Nana yawned widely after class was over.
"what are you doing? why do you look so sleepy?" Hyo Joo asked
"Things that adults do," Nana said
"You, why wearing glasses," Nana said while fixing her makeup
"Ah, last night I stayed up late making assignments for the exam," said Hyo Joo
"Are you not going to the dorm tonight?" Hyo Joo asked
"Hmm... actually I didn't plan to go anywhere. But because my boyfriend is very strict during the exam period, I'm going back to the dormitory. He drains my energy," said Nana
"Hey, you. Don't say crazy things here," said Hyo Joo
"Hahaha" Nana just laughed out loud
Hyo Joo then ran to leave Nana. Nana then chased Hyo Joo and teased her by saying
"You know Bom's body is very...."
"Stop it…" Hyo Joo said
The two friends then laughed while running around the campus area toward their dormitory
in front of the dorm Hyo Joo suddenly stopped.
"It's been a long time since we played together, let's go play," Hyo Joo asked
"OK," Nana said
the two of them then decided to go play, usually they would go shopping, eat, and go to karaoke or the arcade.
they played to their heart's content that day. when they start to feel hungry they then go to a restaurant of delicious noodles and grilled meats.
"About my vacation," said Hyo Joo
"Yes, why?" she asked
"will I be okay?" Hyo Joo asked
Nana then put down her chopsticks
"tomorrow day right?" asked Nana
"Yes" Hyo Joo said
"face the trial and leave all the painful feelings behind. go on an adventure because the wound will never heal. so make new, beautiful and fun memories" said Nana
Tomorrow is the final court hearing for the verdict on the stalking and kidnapping case that Vivi and Hyo Joo experienced
---
the day of the trial, Bom, Song, Nana, and Hyun Jae sat on the bench in the courtroom. Hyo Joo sits on the witness stand for the last time, so does Vivi. they both held hands, strengthening each other.
"for the testimony and evidence, the Judge decided to sentence him to 15 years in prison and a fine of 2 million won as well as community service as a probation for 5 years and fitting anklets during that period"
Hyo Joo and Vivi hug.
they all then gathered outside the courthouse.
they all then hug each other. "Thank you all for your help and support, we can get through this difficult time," said Vivi
then from a distance came a tall and fit man. very short haircut. it was senior Dae.
"Did the trial go well?" he asked
"Yes," answered Vivi
"Hyo Joo" Dae hugged Hyo Joo
"Is it all over? I'm going somewhere with Vivi. Say my hello to Alex" Dae said
Dae took Vivi's hand and left.
Song could only look on with a bitter gaze
"It's all over now and I'm sorry for everything," said Hyun Jae
Hyo Joo nodded
"Don't blame yourself for what happened. Forgive yourself like I forgive your mistakes," said Hyo Joo
Alex soon showed up with the car. he rushed to run toward his sister, Hyo Joo
"I'm sorry my sweet little sister. I can't accompany you in that hell. Is it very tiring?" asked Alex while hugging Hyo Joo
Hyo Joo stares at her brother's face carefully. She remembers the day She was held captive and tortured by the stalker. what she imagined at that time was the protection of her older brother. if only she had obeyed her older brother to come home that night then that nightmare would never have happened to her. But then she turned her gaze to her friends. maybe something bad will happen to Vivi and Nana that night.
Hyo Joo looks back at her brother and she is grateful for her brother's vigilant attitude during her physical and mental healing process. there was no one else she could rely on other than Alex with high trust. In fact, she trusted Alex more than her own father.
Alex open his arm widely, just like when he saw little Hyo Joo. Hyo Joo run to his arm and finally the tears that had been held back by Hyo Joo broke out, she cried loudly in her brother's arms. until she feels there are no more tears left for tomorrow.
Nana rubs Hyo Joo's back while Bom, Song, and Hyun Jae can only watch with sadness flowing in their souls. events that will probably have a deep mark on their lives.
after Hyo Joo calmed down, Alex escorted Hyo Joo to the car. Hyo Joo then rolled down the car window and smiled as she said
"See you again"
from afar
"Why do you only look at her from afar?" Baek ho asked
"Nah, it's okay. it is their story. I'm not part of it. I'm an outsider in their circle" Hyun Min said
"but I'm happy that she finally can breathe again. the pain will last longer in her mind, it will be never erased. but I hope I can make happy memory for her in the future, so that nightmare will covered by that great memory" Hyun Min said and smile
