“Your mom’s waiting”

Those words echoed inside her mind repeatedly. She slowly opened her eyes and she found herself lying on a bed. “How’s the kid doing?” she heard a male voice ask. “He just needs to rest. It looks like his body can’t take the pressure of his Alice. The other one just got bruises and cuts. They’re both in the other room” another one replied.

Where is this place? She looked around, scanning the place. It didn’t look like a hospital basing from the interior. She shut her eyes as she felt her head in pain. Her side was also hurting and she couldn’t help but wince. Someone fixed her blanket, tucking her in to make her warm.

She opened her eyes once more. The room was now empty. She tried to sit up on her own. She blankly stared on the wall for some time before standing. She opened the door and left the room. She walked through the hallway, walking aimlessly. She peeked inside the other room and she found Kai and Jaehyun sitting on opposite beds. Jaehyun has cast on his arm. They were both not talking and they looked like they were sleeping while sitting. She opened the door and they both looked at her.

Kai quickly got off the bed and approached her. “Are you okay?” he asked, holding her face with both hands. She nodded as she smiled. “How about you? Are you okay? You’re not having any trouble in breathing?”

“I’m alright”

Liar… Her brain said. She felt like she’s going to cry any moment. The pain that she’s feeling couldn’t be compared to what he’s feeling. He pulled her into a tight hug and she buried her face on his chest. She missed him and how his warmth just makes her feel safe. “I thought I was going to lose you” he mumbled as he kissed her hair.

She clasped her hands together on his back. It just felt like the only people in the world were the two of them. She just wanted to cherish that moment. “I was very scared that I would lose you too” she also mumbled. He put his hands on her shoulder and pulled himself, looking at her. He brushed her tears away and smiled. “That will never happen” he said.

She nodded. On the corner of her eyes, she saw Jaehyun looking at them. They met each other’s gazes. She walked towards him. “You tried to harm me twice” she was deadpan serious. Jaehyun looked down, not meeting her gaze. “Sorry. I don’t have any excuses. I’m just very sorry”

“But you saved my life and I don’t want to hold any grudges against you” she continued, making him look up. “Hana” he muttered. “Thank you” she said, smiling weakly as she touched her side which was killing her.

The door opened and the three of them looked at it. A lady was standing in front of them. The striking similarity on their looks made Hana’s insides tie into a knot. Her heart started to pound loudly. The lady clamped her hand on and started walking towards her. She was crying and she pulled Hana into a hug.

“Miyoung, my daughter. Thank God you’re alright”

Hana felt her cheeks burn as she froze at that instant. She didn’t know what to do or how to react. She felt tears trickling down her cheeks. Wait, why am I crying? Why are tears coming from my eyes?

She found herself hugging her back. Her fingers were shaky. She found her answer. She’s shocked, surprised and thankful.

“Mom?” she mumbled and the lady sobbed even louder, her back as she nodded.

“Yes, I’m your mom”

Heesoo brushed her daughter’s hair repeatedly. She has been trying to catch up with Hana and she was very thankful that her daughter was able to understand why she left her. It was harder to convince her that Mino is not that kind of bad guy that she was thinking of. Will you forgive the man who killed your father that easily? But looking at how her mother was treating Mino, she came to forgive the man a little bit.

She stared at Hana who was sleeping silently on the sofa. A smile came to her face just by thinking about how she would take care of her daughter in the coming days. The daughter that she left to a stranger because she thought it was the right decision to make. Heesoo brushed Hana’s cheek lightly. Many thoughts were running inside her mind and one of them is how to make her daughter safe.

A knock on the door brought her to her senses. Mino was standing just beside the opened door. Heesoo looked at Hana for the last time and fixed her blanket before she left the room, following Mino. As she stepped on the big room, she saw Kai and Jaehyun sitting on the couch. They both stood and bowed when they saw her. She smiled at them and went near Kai who had his head down.

“You’ve grown very well, Jongin” she said as she put her hand on his shoulder, making him lift his head to look at her. “I know that your mom is happy that you’ve grown very well wherever she may be” she continued, flashing him a genuine smile. He nodded in response. Heesoo looked at Jaehyun and he immediately looked down, feeling bad that he did not made a move before everything became worse.

Heesoo stood infront of him and he slowly lifted his face. “You should be proud of yourself. You made the right decision. Thank you for saving my daughter. I know how it feels like…working with the chairman” she said, giving him a small smile.

She turned to Mino who was sitting on his leather seat. “The school is being guarded. The chairman is furious after the fire at the Council. We need distraction in order to enter the school and save the kids. Jaejoong’s really not in the condition to use his Alice. With his stubborn personality, he would not think twice and use his Alice to protect the kids. If he does that…” he trailed off and sighed. Heesoo crossed her arms infront of her chest, thinking about what they could do.

“Are you alright?” Mino asked Kai. He was aware about what he was asking about. He unconsciously touched the Limiter on his wrist. “Yes, I’m alright” Kai replied. Heesoo looked at him with a worried expression. “Jonghoon must me worried sick about you” she muttered before looking at Mino. “We need to tell him about what we’re planning to do. At times like this, we need to work together” she suggested, earning a nod from Mino.

Mino leaned forward, clasping his hands infront of him. “I have a bad feeling that the chairman will come charging. There are kids in here and I don’t want to risk their safety. If he hears that you’re with me, he’ll attack without minding about any other people. And now, thinking that your daughter might have your Alice…” he sighed and looked up.

 “Hana doesn’t have that Alice” Jaehyun informed them with a soft voice. “What?” Heesoo asked, turning to him. They were all looking at him. “When I went to get Hana at the Council, the result of the test that they did came out” he started and he could see the pained expression on Heesoo’s face. She probably knew how much pain Hana was subjected into because of the test. “And it said that she does not have that Alice” he continued.

Heesoo took a deep breath and a smile came on her face. “Thank goodness. Thank goodness that she does not have my Alice. Thank goodness” she endlessly nodded her head, eyes shut.

Kyungsoo was silently sitting inside their room, thinking about what Kai told him last night. He tried to stop his friend from doing what he told him but it was all in vain. Kai did not even listen to him when he told him that it was dangerous even if Jaehyun would be with him. But a part of him also wanted to go with Kai and save Hana. He was hoping that everything went well.

He couldn’t help but feel fear because of the sudden changes in the school. There were always men in suits circling the school, checking for students who are not following instructions. The students were terrified about what could happen to them. He saw several students being punished being pulled out of their classes. He still doesn’t have a clue about what they did to them.

He never saw TOP for the whole morning class and he could feel that something was happening. He stared blankly at his book, thinking about what Kai told him. “I’m risking my life in here but I don’t want to risk yours. If ever you don’t hear anything about me, don’t do stupid things. I know I’m a stupid friend and I don’t even know if I should be considered as one” Kai’s voice echoed inside his mind. He closed his eyes and massaged his temples.

From any angle that he would like to look at it, it sounded like Kai was already saying his last goodbye and it was making him uncomfortable. He let his head down, the heels of his palms covering his eyes. “Just try dying on me and I will never forgive you” he mumbled, teeth clenched.

“Hey” Sehun’s voice made him lift his head. L was standing beside him. They all looked at him with a worried expression and he knew why. He’s not the type who sits alone inside an empty room and acting like something is wrong. “Are you okay?” Sehun asked.

He quickly nodded, flashing them a smile. “Yeah, just a little headache” he lied. Sehun raised a brow. He’s really hard to convince. “By the way, did that transferee came to you?” Sehun asked, taking the seat in front of Kyungsoo. L sat on the table just beside Sehun. “Trans- Jaehyun?” Kyungsoo asked.

Sehun nodded. “Last night, during the black out, he came running and he was asking about Hana. He didn’t come to you?”

Kyungsoo fell into a deep thought. Kai told him that Jaehyun was working with the chairman and that he’s the only person that could help him get Hana back. Everything is getting twisted. He clenched his fists and sighed. “He did not come to me” he replied, calmly.

“Do you think something happened to her? But why would he worry about that?” L suddenly asked. Kyungsoo kept quiet. Sehun kept on staring at him, judging. “Tell me honestly, who is this Jaehyun? Is he possibly-”

The door opened and they all looked at it. Woohyun stepped in while scratching the back of his neck. “Kyungsoo, you told us that Hana and Kai are just at the faculty but when I tried asking teacher Sunny, she said that she never saw them there because strict rules were being applied. Nobody’s allowed in the faculty room except for teachers” Woohyun said as he approached them.

“Is there something wrong? Do you know anything about what’s happening?” L asked, staring at Kyungsoo. They were all looking at him. He sighed, shutting his eyes.

“Look, the thing is-”

A loud scream made them jump out off their seats and running towards the window. Below, several men in suits were dragging some students towards the black van parked on the lawn. It was not the first time that they saw such situation but it just never failed to make them angry at what they’re looking at.

“WHERE ARE YOU TAKING US?!” the girl who was being dragged yelled as she made an effort to free herself from the grasp of the man. “JUST SHUT UP AND GET IN THE CAR!!” the man yelled back at her, pulling her even harder and the girl screamed. There were several students around them. Five more students who looked like freshmen were also being dragged.

“Just what the hell is happening?” Sehun muttered under his breath. His jaws were so tight in anger. “The chairman is weeding out Alice users who are not up to his standards. Kai told us about this possibility and it looks like it’s really happening” Kyungsoo replied while clenching his fists. “So are we going to just stand here and look at what’s happening? This situation is going out of hand” L asked, looking at Kyungsoo.

Another scream echoed throughout the place. Another girl was being pulled by the hair. “GET IN!!” the man yelled. A trashcan suddenly hit the man and he fell on the ground. The girl ran towards the building and was about to be followed by two men but two more trashcans came flying, hitting them both on their faces. They both grunted as they tried to sit up from their fall.

The first man who fell stood and looked at the several kids around the van. “WHO DID THAT?! COME OUT!!” he yelled, scanning the place for the culprit who broke his nose. The kids started stepping back, leaving a girl with straight black hair, staring at the men with unreadable expression.

“Y-Yumi” Woohyun mumbled in disbelief when he recognized the girl in front of the men. “What the hell is she doing in there?” he added, leaning forward to take a better look if she really is Yumi. No doubt about it.

The man chuckled sardonically as he approached her. “Just who the hell do you think you are? WHO?!” he asked loudly. Yumi did not flinch a bit. It was not intimidating her. She smirked and the man’s jaws dropped in disbelief. “I could ask the same question. Just who the hell do you think you are to treat students like us like how you did to the girl a while ago?” she asked, not taking her eyes off him.
