"It's relieved then."

After such retort, Jungkook looked at me quietly.

It was as if he was at least checking if the word "alright" was true.

I endured static glances in the feeling of being examined, and soon felt a little awkward, so I changed my words.

"And you?"

He looked at me as if he was saying 'what do you mean by that?'.

"I thought you'd be sleeping. I heard you stayed up all night....."

I wanted to ask if you are not tired.

I peeped into Jungkook's face.

Jungkook, who didn't sleep a wink all night, didn't get that kind of looks just by looking at his face.

There was no sign of fatigue or emaciation.

But not being obvious on the outside would not necessarily be synonymous with not feeling tired.

"Why were you working?"

I turned around and asked, and the answer came out right away.

"It'll bother the butler if I work in the office."

No, that wasn't the thing I curious about.

The touch was relaxed and soft.

Jungkook opened his mouth.

"Outside."

"..."

"It looks like there's a lot of wind outside."

I realized what the word meant only a moment later after Jungkook had taken his hand.

Jungkook tidied up my hair.

I patted my hair again in a daze.

Was my hair that messed up?

But there was no wind, no, I never went outside...

Thinking so, it suddenly occurred to me that I had just scratched my hair as I climbed the stairs.

'Heok.'

Wa, wait.

And then I came all the way here?

'.......!'

Embarrassment surged in.

I wandered around looking for a place to put my eyes where it was obvious that the pupil earthquake would have occurred even if I didn't
