No One Can Get Away With It - Penthouse

14 - Promise

Taewon put his arm safely around Yeona and moved her forward, going towards the elevator together. Behind them walked Yunhee, Rona and Chaeyeong happy to have won the upper hand. The families entered the elevator and talked on the way.

"Sorry I couldn't get you a higher level apartment," Taewon said looking at Yunhee with apologetic eyes.

"What are you talking about? This is plenty, I am meeting with Suryeon right now but I'll text you later about the information," Yunhee bowed to him and walked off with her daughter.

"What information?" Yeona asked.

"Its nothing, lets get you inside," Taewon brushed the subject away and walked towards their own apartment. 

Yeona entered first, hugging Seola seeing that she was safe inside with Kiyeon. He placed his arm around his sister whispering jokes about Dantae's face when he saw their uncle. Chaeyeong sat down opposite her son and Seola and handed over some drinks for the kids. Taewon took a look around and a photo stuck out. Taewon and his brother playing around with their wives. Taewon doesn't even know where his wife is at the moment. Since the incident, there has been no contact between the two, absolute none. He turned around to the three kids and painted on a gentle smile.

"Now Seola, I know that you have just been released, but I need to know, did you fall on the Hera Statue?" Taewon questioned Seola making her think deeply inside her memories.

"Well obviously she fell there we saw her-" Kiyeon started but got caught off by his uncles hand, telling him to be quiet.

"I do remember falling onto the statue yes, but I don't understand how I lived and I am so well right now," She said confused. Kiyeon looked at his uncle telling him to not go further seeing how it made her head hurt from confusion. Seola excused herself to go to the bathroom, a maid escorting her there. 

"As much as I want you guys to be safe and sound at home, from tomorrow you will need to face Cheongah again, I have looked at articles and there have been many rumours about you two so please be careful," Chaeyeon ruffled Kiyeon's hair, and looked at Yeona admiring her. They siblings both nodded, understanding their mother's concern. Taewon went off to his Law Firm as he hasn't been there for two years. Chaeyeon told the kids to get ready for bed and that all their tutoring will resume back to normal. Yeona and Kiyeon went inside their room and lounged around. Seola entered the room getting help from Kiyeon to sit down.

"Where will I be staying?" Seola asked innocently looking at the siblings. 

"It will be easier if you stay with us, if you feel comfortable you can share my bed as I don't feel exactly happy you sharing a bed with my brother," Yeona joked but only earned a pillow to the face by her brother. 

Hours went by and Seola has fallen asleep on the bed leaving only Yeona and Kiyeon awake in the house. They exited their bedroom, letting Seola sleep all she wants. 

As they walked out they saw their uncle, Taewon sitting at the dinner table with a bottle of alcohol drinking while staring at a photo frame with him and his brother. Kiyeon dragged Yeona to their practise room and sat down in silence for a while.

"Will we succeed? We haven't gotten anyway, all we did was harm more people than we saved," Yeona spoke looking down, away from Kiyeon. He sighed, annoyed by her attitude.

"If you think you were going to fail, why are we doing this? We came here because we know we will win no matter what, think about father," Kiyeon said making his way next to her. He wasn't sure himself if they will make it through especially since they are not in the good books of the Hera Parents, but if it meant he can assure his sister even slightly then it is fine by him. Yeona smiled and looked up at his brother. 

"You're right, we have all the time to put everything in their place, the only question will be how will we do it correctly," Yeona said standing up and showing her necklace. Kiyeon looked at it curiously. 

"This is what father made, before he passed away he gave me this locket saying it will save me in time," Yeona fidgeted with it can turned to her brother who was even more invested in the shape of it.

It wasn't a normal lock and key, it was thin and shaped in a triangle. It had silver specks and light gold chain making it stick out. 

"Its a camera, I guess father already saw everything coming, his death, our revenge, the problems that will be caused, he probably knew that one day I will need factual evidence if I want to make the revenge successful," She said staring at the mirror. In her imagination, she saw her father standing looking at her with the admiring eyes that got rid of any trouble that came across. Nothing could harm her if he was there, the problem is that he isn't there to protect her anymore. That why God sent over his brother as a guardian angel, if her father can't protect her, then his brother will, if he can't they will just send someone else. No matter what, the Jung siblings will be protected.

Kiyeon smiled and took out a bracelet. It was similar to the necklace. Silver triangular specks and gold chains wrapped around the wrist. 

"I think father did have that idea, this is an audio recorder," Kiyeon said showing her the tiny dot that was a recorder. He was a genius. 

"Even he saw that he will die, why couldn't we prevented it or stopped it," Yeona said falling on the sofa. Kiyeon crouched down rubbing his hand on her back, hoping it will comfort her. 

"If we protected everyone who got hurt by Ju Dantae or Cheon Seojin or anyone here at the Hera Palace, we wouldn't be living, we would just be existing for the purpose of others, we are humans, we have feelings and the burn to save someone, but we need to think rationally, we need to think and go on the path of avenging our fathers death," Kiyeon explained calmly. Yeona stood up and hugged him tightly wrapping her arms around him.

"I know this will sound selfish, I know you are fond of Seola, but please don't you ever get yourself hurt or killed because you tried to save her, I can't lose my brother, Kiyeon ah," She felt her eyes become teary and her heart dropping. She can't be there to save the day like her brother, but all she wants is to be beside her brother, always. The moment Yeon loses Kiyeon, it will be the end of her life. If Kiyeon didn't live on for Yeona, and if Yeona didn't live on for Kiyeon, they wouldn't have been here today. Someone needs to show the truth of the Hera tragedy.

"I promise Yeona, I will never leave you or get hurt from now on, we are in this together,"
