Hye Ju comforted herself and took a moment to collect the gift. She stepped over the messy floor, not bothering to clean up the empty bottles from last night, and headed towards the entrance. However, she suddenly felt a strange sensation.
“Come to think of it, did I turn on the lights when I entered? Why do I feel like they were already on…?”
In her absentmindedness, she must have entered with the lights already on. She thought that and took another step, lifting her foot.
Thud. The bathroom door opened.
“Mom!”
Startled, Hye Ju momentarily lost strength in her legs. Thump, her heart pounded as if it were beating outside her body.
“What… what is it?”
The approaching footsteps abruptly stopped right in front of her.
“Hey, little thief.”
“!”

The scent of fresh body wash wafted along with the steam. Through the slightly opened eyes, she saw wet bare feet glistening with moisture. Firm calves rising up along the ankles and a pure white bathrobe swaying above the knees.
And… a towering silhouette with distinct skin tone.
“What are you doing here?”
A low, slightly husky voice.
Her body stiffened at that unforgettable deep voice, even though she tried to forget.
“Kang Ju Won… sir?”
“You’re calling me ‘sir.’ I didn’t know that the first face I would see when I came to Korea would be yours.”
In this moment, he was an uncomfortable man to the point where I wished I didn’t know him.
“Oh Hye Ji. Long time no see?”
He seemed so confident that I even forgot he called me the wrong name. I didn’t know where to look in front of the tall man wearing only a bathrobe, and I had no idea why that person was in this house.

“Why are you here?”
I hesitantly asked, stumbling over my words, and he responded coldly.
“That seems like something to discuss on my end. What’s going on in my house?”
I momentarily forgot. This was Kang Ju Won’s house.
Ju Won said he gave this house to Seung Won when he went to study abroad in the United States. Just a few hours ago, he had told me to clear out the hideout, but now I was standing in front of the landlord in a flustered state. Hye Ju quickly came up with an excuse.
“Oh, that’s… I left something here. It’s a bit complicated to explain everything. You can ask Seung Won about it. Right now, you’re… too underdressed.”
Hye Ju hurriedly felt around the floor, trying to pick up the gift she had dropped when she sat down earlier. After roughly finding the item, she quickly hid it behind her back and stood up.
“Well, since I’ve retrieved what I needed, I’ll be on my way.”
She nodded and turned to leave.
“Stop right there.”

The voice of the grim reaper rang in her ears. Hye Ju’s shoulders trembled.
Step by step.
Each of his footsteps felt like her life force draining like a battery.
“It’s all fine. Whether you’ve been coming in and out of my house multiple times while I was away, or even if you’re not the landlord, it doesn’t matter,” she said.
“If it’s my panties that ended up in your hands, the situation would change, wouldn’t it?”
“Panties… what…”
Instinctively, she clenched her fists, and she felt a piece of fabric that had been placed on top of the gift wrapping in her hands.
“Those are panties I used to wear.”
“!”
No wonder the wrapping paper felt unusually soft.
