Chapter 121 - Locked (2/2)

Startled, Jinhee abruptly jumped back, and her back collided with the bookshelf harshly. Pain immediately went through her body.

Moving away from the bookshelf, Jinhee was about to walk towards her mobile phone when the bookshelf lost its balance and was about to fall down.

Before Jinhee could comprehend the the situation, the bookshelf came down on her, and a loud scream left Jinhee's mouth.

°°°

An ominous feeling formed within Taehee when she noticed that Jinhee hadn't returned yet. Recalling the events earlier today, she couldn't help but think something wrong went with her.

The day was extremely busy for Taehee today, and she was helpless when it came to looking out for Jinhee today.

When she returned at the dorm room at few minutes after nine, she was surprised to not see Lee Jinhee there.

She tried calling Jinhee's phone, but it appeared to be switched off, and anxiety within her increased.

Avoiding her work today was impossible for Taehee for she was situations those she could not control either.

Unable to wait a second more, Taehee opened the door to her room and rushed outside frantically in order to search for Jinhee.

At the same time, she took out her smartphone and decided to call Chaewon. There were chances of Jinhee being with her and spending the night over at her place.

When the call was picked up, Taehee immediately questioned, "Is Jinhee there with you?"

"No, I haven't seen her for the entire day. Is something the—"

Before Chaewon could reply, Taehee cut off the call and decided to pay a visit to the dorm teacher. Maybe Jinhee had taken a leave.

Running down the stairs, Taehee silently prayed for Jinhee to be safe. If something were to happen to her, Taehee would blame herself and probably wouldn't be able to survive.

She should not have listened to Jinhee's word earlier and should have made the matter clear.

Taehee wanted to see Jinhee become strong against these, but that definitely was a wrong decision.

Due of her situation, Taehee can not be beside Jinhee for the entire time and wanted for Jinhee to learn to fight for herself. But now she was regretting that decision.

"You idiot! This is all your fault! Jinhee is suffering just because of you!" Taehee mumbled to herself whilst cursing to herself mentally.

Taehee stopped in her steps when she was in front of the dorm teacher's door, and without knocking, she slammed open the door.
