In Na started by calling to Jin and waving her hands in his face, but he just went about the party unaware. For a while she tried to possess the other boys like a ghost, but she only fazed through them. At one point she thought she had managed to get ahold of Jimin but he had just paused because of an oncoming sneeze.
"I swear Jimin I'll get you for that," she hissed. Kicking at the boy she grumbled, "Whether you're real or not you always mess with me. I'm older than you show some respect dongsaeng."
With her failure In Na began pacing the room avoiding the boys as they ran and danced about. She didn't know how much time she had left, but every moment she spent not getting Jin to see her felt like the last before she failed for good. While Jin was messing around with a deck of cards the girl began telling their story. How they met, when he asked her out, secrets they shared. In Na was at her wits end as she relived the happy times alone.
"Four years, Oppa. We have four years of memories, but none get you to look at me. Please Jin, please hear me," she begged desperately.
She was knelt next to the table Jin was building a house of cards on with his friends gathered to watch. She was staring up at his amused, yet concentrating face willing him to see her, even if just for a second.
"I miss you. I love you. Am I not saying that enough? You know how much I miss you, how much I love you! You're the only one I've ever loved," she cried.
Her hands clenched in her lap as she lowered her head feeling the end coming. She had been there all night, her time in her world had to be coming soon. In Na knew she had failed, so she only had one thing to say.
Just as In Na bowed her head to Jin, V had knocked down the cards he had worked hard to stack, and she said, "I'm so sorry Oppa. I don't think I can help them anymore. I'm sorry."
Lifting her head to see Jin's face one last time her gaze locked with his. At first she thought it was just a fluke, that there was something behind her that he was staring at, but then the hooded figure appeared behind him.
"In Na-ya, don't cry," Jin said.
"A deal is a deal," the figure huffed.
Then the girl was back in the white room with the figure. Wiping the tears from her face she got to her feet as her heart pounded with hope.
"Did I," she began, but her excitement took away her words.
"Yes yes. Now where do you want to start your train wreck of tries? The faster we do this the sooner you'll realize that there's no happy ending here," they said.
"The accident," In Na replied.
"Someone has to die at that time," they stated.
"I know," she said ready.
"This is going to be a long trial," they sighed.
The figure clapped their hands once and In Na was no longer in the white room. She was sitting in the car with a camera in her hands and a heavy sense of dread in her core.
