"Everyone has a secret"

THEA SEEMED SO immersed in her own thoughts that she struggled to pay attention to what was happening around her. The pink plastic gloves remained on her hands as she helped Ms. Chu cut the vegetables for the Kimchi but her mind seemed to be somewhere else.

"Why are you making so much kimchi if we're only doing takeout?" Mo-tak complained as he was forced to cut the other half of the vegetables

"We still need to make kimchi for winter" Ms. Chu responded mixing the mixture on the plastic fret in front of her "Whats wrong?" She asked when Mo-tak suddenly moaned in pain holding his head

"My memories" He responded still holding his head with both of his hands

"Goodness, don't rush it. You've gotten started, so you'll remember everything soon" Ms. Chu asked

"It's just frustrating. I... damn it" He moaned again "I definitely remember that I was stabbed with a knife. But that means I must have found some kind of evidence. And that is..." Everyone stared at him waiting for an answer "What I don't remember" He added quietly before abruptly raising his voice "Because of that evidence... Su-ryong..." He opened his eyes and mouth wide when he realized something

"Yes. What?" Ms. Chu asked, standing up from her seat impatiently

"Su-ryong..." He pointed his finger but nothing came out of his mouth "Damn it, this is so frustrating" he complained like a little child

"Forget it, okay?" Ms. Chu asked with a frown

"Darn it" Mo-tak began to roughly chop the vegetable without a bit of desire to do so

"Do you want help?" Hana asked him, noticing how frustrated he was because he couldn't put his memories in order

"How?" Mo-tak questioned looking at her with a serious face, surely without any hope left

"First off, your memories began to come back to you when you fought Ji Cheong-sin" Hana began to say, summarizing what he had said a few moments ago

"Yes" Mo-tak nodded his head

"And you said those memories are in pieces. I Can help you bring those back..." She began to put the pieces of the vegetable in front of her back into place "Into a whole piece"

"That's how we pieced together Mun's memories. That's how we found Ji Cheong-sin" Thea added, putting the knife aside in her hands and then taking the last cube of vegetables in front of Mo-tak and putting it where it belonged "From his subconscious memories" Mo-tak gasped in amazement watching as the brown-haired girl picked up her knife once again
