In the end, it was indeed an act that should not have been done.
Eun Jo, who disliked the word ‘regret’ more than creepy bugs, shivered.
Is this the only thing you’re capable of…?
It’s not because of alcohol or the atmosphere.
…You’re just not in your right mind.
“…….”
A public and blatant kiss in such a place.
And with Kwon Jae Ha, of all people.
No matter what reasons are brought up, this is an action that can’t be justified.
Eun Jo let out a deep sigh.
In the desire to intensify the effects of alcohol, she quickly downed a glass of juice, but she still felt dazed.

They say that when you fall in love, it’s easy to lose your way.
However,
Eyes go blind, and ears stop hearing; it might be only natural.
Some even lose their intelligence.
Even those who believed themselves to be very rational and logical suddenly become foolish.
That’s the illusion called love.
In short, they become fools.
Eun Jo herself knows this fact better than anyone else.
Hasn’t she experienced it firsthand?
It’s a conclusion she obtained after paying a significant price.
But.
What’s crucial right now is that Yoon Eun Jo is not currently in a state of love.

She’s engulfed in a feeling of foolishness.
It’s not the first time, but back then, she could use the excuse of being young.
Moreover, she paid a miserable and cruel price for it.
But what excuse can she give herself now?
Her entire body is shrinking due to guilt, self-reproach, or shame.
There was no plausible reason to cover up her wrongdoing…
No matter how much she searched, she couldn’t find one.
Rather, she had come to realize that she desired the man just as he had said but couldn’t admit it to herself.
She acknowledges her physical desire for Kwon Jae Ha…
That’s how Yoon Eun Jo is at the moment.
She had been consumed by a simple physical desire to have a man.

Even if it’s a body without a heart, it’s a fact that she had been captivated.
Is there any reason to continue refusing him?
Why…?
Why should she?
She had felt that intense pleasure when their lips met, the physical craving she had thought she had forgotten.
She wasn’t forgetting; she had been denying it.
She mistakenly believed that she could cover it up with her pride, in her weakness that made her resent herself to this extent.
She mistakenly believed that she could cover it up with her pride, in her weakness that made her resent herself to this extent.
To the point where she felt suffocated, she recalled the exhilarating shiver as if her breath was being taken away.
For a very brief moment, she had surrendered to a simple desire.
In an instant, both her body and mind were entirely captivated.

From the moment she saw him again, she had continuously reminded herself not to waver.
In the end, she had become nothing.
“…….”
With a bitter smile on her face, Eun Jo took off Jae Ha’s jacket from her shoulders.
The deep sense of defeat combined with the chilly air made shivers run down her spine.
As she felt utterly powerless, swallowing the humiliating emotions deep into her throat,
She saw Sun Woo, who had distanced himself, approaching Secretary Kang.
And later, she spotted Jae Ha heading somewhere from the room where the poetry reading had taken place.
Could it be…
Eun Jo abruptly stood up from her seat.
It wasn’t the self-blame, powerlessness, or defeat that bothered her the most.

It was the intuition that she might be facing the worst-case scenario.
No one should dare to, especially not Kwon Jae Ha.
They must not discover the existence of the missing child!
The two of them stood together.
The content of their conversation remained unknown, but what kind of dialogue would they exchange?
Sun Woo was not a reckless person by any means.
And in reality, Eun Jo had never discussed any details about the missing child with anyone.
The only person in this world who knew how it had happened was Yoon Eun Jo.
And it would remain that way.
“…….”
Jae Ha, you must remain completely oblivious, to the very end.

I don’t even want to allow you the agony of knowing!
Her fingernails dug into the flesh inside the tightly clenched fist.
It felt like a massive and sturdy dam collapsing all at once.
Resentment and remorse, which she had thought she had erased, surged back like a flood.
Certainly, she had left all that garbage-like resentment and curses behind in New York.
She had sorted out that all the grievances and anger from the past were useless and worthless apparitions.
Those things she had thought were no longer worth thinking about, even when holding Daon in her arms.
Why.
Now, for whatever reason, staying by Jae Ha’s side had become a very dangerous thing to do.
She needed to leave as soon as possible.
If she had to throw herself away to make it possible, she would.

She would get away from Jae Ha.
Even if she died, she would never bring up the cruel past while looking into his eyes.
Never.
It was easier to be faithful to desire, as if she were a beast, as if nothing had ever happened.
A hundred, no, a thousand times easier.
“…….”
