บท 197: The Girl in Pink

Dae was happy to get away from Nivritti and Jae-Hwa. For the first time, Jae-Hwa sat far away from him. And he knew why. He wanted to get Jae-Hwa away from Nivritti, he wanted her to be jealous of her and ultimately hate her. But his plan kept backfiring. Not even once he heard bad words out of Jae-Hwa's mouth for Nivritti.

On the contrary, Jae-Hwa was now uncomfortable with him. She didn't feel okay when in his company. He was glad that no one asked why Jae-Hwa was sitting away from him. He kept waiting for someone to ask that question, but he was in clear for now.

He was also glad that lunchtime arrived, yet no one said anything about Nivritti's phone. He knew he was careful when he grabbed her phone but in the back of his mind, due to guilt, he had this notion that someone must have seen him picking up her phone and would confront him. But nothing of that sort happened.
