Meeting the family

"Aren't you going to speak? Or are you mute now?"

Hwan was a bit shocked by the scene he was witnessing, but he soon intervened seeing as da-hee was too tired to deal with her sister at the moment.

"Hello." hwan said as he stood between da-hee and da-min. " My name is Lee hwan, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Immediately noticing the name, da-min looked at her sister confused as to why Lee Sara's son was in their house; but da-hee just looked away and walked to her room.

"Hey, I'm still talking to you."

"Let her go. She is really exhausted. She has been through a lot today."

" Fine, I will speak to her later. I'm sorry about what you just saw."

"It's fine."

" I didn't even welcome you properly, do you need something to drink?"

"No, that won't be necessary, I was just planning on dropping da-hee off."

"Why would you be so close to da-hee? You do know what happened between her and your mother right?"

Suddenly a little smirk appeared on Hwan's face and then he replied. "Of course I'm aware, but I'm not going to abandon my girlfriend when she needs me the most; and besides, that incident made me love her even more. Again it was nice to meet you, goodbye, have a nice day."

Da-min did not reply to his farewell, as she was too stunned to speak. She didn't know what to be more confused about, the fact that da-hee had a boyfriend or that it happened to be someone like Lee hwan.

Later that night after da-hee had slept a while, she went to the kitchen because she was hungry, and on her way there, her sister was sitting on the couch in the living room.

"You're finally awake."

"Shit!" da-hee said in shock. " Do you just wait out here to ambush me?"

"What are you doing?"

"(sigh), what are you talking about now?"

"I know that you're up to something, you must be; because why else would you be dating that boy. You do have your little escapades here and there but you have never been in a relationship, at least one not serious enough for them to call you their girlfriend."

" You told me to make friends. What's better than being the girlfriend of Lee hwan? I am just doing what you told me to do."

"And why did you come home early today?"

"I got into a little argument with some brats at the school. I came home because I had a headache and I was tired."

Da-min stood up from the chair and walked up to her sister. she wasn't convinced by her story and her sister could see the disbelief on her face, so to assure her, she said. " Nothing serious happened, if it did, someone would have called you, right?"

"And the issue with Lee sara?"

"Obviously, she does not approve of me dating her son, but I will take care of it."

Da-min walked closer toward her sister, and then she said, in a cold manner. "Hmmm, I don't know, but I feel that there is a storm coming for the both of us, and you are at the center of it, but just know this, I will not sacrifice myself again for you."

Da-min walked out of the room leaving da-hee standing there alone in the dark living room.

When da-hee got to her room; she laid on her bed and let out a deep sigh. When she looked at her phone , she saw that she had received a notification, it was from hwan.

"Free up your Saturday, you're coming to my home. My dad would like to meet you."

After seeing this, da-hee dropped her phone on her bed and just said. "Fuck."
