Jung So Min

I feel tired today. But, totally happy. Spending times with Shin Hye and Yong Hwa-ssi is fun. I should do this more often. I grin happily.

Then, I see my house's image gets closer as Yong Hwa-ssi's car keep moving forward. My house. Eomma and Unnies. I sigh deeply. My cheery mood definitely vanish in snap. I feel like something bad will happen soon. Well, I never have good feeling when it come to them anyway.
"What is it, So Min-ssi?" Yong Hwa-ssi asks me. It seems that he notices the change of my mood.
I look at him and find him smiling politely to me. We just drop Shin Hye at her Coffee Shop before Yong Hwa-ssi takes me home. So, it is just the two of us at the car. "Nothing." I just want to end the conversation. It is not like I am being impolite. But... Talking about Eomma and Unnies.. I just don't want to do it.   "So.. Tell me about your step Eomma and step Unnies?" He suddenly asks.   "Eh?" I am surprised. "You know about them?"
He nods. "Shin Hye told me before."
Ahh, yes.. During the process of looking for Suzy's accessories, Shin Hye did tell me that she spent time with Yong Hwa-ssi when he looked for coffee and banana muffin. That was why Shin Hye directly said yes when I asked her to accompany me. Hmmm.. Something fishy about Yong Hwa-ssi and Shin Hye. I grin again.
"So Min-ssi?"
"Ah.. Eomma and Unnies." I try to let out a light smile. "They are my only family now. I am so lucky to have them." No matter how bad they treat me. If Appa did not marry Hye Soo Eomma. I will have no one to accompany me in this life.
"They treat you well?"   His question, again, took me by surprise. What did Shin Hye tell him? "Eh.. Yes. They do." A little white lie comes from my mouth. Is it a white lie?   "Here we are, So Min-ssi." Yong Hwa-ssi stop the car.

I glimpsed at my house then glance to Yong Hwa-ssi, smiling. "Thank you so much." I bow. "Your helps mean a lot to me."

"Don't mention it." Yong Hwa-ssi smiles.

I smile back at him. "Thank you once again." I say before I step out from the car and close the door behind me.

"Nice, Maid!"

I stun. My whole body stiffen. Good Lord! Yoo Bin Unnie's voice. I slowly raise my face and find her stands in front of our house's door. "Unnie.." I murmur.

She walks closer to me with her chin up. Like usual. Making me lower my face even more.   "Home late. No explanation. You are getting on my nerves, Maid."
"Excuse me."
Eh? I turn my face to my right. Yong Hwa-ssi is standing next to me. He glimpses at me before he glances at Yoo Bin Unnie and smiles warmly.
"So Min-ssi is doing a favor for Mr Bae, her boss. So, she is coming home late." Yong Hwa-ssi states.
"And, you are?" Yoo Bin Unnie's voice is changing. Lots as in LOTS softer.

I cannot examine her expression because I still keep my head hangs low, do not dare to look up to her.

Yong Hwa-ssi bow lightly. "Jung Yong Hwa. Nice to meet you."

The tension is changing. I can feel it. Yoo Bin Unnie no longer let out intimidating aura as before. She is loosening herself. Because of Yong Hwa-ssi? Oh Please.. Not her. My Unnies.. Tae Hee Unnie is chasing Mr Kim. Hm.. Mr Kim. Where is he now? What is he doing?

"I am Kim Yoo Bin. So Min's Unnie." Yoo Bin Unnie offers her hand. "Please call me Yoo Bin."
So Min's Unnie? I hold my breath. Yoo Bin Unnie never call me by my name. She even did not want to be recognized as my Unnie before. What is going on here. I suddenly seriously feel unease.

On the other hand, Yong Hwa-ssi takes Yoo Bin Unnie's hand and shakes it lightly.
"Do you want to come in and have a cup of coffee, Yong Hwa-ah?"
I shivered a little. Did she just call him, Yong Hwa-ah? Not Yong Hwa-ssi?
Yong Hwa-ssi releases her hand. "So sorry, Yoo Bin-ssi. I have some other errands tonight."
"Tsk. Too bad."
Very good! Yong Hwa-ssi would definitely know how they treat me in reality if he steps his feet inside the house. That is not good. I don't want Mr Bae realizes my sadful personal life. I am glad Yong Hwa-ssi drop the invitation.
"As the matter of fact, I should be going now. And, I am sorry once again for taking So Min-ssi home late. When it comes to Mr Bae's request, we cannot object."
"Yeah.. I fully understand. No worry. So Min will be just fine."
I glup hard. Just fine? Like seriously? I am not sure I will be just fine. It seems like I will surely be in another 'fine' circumstances. I sigh deeply.

"Glad to hear that. Yoo Bin-ssi, So Min-ssi.."
I glances at Yong Hwa-ssi who looks back at me and gives me assuring smile.

"See you tomorrow at office." Yong Hwa bows a little.
I also bow. He turns his body fast and heads to the car.
Just after he steps into the car, "Damn it, Maid! How do you find that gorgeous man?! Tell me more about him!"

"They are leaving?" I ask through my phone. No! Don't leave. Tsk!
"Yes, Mr Kim." Ji Yong answers from the other side.
"Are you still tailing them
