The both of them went to the nearest grocery again, buying the stuff are needed at the house.

She grabbed the cart and put the young boy on top of it, starting to roam around the place.

"Alright Su-ho which one do you like?"

She stare carefully with worries.

"Sung Jin-woo? Who is that woman next to him?"

She hid here presence, hiding behind the bars of products.

"What are they doing? Is it possible..."

She begun to feel the intense jealousy in her heart staring at the both of them.

"Anyway, why are you here?"

"I was just doing my groceries"

"Then why are you following us?"

"Wait you knew!"

"Of course I knew, I sense you the moment you entered here"

"Umm... I have my reasons" Nervously said.

Ringtone*

"I think I better get this call, wait for me a minute"

"Sure take your time"

He walk away a little distance from them and answered his phone.

"Yes?"

Both women are awfully quite for a moment being nervous to another till one woman said.

"So anyway, I heard your dating with Sung Jin-woo at the amusement park is it true?"

"Yes but as friends really"

"I see..."

"I also have a question to ask as well?"

"What is it?"

"What's your relationship with him?"

She remain silent with a little blush until she answered.

"Oh you don't to worry about that, our relationship are just friends that's all" She smile.

"For how long?"

"Well about 2 years from now since he became S-rank, I have never thought he became that when he was reawaken E-rank"

"E-rank?"

"As can you see, he was my former comrade when he never reawaken as S-rank from back then"

"I see... How much did you know him"

"Well..." till she grin.

"What are you grinning about?"

"Because he was the kind of hunter to get hurt easily inside those dungeon"

"Seriously... He really get hurt? for how many times"

"A lot actually, Whenever he got injured, I always came to his side and heal his wounds. On that time I was very disappointed at him for getting hurt easily like he wanted my mana drain out"

"Is he really that far off from the chart?"

"Yeah, In the past everyone called him the world weakest hunter, however I don't see that sight of him"

"What did you see in him?"

"A hunter who doesn't give up even he was injured for how many times he takes. Fearless even though he was almost killed in the process and also brave, head straight forward to a foe he can't defeat. He was only doing this because he was paying hospital bills for his mother so that's why I don't see him that way"

"You know him very well"

"Perhaps"

The boy interrupt the conversation between women, calling out the blonde woman.

"Mama"

The bright orange hair woman was surprised hearing the boy phrase.

"Did that boy call you..."

"No! I mean... he just my nephew, he was only calling me that for making things easier"

"Really? you really have a motherly figure afterall"

"Do I?"

"Maybe..."

The Monarch return back, seeing both women converse.

"Looks like your getting along?"

"I guess"

The man look at the blonde woman and ask.

"Cha, are you free today?"

"Why? "

"We're gonna grab lunch at the nearby restaurant, you want to come?"

"sure-"

"Wait! If I come along, it will makes things awkward. I might became a third wheel, maybe I should not come so that there will be less problems but... Somehow if I look at them there look like a happy couple and makes me jealous, maybe I should reject his offer" her thoughts

"I think, I have to pass"she answered.

"Why?"

"I have my reasons"

"I think you should come, Cha. the boy is looking a little hungry" the orange hair woman said.

"Hmmm..."

She stare the boy, drooling from his mouth watching food products around him with a sound of growl from his belly.

"Su-ho hungry" he look at the blonde woman with sparkling eyes of cuteness shown in.

"I guess I have no choice do I"

"Yep" he said.

... Later on on the afternoon...

The four of them arrived at the restaurant and entered. They sat down the most available sit of four while looking at the menu pads.

After that the food was prepared on the table and then they start to eat.

.... A moment of eating...

After they finish eating, they have a little time to chat to each other.

"Sorry for all the trouble"

"Don't worry, I'm the one who invited you, no need to apologize"

"I actually enjoy watching him eat like a beast, he's very cute don't you think" the orange hair woman said.

"Indeed he is, His charms are cute as a bunny" she replied.

"More like a pig" he said.

"Hey!" she snap.

"Am kidding alright, no need to be mad about"

"You better be" She pout with bright pink to her cheeks.

The man couldn't say anything but grin to his face till he suddenly stood up and walk.

"Where are you going?' the orange hair woman ask.

"I think, I need to go at the restroom" He replied with a smiled.

"Alright"

The man went to the restroom and left the three of them talk out.

"He's sure change a lot ever since when he was still an E-rank"

"Really?"

"Yeah back then, he was very skinny and slim like he haven't ate for weeks"

"I can see that..."

"He's cute as well, whenever I healed his injury, he got embarrassed"

"How cute is he when he was E-rank?"

"Like a baby chicken"

"Do you really need to discribe him like that"

"I don't know... A weak puppy perhaps?"

"Maybe I'll trust your judgement on that"

"Anyway, ever since I quit as a hunter. He's been fighting for a lot now and I haven't convey-... Nevermind"

"What are you gonna say, Ju-hee?"

"I don't want to say it... it's my personal feelings afterall" she said calmly.

The blond woman widen her eyes in shock, gripping her hands harder under the table, realizing that she has also feelings for him.

"I have a question Cha" the orange hair woman ask.

"What is it?"

"Do you like Sung Jin-woo?"

She remain silent, hiding her unfazed expression behind her hair.

"Yes... But as a friend"
