Chapter 23

Hyoyoung was just about to get into the van but stopped herself as Aran approached her and asked, "I should be asking you the same question. What are you doing here? And whose van is this?"

Hyoyoung quickly shut the door behind her and replied, "Oh, it belongs to an acquaintance. He offered to drive me home."

"Oh really? Could this guy give me a ride as well? It's on the way to your home! I want to save on cab money."

"Uhm… I'm sorry, but there isn't room for you."

"But it's such a big car. I don't even have to sit, I can just squeeze in. Please?"

"Oh… I'm really sorry, Aran. I… I don't know these people very well, so I feel uncomfortable asking for a favor…"

"Oh really? Well then, I guess it can't be helped. By the way, those guys seemed really young. I mean, I saw them from far away, but still… who are they? What do they do? Y-You aren't involved in anything bad, are you?"
