The wind whispers on her ears, playfully twirling her hair along its gentleness. 'Someone is looking' It seems to say but she dismisses it as her own anxiety. She had always been trying to do so since Germany. She is afraid that Namjoon might search after her. Perhaps Jin is still looking after her. Good thing she was quick to cover the irreparable damage that meeting Jin could cause. She never even met Namjoon again. Yet here she is, even the rustling leaves is fueling her paranoia.
"Dal-rae-ssi."
Automatically, her body turns towards the two lovely couple, her heart jolts at first then she mirrors their welcoming morning smile.
"How are you Mr. And Mrs. Pak." She bows.

'Someone is looking.' A whisper tingles at her nape, making her look around to make sure she's not going crazy. She only stops as she remembers that she already have a neighbor. There her gaze lands to the reflection of tall trees against her neighbor's balcony. Her gaze stays long and only retracts with the honk of a car.

Her steps are hurried as her heels clicks crisply along the entrance of their company building. Rather than advancing inside and to the elevators, she is walking away with her bag in tow. Poor Ms. Seo is trying hard to walk after her, pleading.
