As the house explodes, Yong-suk covers his wife's head and hugs her it manages to push his body out, they tumble. Until Ye-jin's eyes open and sees that the house has just been devoured by a fire explosion.
"..huh?!" His eyes glared in fear mixing sadly.
In there are still friends like Julis, Meri, Mika, Mijoo and Leo. Then what about aunt and Ma-roo.
"No.no.this is impossible."
Ye-jin is so angry mixed with sadness, she cries she can't do anything to see what's going on in front of her eyes.
"No.no."
Yong-suk clenches in annoyance, unaware that the reunion in the house is Ying-xi's trap.
"..the woman...!"
"Yong-suk, what about them inside? What about aunt and ma-roo? Julis, Meri, Mika, Mijoo and Leo...?"
He could not bear to see his wife sad mixed with fear because his friends were trapped inside.
Are they still alive ?
"..miss Hong?!" Shouting that familiar voice was none other than Ma-roo who was holding a fainted aunt.
He gasps for a run, then lays the aunt in Ye-jin's lap.
"Don't worry, miss.aunt just fainted." He calms Ye-jin still half-panicked worrying about her.
They are of course safe, aunt's condition remains fine.
"What about the others?" Ask Ye-jin.
"Some of them survived west."
That means there's a chance if his friends are still alive. Ye-jin expects them to be safe too.
"Thank God..."
"Then, Ma-roo immediately called for help." Yong-suk's Order.
"Good." Ma-roo immediately contacted the ambulance and the fire department at his master's order. Then join Yong-suk to save the others.
Yong-suk approaches and asks Ye-jin to stay calm.
"Ye-jin, wait here. I'll save the others."
"Yes, please come back safely."
"I'll be back." Then he kissed his wife and went in looking for survivors.
. .
The fire team with the ambulance arrived, they rushed to rescue the victim and put out the fire.
Seeing their busy lives flitting to and fro, Ye-jin still thinks about how her husband is doing. Time has long passed and it feels like a long wait.
"Ye-jin?!"
Hearing the voices of the three unfamiliar women, Ye-jin looks at him full of relief.
"Write...Micas..Meri."
They run towards Ye-jin then hug her worriedly.
"I don't think you survived." Said Julis who was crying like a child.
"I'm worried about you too, but.thank God." Ye-jin is so relieved they are safe as well and there are no injuries.
"Suddenly the explosion came ruining the dining room." Mika.
"Luckily we'll take shelter under the table immediately."
"So I was thinking how about you, I left you in the kitchen so me and the others were frantically looking for you."
Julis regrets her actions for leaving Ye-jin in the kitchen alone.
"..i'm fine." Reply Ye-jin smiled faintly.
Suddenly they thought, what about Mijoo and Leo?"
"Have they survived too?" Think Ye-jin.
"Yo, are you guys lucky to live?" Sapa Leo's.
"You can ask such a question when your circumstances are worse." Reply Ye-jin coldly.
"I agree, he even sacrificed his back to protect my face from the fire. He's always so reckless." Mijoo Protest.
They're a suitable couple protecting each other. It definitely makes Ye-jin happy.
"But..are you okay?"
They both smiled and said they were fine.
. .
What remains is that Yong-suk's presence hasn't appeared yet, of course the wife is very worried about him. She stood waiting for her husband's return.
"Did he survive..?"
Looking around, some people suffered minor injuries and according to the information he got only two people who were the victims.
"Who did this?" Mumbled sad.
"Saori..?" Call out the voice of the woman beside him.
Ye-jin looks her face to the side. "...sir Melisa?"
"It turns out it was you, Saori.."
For Ye-jin, it was Melisa's mother who was very noble-hearted and wanted to help relieve Ye-jin's suffering. But it had already passed, he currently looked to be standing firm and all was well.
Ye-jin steps closer, then hugs her.
"I'm sorry..."
He also regretted it, because he refused the help of Melisa's mother.
"No, I'm still grateful that my missing student was able to meet you."
"Does that mean she invited me through Mika and Meri?"
"Yes. Right now you're really changing like a different person."
Ye-jin smiles at him, "there are a lot of things that make me change like this."
"Even if you change, you still remember me. I barely knew you, so I'm sorry."
"It's okay..."
The others notice that Melisa's mom hugs Ye-jin, they are made to be moved and relieved.
"Miss Hong has been working hard all this time, hasn't she?" guess Mika.
"Nn. He's been working hard." Answer Julis and Meri simultaneously.
Mijoo also agreed, "I also deeply regret my actions towards her, so.for now I will repay the kindness wholeheartedly and will not let her fall."
"I am too."
"in that case, we both help Miss Hong."
"Yes.
The four women looked spirited, any circumstance engulfing Ye-jin. They are ready to help him and will not let go of Ye-jin's grasp that has changed their lives.
However, it's clear Yong-suk hasn't come back to make Ye-jin pacing. Until that unfamiliar step came to him.
"..sorry, am I late?" It's Yong-suk.
Ye-jin cries in relief staring at her husband finally being able to return safely. Even though his forehead was slightly injured, it was only a light wound.
"..not at all."
She approached, then hugged her husband.
"Thank God.thank goodness..."
Yong-suk's two hands tightly hugged his wife by rubbing her long unraveled hair.
"If only he had been hurt because of my failure again. I can't forgive that cunning fox."
They hugged for quite a long time under the starry night sky.
