down, at the corner of the locker, there's one picture left that wasn't Jae-i.

To his shock, it was Yoona. It's not just a normal pict of Yoona, it's her, wearing a hospital gown, lying in bed while Ri-an asleep leaning his head on her shoulder, wrapping her arms around her. Yoona face look pissed while the boy beside her comfortably pass out.

Her face looks pale like paper. She looks thinner than she is now.

Kang Ha couldn't help but clench his jaw seeing how close the two are. She was always look like she despise every single of him so how come she let that jerk hold her like that.

By the look at the date, it was few days after In-ha died.

What exactly happened to her?

"Find anything?" He startled when Tae-oh came back and clear his throat.

"What is it? Is there something in the picture?"

Kang Ha point at the picture."What happened?" Tae-oh took closer look and open his mouth.

"After the incident, she went missing for two or three days before coming back with news of her in hospital." He glance at his face."No one knows what happened, rumors said she was deeply depressed after what happened and....y'know."

Kang Ha blankly stare at the close proximity before he turn his head away."let's look further." He hold his phone tighter.

Tae-oh was confused but follow his lead.

"You don't look too good."

Jae-i flinch by Yoona sudden noise.

She sheepishly smile."Rough night."

Yoona lean on to the railing next to her."Daddy thow a tantrum?" Her voice lowered.

Jae-i shake her head."He's been silence after we get back." When she turn at Yoona fully, something caught her eyes.

"Did... something happened with your dad too?" She didn't know why she softened her toned when she ask.

Yoona pull down her sleeve, hiding a purple red mark on her wrist."He got his period."she jokingly said.

Jae-i want to ask more but notice a particular boy sneaking behind. He signal her to keep quiet, but Jae-i shook her head to stop him.

But it was too late, Kang Ha hug her from behind. His hold were tighter than usual. The sudden pressure made Yoona hissed but she was fast to cover her pain.

"Morning!"

Yoona smile, turn her head and peck his jaw."Morning~" Jae-i could hear she's slightly shaking.

Kang Ha turn to Jae-i."How are you?" He felt like he need to ask this consider her horror face that night.

Jae-i turn her back on him, completely treating like he didn't exist.
