After they got to their table at the restaurant, Dahee started to ask questions

Dahee: What was that all about? Why were you fleeing?

Dara: What do you mean? I was not fleeing

Dara's Mom: Fleeing what? (asking while busy cutting up food for her grandchildren)

Dara: (kicking Dahee underneath the table) Nothing

Dahee: (All of a sudden excited because she's never seen her sister this secretive since she had her first boyfriend) Eomma, unnie and I will just look at the store next door while we wait for our order, will you be okay by yourself?

Dara's Mom: Yes they're both in a high chair, they're not going anywhere, I can handle it

They went out on the balcony instead.

Dahee: Okay what's up? Who's that guy?

Dara: He's just a random guy I met somewhere

Dahee: Sure (knowing there's more to the story but she has other things to discuss with her sister) Unnie, to be honest, I was worried about you. I don't follow social media that much but I know about what's going on and I don't like it but I can't tell you what to do with your life.

Dara: I'm okay this will pass just like any other scandals I've been rumored to have 

Dahee: But how much more should you bear? It's been years. It's about time people took responsibility for their actions. I can't believe you're okay with all this. Do you even know what they say about you online?

Dara: I know, but I have to

Dahee: For what? Money? Fame? You already have all that, why?

Dara: Because this is the only life I know, they are my only friends...

Dahee: Well your boss is definitely not your friend. He's the one responsible for all this. 

Dara: (Taking a deep breath) Everything will be alright soon

Dahee: I don't like the sound of that but whatever you decide unnie, please know that we are here for you

Dara: I know (hugging her sister) Let's go back, eomma might be wondering where we are

When they got home, Jinoo was already there. 

Jinoo: Noona, I heard you were staying for a week, you should have told us in advance so that I could take off work and take care of the kids while the three of you go on vacation.

Dara: That's so sweet of you maybe this coming weekend we could drive somewhere

Jinoo: Or you don't have to wait for me, if you take the kids, I can fend for myself

Dahee: And leave my biggest baby at home? No way? (kissing her husband while handing him their youngest)

Dara felt a twinge of jealousy, how she wished she had someone as supportive and as loving as her brother-in-law. 

Dahee: I saw Minyong with the new guy today, turns out he and Dara unnie know each other

Jinoo: Oh really? Well I heard he's a great guy, just got promoted to Division Chief. He will be working alongside me on this new project. So what's he like Noona?

Dara: Uhm, he's really friendly and quite involved

Dahee: Involved? Like married?

Dara: No, I mean he seems concerned for other people 

Jinoo: That's good, in this line of work we really need good people skills.

Dahee: So what's his job ? Is he an engineer like you?

Dara: He's an architect

Dahee: And you said you don't know much about him right?

Dara turned around before people see her blush. 

Dara: He gave me his business card (she said while walking away)

When Dara got to the room she shared with her mom, she tried to think about why she's behaving this way. Was it because that guy saw her at her most vulnerable state? Was it because he was so good-looking in his Sunday best? Or was it because of the care and concern he's shown for a total stranger like her? Whatever the reason was, she has to admit, she's curious about him. She's tempted to ask Jinoo about whatever he may learn about Donghae but Dahee might get more suspicious of her curiosity. That was it, just curiosity. It's been a long time when she felt anything romantic towards a guy,
