74 At the park (1/2)

Inside the car, Ha Eun ended up sitting on Chang Wook's lap, leaving Eun Ha two whole seats. The couple stared at her as she played with the teddy bear in her hands.

Ha Eun couldn't understand how the child didn't seem at all uncomfortable with the situation she was in. She was going to be living with strangers.

Chang Wook, on the other hand, was thinking about how Ha Eun was sitting on his lap. He felt blessed. If Eun Ha weren't here, he would have kissed his wife in an instant.

The girl stopped playing with the teddy bear and just looked out the window. She seemed to start pouting, so Chang Wook asked her ”Would you like something to eat?”

The little girl looked at them; then she looked down. She shrugged and looked back out the window. Chang Wook could understand that being left alone and suddenly moving in with strangers must come as quite a shock to her, so he decided not to ask anything else.

”Why are you moping?” Ha Eun asked her. Chang Wook looked at Ha Eun shocked. Does this woman not understand the situation they are in? ”You're mom's not around, I get it but, you could at least talk to the people that are going to be providing you with food.”

”Did I ask you to take me and provide for me?” Eun Ha snapped back ”I was just fine all alone, stupid nosy neighbors that can't mind their own business” Eun Ha groaned. Ha Eun squinted her eyes.

Chang Wook worried she would yell at the poor kid, but Ha Eun yelled at the driver to turn around and head to the Amusement Park.

Eun Ha looked at Ha Eun with wide eyes, and so did Chang Wook. They had to head into work. They were already late by a few hours.

”Is it really okay, skipping work?” Chang Wook asked Ha Eun.

Ha Eun raised her eyebrows at Chang Wook ”I'm just doing what you did when we skipped work to go on that last-minute date idea of yours.”

…

When they arrived at the park, Eun Ha was starstruck. She had never gone to the amusement park. Her mother always told her it was a waste of money and that when she grew up and got a job, she could go on her own.

”Where do you want to go first?” Ha Eun asked the little girl.

”I can pick where we go?” Eun Ha asked. Chang Wook and Ha Eun nodded.

Eun Ha started to run forward. Ha Eun and Chang Wook worriedly stopped her, and the two grabbed one of her hands. Eun Ha was surprised by this, if anything, they looked worried.

”Are you worried that I'll run off?” Eun Ha asked them.

”We're just worried that you'll get lost,” Chang Wook told her.

”And also, someone might kidnap you,” Ha Eun said, ”No matter how nice the person looks if they offer to show you their puppies or take you to their truck full of candy, you hit them in the balls and run away!” Ha Eun said.

Chang Wook looked at Ha Eun speechless. She is talking to a child, not an adult!
