Yoonmin saw that his sister was puzzled by his sudden appearance. She was one of the few people who could tell the twins apart and it seemed that her psychiatrist partner also figured it out. Soobin, however, was beaming at him in a shy manner which took him by surprise.

Did she not recognize me? He thought, feeling a little hurt. Tch!

"What are you doing here?" Jina asked suspiciously. "Where's your other half?"

"You mean Yoonmin?" Yoonmin asked. "He's busy babysitting Miyoo!"

He sounded a little nervous. Unlike Minyoon who could pull off a twin switch, Yoonmin was terrible at it. Thankfully, his sister and the doctor were not making any remarks. 

"Minmin, I thought you said you won't come!" Soobin exclaimed. "But I'm glad you're here! Sera will be happy to see you!"

"Y-yes," he muttered. "How is she now?"

"She's fine," Soobin told him. "A little upset but I think she'll get over it. We just have to make sure those nasty kids don't come near her at school."

"What happened to Sera?" Hobin asked sharply.

"Well…" Soobin quickly described what happened at school, shocking both Jina and Hobin.

"And they took pictures of her in that state?" Jina was disgusted by the kids who participated in the bullying. "That's horrible!"

"It was," Yoonmin nodded. "Luckily, she wasn't hurt. Whoever did that to her wasn't even caught. It's like the person vanished in thin air."

Jina's eyes widened a little at his last words. It was obvious that he was trying to give her a hint but could not do so in front of Soobin. Was Rachel back as a ghost?

But how come I didn't see her? Jina wondered. If I could only talk to Yoonmin in private…

She shot a pleading gaze at Hobin who nodded. "Soobin, take me to your friend," he said. "I might be able to help her. It'll be good if she talks to someone."

"Good idea!" Soobin agreed. "Let's go doctor!"

She led Hobin away. He nodded at Jina before following Soobin. Jina then rounded on Yoonmin.

"You, speak!" she hissed. "Why are you disguised as Minyoon? Where is he?"

"Sis, that Rachel girl isn't gone," he revealed. "She's a poltergeist. And now, she's after everyone whom she hated."

He recapped everything Junho told him and why he was pretending to be Minyoon at the party.

"We are trying to hide Minyoon until this case is solved and the poltergeist leaves," he concluded. "Grandpa is preparing an amulet for him. And now that Miyoo saw the poltergeist, she's scared as hell."

"Ugh!" Jina scowled. "Not another one! I hate these things!"

"Oh yeah, the old man mentioned that you dealt with a poltergeist before," Yoonmin realized. "Was it as scary as the old man claimed?"

"Scarier," Jina shivered. "But…"

She glanced at Hobin who was now talking to Sera at a corner. He was smiling at her as if trying to win her over. Jina bit her lip in worry.

The poltergeist she had encountered many years ago was the one which killed Siwan's father. Would this bring up any of those bad memories for Hobin's family? 

"Anyways," she said, tearing her eyes away from the doctor. "We need to talk to Hyojin and also, keep an eye on Sera. If she was Rachel's enemy, then surely Rachel would come after her."

"It all makes sense now," she went on. "When I passed by the ladies' washroom in the school, I felt something was off. There were no spirits in it but I definitely sensed some dark activity. No wonder I haven't seen the poltergeist yet! It's latched onto the people it hated in life. Which is why it's going around tormenting them only. Normal spirits will travel anywhere which is why I run into them often. Poltergeists only stalk their intended victims so it's rare for me to run into them unless they appear in front of me. That must be why Miyoo saw it too. She saw it when the poltergeist was about to attack Minyoon."

"Well, Minyoon is under protection spell so I doubt Rachel would be there," Yoonmin said. "And the college guy she slept with is also in a coma. That leaves…"

"Sera and Rachel's dad," Jina concluded. She paused before adding, "And I'm guessing that the poltergeist will find two of her victims here so she won't stay away."

Yoonmin frowned before following her gaze. Song Yohan had just arrived, wearing a dapper suit. His greying hair was neatly combed and he looked elegant and arrogant. People around him were murmuring with curiosity.

"Didn't his daughter just die?" Lan was whispering to the guests. "Why is he here?"

"Isn't it heartless? His daughter isn't even buried!"

"What a crazy guy!"

Yohan ignored all their comments and kept on walking forward, his head held high. Even Jina was taken aback by his indifference to his daughter's death. How could a man be so cold?

"Man, seeing this guy makes me feel that my family is much better!" Jina muttered. "We might be petty but at least we aren't as cold hearted as him!"

"No, we're just a bunch of crazy idiots who drive mom nuts," Yoonmin snorted. Jina giggled and patted her brother on the head.

Meanwhile, Hobin was conversing with Sera while Soobin stood nearby.

"You must have had it rough," Hobin told Sera. "Having to put up with so much bullying."

Sera looked at her locked fingers, trying not to cry. "They call me a Hippo at school," she whispered sadly. "I don't even know what I did wrong. When I was new to the school, I barely made any friends whereas my brother was damn popular. He's the golden child while I was the dark horse in the family. Mom and dad love me but I was just so lonely at school…"

"Are you jealous of your brother?" Hobin asked gently. Sera looked mortified but he patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay. It's a natural thing."

He took a deep breath and added, "I have a brother too. He loves me a lot and has protected me all his life. But sometimes, I feel really resentful."

"Why?" Sera asked curiously.

"I love him but I was also jealous of him," Hobin admitted. "You see, I was the loner in the family. My mom and brother were good to me but there was always a nagging feeling in my heart that I didn't belong with them. Something in my head used to torment me for even thinking of myself to be a part of their family…"

His voice croaked as he recalled the times he had been envious of Siwan for having an identity. Siwan did not have to worry about who his parents were nor about how to control any unwanted powers. He lived a normal life, growing and laughing like a kind person that Hobin saw him as. Hobin, on the other hand, had to fight everyday against his own powers, hiding them from the world. Even though Doyoung doted on both of them, Hobin felt that he was still an outsider.

And he hated himself for thinking that way.

"Most of us are jealous of our siblings…" he said. His gaze temporarily fell on Jina and Yoonmin who were now smiling freely, no traces of malice of envy between them. 

"But in the end, we'll protect them with our lives," Hobin smiled. "Nothing is more complicated than the relationship between siblings. So it's okay. If you were jealous of him, then it's okay. You've got nothing to be ashamed of."

"I really am jealous of my brother," Sera sobbed. "But I do care for him. I really do! It was Rachel who was using him."

"Rachel?" Hobin asked, feigning ignorance. "Who's that?"

"My brother's ex," she replied in a thick voice. "Doctor, don't tell anyone but I knew that she was cheating on him. I was out shopping a few months ago and caught her kissing another guy! A college guy. She spotted me and since then, threatened me not to tell her brother. She made my life miserable! Even paid one of her guy friends to pretend to like me and when I confessed to him, he humiliated me in front of the entire school! They taped the confession and sent the video to all the students to shame me!"

Her eyes were now welled up with tears. "Even my brother maintained a distance from me at school. He said that he could not risk his reputation and be seen with a loser like me! Out of anger, I didn't tell him what his girlfriend was doing to him."

"But karma got that bitch!" Sera claimed. "Her bad deeds caught up to her and now look what happened to her."

Hobin observed the girl who was now crying a lot. But there was a visible bitterness in her tone which was spewing out.

"Only Tommy was my real friend at that time," Sera went on. "And now, Soobin is also kind to me. I'm glad that she made me talk to you. I feel really good."

"Who's Tommy?" Hobin asked.

"Tommy is our pet dog," Sera revealed, wiping her eyes. "A German Shepherd."
