                Dawon looked at herself again in the mirror. She was still in the body of a young woman. She fixed the ribbon tied to her hair. "Let me borrow your body for a while, Wendy eonni"

She pushed the door open and gasped at the house design. It was a modern-style house. She walked through the wooden floor of the 2nd level platform. She landed her hand on the black metal railing at the end of the platform where she can see the whole 1st floor from above. A couple in their 50's was at the dining table. The man who was in suit looked up from reading the newspaper in his hands and saw Dawon.

"Wendy" he waved her over. "Come let's eat, buttercup"

*Me?* "Nae, appa" Dawon replied. She turned to her left and there was a flight of stairs. She descended the stairs.

There was a flat screen TV set mounted on the white painted wall and a black leather sofa set at the living room. Her eyes went to the photo frames arranged on a drawer behind the L-shaped sofa. She was the pictures of the family with happiness in their faces. She saw Wendy with her parents and another unfamiliar younger male. Dawon lifted her head to enter the dining area. Her steps paused at the sight of the open kitchen beside the dining area. Yehyeon who was in chef attire was busy cooking at the kitchen.

"Come, dear" Mrs. Son was carrying a plate of steak from the kitchen to the dining table. "Nae" Dawon stuttered. Yehyeon turned to her and smirk before turned to the stove again. "Are you okay, dear?" Mrs. Son asked as she sat beside her husband.

"Nae" Dawon approached the table and bowed. "Good morning, omma, appa"

"Good morning, Wendy. Come let's eat" Mr. Son gave her a smile and out the newspaper away. He picked up the utensil.

Dawon took a seat across her mother. Her eyes glued to Yehyeon in disbelief. The sound from the steel fork against the plate took her eyes away from him. Dawon looked to Mrs. Son.

"You sure you okay, sweetie?"

Dawon nodded. "Nae...omma" She picked up the fork and knife and stared at the steak. "It's your favorite steak" Mrs. Son stated. "Half cooked. Eat up"

"Nae" Dawon nodded and tried to cut the chunk of meat. *How do I do this? I never have this before*

Mr. Son saw her and chuckled. "Come" he held out his hand to her plate. Dawon looked up to him and automatically moved her hands away. Mr. Son took her plate and helped cut the meat into small pieces. "There" he gave her the plate again with a smile. "Thank you very much" Dawon bowed. Mr. Son chuckled "Anything for my princess"

"You just want to pamper with your appa, is it?" Mrs. Son glanced at her while Mr. Son chuckled. "You're jealous, dear?" Mrs. Son smirked. "Not a bit"

A smile appeared on Dawon's lips as she witnessed the love of the two couple. *Wendy eonni is so lucky. She's much loved from her parents*

"Where are you going today?" Mr. Son glanced at Dawon. "Out with Moonbok again?"

Dawon nodded as she munched on the last piece of meat. *So they know Moonbok?*

"Honey" Mr. Son called his wife. "Should we have lunch together today?"

"Sorry but I have a lunch meet with some client" Mrs. Son replied. "For the new project?" "Yes" "I'm so worn out from the project" "Don't worry, dear. Once the project settled, I promise to take you to the cruise" "Really?" her face lit up. "Of course. Family vacation" he smiled.

The doorbell rang that made them lifted their head to the main door.

"I'll get the door" Dawon stood. "No you don't have to" Mrs. Son took the glass of orange juice. "He'll make his own way into here"
