Chapter 40 - This is perfect

As da-hee left sang-hoon's home that day, she couldn't shake the feeling that she might have done something completely wrong; (I feel so unsure, completely different from how confident I felt walking into his home earlier today). She looked up at the night's sky and chuckled a bit; at the ridiculousness of how pathetic she felt. She always knew what Mr cha's weakness was, but the only thing that stopped her from acting in that way was that she knew that it would somehow hurt Tats. When she finally came to that realization, she squatted down to the floor and held her head in her hand's as she said to herself. "I am losing control, I thought I threw away all these ridiculous emotions that night. What is wrong with me?" As she continued to lament, she felt a presence next to her; it was just a cat, and that brought her back to her senses; she picked herself off the floor and went home.

Meanwhile as hwan was in his home, resting, he suddenly heard a noise. (It seems like dad is having a business meeting at home again, unless, they would have called me down to join them.... I better find somewhere else to be; before they decide that they do want me to join them; I really could not be bothered.) As he was about to head out of the house, he looked to the side and saw his parents in the garden (and with Mr cha?) Hwan has a very good memory and besides, there's no way he could forget someone that da-hee talked about with such hatred and fear. As he continued to stare, suddenly he caught his parents' attention.

"Hwan! Come over, let me introduce you to my son." His father says with such excitement, as he loves to introduce his son to whoever it might be.

As he walked toward them, he was unwilling to have any conversation with that man as he couldn't shake the words that da-hee previously said. 'Everyone is his prey.'

"Hwan?"

As he heard his father call his name again, he suddenly came back to his senses. He bowed his head and wore a fake smile, and carried on a light and meaningless conversation as if nothing was wrong.

The next day before classes even began, hwan rushed to find da-hee to tell her everything.

"I need to speak to you."

"What's the rush? I just took one foot out of the car."

Before da-hee could say another word, he dragged her to a secluded area and told her about his meeting with Mr cha. When he was done speaking, he was expecting her to be showing some sort of shocked or emotional response, but all she showed, was a pondering look on her face.

Being Irritated he then yelled. "Well say something!"

And she responded. "This is perfect."
