Chapter 3 - Ch.3 Chae Who?

"Hey haven't I told you not to call for me during office hours. And no I'm not coming home for dinner today, make sure to tell my mom that." Yoona said to the guard that her mother had sent.

The guard responded," Well it's your father...umm your mother asked me to take you home to check up on him. Your mother has been crying a lot lately. She sent me to bring you home to see your father."

Yoona became worried instantly and ran out the door of her office with her mask still stuck onto her face and notified her assistant to get the horses ready. Assistant Lee hurried outside and clear the road for Yoona since there was still crowds outside protesting. Yoona hurried onto the horse and rode off thinking about nothing but her father.

Dad was so healthy, how could this be happening? Was it because of me? Did I cause him too much worried? I should have listened to him and visited him more. This can't be happening. Dad please be alright.

With so many things going through her mind, she didn't realize her eyes tearing up. Yoona quickly arrived home and she jumped off the horse running into the house, looking for her father. Running around the yard like a lost child, she came to see a strange yet familiar man sitting on the porch. The man has a very masculine figure and sat comfortably in the seat cushion waiting for someone. Confused, but still worried Kimberly approach the man.

"Excuse me, who are you??"

"Oh, well hello I am Kim Chae Won. Nice to meet you. May I ask...", Chae Won said in a very deep, masculine voice.

"Umm…*awkward laugh** May I ask? Who are you?!" Yoona said interrupting Chae Won.

A maid walked by and Yoona yelled for her, "Hey, where is my father?!" But the maid seems to be very excited and walked off with some plates into the hanok(a traditional korean house)

"Oh so you must be the younger sister..I see. And our parents are having dinner out in the room together. I came to wait for your sister here. Your mother told me, she was coming home today" Chae Won explained, but Yoona quickly scrambled away without listening to the rest.

Younger sister?Do I know that guy..Oh still got my mask on..phew that's good. What? My sister? Eun Ji?? Is he trying to court her??Wasn't she married already? Ahh Whatever. My brain is about to explode right now.

"Hey! When's your sister coming!!" Chae won said as he project his voice, running after Yoona.

"I don't know probably never!!" Yoona yelled back as she ran towards the dining room.

"Father!!" called Yoona as she ran towards the dinner table with Chae Won catching up to her.

"Welcome home honey, How'd you like him?" her mother asked with a huge smile.

"Father! Are you okay?!" Yoona asked her father, ignoring her mother's question. And not knowing what's going on at the dinner table.

"Oh, I'm totally fine. What's going on Yoona? Why are you in such a rush?" her father responded, very confused.

"Mother." Yoona turned to her mother in disbelief as her mother slowly turn away in guilt.

Yoona's dad realizing what's going on said, "Yoona, your mother and I just miss you, that's all. You haven't come home in a while, how about some of your favorite dishes. Sit down. Sit down" gesturing for Yoona and Chae Won to sit down at the table on the other side of the room.

Not knowing what's going on at the other side of the room, Yoona gestured for the maids to bring in more dishes as she settles down. Waiting for her parents who is having a private conversation with Chae Won's father.
