As soon as he got home from school Jake immediately got ready for a jog. He wore track pants, a white t-shirt and a black hoodie. He deliberately came home earlier before Taeri.

Ah, it doesn't matter to her if the girl comes home from school alone. Jay will definitely take the opportunity to get closer to Taeri. Jake snorted.

After tying his shoelaces Jake continued downstairs. It's been 2 weeks since he has jogged and today he invited Sunghoon. He didn't want to invite Jay, afraid his secret would be known.

Sunghoon who was waiting for him in the yard scolded when Jake was out.

"You're out, Taeri, you know?" Sunghoon asked as he put the phone in his pants pocket.

"Need to?" Jake replied and Sunghoon patted his forehead. Somewhat annoyed with Jake's selfish and cold attitude.

Sunghoon is nothing, after what happened at school earlier, surely Taeri wants to talk to Jake. He definitely wants to know why Jake scolded Taeri.

The girl made no mistake but Jake vented his anger on Taeri. If Sunghoon was in Taeri's position he must have lost and cried at that time.

Honestly, Sunghoon wanted to laugh at his cousin's attitude. He had known Jake since they were little and he knew how Jake reacted when he was angry or not.

"It's your wife. You must know!" Sunghoon replied again. Jake rolled his eyes as he brought his face closer to Sunghoon's.

"Correction, wife on paper. That's it!" Jake replied in a firm tone. Trying to convince Sunghoon.

Sunghoon laughed cynically, "said the one who asked where is his wife at."

Jake rolled his eyes, he distances himself from Sunghoon and steps towards the gate. He doesn't want his mood to get worse just because Sunghoon is busy talking about Taeri.

That Taeri, this Taeri. He was sick of hearing the girl's name. On the one hand,

he wants to release his stress by ageing. Sunghoon laughed a little.

"Wait for me!" Sunghoon shouted before exiting the gate.

"Are you going back on your own? You don't want me to send you?" Jay asked as soon as they both stepped out of the school building.

Taeri's fresh face looked old. Taeri just nodded, she didn't want to bother Jay even though she had already dialled his driver. Besides, she didn't want their secrets to be revealed.

Although she regrets marrying Jake, she still remembers their agreement. And Taeri is not someone who easily breaks promises.

Maybe, it's not time.

"I'm ok, you don't have to worry." Taeri replied again with her sweet smile. Jay also unknowingly carved a line of smiles for Taeri.

"You ignore what Jake said earlier. Maybe he's emotional about his personal problems." Jay added.

Taeri just nodded, she remembered back what she had talked to Ahjumma Lee. Jake often felt all his efforts were in vain because of people his parents are less attentive.

Taeri understands that to be the best is not easy.

Taeri's reverie vanished when the sound of a car horn was heard. She turned and there was already his personal car there. She immediately asked permission to go home from Jay.

The man waved his hand with a smile. Taeri waved before she got into the car. As soon as the car disappeared Jay whispered to himself.

"That driver. I look like I've seen it before." Jay whispered but he just shrugged. Ignoring, maybe he misjudged.

Home

Taeri stood at the window looking up at the increasingly cloudy sky. Then she sits on the couch, Ahjumma Lee calls her to eat but Taeri refuses.

She fell asleep in the living room waiting for Jake and woke up to the sound of the door closing.

According to her suspicion, Jake had returned home with his clothes soaking wet. The man only glanced at her for a moment before going up to the room. Taeri kept standing.

"You wait first!" Taeri called while chasing Jake who was already at the door of the room. She immediately approached.

"Where did you go? I-I'm been waiting for you." Taeri added.

She didn't dare look at Jake because she didn't want to see that face while getting insulted by him. Jake immediately turned his body, his mood was not good plus Taeri as well.

He held Taeri's chin so that the girl looked at his face. Taeri was nervous looking into Jake's eyes.

"I want to go wherever it's my right and you don't have to wait back. Rules you know?" Jake said slowly then released Taeri's chin.

His wet hair dried using a small towel. Without hearing a reply from Taeri, the room door kept closing making Taeri pause.

Still, at the same time he was relieved that Jake was home.

"I'm just worried about you." muttered Taeri.
