Chapter: 57

She looked at him sternly, while his eyes were warm, as always. She approached him and stopped in front of him.

"What are you doing here? Go home," she said and walked past him. 

"Nari-ah..." he whispered, sounding helpless.

She looked over her shoulder; he didn't turn around.

"Can't we even talk for a minute?" he asked.

"You're not feeling well today. So, go home and get some rest." 

He sighed.

"Sorry about what happened earlier." 

"Even though knowing how much you hate me, I-" he paused and massaged his forehead.

"I lost my mind." 

Nari gulped the lump forming in her throat. 

"Sorry? So is that so?" 

She took a deep breath and nodded.

"Okay, apology accepted. Now you may go." 

She unlocked the door of her house to go, wanting this meeting to end as soon as possible.

"Do you regret it?" he asked, and she stopped again.

"From the day you met me till today, do you hate it all?" he asked and licked his lips as he breathed out from his mouth. 

"Regret?" she scoffed.
