Chapter 59 - |A Surprise Visit|

--Kim Young's Point of View--

"------" my phone began to ring and vibrate as I read a book about the four lines that the characters must not cross.

This story has taught me a lot about astronomy too.

Should I quit modeling and just study that?

"Surely, Haesu would agree to that, right?" but I doubt that I can last even a short while there, given the fact that I don't quite feel intrigued by science.

The two of these are connected, correct? "I don't know anymore."

I picked up the call, closing the book as I placed my favorite bookmark on the page where I ended up. 'Uncle Willows' was the name of the contact who called me.

I waited for a moment before listening in, hearing nothing but silence since we agreed upon keeping this between us, and only us.

"Are you the Youthful Informant..?" a different voice spoke compared to the one I expected to hear but I answered anyway because the only few people who knew my code name were Officer Willows, Officer Travis, and Officer Ravel...

"This is he, and who is this?" I am all the more aware of the fact that my contact on Officer Willows' phone is not my code name nor is it my real name.

'037' as it is a part of my phone number.

"They are on the way there, be safe." that was the only thing they said.

The voice wasn't familiar but they knew me well enough to say such things, furthermore, someone was coming.

"I'm sorry, can you tell me who you are?" the call ended when I answered, or barely even finished giving my response to whoever it was.

"Who are you talking to?" just when I was about to dial the number and call back.

Haesu entered the room with her hand in the air while the other one was tucked in her back pocket.

I didn't have time to waste on her so I left as soon as she stepped away from the doorway, giving me plenty of space to walk out without getting blocked.

"Hey! Wait up." she shouted from inside the room but we never met each other again till the day came to an end.

The sun was replaced by the moon now, and no other cruiser was out in the open, confusing me.

After the phone call, I waited at the top of the yacht outside the control room where the seamen drove the sailboat. "What are you doing up here?"

Shin Haru came by, at the same time, and Ji Eun was together with him.

"Ji Eun, what are you two doing together?!" I was angered by the sight of them, it looked like they did something that I usually do with Ji Eun and even Haesu.

'Though it rarely happens with her.' but that isn't the point here now, is it?

"Answer me before I misinterpret any of this!"

I yelled at them but Ji Eun fainted in the hands of our rivals.

"Chill dude, we only had a couple of shots so here we are." he chuckled while leaving my unconscious lover on the ground.

He left before I could even do anything about what I had just discovered, taking my lover to her bedroom as the night had gotten humid, leaving us cold with these thin clothes.

"I'll get him next time when I see his face, I'm destroying it."

The only thing stuck in my mind was punching that bastard, I sat at the bedside of Ji Eun's shared bed with Sihyeon as the other girl rested on the opposite end.

'I also don't think that she would agree to have anything to do with Haru...'

And the last thing that I would want to happen in this yacht on a seemingly peaceful night is another bloody fight.

"A massacre." I heard a whisper, looking around to search for the source, I ended up seeing my friend, Sihyeon Kim, sweating like crazy as she was in a deep slumber.

"Hey, Sihyeon!" I gently shook her, noticing that she constantly spoke in her sleep, probably having a nightmare about some sort of massacre...

"Hold on."

'A massacre was it..?' her murmuring didn't stop any time soon, terrifying me as I recalled the phone call that happened earlier today.

There were only three of us in the room, and the others weren't around.

"What could this mean?"

Questions and unexplainable events today drove me insane, hence, I decided to leave the room before I lost myself, needing some fresh air to organize my mind.

"Uncle, I am telling you that there is no way that she did that!" my girlfriend's voice was loud enough for me to hear as I stood at the side of the ferry.

"The evidence says otherwise."

'I think it is Officer Willows...' I noticed a speedboat at the side of the yacht as the pilot took a break from steering, he looked like he came here alone though, but why exactly are they talking about this right now?

"Yua is perfectly safe, she would never do anything like that to my sister!" she argued as the night grew deeper.

"Well, maybe you're just investigating the wrong person?" she contemplated.

"There should be a different angle to this case." Haesu added.

I thought to myself that I had to do something about this, I was involved, after all.

"Please, don't cause a ruckus here." before I could even enter the door where their voices came from, I stopped myself from doing so as it felt right.

But then, my friends can't possibly be the culprit although...

'I already have a suspect in mind.' so I am not letting the other be mistargeted for something they did not commit or even think about committing.

"I'll join the investigation..." she murmured under her breath, trying to calm herself down from going berserk on her own relative.

"Stop it." I put her down on the seat as soon as I opened the door, meeting the two of them. "What are you doing here?" her uncle asked, specifically Officer Willows.

"You shouldn't meddle with this kind of thing, Haesu." I advised her not to get involved since she is basically the person with the motive of doing something bad to her sister.

"Do you really think that people would side with you if they find out that you were there too? I doubt it." she scoffed upon hearing this.

Thus, she left the room because she highly knew that what I said was true, now.

"Back to the point..."

"I do not have any time to spare for this nonsense. That Yua person is without a doubt, the one who did it." he replied.

The man rushed out of the room, leaving the door wide open as it slowly closed itself, giving me enough time to see my girlfriend walk away.

And then, suddenly she chased him downstairs.

"Don't you dare lay a hand on any of my friends." she burst while I took the shortcut, also known as the elevator, I couldn't even think of using the dumb waiter.

"Hold on! Just let me handle this, uncle!" I heard their footsteps tapping on the metal ground as I reached the bottom floor where the others weren't.

I remembered that they were at the very bottom of this yacht, still trying to get a hold of Honey Lou's whereabouts for hours now.

"If you don't listen to me, I will have my team enter the cruise as well."

"Please stop with this nonsense, Lee Haesu." I warned her for the last time before many things happened that night.

Instead of feeling relaxed from all the school activities, we were met with an unfortunate visit by the police officers...

--Lee Haesu's Point of View--

I squeezed through the closet, peeking through the binds as Sihyeon placed herself on the bed that she shared with one of our female friends.

Plotting a payback to those cheating and backstabbing friends of ours.

"Are you all set??" she gave me a silent reply, putting out one of her thumbs in the air before finally getting some actual rest.

The sound of a knock soon came along, earlier than expected, Kim Young entered with Song Ji Eun in his hands.

'Carrying her inside as if she was his bride...'

My closest friend, Ji Eun was sleeping so soundly in the grasp of my soon ex-boyfriend whilst I hid inside the dusty closet.

Watching them closely as Sihyeon went on to carry out the plan.

I left the scene through a secret passage within the closet behind all the clothes we stored in, deciding to see if I could find the others and stir up a fight to alarm Kim Young.

"Surely, he believes Sihyeon. Everything our friend says is true."
