Jessie sighed as Katherine walked past her, she had to wait a bit. After about thirty minutes the nurse that took the brunt of Patricia anger earlier, walked out.
"I'm so sorry, she wouldn't fall asleep." She said.
"It's alright. She didn't see you come out though." The nurse nodded.
"Did you get it all?"
"Ofcourse, I managed to get her face and keep Katherine out of the entire video." She said handing Jessie her phone.
"Thanks a lot, really I'm so grateful." Jessie smiled.
"It's no problem at all she's a vile person, I still can't believe you're really alive though." She said.
"It all thanks to her I'm in this situation, but don't worry it won't last forever. Please keep this a secret." She told the nurse.
"Ofcourse you're secret is safe with me."
Jessie hugged the nurse briefly and ran towards the elevator. She had to go get Katherine from jail.
***************************************************
Jessie stood at the entrance of the police station where they had brought her friend, she contemplated going in. She had to, how else could she save her. But if I'm caught it's game over right there. She drew in a long deep breath and pulled her mask up and her cap down. She decided against the shades since it would raise too much suspicion as to why she was wearing sunglasses indoors. So she hoped for once someone was not a fan of hers.
As she walked in and headed for the reception she sighted the cop that stood to receive people. She had an unfriendly face, wasn't too pretty but she wasn't ugly either. She was shorter than Jessie but if she was sitting then she'd be a giant then. She was quite plump and she barely had any hair on her head.
"How can I help you?" She asked as Jessie walked over to her.
Unable to give her charming smile for fear that she might give away her identity, she cleared her throat and decided to just get straight to the point.
"I'm here to see a detainee." She said.
"What's the detainee's name?" The cop asked.
"Katherine Park."
"Katherine... Park" the woman said as she searched the computer. "I'm sorry miss but there's no one by that name here."
"What do you mean there's no one by that name?" Jessie scoffed. "I saw them bring her in here!"
"Alright alright calm down" the woman said. "If she just came in, then she's not yet on the database."
"Ah... that's a good thing then. Can I see her?"
The cop held a finger up to signify that she wait, she picked up the landline by her side and made the call. "She's currently unavailable, as she is taking her mugshot."
"Mugshot! She didn't do anything wrong. Does that mean she is going to get a criminal record now?!" Jessie huffed.
"If she didn't do anything wrong why pray tell, is she in a police station right now?"
"I don't know, the broken system in this country perhaps?" Jessie snorted. "When can I see her?"
"Shortly, but before that might I ask your relationship with the detainee?"
Jessie paused for a bit thinking of her answer, if she said the wrong thing now she might not be allowed to see Katherine. "Why does that matter?"
The cop didn't fall for her tactics, instead gave her a pointed look that made her pout.
"She's my sister?"
"Are you asking me that?"
"No, no she is my sister."
"May I see some ID?"
"Uh.... you may not? Look I heard that my sister was arrested and rushed from where I was to come see her. I didn't have time to pick up my ID card. Surely you understand." She said with a small laugh.
"No I do not understand, miss Park? The only people that do not carry their Identity cards around are criminals and judging by your dressing I'd say you're coming from a bank robbery." The cop stated.
Jessie mouth widened in shock, the nerve of this woman. As she started to give the woman a piece of her mind a voice interrupted her.
"Jessie?"
She turned around and met gazes with Katherine. "Kate!" She exclaimed. She looked at the cop for permission and she motioned for Jessie to go.
She ran up to her new friend and gave her a tight hug.
"Oh my goodness Katherine, are you okay?" Jessie asked, fussing over her.
"I'm fine, truly." Katherine assured her.
"What do we need to do to get her out of here?" Jessie asked.
"Bail. You need to pay her bail, luckily for you it was set just two minutes ago." The cop that brought Katherine from the photograph room said.
"So? How much is my bail?" Katherine asked.
"One million dollars."
Both women had looks of shock written all over their faces, Jessie eyes widened and Katherine jaw dropped.
"One million dollars? It's not like I killed someone." Katherine gasped.
"Yeah well, I'm just following orders miss, if you don't have the money right now I would suggest you head over to the holding cell." He said.
Jessie gripped Katherine arm, "this isn't fair." She said.
"No? Call your lawyer then."
"Why is it so high? She being accused for a crime she didn't even commit. It all politics to appease some rich bitch!" Jessie huffed.
"You do know I did do it right?" Katherine whispered in to Jessie ears as she was standing behind her.
"Is that really the problem right now?" Jessie whispered back.
"Look, this shouldn't get out of hand. I'm warning you, don't forget that corruption is highly frowned upon in this country." Jessie argued.
"Look threatening the police isn't going to do anything right now, I would advise to bring your lawyer or forget about it. Miss come with me." He said curtly. Grabbing Katherine upper arm and walking her away to a cell.
Jessie followed behind them.
"What are you doing here?" He asked sighing out of frustration.
"You're not going to kick me out now to will you?" She asked. "I'm allowed to visit aren't I?"
"Fine, you have fifteen minutes. " He said, not willing to argue with the woman in front of him.
"What do we do?" Katherine asked, clutching to the bars like her life depended on it.
"Isn't Paul a lawyer?" Jessie asked.
"Yeah but I don't want his help." Katherine stated firmly.
"But Kate,"
"Don't Jessie I don't want his help. Besides there is no way he isn't going to tell Jason, how are you going to explain being in the hospital and being here right now?" Katherine asked.
"You are right, Jason can't find out I've been stalking Patricia which means I can't use his credit card either." She sighed.
"So what now? Do you not have up to a million dollars?" Jessie asked.
"All my money are tied up in investments right now." Katherine groaned.
"You're into investments? Didn't coin you for the money type." Jessie said.
"Well I'm tried of being treated the way I was today, and the only thing that ensures my safety right now is having more money than my oppressors." She said.
"Well in this country, name is more important than money sometimes Katherine." Jessie frowned.
"Yeah well, I can only do what I can right? I can't immediately have a powerful name, but I can certainly make the papers." She replied.
Jessie sighed, thinking hard, who could she call. If she had access to her own bank accounts she would be able to pay this in a heart beat. But this is were she was now, should she call her dad? No no no... her family couldn't know she was alive.
Then it came to her... someone that could help her. One of the people that she met in her current situation that wouldn't require her to do much explaining.
"I know someone that could help."
"Really?"
She nodded.
"Who is it?" Katherine asked.
"Uh.. I don't know his name, but he gave me his card." She said.
Pulling it out of her purse. "Jonathan Kang."
Katherine scrunched up her face, "why does that name sound familiar?" She asked.
"It sounds like Jason Kang?" Jessie shrugged.
Katherine nodded "yhup that's probably it, call him."
"Sure thing."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
