My true identity, which led to my political marriage, is half-human, half-beast.

When we got home, we lay down next to each other in bed.

Then, I remembered the sleeping pills I had seen during the day and glanced at the person.


전정국
Do you have anything to say?


김여주
...yes?


전정국
The side of my head has been itching for a while now.


김여주
ah...

Ugh, I got caught.

Let me just ask.



김여주
Hey, by any chance...


김여주


김여주
sleeping pills...


김여주
eat?

To my question, the man simply answered with his eyes closed.


전정국
Do not interfere with private life.


김여주
...


전정국
I think it was in the rules.


It was cold.



김여주
...sorry.

After my apology, silence fell again.

And soon after, the man's mouth opened.


전정국
Tomorrow, we have a family dinner.


전정국
Get ready, I'll pick you up at 6 o'clock.


김여주
...yes.

When we arrived at the restaurant, the man got out, opened the passenger door for me, and placed his hand on the door frame to prevent me from hitting my head.


Please don't treat me badly.

To shake people,

Please don't mislead people into thinking you're doing a good job.


As I got out of the car, the man extended his hand to me.

I took his hand.


Did I eat something wrong?

I felt suffocated.

The man looked at me and gently stroked my forehead.

Then he smiled faintly and whispered.


전정국
Smile.


전정국
Acting, I have to do it.

Then he looked at me, smiled once, and took my hand.


A fake smile.

It was difficult to even guess what kind of cold side was hidden within it.

정국 엄마
It hasn't even been a week since we met,

정국 엄마
You seem to be on good terms.


전정국
That's right, you and the heroine.


전정국
The more I get to know him, the more attractive and good he seems.

And then he looks at me and smiles.

I laughed along with him.

Sigh-

It was a laugh.

To others, it may just be a happy smile.

I had to exhale like this.

Because I hate this feeling of being constantly tied down and suffocated.

여주 엄마
Yeah, is Jeonseobang doing a good job?


김여주
...Yes, he is a warm and affectionate person.

I felt suffocated.

And something...

This feeling is familiar.

My body temperature is rising...

I'm breaking out in a cold sweat.

A feeling of suffocation and a pounding heart.

somehow,

I felt strange today.

Are you tired?

I got up from my seat in a hurry, pretending to be relaxed.


김여주
I need to go to the bathroom for a moment...

And then I quickly headed to the bathroom.

Just in case, I went into the last room with a window and locked the door.


Heart rate rising,

And the whole body tingles.
