The Shinsung Group had many houses, but the biggest among them was one that occupied an entire private, unnad island on the sea.
The house could only be accessed through a portal as a precaution against terrorist groups.
Thats why EunAh returned to her house for the first ti in a year. Her loud voice spread through the hallway.
"Oppa! What's this?!" EunAh pointed toward a place with many photos of when she'd beco younger.
"Photos of when you turned younger."
"I know that! Who put them in such a big fra?!"
"That was probably grandfather. He really enjoyed it. He said he felt like he beca 10 years younger as well"
"That makes it look like I'm a dead person! Put it down!"
To think they'd taken down an expensive painting and put a picture of her there instead.
"But isn't it cute? I rember you loved being carried on my back."
"Forget about that and where are Mother and Grandfather?" Kim EunAh quickly brushed off his comnt and brought up the main topic.
JunHyuk seed used to her attitude. "They're with visitors. We're going to have dinner soon. Youll be joining us, right?"
"Yes. After all, I wanted to et them."
There was a reason why EunAh said she'd participate in the dinner despite usually avoiding situations like that.
[Participants]
[Shin KangYoon - Shin-oh family]
[Yu MinSeo - YuJin Company]
[Shin MiHyang - ]
"Okay~ Let's see how great you are."
EunAh was going as the heir of the Shinsung Group to see the Shin-oh family that had cast aside her party leader.

From the air itself, Sumires well-decorated room was completely different from his. A sweet scent wafted from a diffuser, and her household appliances were well-organized. YuSung began to notice those small details after he finished eating.
'I can't believe that mine and Sumire's rooms are in the sa dormitories.'
Clack.
He put his spoon down and looked at Sumire. "Sumire, it was delicious."
Even though he hadn't said anything weird, the atmosphere was tense. Sumire nodded without being able to look him in the eyes. "Th th-thank you."
YuSung was thankful that she was speaking with such honesty.
[Even though were so close, there are many things we dont know about each other]
Although YuSung was at the sa party as Sumire, there were many things he didnt know about her. Sumire was, to him, an important party mber he wanted to keep close. He was happy when they talked to each other.
"You're right, Sumire."
It was important for party mbers to understand and believe in each other.
'Now that I think about it I was just busy making the party mbers stronger.'
You couldn't call them partners if you werent close to them.
'Focusing only on the technical parts is like treating your party mbers like tools.'
YuSung was reflecting on his actions while Sumire nervously smiled at him.
"We dont know that much about each other" he said in a serious tone.
YuSung noticed that Sumire was interested in his past, but he hadn't spoken of it because he didnt believe there was a need to. When he saw he talk honestly about her past though, he changed his mind.
'Seeing how noona approached Sumire'
Since the Shin-oh family had started getting involved, his past wasn't his anymore. Sumire had the right to know why HaYoon was acting like that.
It will probably take a lot of ti to tell her everything.'
YuSung gave up on his usual night training. Sumire was an important party mber to him, so she had the right to know.
"Sumire, I'm going to take a shower. Let's get to know each other slowly in the remaining ti."
The rain had gotten him wet, so taking a shower was obvious, but Sumire couldn't help but cough.
"Wh-what?!"
Sumire watched YuSung head to the bathroom while making a blank expression.
* * *
* * *
She was just happy having YuSung co to her dormitory room and to being able to spend ti with him, but the situation had taken an unexpected direction.
[We dont know that much about each other]
Had he realized sothing after what she said? He had thought about sothing for a while before speaking.
[Sumire, I'm going to take a shower. Let's get to know each other slowly in the remaining ti.]
"Ah, uh"
She heard the sound of running water, and that only made her blush even more.
- As expected, it turned out like this in the end.
Laplace said in a calm voice tone.
Sumire began playing with her fingers. "Laplace"
Laplace while feeling proud while looking at Sumire tearing up.
- This was inevitable. It's weird to say it with my own mouth, but my child, I'm really attractive.
- Even the hunters that ca to hunt struggled because of my beauty.
- What about my body? Fufu. Let's leave it there.
A few of her mories had returned along with her strength.
The beauty of the Witch of Calamity, Laplace, was a calamity on its own. She was an evil 'witch'. Despite that, she'd decided to remain single. Princes and other important people from all around the world had desperately wanted to get married to her.
For example, the 'Ruler of the Darkest Territory' had been fascinated with her beauty. Because of that, he'd given her two of his favorite subordinatesan Archlich and a familiar spirit.
- My child, it isn't that you just look a bit like . We're too similar.
- I'm sure there isn't a single man who wouldn't beco infatuated with your beauty.
That was why Laplace was proud after seeing YuSung's reaction.
"B-but Laplace! I'm not yet" Sumire said while playing with the potato salad.
Although she tried not to think about it, she kept hearing YuSung's voice.
[Sumire, I'm going to take a shower. Let's get to know each other slowly in the remaining ti.]
She couldn't stop her imagination.
She thought of a daughter that looked like YuSung and a son that looked like hera happy family sitting around the dinner table and eating.
When she saw YuSung coming out of the bathroom while wearing comfortable clothes, Sumire subconsciously lowered her head.
"Y-YuSung?"
"Sh-should I also take a shower?" she asked in a low voice.
Sumire hiccuped.
YuSung took out a banana milk from his pocket, stuck a straw into it, and said, "Yes. I'll be waiting in the room."
Her mouth began to dry up, and her heart was starting to beat faster. Even after entering the bathroom, Sumire couldn't believe the situation.
They were alone in the dormitories.
It had rained so much that YuSung couldn't return. He had just finished showering, and now she was showering.
Swoosh-
Maybe it was because she was taking a shower with hot water, but her face was really red. There was no going back. When she finished, she put on the bathrobe and looked at herself in the mirror.
