"Sajang nim,"she said stupefied.

"Did you stay here last night Hae Kyung ah?,"

She was torn between telling the truth or lying. Not wanting it destroy their good relationship, she choose to say the truth.

"Ne sajangnim. Mianhe. Please don't fire me or cast me out. I really don't have any other place to go," Hae Kyung said clasping both of her hand begging to her boss.

"Hae kyung ah, I know that you won't do the bad things and really need place to stay but spend the night at cafe is not appropriate and bad for your health too. This cafe is not designed for sleeping purpose,"

Hae Kyung bowed her head and kept silent. She could feel that her boss was do care for her. She was not angry because she stayed at the cafe. She was worried of her. Hae Kyung's tears started to pool at her eyes.

"Ne sajangnim. Mianhe," she said.

Park Han Na hold both Hae Kyung upper arms. Hae Kyung lifted her head.

"Tonight you can stay here. Tomorrow  you have to come with me. I will prepare my rooftop room for you. Stay there until you can find another place to stay,"

"Sajang nim?" Hae Kyung said blinking her eyes, still not believing her ears.

"Hae Kyung ah, I have consider you as my family. I don't know why I feel so close to you since the first time I saw you. It is like I have known you for years not just from a few meeting we had at the ikebana class. So, I hope you can take my offer. Arraseo?", said Park Han Na smiling.

"Ne sajangnim, gamsa habnida," hae Kyung said bowing down to her. The tears ran down her eyes. She couldn't be thankful enough.

"HAH!"

"Kamchagiya. NEO!" shouted Hae Kyung hitting Yong Ha arms. She cleaned the window glass from outside when Yong Ha came and surprised her from behind.

"Ah ah ah, It's hurt Hae Kyung ah,"

"Who told you to surprise me, hah?! How if I have heart attack," she said holding her heart.

"You wont. I never see people with heart disease can have much power like you did," Yong Ha said grinning.

"Ya! Juggo ssipeo?" Hae kyung said preparing to hit him again.

"Ooooo... mianhe hae kyung ah,"he said laughing and holding Hae Kyung arms.

Then he suddenly pulled her in his embrace. He put her left hand at his shoulder and her right hand at his palm.

"Can I have this dance?,"he asked winking his eyes.

For a moment, their eyes met. Hae Kyung could see spark in his eyes that somehow reach her heart. And it beat faster.

"Ehem... Yong Ha ya... people are looking..." she said.

"Ah mian. Kajja... Lets practice at my hidden place," Yong Ha said releasing his hug.

And she nodded. Hae Kyung put the rug inside and took her coat. she went out and locked the door. Yong Ha lead the way to the place he mentioned. The place was not too far from her cafe but it was quite hidden. After the third turn they arrived in front of the garden's gate. Yong Ha open the padlock and they walked through it. Then Hae Kyung saw a small beautiful gazebo surrounding by lamp. She gasped and closed her mouth with her hand. Yong Ha smiled to her and held her other hand.
