73 Innocen (1/2)

When they arrived at the police station they were greeted by an officer. He asked Ha Eun if she was the one he called on Eun Ha's behalf.

Ha Eun nodded. He turned to the side and pointed to the jail cell. The couple saw a little girl, holding a teddy bear.

”Why the hell do you have a child in there?!” Ha Eun yelled.

”It's not locked and she wanted to be in there. When we wouldn't let her she started making a racket annoying everyone that we just let her do whatever she wanted” the officer replied.

”Please, come” the officer to the couple. They followed the officer to his desk, which was right next to the cell.

Eun Ha noticed them, got closer to the bars and said ”Unnie!” The little girl waved at her with a smile.

”Get me out of here. I never thought being a prisoner was so hard.” Eun Ha said with a grim expression on her face. Suddenly two guys who were badly beaten up were walked right past her. It seemed the two of them fought. They looked at her shocked then their angered expressions had changed to that of fear.

”Hey kid, stop doing that. You're giving us a cops bad name” the officer told her with an exhausted expression on his face.

Ha Eun and Chang Wook looked at the little girl ”What did you do?” Ha Eun asked her.

”Nothing. I'm innocent, I swear” Eun Ha said. Ha Eun and Chang Wook looked at the officer. The officer got worried thinking that Ha Eun might hit him so he quickly sat down on his desk and urged the couple to sit as well.

”A neighbor called us to report a minor…” he pointed at Eun Ha ”…living alone.”

”And was she?” Chang Wook asked.

”No signs of her parents anywhere and she wouldn't tell us anything about them. She just came with us and pleaded the fifth.”

”I'll never talk!” Eun Ha said loudly.

The officer looked at her then looked away to take a deep breath ”Kid, you're not guilty of anything. We just want your mother or father's information.

The officer looked at Ha Eun and Chang Wook ”she was holding on to a business card with a phone number, so we decided to call it and you answered the phone.”

Ha Eun looked at Eun Ha, annoyed. She went through a lot last night, having a heated conversation with Woo Yeon, almost drowning, then almost doing it with Chang Wook to later cry on his shoulder and then, this morning, having to listen to her brother, talk about how he was interested in one of her employees. She really wasn't in the mood to deal with a child and the police.

”Could you tell me the relationship you share with the child?” the officer asked her.
