Bab 38: Chapter 38

It was only right that Hojoon should leave now. But Arum suddenly got the chills because someone picked her pocket last night. She was scared. She couldn't call Konsu. Even if she called her mother, it would take more than an hour for her to come here. If she could hold out for about two more hours, the sun would already rise.

"Since you've come to my place, why don't you take a nap here?" asked Arum.

"No thanks."

Hojoon remembered that when he was alone with her a while ago, he left the front door open.

"Wait a minute," said Arum.

When she called him again, he sensed what she wanted.

"Are you scared?"

"Yes."

"Really?"

Then he took off his shoes and came back into the living room.

"How come you insisted on crawling up here a moment ago?"

"I didn't know that I'd be that scared."

"So, are you scared now, when you pretended you were not a moment ago?"

"You bet. I just don't know why I insisted. Acting like that just to keep a handbag is really too crazy!"
