Chapter 2.

Bora spends a day at a 5-star hotel and then takes a train back to Seoul. She needed to go back to her old house to get some work done.

Her father's body when she left and when she returned was still the same, nothing changed. Bora's heart ached when she saw that image. She mustered all her courage and took Mr. Kim to bury him in an  deserted place.

- Dad, I'm sorry - Bora after completing the task, she knelt in front of her father's grave, her face bowed.

………….

- You’re probably with mom right now, live happily, don't worry about me - Bora's face was all wet, so she was officially alone in this world, no one to rely on, no one next to her.

…………………….

- I was lucky, a man showed me to a place with a lot of money. I don't understand why, but anyway, I will try to live well with that huge amount of money. I feel regret because when I have so much money, you are no longer with me.

……………………..

- I will go to pay all debts and start from the beginning, I will have a peaceful life, please rest assured.

Bora, after a while of suffering, started to get up, and went south about 2km to the house of the creditor. She paid off her father's 50 million won debt to the creditor. He seemed very surprised to see that she had so much money.

- Very cool Kim Bora, where did you get this money?

- You don't have to care, I have paid off all the debt, now leave my family alone.

Bora finished speaking, without saying goodbye or showing any emotion, she stood up and left that poverty-stricken area.

The next place she went was Bon Voyage restaurant, where she worked to make ends meet. She worked as a kitchen assistant because she had some cooking skills. Because she came from a slum, she was looked down upon by the chef. He always made things difficult for her, but for the sake of money, she was willing to ignore it and continue working.

- Oh Bora, it's great to see you again - Minji was happy to see her work friend.

- Minji, hey – Bora gave Minji a bundle of money.

- What's that….Huh? 5 million won - Minji panicked, this amount of money she worked hard for all month was not even enough.

- It's for you.

- What's up? Where did you get this money?

- You don't need to know, take care, thank you for always being on my side when I had trouble at this restaurant.

After Bora finished speaking, she immediately left without letting Minji ask any more questions.

She walked absentmindedly on the street, her red handbag in her hand. Bora raised her face to the sky, how should she start her new life.

Suddenly remembering the appointment of the blue-haired girl named Sing, Bora wondered whether she should return to Daegu to attend that party. She didn't know what kind of party it was or what the content was. Basically, these were all upper class people, they were not the people in her life. They are very rich and noble, but she is the opposite.

She was just lucky to get a large amount of money.

She had no ties to that girl named Sing, the only thing she knew was the address and party start time on her phone. Sing's staff recorded it for her. If she came, she would definitely feel lost, because she didn't know anyone.

But….that girl named Sing looked very mysterious, she was wearing a round hat, so only the lower half of her face could be seen.

And with the excessive curiosity, Bora left for Daegu with an emptiness in her heart, she didn't know if what she was doing had any meaning, or was truly meaningless.

---

Daegu

Bora caught a taxi and she gave the driver Sing's home address.

- Hmm…girl, are you sure you want to come here?

- Yes, why?

- This is the villa of the Lee family, which is extremely famous in this province. Service vehicles are not allowed to go there.

- That means I can't get there by taxi?

- That's right, what do you know about the Lee family that makes you want to go there?

- It's just that...I was invited to a banquet

- Banquet? So why are you dressed like that?

- So what when wearing that? - Bora looked down at her clothes. When she came here, she went to buy a new outfit, casual pants and a simple white shirt

The driver looked at Bora and shook his head in frustration.

- Well, whatever, but if you want to go to the Lee family's villa, you need to have a personal car, a good one.

- Does that mean I have to rent a car?

- Right.

The taxi driver took Bora to rent a nice looking car. Bora is worried, she knows how to drive because in the process of working at Bon Voyage restaurant there are many times when she has to replace the shipper to deliver food to the restaurant. The boss at Bon Voyage taught her the basics of driving.

The number of times she's been able to drive a car can be counted on one hand. Now she had to drive again.

- Rent this one, Maybach - said the taxi driver, pointing to a very nice and luxurious blue car that looked very expensive.

- But I don't have a driver's license, I just know how to drive basically.

- No problem, 2 million won a day, deposit 80 million won - Maybach car owner said.

Bora hesitated, would it be too much to rent this car for 1 day for 2 million won? But according to the taxi driver, she has to have a this beautiful car to go to a party. After wondering for a while, Bora agreed and gave the money to the Maybach car owner.

- Thank you very much for your advice - Bora gave the driver some money.

- Okay girl, take care, be careful.

- Hm?

- That's not a place to joke around, I know you aren’t super rich like them, you need to be very careful.

Bora nodded, then climbed into the car and slowly drove away. Her heart was filled with anxiety, she already had this anxiety when taking the train to Daegu, now with the taxi driver's warning, she was even more unstable.

It's like a storm is coming...

The sun slowly sets, leaving the stage for darkness along with the stars. Bora's anxiety was still there.

But….it's just a party, right?

After an hour of walking and searching for directions, Bora finally arrived at the right address. In front of her was a splendid villa, something that only exists in movies, where kings and queens live. She took a few minutes to look at that huge and bright house. Even in Seoul, she thought there would be no house as beautiful as that.

She wondered how many people were in this house. The villa has 5 floors, each floor is as long as 3 normal houses combined, in front of the house is a large yard that can park dozens of super cars. As expected, only luxury cars can visit here.

- Miss Kim?

- Yes? – Bora was distracted by a staff member.

- Please come in.

Bora bewilderedly followed the employee's instructions, mixed with surprise because she didn't understand why he knew her name. They probably have a list of guests and photo identification.

Bora stepped inside, the shock came to her one after another, she was surprised from one splendor to another. There are a lot of people here, all of them young ladies and gentlemen, they belong to the super rich world.

- Kim SuA, nice to meet you again - a girl named Sing appeared, happily extending her hand to welcome Bora.

- Hello - Bora smiled back, raised her hand to shake hands with Sing again.

- Are you hungry?

- No, I have a snack in the afternoon.

- Come over here – Sing pulled Bora to a table with wine and fruit cakes.

Sing offered Bora a piece of strawberry, which Bora graciously accepted and ate. She still couldn't get used to the way that girl was staring at her.

She could tell that it was a very passionate look, she didn't know what that girl named Sing meant. Today Sing is wearing a tight white dress, above the knee, with both shoulders exposed, and her fingernails are white. She has a tattoo on the corner of her left shoulder, which Bora saw at the casino. Sing was no longer wearing a hat, leaving her hair completely loose, so Bora got to admire Sing's entire face.

Sing is very beautiful, somehow looks cold and sharp.

If Sing hadn't approached her, she would have thought Sing was an unapproachable person, because the appearance gave it away.

- I really like your car - Sing shook a glass of wine in her hand.

- Oh…. – Bora hummed

- The car is very beautiful, not to mention it's blue, my favorite color.

- Hmmm... actually, that car was rented by me - Bora nodded and admitted, she didn't want to lie about anything.

- I know.

- You know?

- You’re not the type to own such an expensive car.

- ………….. – Bora mused, still not fully understanding what Siyeon meant.

- You’re very different from the people here, I guessed right?

- Different... how different? - Bora asked cautiously.

- The people here, they are not excited to eat lobster like you.

- ……………. – Bora suddenly realized that Sing had seen her since she had dinner at the Marriott Hotel.

- The people here, they don't show any worries when playing at the casino like you.

- ………………….

- If they win a big game, they will continue to play to get more money. Their greed is bottomless, but they don't get up and go home like you.

- ……………..

- Tell me, where are you from?

- Hmm….I'm in Seoul.

- Where is Seoul?

- Well… well….um……

- If the question is too difficult, then, what do you do?

- I'm… just a commis

- Miss Kim, the commis doesn't have enough money to rent the president's room at the Marriott Hotel.

- …………- Bora stiffened her tongue and didn't know how to explain her situation….

- It seems that you feel unfamiliar with this noisy space.

- Yes, it's a bit noisy - Bora said in a low voice.

- Follow me - the girl named Sing stroked Bora's long black hair, then pulled her hand to another place.

On the way, Bora felt confused, she really didn't know what this girl meant, there was definitely something unusual here. All the actions Sing does make her pay attention.

Sing asked questions so quickly that it put her in a difficult position, then blatantly stroked her hair in such a gentle way.

She pulled Bora out from the back door of the villa. What caught Bora's eyes was now a romantic beach, the moon was floating in the sky, leaning down on the sea surface.

Really pretty.

- Wow, this is the first time I've seen that sea - Bora unconsciously gave an exclamation.

- …………. – The girl named Sing turned to look at the person next to her in surprise.

Bora immediately walked quickly to the beach, undressing as she went.

- Hey hey… what are you going to do? – Sing followed and called.

- Go to the beach.

- Huh? why?

- Have you never gone swimming here?

- Well…um…not really – Sing stammered.

- Behind your house there is such a beautiful beach and you don't swim? – Bora carelessly took off all her clothes. When there was no more cloth on her body, she rushed into the water, in extremely excited spirit.

- ………….. – Sing looked motionless at that innocent look.

- Sing, come down here - Bora yelled.

- I... I can't swim.

- It's okay, very shallow here.

Siyeon shyly looked around, there was really no one. Everyone was busy enjoying the lavish party and didn't care about the peaceful scene behind the house.

She has never done that, now she does it….it should be okay….?

But it's not hot right now, it's almost winter, it would be freezing cold to go to the beach now.

Siyeon slowly took off her dress, then prepared to take off the last pieces of fabric. She saw Kim SuA staring at her.

- Turned away.

- Ah... well - Bora turned her face towards the moon.

She heard the sound of water, meaning the girl named Sing had gone down. Bora turned around, smiled brightly and pulled Sing further away from the shore.

When they were on the ground, Sing was the one who guided SuA. And now in the water, SuA will be the one to lead her.

The two struggled happily under the water for a while.

- In the past, I almost drowned, so I'm afraid of water - Sing confided.

- So when you go underwater, you need someone by your side, don't go alone - Bora smiled.

- …………… - Siyeon looked at the other girl without blinking, SuA was very beautiful, and when she smiled she was even more beautiful.

She kept looking at SuA motionlessly like that.

- SuA...who are you?

- It seems like I've already introduced you to my basic information - Bora was amused by Sing's unnecessary question.

- I mean….I can't take my eyes off you.

- SIYEON!!!

Siyeon startled, her mother's voice. She quickly pulled SuA to hide behind a high cliff.

After successfully hiding, Siyeon quietly waited to see if there was any more noise from her mother. She couldn't feel anything, mom must have gone inside the house.

- Siyeon? – Bora wondered.

- Lee Siyeon, is my full name. Sing is just the nickname my parents gave me at home - Siyeon revealed.

- Oh….then I'll call you Siyeon.

- No, call me Sing.

- That's the name only family members can call, isn't it?

- I gave you the privilege.

Bora laughed.

- Then I will also share something with you, my name is not SuA.

- …………. – Siyeon opened her pupils wide, so she was deceived.

- My real name is Kim Bora.

- Why did you hide your real name?

- I don't know, it's just... I don't feel safe if someone here knows my real name.

- Don't worry, the only person who knows your real name will be me.

Bora felt a little reassured by everything the young lady named Lee said, even though she didn't know who Siyeon really was or why Siyeon was approaching her.

- Do you have any questions about me?

- Actually, I have a question.

- What is that?

- What is the purpose of this party?

- It's my birthday.

Bora was surprised, she didn't expect this to be a birthday party. It was so grand compared to what she imagined.

- So….hmm…..what birthday gift do you want?

- Will you accommodate me if I want something?

- I will respond, if within my ability.

- I have a wish.

- What is that?

Siyeon said no more, blankly looking at Kim Bora's face suddenly hidden by the moonlight. She heard her heart pounding like someone was beating it repeatedly. There was a strong urge inside her.

She was no longer cautious, hugged Kim Bora's beautiful face with both hands, and rushed in to kiss Bora.
