Side Story Chapter 76: There is No Light Here (1)
"I’m off to work. I’ll be home past midnight again tonight, so don’t wait around for me and go to bed," said Cha Yeon-Joo as she slammed the front door shut and left.
Han Seol-Ah stared at the front door worryingly and said, "She’s going to work without eating breakfast again… is she that busy at the guild lately?"
Yeon-Joo had been coming home late far past midnight and going to work early for the past five days. She was not sleeping in the large bedroom with Kang-Woo but taking short naps in her private bedroom. Seeing how on-edge she was, she also seemed considerably stressed out.
Oh Kang-Woo smiled awkwardly and scratched his head. "Mm. Who knows?"
"I think it’s because of the complicated matter she has been dealing with at the guild."
Seol-Ah thought Yeon-Joo’s sudden change in behavior stemmed from problems at her guild but Kang-Woo knew exactly what the problem was.
’Did I go too far?’
Kang-Woo found himself inadvertently teasing Yeon-Joo far more than he usually did. Getting hurt by that, Yeon-Joo had not even been looking Kang-Woo in the eyes.
’I should set aside some private time with Yeon-Joo.’
