"Remember what you said. If you don't fulfill your promise, I'll never forgive you." He hugged her tightly as he spoke, "I'm fine. There's no point putting the blame on anyone now after it's done. The dead can't be revived anyway."

"Then, you..." Jennie gave him a doubtful glance.

He saw her gaze and then said, "I still want to know some answers. No matter what, Suho did die in the accident, and I'm partly responsible for that. Back then, when we found out Miyeon and Sehun were leaving, Suho came to my study room. Of course, I want to hold them accountable, but even more so, I want to know Suho's reason for doing it. That's why I want Ryujin to bring them all back."

"After all that's happened, now that I think about it, Suho's relationship with Miyeon wouldn't have just been friends. I guess that he probably fell in love with Miyeon. That's the reason why he betrayed me. There are only several drivers behind behaviors: money, love, revenge."

"But, if that's the case, why would Suho help Sehun? Sehun would be Suho's love rival, but many investigations led to the conclusion that Suho respected Sehun a lot. He even called him Bro Feng. Don't you think it's odd? I think your opinion is a little out of place," Jennie frowned and voiced out her doubts.

"You probably underestimated Sehun's psychological tactics. While Suho rarely sees me, it's obvious that he's an innocent person. He'd give it his all to help someone he trusts. He's kind of introverted and disliked hanging out with Moonbyul and the others. However, he liked to spend time with Miyeon," Lisa said.

Jennie took a deep breath and gave it some thought. "If that's the case, then I can understand why people who aren't close to you would feel pressured by your coldness, but Miyeon and the others are different. Jisoo was with them as well. He must have felt relaxed and happy. It's very important for a lonely person."

Jennie felt it was relatable. After Ye-Jin divorced Xu Hyunbin, she started to isolate herself. She isolated herself from the other students, but then she saw Naeyon's cheerfulness and longed for it. She wanted to protect that warmth and happiness.

Naeyon and Jeongyeon always held a special place in her heart. Her memories with them were precious.

Now, she could understand what Suho was feeling.

"Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. Since we're out, let's go somewhere. We'll go back after noon. Do you have anywhere you want to go?" Lisa interrupted her train of thought and said.

Jennie glanced at him and noticed that his expression had returned to his usual calmness. She took a deep breath and said, "Hmm... Then, let's go to the orphanage to take a look. It's been a while since I visited. By the way, is there any news about the child adoption?"

"Not yet. We need to be cautious about this. Let's go and take a look."

...

The orphanage looked totally different now. Since Krystal's incident, this place had caught the attention of many charity organizations. Lisa also took Jennie's suggestion of setting up a Glory World Charity Fund, and this orphanage was one of its beneficiaries.

Many people chipped into the fund following Glory World's lead, so it had grown by a large scale now and held a certain amount of influence when dealing with the government.

The rusted fence had already been replaced anew. From the outside, they could see the progress of the construction going on inside. The outdoor field had been worked on as well. There was now a basketball court and football court. There was also a new flower bed with some freshly bloomed chrysanthemums.

Lisa put his arm over Jennie's shoulder as they walked past the trees. They watched the children play games and basketball.

Jennie was touched by the innocent smiles on their faces. She started smiling and looked at him. "There are more kids there now. Each and every child are angels sent down by God. No matter what, they deserve a warm and happy childhood."

He did not reply. Instead, he looked at her baby bump. "In a few months' time, this little thing will be out."

Jennie looked downward and nodded with a smile. "I can't wait, little watermelon..."

Lisa also smiled as he held her tighter. When he was about to say something, she saw something white flash past her eyes. Jennie looked over and noticed it was a white volleyball.

The ball slowly rolled over and stopped as it bumped against the staircase.

A small white hand went to grab it.

It was a cute little boy!

He wore a clean suit and had neatly combed hair. With his big, starry eyes, he seemed pretty quiet for his age. He seemed to be around four or five years old.

He silently sat on the staircase and pushed the ball around. His small, lonely figure did not seem to fit into the group of rowdy children.

He was holding a black, expensive-looking harmonica in the other hand. He held it closer to his lips and soon a melody came out. It was a song Jennie was familiar with, "Spirited Away".

After listening to it for a while, Jennie could not help but walk towards the little boy.

The little boy stopped when he saw someone in front of him. The melody was interrupted as he peered down at the shadow. He raised his head slowly and looked at the beautiful lady that had suddenly appeared before him.
