her grandpa was a widow until then and without children, single-handedly brought her up with a little help from Mrs. kim their trusted cook and her husband, Mr. kim the family driver. The maiden smiled to herself with the memories of past

she was happy of her simple life back then she only separated the presence of them she leave town when she going to study in college at Seoul as well as she was working during the summer she arrived once only on the holidays that was almost five years ago.

as far back as she could remember, She grew up a large six-bedroom bungalow on a corner a large tract of land by Kwons which was previously owned by of Park she remembered the soaring tree it surrounding her home and the road under the trees, towards the large mansion that residence of Kwons

when she was a girl she is often walk to that very dense road to peek far from the magnificent mansions in the midst of wide lawn in the garden of beautiful and fragrant flowers

she sigh. she never thought that they are poor - until one day while she was playing, she saw the great mansions of Kwons.

when the plane was ground on Busan she quickly counted the number of people crowded the lobby of the airport she doesn't bother to get a cart because the long lineup to getting of that she just pull up a deep sigh and she was trying to lift up her heavy luggage

"allow me" said a low voice and for the second time in two days, she surprised when she looked into his brown, liquid eyes. "Jiyong..." it only She said it isn't like when he was wearing a business suit on previous day, he just wear casual dressed with red shirt, white jeans and canvas shoes

"let me make up for what happened yesterday," Jiyong said he was slightly touching the arm to her when he reach her luggage She accidentally breathed his masculine Scent his cologne. "no i can manage" she said while she avoiding him

"must we argue over such a simple thing?" jiyong said she only gaze at him before she relented. it's really heavily her luggage and she wasn't able to lift it up she intend that she will drag it if she wasn't only pity on her Louis Vuitton luggage given to her by bom

it's only a second hand but it still beautifull "I didn't see you on the plane," she can't stop her tongue to comment as they walking out in the lobby.

" i took another plane," his short explanation to her "but I thought only one commercial flight available at this time--" she suddenly stop when she has enter upon her thought and only a bitter smile glimpse on her lips " of course, you didn't fly commercial," sarcastic her response

"it wasn't my private plane," he excuse "i just rented it from a friend. there was just one commercial flight coming in at this hour, as you already know, and it was fully booked." Jiyong said "you don't have to explain anything to me," she said with sarcastic tone again

he simply shrugged "how long will you be staying in Busan?" he said so what? she said in her thought but she thought she would more easily if she answer him directly "two weeks, maybe three." "then perhaps you can go out to a dinner with me while you're here?"

she was staring in his face, she was looking to him if it for insults but she doesn't saw She looks down "I went home for grandpa, not to get socialize" dara said jiyong doesn't have a chance to reply bercause Dara saw her grandpa she quickly steps that she came near to the old man waiting her arrival area
