Her Soothing Voice

"Do you believe in ghosts?"

That was Kim Jun Yeon's question on the phone. Ye Rim bit her fingertip, as she always did when she was distressed or uncertain about how to answer something. His sudden call had none of the teasing or friendly tone of the previous ones. Just by the tone of his voice, Ye Rim could tell that the question was quite serious. Instead of answering the truth, she preferred to try to figure out the reason for the call.

"What happened? Let's say it's a pretty weird question."

She was on the terrace of a small mall in the city's 'fashionista' area, sipping coffee in the food court. Eun Ha had come to try to negotiate leasing of her clothing collection with a store located in that mall, and Ye Rim accompanied her.
