Sera woke up in the hospital where the doctors had treated her. She was not sure how long she had been there but she saw Soobin's worried face in front of her.

"Where am I?" Sera croaked.

"At the hospital!" Soobin replied. "Are you okay?"

Jina and Hobin were also in the ward where Sera was admitted. She was confused and dazed because the doctors had sedated her. They said that she was not seriously hurt but needed rest so that she could recuperate.

Hobin had called Jina and informed her about Sera's possible involvement in Rachel's death. She immediately rushed to meet up with him at Sera's house where the rest of the events occurred.

"What...happened?" Sera asked. "And why are they here?"

She pointed at Jina and Hobin who were still there, watching her. Jina sat at the foot of the bed, attempting to be gentle.

"Sera, you were attacked in your house," Jina explained. "Someone tried to kill you and we managed to save you. When we removed the blanket from you, there were marks of strangulation around your neck."

Sera's eyes widened in shock. The memories were now rushing back to her and Rachel's cold voice was resonating in her head.

"Did you listen to my pleas?" the voice had demanded. "When I was begging you? When I was at your mercy? Did you save me?"

She was now shaking in fear and sat up only to feel dizzy.

"Don't stress yourself!" Soobin told her but Sera was holding onto her for life.

"It was Rachel!" Sera claimed. "I know it! It was her!"

"But…" Soobin was thoroughly confused. She did not see anyone in the room. In fact, she had met up with Hobin and Jina at the doorstep and they heard Sera's cries. The front door was locked so Jina broke the living room's window and all of them climbed through it. They found Sera wrapped around in a blanket and screaming but there was no one in sight.

However, the detective had thrown salt at something invisible which only made Soobin more bewildered.

"Sera, why do you think it was Rachel?" Hobin asked. "She's dead."

"It was her!" Sera insisted. "I know it was! She's gonna kill me! I swear I'm telling the truth…"

Sera started to sob. The voice, the hatred in it had scared her and she was sure that it was Rachel. Only she hated Sera that much and was even willing to come back from the dead only to kill her. Sera was not imagining things at all!

"Soobin, can you wait outside?" Jina requested. "We want to talk to Sera alone. Also, if you see Sera's mother, then stop her from entering. Doctor Ohm and I will be talking to her."

"Why-" Sera began to ask but Jina shot her down.

"If you want to get out of this mess, then you'll have to listen to us," she said in a steely tone. "Your mother will only increase our problems and the more we delay, the more you're in danger. Next time, we might not be able to save you."

That shut Sera up. The fact that Rachel was haunting her from the grave was a nightmarish thought and she was trembling at the memory of her near death experience. 

Soobin seemed to have gotten the gist of the seriousness of the situation and nodded.

"I'll do everything I can to stop her!" she promised and hurried out of the ward. Hobin closed the door shut and spun a chair around to sit next to Sera's bed.

"Sera, you know very well what you heard there," he said. "Tell us exactly what happened.

"I'm telling you that it was Rachel!" she claimed. "I was home alone and about to fall asleep when the blanket was pulled off of me! There was no one there but suddenly, the blanket was wrapped tightly around me and I felt a pair of hands choking me. I heard Rachel's voice which…"

Sera trailed off, looking away. She felt really guilty and scared of telling the next few words because it was going to incriminate her. Jina seemed to have understood her dilemma.

"Sera, if you've done nothing then you have nothing to worry about," Jina stressed. "But if you have seen something on the night of Rachel's death-"

"I don't know!" Sera lied. "I wasn't there-"

"Your face was caught on camera," Hobin stated. "We know you're a witness. Now, you can either tell us the truth right now and agree to cooperate with us without getting arrested. Otherwise, we'll have to go through the procedures and be forced to arrest you. The latter is not going to be pretty. Your brother has an alibi for that night but you won't be lucky. If the evidence is against you, then you'll be sent to juvie. Do you want that, Sera?"

Sera was now even more nervous. She was sweating heavily, scared by the prospect of being jailed.

"B-But I didn't do anything!" she said. "I really didn't!"

"You were caught on the camera, Sera," Jina said. "Your name is in Rachel's burn book. You have way too many reasons to kill her. And given that you have trained a German Shepherd, you're a very strong suspect. Only you have the extreme level of hatred for her."

Jina was trying to be as gentle as possible but the truth was only scaring Sera. Hobin quickly jumped in.

"But if you tell us the truth, then we can save you," Hobin said. "From the police and also Rachel's ghost."

"Y-You believe me?" Sera asked in astonishment. Jina shot a confused look at Hobin. What was he doing? 

Don't expose my powers! She prayed inwardly.

"In my profession, I've come across people who have encountered ghosts," he lied smoothly. "I know that Detective Hwang here doesn't believe in ghosts but I do. I'm a psychiatrist and I know that some things can't be explained with science. So yes, Sera. I believe you."

"Why would Rachel's ghost come back?" Jina asked out loud, playing along with his scheme. "It's really rubbish! I'm sure that Sera is hiding something about the murder but a ghost? That's impossible-"

"She will come back and she will come back to kill me!" Sera burst out. "I know it! Rachel hated me for exposing her affair to my brother. I was the one who tricked him into going to that college party that night so that he could see her deeds! She has hated me since then."

Sera was now crying hard, making Jina and Hobin feel pity for her. She was clearly distressed but they had to weasel out the truth from her.

"And now, she hates me even after death because I…," Sera began. "Because, I didn't save her that night! She knows it and now she's punishing me for not saving her."

Jina and Hobin looked at each other.

"What do you mean that she's punishing you for not saving her?" Jina asked slowly.

Sera took a deep breath and began to narrate. "That night, I went to her house to confront her about what she did to me," Sera revealed. "But what I saw shook me to the core."
