Dahyun paused, holding Momo's waist, pressing her against the wall in the mansion's corridor. "Dahyun, what's going on?" Momo asked nervously, breathing rapidly.

Dahyun moved her hand to the back of Momo's waist, holding her tighter, and softly asked, "Can you kiss me?" with innocence in her voice. "Dahyun, someone might catch us," Momo replied, removing Dahyun's hands from her waist.

Dahyun then shifted to hold Momo by her neck, drawing her closer, and whispered, "No one's around, unnie," giving Momo a sweet, melting gaze.

Momo stayed quiet, glancing around to ensure they were alone. Dahyun delicately grasped Momo's neck, pulling her closer, and leaned in to kiss her, but Momo pushed her away, stating, "Dahyun, this isn't right," and hurried off to her room, leaving Dahyun on her own.

Shortly after, Tzuyu called for Dahyun to assist with dinner preparations, and Dahyun, relieved that Tzuyu didn't catch them, let out a sigh of relief, saying, "Thank goodness, unnie. Otherwise, Tzuyu would've spotted us."

Sana walked into the kitchen, greeting one of the maids with a cheerful "Hi!! How are you doing?" The maid responded, "Miss, I'm good, thanks," smiling back at Sana's friendly demeanor.

Tzuyu stood next to the maid, doing her work."Come on, let me do that. I'll handle it," Sana insisted to the maid who was cutting vegetables for the salad.

The maid politely declined, saying, "Miss, I'll do it, thanks," still smiling. Sana persisted, "Oh, come on! I want to help," and began cutting the vegetables, secretly wanting to be near Tzuyu.

She was so focused on Tzuyu that she accidentally cut her finger, exclaiming, "Ahh!!" at the sight of blood.

Tzuyu quickly took Sana's hand, expressing concern, "What are you doing? Miss, go get a band-aid," instructing the maid to fetch one.

As Tzuyu cared for her, Sana, instead of feeling the pain, gazed at Tzuyu with affectionate eyes. Tzuyu scolded her, saying, "What? Miss Sana, you're all grown up and can't take care of yourself."

Sana playfully said to Tzuyu, "Well, you're here to do that, thanks beautiful," with a mischievous smile. Tzuyu responded, "No thanks!" and then left, walking out of the kitchen.

Mr. Arthur asked, "Everyone is here, where's Margaret, Mr. Kyungso?" Mr. Kyungso replied, "I don't know."

Jeongyeon volunteered, saying, "I'll go get her," and promptly stood up, heading towards Nayeon's room.

---

Jeongyeon walked in and stopped, hearing Nayeon crying from outside the room. She gathered courage, knocked, but didn't get a response, so she entered. She found Nayeon standing against the wall. Jeongyeon brought her closer and asked with concern, "Why are you crying?" Nayeon avoided her gaze and replied, "Why do you need to know?"

Jeongyeon approached, held Nayeon's hand, and said, "Because I'm your friend."

Nayeon, becoming angrier with the term 'friend', retorted, "I don't want to tell you," pulling her hand away. Jeongyeon, feeling a rush of emotions, pushed Nayeon harder against the wall and moved closer. Nayeon tried to escape, but Jeongyeon held her hands firmly.

"What do you want?" Nayeon asked in a slightly raised voice, still not looking at Jeongyeon. "Look at me!", Nayeon kept her gaze down. "I said, look at me!" Jeongyeon's loud voice made Nayeon finally meet her eyes, tears streaming down her face. Jeongyeon gently wiped her tear, but Nayeon turned away.

"Nayeon, I'm asking you politely, why are you treating me like this?" Jeongyeon inquired. Nayeon looked directly at her but remained silent. Jeongyeon, filled with anger, held Nayeon's arms tightly and demanded, "Nayeon! Answer me, for God's sake!" She pushed her slightly against the wall.

Tears flowing, Nayeon pleaded, "Jeongyeon, leave me!" Jeongyeon, struggling with her own emotions, was finding it tough to handle the situation.

Jeongyeon was furious and emotional, pushing Nayeon against the wall and holding her arms tightly. Nayeon, in tears, pleaded, "You're hurting me, Jeongyeon!" Jeongyeon, realizing her mistake, softened her tone and apologized, "Sorry! Everyone is waiting for you for dinner."

As Jeongyeon was leaving the room, Nayeon expressed that she wasn't in the mood to eat. Jeongyeon conveyed this to the family, and jeongyeon left after taking only two bites, feeling guilty for hurting her loved one. She excused herself, went to her room, and received strange looks from everyone.

As Jeongyeon entered her room, she couldn't hold back her tears, sitting on the floor leaning against the door. "Why? Why, Nayeon!" she cried out in agony. Wiping her tears, she stood up, but Nayeon's words echoed in her mind, fueling her anger. Jeongyeon, overwhelmed, slammed her fist hard against the wall, bruising her hand instantly. In pain, she whispered, "I'm in love with you, Nayeon, and I can't change that now."

------

She couldn't sleep because her fist hurts, so she decided to take a walk instead.

Nayeon and Kyungso were talking, but Kyungso seemed to be pressuring her to talk. "Why weren't you at dinner?" Kyungso asked. "None of your business!" Nayeon rolling her eyes.

"It is now, I'm your fiancé," Kyungso said with a smile. "Yeah, betrayer!",
"Don't call me that!" Kyungso responded.

They heard someone approaching, and it was Jeongyeon. Kyungso pulled Nayeon close and pretended to kiss her. Jeongyeon saw them, which upset her, but she was about to ignore them. Nayeon noticed Jeongyeon and pushed Kyungso away.

Embarrassed, Kyungso asked, "Jeongyeon, up this late?" Jeongyeon fake smiled and said, "I should ask the same."

"Haha, what happened to your hand?"he asked,Nayeon immediately looked at Jeongyeon's swollen bruised hand, getting concerned.

"Nothing!" Jeongyeon quickly said before Nayeon could speak, but Nayeon turned to Kyungso and warned him, "Don't ever do that again!" After the warning, she went to her room.

"What happened to your hand, Jeongyeon?" Momo inquired while they all sat on the couch discussing their new destination. Momo noticed Jeongyeon's bruised hand, her eyes swollen from crying all night.

Jeongyeon, with no expression, replied, "Nothing." Momo persisted in asking, which angered Jeongyeon. She shouted, "I said nothing!" and slammed her bruised fist against the table, causing it to bleed. The silence was deafening as everyone stared at Jeongyeon with concern. Nayeon, in the corner of the room, saw her and tried to approach her, but Jeongyeon went outside, saying, "I'm going outside, don't try to find me, I'll come back later."

Everyone was shocked to see Jeongyeon this angry for the first time. "What's wrong with her??" Momo expressed, not annoyed but concerned. "Well, waiting for an explanation from her is our only choice now," Kai said sadly.

Nayeon sat with them on the couch, saying, "I hope nothing bad happens to her." "Don't worry, nothing will happen, relax," Sana reassured Nayeon, gently tapping her shoulder.

Thanks!
