note: Mrs Lee and Kyungah's aunt/her aunt are used interchangeably, they are the same person.

 

[3rd Person POV]
"What are you two doing?!" Mrs Lee's voice suddenly boomed across the room which caused Kyungah and Changkyun to jump and quickly step away from each other. Neither of them had heard the door click open nor anyone enter the room to find them stood so close together. Their eyes widened as they both looked at each other before they turned their heads awkwardly to look at Mrs Lee who was stood in the door way. 
"Oh! Mrs Lee!" Changkyun called out with a smile to her, like normal, but unlike Mrs Lee's usual self, she didn't respond with a smile and remained emotionless.
"Kyungah. Come with me please." Her aunt sighed deeply as Kyungah quickly nodded and awkwardly shuffled her feet towards the door.
Before she left Changkyun's room, she glanced back at him as they both pulled an awkward face to each other. They didn't dare talk in front of Mrs Lee to each other, they didn't even know what to say to each other, complete silence had filled the room. Kyungah knew she was probably in trouble, Mrs Lee caught them at the worst time possible, when they were stood so close together, and Kyungah knew she had definitely got the wrong idea.
"Aunt, I can exp-" Kyungah began but was flashed an angry glare by her aunt which caused her to stop talking and not say another word.
As soon as his door closed behind him, Changkyun collapsed against the wall and sighed loudly with relief. He felt like he hadn't taken a breath since he realised how close he was stood to Kyungah, and Mrs Lee walking in on them had made that extremely worse. Now he was alone, he was able to get his breath back, but all he could think about was Kyungah.

 

Kyungah awkwardly followed her aunt all the way back to the maid's room, her aunt was silent and so was she, she had no idea what to expect when they reached the maid's room. Her aunt never looked around at her or said anything, the only noise that filled the house was the heavy footsteps of her aunt. Kyungah had no idea how she was going to explain herself to her aunt, but she knew that nothing happened between her and Changkyun, so hopefully her aunt would believe that too.
"So what was going on? Why were you even in Changkyun's room for a start? You're not even dressed in your uniform, you're in your normal clothes, so what were you doing?" Her aunt laid out what felt like a hundred questions for her as she closed the door to the maid's room behind her. Kyungah gulped quietly as she dropped her head to look at the floor. 
"We were just looking at his calendar on the wall together. Did you know we share the same birthdays?!" She told her aunt with a surprised face. But that didn't even distact her. Her aunt folded her arms and looked at her with a serious expression.
"We're just friends. Changkyun felt lonely so he asked me to hang out with him." Kyungah sighed in a more awkward and quiet voice.
"That's all. Nothing else?" Her aunt asked her as Kyungah nodded silently. "Kyungah you can't be friends with him! I know you're the same age, but at the end of the day, you're a maid in the house where he lives with his parents. You are employed by his parents, you can't be friends. This isn't how it works!"

 

Kyungah and her aunt both sighed deeply at the same time as Kyungah didn't know what to say. She knew she was just a maid in the house, but why couldn't she be friends with Changkyun? Surely it was better to be friends with him instead of arguing with him or disliking him. It made her job a whole lot easier being friends with Changkyun and she had actually began enjoying living in the house for once.
"Maybe I should have stayed.. so I can keep an eye on you two..." Mrs Lee began to say but was interrupted by her phone ringing in her pocket. "We're not finished. Wait here." She told Kyungah as she disappeared out of the room to answer her phone.
Kyungah awkwardly stood in the room on her own, she wasn't sure what would happen now or what Changkyun was doing or thinking upstairs in his room, and that was when she remembered, she wasn't in her maid's outfit, she was in her own clothes and that also meant she had her phone in her pocket. Kyungah slipped out her phone and quickly checked her messages before her aunt returned and there were several messages from Changkyun. Kyungah checked her phone to find messages and gif images Changkyun had sent her of cartoon characters and characters from television shows getting scolded and getting in trouble, she rolled her eyes as she sent him the same emoji face.


After only a few minutes, Kyungah quickly scrambled to put her phone back in her pocket as she heard her aunt walking back to the room. "I was going to stay because of what's happened, but I need to leave again. My sister-in-law has taken a turn for the worse so I need to be at the hospital with her. I came back to fill up the fridge so there was enough food for you both." Mrs Lee began as Kyungah looked up at her surprised. She was leaving again?! "Kyungah, I am trusting you. Do not do anything silly like before. Just stay in here, cook dinner when it's time. Do not go into Changkyun's room, ok?" Mrs Lee said in a stern voice as Kyungah immediately nodded to her aunt.
"Ah aunt! Really, nothing will happen." Kyungah told her aunt with a reassuring smile.

Chapter 20: OMG! I can't believe we have already reached the end. Thus chapter was nice and although I'm yearning for more, the story in whole was a pleasant ride. And for some odd reason, I can totally imagine Hyunwoo with his son. LoL... Anyway, thanks for the nice story ^^

PS I'm curious who your next story is gonna be based on.

Chapter 19: Can't believe there's only one more chapter to go. Anyway, I was kinda starting to feel a little bad for Mrs Im when she yelled at her husband but then she had to go and do all emotional blackmail. Wonder how things would go for the final chapter. Will be eagerly waiting for it ^^

Chapter 17: Yay! Half of my theory was right. But the other half did come as a big surprise. Somehow wasn't expecting that. LoL XD anyway, now that the secret has been revealed, I wonder how things would develop herein. Poor Kyungah though! Can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next update ^^

Chapter 16: Whoa a cliffhanger! And I'm not gonna guess whether the two are siblings or not :P anyway, give it to Hyunwoo to be the oblivious even in an extremely tense/awkward situation XD this chapter was nice and I can't believe this story is reaching its end soon. Can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 15: I'm getting yet another theory behind their past and parents. But it will have to wait until the story reveals itself. LoL... Nonetheless, this was a nice chapter. I enjoyed how Hoseok acted when Kihyun and Changkyun interacted. Although I do wonder why Mrs Im is keeping silence regarding these two dating. And glad that these two could talk things out. Anyway, can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next update ^^

Chapter 14: I'm surprised that Mr and Mrs Im only called her to talk about that. Does that mean Mrs Im hasn't told Mr Im about it yet? If so, wonder why. And I agree with Changkyun's take on the DNA results. They grew up as siblings for almost all their lives. So I'm sure that feelings wouldn't change that easily. Anyway, nice chapter. Can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 13: Oho! She saw it! Poor her! And poor Kihyun too. Like I said in the previous chapter, I hope they resolved things and it doesn't change anything between them. I mean even if they're unrelated, they both grew up to be brother and sister. Oh, speaking of unrelated, there was a small mistake in the chapter regarding the result. You said 'there's 0.0001% chance that they are unrelated' and doesn't that mean they are actually related? Lesser chance of something is equivalent to higher chance of being the opposite. Just thought would let you know *sweats* anyway, can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 12: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Now I have a possible theory on what's the secret behind the Yoo family. Anyway, hope this still doesn't change things between her and her brother. And also, hope the one who took his number from the doc doesn't end up getting a hold on him. Also, Mrs. Im hasn't reacted in anyway after finding out who her son is dating? I'm a bit curious of that. Anyway, can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 11: They finally expressed their feelings for each other! This chapter was nice. Chaehwa dating Hyunwoo did come as a surprise. Definitely wasn't expecting that but definitely not complaining either. Although I'm yet to figure out what's the mystery behind her parents disappearance. No clue either. LoL... Anyway, I can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^
