Chanyeol waited patiently downstairs in front of the door before Victoria came down just a few seconds later.

"It's fine, why don't you go up?" Victoria told.

He nodded with a small smile before he made his way up the stairs. Chorong who was just exiting the room stopped to glance at him somewhat wearily before walking by. When he opened the door Namjoo was sitting in bed looking pale, but good. A smile overran his face glad to see her.

"I heard you were running a fever last night," he said closing the door and made his way over to sit on the bed. "Are you feeling better?"

"It's gone." She replied. "What are you doing here?"

He didn't say anything for quite a few seconds before he finally smiled gently. "I just wanted to see you."

The way she looked at him made him feel that something was amiss, but she wasn't speaking about it.

"I miss you," he said running his hand through her hair.

Namjoo pressed her lips together to give him a small smile. It made his heart flutter, but couldn't assure him of her feelings for him. And that was something he worried about.

"How's your search for yourself going?"

"Not well."

He glanced at her hands before moving them back to her face. "You still think of me sometimes, don't you?"

"Chanyeol," Namjoo said, "do you believe in reincarnation?"

"It's...possible," he nodded.

Namjoo looked unsure before continuing, "If I tell you that we were once married, would you believe it?"

Chanyeol stared at her somewhat dumbfounded, but the thought about marrying Namjoo sounded just right. He didn't have anyone else in mind for the position of his wife.

"Yea," he smiled.

"Even so, if it takes a while for me to come back, what will you do?"

Chanyeol grew worried. Namjoo was hiding something from him, he could feel it. It was just her way to be like this, always. But he couldn't break through that wall. What if he fought so hard that Namjoo ended up turning away to never return?

"You know I love you, I love you a lot."

She nodded in reply and he grabbed onto her face before giving her a few kisses, and it felt so good to have her lips in his. His heart raced when he felt their noses brush and he didn't want to stop at all. For a second he pulled her toward him and felt their chests brush before he pulled back. The heat of her breath landed against his lips and he smiled while staring into her eyes.

"I'll wait. I can always wait for you," he shifted his hands from her face to her back and pressed her against him for a secure hug.

And Namjoo seeking for some kind of warmth and comfort wrapped her arms around him before digging her face into his shoulder.

"Should I go with you?" Chorong asked in the kitchen. "I should go with you in case. Officer Park did try to kill you the first time you met."

"It'll be fine. You stay here with Namjoo."

"He didn't kill you the second time because that'd be suspicious," Chorong pointed out. "Luhan will watch over Namjoo." Then she paused and asked, "Do you think he's watching her now?"

"I'm pretty sure he's well aware of Chanyeol even if he says nothing about it," Victoria opinionated.

"I feel kind of sorry for him," Chorong said. "I'll go with you."
