- Namjoon's POV -

Soyeon: *pointing* Is it that one?

Me: Yes.

Soyeon: That's where we are staying?

Me: No.

Soyeon: You just said you owned that house!

Me: I do own that one.

Soyeon: Then where are we staying?

Me: We're not there.

Soyeon: *pointing* So you own that house, that house, and that house.

Me: I do.

Soyeon: And the house where we are staying?

Me: You're a smart princess.

Soyeon: What do you do with all that property?

Me: Rent it to tourists.

Soyeon: Of course you do.

Sometimes I wonder what goes through Soyeon's mind. She just functions differently than most people. She's the very opposite of robotic. She limits herself but still seems...free. It's odd to me because she's also afraid of her own shadow.

I'm proud of her. Over the last twelve days, her mood has been the best it has been since I've met her. And depending on her mood, the men on the ship would be able to touch her. Well, I'll be able to. She doesn't let anyone else still. If she can get comfortable with me, I hope she will be able to do so with other people.

I lied. I like it just like this. All mine.

The boat came full circle, parking on a dock. The staff carried our bags to the car that pulled around for us. Kenny, the driver, took us over the house. Soyeon sat on her side of the limo, looking out the window like a kid on their way to Disneyland.

JJ: Finally. We're here. I call dibs on the master bed.

Me: No you don't.

JJ: Yes I do.

Me: You're staying and the four seasons.

JJ: A hotel?

Me: Yeah. Bye, JJ. Ken! Make sure he makes it to his room.

JJ: Fucker.

Soyeon stared at the house with wide eyes, standing still as I opened the door for her. She dropped her bag in the foyer with her jaw, gasping. And I got a show of her very rare smile and giggle.

Mrs. Davis: Oh, Mr. Kim! You're here!

Nadine Davis worked for one of my mom's estates in Atlanta. When she  sold it, I offered her a job here as the house's caretaker. She comes in every now and then, waters the plants. Makes sure the vacationers visiting don't trash the place, and fines them if they do.

She shook Soyeon's hands, kissing the top of them like she probably does with her grandchildren. Soyeon smiled and bowed, shaking her hand back.

Mrs. Davis: And this must be Mrs. Kim! Congratulations by the way. A shame you didn't fly me out to the reception.

Me: *laughing* I wish Mrs. Davis. We were eager so we went to elope.

Mrs. Davis: *laughing* Oh! How dare you deprive me of seeing a ceremony!

Me: I'll invite you for our renewals. Compromise?

Mrs. Davis: Compromise. You picked a good one Namjoon, she's so cute.
