It was Haneul's last night at the house. She had to go back to the city due to work, sadly. Of course, she could have done it from her house but her boss likes her to be close in case he needed something done fast or in case there was an urgent matter and recently there have been a lot of meetings and due to that she had to edit some speeches... Haneul sighed at the thought of going back to the apartment. 

She hoped that she won't have to stay longer than two weeks or so, hopefully by then things can calm down and she can have her peace again, but until then she would have to meet people and she just felt as if she didn't have her privacy. She walked over to the window and looked up at the sky. A smile formed on her face as she saw that it was snowing

"Just for a little while..." she said to herself. 

Her suitcase was packed but she didn't plan on leaving just yet. She had one more thing she needed to do before leaving. She looked over to her bed and saw Z sleeping on her jacket. 

She smiled a little and walked out of the bedroom, down the stairs, and into the living room. She laid down on the couch and closed her eyes. She didn't want to sleep she just wanted to rest a little. Her phone started to vibrate in her pocket but she didn't bother to see who was calling her. Her final hours at this house she wanted to spend in peace. The house was special to her, It had many hideouts and she felt safe in it. Even though she was alone she didn't feel scared.

Ji Chang Wook had the spare key so sometimes he would check up on her just to make sure everything was okay, but that was that. He understood her well and he knew when she wants company and when not. It never really bothered him, because he knew that if she was in trouble or something is bothering her, she can always talk to him and vice versa. 

Out of all the rooms in the house, there was one room that no one ever entered besides her parents. It had a lock on it and her parents later claimed that they lost the key to it. When she would ask what was in it they would always say old papers and similar stuff.  At times the story did stink but Haneul would just brush it off, and even to this day she never bothered with that room, even if she did her parents would probably find a way to stop her, besides it was down in the basement and she never went down there anyway. She had no reason for that.

She yawned and opened her eyes. It was time to get up and get dressed. She walked back to the bedroom and by now Z was awake. He was wagging his tail. She petted the dog and took her jacket. She decided to go to the lake and ice-skate once more before leaving this wonderful place for now. Her favorite time to ice skate was at night. It was dark and peaceful and everything just looked magical on a winter night, especially if it was snowing like tonight. 

Before leaving the house with her dog she packed up her skates and Z's leash. She walked out of the house and down the small path through the woods. She could hear wolves in the distance but she was never afraid of them, in fact, she loved them. There were times when she would spend hours and hours in the woods and just relax, listening to their howls. It felt like a melody to her. 

As she went deeper into the woods it was more silent and the only thing she could hear was her steps in the snow. Her dog was already gone somewhere but she wasn't worried, he'd be back for sure. She started humming her favorite song and her lips formed into a little smile. Soon after she started to sing. Her parents always told her that her voice was amazing but she never really thought much of it. She thought that it was only her parent's talk to give her more confidence.

She arrived at the lake and sat down on a bench that was near it and took off her boots so she can put her skates on. She giggled a little when the cold air touched her feet, to her it felt nice. Like a tickle and it wasn't even that cold to her. 

Once she put her skates on she stood up and stepped on the lake. She closed her eyes and just pushed herself. She knew the lake very well so there was no need t
