To cut things short I basically ended up in the deserted apartment due to my suspicions after seeing Jongho running out of the hospital like a maniac. I was of course scared to my bones in this place. Who knows a ghost or zombie might pop out. However, I want to find out who Jongho is as that might be connected to the car who may be Suzy's or not.

"Jongho where are you?" I stealthily walked around the apartment avoiding any altercations with any one other than Jongho.

Just like the last meeting place where Jongho went to this abandoned building raised questions. There has to be a reason why he keeps on going to places like this. Unless you are an adrenaline junkie or a ghost hunter there is really no other reason to come here and from what little I know of Jongho is definitely not either of them.

I continued to tip-toe around until I reached the top floor. I skipped most of the floors since there seemed to be no human activity and it would be a waste of time. I went with my guts and followed wherever my legs brought me.

I eventually reached the final floor and room. Nothing. There was absolutely nothing there to see. I roamed around excepting something to come out but it was a failed mission. I traced the walls praying there was a secret opening but there was no luck.

I walked to the opening of a destroyed window and stared into the deep night sky. Am I just being crazy and Jongho isn't this mysterious person or is it really true that Jongho is someone different to what he's showing everyone.

"Seriously what am I actual doing here" I mumbled to myself.

I was prepared to leave and drop my conspiracy theories, until my eyes detected movement in the darkness and darted to a figure. It was a female figure and behind her another figure emerged. In the dead silence of the apartment a faint click of a camera echoed throughout the building. My ears perched which took me down six floors until the faint clicks turned clearer and louder.

"Yah douchebag" I spoke in my natural voice.

Knowing it might ruin his plans I continued making my way until I was intercepted by a tough grip around my throat. The airways of my throat was unable to carry any new oxygen into my lungs and I struggled to gasp for any remaining air that could keep me alive. I struggled beneath his grip and my eyes began to sting as if it was being poked with a needle, tears escaping like prisoners.

Just before the darkness caved in the force around my neck didn't exist anymore and I fell to the ground in fear.

"Stop! I know her!" A well-known voice whispered angrily.

I rubbed my throat and slowly brought my breathing to it's original pace. I looked up and saw Jongho's angry expression. He was there but as a different person. Someone who I didn't know.

"Are you ok?" Jongho knelt besides me.

"Does it look like I'm ok? I've just been choked by this idiotic human." Jongho helped me up. "What are you doing here?"

"Let's take you home, I bet your grandpa is worried about you" Jongho forced me out, avoiding my question.

My attempt to get some answers out of Jongho was in vain. Nothing was going to come out of his mouth even if there was a knife to his throat.

"Why won't you tell me anything? You know my life so why can't you tell me about yours? This isn't a one-way friendship is it?" I kept on tripping while trying to keep up my pace with his.

"Who said this was a friendship?" Jongho let go. "We only crossed paths a few times and plans were made out of pity!"

"PITY? You've got to be kidding me!" I threw a fit. "You pity me? Well I pity you! I pity you over the fact you're just like everybody else! You've ruined my friendship with San and now you're over here-"

"Go home. Now! Before you get into deep trouble!" Jongho walked off.

"Wow so now you're leaving me all alone in the middle of the night! Exposed to the danger of nature and society. I didn't realise you were that big of a jerk!" I screamed.

Of course I am frightened. Isn't every female afraid being by themselves in the middle of the night. Anything could happen and it didn't help how far I was from the city. There was a dangerous atmosphere lurking, the owls hooting and the leaves bustling. At this point a crazy man should cut me in half... wait stop the bad thinking, this just makes me even more nervous.

Half and hour later and an attempt to make my way through with the light of my flashlight was unsuccessful. I am never going to get out of here dead or alive. My heart is pounding so hard you could probably hear it from a mile away.

However desperate times comes desperate measures. I scrolled through my contacts and hesitated to press the only persons number that could save me. It took me a few minutes to gather up the courage to call him but I couldn't stay out here all night.

"I'm going to cut straight to the case but I am in the middle of nowhere, about a four miles away from any sane breathing organism and I do not have the courage to walk home by myself, please come pick me up before I get killed" I clarified.

"Where are you? I'm coming now" I could hear San scramble around.

He was definitely asleep.

"I don't know exactly but I'll-" My phone was snatched out of my hands. "Yah what are you doing?"

Jongho had come to my 'rescue' probably out of pity . Tsk.

So we can now say Jongho is definitely not the person he perceives himself as. Who is he and what is he up to? We'll have to rely on Kaia to find out, let's pray she does it without killing herself!
