My Downfall | Killers List #3

"Is Eunwoo awake?" Eunbi yawned. She sat down at the table next to Eunha who was finishing her breakfast.

"No. How is Yerin doing? She was crazy drunk last night" she asked.

"Still sleeping. I had to hold her hair up while she was puking" Eunbi sighed. Yerin was a nightmare last night.

"I hated when I had to do that whenever Sowon came home drunk. I should've just used a hair tie" Eunha quietly laughed.

"Yeah. So what happened between Yuju and Umji last night? I could hear them arguing in the other room and then I heard the door slam shut" Eunbi wondered what happened between the two, but she had a pretty good idea of what went down last night considering what she saw at the bar.

"I don't know if I should tell you. I mean it's not really my place to, they should get to be the ones to announce it" Eunha fidgeted with her fingers. She didn't want anyone to find out and then Umji blame her for it.

"Listen Eunha, I already know they're dating. I was the first one to know actually. I just want to know why they were fighting. I think I know why but I want to know if I'm right" Eunbi looked over at Umji who was still sleeping on the couch, she didn't know if she was pretending to sleep or not.

"Oh. I thought I was the first to know and I was honestly excited to be the one to know first" Eunha frowned but chuckled at her honesty. "Umji was angry because Yuju was hanging around a group of girls and flirting with them while she had to sit there the whole time and watch her. I'm surprised I'm not even angry with Eunwoo for doing the same" Eunha fidgeted with her thumbs. She was actually really curious as to why she wasn't jealous or angry that Eunwoo was with other girls, especially since they just got married and are going to have a child soon. She was always jealous when she was with Sowon, so why is it different with Eunwoo? She thought she was just a jealous person, but maybe it was just Sowon.

"Oh...Yuju really messed up last night. Did Umji mention what she was going to do about the situation?" Eunbi was worried for the sake of their relationship. She knew that when Umji was angry she would make irrational decisions.

"Oh god" Eunha facepalmed. "We won't find out until today" She frowned. They were both anxious to see what events would play out, but they were more concerned for Yuju if something did go wrong.

"Maybe we should just let Umji sleep it off" Eunbi sympathetically stared at the unconscious Umji.

"I don't know, Eunbi" Eunha seemed uncertain. "She was crying last night, that doesn't happen often" Eunha had a valid point.

"That's because she loves Yuju. I don't think she will let her go, she'll definitely forgive her" Eunbi could only hope so. But then again Umji was a very unpredictable person.

"Do you know where Sowon is?" Eunha asked. The woman had suddenly popped into her head. Maybe she was missing her.

"She went to her college classes" Eunbi said as she kept her eyes focused on the phone screen.

"Do you know when she'll be back?"

"I'm not sure. Probably not for a few weeks. She'll most likely just stay with someone closer to the collage campus for a few days" Eunbi was too busy looking at her phone to see Eunha frowning.

Sowon confidentially walked into the room and went straight to the desk. Her high heels creating a satisfying sound. She tossed the suitcase on the desk and sat on the chair with her arms crossed over her chest and her leg crossed over the other leg. She had a serious look in her eyes.

"Is it the correct amount I asked for?" She suspiciously asked while she slowly grabbed the suitcase and slid it across the desk.

"Two million, exactly what you asked for" Sowon had to keep her confident facade up but she was getting nervous as the seconds passed.

"I told you he was worth a lot" she smirked as she counted the money piece by piece.

"He also had tons of men protecting him" Sowon sighed and anxiously watched her slowly count the money.

"Yes I know which is even better for you"

"How so" she raised her eyebrows.

"It proves to me how good you actually are. You must have lots of talent and skill if you alone can wipe out eight men" Sowon never thought of it that way. But it did help her situation.

"I guess you're right"

"You guess? No sweetie, I am right. I am always right" Sowon gulped. The woman seemed a bit offended.

"Yes you are" Sowon bowed. The two were both very aggressive woman and Sowon didn't know if that would work out.

"Alright then here's your share" she handed back half the amount of money to Sowon. "Go buy yourself some stuff, like a house maybe" she laughed.

"Thanks" Sowon awkwardly smiled. It hurt her feelings a bit.

"I don't want you in contact with anyone now. Not any friends or family. No relationships at all, understood?" She stopped Sowon before she left so she could make the rules clear to her.

"I don't have any friends to begin with" Sowon laughed. "Especially not any relationships" Sowon painfully smiled. She was longing for someone—for love—but she didn't know how...or who.

"Alright then, glad we got things cleared up and you can officially start missions. I don't do this often but since you have college I'll give you less days of work" she almost forgot to mention anything about Sowon's schedule.

"Really? Thank you! I really do appreciate it" Sowon kept bowing until the woman told her to stop.

"Just go home and get some rest. You've got a big day tomorrow" she smiled.

"Yes I do. Thank you, Jihyun"
