Chaeyoung and Suga rushed to Jihyo's mother's house to verify their suspicions. A strange occurrence had unnerved them both: Jihyo had seemingly met Suga at the time of the concert while being elsewhere simultaneously. It sent chills down their spines and left them anticipating more unsettling revelations.
Standing before the door, both of them felt nervous about what awaited them inside. Chaeyoung's hand trembled as she hesitantly pressed the doorbell, and they were greeted by the voice of an elderly woman through the intercom.
"Hello, this is Chaeyoung. I came to meet you"
The silence hung heavy, a somber stillness that only deepened Chaeyoung's growing apprehension. She chose her words carefully, hoping to persuade Jihyo's mother to unlock the door. But before she could speak further, the door creaked open, revealing Jihyo's mother with a pale face and a hesitant look.
"Chaeyoung-ah, is something wrong?" The lady said
"I know you wouldn't want to see me but we need to talk" Chaeyoung said
"Come inside"
With trembling hands, she opened the door and welcomed them inside, an action that left them feeling uneasy. They settled onto the couch, each quietly savoring the calm before the impending storm.
"I was at the detention centre. I- I met Jihyo" Chaeyoung broke the silence.
"What did she say?" the mother asked abruptly.
"We made a deal. I'll drop the charges if she releases a public apology and tells everyone about the whole story"
"NO DON'T!!" the mother yelled abruptly then looked down when she realised she overreacted "I- I mean you don't have to do that"
"Is there anything you need to tell me?" Chaeyoung frowned " I have lived with Jihyo for ten years and I could tell that it wasn't her at the detention centre"
"W-what do you mean?"
"Is Jihyo here? I mean the real Jihyo not the one in jail" Chaeyoung decided that it was no use to keep beating around the bush "Just tell me the truth I beg you"
"Why does it matter to you?" the mother said in surrender "the one that hurt you is in jail, you should be happy"
"How would I be happy when my teammate is somewhere bearing the consequences of someone else's deed" Chaeyoung snapped, she couldn't take it anymore "I said where is she?"
Fit to be tied, Chaeyoung stomped stood and headed towards the nearest room. She swung open the door only to be met with a sight that made her heart ache and tears flow uncontrollably. Stunned, she took a step back, hand over her mouth, as the shocking scene unfolded before her. Suga leaped up from his seat and hurried after her.
"Chaeyoung, what's happened?" he asked, gripping her shoulders, then following her gaze. "Oh my God! What in the world!"
