By the time the audiences had their empty stomach filled, the light was slowly dimmed and they began dancing with their partners to the waltz.

"Will you do me the honor of dancing with me?" Sehun stuck his hand out,

"that's very sweet of you, but I don't know how to dance!" Hwa Jin chuckled awkwardly,

"just follow my lead and you'll be fine, trust me." Sehun assured her, waiting for Hwa Jin to take his hand. As they were happily dancing to the Waltz, something inside him snapped. What's happening? Why is my heart beating erratically again? Sehun thought, keeping a smile on his face while guiding Hwa Jin to the Waltz. "Have I told you that you were beautiful?" Sehun suddenly murmur, embarrassing himself when he least expected it.

"You did, twice." Hwa Jin reminded him,

"that's because you really are, I've never seen a woman like you!" Sehun continued to murmur,

"a woman like me? What kind of woman have you seen?" Hwa Jin raised an eyebrow, without any warning, he dip Hwa Jin down, hovering above her.

"I've seen many, mostly were young women around your age who only loves my wealth, not me!" Sehun answered and brought Hwa Jin up to her original position before dancing to the Waltz once more,

"and who said that you can't dance? Look at you now, dancing gracefully like a swan!" Sehun decided to change the topic,

"that's because you're leading me, I'm not really good at dancing!" Hwa Jin rolled her eyes,

"that doesn't seem to be true 12 years ago, you were a better dancer than Hana remember?" Sehun grinned,

"you'd remembered! Our childhood memories!" Hwa Jin stated,

"if there was any time from my past that I could choose to go back to, I would choose to go back when I was 6!" Sehun admitted,

"waeyo?" Hwa Jin asked,

"that age holds many beautiful and the sweetest memories I can remember till today, especially when you aided me, do you still remember them? Our childhood memories?"Sehun stared into her eyes,

"of course I remembered them, I aided you because you fell of a tree, trying to be a macho man at that time for your girlfriend is that it? Too bad, Hana wasn't born at that time yet!" Hwa Jin nodded, giggling after remembering her childhood memories. "At that time, yes I did, but I wasn't trying to act macho for Hana, it was for someone I saw as my girlfriend and I still see her as my girlfriend till today!" Sehun sighed. Why is my heart beating so fast? Why can't I feel the cold ice in my heart any longer? Why do I smile when I'm not supposed to? Has she really lighted up my darkened world? Sehun stared from outside his window opened, feeling the breezy wind hit his face. Dialing a number,

"Kai, call in for Mr Lee tomorrow morning at my office, I need you to be here too, I need you as one of my witness!" Sehun nodded before hanging up. When the grand grandfather clock chimed, it echoed throughout the manor like a resounding gong. Stepping on the cold marbled floor, Sehun heard a sob which got louder into a cry, "Hana, you gave me a shock!" Sehun sighed in relief when he switched on the living room's light, only to see Hana sitting on the sofa with her pyjama on. "Why aren't you in bed yet?" Sehun began to undo his bowtie,

"yeobo, how could do this to me? How could you come home so late at night? How could you not say goodnight to me before I sleep?" Hana wail, stomping her feet.

"I told you to not wait for me didn't I?" Sehun begin striding upstairs,

"but you could at least text me goodnight!" Hana retorted,

"what are you, a kid?" Sehun ridiculed her, stopping in his track to look at Hana which was now at the bottom of the stairs,

"but that's what husband do right? They kiss and say goodnight to their wife before going to bed, but you didn't!" Hana pouted,

"stop it already Hana, I'm tired, I'm going to sleep and you should be in bed by now, it's way past your bedtime!" Sehun rolled his eyes, striding upstairs when Hana ran past by him to block his path,

"say at least goodnight to me first, then I'll let you pass!" Hana demanded,

"um, goodnight?" Sehun exclaimed sarcastically,

"say it in a lovely way yeobo!" Hana pouted,

"hey, I don't have time to entertain you right now, I'm really tired and I've got work to do tomorrow, move aside!" Sehun ordered, glaring at Hana before striding past by Hana and went straight to his room.

"Nappeun namja!" Hana mumbled to herself before she herself went to her bedroom. Throwing his coat across the bed weakly, Sehun laid on the bed, taking a deep breath before touching his chest where his heart was situated. Why can't my heart beat normally? Why can't I feel the cold ice in my heart any longer? Why do I see a light now when I least expected it? Appa, omma, is that you trying to tell me something? What is it? Groaning, Sehun slowly got up to get himself washed up. Placing one hand on the wall, Sehun stood still as the hot water from the shower continued hitting him, gurgling as they flow into the small hole at the corner of the glass door. When he finally was done, he wrapped a towel around his waist and got out, white steams emerged from behind him. He examine his reflection from the mirror before his attention was caught by a small white box, he slowly took it to open it, revealing his wedding ring with Hana. Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea, he chose to close it back and place it back at it's original position. An older man in his mid forties was sitting at a meeting room, enjoying his freshly made coffee.

"Would you like some more coffee sir?" a worker asked with a sweet smile,

"yes please, also, please add two more cubes of sugar thank you!" he passed his cup to the worker for his coffee to be refilled. Bowing to leave, the worker bowed to someone outside when the door was closing before it opened back, revealing Sehun, Kai and Sehun's secretary.

"I'm sorry for being late Mr Lee, I was in a meeting earlier." Sehun bowed in apology with Kai and his secretary,

"don't worry Mr Oh, please have a seat first!" Mr Lee gestured them down, allowing Sehun to seat first before they all did.

"I was informed by Jongin that you wanted me in your office this morning, what seems to be the problem?" Mr lee continued,

"yes of course, I was the one who told him to call you to my office this morning, there's something that I would like to discuss with you!" Sehun took out an ID card from his blazer and passed it to Mr Lee, wearing his glasses, he took a quick look at the ID card, "you should roughly know by now what I want, having Kai and Chanyeol as my witnesses should be enough to solve this matter, am I right Mr Lee? I want this matter done as soon as possible!" Sehun bit his lip and kept tapping his fingers on the table for a few times,

"Mr Oh, don't tell me that..." Mr Lee trailed off, taking his glasses off which Sehun could only smirked at him.
