"My story was a monotonous canvas, until he appeared and splashed it with so many colors that I could hardly see the gray background anymore."

"I was- I was returning from my best friend's house when these guys came in front and stopped me in the middle of the way, they kept asking me to come with me but I said no and then he forced me- the one with ash grey hair. He held my hair in his fit and slapped me thrice before he started to tear my clothes then and there." Haneul was merely a seventeen year old teenager, one of the safest cities in the world was witnessing an attempt to gang rape case. Not like it was a new thing, South korea went from one of the poorest to one of the most developed nations, sadly enough the society couldn't just keep up with it. Misogyny, gender gap (and etc) shined and gleamed.
Meanwhile Daehye was licking her previously bleeding lip, "what were you doing at a secluded area and why were you wearing such short clothes? You were just there to meet your friend if I'm not wrong." officer Choi spoke and Daehye had a disgusted scoff covering her face.
"In the middle of July you don't expect us to wear full covered woolen trousers or do you?" she manspreaded and kept her kept her arms on her thighs before crossing her legs and keeping her handcuffed hands on her lap.
"And why are we handcuffed? What I did was for self defence and this girl right here- she's innocent. Haneul, call your parents." Daehye first passed dagger-like glares to officer Choi and gritted her teeth before turning to Haneul whose face was covered with bruises, about to pick up the landline she was interrupted by a ring.
"May I pick up the call?" Daehye asked tiredly and flipped her hair. Rather than letting her pick the call one of the police assistants opened her clutch and put the phone on speaker. "Dae it's been a few minutes since I reached, your car is here but you're nowhere to be seen." Jimin's voice echoed and the whole police station had their attention focused on that table.
"I'm at the Seoul metropolitan police station." Daehye spoke and everything fell silent anew, "I'll be there in a few." the raspy voice sounded panicky and without wasting a single second the call was cut and most probably Jimin was now running downstairs.
"Sir the report from the hospital is here." a junior police trainee handed a tablet to the senior in the room, it was most probably the three men whose report kicked in.
"One has his elbow completely dislocated, one has excessive bleeding from his head due to getting slammed on a hard surface and the last one has his nose dislocated, also all of their eyes are temporarily out of function." Other than feeling guilty a proud sug formed on Daehye's face and meanwhile Haneul looked at her "waah unnie."
"The victim has multiple cuts on her arms and legs but rather than getting even a first aid treatment she's here for questioning waiting for her parents. That's splendid." Daehye snapped back and had a pursed smile on her face, sarcastic on another level.
"Do you have any idea if i or someone else was not there then what would've happened? The headlines of tomorrow and a few more days could have been occupied with this news flashing," she continued and just that moment the glass gate behind opened, the click of shoes whipped all the heads in his direction
