It took Hyejin a long time to believe the attorney didn't want to take advantage of her.

The 15-year-old girl spent the following months watching every step Yongsun would take.

The teenager also locked the bedroom door every night before sleeping.

The older girl didn't feel offended because it was perfectly understandable.

Yongsun spent a lot of money on Hyejin's education and well-being.

The attorney hired some female teachers to work in the house and started taking her guest constantly to the doctor to guarantee no disease had scaped the checkups.

The rich woman had considered hiring a shrink too. However, she feared that might make the girl uncomfortable.

After almost a year living under the same roof, Yongsun finally asked Hyejin:

____ Would you like to have someone to talk to? I mean a professional. Someone you could tell anything and they are obliged to keep to themselves.

 _____ The person wouldn't say even to you?_____ The girl got curious.

_____ No. It's unethical and illegal. The doctor might talk to me only if your life was at risk since I'm your guardian. But not reveal your secrets.

_____ Actually I don't really mind. You already know the worst parts.____ Hyejin shrugged.

_____ Still...I want that you rebuild your life from zero, having the right to keep your privacy and being respected. I'll be here if you decide to share anything. But I won't force you to.

_____ Will it cost you a lot of money to pay for this doctor?

_____ No. But you don't need to worry about money, Hyejin-ah._____ Yongsun declared firmly.

_____ How can I pay you if the debts keep growing?_____ The teenager mumbled.

_____ Have I ever said you need to pay me anything?

 _____ No but...

_____ If you feel that you owe me anything, study hard and in the future, work hard too. That's all I wish for you. A nice future. ____ The lawyer said.

_____ You're so weird. I never met someone like you.

_____ Why weird? What's so different about me?

_____ It's just hard to believe you don't want something in return. People are greedy.____ Hyejin exhaled.

The older girl glanced at the teenager in silence for a long time. Then she responded:

_____ I understand your fear. But I'll never ask you to pay me back. I hope we can become friends and I have the chance to see you healthy and happy. 

_____ When can I talk to this person you offered?

_____ If you want, I can schedule an appointment for tomorrow.

_____ Cool. I'd like that.

_____ Alright. I'll let you know the exact time.

_____ Thanks. Can I go watch tv now?

_____ Sure.

Yongsun was glad that they talked for more than a few seconds after a long time.

Hyejin was usually monosyllabic, which made the attorney's attempts to communicate almost impossible. Until that day.
