Chapter 118 - Eun Ha, what are you doing next Friday? (2/2)
”Yes. I'm going as Joan of Arc,” she said proudly.
”And you took measurements for your teacher's fantasy, didn't you?” Ye Rim did not refrain from provoking, but Eun Ha pretended that she would hit her donsaeng. They were in the middle of this female joke of giggling and tickling when Eun Ha's phone called. Looking at the screen, she became concerned and stood up, walking away, after excusing herself.
”Bon soir, Monsieur Shin!”
When Eun Ha left, Dae Won commented, looking a little disappointed,
”Well, a French course partially destroyed my plans.”
”What did you have in mind, Oppa? I can ask her ...”
” Well, actually, she said I shouldn't do that. But I just couldn't help myself. It's about the Fashion Ball,” he seemed apologetic, which always made him very cute. But Ye Rim knew that Oppa wouldn't stand a chance with Eun Ha now.
”I don't believe it! Oppa wanted to take Eun Ha to the Fashion Ball?! Did she talk to you about the Fashion Ball?”
”Not exactly, I just thought you were going to like it. In fact, I had two invitations. I tried to get one more invitation, but it was impossible.”
”I imagine so, I heard that it is very exclusive. Only for VVIP!”
”Yes, I heard that her favorite stylist is one of the honored guests this year. But ... It wouldn't be wasted at all if you could make an appearance at this type of event, would you? I imagine your agent couldn't find it better! ” the musician proposed hopefully. ”Do you want to go to the Fashion Ball with me, Ye Rim?”

”Eun Ha went to the restaurant bathroom to answer Hunter Shin's call.
Her friend had reported the events at Noraebang, where she almost died of electrocution. However, Ye Rim had told in detail about the music playing backward, and the mysterious man who disappeared in the crowd.
'What if this man is the same one in the picture?' it was the first thing the young fairy had asked himself. Then, of course, she had reported it to Hunter Shin. It was one thing for the Devourer to want to take her. The other was to approach and harm Ye Rim.
That was exactly what the Hunter was investigating at the moment.
”As I said, Eun Ha, the cabin has a bad resonance. Maybe because of what happened, but I think something magical happened here,” told her tutor on the phone. ”I'll make sure it's no longer used. It's better not to risk exposing people to it ever again, just in case.”
”I'm glad. But is there no way to be sure if it was the Devourer, Professor?”
”I will investigate further. I can come back here on Friday night, and ...” The Hunter started, but Eun Ha interrupted him with a tasty taste of revenge for giving back exactly as he did last time.
”It just won't be possible. Professor Shin. On Friday we are going to the Fashion Ball, did you forget?”
”Jung ...” he seemed to be speechless, and the young fairy realized that Hunter Shin already had the answer but tried to buy time. But Eun Ha would pretend she didn't know.
”This is important too! That's how I'm going to pay my protégé's debt. Debts are serious things. The Hunter owes me, he knows that. And I am not a woman who forgives debts, of course,” she tried to sound like a mobster.
The Hunter sighed heavily on the phone.
”I even ignored a request for a date with a super nice guy because it's so important, Hunter Shin. I've already found a great excuse for Friday night. And it reminds me we should do a fitting test. I need to know what clothes you're going to wear. I want to impact and make people fall at first sight for my style!” she was excited.
”Listen, Jung. I won't do it. I cannot be the model. I can be the security guard, the hatter, the driver, but not the model. I'd just screw up your plan.”
”Haha, this is hilarious, but you owe me a favor.”
”Anything but that,” he insisted, and he meant it.
