"What do you think? Doesn't sound like it'll hurt."

Cha Eui-jae blankly stared at the hollow smile. In truth, he could tell her right now. Even though his memories were fragmented, he clearly remembered the last moments of his aunt. It would be a bit painful, but they had been like family.

But he had a strange instinct. If he told her everything about his aunt now, Director Ham Seok-jeong...

Cha Eui-jae subtly lifted his head to see her dry face. There wasn't even a trace of the vitality that used to linger there. She almost looked like an intricately crafted wax figure.

'Even if I tell her someday, now's not the time.'

Cha Eui-jae deliberately shrank back and lowered his head.

"If it's alright if it's a little later."

"I'm sorry, but I don't fully remember everything that happened inside. I think I need some time."

Ham Seok-jeong furrowed her brow slightly. A flicker of emotion bloomed on her once empty face. She asked, concerned.

"Are you having trouble with your memory?"

"Yes... a little. Honestly, I don't even know how I got out of the rift."
