- night ; hera palace -

"what are you doing? why are all the lights off? is teacher jin not here?" seokhoon leans towards the light switch, but eunbyeol is quick to tell him not too.

eunbyeol stands up quickly, her slippers shuffling on the floor as she throws herself onto seokhoon. "i can't wait anymore. confirm your feelings with me today, please."

seokhoon glares at the girl, pushing her off of him. "what are you doing?" the room goes silent, and seokhoon walks out of eunbyeols bedroom.

"Joo Seokhoon! You can't just leave like this!" The two stand in the hallway, seokhoon's back facing eunbyeol.

"Seriously," seokhoon turns around, making direct eye contact with the psychotic girl, "what on earth are you doing?"

"the conditions of our agreement are that we study and share a tutor together that's it.

if you're gonna keep acting like this, i'm going to quit the tutoring and everything else... don't call me again." seokhoon turns on his heels, making his way to the front door.

"Just promise me one thing." Seokhoon stops, the air in the room thickening, becoming quiet.

"Promise me you'll never fall for Bae Rona." Seokhoon scoffs, turning back towards Eunbyeol.

"That's never going to happen. me and rona are over." he turns around, but the next thing that comes out of eunbyeol's mouth stuns him.

"or seo jaewha." he gulps, not denying or agreeing to anything. seokhoon walks straight to the door, leaving eunbyeol hanging.

as the door shuts, eunbyeol screams, wanting to grab the nearest thing to throw.

instead, she pulls at her hair, wanting nothing but seokhoon to finally acknowledge her and how great she is.

- morning ; seo family home-

"jaehwa. wake up. you have school." jaewha squints here eyes, the sun coming in from the window basically blinding her.

"why do i have to go?" she whined, throwing the thick blanket right on her head.

she hears her grandpa sigh, heavily, and his feet thumping towards her bed. the covers are pulled down, and the sun is in her face again. "ahhh harabeojii!"

"you don't know what i had to go through for you to get to that school, get up and change." her grandpa neatly folds the blanket at the edge of her bed, waiting for jaehwa to get up.

"i didn't even want to go there."she grumbled. her grandpa was able to hear her and scoffed.

"get up, now." the sound in his voice scared jaehwa a bit, forcing her to sit up in bed.

"okay, okay. i'll change now..." her grandpa smiles, and walks out of her room.

"i don't understand how that man is 78. he moves and acts like he's 27..." the phone resting on the bedside table pings, jaehwa's head turning out of habit.
