"I thought you were not staying here anymore. How about those kids?" Jiyong asked as he looked around the house, missing the place.

"Kids? Hayi?"  Jiyong turned to her as she puts the flowers on a vase. He smiled as she looked as good as the roses

"No, there were two boys here last time." It took Dara a few seconds to get who he was pertaining to "Oh Jihoon and Jeongwoo? They moved next door, we all can't fit here. They just stayed here for a while since there were still tenants occupying over there and no one was here."

Jiyong nods and puts his hands on his pockets, looking at Dara head to foot. "Aren't you going to change?" She was wearing her favorite sleepwear, an oversized shirt.

"By the way, do you mind if we go on dates like this? I mean, the time?" Dara glanced at him and decided to . "Why? Do you not want to be seen with me or something?"

Jiyong's hand on the steering wheel tightened and that did not get away from Dara's observation. "It's not like that.." He starts, "but it's more serene and intimate not having much people around, you know." He lied, but not entirely. The more people that can see them, the more possible photos of them might be taken and who knows what the media will do? As much as possible, he wants to keep Dara to himself, especially not sharing her with the devil of a media. Media nowadays isn't what it used to.
