One Step Closer - PART 1

One Step Closer - 130💕

Myeong-suk's face went pale while Na-Rae stared at her with a shocked face.

Na-Ra scoffed. "Now even the attorneys don't wanna do shit about this. Attorney Kim and his associates are loyal to the Park family." Her chest heaved. "We're fucking stuck here for god knows how long and you have the fucking audacity to tell me that you did nothing?!" She shook the bars. "Open your mouth one more time and I'll strangle you! Do you hear me?! Huh?!"

The door burst open and a cop entered, banging the door loudly. "Quiet!" he hissed. "I'll lock each one of you separately if you don't stop yelling."

"Fucking lock me away then," Na-Ra growled. "I'm afraid I'll do something worse if I'm here."

Myeong-suk's bottom lip trembled and she didn't say a word. She took a few steps back only to be grabbed by Na-Rae who was behind her in another cell.

"You're so evil!" Na-Rae yelled. "How could you! I told you again and again that I was violating the rules and this shouldn't come out. How could you be so selfish?! You ruined everything!" She shook their mother. "How could you?!"

"Hey, stop that!" the cop hurried to her cell, smacking the bars with his baton. "I mean it."

Na-Rae released her but her pheromones were stinking the place. Her anger didn't seem to subside. "Are you happy now? You ruined my entire career," she blamed.

"What about the drugs, huh?" Myeong-suk growled. "I wasn't the one who put drugs in your home. What do you say about that?"

"It was a mistake!" Na-Rae yelled. "I had a party that weekend. One of the guests must have left it behind. I didn't get time to call the cleaner because I was working." Her chest heaved and she dropped to the floor. "The police wouldn't have checked my apartment if not for your stupidity. I was just minding my business but you had to ruin everything. My entire career is gone. It's all over!" She sobbed, sagging down to the floor.

Myeong-suk looked like she was struck by lightning while the cop shook his head, leaving them to their devices once again.

"I'll never forgive you for this," Na-Rae murmured. "I fucking hate you! You're not my mother anymore." She turned around, hugging her knees to her chest and rocking back and forth. "I should have never clicked those photos," she sniffled. "I was fucking insane for wanting to share what I found and to trust this so-called family." Then her anger turned on Na-Ra. "I told you!" she screamed. "I fucking told you this woman can't shut her trap to save her life! You said she won't tell anyone."

Na-Ra clenched her jaw so tight that it hurt. "I was wrong." Her features hardened and she glared at her mother.

"Yeah?! You were wrong. Always wrong!" Na-Rae growled. "Always making bad choices and doing everything that you normally shouldn't. You fucked Jun-Myeon while you were leading on Jimin. He found out and booted you. But you continued to sleep around and kept begging Jimin to take you even after he rejected you a zillion times. Look at what he did? He made me sit here like an idiot. Then he brought you and her just because you were both involved by extension. How worse should this get? I should have never trusted you." She gripped her hair. "I'm an idiot." She slapped her face several times as she cried, chest heaving. "I'm done for. It's all over. I lost everything. How do I even show my face to others now?"

"Na-Rae..." Na-Ra called softly. "We will figure something out. Calm down. I'll talk to Jimin."

"No!" Na-Rae growled. "I will talk to Jimin." She clapped her hands in front of them in a praying gesture. "Whatever you have done so far is enough. Leave me the fuck alone!"

"Na-Rae, please stop."

"No!" Na-Rae bellowed. "Stop talking to me. I don't wanna see you or speak to you. I'm done with you."
