Eva smiled as she walked inside her mom's house. She had been trying to avoid meeting her here but then she didn't want to keep rejecting her request to come and meet her.
"Eva, it's so nice to see you." Her mom smiled and hugged her.
"Exactly and you look nice too." Her stepfather smiled before he kissed her hand.
"Mom, I am hungry, shall we eat the dinner?" She asked moving away from him.
"Sure, you have grown so thin. Looks like you don't take care of yourself." She smiled as she took her to the dining hall.
"Hmm, it smells like hotpot." Eva complimented.
"I know you love it. Come sit, I have made kimchi for you, make sure you take it before you go." Her mom said.
"You are already talking about her departure? Atleast offer her to stay." Her step father gazed at her in a way she shifted in discomfort.
"Yes please Eva. I miss our skin care nights." She said wistful.
"Not right now mom, I have an interview 2 days from now. I have to prepare for that." She excused.
"Why don't you join my company? I will put you to a good place." He said holding her hand on the table.
That's what he did, he acted nice infront of her mom while harassing her with his eyes.
"Yes Eva, why don't you do that? That way I would be less worried about you because you will be infront of my eyes." Her mom urged.
"Mom, I want to get a job on my merit and not connections." She excused. She would work anywhere but under that bastard.
"Okay, if that's the case, we will hire you on the basis of your merit. Just come for the interview. Right Eunseul?" Jun-ho asked his wife.
"Yes."
Eva was trapped.
"Come on Eva, eat." Jun-ho put the meat in her plate before he touched her necklace touching her neck instead and she couldn't even do anything."This necklace looks nice, where did you get it from? I will buy one for Eunseul too." He suggested and his wife smiled as she continued eating.
"It was gifted." She gently pushed his hand away.
"By whom?" He interrogated.
"By my boyfriend." She lied to make him go nuts.
Jun-ho's smile dropped and he clenched his fists as he glared at her.
"Oh really? When did it start? You didn't tell me. I would like to meet him." Eunseul was happy for her daughter.
"Sure mom, at my place someday." She smiled at her step father.
"Eunseul why don't you bring the kimchi? What if you forget giving that to Eva?" He asked and Eunseul went away to bring that for her.
"Leave my wrist." Eva whispered to her stepfather as he held her wrist tightly.
"Aren't you flying too much? Do you think I would leave you? I have access to your apartment. I can come any night and you would still not be able to do anything to me." He threatened her and tears filled her eyes. She was scared now."Don't forget the times when I came into your room and had my way with you while your mom was dead asleep next door. You could do nothing than cry to me to leave you." He sneered and she was shivering now."Have you so early forgotten those nights?"
He jerked her wrist away when his wife came and Eva wiped her tears.
"Eva, are you alright?" Her mom frowned noticing her baffled face.
