It was indeed an intense day for Eunha again. Maid Chaewon herself found it hard to calm down Eunha just now. Eunha was seems to be very traumatized by what had happened. She kept shivering in fear and often said that she was scared. She numerous times said to her that she's afraid that it might be her father's guys, looking for her to kill her, to torture her and more. But Maid Chaewon thought of a very different idea. After she succeed in putting Eunha to sleep, Maid Chaewon decided to go and met Jungkook at the second floor, at the reading room where Jungkook always spent his time.

And she was correct, Jungkook is in the room, looking at the family portrait. Maid Chaewon knocked the opened door three times and called for Jungkook, asking permission if she can borrow his time for a while.

"Sure, Maid Chaewon." Jungkook said with a smile and put the family portrait back to its place and take a seat. "Have a seat." Jungkook offered and Maid Chaewon agreed.

"Actually i want to tell you something, sir. I believe it jas something to do with what happened today." Maid Chaewon said, began feeling uneasy as she was piling up these information since the morning.

"What is it?" Jungkook asked, starting to take attention at what Maid Chaewon was about to say.

"Yesterday, about 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning, i went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. And then i saw Sir Junghyung was on the phone at the living room. I don't want to disturb his conversation so i walk quietly to the kitchen but i can't help but accidentally eavesdropping. I really should fix that bad habit of mine." Maid Chaewon said , feeling ashamed.

"It's okay Maid Chaewon." Jungkook said, "What did you heard?"

"I heard, he was asking someone to came over the house. He told the people on the phone to wear disguise and take away a girl, brought her to the mentioned place which i can't hear well. After what happened today, i can't help but to think that the fake policemen who came today is under Sir Junghyung's order and the girl they wanted to kidnap, is Eunha." Maid Chaewon explained, feeling a little bit relief after she finally had told Jungkook everything. But that's just for a while when she see Jungkook's reaction is silent and eyes locked on the floor.

"I-I .. forgive me for recklessly accused Sir Junghyung. Very bad of me i shall say. I'm very sorry sir. I didn't meant to-" before she could finished, a deep voice greet them both at the door.

"That's right Maid Chaewon, how could you accused me just because you eavesdropped me on the phone. There are two mistakes you done here." Junghyung said, counting with his fingers. "What you heard was about my project with my friends. I was helping them to make a surprise to our female friends. That's all." Junghyung said and take a seat beside Maid Chaewon.

"You should apologize to me instead, don't you think?" Junghyung smirked, looking at Maid Chaewon. The look on Junghyung's face send chills to Maid Chaewon. Stuttered in her words, Maid Chaewon apologize and excuse herself to go home.

Junghyung just watched until Maid Chaewon went out from the room and moved to talk to Jungkook.

"You wouldn't actually believe her, do you?" Junghyung asked, resting his back against the chair.

"Why can't i?" Jungkook asked back, looking straight to Junghyung. "I barely know you. How can i be sure that you are not that kind of person who would not do such things?" . Junghyung chuckled and fix his seat to face Jungkook, hands on his knee.

"I can't disagree with you about that. Yep, i admit it we're not that close." Junghyung said, looking at the family portrait on the table. "But i hope we could stay like that. Besides, you and me is not even blood-related. You yourself don't want to admit me as your brother, don't you? So let's do it as the way you like." Junghyung manipulate the conversation, making them off the main topic. Jungkook however is not interested in playing along. What Maid Chaewon said might be true. Plus, he knew about what happened at Junghyung's work. He could still hold to the idea that what happened today might be Junghyung's doing. But for what reason? To kidnap Eunha and become a criminal? His mother is a lawyer, so he might can't get away from being punished. So what's the point? What is his ulterior motive? Grudge? But the loss of Dad has nothing to do with Eunha.

"Ouh Yerin-ah. Don't wait for mother to come home today. I'll be sleeping at Mrs.Jeon's house today. Sir Jungkook asked me the favor since he's afraid Eunha is still scared to be alone. I need to be here to keep her company since Maid Choi has something to do at home. Are you okay of that?" Mrs.Chaewon asked over the phone to Yerin, telling her that she couldn't make it home.

"Is Eunha okay?" Yerin asked. She had already heard about what happened to Eunha from her mother. While her family now able to settle down but Eunha is still living in a miserable life make Yerin's thought that it would be the best to meet Eunha soon. But she still wasn't sure when, and how she can fix her past mistakes with Eunha. Maybe she should asked Taehyung.

"I can't say she's okay, but i can see some changes in her. She is not that quiet anymore but still she looks scared. Maybe she can overcome her trauma slowly. All we need to do is giving her support that she needs." Mrs.Chaewon said. "I hope you can be here with her. She might need you now and this might be the best time for you to make up with her."

Hearing that makes Yerin lost in thoughts. "I'm not sure i'm ready. But i'll try." Yerin said and the two said good bye before hung up. Realizing that she still have some time, Yerin decided to go meet Taehyung, to ask for his opinion.

Lucky for her, she went just in time when Taehyung had finished his shift. Yerin stopped Taehyung from keep avoiding her.

"Yah, listen to me first before you ignore me." Yerin said, still preventing Taehyung from walk away by spreading her arms.

"What is it now. I'm hungry!" Taehyung said, feeling upset. Yerin is already used with that attitude of Taehyung's easily get upset when he's hungry.

"I've made my decision. I want to meet Eunha. But i don't know how." Yerin stop for a while before continue. "I'm afraid of how will she react if i suddenly popped out. Besides, my mother said Eunha is having a hard time now living in Jungkook's house. Something seems not right, it almost like something or someone don't want Eunha to be there."

"How does your mother know?" Taehyung asked, confused. He did know that Eunha now is living with Mrs.Jeon since Mrs.Jeon insisted her too. He thought everything is fine since he heard nothing bad from Jungkook. "Is she okay?"

"My mother works there. As a maid. To answer your second question, i don't really know how was she. Few days ago, two guys disguised themselves as policemen and tried to kidnap Eunha. Luckily Jungkook was fast enough to figure out their fake identity. And now my mother said that Eunha was pretty traumatized by what had happened." Yerin explained.

"Woa, that guy Jungkook! He don't say any words to me about this!" Taehyung scoffed in disbelief. "Lucky for him he managed to stop them. If not, i'll tear that boy into pieces!"

Hearing how Taehyung worried about Eunha makes Yerin a bit.......jealous?

'Everyone is worry about Eunha. Will there be someone that will worry about me like this?' Yerin thought to herself.

"WATCH OUT!!" Taehyung saw a motorcycle recklessly riding so fast and about to passed beside Yerin, too near he could say. Taehyung quickly pulled Yerin's shoulder and brought her with him away from the roadside.

Yerin was too panic that she couldn't brain what to do. Letting her body being pulled by Taehyung.

"Crazy man!" Taehyung yelled to the motorcyclist. "Are you okay? Did you hurt? Did he bumped your arm?" Taehyung asked while checking on Yerin.

Yerin couldn't help but to smile. "I'm okay. Thank you my hero." Yerin said, giving her sweetest smile to Taehyung, making him blushed.
