Chapter 37 - Running out of time

Leah stared at uju for a long while almost as if she didn't understand the words that she had just said, then suddenly her faced turned from that of absolute confusion, to that with a big grin, she burst into laughter; she couldn't control herself, so much that she fell to the floor behind the bar. Uju at the other end was not amused; she believed completely in her idea and was serious.

"I'm serious leah, there is no explanation for it; She caught feelings."

Leah picks herself off the floor, tries to catch her breath and then responds. "Let's say that da-hee is attracted to this man, because from her description of him, he must be very handsome; but being inlove is still too far fetched when discussing matters of da-hee."

Uju looked displeased and was a bit offended from Leah laughing in her face, and Leah notices this, so she tries to explain herself further. "Look, I'm sorry for laughing at you, even though I have told you a lot of things about da-hee, you still don't know her like I do, she is not capable of falling inlove, that ship broke and sank a long time ago."

Suddenly da-hee returns and asks. " What ship?"

"Oh just idle chatter." " Nothing important." Leah and uju respond. Da-hee knew they were talking about her, but she honestly couldn't care less.

Several days past as things went on as normal. Da-hee arrived home from school, to find her sister sitting in the living room, with mister cha sitting next to her.

"What is going on, why are you here?"

"Is that anyway to speak to your provider?" Da-hee became immediately angry when he said those words, she clenched her fist almost as if she was about to punch him, then and there. "Is there anything wrong with me wanting to visit my girls?" He asks further.

"There is nothing wrong with that, da-hee greet mister cha properly, don't be rude." Her sister asks her.

Da-hee bowed her head reluctantly and then she asks. "Why are you here, mister Cha?" in the most respectful tone she could muster.

"I do not have time to repeat myself, I just want to remind you, that you are nothing more than a child, I don't know what game you're trying to play, but leave the big games to the adults."

Da-hee was visibly confused, but she could see that he was in a hurry so there was no point in asking further. After da-min had seen him off; Da-hee could finally ask her. " What the hell did he want?"

"He wants to transfer you to a new school."

"What! Its the middle of the semester."

"You know he doesn't care. It seems Lee sara paid him a visit. It's a good thing I became your legal guardian as soon as I could, but I can only hold out for so long; we still work for him. So whatever plan you have, you need to hurry it along, we are running out of time.
