"Sir, it's been three weeks. Have you not found any clues yet?" Jisu asked.

"We are trying, Ms Choi. Please be patient, we-"

"How long do I have to wait?? Until she's found dead?! It's been three weeks, Sir, three damn weeks! There's no sign of her anywhere here so why won't you guys search for her somewhere farther?!" Jisu yelled and ended the call.

The lady sighed in frustration, dropping her head on her palm, her brows creased. She'd worried too much in the past few weeks, adding up to there being no one there to let her feel relieved, she's getting extremely stressed and she can't sleep well through all the nights.

Jisu went upstairs to her bedroom, locking herself in there and she threw the phone on the bed when she reached the bed. Burying her face onto the pillow, she cried, again. When she lifted her head to look at the ring on her finger, she burst into tears.

"Y-You're a liar... S-Seonju-ah. Liar." she stuttered, her brows furrowed and she swallowed a lump in her throat before continuing her sentence, "I waited for s-so long. Y-You said you'll t-talk to my dad, and... *sobs* a-and we'll date once h-he approves! You're a damn liar."

"You liar..." Jisu punched the pillow.

"Liar." she punched again.

"Liar, liar, liar! You— Fuck!!" she yelled.

Her eyes were swollen and welled up in tears, hair was dishevelled. She looked like a mess. She just feels so, so lost.

It has been pressuring the officers in charge of this case. They had moments where they planned to just cover this case up with a fake excuse, but Officer washed away the thought.

„Lee Hyun's death and the case of his daughter are most definitely connected...‟
