But I really want to know

"Ha, as if you knew what I had to go through." Chin-hwa hissed. "You weren't here to see how I was doing, so you have no idea how much I suffered because of your sudden absence."

"But wouldn't that be better than knowing that I was on the verge of death?" Kang-woo suddenly asked and Chin-hwa's eyes widened.

"What... What did you say?"

Kang-woo shut his mouth right away. He shouldn't have said that. He shouldn't have revealed anything. Now, Chin-hwa would get even more curious.

But... He just couldn't stand it that Chin-hwa was so oblivious when being oblivious was actually for the best.

He sighed and turned his head away.

"It's nothing, I should get going." He lost his mind for a moment and spoke out of turn. Saying this would only make matters worse because Chin-hwa...

"And you expect me to ignore what I just heard?" Chin-hwa asked, causing Kang-woo to shut his eyes.
