Yeoju lay in bed, lost in thought for a moment, when Bo-eun suddenly spoke to her.
"Hey, heroine."
"Oh my gosh!! Surprise!"
"Uh.. I didn't know I would be this surprised.."
"..haha, why did you call?"
"Can't sleep because it's the first day?"
"no?"
"however..?"
"Just thinking about it"
"The heroine and I have opposite personalities... I don't really think about things hehe."
".. okay?"
"And don't ever like the young master."
"why?"
"Young Master, I've never dated anyone before, but I've been rejected by everyone. And when a housekeeper confesses, you reject her outright and cut her off?"
"You even cut it?"
"Yeah, that's why I can't confess and hide it."
"Um... thank you. Good night Bo-eun. You have to go to school tomorrow."
"Yeah, sleep well too, Yeoju! Hehe."
Bo-eun seems so bright and cheerful. She's cute. I like you, Do-ryun. Does Do-ryun hate everything?
".. I don't know, it's all annoying.. (mumble)"

"Lady, wake up the young master."
"yes"
I went to the master's room and knocked. Knock, knock.
"You have to go to school, Master. Are you awake?"
Then, without saying a word, he opened the door and went into the living room. He seemed a bit unfeeling. He was so cold.
"What is this sweet young master in my imagination... he's like an icy rink..."
But it's so my style. I want to flirt and challenge myself. But I need to get paid to do it, even if it's just for a month.
"Kang Yeo-ju"
"yes?"
"Aren't you ready to go?"
"Oh, it's over once you put on your uniform."
"I'm going with my friends. You should come with Lee Bo-eun too."
"No, wait, that guy is Park Jimin."
"How do you know that?"
"cousin."
"They don't look alike"
"i know"
"Where do you get the quip from?"
When the cold young master's words returned to me, I panicked for a moment. So, after telling him to go first, I changed into my uniform and went into my room.
"..sigh.."
***
I ran into Park Jimin by chance during lunch. You bastard, you're a good catch.
"Hey you brat"
"Where did you put my brother?"
"What are you doing? Hey, pay me back."
"Ah~ You don't like it?"
"Yeah, they ripped me off for 5,000 won just because I said I was going to a PC room."
"What's the big deal about 5,000 won?"
".. what..?"
"Ugh, I misspoke..."
"..yeah you don't know. I'm going"
"Uh.. no no no.."
The girl was already trudging towards the classroom. Jimin grabbed her and spoke.
"Oh, I'm really sorry... I'll give it to you tomorrow."
"If you don't give it to me, I'll tell my aunt."
"Oh really.."
"You were wrong. (Tingle)"
".. sorry."
Then, Master? Senior Lee Ji-hoon? He came. I think something is wrong.
"Jihoon... help me... this guy is bothering me..."
"You took my money. You know how I lived."
".."
Park Jimin, who had been joking around and wiping his mouth, stopped. It seemed like he had only just realized what he had done wrong.
"Fuck... This is fucking bullshit. Why am I buying this.."
The young master, who had a strange feeling, dragged me away.
"Hey. You."
"why"
Right now, I'm in a state of excitement. The only real love I've ever received is a little from the director. I've been abused by the housekeepers. Sometimes, I've been beaten to the point of bruising. It would be nice to grow up without any pain, lol.
"Why? Hey. You're my housekeeper."
"Do you know my circumstances?"
"You're not my dad."
"I lived for 16 years pretending that everything was okay, even though I was constantly bullied and beaten to the point of bruising."
"..?"
"He's a kid who grew up in Gowawon."
"I was bullied growing up because I didn't have parents."
Hearing that I was an orphan, the young master was speechless. After mumbling for a while, he simply hugged me and patted me without saying a word.
"Can I cry?"
"..when you want to cry, cry a lot"
I was able to shake off some of the sadness I had felt up until now by being held in the Lord's arms.
".. Big, forget about today"
"? yes"
Park Jimin was busy teasing me, asking if I was peeking or what was going on. I just looked at him pitifully, saying nothing.
"Hey. I think you're misunderstanding Park Jimin. She's my housekeeper."
".. ah."
My ears turned red with embarrassment. I'm such a loser. The master sent Park Jimin away and spoke to me.
"Don't like me. You heard what happened?"
".."
When you say that with that face, my lord, my heart keeps pounding.
