"There she is" SeHo Ahjusshi announced pointing at me.

I just gave him a confused look as I didn't know what he was talking about.

The boy then looked at me and after thoroughly scanning me when he was about to speak, his little brother jumped at me and in an excited voice said, "Yeah! Yeoppo noona is my babysitter!"

I was in a state of utter shock and had no clue what was going on.

"Okay, then I hope you'll do a good job Miss......"

"Miss Seoyeon-sshi " SeHo Ahjusshi completed

" Yes she will..... She's great with kids." Ahjusshi further added.

The boy then took his leave with his brother and the minute they were out of sight, Ahjusshi started babbling

"Seoyeon-ah jebal jebal please babysit that kid for a week, will you? If you don't then I'll lose my job.... please do this for me jebal "

" Ahjusshi! IDK I have my other jobs as well and I should be taking my leave now because Miss Park is going to be angry if I...."

But before I could finish my sentence Ahjusshi stated, "You'll earn more than what you're earning from your current jobs combined.."

And that was all he needed to say.

"How much?....nevermind I'll do it. "

Don't get me wrong....I'm not someone who's money driven but right now I desperately need it to pay for my extra tuition fees.

~ Time Skip ~ 5 PM ~

I was told to be here by 5pm so in the meantime I bid farewell to my previous jobs and now here I am standing in front of the JUNG MANSION.

As soon as I entered I was greeted by the little boy who's name is Jaemin.

"Annyong, yeoppo noona! " he cutely greeted me.

" Annyong, kyeoo Min-ah" I greeted back.

"Noona come lets watch this movie" he said and pulled me towards the couch.

After the movie was over he was hungry so I asked him what he wanted to eat and he said, "Kimchi Bokkeumbap"

I was cleaning up after Min had finished eating and he was just sitting there waiting for me.

"He's such a cutie unlike his short tempered laconic brother" I thought

"Min-ah khaja (lets go) time for bed " I said

JaeHyun's POV

8:15 PM

I then got up from my study table and made my way downstairs for dinner.

To my utter disgust.... Mr SeHo was sleeping on the couch with his mouth wide open in a very uncouth manner.

I just brushed it off and made my way towards the kitchen to see what was prepared for dinner.

"KIMCHI BOKKEUMBAP (our favourite), that Seoyeon girl must have made it" I thought

I put it in a bowl and took out a bottle of orange juice from the fridge and made my way to my room.

As I was passing by Min's room I could hear a familiar tune as I got closer Seoyeon-sshi was humming 'tian mi mi' to Min.

Mum always used to sing this to Min-ah at bed time and to me as well when I was a little boy.

I closed my room's door and sat on the couch watching News and eating dinner.

When I was done I took the dirty dishes down to the kitchen.

Mr SeHo was still in same position except this tone he was drooling.

"Disgusting" I thought

After cleaning up and I checked my watch and it was 8:45 already.

Seoyeon-sshi should go home now its getting late.

I went up to Min's room and knocked in the door.

"Shhhshhh"

The door opened

"He just fell asleep" she said

She then gently closed the door.

"Did you have your dinner? I was just coming to ask you that" she said

"Yes, it's getting late so you can go home now."

"Ah Neh.. " she said and made her way down the stairs.

I then entered my room.

The TV was still on and they were showing some headlines about how three men gang raped a girl yesterday.

I quickly grabbed my jumper and made my way out of the house. I could see her at a distant

I jogged towards her and placed my hand on her shoulder

To my surprise she nudged me hard with her elbow

"Aaaahhh" I semi-yelled

She turned around and in an angry tone, "That's what you get for bothering.... OMG Jaehyun-sshi...." she stated in a shocked and concerned tone

I was on my knees because of that blow she helped me get up and asked, "Gwenchana?!"

I cleared my throat and said "Uh.....now let's go"

She looked at me with a confused look and I just said, "I'll walk you home it's dangerous at night."

She just laughed and now I gave her a confused look

"Its okay my home's just a 15 minutes walk from here."

I just pulled her and started walking forward

After a good 10 minutes walk with no words exchanged I decided to break the ice.

"So how far is it from here...your home? "

"It's just three blocks away.....I can go from here." she said

"No its okay I'll reach you."

When we reached she turned around and with a smile said, "Gomawoyo Jaehyun-sshi."

I just nodded and made my way back home.

~ Mingyu's POV ~

"Look at the time, it's already 9pm and still no sign of her. I can't believe it this girl and she's not even answering her phone."

I was looking out the window to see if I could spot here and just then I saw her with some guy.

"Tskkk... So she was on a date! "

~ Ding Dong~

The door bell rang I angrily stood up and went to open the door.

" Annyong Gyu-ah ~ you don't know what just happened...."

But she couldn't complete as I turned around  and shut my room's door with a loud bang.
