Dahee looks at Hilux with curiosity.
"You know something?" she asked.
"I thought you don't want to ask?" he grinned and walked towards her.
"Tell me something that I want to know…" she said and he burst out laughing.
"Me? Tell you? HAHAHAHAHA IMPOSSIBLE!" he yelled and grabbed her neck.
"For thousands of years I've been suffering because of you! For what I need to tell you like we're close? Hmm?" he tightened his grip around her neck and let it go.
"Uhuk! Uhuk!" she's coughing on her knees and looking at him with teary eyes.
"This is trapped isn't it? You're here to kill me right?" she said.
"Finally…you get it darling~ but killing you in such a quiet and calm place like here, wasn't fun right? I've been thinking of doing it in front of Daehyun and letting him do it with his own hands with no choices~" he whispered.
"I don't understand why you do this…you got the power and the position!" she said.
"But I don't have my revenge yet…my family and lover died because of you and everyone that is together with you!!"
Dahee was stunned by what he just said. She thought that Daehyun just erased a bit of her memory but she was wrong as he was hiding something more big and dangerous.
"How? How did your family and lover die?! I want to know!" she said with courage.
"There's no use for me to tell you now, you'll realize it one day and…you'll know the truth…" he then disappeared.
Then, Dahee has been returned to the earth, in the dark and quiet pathway. Her hands were injured and her neck was bruised.
Dahee was returned to Jihwan's apartment and entered her room but due to lack of her energy…she fainted on the floor in the form of a cat.
Flashback Off
"Morning Hwan!" Soomin appears in front of him and he just smiles at her.
"Morning Soomin, you looked happy? Something comes up?" he asked.
"No…I just felt like being reborn today~" she said while sitting beside him.
"Good, have a nice day…" Jihwan walked out and zoning out while walking without destination.
Suddenly, he hit one of the nurses.
"Ouh! I'm sorry doc!" she said.
"N-no! It's okay! I'm the one who hit you! I'm sorry!" he said while helping her.
Then he walked away with a lot of distraction in his head. Something unusual in his mind and he doesn't know where it is.
Jihwan then walked to the garden behind the hospital, a special garden for you to relax your eyes and mind. He sat on the bench and sighed heavily.
"How she can come back in a cat form…" he sighed and smiled when remember back of what happened this morning.
"But she's quite cute…" his heart whispered with a calm smile on his face.
"Wait a minute…am I falling for a woman? That's nonsense…" he mumbled and leaned back.
"But when I realized back, her hands and neck were injured, where was she going last night?" he was curious and couldn't lie that he was quite worried too.
"Maybe I'll just ask her back when I return home…" he said and continued working.
Jihwan was returned home and they had their own routine until Dahee was about to enter her room, he grabbed her hand.
"Yes?" she asked, thinking if Jihwan had something to tell her.
"Where have you been last night? Why did you get those injuries?" he asked.
"Since when do you care about it?" she asked and he slowly let go of his grip from her hands.
She leaves him with questions in his head.
"Why do I need to care about her?" his heart whispered.

One week later…
"Hyung, do you think, Dahee really…" Daejin stops.
"I don't know, Daejin…everything was too unreal and fast…I don't think she'll make a quick decision like that…" Daehyun said.
"I'm gonna search through the ocean again…" Daejin then walked out.
He walked out and came across Sehyuk outside the palace.
"Sehyuk Hyung…" Daejin stopped in front of him.
"I was about to see you, there's something I want to tell…" Sehyuk said.
"What is it?" he asked.
"Follow me…" Sehyuk led Daejin.
Both of them went to Jihwan's apartment and Daejin widened his eyes to see Jihwan and Dahee were together at the couch, watching television.
"I wanted to tell Daehyun about this like 2 weeks ago but he doesn't seem willing to get along with Jihwan after knowing about this…" Sehyuk said.
"What he did to Dahee…" Daejin asked while clenching his fist.
"Nothing much, I don't know what's the deal that both of them got but as long as she was under my monitoring, you don't need to worry…" Sehyuk tapping Daejin's shoulder.
"She's causing you trouble?" he asked.
"Not yet…but I think you and Daehyun hyung need to take a chill when dealing with her, I know that both of you worry…but if you act recklessly, this is just gonna be more dangerous especially when Hilux knows about her location…" Sehyuk explained.
"I know…the main thing now, making her sick with humans and not having any other choices except accepting the Demon's King proposal and marrying him" Daejin sighed.
"Good luck then, you should know that she's quite stubborn to handle…" Sehyuk said.
"Don't worry hyung…" both of them then fly away.
…
"Hey…" Jihwan looked at Dahee.
"Hmm?"
"It's been 3 weeks and I still don't know your name…what should I call you?" he asked.
"Why do you need to know my name? I mean, these 3 weeks were just fine without you knowing about it…" she said in poker face.
"That's not fair for me that you knew my name but I don't know yours…if I need to call you, I can't just always said “Hey!”. It's unmannered…" he said.
"Umm, call me Dahee," she said.
"Dahee? That's your name?" he asked.
"Yeah, Kim Dahee…" she continued and he was zoning out before remembering one thing.
"Your name is quite familiar to my ears," he frowned.
"Well, maybe you accidentally heard it somewhere…I don't know" Dahee eats chips without looking at him.
"Maybe…"
"By the way, don't you have a cellphone?" he asked.
"Cell-cellphone? What's that? Organisms cells?" she asked as it was a new thing for her, she just learned things that humans learn but only know television as a technology.
"No…it's a device that can communicate one person to another…it's like a…a…magic wand, you can call someone, looking for information and more…" he explained.
"Then, can I get food from it?!" she was excited.
"Yeah…can…but you need to use money for that…this is a cellphone" he showed his cellphone.
"Woah~ it's like a mirror! I can see my face but it is quite dark…" she said and looked around it.
"Well, let me unlock first…" Jihwan put in his passcode and let Dahee scroll through his phone, a lot of apps that were new to her.
"What's the function of this hamster? You got pet in your cellphone?!!" Dahee was excited to see it for the first time.
Dahee opens the YouTube and tries to search for something, she sits beside him that doesn't leave a single inch of space between them, very close to his chest.
"This app was so interesting~" Dahee looked at Jihwan and their faces were very close.
"Why is my heart throbbing so hard?" her heart whispered.
"Did she look this pretty? Why does it feel like I'm being hypnotized?" his eyes were glued to her.
Both of them were in their own atmosphere and sank into each other's eyes.
"His eyes were yellow?" Dahee looked in his eyes and was trapped in it.
Their faces were getting closer and the sensation was stronger. Jihwan reached her face and almost connected it but it didn't last long until his phone was ringing.
Dahee was flinching and looking at his phone.
"Y-your phone…" she said and looked away, blushingly.
Jihwan took his phone and went to the kitchen for some privacy.
"What do you want!?" he holds his angry voice.
"Woah, chill Hwan~ am I ruining your dating or what?" Soohyuk said.
"Ye— what do you want!?" Jihwan was about to slide something right from his heart.
"Chill bruh~ I'm thinking of giving you a visit… so, I was outside of your house~" Soohyuk said and Jihwan widened his eyes.
"What?!" Jihwan was shocked and made Dahee also shocked with his sudden voice.
"Why are you so shocked? I'm just gonna give you a visit and also look at your cute little canary~" he said.
"Okay…" Jihwan mumbled and looked at Dahee. She was clueless and still shy with what just happened.
Jihwan went back to the living room and sighed.
"Who are you talking to?" Dahee asked.
"Friend…by the way, can you wait here, my friend was already in front of the door…" he said and she just nodded.
"O-okay…" she bowed her head. Jihwan went to the main door.
"I shouldn't do that!!" her heart whispered. Dahee hit her face with a pillow and was very ashamed of what just happened.
"I should know the place…I can't do this to a human…" she mumbled.
"Eh?! You didn't say you have a guest?" Soohyuk said after seeing Dahee.
"She's not a guest…" Jihwan said.
"Oh…eh?! Not a guest? Then, your girlfriend?!" Soohyuk was shocked with his own words.
"No!" Dahee was denying.
"Then, your wife? You didn't tell me that you'll get married?!" Soohyuk is still guessing and Jihwan just gets along with it.
"Yah!!! I'm not his wife!!" Dahee said and Soohyuk looked at her.
"Then, what are you to him? His slave?" Soohyuk made fun of her and she was bowing her head.
Jihwan cleaned his throat "done talk shit?" he said to Soohyuk and pulled him to the kitchen.
"What are you trying to do huh? Can't you just be a normal guest?" he said to Soohyuk.
"What? I'm just asking, who knows that my guess was right…anyway, why do you care about this kind of matter? Was that girl someone important to you?" he teased Jihwan.
"She's just a roommate! Can't you just mind your own business this time…" he said.
"Okay okay~ I got that, geez…what a man in love~" he mumbled.
"What did you say?"
"N-nothing~" Soohyuk made his innocent face.
Both of them went back to the living room and Jihwan made drinks for them.
"Hey~ sorry about my words just now, I didn't mean it…" Soohyuk said.
"It's okay, I'm not take it seriously~" Dahee was smiling and it kinda attracting Soohyuk.
"So…just a roommate huh? I would already jump on her if she was this cute~" his heart whispered.
"Umm, I'm Park Soohyuk, call Soohyuk~" he greeted.
"Oh, I'm Dahee~ Kim Dahee~" she greeted back with a smile.
"Kim Dahee? Is she…Daehyun's hyung sister that he used to talk about?" his heart whispered.
"Are you…likely a fiend?" a friendly smile from Soohyuk disappeared. Dahee frowned as she couldn't understand what he just asked.
"What is fiend? Is it a friend?" she asked back.
Again, Soohyuk smiled at her and chuckled "no~ I mean, are you likely to be friendly?" he asked.
"Ouh! Yes! I love to make friends but…I'm a bit awkward with humans~" she said and it cleared every question in Soohyuk's mind.
"Haha, don't worry, I'm a very friendly person~ I don't mind getting scolded too~" he said.
"I don't really like when someone raises their voice, it makes everything inside me shake…" she said.
"Kinda weird, what kind of demon can't face a scolding?" his heat whispered again with a new unanswered question.
"You're a soft-spoken person, maybe you're a soft hearted person too~" he said.
"That's no way…what an impossible for a demon like me to be a soft hearted creature…" her heart whispered with a smile at her face.
