The Song's were taken to the hospital where they received treatment. Even though the Song's were confused by the whole event, they decided not to press charges against Jina and the others for trespassing on their property.
The murderer was officially charged and the defense was pleading for an insanity plea to reduce his sentence. But the police had strong evidence against him and Jina was working with the prosecutors to push for the death sentence instead. The extent of his crimes were too horrific and leaving him in an asylum would not be the safest option.
Over the next few days, everyone was busy giving their statements. Hobin filed his report on the psychoanalysis on Seokhyun and he gave crucial information based on his experience that Seokhyun was of sound mind when he committed the murder. There were other psychiatrists who were of the same opinion as him so the culprit's fate was going to be sealed.
Life was finally returning to normal with the poltergeist gone. Minyoon was able to carry out his schedules while Sera returned to school. The Jung's were pushing for a more inclusive system where the children would not be involved in bullying others. It was mandatory for everyone to attend counseling and also do sessions on anti-bullying. Some of the students protested but it was of no use because the situation went out of hand. With the rumors of Rachel's burn book and pornography scandal, many of the students were being punished severely for their actions.
"Life sure is peaceful," Minyoon remarked one day. They were in class, waiting for the teacher. Yoonmin was sitting on a chair, reading a book while Minyoon sat on the desk, idly chatting.
"For now," Yoonmin said, not looking up. "But for how long will it be peaceful?"
"Meh, what's life without a little money and adventure?" Minyoon winked.
"Says the guy who can't do math."
"It's hard, ya know!"
Minyoon pouted but his grumpiness went away when he saw a familiar figure.
"Binbin!" Minyoon called and waved at Soobin who had just entered the class. Yoonmin's ears went red and he hid his face behind the book.
"Minmin," she greeted back, a little breathless.
"Did you move into Doctor Kang's mansion? How is it living there?"
"Great!" Soobin exclaimed. "Doctor Kang is busy most of the time but he helps me out with my school work and also gives me several tips on how to apply for medical schools! The staff at his mansion are very kind too. They look after me well."
Siwan officially took over as her legal guardian in the city. Soobin still worked in various places to earn money but now that she did not have to worry about rent or food costs, she would be able to save up a lot more than she expected.
And I can buy all of Minmin's merchandise! Soobin thought gleefully.
As if reading her mind, Yoonmin said, "You must be thrilled. More money for your favorite idol."
"I hope I'm your favorite idol," Minyoon added, flashing a smile. "Newest picture book cost a total of 55 dollars with taxes."
"It's 60 dollars with taxes!" Yoonmin snapped. "Honestly, open a math book once in a while!"
"Math makes my good looks go sour," Minyoon claimed. "I love money but not counting it!"
Soobin giggled while Yoonmin scowled at his brother. How was he able to mesh so easily with her while Yoonmin struggled so much? They looked the same!
"H-hey guys!"
They turned around to find Sera who was standing there, feeling awkward. She did not dare to look at Yoonmin and blushed hard.
"Sera!" Minyoon greeted cheerfully. "How are things at home now?"
"Better," Sera replied. "Mom stopped being neurotic and is calmer now. My brother is still reeling from Rachel's death but he'll be fine. Doctor Ohm is great! He has been giving me therapy sessions and I feel a lot better."
"Any news about the Song's?" Yoonmin asked.
"T-they are moving abroad," Sera stammered, looking at her feet. "A-away from a-a-all this."
She was blushing hard, making Minyoon frown a little. He looked from her to his clueless brother who did not seem to notice anything else but Soobin.
Ahh, my brother is the center of a love triangle, he thought in amusement.
The teacher entered the class and everyone scrambled to their seats. Sera was about to sit next to Yoonmin but Minyoon took the seat next to his brother. She winced a little and went to sit with Soobin.
"Class, there is a special announcement," the teacher informed them. "The summer festival is coming up and we have to prepare for it. This year, our class will be responsible for the art house cafe!"
There was an exciting murmur among the students. They were very much thrilled for the festival and began to whisper about it.
"If anyone has any artworks which they want to be displayed, submit it to me by the end of this week," the teacher went on. "Also, the roles need to be assigned by then as well. Let me know!"
"Summer festival?" Soobin whispered to Sera.
"We do it every year," Sera explained. "It's part of the school's tradition. Every year, one class gets an award for the best presentation. We've been winning it almost every year thanks to the Hwang twins."
She peeked a shy glance at Yoonin who was still nonchalant.
"Minmin performs, huh?" Soobin asked.
"Yes. He does. Yoonmin takes over the finances and assigns the roles. He's really awesome, don't you think?"
Soobin's eyes also briefly darted to Yoonmin. He was still reading that book of his but Soobin slightly smiled. Even though he was a money obsessed weirdo, she saw a softer side to him at the hospital. He cared about his family in his own strange way and was very protective of his siblings.
"He is quite awesome," Soobin agreed. "A little eccentric but a good, kind hearted person."
Sera gave her a quizzical look but did not say anything. They turned their attention back to the teacher who was now starting the class.
At the far end of the class, a stubby boy with thick fingers and dark curly hair was looking down at his notebook but he was not paying any attention to the teacher. His mind was full of other thoughts. Sweat rolled down from his tanned skin and he was quite nervous.
Art cafe, huh? He thought. I think I can get rid of that thing in this festival.
