20. Symbol

Taeyong's POV

"Symbol? Why would there be a symbol craved at the back of my sister's cupboard?" Jennie asked confusedly as I went inside deeper the closet.

"I don't know, but its a very strange one." I added.

"Did Jisoo ever go to some drama club or something?" I asked going back to Jennie who was crouching.

"Nope, like I said, she's more of a shy person and doesn't like a huge audience."

"So what can that symbol mean?" I asked again.

"I'm not quite sure Taeyong.." Jennie pouted as I stared at her disappointedly.

"Aish, we were so close." I sighed when a sudden memory hit me.

"Not everything is seen by view, sometimes you have to look deeper, even if it's going behind." ~

"Get up." I said as I pulled Jennie from her despair.

"What the hell Taeyong!?" Jennie shouted at me as I covered her mouth.

"Listen to me Kim Jennie, I came to you, to make a promise. And that promise is to bring justice for your sister. And thats what I'm going to do." I said reassuringly as she nodded her head.

"Now help me move this closet to the side." I said as Jennie gave me the most confusing eyes.

"Have you gone out of your mind!?" She yelled as I hushed her again.

With nothing else to do, Jennie followed my lead and helped me.

"1, 2, 3 pull." We both pulled the closet with all our might and power but Jennie suddenly dropped it.

"Jennie?" I asked.

"I can't do it Taeyong! Its to heavy.." She whined as I sighed.

"Look Jennie, if you try your hardest, you can do this. Think about your sister." This apparently motivated her and we pulled the closet again and we managed to pull it aside.

"A door!? I never knew about this! " Jennie squealed as I looked closer to it.

"With the same symbol?" I said while I touched the engraving which had a lock on it by the side.

"Jennie"

"Yes?" She asked.

"On the scale of one to ten, how much of a spy would you want to be."

"There is no scale! I would love to be a secret agent solving crimes in the secret life.." Jennie casually said as I shook my head.

"Then unlock that lock with your bobby pin." I said as she started shaking her head.

"I-I will try." Jennie bent down and took the pin of her head and went inside the lock.

After winding and pulling and pushing with the pin, the door finally opens.

"It looks dark, lets go another time." Jennie joked while I wasnt having it so I pulled her along with me.

"Taeyong! What if there are spiders?!" Jennie whinged as I sighed.

"Just keep crawling." And thats what we did, we kept crawling until we were met inside a room.

"What the." We got up as we looked around the room.

"I swear I never seen this room before!" Jennie said as she looked around as well as me.

"Guess Jisoo was more secretive than you said." I spoke as we looked at the pictures.

With no hesitation, I walked around with nothing to interest me, just chairs, desk, lamps and really old painting, I walked over to the bookshelf that was neatly placed with books.

"Jennie?" I called out as she came towards me. "Was Jisoo an addict to reading?" I asked as she nodded her head.

"In fact, she would bring weird books home, like "How to kill spirits" or "How to break free from someone" at first I didn't really care since they were fiction, but I wondered where they were left when she was finished with them, I guess they were here.."

I nodded at the piece of vital information that was said and focused on the scene.

"Aish how come Jisoo never told me this shit!?" Jennie boiled up leaving me to press a hand on her back.

"Come one lets go back now. I want to get back to Ma, wanna come home with me Jen? A sleepover?" I looked into her eyes as she gazed at me and softly blushed.

"Sure why not, I do want to see Ma again, I mean, you did literally kicked me out of your house." She pouted.

I ruffled her hair and we both crawled back inside the small tunnel back into Jisoo's room.

While crawling back, I tried pushing the door.

"Jennie? Did you shut the door?"

"What! No! You know I'm too scared to come here! Why would I close the damn door!?" She said as she murmured.

"The door is locked."
