Author's Note: Busted, its plot, cast, and characters do not belong to me. Only Sunmi and the other OCs do.

-- September 20, 2017, 8:00 AM--

-- Lee Mansion, Seoul, South Korea --

A young woman groaned as she sat up on her bed and squinted her eyes at the sun that was shining through her window. She was stretching and rubbing the sleep off her eyes when one of the maids came into her room.

"Good morning, Miss Sunmi." The said maid greeted her with a bow to which the woman, now known as Sunmi, groaned at.

"Chunghee- unnie, how many times do I have to tell you not to call me 'miss'. Sunmi is fine." She told her personal maid, the one who had been with her for the last 5 years.

The woman ignored what she said and shrugged with a teasing smile. Sunmi rolled her eyes at that.

"Are Appa and Eomma around?" She asked.

"No, Miss Sunmi. Your father left for a conference and your mother went with him. They will be back in 5 days. Your teacher will not be meeting you today as well so she left some modules and activities for you to go through." Chung-hee informed her and Sunmi sighed tiredly. She didn't like the fact that she took University classes online and met with a teacher once a week to check up on her pace for the lessons.

She got ready for another boring day of doing modules by taking a bath and eating her breakfast first. Afterward, she started working on the modules her professor left behind. Sunmi was considered a genius with an IQ of 145. She had developed extremely fast at such a young age and her parents felt that her potential was being wasted going to a normal school. They didn't want to send her to school with people older than her as they didn't want to affect her chance to make friends with people her age so they signed her up for various academic online classes as well as after-school and out-of-school activities with people her own age. Now at 20, she is currently working on her second degree in Computer Engineering after earning her first one in Business Administration, the previous year.

It was already 2 PM and she was at her home study/library working on yet another module when Chunghee came in with the mail.

"Miss Sunmi, I got those packages you ordered via mail last week. I'll be putting these in your room. Also, an envelope that was addressed to you came in as well. Security already had it checked out so you can go ahead and open it." Chunghee said as she placed down a few small boxes she was carrying and handed an envelope to Sunmi.

Sunmi wondered who would be sending her mail and excitedly opened the envelope to take a look. She pulled out an invitation card. Chunghee watched as she flipped the card open and read the contents with her.

I invite you to a murder game party which will be held on September 27th.

That was the first line that Sunmi saw and she excitedly read the other details before closing it and looking at Chunghee with a big smile on her face.

"Unnie-" She started to say but Chung-hee cut her off.

"No. If you want to join that gathering, you have to ask your parents yourself. Don't drag me into this." Chung-hee already knew what her charge would ask her.

"But unnie, this invite says that it's supposed to be top secret and that I should come alone. What do I tell mom and dad so they don't worry too much and send someone to watch over me?" Sunmi whined a little as she thought about the possible scenarios in her head.
