Ji Hu was working on her computer as Gu Won held her wrist. A paper airplane was flying around them as Gu Won played around with his powers. So far, nothing like being unable to teleport from that photobooth hadn't happened since they got home. Ji Hu decided to get some work done while Gu Won tested his powers. So far, the paper airplane continued to circle them, the dishes were washed, dried and put away, and the laundry that Ji Hu had been neglecting had been folded and put away in her drawers or hanging back up into her walk-in closet.

Gu Won was muttering to himself, trying to figure out what exactly went wrong. "Okay, I need my right hand now." Ji Hu said, pulling her wrist free. The paper plane landed and slid across the floor. Ji Hu typed out a response to an email before hitting send and closing the laptop.

"That's right."

"What's right?"

"The same thing happened that day too. The day I lost my powers. I almost got hit by a car because my powers were acting up." Gu Won said.

"We almost got hit." She corrected but Gu Won ignored her.

"And that's how my tattoo transferred to you." Ji Hu looked at the cross tattoo on her wrist. "You're clearly the problem here."

Ji Hu placed her head into her hands, groaning loudly. "I should have put a clause into that agreement that stopped you from blaming everything on me. It a you problem, not a me problem." Ji Hu complained.

"I'm not blaming you."

"It sounds like you are."

"It's just that my powers never flickered until I met you. Nor did my tattoo ever transfer to anyone." Gu Won said.

Ji Hu crossed her arms, eyes narrowing at Gu Won. "Listen to the words coming out of your mouth and tell me how that's not blaming me." Gu Won just stared, confused by what she meant. "You're blaming me for almost getting hit by a car and for your tattoo transferring to me. Now, you're blaming me for your powers to flicker." Ji Hu explained.

"What I mean is it'll be a nuisance if they act up again at a crucial moment. Like earlier." Gu Won said.

"A nuisance?" Ji Hu scoffed. "I told you to do something, I didn't ask you to kiss me. So, why'd you do it?" Ji Hu asked, resting her arm against the back of her chair. "You think I enjoyed it?"

"So you didn't enjoy it?"

"Did you?"

Ji Hu pressed her lips together when she realized how harsh she sounded. Yet, Gu Won didn't answer her question. Gu Won turned his head to the door. "Why isn't Mr. Park here yet?" Ji Hu gave Gu Won a look. "I can't even have my coffee comfortably, for crying out loud." Ji Hu kept her smile to herself as Gu Won got up from the table.

Ji Hu placed her fingers to her lips, thinking about that kiss. Maybe Seong Min was correct – but Ji Hu knew it was a bad idea.

Seong Min pulled into the parking garage, seeing Ms. Shin and Mr. Park standing in front of each other. Seong Min rested his arms on the steering wheel, looking at the pair, shaking his head. They barely knew each other, yet they were at it like cats and dogs. All they had done together so far was put together a wedding for Ji Hu and Gu Won and they were acting like an old married couple than Gu Won and Ji Hu were. Seong Min wasn't sure what Ms. Shin or Mr. Park did in the past to make them hate each other now, but it was humorous for all of ten seconds.
