Trying to Make Peace
Golden Quill - The Legacy (GQ2)Sung-kyung clutched her hands conscious that Jongin still watched her. Was it rude if she started to unpack? Not sure what to do, she crossed to the couch where her bag rested and carried it into Jongin’s closet. “Wow,” she breathed.
“Sure make yourself at home.” Kai followed her with his own bag and they unpacked in silence. Sung-kyung noticed that he lifted two suit carriers out of the bag and hung them up. Next, he pulled out at least four pairs of shoes, then shirts and some casual wear. “I’m done,” she whispered as she sank to the plush carpet and set her sneakers in the shoe rack.
