As the sun's rays deliberately hit against her sensitive skin, the youngster was fully awakened by its heat. Sohee drowsily rubs her itchy eyes, not being able to find a reason for her to get up so early as sleep tries to allure her once again.

Not until the youngster got alarmed by a knock on the door.

❝ Can I come in, Ryu Sohee? ❞ , he requests, showing respect to the little girl's privacy as the youngster woke up immediately and fixed her messy self.

The way she's looking like a total mess didn't sit right with Sohee as she didn't even realize that she had a wonderful sleep in a long time.

❝ Coming! ❞ She rushed, slipping into her brand new slippers which Heeseung had bought for the guest room. Once the opened door revealed the intimidating figure who's neatly dressed in his usual black pitched suit and a catchy black tie that made him look smarter than usual.

Heeseung's bangs were messed up as some covered his deep brown eyes, trapping Sohee for a while to be mesmerized under his gaze throughout the eye contact. Heeseung scans the female from head to toe, wanting to cackle internally cause she looks like a sleepy cat who just woke up with her squinted eyes. He's just a few years older than her and yet, this teen was making him reminisce about his youth which had never been enjoyed so freely.

Shrugging the unnecessary thoughts away, Heeseung just focused on speaking about the importance before heading off to work. ❝ You have school today, right? ❞ Hearing the mention of the depressing hellhole, Sohee disappointedly dropped her shoulders and remembered that she still had to continue having the responsibilities of being a student if she's continuing to breathe.

❝ Yeah, I guess. ❞ She just needed to hang on for a bit until Heeseung's found a solution to cut the black thread for communicating them...Everything will be over afterwards...

Nodding in confirmation, Heeseung decided to leave the girl to her own business. ❝ There's a driver outside for you, just tell him the location and use this card if you're having any financial problems. ❞ His pearly hands firmly held a black credit card, outstretching for her to accept but the emotionless girl refused to accept it.

❝ I really appreciate it but no thanks, sir. ❞ Rejecting a huge opportunity to spend loads of money, Sohee just exhaled heavily as spending another day at school sounded bothersome for her. Heeseung's amused, very since humans were greedy creatures who would do anything for money but the chill girl really seemed to be done with her life.

Judging by the way she's being dressed in the same clothes from yesterday, Heeseung could tell that she didn't bring extra clothes with her. ❝ Are you sure that you can go to school like that? ❞ Heeseung didn't intend to insult the way of her clothing but wouldn't she be breaking their school's dress code?
