Come Back To Me

²

The night felt like it had passed on faster then usual. Rona's mom came into her room to wake her up a few minutes early, as it always took time for her to get out of bed. She managed to get up on time and have a filling breakfast. Soon after that Yunhee drove her to school in her new car, saying she was needed to fill out extra paperwork for Rona's presence at the school.

Finally arriving, Yunhee and Rona both headed in together; separating from eachother at the entrance. Yunhee saw Rona off and headed straight to the directors office, where a surprise awaited her. Entering in, her eyes met a portrait of the late chairman, whom she was not completely fond of as he was Seojins father. "You came sooner then I expected" a familiar voice called out to her. Yunhee, from a corner of her sight noticed Seojin elegantly sitting down on a big round chair with her hands on her lap. "What are... you doing here?" Yunhee genuinely asked, confused. Seojin lifted up a gold sign in her hand with her name printed on it. "I knew you were smart back in school, yet you can't make a few inferences here and there?" Seojin proudly stated, thinking she ate. "This isn't funny" Yunhee argued, pointlessly. "Calm down, I only called you here to fill out paperwork, not to embarass yourself in front of me... again" Seojin recalled. Yunhee, restraining her anger for Rona's sake, quietly did what she needed to do and left.

Meanwhile in class, Rona's pencil rolled off her desk while she was organizing her notebooks. Walking by, Seokhoon briefly stopped and picked it up for her. "Oh, Thank you" Rona softly spoke as Seokhoon glared at her, slowly smirking. Eunbyeol, Seojins daughter, felt uncomfortable watching the scene, as she had a crush on Seokhoon and hated the idea of him even being near another girl. After the lesson was over, Rona noticed Seokhoon heading to go get lunch. "Seokhoon, wait up", she quickly stopped him. Seokhoon looked at her with an unfathomable look on his face. "Would you like to have lunch with me?" Rona nervously asked. Seokhoon nodded. Eunbyeol gave a jealous stare, but preformed no actions. Lunch bad passed pretty quickly and both Seokkyung and Eunbyeol passed Seokhoon and Rona in the hall, eyeing the new girl down. After a few steps Seokhoon noticed they went off to mind their own business. He grabbed Rona by the wrist and they hurried to class after hearing the tardy bell ring. Efficiently, Seokhoon had his own secret way of getting to class late without the staff seeing him.

After being done with organizing her papers, Suryeon decided to make rice cakes and visit Yunhee to see how she's settled in. Suryeon headed down the elevator to one of the lower floors of the Hera Palace. She elegantly made her way down the hall stopping at Yunhee's place. She quietly knocked on the door, waiting for an answer. "Who is it?", the woman on the other side asked. "It's me, Suryeon" the older one exclaimed. Yunhee opened the door and welcomed her in. "What brings you here?" She asked. "I just wanted to see how you were doing, I also brought a few treats" Suryeon told her, offering her the rice cakes. "You truly didn't have too, but I appreciate it" Yunhee replied. "Would you like some coffee?" She added. Suryeon smiled, "I would love that". They both sat down at the small dining table and told themselves more about eachother, giggling.

After more time had passed, Yunhee remembered she had to go pick up Rona from school. "I'm going to go pick Rona up, would you like me to pick up the twins to save you time?" Yunhee offered, knowing she's also a busy woman. "That would be lovely" Suryeon said, thanking her dearly.

Yunhee set off to pick up the kids after finishing up with Suryeon. Backing into a parking space, she suddenly brakes, as she sees a man crossing through. Confused, she decided to wait to let him safely get to the other side before stepping on the pedals. She quickly then manages to see his face, one she recognized without a doubt. The man, Ha Yoonchul, turned looking behind him, noticing Yunhee. Getting out of the car, still having no sight of Yoonchul, Yunhee proceeded closing her car door and locking it. "Yunhee?", Yoonchul asked getting her attention. Yunhee turned around confused, "What are you doing here?". "My daughter goes to this school." He answered. That's when he realizes, the more he looks at her, the more he misses their old bond. "Hey um.." He momentarily paused. "Hm?" Yunhee looked at him, puzzled. "Do you have time tomorrow?" Yoonchul shyly asked.
