Woo Yeon looked at Ha Eun sadly. He remembered how she would always look at him with a smile.

”Can't we be like before, Ha Eun?” Woo Yeon asked her. Ha Eun started to become angry by his question ”We were always so close”

”I tried to contact you many times, especially after you came back but I could never reach you. I could never get past your assistant”

Ha Eun didn't want to answer. She wanted this conversation to be over.

”Do you remember when you wanted ice cream, but Ji Su wouldn't let you have any and Ji Hyun yelled at you for bullying Ji Su?” Woo Yeon asked her. Ha Eun didn't know why he was bringing up such a memory ”I ran all the way to the nearest ice cream store and bought you all the flavors because I didn't know what flavor you liked”

Ha Eun chuckled. She remembered that day. He knocked on her bedroom window and when she opened it he threw on her so much ice cream. She couldn't take them to the fridge, so she had to eat them all in her room.

”I got a huge stomachache after that” Ha Eun said. Woo Yeon laughed. He missed laughing like that with her.

”And that time that I took you bike riding because you didn't know how” Woo Yeon said.

”You wouldn't let me go until I could last 10 seconds without falling off” Ha Eun smiled.

”It took all day, but you were finally able to do it” Woo Yeon laughed.

”And that one time at school when you were being bullied by some girls. To get them off you I threw dirty bucket water on them”

By that memory, Ha Eun was finally brought back to reality. She shouldn't be talking with him. She quickly got up. In the process, splashing water on him. Ha Eun started to walk back into the house. She'll get Chang Wook and make an excuse to Mr. Oh about jet lag.

”What…what did I do?” Woo Yeon asked.

Ha Eun turned around ”You know exactly what you did!” she yelled at him. Woo Yeon looked down and sighed.

”What do you want me to say?” he asked her. Woo Yeon was trying his best to gain her sympathy and bring back the kind Ha Eun he once knew but, Ha Eun looked at him angrily.

”What do I want you to say?” Ha Eun asked ”You really want to know?” Woo Yeon nodded. She couldn't stand to look at him, the one thing she wanted to hear from him was pretty obvious, yet he had to ask.

”It's the one word that isn't in your vocabulary” Ha Eun said and walked away.

Woo Yeon ran after her. When he grabbed her arm, a man appeared by the door. He had messy hair and wrinkled clothes. Obviously a commoner but, what was one of them doing here? Was he a new servant? He can't be, even the servants dressed better than him and they have a uniform.

”Ha Eun, you okay?” Chang Wook asked Ha Eun. She looked sad and angry. An expression he's never seen on her face before, which worried him even more ”Come here” he said.

With that, Ha Eun shook her arm out of Woo Yeon's grasp, and hurried into Chang Wook's embrace, burying her face in his chest.

”Who the hell are you?” Woo Yeon asked, looking angry.
