What happened
At 7:14 a.m. Seo-yeon pins the third torn page to the wall between the May rain sketch and Tae-oh's watering-can portrait. The three now face each other across the small room as if arguing about which version of her is true. THEREFORE at 8:14 a.m. she folds the sage-green blouse into the drawer and at 8:42 a.m. walks to the bus stop in the uniform she has chosen to wear. The September booking is still on her rotation. The investigation has not yet closed. The torn page has been read aloud but has not been mailed. The next month will tell, and the choice is hers again.
