Dreaming of you-Chapter 39: Tears of Justice
Jung-hee and I return to the funeral. When we come to the funeral, we see the police there. We are surprised to see the police there. The police were talking to Brother Yohan and mom. The worry on their faces is clearly visible.
I step forward and ask, " What’s wrong? Sir, why are you here? "
"Su-jin, you’re here!" Brother Yohan says.
"Yes. But why did the police come here?"
"Actually they want to take us to the police station. They think we killed Taewon and min-ho and then pretend to be victims."
"What? You saw us at that time, right? You also saw what happened to Yeong-ae. So why do you doubt us? "
"Miss su-jin, As far as I remember you were suspected in the case of your classmate Ha-na’s death. And now you are involved in this case as well. So you are the first on our list of suspects."
"But then it was proved that I am innocent... Now why you talking about that time? How can you doubt me now, Based on the past?"
The police officer doesn’t answer anymore. He motions the others policemens who come with him to arrest us. The police arrested us and take us to they’re car.

I sit in the interrogation room. A policeman stand in front of me.
The police ask, "Why did you go to that building that day?"
"We have told you this before. So what is the point of asking this question again now?"
"I am doing my job. You are bound to answer whatever I ask you. And if I ask a question one hundred times, you have to answer the same question one hundred times. " the policeman shouted.
I look surprised. I say with a trembling voice, "Why you shouting?"
"How else can I talk to a criminal? "
" Do you have any proof that I am a criminal? You have no proof. Since you still have no evidence and it has not been proven that I am guilty, you cannot treat me like this." I say in a calm voice.
The police officer feels very annoyed after hearing my words.
"Then answer my question quickly."
"We were looking for Yeong-ae."
"How did you know Yeong-ae is in that building?"
"Min-ho messaged us."
The cop laughs sheepishly, "So Min-ho took you there and then she tried to kill you? Wow, what a story.... You should start writing storys.."
Seeing the cop talking like this, I immediately took out my phone and showed all of Min-ho’s messages. I glare at the police officer. The police officer gets a little nervous when he sees my stare.
"Okay. You can go now."
As Su-jin leaves, the police officer looks at the other cops and says.
"Kids these days are very aggressive."

I comes out and sees Se-ra sitting outside. Se-ra moves a little to the side when she sees me. I sit next to Se-ra without a word. Things become awkward between the two of us. But I speak first.
"Did you do this? I thought, you might change yourself after that night. I thought, You will suffer punishment by hunting your fault and change yourself. But again, you prove me wrong...." Su-jin looks at Se-ra in disbelief.
I finishe my speech and gets up to leave. Se-ra sits with her head down.
__
Today is the first day of court. Me, Brother Yohan, Jung-hee, Sun-hee and Se-ra are also present at the court. As the judge arrives, everyone stands up to respect to the judge. Everyone sat down as soon as the judge sat down. Then the court proceedings began.
My lawyer begins his work. Se-ra is brought to the court’s witness stand. My lawyer asks,
"So you were there that day too, right?"
"Yeah"
"You have been charged with bullying and violence. I hope you are aware of that."
se-ra is silent. Seeing Se-ra remain silent, the lawyer says,
"We have proof. So I hope you think about what you say and speak the truth. Did you know Ha-na? "
"Yes."
"What relationship did you have with Ha-na?"
"She was one of my classmate."
"Have you been involved in bullying?"
Se-ra no longer replies. Head down.
"If you’re so quiet, I’ll take your silence as a yes."
Se-ra remains silent this time. The lawyer gets angry to see Se-ra remain silent. This time he directly slanders Se-ra to get the words out of Se-ra’s mouth.
"You are the one who kidnapped Yeong-ae. You are the one who killed Taewon and min-ho. And also you killed Ha-na. "
Se-ra is traumatized by the lawyer’s shouting. The scene of Ha-na and Taewon’s death flashed before her eyes.
Se-ra screams and cries, "Noooo.... I didn’t kill Ha-na.... I didn’t kill her.... I didn’t."
Seeing Se-ra so traumatized, the female policeman takes Se-ra away. As Se-ra leaves, the lawyer goes to his place. Seeing Se-ra do this, it’s reminds me of something from my past. Due to which my anxiety disease started.
flashback-
Su-jin is put on the witness stand for the case of Ha-na’s death. Su-jin is being asked a lot of questions. She is being stressed. Everyone in the court stares at Su-jin. Everyone is talking about her. Everyone thinks she kill her best friend, Ha-na. Su-jin can’t bear these things. At some point she lose her consciousness.
Currently-
What happened to my that day is happening to Se-ra today. The same incident, the same pain and the same stress I can see happening before my eyes with another person.

Brother Yohan and I arrive at the hospital at once from the court. Upon arriving at the hospital, he goes to talk to the doctor and I goes to Yeong-ae. I sit next to Yeong-ae’s bed.
Then after looking at Yeong-ae for a while I said,
"Yeong-ae, you don’t like to sleep, right? So why are you sleeping like this now? Look, winter will coming. After a few days, it will start snowing. We had a lot of plans. Have you forgotten? If not then why are you sleeping like this? Let’s get up quickly, I won’t wait for you. Can you hear me? I said, I will leave you alone. "
I cries. I repeatedly tells Yeong-ae to get up. But Yeong-ae isn’t getting up.
She went into a coma. Today, Yeong-ae is in a coma due to Se-ra’s beating that day. 5 days have passed but since that day, Yeong-ae has not recovered from her coma.
"You know Yeong-ae, the doctor said if you don’t come back from the coma within 1 month you will never recover. How can they say that? How healthy and strong you are. Prove all the doctors wrong by get up. Show them your strength. Get up Yeong-ae.... Get up.... I can’t lose you now.... You said you will always stay by my side. Then what happened? Why you not getting up? "
I wipes away my tears. Then I hold Yeong-ae’s hands and say,
"Ha-na and Taewon oppa both left me. Everyone left me alone. Everyone who promised to be with me forever left. Now please don’t join them. You have to stay with me Yeong-ae.... You have to get well again. Please.... "
I holds Yeong-ae’s hand and cries.
Maybe Yeong-ae can hear su-jin’s crying too. So maybe that’s why tears come from her eyes.
