The sun was shining brightly, when Officer Pol arrived at the funpark once again. There still were these familiar noises, the screaming of kids, the laughter of the people. The atmosphere was as it was supposed to be in such a place. People are supposed to calm down, have fun, enjoy their free time.
And still, someone tried to destroy the peace...

Mr. Pol passed some ice-cream vendors, and let his eyes slowly wander over the crowd.
There was nothing, that seemed suspective to his trained eye, so he moved over to the waterslide.

Suddenly he heard an electric buzzing through loudspeakers that were spread over the whole park.

Someone would be giving an announcement. The visitors of the park curiously looked around.

"Dear visitors. Due to a fire emergency, you should all leave the park immediately. The fire will destroy the whole park within minutes, so you should hurry.
Thankyou"

Where there had been peaceful conversations, there were scared yells being heard. Where there were people casually strolling around, thousands of feet stamped on the ground.

The police officer suddenly found himself in a panicing crowd, and all his desperate tries to calm everyone down, didn't help at all.

If he didn't want to get stamped into the ground, he had to run with the crowd. When Officer Pol was pushed into the direction, where the exit of the park is.

He had almost dripped over a person, that was lying under the feet of the people. They just were panicing about there own lives, and didn't notice, what kind of severe consequences this would have.

It was a beautiful girl with hazelnut hair, and her face was covered with blood. The Officer didn't hesitate to lift her up from the floor and carry her with him.

After he had left the park, he noticed who he was actually holding in his hands. It was Tzuyu, the girl he had met the day before.

Some collegues of Officer Pol appeared next to him, and he ordered to find out, who made the wrong announcement, because apperantly not a little flame could be found in the whole park.

Did someone try to sabotage the funpark?

He himself decided that it was more important to bring the girl in his arms home, as the bleeding still hadn't stopped.

He placed her in his car next to her and drove carefully away from the funpark. Quietly he began talking with her, to find out, where he should bring her, and she opened her eyes slowly.

"My parents are not at home and I have no key."

Pol frowned his forehead worriedly.

"Is it ok for you to stay at my place for this night?"

The girl was too weak to answer but she managed to nod her head slightly.

When Pol had offered Tzuyu a seat around his table, he went into the kitchen to get some wine.

"Wine is good for your health."

She stared at him in disbelief, but afterwards took the glass and eagerly allowed the young man to patch her face up.

He cleaned and bandaged her wounds so carefully, as if he was touching nothing but extremly thin glass.

She couldn't help but smile amused, when he was startling up, from a little flinching in her arm.

"Did it hurt much?"

"Not really, I just..."

She stopped in her sentence, and reminded herself, that it was not intelligent to tell him about the shivers, his cold skin causes.

To change the topic, she started talking with him about the job and the announcement in the funpark today.

Pol told her, that he supposed, that someone wanted to sabotage the park.

"I know the voice...."

Thunderstruck, Officer Pol looked up from the bandage and glanced at her surprised.

"Who is it?"

"I don't know, I once talked to him I think."

"Do you think you can manage to find out where and when you heard this voice?"

"Sure, but it will take me a while."

Soyi P.o.V

It had taken a long while to film this scene and afterwards I justed wanted to see my bed.
Unfortunately, our director values cooperation and friendship, with one's collegues, and so he always insisted on an hour freetime after the filming, where we could have time for us and our collegues.
I decided to use this time and get myself some food, to stop the annoying growling in my tummy.

I was chewing my bread halfheartedly, when suddenly Taehyung walked in and took place next to me. I didn't know if I should feel uncomfortable or be happy that I wasn't alone anymore.

"You look tired."

I nodded once, then again.
It suddenly bursted all out of me, the words rushed out of my mouth like crazy.

I told him everything that was bothering me, just because I had no one else to talk to.
Gladly I noticed his carefully listening nods, when I told him about my two parttime jobs, and the stress they caused.

I also mentioned my sister one time, when I talked about my mother, who didn't find a job since her death.
And as my dad was unemployed too, I was the one who had to care for our family.

"Your family must be really thankful to have you. But still you have to take care of yourself too, please don't over work yourself."

"Actually... We never really talked about it, my parents take it for granted, that I earn their money. I have no choice."

After he had built me up with encouraging words I asked him to tell me something about his life.

He was very similar to me in some points.

He was as an example as stressed as I was, especially with the interviews he had to do. What was also similar to my life was, that he also lost a family member. His mother had died in a car crash when he was little.

The two of us talked for a long time after this, and our conversations got funnier and more relaxed after some time, so we didn't even notice that the lights went out one time, and everyone around us was screaming, and we also didn't think of going home, after one hour.

It was the first time in a long while that I felt so happy and important next to someone.

He gave me the feeling that I'm precious.
