...

after the class, Joy heads to the Library, since she's also a working scholar in the university she works every Mondays to Fridays as an assistant librarian, she loves to read books, she enjoys her afternoon in the library it gives her peace, and hope that one day she'll be earning her degree and she will conquer her dreams, to become a doctor, and pull herself and her brother out of the poverty line,

..

Sungjae couldn't stop thinking about her, ever since that night, he hasn't been able to sleep well, he wanted to go back but he just couldn't because he already has set his mind, that he's not messing with prostitutes, now he's baffled why does it seems faith is playing with him... he just met her again, not only that but she's his student too, he shakes his head while he heads to the library... just thinking about it frustrates him more, as he was about to stepped in the library a student caught his attention

"Mr. Yook! About the..."

they continued talking, not realizing that joy just passed by beside him... since he's standing beside the library's door... she didn't notice... because she was busy texting her brother,

"oppa, I'll be home late later"

"Araso, but please SooYoung'a don't ever step foot on that bar! I told you! I will earn well... I don't like you working there"

"but oppa! I'm just a waitress... I don't do anything more than that"

"still! don't make me go there and drag you out Araso?"

"Araso oppa" she pouts as she times herself in, getting all the books scattered on the tables putting it in a push cart and placed it back to its places, Sungjae on the other hand, just finished talking with the student, he heads inside still not realizing that Joy was there vice versa, he went to the music section, getting history books about South Korea's music histories, while he was busy looking for the other books, Joy was approaching close still not seeing him, she thought he was just a student, she placed the books on their places, the other book was big, and heavy, she tried to place it on the top but she couldn't reach it, suddenly the other books fell, making SungJae noticed, he looks down at the scattered books and grabs it, giving it back to her... finally he noticed that it was her! the girl he made out last winter break,

"shit it's her!" he cursed in his thoughts, he wanted to get out of there but too late she already saw him...

"a... ahmm I'm sorry" she stuttered and bowed feeling awkward with the situation...

Sungjae was about to leave but he couldn't stop himself from helping her, as he sees her bending over getting all the books scattered all over the floor,

"let me help you" he uttered getting all the books in the floor and held it in his hands, he placed all of it to its place

"kamsahamnida" she bowed again, not even looking him in the eyes,

But Sungjae couldn't stop staring at her they stood there for a few seconds enough to fill the air with sexual tension... making him want to take her right there and then, but he knows he couldn't and he wouldn't! it's forbidden for a teacher to engage in any kind of carnal relationship with a student, she knows he was staring at her, she looked up and their eyes met, Sungjae was about to kiss her, but she pushed him...

"Seonsaeng-nim... please" she whimpered... it made him snapped back to his senses, not saying any word he walked out... Joy couldn't help but sigh in frustrations, she feels attracted to him too... she wanted him to kiss her but she knows they couldn't she might lose her scholarship....
