2. His house, a strange space

Myungho was silently looking at her. Standing there anxiously.

Shoulders hunched low, eyes looking at the floor. A heart that doesn't even know where to go right now.

Although she didn't say a word, her discomfort, caution, and suppressed guilt were all captured in that brief moment.

“…If someone saw me, they would think I did something big.”

Myungho quietly leaned his back against the wall, crossed his arms, and let out a small sigh.

“There’s nothing we can do right now. The real estate agency is just saying that they’ll resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

디에잇(명호)

And now, it seems like there’s nowhere to go, so I can’t help but let you sleep in the living room or on the veranda. I’m not that bad.”

Se-yeon raised her head in surprise at those words.

Their eyes met for a moment, but Myeongho quickly avoided eye contact and continued speaking.

“There’s a guest room. It’s usually used when guests come over… but it’s empty now.”

Although his speech was still dry, there was a quiet warmth at the end of his words.

“Bring your luggage. I’ll show you around.”

Seyun looked at him in surprise, then nodded slightly.

“Yes… thank you… I’m really sorry…”

Myungho didn't answer. He just walked past her and walked quietly down the hallway.

There was still a hint of caution in the steps of the demonstration following him.

After a while, Myeongho opened a door and said.

“There’s a bathroom and a closet in here, so if you need anything, just let me know.”

Se-yeon looked into the open room. She was speechless for a moment, unable to close her mouth.

It was on a whole different level from the 'full-floor one-room' she had expected.

Luxurious interior, neatly organized bed and table, and even quiet lighting…

This was more than just a guest room.

'This is the guest room.....'

A strange mixture of emotions rose up in Seyun's heart.

At that moment, Myungho turned his back and added.

디에잇(명호)

“…I’m also out of my mind because it happened so suddenly. So, let’s stay quiet and not disturb each other.

디에잇(명호)

And as you already know, you must not reveal this to anyone. If something happens, you will be held responsible."

After finishing speaking, he returned to the living room.

He turned on the TV, but his gaze was fixed on empty space rather than the screen.

Seyun quietly closed the door and entered the room.
