"Not sure. It looks like they made up." The man said, looking through the binocular.
"Thanks." Eunji said, then hung up the phone.
"I guess. You're testing me, ------."
Eunji dialed a phone number and that was when she started her plan to get Woohyun back.


You pulled away from the hug and looked at Woohyun.
"I missed you. Like a lot." You told him. Woohyun smiled.
"I missed you more than you know it. You were so mean to me."
"I'm sorry." That was all you could say to him.
"Stop apologizing. You could even rip my heart out and I wouldn't be mad."
"Stop it, Woohyun-ah. I'm serious. None of this should have happened." You felt guilty. Woohyun hugged you a little tighter.
"Jagiya, you're my wife until the end." Woohyun winked, and quickly stole kiss on your cheeks, before running into the house.
You stood outside, placing your hand on the area his kissed, and smiled.

Life was perfect again. Oddly, Eunji stopped bothering you guys as well, which made you feel a little uneasy. Since you had the day off, you decided to go out and visit the orphanage near your parents' home. You entered the building to be greeted by an old friend.
"------! How are you, my sweetheart?" The ahjumma hugged you. You smiled and hugged her back.
"I'm sorry ahjumma. I've been very busy, so I have not got the chance to stop by. How are the kids? I've missed them very much." You told her, pulling away from the hug. She smiled at you.
"They're doing great! Jihyun and Jinwoo got adopted just a few days ago. Last week, we got three more children." She told you.
"Ahh, really? I know you love these children very much, so I'm not even worried." You replied.
You and the ahjumma took a stroll down the hallways to get into the playground area.
"------ah, I heard that you got married, is that true?"
"Ah, yes. I did. Everything happened so quick, I didn't even get to invite you."
"No, don't worry. The few months ago, I heard it when I was shopping, so I wanted to know if it was you." She explained.
"Yea, it's me, haha." You chuckled.
"When will I get to meet him? I want to make sure he understands his job." The ahjumma joked. You laughed.
"Soon, hopefully. I was going to ask him to come with me today, but I remembered he has an important meeting today." You explained to her.
"Don't hide him from me. Make sure I get a chance to greet him." She smiled at you. You nodded to her.

You guys finally arrived to the playground area, where all the children saw you.
"Noona!!!"
"------ noona!!"
"Unnie!!"
All the children screamed out, running towards you. They all gave you a huge bear hug, making you drop to the ground.
"Noona, why haven't you come visit us?"
"Do you not like us, Unnie?"
"Unnie, we heard that you got married."
"Noona, I thought you were going to marry me?"
"You promised you were going to marry me, Noona."
"Unnie, is he handsome?"
"Is he nice to you?"
"Why weren't we invited?"
"Do you hate us?"
You were bombarded with questioned. You laughed.
"I'm sorry! I'm such a bad person. I came, but you guys were still sleeping, so I didn't want to wake you guys up." You lied to them, hoping it would make them feel better.
"And no, I don't hate you guys or dislike you guys at all. You guys are my little friends forever. I have been very busy at work, so that's why I haven't visit you guys." You explained to them.
"No, you got married. So you only have time for your oppa." One of the little boys said, crossing his arms with his sad face on. You pulled him to you.
"Joon-ah, I will always love you more than him, and you know that too." You told him and smiled. His face brightened.
"But you have to promise." He held out his pinky. You took it and crossed it with yours.
"I promise."
"Unnie, when will we get to see your oppa?"
"Noona, when will we get to see hyung?"
"Is he nice to you?"
"We need to make sure he loves you very much."
"If he doesn't, we cannot allow you guys to get married anymore."
You laughed. You never knew children could say those words.
"Don't worry. He will come soon. I came here because I wanted to tell you guys about him. I need to make sure he's right for me and you guys are the right people to come to." You told them. They all cheered. One of the little girls quickly ran to your side and hugged you, while you were still sitting on the floor.
"Unnie, is he tall and handsome?" She asked you.
"Um, I don't know. That's why I want you to tell me." You told her.
"But what if I like him? Will you get mad at me?" She asked, with her cute puppy eyes.
"No, I won't. Why would I get mad?"
"Isn't he your oppa thought? You're not even going to be mad a little?"
"No, he can be your oppa. I don't need an oppa like him. I got so many dongsaeng right here." You told her. She smiled at you and hugged your real tight.
"Okay, you guys go play, okay? Let ---- rest." The ahjumma told them. They all waved at you and continued to play at the playground.
You got up from the ground and wiped away the dirt from your pants.
"Sorry -----. These kids don't get regular visits, so when they see you, they get super excited." The ahjumma apologized.
"Ahjumma, don't worry. It's nothing." You smiled at her to reassure her everything was okay. After a few hours playing with the kids, you didn't realize how late it was getting.
"Oh, ahjumma, I should be heading back. It's getting late." You told her.
"Yes, please go home! Don't forget to come back and visit us." She told you.
"I will." You told her and gave her a hug before heading out.
