"Oh, there she is!" Chaeyoung pointed out at Lisa who walked out from the building, along with her manager. "Now it's time to say good bye, Jinri-ah. I'm sorry we can't spend more time together, but least you get to try your first pho with me today, right?" said Chaeyoung to the little girl beside her.
Jinri nodded, "And it was so good!" she put her thumbs up. Hugging her Auntie Rosie for the last time, she said, "Come visit me and Eomma again in Paris soon, auntie!"
Chaeyoung patted the kid's back. "I will, sweetie."
They released their hug when Lisa knocked the car's window. Waving her hands at auntie Rosie, Jinri went out of the car.
When Chaeyoung's car finally left the parking area, Lisa asked, "Did you had a good time with auntie Rosie, Jinri-ah?" She continued while they entered the building, "I'm a bit suspicious about her asking you out for dinner. Was she trying to steal my 'Best Auntie' title?"
Jinri giggled. "Don't say that, auntie Lisa. You know that you will always be my favorite!"
"You won't be saying that if you know that Jisoo eonnie already bought two tickets to watch the ballet performance this weekend."
"Really?!" Jinri stopped in her track. "For the Korean National Ballet?"
"Mm-hm. But since she can't leave her shooting in Jeju, you will have to go with me-"
"I'm sorry to interrupt. But I just got a message from the director asking you to immediately head to the assessment room, Lisa-ssi," said the manager while looking at her phone. "He said it's your final taping for today."
"Ah, I see. Can you take my niece to the make up room, eonnie? I will go to the assessment room myself."
Her manager nodded. "Right. Come here, uh-"
"Jinri, my name is Jinri," she said, smiling at the woman.
"It won't take long, Jinri-ah. Just wait there for one hour and we'll go home, kay?" Lisa said, with a smile. She knew that Jinri will be fine since the make up room might be unoccupied because most of the people had done their tapping today and went home. It was only her and... was it Kai-ssi? She can't remember.
"Follow me, Jinri." said the manager, heading to the opposite direction to find the elevator. When it was only the two of them in the room, her expression changed into curiosity. "So, who are you, kid? I saw you in the car with Rosé-ssi earlier and I heard that Jisoo-ssi bought you tickets for something. You also lived with Lisa-ssi. Are you like... one of their relatives? Because I don't think I've seen you before and trust me when I say I've been working with them for a long long time. By now I think I've memorized their relatives including their nieces."
God, this woman is so nosy, Jinri thought. Thinking back to her mother's word, Jinri knew she should make up a lie.
"Remember, baby, while you're in South Korea, no one could know that you're my daughter— nothing good will happen if they know."
Trying to show a nonchalant gesture, she answered casually, "Auntie Rosie is my distant relative, but I can't stay with her because she's really busy now so Auntie Lisa offered to take care of me."
"But doesn't Rosé-ssi have other relatives here? And you're from Australia then? Or is it New Zealand?"
Jinri had to restrained herself from rolling her eyes in annoyance.
