Fifteen
Decreasing Time"Lizzy?" Nana asked as she opened the door to the bar, she noticed the chairs tipped over and bottles smashed on the floor. "Are you okay..." She slowly made her way towards the bar, she saw a hand slowly reach up on the bar. "Lizzy" Nana rushed over towards the bar, looking over to see a scared Lizzy clinging to the bar.
"Why are you here..." Lizzy pushed herself up although she was awfully shaky.
"I came to inquire news about Bomi... But what happened." Nana reached up fixing Lizzy's messy hair.
"Those people came back, the ones from the night of the shooting. They were saying threats about knowing I was here, saying it was my time... Saying I knew about everything?" Lizzy shook her head, trying to wrap her head around what had happened. "I have no clue what they were talking about, I just hid."
"I do." Nana sighed as she scratched her head wondering how to explain everything to Bomi's friend. "Bomi's been shot..."
"I know that... I was heading out to see her."
"Well... you know she's the president's daughter... she... How do I say this." Nana ran her fingers through her hair.
"You know... You know her work..."
"You..."
"I work for her too. I was hired to keep her safe while she was investigating. Granted I never trusted her father, but Bomi was different. So I went with her when she decided to get to know you all."
"You knew..."
"Yeah I know lots about you too, you know I saw most of how you lived."
"Ahhh..." Nana's face went red. "I'm really not... like that... I mean I can be.. but like not every girl..." Nana coughed awkwardly. "Anyway so... want to tell me what they really wanted by coming here. Were they going to get you too because you know everything..."
"Why ask if you know... Come on." Lizzy grabbed Nana's hand and began to head out towards the street.
"Are you sure you're a nurse here?"
"Oh yeah I'm new today, but I'm up for the challenge." Namjoo lied as she put on the best smile she could. "I'll go check on Miss Yoon now." she bowed to the nurse before speed walking down the hallway towards the room Bomi was laying in. She smiled at the guards who were blocking the door as she pushed her way through to go 'tend' to Bomi.
"Namjoo?" Bomi said as she sat up in her bed.
"Aren't you supposed to be dying?" Namjoo asked confused as she walked slowly over towards Bomi.
"Is that what they are saying?" Bomi furrowed her brows, as she wondered what her father was planning. "Anyway why are you here... I know Chorong must have told you."
"That doesn't matter right now... I don't need answers from you. Chorong is the one who needs them, and I'll be damned if I let you die before giving them to her."
"You're right..."Bomi looked down at the bandaged wound on her arm. "Thank god my father has bad aim."
"I'll get you out of here..." Namjoo crossed her arms. "Only so you can beg for forgiveness from Chorong. Also I couldn't handle leaving you to die. I now know what the government is capable of."
"Give me your phone..." Bomi smirked slightly, which disturbed Namjoo. "Lizzy will know what to do."
"Hello, how do you get this.... Bomi?" Lizzy let go of Nana's hand and stopped in her tracks.
"Yes I'm using Namjoo's phone..."
"What's wrong?"
"Is that Nana... this works... Alright"
"What works Yoon Bomi, you were shot... aren't you dying? Wait... I should have known they were lying." Nana opened her eyes shocked from what Lizzy was saying.
"You guys have to get me out of here, I need to explain everything. Lizzy the guards trust you, you work with them. Tell them you knew nothing and are willing to do what is needed to keep me quite... Namjoo will get you in the ward.... Nana has to distract the guards down stairs." Lizzy looked towards the Nana, wondering why the girl looked so distant.
"Right..." Lizzy looked down at the ground as she hung up her phone. She walked towards the visible angry girls.
"We need to stop this..." Nana looked at Lizzy. "Also I'm sorry that all I was and am is a flirt... but hey it helps in this plan right?" Nana smirked as she tucked her hands in her pockets. "Let's get going."
