As the two of them arrived home, Byul-yi holding onto a bottle of wine while Yong-sun held on to some take out, Yong-sun could only be excited as she possibly can. Her roommate, her roommate who always gave vague answers, agreed to tell her more about her personal life, willingly of course.

Byul-yi could only feel a sense of dread as she looked at Yong-sun, a mischievous grin on her face, regretting agreeing to answer her questions about anything she wanted.

Yong-sun pretty much sped through dinner, only piling on to the sense of dread that Byul-yi had in her heart as she quietly finished her dinner, taking a sip of their wine. "Alright, I know I agreed to it, but please go easy on me if I can't answer everything," she said, leaning her head on her hand as she looked at Yong-sun.
