     They were there again, in Taehyung's warm house. After agreeing to Taehyung's suggestion which seemed hard but tempting at the same time, they got back to his house. Taehyung had a room prepared for her and she thought that was so sweet of him.

     Even so, she didn't know until when she could stay there of course she wanted to live with him longer than the life itself, she knew she couldn't. His heart belonged to someone else.

     That evening, they were just being a potato couch and spent all time watching the television. Meanwhile Elsa, bickering alone on something whether she should tell him or not. A spur of sigh escaped from her cute mouth. She should.

     " Kim Taehyung, I need to go somewhere tonight," she proposed suddenly towards Taehyung who was munching a bowl of popcorn.

     " Where?" the latter raised his brow and tilted his head while his mouth never stop chewing.

     " Umm...my house. I need to get my clothes, I have told my maid to pack them for me. You know I only have my school uniform and like two pairs of clothings only that I bought. I can't buy the whole mall, can I?" Elsa looked at the phone in her hand, spacing out there, waiting for her maid's reply.

     She contacted Leora secretly so she could get to her house without anybody catching her, maybe someone like her stepmother. Little that she knew, her statement got Taehyung thinking hard.

     He glanced at her who continued watching the movie. Silence filled them but Taehyung seemed bothered with what she said. He never thought that she would be that serious, which also included leaving the house forever. He was concerned, more like he cared too much.

     " Els...are you sure? You are not gonna leave your house forever, aren't you?" He asked, the snack in his hands was no longer be given attention by him.

     Elsa raised her head to meet his serious eyes, furrowing her brows at his weird response. Well, what was he trying to imply?

    " Why? You want me to live in that hell? I told you I can't live there," she blurted, strict as she was angered by the mere thoughts of being stuck in the house forever.

     Taehyung heaved a deep sigh before straightening his sitting position to a more ready one on the single couch.

     " No..but..should you leave all of those? I mean your father and your life. They are yours, Els," Taehyung bit his lower lip, worried of Elsa's outburst.

     He knew she was so sensitive talking about her broken family, but he wanted her to know that all of that could be solved.

     He didn't want her to have a shallow mind and ended up living a misery in the long term. Elsa sighed and rolled her eyes until they ended up looking at the ceiling while Taehyung was anticipating for her real decision.

     " Kim Taehyung...I...he doesn't think of me as daughter anymore. He even disown my brother. It's not impossible to do the same as me. He, Park Junha, has stopped loving us," she simply said but he could see the glint of hurt in her eyes.

     " But..."

     " I know what's in your mind, Kim Taehyung. Don't worry, I won't stay here forever. I will learn to earn my own living. I can survive as long as it is not in my father's house. If that's your concern of, maybe me leeching off your life."

     The thing she said snapped him from his thoughts. How could she even think that he was thinking like that? It hurt him slightly but he just tried to keep it inside.
