《The Battle Of The Riches | PENTHOUSE |》stolen keychain & ring
Advertisement
I look through my bag to see if I had any bandages I had some but not much I gave Seok-kyung some to help Seok-hoon. I received a call from my mom saying I needed to be home and it was late. "Ah I have to go my mom is asking for me I'll be here tomorrow for the lesson"
...
Here I am at seok twins house again in the afternoon "hey should I tell the tutor delay our lesson by 30 minutes I dont feel like working on a Saturday" she complains "sure why not it's not like we need tutoring." I answered.
Me and Seok-hoon we're studying and I don't know where Seok-kyung went but shes late. I looked up because I was thinking how to solve this math equation and I see Anna eating the snacks. I look out of the window and see Seok-kyung I smirk at her and eyed her to look at the tutor that was taking the snacks.
Seok-kyung walked in "can we finish early today?" Me and Seok-hoon look at her and I act like I didn't see her from the window. "Did you forget that we started late?" She answered.
"If we finish early, you can teach another lesson." She said looking a bit annoyed "you like money go do another lesson" she scoffed/laughed a bit "you got that right I like money" Anna sighed "I need to make money, that's why I need to stay and teach you guys."
" If I don't stick to the contract, I'll have to pay a penalty." She said looking at Seok-kyung. "I mean if we don't say a thing you don't have to pay a penalty you could just sneak out." I say. Anna looks at me on disbelief. She takes away Seok-kyung cheon ah arts high school application and makes her solve a math equation.
Seok-kyung snatches the application back "what's your problem? I don't want to do it get it in your head" she yells. "Is it because you don't know how to do it? I don't understand how you're the top student of cheong ah arts middle school" Anna says looking at an angry Seok-kyung. "In my opinion you're not that smart" she says. I take off my ring and place it on the table because it was the second thing that was irritating me. Seok-kyung slams the application on the table and stands up "get out of my room right now" she pushes Anna "now!" Seok-kyung starts walking towards Anna.

"I think we should finish today" I hear a male voice say and I look it was Seok-hoon. "We need to write our application for cheong ah arts high school" I added. "We all ready for permission from our parents"
"Okay fine I stead it's just for today" Anna says going to grab her bag.
I watch as Anna leave. I could tell Seok-hoon saw what she was doing but I didn't get what she was doing. "What are you doing?" Seok-hoon questions "She deserves to learn a lesson" Seok-kyung said smiling. "That way she'll learn not to act up. Let the show begin." I look at Seok-hoon worriedly.
She walks out and yells" my keyring and Junghwa's ring is gone" me and Seok-hoon follow behind to see what's going to happen.
"Appa got it for me and it's a limited addition and Junghwa's crying because her grandfather got the ring for her " Seok-kyung looks at Anna "Ms Lee did you take it? Both of the items were on my desk" She yells again. "I never took it" Anna explains herself.
"You guys should look for it again" Anna said annoyingly.
"Why don't you show me your bag to prove that you didn't take it? That's okay right?" Seok-kyung says. She grabbed her bag and starts to dump everything she grabs her keychain and my necklace. I gasp covering my mouth they all look at me. Seok-kyung looks back at Anna "what is this?" She holds up the items in her face. "Your a thief. You took my our stuff and my snacks." She yells.
"Seok-kyung that's enough, I'm sorry Ms Lee." Mrs Shim grabbed Anna stuff and puts it in her bag. "What do you mean it's enough?" Seok-kyung yells visibly mad. "She stole something from me and my best friend. How do you expect me to stay calm. You saw it for yourself how could you say that to me?" She yells.
"Don't let it bother you" Mrs Shim says and gives her stuff back to Anna. "Mom whose side are you taking?" She goes up to Mrs Shim face. "Are you seriously taking her side even though you're my mom?"
"Seok-kyung!" I hear Mr Joo yell. "How dare you talk to your mother that way!"
"The tutor stole something from us about mom keeps taking her side" she explains herself. "I didn't do it. I really didn't steal anything, why would I steal anything?" She said shaking. "Why was my ring and Seok-kyung keychain in your bag then I yell walking towards her but Seok-hoon holds me back. "I can easily tell why" Mr Joo says Mrs Shim looks at him disappointed "I think you should leave" Mr Joo finishes. "This is between my me, family and my best friend's daughter"

"Let me explain, honey" Mrs Shim says "first let me listen to what Seok-kyung and Junghwa have to say. They seem very angry" Mr Joo says looking at the girl. And Anna walks away to leave.
"We should let the cops investigate that" Mr Joo says as seok twins and me were following him. "When you see something valuable it's normal to feel the urge to possess it. I understand" He says as we walk closer. "We found the lost item so we'll let it slide if you apologize" he ends his sentence. "I don't want to apologize for something I didn't do." Anna replies.
"If you don't apologize it could get you in trouble. Isn't it weird? My daughters keyring and my best friend's daughter ring couldn't have gone on its own"
"Maybe Seok-kyung and Junghwa put it in my bag" Anna trying to get him to believe her. "What are you talking about? Why would we do that?" Seok-kyung says "How could we put it in your bag ? I was sitting with Seok-hoon the whole time and he didn't see any of that happened" I explain. "That's out of the line, what do you take our families for?" Mr Joo said sounding angry.
"I want you to apologize, I want you to apologize for suspecting the girls and for stealing something in her room."
Anna was still quiet "call the superintendent of Gangnam police" Mr Joo says as it's his final straw. "Okay sir"
"If you move an inch from there you'll also be charged for trying to run away"
"Wait" Anna says
"I'll apologize, I'll do it" she added.
Seok-kyung texted in the group chat, meet me at the summing pool. I didn't go because I didn't want Anna's face.
Seok-kyung pov
I sat in a chair in front of Anna as Minhyeok and Jenny walked in excitingly. "I'm sorry for suspecting you and Junghwa " Anna said
I look at her "and? You also need to apologize for stealing my keyring and junghwa ring. "
"I'm sorry, it won't ever happen again" she says lightly crying.
Jenny, Minhyeok and I laughed. "Okay I'll accept your apology but I'm not entirely satisfied with it" she walks away but Jenny blocks her way. "Where do you think you're going?" Jenny says stopping her. She trys to walk the other way but Minhyeok blocks her "aw do you think I'll let you go for stealing the junghwa ring?"
"Who do you think you are her boyfriend" Anna says looking mad. I see him whispering something into her ear. "By the way, Ms Lee..." I get up from the chair and walk towards her, I touch the side of her face with my hands "do you know that you really stink" I look at her in the eyes "you make me want to puke" then I push her in the pool. "Oh, my gosh! Did you seriously just do that?" Jenny laughs
"Your nuts" Jenny added laughing with me. As she swims to edge the 3 of us grabs pool equipment and starts to hit her with it. "Here you go" Jenny says throwing pool floats at her. "My gosh" Minhyeok says as Anna tries to grab on the handle of Minhyeok pool cleaning sticks.
" Where are you going ?" I ask "Ms Lee oh gosh" Jenny says. Anna tries to get out of the pool "you should've told me if you were hungry." I put my foot on her shoulder and kicked her down "I'm so disappointed that you even tried to steal our snacks. I guess she likes imported snacks" I say to Jenny "are you serious, I can't believe she tried to do that" Jenny says.
"Ms Lee, ms Lee" I yell at her she looks at me and I throw money at her "use this money to have your clothes cleaned"
"Let's go I say" walking away from this mess
