031: PROLOGUE TO SHATTERED LIVES



Eun-bi pov:



Two weeks of peace.



All the cases have been moving peacefully.



And it is because it's moving peacefully that I'm worried.



Logan assured me they won't be getting out any time soon.



I moved back to mom and dad's place for a while.



Mom's been busy as the chairwoman, and dad's been busy as the new president of the pharmaceutix.



While I've been busy getting dragged to fashion shows by Seok-kyung.



'I think Seok-kyung will take fashion designs instead of music in college while Seok-hoon is showing interest in law.'



They've been asking me if I'm proceeding with music. I silence myself when Seok-kyung asks me questions about our college life since I'm already enrolled in a college. To be exact, I'm enrolled in Standford University.



"Eun-byeol ah. . ."



"Eun-byeol. . . ."



I snapped from my trance and faced Seok-kyung, who looked at me as if I were a different person.



"Is something wrong?"



She asks worriedly.



I shook my head.



"I guess I'm still feeling our suspension . . . ." I joked.



Our suspension became a mini vacation for us.



Instead of actually showing remorse for the brawl, we've been shopping, going to concerts, and fashion shows. It never even crossed my mind that we're being suspended.



The other kids are busy, though. Both Min-hyuk and Jenny have been supporting their parents through the trial. I haven't been speaking to Jenny. I don't think it's the right thing to do as well.



I've been following their trials closely. Ma-ri and Min-hyuk's parents have a lighter case so they can be released earlier than expected. Oh Yoon-hee will be spending a long time in prison. By the time Joo Dan-tae is released from jail, both Seok-hoon and Seok-kyung will be adults, so they no longer need Joo Dan-tae as a legal guardian.



As I remember grandpa, I kept glaring at nothing by impulse.



'I will make sure you rot in jail, Oh Yoon-hee!'



I was deep in thoughts when I felt Seok-hoon's embrace from behind. He snaked his hands around me and placed his chin on my shoulder.



"Are you okay?"



I smiled at him as he placed a kiss on my cheek.



I leaned on his head and closed my eyes, "Just sleepy. . ."
