"H-Hello Ms.Park I'd like to apologize for what we're about to say but Eunjae went missing. She got lost when we went outside to play"

"W-What are you talking about? How can you be this irresponsible?!?" she shouted at her phone tears threatening to fall. Eunwoo had a concerned face as he looked at the shocked woman in front of him

"What happened?" he asked once she ended the call "Eun-Eunjae is missing" she said as she hurriedly took her apron off and began to look for the store's key. Once Eun locked the doors Eunwoo led her to his car and started to drive to the location she was last seen

Everyone was busy searching for the little girl. The teachers were searched around the park while Eun and Eunwoo were searched around the nearby areas, Eunwoo also asked few of his men to look for the small girl

Eun's search was interrupted when her phone suddenly rang "Hello? Is this Eunjae's mother?" she heard a man ask "Yes yes this is her" she eagerly said switching her phone from her right to the left side as she looked around trying to see if they were near

"I found her at the convenience store near the Stardust corp" she looked at Eunwoo and urged him to rush to his car. The man understood what she was trying to say so he took her hand in his and rushed to his car

"He said she found her near your company" the man nodded before hurrying off to his company

*~*~*

"You know you look really familiar" Jaehyun said as he stared at the girl who was enjoying the strawberry flavored melona that he bought for her "That is what everyone says because my mother is pretty" she said smiling at the thought of her mother "Who is your mother then?" before he was able to get his answer he heard a loud voice that obviously belonged to her mother

"Eunjae" Eun said as she hurried towards her daughter. Eunjae's face lit up once she saw her mother quickly running to her. Eun sighed in relief as she embraced her daughter tightly. Eun's sweat was visible and she was panting hard but still had enough strength to embrace her daughter tightly

"Eun?" Jaehyun asked confused as he approached the two. Soon Eunwoo was in sight as he rushed to the mother and daughter in front of him "Thank you so much for finding my Eunjae" she said not even bothering to look at the person who found her

"Mr. Jung" Eunwoo said shaking the other man's hand, that's when Eun finally found her ex husband looking at her questioningly "I'm grateful to you for finding our daughter and helping her bring back home" Eun said bowing at Jaehyun before tugging Eunwoo's sleeve and dragging him with her to a corner of the building

"I know it's weird but I'm so sor-"

"Don't apologize to me and you don't have to explain anything I'm sure you'll tell me the reason whenever you feel like it till then I'll go along with you" he said with a soft smile. Eun was grateful since she was never with a man that was understanding like him. The only person she's ever been with was a jerk to her so she never experienced something like this

Without being able to hold back any longer she let her tears out quietly sobbing as the man in front of her pulled them into a hug and rubbed her back in a comforting manner. The young girl was confused about why her mother was crying but she wiped her tears with her small hands "Don't cry mommy"

From afar Jaehyun watched the interaction of the 'family' as he felt uneasy about the whole situation
