"I think daddy is back," Selena whispered to Min-Jung as she stood watch at the door.
Min-Jung hurried out of her room, dressed in a skimpy red gown and gold high-heeled sandals. Her face was covered in make-up.
"How do I look?" She asked Selena, who was looking at her with mischief dancing in her eyes.
"I think he's going to buy it," Selena said with a nod. Her grandmother and aunty had let her in on the plan, claiming if she really wanted to have a little brother or sister, then it was in her place to play along and help Min-Jung do it.
"Okay, now go to your room and focus on your assignment. I will see you when I get back," Min-Jung told her with a wink and sank into the sofa, dropping her purse on the ground.
Selena ran over to her room the moment Alex turned the doorknob.
He paused by the door when he saw Min-jung's outfit. He checked his wristwatch. The time was just past Seven. "You're going somewhere?" He asked, looking her over.
