Praising thy rival…?

Apart from the low rumblings of the engine, inside the car was so quiet that one could even hear a needle if it dropped. 

There was a dire need for conversation in order to disperse the uneasiness that floated in the air, yet, both the driver and the passenger were too nervous to say a word.

Just then, the blare of a horn came from somewhere upfront. 

"This car is really good." Su-Jin broke the silence. 

She then glanced at Ji-Won, laughing nervously and pointing outside the window.

"I almost can't hear a thing from outside. Even the engine sounds so low, barely audible. It must be really expensive, right?"

"Uhm…" Ji-Won cleared his throat. "Well, yes, I guess."

"Have you been driving it for a long time?" 

"Not really. I got it just a little while after I returned to the country, so it should be about two months now."

Su-Jin nodded in understanding, then fell silent.
