Bitna
I moved away from the window immediately,my eyes dilating in shock.
Oh my! What is going on? What’re they doing here?
They aren’t here for me, right? Of course, not. They can’t be here for me!
My eyes watered as I continued watching them untill they walked into the house.
Oh God!
Maybe they were here for Kim; or for that streetfighter – Whatever his name is.
Yes, they were probably here for him.
Oh goodness! But why am I feeling so scared; so unsecure?
I was almost shaken, not knowing what next to do. Who could they possibly be in the room with at the moment? Who could they be talking with?
Oh! Of course, they were probably arresting the criminal already.
The door opened shortly and Kim walked in. She was looking shocked, making it obvious that something was wrong.
“Um… Bitna” she called.
“Did you…go to the doctor’s office today?”
I flinched immediately.
Oh God; this was it. This was it. It was all about me!
“Wh… Why’re you asking me that?” I asked nervously.
“Well… some officers are here and they …”
“I didn’t do it!” I cut in immediately, my voice almost sounding tearful.
“I… I didn’t do it. Tell them to leave me alone”.
She looked at me, surprised.
“Bitna, what have you done?” She asked and I bursted into tears.
“I didn’t mean to do it” I whimpered. “I just .. I was just angry and hit him with the bottle. I didn’t know it’d hurt him so bad. Please, tell them to let me go”.
I couldn’t imagine myself going to jail.
The door opened shortly and a police man came in.
What?
“We need to leave, Miss. Please, come with us” he said and more tears streamed down my cheeks as I shook my head and move backwards.
“Let me go. Let me go” I mumbled repeatedly.
He came towards me with a handcuff.
“Don’t touch me! Let me go!” I yelled at him.
For the first time, I looked at Kim, wishing she could help, but she looked really helpless, and shocked.
Oh God! I’m doomed! I’m doomed!
I whimpered fearfully as the police man got to where I was and placed the cuffs on my hands.
“No” I whimpered as he started leading me out of the room, my heart breaking apart.

Chi’s Pov:
The fourth Queen stood at a well hidden corner before placing the car. She was panicking.
She dialed his private line which only a very few people had, and at the third beep, he picked up.
“Jimin?” She called immediately, in a whisper.
“Mum” came his reply.
“Goodness! Jimin, where are you? Everyone’s been trying to reach you!” She snapped, but he didn’t reply.
“What is going on, Jimin?” She continued. “there are some…There are some rumours about you being responsible for your father’s death. I need you to come home and defend yourself so they can know you’re innocent”.
“There’s nothing to defend, mum” he gave his reply.
“I’m really responsible for it”.
The Queen felt her heart splitting into two.
What??
She scoffed and itched her hisr.
“Hold on, Jimin. What’re… What’re you talking about? Have you lost your mind?” She asked, finding it unbelievable.
“I’m sorry, mum. But that’s the truth. Father needed to go. I couldn’t just sit by and watch a young innocent lady get killed because of him. She doesn’t deserve it. Some of these traditions needs to be adjusted so they don’t endanger people’s lives”.
“Jimin!” His mother cried out. “Oh, my! What have you done!!”
“I’m sorry, mother, if I disappointed you”. He sighed.
“You killed your father!!”
“Father was dying already!” He almost snapped, then took in a deep breath to calm his nerves.
“I only made it quicker to prevent the death of an innocent lady” he added.
“But for goodness sake, Jimin! This isn’t right! Not at all! Oh goodness! What have you done, Jimin! Why does it have to be you!”
She bursted into tears.
“Where are you?” She sniffed.
“I’m in a safe place, mother, about leaving the country. LIke I said, don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine”. He answered and she bursted into more tears.
Her son. Her dear son. She was losing him.
“Jimin please…” She wept.
“Just tell me you’re lying. Tell me this isn’t true”
“I wish I could, mother. I’m sorry” he answered and ended the call.

Danica
When I was done from the room, I went out and met with Maya and her husband at the dining.
Oh! Sorry, mum and dad.
They were already seated and seemed to be waiting for me when I got there. So, I just simply joined them.
“What would you like to eat, Danica?” Mum asked as she stood up and opened the different plates on the table.
“Um… anything, ma’am” I smiled nervously and she dished out some beans for me, together with some vegetables and meat.
We started eating, mostly in silence. But after a while, “dad” started bringing up some little chats
But not long after, a call interrupted him as he excused himself to receive the call.
I didn’t pay attention as I just focused on my sumptuous meal. But when he suddenly shirked, I was forced to look at him.
“What?
“Hold on… Where?
“Okay. Okay”.
And he dropped the call.
“Honey, what’s wrong?” Mum asked immediately.
“It’s Bitna. She’s been arrested on the charges of an attempted murder on Doctor Lucas”.
“What??” Mum sprang on her feet immediately.
“I don’t…I don’t understand! How the hell did that happen? How’s that possible?” She gibbered.
“I don’t know, Maya”.
“Goodness! Where is she being held? What station?”
“Don’t worry. I can take you there”. Dad stood up with his phone.
“You can stay home and take care of yourself, Danica. We’ll be back soon” dad said with his hand on my shoulder and I just nodded.
And without further hesitation, he hurried off with mum.
“Hold on…Bitna actually attempted to kill someone? I don’t get. Why would she do such a thing?
I mean… Bitna didn’t look like a murderer to me. She might be stubborn, rude and all that, but she’s no murderer.
I remained quiet for a long time, unable to touch my meal. I couldn’t tell why I suddenly lost appetite, being affected by the news of Bitna.
I sank my fingers into my hair and stood up.
Goodness! It was unbelievable.
Well, at a point, I didn’t entirely feel surprised because Bitna was the daughter of Kim.
G©sh.
A knock came on the door and I hurried to check it out, wondering who it might be. Probably, someone that was there to see mum or dad.
But when I opened the door, to my greatest surprise, it was..
Scott?
