Frost covered Isurin’s bright eyes at that moment. Suddenly, it felt like the indoor temperature dropped sharply. Despite exchanging glances for a while, they both stood up at the same time, and Isurin’s departure, accompanied by the sharp sound of the chair, was highlighted by the lights.
Drdr, with a sharp sound of the chair, Isurin left, bathed in light. People watching the three at the table turned their heads in unison, and someone even coughed dryly.
Only when Isurin left did Juah sit in her chair and approached Haeyeon.
“Haeyeon, are you okay? Huh? It’s me, Juah. So, snap out of it.”
As soon as Juah confirmed Isurin’s departure, she hugged Haeyeon, bursting into tears.
Juah had heard about Isurin’s suspicion from Do-ha in advance. That’s why she secretly monitored their relationship during the visit to the Fritz Hotel and the Partner Day.
Even though I couldn’t hear the entire conversation between Haeyeon and Isurin, I heard from Do-ha’s secretary today that the two of them made a promise. I’ve been attentively keeping an eye on Haeyeon’s location all day.
Because of Haeyeon, I checked the location-tracking app that has now become a daily routine. Just as she started moving, following her after a delay, unfortunately, the cars in front collided, causing a traffic accident. As a result, the road became paralyzed, and Juah was able to sit here only an hour later.
“It’s too late. Do-ha-ssi asked you so.”
Juah, discovering Haeyeon, who trembled like a piece of paper, couldn’t help but blame herself. In addition, she admitted that she had underestimated Isurin until now. Wiping away tears, Juah carefully pulled herself away from Haeyeon, who couldn’t even look at her face, and met Haeyeon’s gaze with difficulty.
“Haeyeon, let’s get in the car first. Okay?”

Grabbing Haeyeon’s hand, who was staring blankly with unfocused eyes, she forced her to get up. If she could, she wanted to carry Haeyeon, who was wandering the meadow like a lost lamb, and get out of here.
“Juah…”
The moment Juah heard Haeyeon’s desperate voice, she saw it. A friend left with only despair, like someone driven to the edge of a cliff. It felt like her heart was dropping to the floor, but Juah bit her inner lip. She didn’t want to hear this unstable voice again.
It was the same back then. A year ago, when Do-ha miraculously woke up after a traffic accident. On that day, too, Haeyeon made this kind of voice.
“I had a baby…”
As she spoke, Haeyeon took a breath as if her breath was cut off for a moment and then released her lips again. It was a moment when Juah, who was too surprised, couldn’t stop her.
“Really… did you have…?”
Haeyeon’s shocking words, spoken with a precarious face, were overwhelming.
“Ah…”
Unconsciously bringing her hand to her mouth, Juah sighed. The question Haeyeon just asked was a problem that couldn’t be answered positively or negatively.

When Haeyeon, who was wandering around with eyes that couldn’t find focus, met Juah’s empty eyes, Juah involuntarily gave strength to the hand holding Haeyeon. So that Haeyeon wouldn’t leave anytime.
But whether that was an answer or not, Haeyeon weakly nodded her head.
“So… it was really… true.”
Silence sometimes becomes a more definite answer than ever. Haeyeon, who interpreted Juah’s silence, which was more perplexed than ever, pursed her dry lips for a moment and gave up making any sound.
In fact, even without asking Juah, Haeyeon already knew the answer.
“Haeyeon…”
Although a feeble voice calling her was heard, Haeyeon couldn’t respond to the specter that blocked her path once again. Somewhere, she found herself sitting down, clutching her empty stomach, and making a helpless expression.
Like a malfunctioning robot, her head automatically raised, and she stared at the specter.
“……!”
Light brown eyes turned into black hollows, desperately struggling and gasping in a pitiful abyss.
Where am I? When a familiar voice was heard, Haeyeon snapped out of her daze. She was suddenly in front of a car.

“Haeyeon, get in quickly. Okay?”
Someone pulled her body. Haeyeon, drained of energy, weakly surrendered her body to that touch and was dragged away.
Why am I here?
Like a broken boat drifting in the boundless sea, Haeyeon, with no will of her own, gazed out of the window where rain was falling with a vacant expression. It had suddenly changed from the café’s large window to the narrow glass window of a vehicle, but Haeyeon didn’t realize.
Whether she was in a car, walking down the street, or floating on the waves, it was confusing. The only clear thing was this nauseating feeling. The dizziness that felt like vomiting at any moment was unbearable.
At her limit, Haeyeon dry heaved, but Juah couldn’t see it as she was looking ahead.
“XX. Why are there so many cars?”
Juah, who had been nervously talking, suddenly pressed the horn towards the car that abruptly cut in front.
Honk!
A short beep. It resonated in Haeyeon’s ears.

Vroom.
