My Downfall | Killers List #3

Satoyuki

"Sowon wake up, we're here" Eunha spoke softly. She didn't want to startle her.

"Hm?" Sowon groaned as she lifted her head up. "Oh. Thanks" Sowon grabbed her bag and her new pair of clothes.

"When do your classes start?"

"My first class is at 7:00am" she yawned and looked at the time.

"Then why do you get up at 2:30am? It's only 6:24am"

"I usually have stuff to do before my class starts. Sometimes I just talk to Kim" Sowon shrugged.

"Oh you're still seeing each other?"

"No" Sowon laughed. "We never were seeing each other. It was all fake" she admitted.

"Why?"

"I'm not sure, Eunha. I guess I just didn't want to seem...lonely" Sowon weakly smiled while she got out of the car.

"Thanks" Sowon shut the door and walked towards the building.

It was still dark outside because it was so early in the morning, but it wasn't dark enough to were you couldn't see peoples faces or clothes. Eunha watched as other students pointed at Sowon and laughed at her clothes and because she wasn't wearing any make up and looked extremely exhausted. Sowon couldn't do much about it but it was hard to ignore them. She just sent glares their way as she walked by them.

"Where have you been?" Yerin questioned Eunha the second she opened the door and walked inside.

"I was taking Sowon to college" Eunha furrowed her eyebrows. She took her shoes off and set them by the door and then set her keys on the table.

"It's doesn't take three hours to get someone to school. You're lying to me, why?" Yerin crossed her arms over her chest. She wasn't going to leave until she got the entire truth, and only the truth, nothing more and nothing less.

"It takes three hours to drive her there and another three hours to get back" Eunha fired back. She didn't understand why Yerin didn't believe her. Was she really not that trustworthy anymore?

"There's a college a few miles away. Don't lie to me" Yerin had a look of disappointment.

"She goes to a cooking college. The college down there is only a regular college that doesn't involve cooking" Eunha was getting a bit frustrated. She hated having to explain herself for no reason.

"Oh yeah? Prove it to me then" Yerin raised her eyebrows. She had a bit of a sassy expression.

"No. I'm not driving there for three hours and another three back. If you really wanna know that bad then you can go, but I'm not" Now Eunha was upset that Yerin was being so difficult with her.

"No thanks. I believe you" Yerin shrugged and walked away.

"Did I hear an argument?" Yuju's head popped out from behind the stairs. She looked very interested in what had been said.

"We weren't arguing, just talking" Eunha didn't want to let Yerin ruin her mood for the day but it was hard not to.

"I studied to be a lawyer. Debates are kind of my thing, you know?" Yuju delightfully smiled.

"We get it, Yuju! You and Sowon went to college! You're so much better than us! Oh well!" Eunha threw her hands up in the air. Her sudden attitude startled Yuju. Maybe she was just tired from getting no sleep and then having to drive Sowon to college.

"Well, I mean I didn't think of it like that but I guess you might be right" Yuju shrugged. She didn't want to be around Eunha's negativity so she left and went to the living room where Yerin was at.

"Are we doing anything today?" Umji suddenly appeared in the kitchen, searching for food in the fridge.

"I don't think so, why?" Yerin asked. She grabbed the remote and turned the tv on.

"Nothing. Is it ok if I take the car for awhile? Eunha has her car still so if you guys need to go anywhere then you can just take her car or she can drive you to wherever you need to go" Umji closed the fridge, feeling a bit disappointed at Eunha's lack of food.

"Well I'm gonna go to the grocery store, does anyone want to come?" Eunha asked. She hoped someone would want to go with her. She didn't want to be alone.

"I'll go with you" Yuju smiled. She was excited. She was a very optimistic woman. She was always excited about stuff.

"Great" Eunha returned the smile.

"I'll see you guys later then" Umji glanced over at the oblivious group of girls. She felt guilty for going behind their back—for not telling them what she was up to. She wasn't necessarily going behind their back. Besides, what she was going to do was going to benefit all of them.

Umji anxiously walked towards the building. A man stood by the door waiting for her. Once she was a few feet away he greeted her and opened the door. She smiled at him and took a few steps inside the building. The man walked in behind her and locked the door.

"Follow me" his voice was very deep. Umji quietly and nervously followed his every step.

"Sir, she's here to see you" he peeked into the room and warned him of her presence.

"Come in" the man behind the desk put his feet on the floor and straightened his back. Umji was then welcomed into the room.

"Satoyuki, it's a pleasure to finally meet you" Umji held out her hand for him to shake while she bowed at a ninety degree angle.

"Kim Yewon, welcome" he smiled and gestured for her to have a seat.
