Title: Light
Series: 유령/Ghost
Characters: Yoo Kang Mi, Kim Woo Hyun
Summary: He appeared to her as the light that pulled her out from the darkness.
------------
"Student... err, Miss... are you all right now?"
He appeared to her like a light that shone amidst the darkness of her heart. Like a saviour...
The man gently wrapped his arm around her. "Can you stand? Let's talk a bit more elsewhere, is that alright with you?"
She nodded as the man took her outside of the dormitory room, towards the cafeteria. Thankfully, there were less student around... since because of the incident with Eun Sol the school have gathered all of the student for an emergency assembly. Well, almost all of the students.
"Here..." said the man as he returned after buying some drinks. She took the offered juice and sip on it.
It turned out that the man was a Cyber Investigator, a policeman. Aside from helping the normal policemen with the investigation, he was also tasked to investigate whether or not Eun Sol had been a victim of bullying.
Kang Mi's tears started to fall again as she started thinking about Eun Sol.
"It's alright. You can tell me slowly... you don't have to rush it," said the detective, who introduced himself to her as the Team Leader of the Cyber Investigations Team; Detective Kim Woo Hyun. He seemed to be a very kind... policeman.
Detective Kim Woo Hyun patted her head gently. "Now tell me... what did you mean when you said you killed Eun Sol? Were you close with her?"
Kang Mi nodded her head. "It's all my fault. Because I couldn't believe that Eun Sol's grade could improve so drastically; even better than me, that I just said things without thinking. And then the other students overheard what I said... and started bullying her." She hastily wiped the tears that has already been pouring endlessly.
Detective Kim sat beside her and placed a hand on her shoulder to calm her down.
"And then... what happened after?"
She hiccuped. "The other girls dragged Eun Sol to the storeroom and locked it so that Eun Sol couldn't attend the classes. Because they thought Eun Sol cheated in the exams... so they wanted to teach her a lesson. I did nothing to help her and just watch. The grades are very important in this school... everyone gets so competitive. That's why... whenever anyone was suspected to have been cheating..." She cried again. "It's all my fault! I should have been there for her... I should've known that Eun Sol wouldn't do something like that! Eun Sol... must have tried really hard to score so well! I should have protected her!"
Her heart felt as if it could be ripped out of her chest. She cried again despite the detective's presence beside her giving her the comfort she seek.
"I'm going back to your room to check on Eun Sol's computer. Do you want me to accompany you to where the other students were gathering?"
Kang Mi shook her head. "I'll go with you." She said before wiping her tears away. "I don't know if Eun Sol had been bullied online as well... but I'll help you. It's... something I should at least do for her."
"Okay..." said Woo Hyun as both of them left for the dormitories...

"Are you sure that you want to do this now?" asked Detective Kim to her as Kang Mi nodded. The man smiled. "Good girl," he said as he held out his hand to her, in which she grabbed it. Detective Kim's firm grip on her hand was really reassuring.
Another officer walked up to them as Detective Kim turned his attention towards him.
"Team Leader, we've had everything set up now," said the older detective as Detective Kim nodded.
"Thank you, Detective Han," he said before giving her another reassuring smile. "Let's go..."
And then on that day, she had mustered her courage to call out every single student that she knew were involved with Eun Sol's bullying incident. The girls were then given harsh punishment by the school as well as their share of scoldings from the investigating team. In the end, everything turned out all right.
Still, it did not make her feel any better. Her guilt for letting Eun Sol die like that. That feeling still remained, and that incident... remained to be the worst memory of her school life.
