It's Him
Skip, at dinner…
…
"Hello Jihwan, where are you now? I was in front of your house…" Sehyuk called him while he was driving home.
"Just wait for me there, I was on my way home" he said and they ended the call.
"Who's that?" Soomin, who was sitting beside him, asked.
"My sunbae, he'll have dinner with us tonight…" he said.
"Ouh, can't wait to meet him…" she said in a fake smile.
Once when they were in front of the apartment building, Jihwan then realized about Dahee. He stopped and zoning out, thinking about Dahee.
"Jihwan? You forgot something?" Soomin asked.
"No…let's go" he said and they walked to his house.
"Hyung!" he called and Sehyuk looked at him.
"What kind of owner makes the guest wait outside of the door huh?" he asked and Jihwan chuckled.
Then Sehyuk looked at Soomin. "I don't know if you're bringing a girlfriend?" he said and Jihwan looked at Soomin.
Soomin was a bit blushing and she looked down.
"She's not my girlfriend, she's my friend" he said and Soomin's reaction changed. Jihwan and Sehyuk realized that but Jihwan doesn't care about it.
"Let's go inside, we're here for dinner aren't we?" Jihwan opened the door and saw the house's lights weren't turned on.
"Have a seat" he invited. Sehyuk and Soomin sit down on the couch. Both of them looked around and smiled at each other.
While Jihwan got into Dahee's room and she's not there, his eyes widened to see the window was wide open. He then checked the bathroom and also the kitchen but she really left the house.
"If you come home again, I'm gonna cook you as Bolognese Spaghetti," he mumbled.

"Would both of you wait for me to cook?" Jihwan asked.
"Sure…" Sehyuk said.
"Let me help you" Soomin said but Jihwan refused to.
…
When he walked into the kitchen, surprisingly, there's a pot of Alfredo Fettuccine and roast chicken in the oven.
Those meals are still hot like they were cooked about a few minutes ago. He prepared those on the dining table and invited Sehyuk with Soomin.
"Wow, are you using magic or something? That's so quick! I can't even imagine how you do that…" Sehyuk praised him and can smell the dishes' scents. It's delightful and creamy.
"Are you cooking all of this by yourself?" Soomin asked.
"No…" he said and sat down.
"Then who cooked this? You hired a chef?" she said.
"I didn't hire anyone, just…it was already served in the kitchen…" he said and made her confused.
"Ouh…kinda weird but let's give it a taste! It's rare to have western food for dinner…" she said and tasted it.
"Holy crap, this is good!" Sehyuk said.
Jihwan was also shocked to taste it as he thought maybe Dahee had already cooked it before he went home.
"I know…" he said with a calm face.
"You should give me the recipe!!" Soomin said.
"I would if I had it…" he said and it made her more confused.
"Jihwan, I can't understand…why do you keep saying like it was cooked by someone else?" she said.
"It was cooked by someone else, you can tell by looking at his face…" Sehyuk said at Soomin.
"Really? Who's that?" she asked.
"Just eat it…we'll talk about this later…" he said and the dining table became silent.
…
After dinner, all of them have a snack and drink in the living room.
"So, what's your name, my lady?" Sehyuk asked.
"What a sweet~ I'm Jang Soomin~ call me Soomin" she smiled.
"Can I call you mine instead?" he said and made her blush.
"That's kinda smooth!~ Not bad~" she said.
"Thanks~ women love my sweet words~" he said proudly.
"Then, what's your name?"
"I'm Kwon Sehyuk…call me Sehyuk or chagiya~" he said and made her chuckle.
"Okay~ but I prefer Sehyuk~" she said.
"You should stop using those cute eyes~ it looks like a torchlight, make me blind~" he said.
"That's quite a good pickup line~" she said and sipped the drink.
"Quite good?!? I never get quite good tho, that's a new compliment for me" he said, leaning backward.
"Guys, I'm still here, if you want to act sweet sugary candy, you can go get a room" he said with a poker face.
"We're just kidding, why are you so cold?" Sehyuk asked.
"Nothing, it's just, my canary ran away…" he said.
"Canary?! You got a pet?" Soomin was shocked.
"Kinda…" Jihwan said in a poker face.
"But, I don't see the birdcage in your house? Where do you keep the bird then?" she looked around.
"I gave it a room…" he said.
"Wow, never heard a bird having its own room…" she said and Jihwan just raised his eyebrows.
All of them were talking until Sehyuk wanted to go home as it was already late at night.
"I guess it's time to go home…" Sehyuk said.
"Yeah, I think so…tonight's dinner was so delicious, you need to cook often for us, maybe korean food next time" Soomin chuckled.
"What do you think am I? Your personal chef?" Jihwan said.
All of them were laughing before Jihwan sent them out. After both of them leave, he finally can clean up all the mess and get a shower.
…
He was about to lay on the bed until suddenly heard a noise from the next room.
Carefully, Jihwan brought his thick iron rod and sneaked to the next room.
"Who's trying to break into my house?" his heart whispered.
With the door slowly opened, he saw no one in the doom but the window was opened and he tried to look around if there's someone trying to hurt him.
Suddenly, his feet felt something furry and he looked down to see a small kitten on the floor with injuries at the body.
Jihwan takes the kitten to his room and treats it. But the kitten doesn't look like it's still alive. Then, Jihwan slowly caresses the kitten's face and ears. With his magical touch, the kitten slowly opened its eyes and hissed to him but then, it became calm after seeing his face.
"Hi kitty…how can you be here hmm?" he caresses the body and it plays with Jihwan's hand.
He was so calm until forget that he doesn't like animals. After giving it some food, Jihwan tries to put it outside but it's still following him.
At the end, the kitten ended up on his bed with him. Both of them sleep and it felt so different to have something else with you on the bed.

The next day, Jihwan woke up and saw Dahee in blurred vision, sleeping while hugging him.
He was sleepy and tired to think then hugged her back. But after realizing, he immediately wakes up and falls from the bed.
"Argh!" he whined in pain and looked at her, shocked because she's just been covered by a blanket without any clothes under it.
But after he's whining, Dahee accidentally woke up and looked at Jihwan.
"Why are you screaming?" she asked while rubbing her eyes.
Jihwan can see her top but then rolled her in the blanket.
"Hey!! What are you doing?!! Jihwan!!" she was rolling and ended up being a kimbab, wrapped up by the blanket.
"I have questions for you…" he said, standing beside her.
"What?" Dahee said.
"How did you get into my room?" he asked in a serious tone.
"You're the one who brought me last night!!!" she said in anger.
"Don't talk sh*t with me!! I just brought in a kitten!!" he scolds her and she raises one of her eyebrows. The situation becomes silent and awkward.
"Wait…you're the kitten?" he asked in shock.
"What do you think!?" she was mad.
"How can you become a kitten?! You're a demon!!" he said.
"I can be in any form of creatures!! Even mythological creatures!!" she explained.
"Then, why didn't you turn into your human form once you're in my room!?" he asked.
"I don't know! I'm trying to turn into a human but it feels like my power is stuck!!! I'm trying to tell you but you didn't get anything!!" she scolds.
"What do you think I am?!! A vet?!? I can't understand what a kitten is trying to say!!" he said.
"You're right…but still!! Why did you wrap me in this blanket!??"
"Because you're fully naked and I'm afraid I can't hold myself…" he explained.
"It's not that I was your girlfriend or anything, just let me go!"
"It doesn't matter whether you are a girlfriend or not!! Females are still attractive in male's eyes…" he sighed.
"So…you wanted to say that I'm attractive in your eyes???" her eyes were shining to hear Jihwan's explanation. Happy puppy wagging her tail.
"I…just keep your nonsense!" he blushed in secret. Jihwan was too stunned to speak
Dahee tried to roll down from the bed and almost fell but luckily Jihwan caught her.
"Are you an idiot or something? Still not enough with those injuries from your body?" he said while carrying her in the bridal style. Like he was carrying a massive and fresh kimbab.
"I used to get wounds…" she said in a melancholy voice.
"I didn't ask…" he said and it pissed her off.
"I also don't have any intention to tell you…!!" she was putting on her annoyed face and didn't know why he felt like it was cute.
Jihwan put Dahee on her bed and wanted to walk out but she stopped him.
"Hey! At least unwrap me!!" she said and he just gave her a flying kiss then left the room.
"Jihwan!!!!!" she was yelling his name but Jihwan just giggled in an evil smirk.
…
Dahee heard the main door was locked and it looks like Jihwan already went out for work.
"This bastard! At least let me go!!" she was struggling and almost cramped her whole body in the blanket.
She sighed and tried to roll in the opposite way to open the blanket, luckily she did it or she needed to wait for him to return home.
"I'll make him pay! Just wait…" she said and got a shower also wore something. After that, Dahee looked at herself in the mirror and there's a scar on her neck. A long scar that still gives her questions on how she got it.
If Daehyun didn't delete her memory, maybe she would know something that was meant to be known by her.
"I'm hungry…" she sighed and went to the kitchen. Make something for herself and realized that Jihwan didn't eat anything for breakfast.
"Why do I need to care about him?! Huh!!" she said and ate the cereal aggressively.
Flashback On
Last night, when she was preparing dinner, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"He's home?" she was about to open the door then remembered that he was always coming in instead of knocking.
Then, Dahee looked at the peephole and it's Sehyuk. She widened her eyes and started to panic.
"Why is he here??" she mumbled and heard the doorbell ring.
"I'm done for real! If he knew that I was living with a human, he'd tell oppa…" she bit her finger and then thought about running away for a while.
Then, she turns off all the electronics in the house and jumps off from her room's window, fly and stay at the other place first until Sehyuk returns back home.
…
"How did Jihwan know about Sehyuk hyung?" she asked while walking in the night crowd.
Then suddenly, her arms were grabbed by someone and that person pulled her to a different dimension.
"Hey!! Wha—" she yelled at him and realized where the person brought her.
"Why am I here?" she asked but the person remained silent until there's an explosion in front of her.
Without she realizing, there's already 3 person in front of her (more like 3 demon)
"Hello~ Kim Dahee~"
A voice that she, familiar with, curious about and hates in the first place.
"Hilux…" a name that she said again after 100 years kept in silence.
"You still remember me huh? I felt touched~" he said and grinned at her.
"Why did you bring me here?" she asked in a serious voice.
"I don't know, what do you think? Don't you like it?" he asked in a calm voice.
"I hate it…" she said.
"Don't be so straightforward Dahee~you know that there'll be no fun if you keep that kind of attitude~" he whispered to her.
She was about to burst out but still holding it cause the last time she burst, there's nothing that can stop her until she lost half of her power.
"You don't burst? I'm proud of you~" he said again and sharply glared at her.
"I'll not let you control me again, not ever again…" she said with faith.
"Okay but…remember, half of your power that remains in your body was from me, Dahee…" he pointed.
She was shocked to hear and looked at him, frowned.
"Yes Dahee, you lost all of your power that time and I give you half to toy you around, do you think, you keep your power by yourself? No…you almost died because of the last fight but thanks to me that you are still alive with my power inside" he said.
Dahee was frowned and stunned at her place, remembering back the bitter fight between her and Hilux that actually faded because of spells that Daehyun used on her.
"You lied!" she yelled.
"Do I look like I am?" a smile from his mouth disappeared.
She doesn't know what to say as this thing happened 100 years ago and no one told her about this, even Daehyun or Daejin.Download Novelah App
