Ri In had an amused look on her face whilst Junsu turned to Yoochun, looking confused. “I’m just back and you’re making use of me, eh?” Junsu punched Yoochun lightly on the shoulder. “You know I can’t possibly-”
“You’re the only one whom I trust will not make a blunder with Ri In’s schedule. So until I get someone, you’ll have to be her assistant and take note of her schedules.” Yoochun slung an arm around Junsu. “I just know I can count on you, right? My best buddy!” Junsu sighed. There isn’t much change between the two of them, seven months before and seven months after. In fact, ever since they knew each other.

‘Apparently, he had forgotten what trouble he gotten into the last time he agreed to help Yoochun…’ Ri In smirked as she sat at the back of the car Junsu is driving. Looking out of the window, Ri In laughed at herself. Through these seven months, she has been imagining the various ways in which they might meet again. She’d even considered flying over to U.S to demand an explanation from Junsu. All these thoughts however, remained only as thoughts which she did not execute. “Ri In?” Junsu’s voice pulled her back to reality. That husky voice which turned her into a clown. “Where are we going? Aren’t you free of schedules until tomorrow morning? Plus, it’s getting really late. I have to rush home.”
“Just drive. We’re visiting someone very important.”

“Is that kid sane?! What on earth is he thinking?! I sent him overseas to study, not to hook up with blonde dolls!” Mr Kim shouted agitatedly as he pointed to Chloe who seemed lost at the Korean language which was hurled at her. Her head slightly cocked, her blue eyes were opened to their limits as she stared at Junsu’s parents intently. “She indeed looks like a doll…” Mrs Kim shuddered from the attention Chloe is giving them. “Don’t you know it’s rude to stare?” she snapped at Chloe. Chloe blinked a few times before pointing to herself. Sighing, Mrs Kim turned back to her husband. “It’s no use, she doesn’t understand a single word we are saying.”

Junsu glanced and fidgeted nervously as he followed Ri In. The address she given him had driven the both of them to the graveyard. On their way here, Ri In has requested to stop by a toy shop to get a train set which she is carrying in her arms right now. “Ri In, where are we going exactly? I’m going home if there’s nothing else.”
“Just follow me, and keep your mouth shut.” Ri In frowned at the impact of Junsu’s voice. Every word he utter seem to be melting away a bit of her defence force towards Junsu. Every word he utter seem to be making her fall in love with him again. Picking up speed, Ri In climbed up the stairs and finally stopped in front of a tombstone.
“I believe it is not within my job scoop to visit your friends and family with you.” Junsu appeared to be fuming.
“I remember I told you to shut up. Bend down and pay your respects!” Ri In swirled around and snapped at Junsu suddenly. Looking at how furious she is, Junsu did as he was told no matter how unwilling.

“This boy, he is really getting out of hand!” Mr Kim slammed the phone receiver onto the coffee table before him. “He isn’t picking up any of his calls!”
“Old Master, be wary of your high blood pressure…” Mr Kang bowed and offered a cup of tea which Mr Kim accepted gratefully.
“Dear, looks like it’s time. If we don’t do it now, it’ll be too late when he further develops feelings for that girl.” Mrs Kim rubbed her chin thoughtfully. “Thankfully, we have made plans beforehand…”

“Seul, I’m home!” Yoochun shouted cheerily as he made his way into the Han mansion.
“What are you calling your ‘home’?” Ye Seul sashayed out of one of the many rooms. The maids which were walking pass her bowed before scurrying away.
“Wife-y, when are you going to get married to me so we can own our home together?” Yoochun leaned close to her and attempted to kiss her when someone cleared her throat loudly. “Oh. Hi, Miss Chu!” Yoochun smiled and waved at Soo Young.
“Don’t flirt with my attendant!”

“How are you doing? Your birthday is coming in another few days. I can’t visit you on the actual day, so I brought you a train set today.” Ri In touched the tombstone tenderly as she placed the nicely wrapped toy on the ground. “Mummy misses you a lot…” The originally calm Junsu jerked his head up at the mention of ‘mummy’. Eyeing Ri In, his negative view towards her grew. ‘She appeared to be so young, and yet she is already a mother of a child. I wonder who the father is… must’ve been an secret affair.’ Junsu stood up from his spot and dusted the dirt from his pants. Ri In stood up beside him and gave him a warning glare. “Breathe a word about this child to another, and you’ll never see tomorrow’s daylight.” having said that, she strutted off before Junsu.

----------
Are you intending to let Junsu know of the dead child? Are you going to tell him that he is a father? Are you intending on a revenge? Jang Ri In, you’re really unfathomable.

“Ye Seul, Junsu…” Yoochun stammered. “I know you don’t like him, but I still want to tell you that he has returned to Seoul.” Ye Seul jumped up from her seat immediately and looked at Yoochun for confirmation. Seeing Yoochun nod his head, Ye Seul felt her temper rising up. “Why has he returned? Hasn’t he abandoned Li Yin to study overseas? Why did he return then?!”
“Seul, calm down. He’s just back for the holidays. He’ll be going off before you know it…” Yoochun placed a comforting hand on Ye Seul’s shoulder. “I know you’re still hurt over Li Yin’s death, but it’s time to let go.”
“Let go, let go! Quit asking me to let go! You’re the same as my mother, forcing me to do things your way!”
“Han Ye Seul!”
