Nana managed to hide her tears until she entered a private room in their once room salon that is now converted to a noraebang house. She wanted to sing and drown her heart with alcohol so she might be numb of the pain she was feeling right now. She threw the paper bag at one side of the room not wanting to see it ever again.

She let her feelings out after she sat on the couch. She cried while punching some throw pillows she grabbed on the couch and hit the table in front of her. Her favorite ahjussi is inside the room adjusting the tone of his guitar but she doesn’t mind. He had seen her at this state so she wasn’t embarrassed anymore. This ahjussi was like a second father to her.

Ahjussi seemed not surprise of her visit. He put down his guitar, went to the door and sneaked his head there to order someone to get some soju. He then went back to his guitar not looking at her. “Do you want to sing?” he asked.

She shook her head. She wanted to take a few shot of soju before singing. Maybe the taste of soju in will ease a little of the pain in her chest. She kept asking herself why she’s feeling this way. She knew he loves someone else, her heart accepted that. But why does it still hurts?

 Three knock at the door and ahjussi went there to answer it. After a few seconds three bottles of soju were in the table in front of her. Ahjussi opened the first bottle and serve a glass for her. She accepted it and drinks it until the last drop. She had drink lots of soju but this was the best tasting soju she had ever had. Maybe because this day is the day she wanted to erase in her life the most and she felt happy knowing that she’ll later forgot this day after she drowned herself with that soju.

Nana couldn’t wait of ahjussi’s second serving of soju. She grabbed the bottle from him and filled her glass to drink. Ahjussi tapped her head and went back to his guitar. She was thankful of him for understanding what she felt and want.

He doesn’t want to talk to anyone right now. She liked the feeling that she’s alone even if she knew that she wasn’t. And that the people who were now watching her will protect her in any way. It was only ahjussi in the room but she knew her parents were also there in the same building, and they too would forever protect us. Living alone for almost ten years, she missed having these people.

Few more drinks and ahjussi suddenly ask something. “Do you want me to kill him this time?”

She looked at ahjussi who doesn’t seem to be joking. And she knew he was capable of doing so. But her answer is no! He doesn’t want anyone hurting Sunwoo.  “I told you to stay out of this!”

“Is it still Jung Sunwoo?”

Nana didn’t answer. How the hell did ahjussi knew it was Jung Sunwoo? And how did he know him? Does his father know about it, too? More questions flooded on Nana’s mind. She’s beginning to feel nervous. Are they stalking on Jung Sunwoo, too?

Ahjussi smirked as if he knew something she doesn’t. “So, it really is Master Sunwoo. Knowing Master, it must be just a little misunderstanding. Te
