“Ga-in ssi! Don’t move!” Kwill mumbled as he struggled to get Ga-in out of the car. As soon as Ga-in got out, he remembered he wasn’t supposed to be seen there. He then put on his sunglasses and a cap before supporting Ga-in into the block.
As he looked towards the building, he was reminded of the security guard. “Aish… how do I pass the guard office?” He mumbled, frowning.
BURP! Ga-in’s jerked a little and her hands covered her mouth which alerted Kwill. “Ga-in ssi… Wait!” Kwill held on to Ga-in tightly before rushing towards the building. Just like expected, the security guard stopped him.
“Wait a minute! Who are you? Wearing sunglasses… You look suspicious… What’s your relationship to Gainnie? I’ve never seen you here before…” He asked in doubt.
Kwill was tongue-tied. What is his relationship with Ga-in? He can’t reveal his true identity so… “Ahjussi…” Ga-in murmured,” He’s Kwonnie’s friend…” She then dragged Kwill pass the gate while waving goodbye to the ahjussi.
He rushed her to her apartment on the third floor. She guided him with directions as to where to head as she was unable to walk him there.
“U…unit 2.” She spoke so softly and vaguely. She had no energy to stand straight, let alone to talk coherently. Ga-in was never good at drinking. As to why she even drank knowing she is alcohol intolerant, it’s because…
Flashback
“Ga-in-ah, why can’t you tell us? Aren’t we your best friends?”
“Unnie…”
“What did Kwill do? Are you two dating?” Jinwoon teased Ga-in further.
“Let’s play Truth or Dare!” Even umma JeA suddenly joined in.
“Be careful… it may work against you…” Seulong warned her which made JeA confused. Miryo, being the smartest of all, knew what he meant. JeA proposed the game to make Ga-in confess her feelings. Similarly, JeA may be in the same situation with Ga-in if Seulong… Miryo felt jealous. She didn’t feel good. The best she could do is to try smiling even though her lips looks straight no matter how hard she tried to maintain her expressions. Again, she bottled her feelings…
“I don’t want to… Unnie…” Ga-in whined.
JeA then stood up and walked towards Kwill who was at the corner serving the other guests.
“Unnie… Unnie. Unnie! Hajima! (Don’t!)” To no avail, JeA did not relent. Just when she was a table away…
“Unnie! Fine!”
…
After ten minutes, the bottle never faced Ga-in or JeA who was oblivious to the others’ plan of sabotaging her along with Ga-in. It’s only when Kwill was a table away from them, the bottle pointed to Ga-in.
“Asa!” It was Seulong’s turn to ask. “Truth or Dare?”
Ga-in calmly said, “Dare. You think you can win me?”
Seulong smiled slyly. “I dare you to tell Kwill the truth.”
“What?! YOU! IM SEULONG!”
“You thought you chose the right choice? Do you?”
“But what truth do I have to tell him?!”
” You like him!”
“No! I never did!” Ga-in desperate to escape from her fate.
Jokwon saw Kwill walking towards their table. He had to stop the rest before Kwill overhears the conversation. No way could he let Kwill have excuses or give him hope to try advance his relationship with Ga-in.
