Through Amy. | SEULRENE

CHAPTER XV

Irene's POV

Mom went home after we assure her that Seulgi and I are fine. She said she just want to check up on me, that's why she visited. I'm still curious though, how did she met Seulgi? They even seemed close, also Dad. Dad is a very busy person, he seldom make time for us. How come with just a mention of Seulgi's name, he arranged a family dinner?

I look at the girl preparing our lunch. I just realized, I don't know much about her. All I know is that she's Kang Seulgi, she lives on that artistic house, she have galleries for her paintings, she's friends with Joy's girlfriend, she likes me, and she loves my daughter.

"Seulgi." I called her. She turn to me, smiling from ear to ear. I just stare at her She seems happy.

"I am happy, Hyun." she said as she giggled. Did I said it out loud? My! "Come here, taste this." I got off the stool and went up to her. She gave me a spoonful.

"Yah! that's too much!" I said to her. She laugh and ate it instead. "Yaaah!"

"Patience, Hyun. Here." She got a small amount and fed it to me.

"It's good." I said. Actually, it's really good. She's a great cook. No wonder, Amy had that standard with flavors now. She always compare what she eats with Seulgi's cooking. Well, I can't blame her.

"Okay then, let's eat." She said and shoo me away from my kitchen.

"Yah! Did you forget? This is my house." I said. I walk to the dinning table and took a sit. Seulgi soon followed with a plate on her hand.

"I remember." She said to me before sitting down. She look at me from across the table and smiled. "Let's eat?" She said. I nodded at her.

I steal glances from her while she eats. We just ate in silence, none one of us talked, not before she decided to speak.

"Hyun, do you have something to tell me?" She asked. I shook my head telling her no. "Doesn't seem like it." She then continued eating.

"To be honest Seulgi, I do have questions. A lot actually." I looked down at my food. "It's just that, you know this much about me already. I want to get to know you more, Seulgi. I-If you'll let me..." I look up to her and meet her eyes, that's already staring at me. She smiled at me, it looks forced.

"You're cute." That's the only thing she said. That's it? "Stop playing with your food and eat it already." she said and continued eating. Why is she avoiding it?

"Seulgi." I called her.

"Hyun." she begs. Is she scared of something?

At that moment I just let her. I can't force her to open up to me. After lunch she decided to go home. As for me, I went to the company to at least make some work done. I can't just stay at home doing nothing. All I could do now, is distract my mind from thinking about Seulgi.

I was busy with work when someone just burst into my office.

"Mooom!" she shouted running up to me. I saw Suho walking behind her.

"You're early. How's school love?" I asked her.

"Oh, you should tell her what you did." Suho speak up. I look at my daughter curiously. She glared at her father before facing me again.

"Mom..." she started nervously.

"She got into a fight." Suho finished. She what?!

"Dad!" She shouted.

"What? I'm not hiding it from your mother. She's scarier than you are." Suho told her daughter. I face Suho.

"What happened?" I asked him directly this time.
