03 | ALEXITHYMIA: Suspicions

• REVISED •

Jihyo is in her room doing some paperwork when something slips into her mind. It was when she saw Wendy and Y/n talking earlier

"Attorney Son called Y/n.. Mirae"

"Mirae.. Mirae.. that name sounds so familiar"

She lied to Y/n earlier, she did overheard their conversation. But only the part where Wendy bid her goodbyes and called Y/n 'Mirae'. Jihyo goes to google and searches the name and she saw something unexpected

Her jaw dropped, speechless and frozen in her seat out of shock

"H-heart.. hunter?"

Next day …

Jihyo is still left in shock after her discovery last night and because of it, she had a hard time sleeping last night. She's currently eating lunch with Y/n and Mina. Jihyo noticed that Y/n isn't wearing the ring Y/n wears all the time

"Did you lose your ring?" Jihyo asked. Y/n got suspicious by Jihyo's question

"I got it get cleaned" Y/n lied, Jihyo nods

"Where did you get it, by the way? Did you buy it in a department store?" Jihyo asked

"Just mine. My mother gave it to me" Y/n said

Her hands tremble under the table, she sweats rapidly. While Y/n got even more suspicious by Jihyo's body language

"I've always worn it for a long time but how come you just asked about it now?" Y/n asked

"N-nothing. I'm just curious, I liked the design and thought of buying myself one but it's only for you" Jihyo chuckles, Y/n nods

They continue to eat while Mina noticed Jihyo's body language as well

"Are you okay?" Mina asked

"I'm feeling under weather, I guess it's because the temperature today dropped" Jihyo smiled

Mina is sitting beside Jihyo so she saw that Jihyo's hands were shaking

"Are you cold? I have extra gloves in my office-"

"No, I'm fine! Excuse me" Jihyo rushed out of the cafeteria

"What's with her?" Mina mumbles

"Why don't you want to take the case? Are you not confident you will win it?" Y/n asked, Mina rolled her eyes

"I haven't lost a case yet. I just don't like it, so you better drop it too and don't help Jihyo" Mina said, Y/n stood up and left

Meanwhile …

Jihyo hurriedly goes to the restroom, she checks if she's alone and she is. She stares at her reflection in the mirror, her eyes are full of terror. Jihyo turns on the faucet and washes her face

Meanwhile …

Y/n is hiding behind the wall watching Jihyo from the restroom

'So you did hear me and Wendy. Why did you lie, Park Jihyo?' Y/n thought as she carefully look at Jihyo

While Jihyo felt like someone was looking at her, she looked and Y/n immediately hid herself. Then Chaeyoung happens to see Y/n

"Hello, Ms Moon" Chaeyoung greeted

"Were you hiding from someone?" Chaeyoung asked, Y/n fixed her posture

"Who said I'm hiding?" Y/n clears her throat

"But it looks like you are though" Chaeyoung chuckles

"Anyway. You should accompany me with the copyright lawsuit"
