“Do they have that kind of thing?”
“At my place, yes. I’m someone who adheres to legal working hours. Miss Song Eunseo, please come in.”
In response to the awkward instruction, Jungwoo raised both hands in a gesture of disbelief. Eunseo, who couldn’t catch on, looked back and forth between the two men in conflict.
“Hurry up.”
With a firm voice, Eunseo quickly swung the bag she had placed on the counter over her shoulder. Hastily rushing, something blurry protruded from the bag.
“What is this?”
Turning her head, Eunseo looked where Jungwoo’s eyes landed before finally answering.
“Sausages.”
“They must be delicious. If there’s any left, can I have one?”
Sausages were a food that the elderly woman with bad teeth, whose gums were soft, loved to eat. She especially liked ones with cheese.

Thinking that she might need to buy them again, Eunseo took out the sausages and handed one to Jungwoo. She also cautiously offered one to Taeha, who was looking at the bag.
“This…”
“No, it’s okay. It’s like a snack for soju.”
Only then did Eunseo see the green soju bottle and the corner of a yellow croaker package protruding from the bag.
Unable to fathom the 49th move of the grandmother, Eunseo, who had become unnecessarily timid, quickly covered the croaker as if fearing he might misunderstand that she spent the night here.
“Then I’ll go in. I really enjoyed the piano performance. Have a good night.”
Eunseo went up the skip floor.
As Eunseo disappeared from sight, Jungwoo filled the On The Rocks glass with ice.
“Where did that woman come from? Where did she come from to the point of moving in? No home? No family?”
Jungwoo’s question was natural. The employees who moved into Taeha’s house were security guards working in the security room, bodyguards, nurses, and Mrs. Ahn, who was in charge of the kitchen. And, of course, only Wooyoung stayed in the main building.

People responsible for laundry, cleaning, gardening, and driving always commuted. So, from Jungwoo’s perspective, this situation was quite interesting.
“She’ll leave soon. Forget about investigating the victim.”
“Leaving soon? Why, can’t she work?”
“It’s not that. Should we also go in?”
“Right, I plan to stay here for a while. Is that okay?”
“Here? What about your aunt?”
The question was meaningless. Jungwoo spent more time here than at home.
“I told my mother. I’m thinking about living independently. Let’s stay together until I find a house. Otherwise, I’ll have to hear the nagging to come back to Mirae Bio again every day.”
Taeha reluctantly accepted, fearing suspicion if he refused.
“Okay, then. Stay here for a while. Use the room on the second floor.”

“The guest room? It’s bigger. It’s more convenient on the first floor.”
“That one is being used by that woman from earlier.”
“Oh, right. You gave her a good room.”
Jungwoo watched Taeha’s back closely as he turned around to get ice from the dispenser.
Something felt awkward, as if it weren’t Kwon Taeha.
Knock, knock.
Around the end of dawn, Eunseo woke up. Regular knocking sounds were heard at intervals. Considering the early hour for breakfast, Eunseo was convinced it must be Taeha, not Mrs. Ahn.
Upon opening the door, Taeha, dressed in a three-piece suit of charcoal gray, was there with a neat appearance. A black coat was draped over one arm.
“We’ll have breakfast at Jungwoo and Seotaek’s. Don’t bother coming to the kitchen. Since you’re surrounded by working people, I thought you might have a lot on your mind.”
The kitchen? Ah, it’s because of yesterday’s incident.
She briefly suspected, just for a moment, whether Taeha might be involved in some scam, but she quickly erased that thought.
Why would he scam? He has everything, and he is someone who doesn’t lack anything.
Living too smoothly, she couldn’t help but wonder if he might dream of experiencing an accident for once. As she thought about it, a ridiculous laughter burst out.
“Why are you laughing?”
“Well, um.”
Clearing her throat, Eunseo searched for an answer. She couldn’t say she thought he might have scammed because he has too much.
“Just laughed for no reason.”
“It seems like a forced laugh.”
“Just happens when I see a good-looking person.”
At Eunseo’s naturally delivered response, Taeha bit his lips slowly and swept his hair back.
“Don’t make fun of me.”

Eunseo tightly sealed her lips and averted her gaze to the wooden patterns on the floor.
“Go back to sleep. It must be tough to wander around all day.”
“Thank you.”
“Thank you… Why do I dislike hearing those words?”
“Well, probably because I’m the one saying them?”
His gaze seemed to intensify.
“Don’t worry. I think I’ll be able to leave here soon.”
“Have you found a place to live?”
“Yes.”
“Did you hire a lawyer?”

“Not yet. But I’ll decide soon. I don’t want to cause any more trouble.”
“Don’t bother cleaning or doing dishes just because I’m staying here for a few days. It’s for the food expenses I’ve eaten here unnecessarily.”
“…,”
“Don’t catch my eye.”
He had no further comments.

Short scene 2:
