this chapter isn't that good, it's sort of a filler, but not really LOL

the girls face drops, her eyes darkening. "what're you talking about Mr. Baek. I'm Ms. Seo. Get your head on right." jaehwa turns her body away from Joo Dan Tae, forgetting about the body on the floor.

she feels the buzzing of her phone, and grabs it, checking her notifications. she sighs, realizing they were just emails for business.

jaehwa's heels clack against the cold tile floor, her mind going back to what had happened.

Joo Dan Tae... stabbing Bae Rona in the head. Joo Dan Tae killed Bae Rona.

or was it Eunbyeol?... it couldn't have been Eunbyeol. Eunbyeol only struck the poor girl in the neck, that couldn't be enough to kill Rona.

She sighs, walking back up the stairs. She takes her phone out, quick to text Aera.

me
hey i was outside
and you weren't there
what did you need ?
seen

jaehwa pouts, but puts her phone away. she makes her way back to her seat next to her grandmother, forgetting the situation that Joo Dan Tae had put her in.

The body will be found sooner or later... Jaehwa didn't let it sit within her. Rona had... deserved it.

After all the problems she had caused within her family, always complaining about the people around her. never having the "perfect" life.

she deserved it... jaehwa repeated it to herself so many times, it felt like she was gonna go crazy.

the image of rona rolling down the stairs.

the happy glisten that came out of Eunbyeol's eyes.

the smirk that joo dan tae gave her.

the image was too vivid, just sitting on the top of her head. the clapping had brought her back, jaehwa looking at the stage.

cheon seojin stood in the middle, an envelope in her hand. the envelope that held the final results for tonight's festival. who would be winning the trophy, after 25 years.

the tenseness in the room was thick, everyone on the edge of their seats.

Aera somewhere in the back pacing around.

Jumin searching for Rona.

Eunbyeol quickly trying to get away, trying to forget that she had done anything in the first place.

Seokkyung kept the smile on her face, still believing she would win in the long run. she would be winning the trophy.

Seokhoon had stood behind his sister, peering out of the curtains ever so often. he was bored, wanting the festival to end so he could see jaehwa again.

"the winner of the daesang goes to..." the nervousness grew, as did the quite atmosphere. everyone was on their tippy toes.

"bae rona." cheon seojin stated out into the audience, her eyes tearing a bit. oh yoon hee smiled, her hands going straight to her mouth.

ha yoonchul also looked surprised, but in the end was happy for the girl. kang mari applauded for the Bae, waiting for her to step out on the stage.

it grew quite, people still waiting for the winner to walk out. cheon seojin's eyebrows scrunched, and was about to announce the name again.

But a man barged into the auditorium, one of the nice janitors. "there's a body outside!!!" he screamed, gaining the attention of everyone around them.

jaehwa's eyes widen, and she sees a few people start exiting the building, wanting to see the commotion outside.

she stands up, but her grandma holds her down, not wanting her to also join the commotion. Jaehwa sighs, frustrated.

she could've helped rona, but instead her selfish ways had gotten in the way of that. jaehwa knew she had to stop pretending that ha yoonchul still cared for her.

just because rona is dead would mean nothing. he still disowned her. jaehwa stands up, ignoring her grandmother's request.

she quickly walked down the stairs, not wanting to trip. she makes her way outside, squeezing through the crowd.

there she was. bae rona. covered in her own blood. the wing of the trophy sticking out of her head.

oh yoon hee was quick to run down the stairs, almost failing to notice that it was her daughter.

jaehwa felt a presence behind her, turning around. "are you ok?" jaehwa nods, turning of away from seokhoon.

jaehwa turned back towards the family sitting at the stairs, not wanting to draw attention to herself.

"rona yah, rona? rona open your eyes, please. mommy is here..." yoon hee was barely able to stutter, and yoonchul had noticed this.

he sighed, and proceeded to shout, "what are all of you doing!? someone call 119!" jenny's mom took out her phone, quickly dialing for an ambulance.

then, a loud ringing had started happening. the fire alarm. people started pushing, wanting to get away from the "burning" building.

they all exited going down the stairs, and what jaehwa failed to noticed was jumin trying to still protect rona's lifeless body.

someone had pushed her too hard, but seokhoon was quick to grab on to her waist, allowing her to steady.

what jaehwa didn't fail to catch, was eunbyeol. eunbyeol running away like a criminal.

she technically was a criminally, seeing as she had committed bodily harm, but besides the point.

the two made eye contact, but eunbyeol still ran away, trying to get as far away as possible. 

jaehwa turned back to the commotion, her face regretful.

it was all her fault. if she had just stopped joo dan tae, none of this would happen.

rona didn't deserve it. it was a lie she had placed so she wouldn't feel bad. jaehwa picked at her lip, but seokhoon was quick to stop her.

"hey what's wrong? i know you're anxious, but don't mess with your lips. she'll be fine." jaehwa looked from seokhoon to the body still laying on the floor, and back to seokhoon.

"i'm gonna tell you something, but you can't tell anyone else, you promise?" seokhoon nods, the two locking pinkies.

their pinkies stay locked, and their hands drop to the sides. the sound of the ambulance finally arriving came from the distance, the school clearing.

someone would be blamed, and jaehwa knew for sure she would be one of top people to put the blame on.
