"I hope you all have read the book 'Bad Blood' by John Carreyrou..."
It was that boring biotech class that Haeun has always hated to join. Her father has always wanted her to pursue a Medical Degree, but after seeing her negligence in the profession he advised to take up Biomedical Engineering instead.
"Ma'am the book is amazing, with lots of twists, cliff hangings- oh god, it's giving me goosebumps right now!" A student started when few others nodded excitedly.
"I know Dora...its amazing, isn't it?" The teacher smiled and asked for the rest of the students.
She had already finished reading the book, but she didn't say a thing or showed any reaction to the question. As if a wooden puppet with human flesh is sitting there.
Her mind is somewhere else from the body.

"But...didn't it seem like that?"
"Seemed like what?" She also paused with Seol and kept on gazing at her with a confusion painted look. "I didn't get it."
"That he looked at me?"
Haeun rolled her eyes at her and asked, "Weren't we talking about some medicinal stuff? From where he came now?"
The blonde stuck her tongue out at her and apologized. She face palmed internally after looking at her cousin. They both started chuckling at each other, but a voice interrupted their free time.
Both looked at the direction.
But the brunette haired male was looking at only one of them- who he called, with his sweetly deep voice. "Bae Seol...right?"
Seol replied with the stuttering tone, "Uh-uhm...yes. D-Do you ne-need something?"
He didn't say anything but gave a gummy little smile at her. It was warm and genuine- Haeun could understand that, as her lips also curved slowly at the corners without her consent.
"Really?! You're that Bae Seol?" That tall guy from the other day, who was with him jumped from nowhere and questioned with a shocked expression.
This made the girl more surprised and scared, as she nodded without answering anything. But she was confused about what the tall one meant by 'that'.
"WOW!" With this, he quickly hugged Seol making others gasp in shock. Moving away, he asked, "You forgot us, Seol...don't you?" She just nodded again. He looked back at the other with a frown and said, "Yoongi...what should we do now?"
Seol's eyes widened when the other's creased as she looked at her. She screamed, "Yoongi? Are you- WAIT! Min Yoongi? And...Jin- Kim Seokjin?"
Both the males smiled at her warmly before they gave a group hug to each other. When Haeun was witnessing everything all alone.
She felt lonely...
But suddenly, Jin's eyes fell on her and he asked with creased brows, "And...who you might be?"
The other felt a gush of embarrassment running within his body after seeing her lost and pained eyes and scolded him, "Yah, Jin hyung! It's not the way you should talk!"
"Oh, sorry! My bad. Please don't mind anything", he apologized quickly giving a smile, to which she gladly accepted with a nod and smile.

Haeun came back home early after a day out with her new friends. Yeah, new friends. If they're her cousin's friends then wouldn't they be her friends as well? That's what her lonely self thought.
Though they suggested for dinner as well, she denied it. Today her uncle was coming back from abroad and someone needed to stay back- she took the job to herself as Seol was with them for the dinner.
Mr. Bae was early to reach his home and is now having his dinner with his other daughter, that's what he used to introduce her as.
"So...are you okay with the studies here? I hope the college isn't bad, is it?"
She sighed and asked, "How many times are you gonna ask the same thing uncle? You've already asked this about millions of times by this week, you know?"
He started to laugh out loud and patted her head, "You know that's my hobby. I love to talk a lot, unlike your dad, hahaha..."
"Yeah sure", she retorted sarcastically, to which his laughter grew to a louder one.
He was an outgoing natured person and was a social butterfly with everyone. No matter its a kid or an old man- he can mingle with anyone in every works of life.
"But when she gonna come back? Its already too late, you-"
The loud ring of the calling bell interrupted him when she ran to open the door. Seol came inside with a smile and plopped down on the couch.
"Looks like my sweetie is here, huh?" He came out from the dining hall after washing his hands and the daughter ran to him and hugged him, "DAD!"
Haeun kept on smiling at them.
She missed all this...

She couldn't find anything important in that Planner or Diary, whatever. Haeun kept on skipping the pages as it only contained the list of names and dates for some meetings and appointments of her father either with some hospitals or some people.
Suddenly, a page caught her attention.
The top right corner of the page was folded and as it looked some kind of handmade paper- the folded portion got torn a bit. And the page seemed kinda damped with some kind of liquid or water.
She opened it the folded portion before glancing at the page. And a horrible short sentence of two words made her mouth agape and eyes dinner plates. Her glance glided down only to notice some kind of letter being attached with the page along with a CD...
She opened the folds quickly.

The tears slowly left her eyes, making them puffy again. The diary fell from her hand and just a single word escaped from her mouth.
"Mom..."
When the sound of a CD rolling rang throughout the silent room along with her breathing. Yeah...she was still breathing. And slowly her glance fell on it...the CD.
