Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 115

Today Melanie is supposed to meet Beom-Soo, Jieun’s father or should she said, her secret alliance.  But, suddenly something coming up from her other sources makes her postpone their meeting.

“Fuh,”

While driving to her new destination, Melanie sighs heavily there while remembering what happened yesterday.  Its about Sarah, her student who suddenly comes into her office and seems to be looking for something.

She installed a closed circuit camera there because she had the blue meteor liquid before, which was already gone because drinking by Jieun, accidently.  She is afraid if someone with bad intentions breaks in there.  Someone who probably knows about the research of the rainbow meteor which is currently not a lot people know about that as the research about that already been banned. But, she never thought that one of her students will do this kind of things.  Behind her back!

Also, what makes her feel curious is because Sarah seems like a good girl as long as she knows her. She is also Jieun’s best friend.  So, why? What did the girl act like that? It was impossible for the girl to know about the research she was doing. But, other than that, she had nothing else at her office that have a lot of value. She can’t be in her office to get the next exam paper can’t she?

The longer she thought about the girl’s behavior, the more she had a headache. Because she doesn’t understand.  With that, she called Beom-Soo again, using a speaker as she is still driving.

Before, she already called him to postpone their meeting and she didn’t want to bother him about her new worry, but it seems like she needed his assistant also this time around.

Tut… Tut…

Only two ringing and the man picked up the call then.

‘Fast as usual’, Melanie smiles there remembering the past that is not important anymore.

“Yes. What can I do for you this time?” Beom-Soo keeps asking her that even though she hasn’t said anything yet. Melanie’s face frowned slightly then.

“What do you mean by that? It sounds like I always called you if I wanted something.” She actually just digs her own grave.

“If you don’t want something so what? Its not like you call me just because you wanted to hear my voice because of longing or anything. You’re always called to ask for help anyway.” Beom-Soo state the truth. Not understanding why on earth that woman even dare to deny the matter.

“Ahem…”

Clearing her throat as she already didn’t have any words to counter his sentence, she just stops beating around the bush now. Deciding to just be straight forward.

“Listen, I want you to help me find this person information.”

“Told you so.” Beom-Soo tease her with a light chuckle that she can hear but just ignoring it.

“Who is this person this time?”

“You know this person too. Its Sarah, Jieun’s best friend.”

Melanie didn’t hear anything from the man for a moment. She bets that Beom-Soo feeling a bit shocked knowing that.

“Why? Did she do something wrong? Or did she do something bad to Jieun?” Beom-Soo sound protective this time. He, didn’t like it if someone hurting Jieun.

“I’m sure she didn’t do anything to Jieun. But first, don’t tell Jieun about this as I didn’t want her to think too much. She already has a lot in her hands anyway.” Melanie wanted Beom-Soo to promise her.

“Alright. I also didn’t want to Jieun to feel sad. So what is this all about?”

“Yesterday, I saw Sarah from a CCTV that I installed, walk into my office while I was not in college. It looks like she was looking for something but it seems like she failed at whatever that she is searching. Nothing is missing.”

“Are you sure she is doing that? She probably just playing around or something.” Beom-Soo just doesn’t want them to misunderstand.

“I know what I saw Beom-Soo. But, it looks like she did it reluctantly.”

“You mean?”

“She seems very frustrated when she didn’t find anything and even cry a little bit there. My intention is someone force her to do this. And I want you to find out who that is.” Melanie finally gives the man a task.

“So you want me to find out who it is through Sarah’s personal data?”

“I have an intuition, I just wanted to confirm it. I don’t think the person who told her to do this is someone who has nothing to do with her. They at least must have some kind of relationship. Just find out about her family relationship, her personal things, whatever related. I will come to your house after I fetch something from my other sources. ”

“You got other sources? Are you sure you are doing okay Melanie? You always investigate this and that alone. Also, knowing you have other sources, its sound dangerous.” Beom-Soo expressed his concern for the woman.

“I’ll be fine.” Melanie actually sounds unsure. This new source actually she comes across it by chance. Saying that they got some information about the blue meteor stone. As she feels curious, she paid a lot of money just to get the paper, which she asks them to put it in her choices place.

Feeling unsure after hearing the woman’s voice just now, Beom-Soo said,

“Call me if anything happens. Don’t hesitate. I’ll be on standby.” He sounds serious.

Melanie smiles a bit listening to his worried tone. Of course she will call him. There’s no one else that she depends on now in this world other than him.

“I hang up now.” Melanie continued to disconnect the call at that point. She also already arrived at her destination.

After parking her car, she quickly moved into the building. Its actually a cemetery. She has actually come here every month, but after Jieun came into her life, she didn’t have time to come here.

“Hi Alex, sorry I didn’t come here for a long time now. Quite busy this day.” She started her talking as she usually does whenever she is here. He is the one that saved her life anyway. Although what Alex did was something that unacceptable, but she knows it well, he is not himself that day. The proof is, even in the chaos, he is still saving her that day. And she can’t thank him enough.

“Hello to you too Aaron.” Melanie said towards the grave located next to Alex’s. Its his son. Byung-Hun spent a lot of money to put them side by side years before.

Her eyes were now wildly searching for something.  There.  There was a document hidden in a crevice in the rock.

“Sorry again for having to use your house as a place for me to get this document. I feel a bit safer as you are here watching me anyway.” She said as she picked up the document.

Its actually a research paper about the blue meteor stone. As no one in the lab before doing a deeper research about this stone as the unfortunate things happen, she feels curious about this.  Hopefully it’s worth her time and of course her hard earn money.

“Sorry that I can’t be here longer this time.” Melanie laughs a little there. Realizing that she said it many times now.

“I got something to do. Lets hope all of this will end pretty soon. I want to retire early.” Melanie said that and now walked away holding the document.

As she walked, she felt something strange. As if someone looking at her from a far. She tries to look at her surroundings, but she can’t see any people here except her.  Did her intuition wrong this time?

But, just as a precaution, she walked fast right there and as soon as she was in the front building, she talked to the security guard who was there. Ask him to accompany her to her car.  And thankfully that security guards just agree with it.

At her parking place, she looks inside her car thoroughly also in the trunk at first because in the movie there is always someone pop up out of nowhere when the leading character trying to drive, so she is just being extra careful.  Not paranoid.  Just careful.  She saw too many dramas this days.

After feeling safe, she finally got in, locked her car there and opened her car window before saying her thank you to the security guard who was still faithfully waiting for her there.

Then she’s started to driving away with a light heart.

But, as she struggles to press the GPS, to find Beom-Soo’s home address that she actually save, she realizes that someone is trailing behind her. With a taxi.  It’s probably her being paranoid, but as to confirm she try to drive aimlessly. Still the same taxi following her.

Remember Beom-Soo words saying to call him if anything happens. She did that now. In fast.

“Hey, I think someone following me.”
