"Mr. Kim was arrested on suspicion of murdering national heroine, Jung Mina and faced the rage of the whole country. Upon hearing the prosecution's decision not to indict him, he reiterated his innocence and couldn't continue afterward."

The man with the black clothes who's been looking out with a close eye on Jisoo, dropped his banner for the athlete that he loved. He was just mad. He wanted to have justice on the death on the archer. But now knowing the truth, there was no point in blaming the prosecutor who handled the case in a professional way.

-----

Hearing the report from Jennie, Jisoo put her utensils down for awhile and decided to listen to what Jennie is reporting first.

"As it was the death of an athlete beloved by the whole nation, the rage against Mr. Kim, who was suspected to have murdered her, was extremely intense."

Jaeyong, who's eating right in front of her looked at the TV in awe. "Reporter Kim is the only reporter who has our back." Jisoo smiled and looked at him before eating the food that they're having on Jennie's restaurant. "Of course."

"However, people's rage made it difficult to do the right thing."

Jisoo's hand stopped mid-air as she was about to drink when she heard what Jennie said, and the words repeated on her mind. Somehow, she knew she had heard this somewhere before. No, she had read this somewhere.

Her eyes looked into the cup she's holding as the memories suddenly flashed through her mind.

My father told me this once.

Rage makes it difficult for us to do the right thing.

"You look like someone I know."

"Who?"

"A girl who hit me when I was little."

Looking at the TV, she stood up and stared intently at Jennie's face. Like she was observing it. Jisoo's lips parted as she thought of the possibilty.

"Could it be?"

Jaeyong who looked up at her, surprised on why she had suddenly stood up. "What is it?" He asked but the prosecutor seemed to be preoccupied on other things. When a waitress goes by her, she walked after her and tapped on her shoulder making the woman turn around.

"Excuse me. Where did the owner go?"

The female smiled, "She went to a pharmacy near here to get some digestive medicine." Jisoo pursed her lips before grabbing her coat and left the restaurant with Jaeyong shouting her name loudly.

As Jisoo walked her way towards the pharmacy, she can't help but let out a toothy grin. And again, her own memories flooded her mind again. 

"Because I also started having those goddamn dreams! Why the hell is it me? Why me?!"

"I don't know either!"

"I don't know what it is. But there must be a reason why you and I dream these things." 

With a wide smile on her face, she ran towards the place where Soyeon is.

"Is it possible that saved you is Ms. Jennie Kim? Since you have dreams about Ms. Jennie Kim, the person who saved you must be Ms. Jennie Kim."

"The person who saved me is a boy. It wasn't Jennie Kim. He went by the name Chestnut."

Right when Soyeon opened the door and got out, Jisoo held her by the shoulder to refrain her from going away. Startled, Soyeon narrowed her eyes and smiled when it was Jisoo who's in front of her. "Prosecutor Kim."
