Jaehwa sat on the couch of the hotel room, sucking on the popsicle that Logan had given her earlier that day. Life felt calmer now that everything big was over with. She usually sat around waiting for Logan to ask her to do something, or for Sim Su Ryeon to pressure her about going to school.

"Ayo Jaehwa, pack your stuff. Were gonna leave in three days tops." The girl turns around, facing Logan. She nods, getting off of the couch, and shuffling towards the kitchen.

She throws away the popsicle stick that had been poorly bitten, and makes her way to her room, that was soon to be abandoned.

Jaehwa knew of what was going to happen of course. With everything that the three had caused, staying in Korea made no sense. She knew that if she stayed here she would most likely get murdered, and we wouldn't want that.

She grabbed pieces of clothing that she had tossed to the side because she was too lazy to fold them herself, and finally started to fold them. The pieces of clothing that she had first brought with her from the time where she had ran away, and a few pieces Logan had given her in the span of time she had been here.

She placed it all in the luggage she had brought, throwing out the uniform that she had worn to Cheong A, she wouldn't be needing it anyways. She walked over to the bathroom, grabbing the toothbrush and throwing it in the trash can.

It was old anyways, she would have to replace it sooner or later. She grabbed the small bag of necessities that she had first brought and stuffed everything back into the water-proof bag. She brings the bag out of the restroom, placing it into the luggage.

She closes up the luggage, placing her weight on it so it zips up all the way. "Man. That was more tiring than I expected it to be. I need to exercise more." She jumps on her bed, throwing away the idea.

She picks up her phone, going over the missed messages she had, the guilt had gotten to her over time, and she finally opened the most recent ones on kakao, even if some of them were from a few days ago.

The text from Seokhoon was from two days ago, and Jaehwa didn't want to believe that he was still waiting there. She didn't want to get her hopes up one more time.

She was upset that Jumin hadn't texted her either, but from the decision she made a few nights ago, she didn't think he wanted to text her ever again.

"Ah what type of... siri. flip a coin." tails was her choice. If it lands on tails she'll go. Why was she letting her phone decide? No idea.

She waited for her phone to process what she said and she laid it on her stomach. "It's tails." She sat up, staring at her phone. The little text at the bottom obviously said it's tails.

"...does my phone know what I'm going through right now? Ah whatever, I don't have to leave until 8:30 anyways." She threw her phone to the side, turning on her stomach. She'd rather think over the fact that she'd be leaving to America tomorrow than having to see her ex in the next 6 hours.

A knock on her door disturbed her, and she looked up, spotting Sim Su Ryeon. "Ah, yes?" She sat up, looking at the older woman.

"Logan said he'd be taking you to disturb Joo Dan Tae one last time, before you leave ." Jaehwa got out of her bed, tilting her head.

"I thought you were coming with us." Su Ryeon shook her head.

"I'll most likely be staying here, I have a business and kids I still need to take care of." Jaehwa shakes her head.

"But that means Joo Dan Tae has a more likely chance of finding and hurting you, you should think it through again, just in case. " The older woman smiles, and comforts Jaehwa.

"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. You stay safe having to deal with everything." The lady hugs her, and pats her back, allowing Jaehwa to walk through the door to meet Logan at the front.

"You ready?" She sighs, and nods, following Logan out of the hotel room.

'Wait so why did you bring me? I feel like you could've done this by yourself." The two walk over to the escalators, Jaehwa walking to the left of Logan.

"I thought you'd want to embarrass someone before we leave ya know. You've been stuck in the hotel for two days because SuRyeon and I were worried that someone would try murdering you." Jaehwa steps on the escalator behind Logan, raising her eyebrow.

"Then why are you brining me to the persecutor?" Logan shushes her, and the two wait for the escalator to take them down, a crowd forming to the bottom right of her.

"Is that him?" She sees him nod his head, and the screams and crowd just continued to get bigger.

"Let me go! I didn't do anything! Bring Logan Lee right now!" We stepped off of the escalator, meeting face to face with Joo Dan Tae.

"Logan, perfect timing, there seems to be a misunderstanding. Please resolve this ridiculous situaion." Logan, who had been covering Jaehwa with his body, laughs, sticking his hands into his pocket.

"You still don't get it now, huh, Mr. Joo. The person that sued you is me, Mr. Joo Dan Tae." Jaehwa steps around Logan, making eye contact with the older man.

"What? what did you just say?" Joo Dan Tae broke eye contact with Jaehwa, ignoring her presence.

Logan sighs, shaking his head. "I said, I sued you." The two have a stare off, and Joo Dan Tae starts getting dragged off again. The two watch as he screams and thrashes. Logan turns to Jaehwa, raising his eyebrow.

"Why do you seem so tense? Something on your mind?" Jaehwa turns to Logan, the black in her eyes filled with nothing but regret.

"Can you drive me to Hera Palace? One last time?
