I Really Didn't Know

Chapter 17: She's Missing

~SEVENTEEN~
SHE’S MISSING
“Uhm, Yumae, do you mind if I’ll borrow Kris for a while?” her brows furrow.
“Sure, I do not own him… anyway.” Then she looks to the window. I smiled.
“Thank you.” I replied.
“What is it all about?” Kris asked.
“Let’s go to my office.” I replied.
We walk all the way to reach my office. He’s quiet. In my peripheral vision, I see he’s looking on the ground. His facial expression is serious, obviously he was thinking about something. I take a deep sigh as I close the door of my office.
“This is all about Yumae.” I said.
“Why? Is there something wrong?” he asked. I look straightly into his eyes and nod.
“Yeah. She’s been accused as a thief.” I continued. He looks shocked.
“A what?” and his brows furrow.
“Calm down, Kris. They aren’t showing any proofs as of now. They said, they will only reveal the evidences once Yumae is present.”
“How did they say that Yumae is a thief? What thing did she steal? Yumae would never do that. She can’t.” he said. I can feel the anger in his voice.
“A diamond necklace. They broke into Yumae’s room earlier to search for it and they found it there… in her room.” I explained.
“I have a great feeling that they did that on purpose! I can sense that there’s someone who is playing pranks on her! You know what President Kim, someone put sleeping pills in Yumae’s drink before she performed on stage yesterday, and that’s the reason why she collapsed.” Kris told me. My brows furrow.
“Well then, we should find out who’s all behind all of this. Yumae already suffered—a lot.” I said. He nods as an agreement.



KRIS’ POINT OF VIEW
My fists tightened as I recall every information I’d found out. Starting from the cafeteria, where Sulli spilled off foods and drinks to Yumae on purpose. I was there. The swimming pool, where in someone used Kyungsoo to push Yumae and drown. The photos of Yumae and Kai on the post-it board, the sleeping pills and now she’s being accused as a thief for stealing a diamond necklace?! How could’ve someone did this to her? What are their purposes for hurting her this way? Yumae is just a new student here and yet she received so much pain. Was it all because of me? But how did I hurt her? I want to protect her so I should find out the mastermind of this game. Life is a game, play it.
“Yumae?” I asked as I shut the door behind me. I’m done talking with President Kim and I’m now here at the clinic. My brows furrow as my eyes search for her.
“Yumae?” I walk closely to the bed. My heart is beating fast. There’s nothing in the bed. It’s just the pillows and the blanket.
“Yumae? Where are you?” I run to the bathroom and turn on the lights, but no one’s there—she’s not there.
“YUMAE?!” and my own echo answered me. Where is she?!

YUMAE’S POINT OF VIEW
It’s already 11 in the evening. I’ve been running in the cold Hongdae Street. I want to run away from them. Even for just a night. I’m getting tired and sick of them. Why are they hurting me like this? What did I do wrong? I’m not doing anything.
I stop in front of a café. I enter and sit, panting. I placed my right palm on my forehead. I can feel that my cheeks are getting warmer. It’s very cold outside and I’m not wearing any jacket. I can feel that my eyes are filling up. I put my left hand in my mouth, covering it. I don’t want to make a noise while crying and expressing myself. I tried my best to remain quiet so that nobody would notice that I’m crying. No matter how strong you are, you will still cry in times you can’t handle it anymore. Yuri-yah, I really miss you. If only you were here maybe I get better… emotionally.



*Flashback: Moments ago…
Kris went out with President Kim to his office. I guess they will talk about something important. I stand up and sit beside the window. I can see the moon and stars vividly. I smile as I look at the wonderful scenery when—
“YUMAE!” I turn around to see who called me. My eyes widened as I found out that it was Sulli and Raeja with an unfamiliar girl. They walk towards me.
“You are a thief!” Sulli exclaimed.
“Thief? W-What are you talking about?” I replied.
“Huh! Pretending you don’t know anything huh?” Raeja scoffs
“We already went in your room and we found out this.” Sulli said as she shows me a diamond necklace, almost an inch away from my face. I step back a little to have more space.
“You steal my diamond necklace!” a girl behind them exclaimed.
“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about! Stop accusing me as a thief! You don’t have any proofs!” I replied.
“You’re wrong! We have the power to have a proof!” Sulli said. She holds my right wrist, tightly.
“This is not yet over. We’re just getting started and I’ll make sure that your life would be miserable!” Sulli continued.
“Let’s Go.” Then she let go of my wrist. They go out and shut the door. I can’t explain the feeling but tears starts to fall from my eyes. I stare on my right wrist that turned red because of Sulli. My feet automatically move as it takes me to run away for a while.
*End of flashback

“Miss, excuse me but we are about to close now.” A girl said. It’s already 11:45 in the evening.
“C-Can’t I just stay here for the night?” I asked, wiping my tears away.
“I don’t know Miss because I’m just a staff here.” She answered.
“Please? I don’t have anywhere to go at this moment. I promise to go home early in the morning tomorrow.” I beg.
“I-I really don’t know Miss—“
“What’s happening here?” a voice said.
“S-Sir, she wants to stay here for the night. I told her that she can’t.” the girl said.
“Okay, I’ll handle this.” The man said.
“Okay Sir.” Then the girl walks out from the scene.
“Uhm, Sir, are you the manger of this café? Can I stay here for this night? I just need to spend this night alone and away from anybody else.” I said but the man looks surprised when he saw me. He’s like frozen in there, staring at me.
“E-Excuse me Sir?” I said, trying to gain his attention.
“Huh? Uh… oh, I’m sorry.” He stuttered then sits in front of me.
“Uhm, I am the owner of this café.” He answered.
“Really? Uhm, can you please let me stay here for the night? I just… want to get away for the night.” I asked again.
“S-Sure.” He said. I’m a little surprised because he accepts it easily.
“Wait a second.” He said then he stands up and enters in a door. I sniff and tried to hold my tears again.
“Here.” He said as he sits down and places the tray in the table with a pair of coffee.
“Thank you.” I grab the cup and drink it without any hesitation.
“I’m sorry, it’s so cold outside that’s why…” I said as I gulp the coffee that flows down in my throat.
“I-It’s fine.” He said and drinks his coffee too. He keeps on staring at me, like he wants to ask something.
“Goodbye Sir.” The girl earlier said as she went out of the café. The guy raised his right hand as a sign of ‘goodbye.’
“M-May I know your name?” he asks. I look at him and give him a weak smile.
“Yumae. Son Yu Mae.” I replied.
“Y-Yumae?” he asks. I nod.
“I thought I knew you. You really look like my friend before.” He said.
“Any way, I am Kim Min Seok, owner of this café.” He said then offers his hand to me as a sign of friendship.
“Nice to meet you.” I replied then we both shake hands.
“Do I look familiar to you?” he asked. My brows furrow. Familiar?
“Hmm, I don’t think so. I’ve never seen you before. Actually, it’s my first time to enter this… café.” I replied. He bites his lower lip and nod slowly.
“Okay.” He replied.

KAI’S POINT OF VIEW
It’s already 9 in the morning, we’re having our class—Medical Science. I sigh as I look on the chair beside me. Yumae didn’t enter the class today. I wonder if she’s doing well in the clinic. On the other side, there’s Kris, staring emotionless to the professor. As the professor teaches us about the topic, something—I mean there’s someone arrived.
“G-Good morning, Miss—“ it’s Yumae. I was shocked and my eyes widened as I see her. Something inside of my chest moves. But, the next thing happened, is more shocking.
“K-Kris…” Yumae whispers as Kris embraced her. Yes, he embraced her in front of the class—in front of us—in front of every one of us. She’s caught flat footed by him. Kris looks obviously worried. I bite my lower lip as I watch the scene happening in front of my own two eyes. My fists are getting tighter. What, what is this feeling? The professor clears her throat, reminding them that they are not alone in the room.
“Sorry Ma’am.” Kris said and he bows. The next thing he did, he grabs Yumae’s right hand then drags her all the way to the chair next to him. What? She SHOULD be beside me. Not with him. My brows furrow as she sits beside him. She looks at me—straight into my eyes, like she’s saying anything. I gulp as I try my best to not be affected by them, pouring my focus in our topic. Anyway, Yumae didn’t expect this, neither did I.

MINSEOK’S POINT OF VIEW
“I-I really don’t know Miss—“
“What’s happening here?” I said as I notice something on a table near the counter.
“S-Sir, she wants to stay here for the night. I told her that she can’t.” Miseo said, she’s one of the staff in my café.
“Okay, I’ll handle this.” I said.
“Okay Sir.” Then Miseo walks out from the scene.
“Uhm, Sir, are you the manger of this café? Can I stay here for this night? I just need to spend this night alone and away from anybody else.” The girl said. I was surprised I saw the girl on the table. I’ve been frozen in there, staring at her. I just can’t believe what I’m staring at right at this moment…
“E-Excuse me Sir?” she said, trying to gain back my attention.
“Huh? Uh… oh, I’m sorry.” I stuttered then I sit in front of her.
“Uhm, I am the owner of this café.” I answered.
“Really? Uhm, can you please let me stay here for the night? I just… want to get away for the night.” She asked again.
“S-Sure.” I said. I don’t know why, but I just can’t say no.
“Wait a second.” I said standing up and enter to the kitchen.
“Here.” I said as I sit down and placed the tray in the table with a pair of coffee.
“Thank you.” She grab the cup and drink it without any hesitation.
“I’m sorry, it’s so cold outside that’s why…” she said as she gulp the coffee. Her voice, it’s her voice. I can vividly remember.
“I-It’s fine.” I said and I drink my coffee too. I keep on staring at her. There are so many things I wanted to ask her but, I don’t know how to start.
“Goodbye Sir.” Miseo said as she went out of the café. I just raised my right hand as a sign of ‘goodbye.’
“M-May I know your name?” I asked. She looks at me and give me a weak smile.
“Yumae. Son Yu Mae.” she replied. My expectation suddenly failed.
“Y-Yumae?” I asked, just to be sure. I nod.
“I thought I knew you. You really look like my friend before.” I s said. She really looks like her—Haeyeon.
“Any way, I am Kim Min Seok, owner of this café.” I said, changing the topic then offers her my hand as a sign of friendship.
“Nice to meet you.” She replied then we both shake hands.
“Do I look familiar to you?” I asked again, I can’t help it. I saw that her brows furrow. Am I familiar to her?
“Hmm, I don’t think so. I’ve never seen you before. Actually, it’s my first time to enter this… café.” She replied. I bite my lower lip and nod slowly. Maybe, she really looks like her. It’s possible right? People have identical someone though they are not related.
“Okay.” I replied. Maybe I should shut up for a while, I must investigate about her. I want to know more about her. I want to make sure that I’m not losing any chance. As we share stories together, I found out that she’s studying at CPA. I dreamed of studying there before but since—forget it, I also set aside my dream of studying there. I just focused on our family business and built my own café. It is my childhood dream—to have a café, to be a barista. How I wish I am with my childhood friends right now. But I really need to get to know this girl—Son Yumae.

YUMAE’S POINT OF VIEW
“Class dismissed.” Our professor said. Every one stands up from their seat to go to their next class. I don’t have another class for this day. I’m going to the café. I want to be alone and I feel comfortable talking with Minseok, it feels like I’ve knew him for a long time.
“Where did you go last night?” a deep, husky voice said.
“H-Huh? Uh… I’m… at my dorm.” I replied as I fix my things.
“Don’t tell me lies.” He said.
“I-I’m not lying.” I replied, not looking at him.
“Stop lying to me!” he said, grabbing my right wrist, holding it tightly.
“K-Kris, let me go. Y-you’re hurting me.” I said. But he’s not letting go.
“Then, tell me the truth!” he said.
“I’m telling you the truth.”
“Really? Well, I went to your dorm last night, you’re not there! I’ve searched everywhere, but I can’t find you! I can’t sleep for the whole night because I’m worried about you!” he said.
“Please, stop telling lies to me. Don’t be afraid to tell me. I’m here to protect you.” He said then he hugs me again. Frozen. His warm body meets mine, I felt like shivering not because of the cold but because of his presence. Why does his presence was like this to me?
“Just… just tell me. Don’t ever leave me again.” He whispers in my left ear.
“S-Sorry.” I uttered. He just sighs while still hugging me. We’ve been left in the room.
“E-Excuse me, i-is this the medical science room?” someone entered the room and interrupted us.
“Yes.” I replied as I broke off from Kris’ hug.
“Oh, I’m sorry to interrupt. I’m just looking for the right room. I was a new one here, that’s why I’m not yet familiar.” He explains as he scratches his head. I smile.
“No, it’s okay. I’m Yumae and he is Kris.” I introduced as the new student walks closely towards us.
“Hi Yumae and Kris. I’m Zhang Yixing. Oh, I am Chinese.” He said. We shake hands together but Kris didn’t accept his offer.
“Don’t mind him, he’s just not in a mood right now.” I said. Yixing nods.
“I’m very sorry about earlier.” He said taking multiple of bows in front of us.
“No, it’s fine. Don’t mind it.” I said.
“Thank you.”
“By the way, which dorm are you staying?” I asked.
“I’m staying at the scholar’s dorm.” He replied.
“Really?! Wow! We’re the same!” I said.
“Let’s go.” Kris said then grabs me towards the door. I want to talk with Yixing because he looks friendly and at the same time we are on the same level but, this guy drags me.
“Uhm, I’ll catch you later Yixing! Good luck on your first day! Hwaiting!” I shout.
“Let’s Go.” Kris said.
“Okay Yumae! Nice to meet you!” Yixing replied.
