Little merry-go-round.

"I don't need you since you are useless anyway." he shouted at the door that just slammed back to it's place.

He sat down for a short while thinking of what to do. He needed to sort out matters with Dan-Bi first before thinking about his revenge. He owed her a lot and right now it seems like she won't give him the chance to pay back. Take five years lost for example, he wanted to fill up that space with new memories of both of them leaving a lovely life but here they are, falling apart.

He knew Dan-bi that she won't easily change her decision once she had decided just as it took her more than five years before she tried to change her mind about having a relationship with him. Now that she had already lived about a day after making her decision. It's really not easy change her mind.

He thought for a while before picking up his phone and he immediately dialed a number."Hello" his melancholic voice sounded when the second party answered the call.

" Hey, Young Master Han you finally have a reason to look for me, tell me is Dan-Bi missing again?." A female dulcet voice rang from the other end of the line.

"She is safe, isn't she at work with you?" He asked anxiously while she chuckled from her side and replied." I know, I was just teasing. As for the reason you called, don't even mention it, I won't help you to persuade her, I don't want to get the cold shoulder treatment too. I am hanging up now." She said and immediately hung up.

"No-Eul... No-Eul,...Tch, that she-devil. She already knew why I called without even listening." Yo-han suddenly looked pitiful as his last resort already turned him down.

He rested his head on his desk to take a quick nap, which is also the first time he would try to sleep when not working. He gnashed his teeth when he discovered that the sleep he couldn't get yesterday night had finally visited at this hour but he couldn't keep his eyes open.

"Wake up sleepy head." A female voice woke him up from his sleep and he struggled to recognize the voice but raise his head to look at who it was with an expectation that miraculously Dan-bi would be standing before him. If so he would hug her tightly and never let go.

It was as if someone splashed ice water on his heart when he saw who it was. "Mom, why are you here?. It's not even closing periods yet." He managed to say and he slowly became fully awake.

"I had to escape from work very early today, you would do the same if you were in my shoes." Min Ju-Eun replied and took a seat on the sofa.

"What happened?" He asked, not that he was curious but because he had to ask. That's Min Ju-Eun's rule. 'Always respond even if you don't know what to say.'

"Hmm, I got to the office today and everyone started staring at me differently, They suddenly started sucking up to me for no reason. Rumour has it that I am your father's mistress and no one wants to offend me now."

"Stop calling that man my father!, I won't accept him after abandoning us all this years, he has a verse network and he can find a needle lost in the streets of the local market, even his Elder brother, my father, found you without stress and you still believe when he said he couldn't find you? That's unbelievable."

"Yo-han..., I hid you away from him. Park Mit-Eum himself didn't find me easily and with Old Master Kim blocking off your father's resources, how is he supposed to find me, it's just so logical."

"I just asked you not to call him my father anymore. I don't care about your excuses and explanations, what I know is that, since the day he accepted another woman, he had already left our lifes for good."

"Yo-han!, no matter what you say, he is still your father. Sooner or later you will get to accept the fact." Her temper almost ran out as she raised her voice. but she sighed to ease herself. She slowly continued with a much peaceful tone. "I know I can't be with anymore but you have a chance to have a father, isn't that all you always wanted? I am sure he would play his role well."

"Mom, I want to have a paternity test."

"You don't need it."

"Why do you think so?"

"Because he, your father, is the only one. I never had a taste of it with another man I swear on my dead parents grave."

"If you want me to believe this why don't you unveil everything you know and what you have found out lately about Park Mit-Eum's death. I am well aware that you know a lot, if not everything." He requested and he stood up from his swivel chair, walked up to the middle of the room and took his seat opposite her.

She exhaled heavily and nodded. She pursed her lips and added a clause. " I need to invite your dad here..."

"Nevermind. I have something important to do." Yo-han interrupted. " I would leave now Mom, Its already time to knock off and I have an important meeting with a guest. " He said and walked out of the office.

The word processing software displays some gibberish which as at the moment had already taken about fifteen pages of the word document. Ms Bae was lost in her thoughts and didn't realize that she had been in a reverie for so long and that her elbow had been pressing the keys down for a long time.

Ever since Na-Gil walked out of Yo-Han's office with a bright smile on his face, she had been mesmerizing by his cheerfulness and started hallucinating about *cough *cough, up till now.

"Ms Bae, we are going out now." Yo-han said as he walked past her desk. "Ms Bae!" He called again and only then did she realized that she had long since being absent. She immediately started typing in pretence and when she looked at the screen, her mouth fell ajar with a display of shock. She immediately reached for the backspace button.

"Ms Bae?, Did you not hear me or you choose to ignore?" Yo-han questioned angrily.

"I am sorry, I did not know you were talking to me." Ms Bae replied shyly.

"I said I have a meeting now." Yo-han said and walked on.

"Sir,... CEO, you don't have anything on your schedule for the rest of today." Ms Bae interjected.

"I just fixed it", he replied and stepped towards the elevator.

Ms Bae immediately replied with an 'Oh' and immediately took her file bag and rushed after him.

Inside Yo-Han's office, Min Ju-Eun sighed helplessly and decided to leave for her house. She had only taken a step when she saw a small doll of a Calvary riding in a small merry-go-round that sat on his table. The weird thing about the merry-go-round is that instead of horses, it had ants and the Calvary sat on a unique species, the Queen.

She walked closer to it and spun the merry-go-round around and it stopped at a red pointer mark.

"So childish" she commented and turned to leave but just then, she heard a sound. She immediately turned back to see the sound coming from the bookshelf by the right side when facing Yo-Han's desk, the bookshelf slowly opened like a sliding door and revealed an inner wall.

The inner wall also opened like that of an elevator and finally revealed the main compartment. What she saw in the compartment surprised her and left her taken aback.
