I feel powerless when I'm with him. I feel weak and easily swayed and it scares me. We kissed again and it has become a choice rather than a mistake.

I avoided him since yesterday night because of what happened in the lake. I just stayed inside my room the whole night 'till mid afternoon to avoid him while people are busy preparing for the party.

Tonight is finally my mom and Mr. Jeon's engagement party. There are delicious foods, and expensive wines. Few people, mostly married couples are dancing to the pleasing classical music filling the entire flat. Mr. Jeon even asked me to dance with him earlier.

The penthouse is crowded with people I don't even recognize, including Mr. Jeon's business partners, Mom's investors I met few times before, few businessmen whose business I haven't heard of, Mom's and Mr. Jeon's close friends and then few relatives. It was a formal and boring party. I've already endured an hour talking to these people before heading back to my room.

My brother Hoon should be the one being introduced to these business tycoons since he needs a wide range of social connections once he took over the foundation.

I sighed heavily as I went back to the party.

"Yoongi!" I gladly said when I saw him at the foot of the staircase. He has a huge smile on his face when he saw me coming down from the stairs.

He handed me flowers.

"You should've brought mint choco chip ice cream instead of flowers." I complained as I hugged him tightly. I miss him.

"At least flowers don't melt." He whispered which made me laugh.

"Ji Eun unnie." Yoongi's little sister emerges from behind him and also hugged me.

"Daen, I miss you." I said as I leaned down to kiss her cheek.

"You look stunning by the way." Yoongi commented.

"I know." I smiled proudly.

"When did you arrive here?" I asked.

"We were here since yesterday night. Your mom gave us a room just below the penthouse. Sorry I didn't go see you as soon as we got here. Drive here was awfully long." He explained.

"It's okay. I didn't get out of my room since yesterday night 'til mid afternoon anyway."

"Where's your mom?" I asked Daen as I pinch her chubby cheek.

"She's with your mommy unnie."

"And your dad?"

"Business trip."

"I see."

"I'm so glad you're both here. This party is killing me."

"How about Hoon? Is he here?" Yoongi asked as we move away from the staircase.

"He's still in the US. His flight will be the day after tomorrow." I said as I unconsciously glanced at the people chattering at the living room.

"I see." Yoongi answered. He bend down on his one knee to her sister's level and took both her hands on his. "Princess, go find mom and tell her you're hungry. Ji Eun unnie and I need to talk about something okay? Go go." He said gently. Yoongi's 5-year old little sister just nodded her head and go.

"Jing?" Yoongi suddenly asked as he stand back up. "Are you looking for someone?"

"Eh?"

"You kept scanning the crowd with your eyes. Are you expecting to see someone?" He asked. Am I that obvious?
