"Boyeong, come here!"
"Yes, mother?"
"Your father and I are having some business partners over tomorrow for dinner. I need you to wear something sophisticated, and show off that polite brain of yours."
"Of course, mother."
"Oh, another thing. They'll be bringing their children. I expect you'll entertain them like we've taught you?"
"Of course, mother."
"That's my good girl."
Boyeong smiled slightly; praise from her mother was rare.
"That's all, don't stand with that silly look on your face, go study."
Boyeong's expression fell faster than it rose.
"Of course, mother."
She didn't study; she sulked in her room, dreading tomorrow's dinner.
It was her only day off from school and she had to waste it preparing for some stiff kids.
But she was a stiff kid too, wasn't she?
It wasn't their fault; their parents' raised them that way.
Boyeong still didn't like it.
She'd much rather spend the day with Namjoon, studying a fourth of the time, daydreaming and goofing off the other three fourths.
But now she had to cancel.
'Sorry Nams, I have a dinner to host tomorrow. Can we meet up another time?'
Namjoon only sent a winky face back.
He drove her crazy.
