Young-Mi's POV: (continuation of chapter 3)

As I was moving towards the door I felt an awkward silence in my room.

I could feel the ticking of the wall clock, the water dropped off the kitchen basin I left untightened, mild blew of my rings of curtains hitting the window glass with ting ting sound and dripping water from my wet hair on the floor.

As I held the handle to open the door, I thought to peep out once to confirm if there was a male outside in case I could handle it that way.

As I took my eyelids near the peephole, my wet hair gently hit the door with a swing and made the door wet with its scratches.

As I rolled my eyes from all sides, I saw no one outside. I took away my eyes from the peephole to think how is it possible?

"May be someone short is there, I can't see."

I opened the door and swiped my head from right to left and vice versa. I could find no one outside.

I bowed my head down and up too. Neither was there any note or any kind of stuff.

May be someone mistook my room number or someone was playing mischief.

"Ok. Anyone here?"

An awkward silence around. I wondered for a moment and stood still.

"Opps ! I am in a bathrobe." I realised.

I held the belt of bathrobe and tightened it and turned inside and locked the door.

"Why would anyone come and just ring the bell?"

"I feel so strange. This has never happened earlier."

"Well I should not think much. Lets play the music and complete my half chilled and soothing bath". I giggled.

I took my bath with "Life goes on" song on repeat.

I brushed my wet hair and blowed my hair with dryer. I was still singing songs.

I took out my beautiful night gown and dressed myself to sleep.

"After work getting a hot water bath and chilling what else does someone crave for."

What a fresh feeling with cool air gently moving towards your whole body making you feel fresh, light and lively. It just relieves all the fatigues away.

I was about to land my tiresome body on my cozy fluffy bed when I remembered that Jun-Su was going to come.

I thought of leaving a message for him that I was ok and there is no need of any worries.

I searched for my phone for a while near my drawers of my bed and side table when I remembered I had left it on the living room table while I was turning speakers on with my bluetooth.

I walked towards the living room with my woolen slip ons soothing my foot.

As I walked I saw that one of the window was slightly opened.

"But the window was closed when I saw it when I came to open the door when the bell rang. How can it be open?"

"The window can only be opened from inside."

The gap wasn't big. Not even a bird can slip in that small.

I wondered for a while and as it seemed of no danger I closed the window. Moved the curtains and went to the kitchen to have dinner.

"Opps. Amongst all this wiping and cleaning I totally forgot to make something for myself. I am in no energy nor mood to make something now."

I made a quirky smile to myself with sign of exhaustion lifting every vessel to ensure that each was empty.

"Ok. So, as usual my dear fridge, let's open and see what treasure you are hiding from me."

And I opened the fridge door.

Cooled chilling fresh air hit my face as I lean to see my food.

"Ahh. There you go my life saver."

I removed some pancakes and fruit salad from the fridge.

I was so lazy to garnish them in plate and hungry as hell that I directly ate the chilled pancake from its container.

After having the cold cake my throat and stomach felt satisfied.

I ate the fruit salad and felt even more satisfying.

"Wow. That satisfied my hunger."

"Ok. So, time to sleep babe. You gotta go for office tomorrow. Got important meetings waiting."

"But now I am going to have a power nap and beauty sleep to endorse beautiful tomorrow."

I smiled to myself and hits the lights off.

"Opps! yes my mobile."

I grabbed it and while strolling back to bedroom I texted Jun-Su to not worry about me.

I went back to bed and heard "Winter bear" and then kept my phone aside with usual alarms on and slipped into the blanket.
