She had been sitting in this room since 10 am. She was exhausted from the journey, but still, there was no place to rest here. She wasn't even used to resting, she was always busy with something or other, and now she was pacing around the room.

When Taehyung came in, knocking on the door, and said "Let's go home" in his gentle tone, she smiled. "Yes, let's go." She started to pick up her things, but Taehyung stopped her. "Leave it, my man will bring it." He gestured for her to go ahead, and she quickly followed him.

The man standing there opened the car door for her. She had seen servants opening doors like this in TV dramas, and now she was experiencing it herself, which made her laugh. Then she softly said "Thank you."

There was no conversation between the two of them in the car. Then, at one point, Taehyung stopped the car and got out, going somewhere. Y/n looked around, and when her eyes fell on the street, she saw small children lying on the road.

She thought, these children must be orphans like me." Seeing the helplessness of the children, she remembered her own childhood. She didn't even realize when Taehyung got back in the car and started the engine. The silence was prolonged.

"It seems like the change in weather is making you feel unwell," Taehyung said, breaking the silence. "I'm fine," she replied in a weak voice. "Oh, you're crying," Taehyung said, now looking at her face. "Why are you crying?" Taehyung asked, himself unable to understand why he was asking this question.

Maybe he had never seen anyone cry like this before. "The children are so young..." she left the sentence unfinished. "Isn't there unemployment in Korea like this?" he asked gently.

Yes, there is unemployment, but people don't sleep on the streets." She couldn't tell him that she had never seen anyone sleeping on the streets like this before, having never ventured out of her house.

Silence fell again, and the car stopped near a building. "Go inside from here, this is the key, flat number 8, and take this food too. I'll park the car and come," Taehyung said, handing her the key and food. She quickly got out of the car, but didn't go inside, instead waiting for him there.

She didn't know how to tell him that she was afraid to go alone, thinking he would assume she was afraid of everything. So she waited for him there. After about four or five minutes, he came and stood beside her.

"I was waiting for you?" She said, although she had already started explaining. "Okay, let's go." He took the key from her hand and started walking ahead.

"It was a new journey for her, and she started walking step by step with him. He pressed the elevator button, and the elevator took them to their destination. She was carefully observing his every move.

Looking at his face, she felt a strange sense of shyness again and again. Sometimes, she would blush and tap her fingers, and sometimes she would smile thinking about her upcoming life. But despite knowing everything, he remained oblivious.

He opened the door to the flat and stood there. The flat was not very big, and she could see the entire place in one glance.

There were two bedrooms, a kitchen, but no sign of a bathroom door - it must be inside the bedrooms. However, the flat was spotlessly clean. "Sit here, I'll go get the food," he said, gesturing for her to sit down."

"Why would you do it? I'll do it, this is women's work." She quickly took the food bags from his hand and went towards the open kitchen. Taehyung didn't say anything because he couldn't give her any reason to doubt him.

While her gaze was on the kitchen, which like the rest of the house was spotlessly clean, indicating that her husband was cleanliness-conscious.

Y/n, like a good wife, quickly understood this and brought out the food in dishes. They both ate comfortably, and she didn't know the name of the dish, but it was very tasty.
