"So... what's your name?" Somi asked Sakura, trying to get her to speak again as she sat across from her bed. But Sakura showed no signs of emotion to indicate she would answer. So she didn't, leaving Somi awkwardly idling by.

"Miyawaki... Sakura." Sakura sudden said slowly.

"Well, Sakura. Do you... need our help with anything?" Somi asked. Sakura shook her head, "Thank you..." she said, catching the younger girl off guard.

"For what?"

"For letting me stay here. I'm sure you and your brother weren't planning on taking care of a stranger." Sakura sighed.

"Oh, no problem!" Somi exclaimed. "My brother's taking med school so he's basically prepared for things like this~" She said with a big smile on her face, seeing it almost made Sakura's lips twitch. Still not very trusting, she turned away and looked outside the window again.

Ring*

Somi suddenly felt the vibration in her pocket, grabbing her phone she immediately saw Wonwoo trying to call her. So she picked up, with Sakura still in front of her by the way.

Somi:

You home yet, oppa?

Wonwoo:

Is that girl still there?

Somi glances over at Sakura before excusing herself out of the room.

Somi:

Yeah, why?

Wonwoo:

I met some people, they were looking for someone who fits her description.

Somi:

Oh that great! Maybe they're her friends– wait, where did you meet these guys? Aren't you at the movies with Minju and Joshua?

Wonwoo:

We already finished the movie, I left early and coming back right now.

Somi:

Aiiiish you could've waited, oppa. What will Minju think about you?

Wonwoo:

Whatever, just tell the girl that we'll be home soon.

Somi:

Got it

Ending the call, Somi walked back into Sakura's room. The latter raised an eyebrow because of Somi's sudden departure.

"What happened?" She asked.

"Nothing, it's just that my brother said he found people who were looking for you. And he's bringing them here~" Somi sadly smiled. But Sakura's eyes quickly became shifty as she toppled off her bed and stared out her window, looking in the dark depths of the outside for someone.

"Whoa, what's wrong, Sakura? Is something botherin–

"You need to help me!" Sakura suddenly grabbed a hold of Somi's shoulders.

"W- wha?"

"Please, help me. You can't let those person find me. He'll... he'll-" Sakura began to break down, with tears already flowing down her eyes. Not knowing how to respond with her words, Somi quickly pulled Sakura to the hallway. The girl then pulled on a string, revealing stairs that lead to the attic.

"Hide up there," Somi ordered. "I'll tell my brother that you already left."

"Th- thank you." Sakura smiled.

"Don't sweat it." Somi replied before closing the attic pathway.

"Alright we're here." Wonwoo plumped out of his car and lead Seungyoun and Wooseok to his front door. However, he noticed as they were walking that Wooseok was suddenly more talkative and fidgety.

"A- are you sure she's here? This isn't a prank right?" He asked.

"Wooseok, just calm down man. I'm pretty sure this guy wouldn't joke about this." Seungyoun said.

' So Wooseok's his name? Why do those initials sound familiar? ' Wonwoo glanced over at Wooseok, his face held a small smile that creeped him a little so he turned away.

"I don't know her name, so I'm sorry if she doesn't happen to be the girl you're looking for." Wonwoo apologized.

"No no... I'm sure this is her." Wooseok hummed, glancing up at Wonwoo's house, he noticed a window suddenly shift. He slyly smiled again before being stopped by Wonwoo because they were now at his door.

Knocking on the wood, Wonwoo called out Somi's name. And barely ten seconds later, she opened the door with a bead of sweat running down her forward.

"Wait are you sick? Why didn't you tell me!" Wonwoo touched her forehead, feeling the heat from the tense situation.

"I'm not sick. I've just been... on a jog. Who are these guys?" She asked.

"Im Cho Seungyoun, and this is Wooseok. Sorry for the late intrusion, miss. We're just trying to look for a friend of ours." Seungyoun introduced, shaking Somi's hand. Somi side-eyed Wonwoo, gaining his attention.

"Oh really? W- well... we did have someone over, but she already left."

"What? She did and you didn't tell me?" Wonwoo grew a little angry since he basically wasted their time.

"It's true oppa! She left about 20 minutes ago, without telling me. I don't know where she could've gone."

Seungyoun looked over at his friend. Wooseok quietly chuckled, observing the stairs and hallway of the Jeon household.

"Is that so? Hehe... it's fine." He said.

"Are you sure? I could help you find her if you wan–

"No oppa! Uhm I need help with that science project, remember?" Somi clung onto Wonwoo's shoulder.

"What's gotten into you, Somi? You can wait." He retaliated.

"No, it's fine. C'mon Seungyoun. We can look somewhere else." Wooseok casually walked back outside and into a random direction, slowly having Seungyoun follow him as the latter said goodbye to the siblings.

"Wait up!" Seungyoun called, grabbing a hold of his friend's shoulder.

"She lied."

"What?"

"His sister, she lied. Sakura's in there."

"...did you hit your head or something? Here, let me call a cab." Seungyoun pulled out his phone and began dialing for a taxi. While Wooseok blankly stared at the top window of Wonwoo's house again, his lips curled into a devilish smile once again.

' You can't hide from me forever, remember that. My dear Sakura. '
