'Why didn't he wake me up?' Arya wondered when she woke up with her already on the bed inside her room . She looked at her phone to see if he left a message but there's none . Seeing the clock, she quickly moved to ready herself .

She was on her way to the court to attend the trial of her dad .

She arrived just in time . She sat on the chair and looked at her dad who was sitting beside his attorney . He looked so haggard . Dark circles were visible under his eyes indicating he hasn't slept well . He can't even shave that beard and growing mustache of his that irritates her when she was young because it stings whenever he will kiss her on the cheeks .

He seemed to notice that someone was gazing at him intently so he looked around and found her .

Arya smiled lovingly at him, her eyes said the words, "Hang in there dad, everything will be alright now . You can go home soon . "

His dad winked at her and smiled happily in return saying, "Don't worry too much dear . Your dad is strong . "

Arya was tearing and chuckling inside, because she was picturing her dad's favorite expression which was to always show them his strong muscle with his funny arm wrestle pose .

The trial ended good in favor of his dad according to Attorney Lim . "I did not know Mr . Tan had a beautiful daughter . I only got to meet your mom and little sister . " Mr . Lim exclaimed as he stared at her .

After the trial, she invited him for lunch so they can discuss the progress of her dad's case . Mr . Lim was one of the best lawyers in their country and she had heard good feedback about him .

"It's not that I am boasting but trust me on this, your dad will definitely be released after a week and I will make sure that happens . " He said in a confident tone as he smiled intently at her .

Arya returned the smile and said, "Thank you so much Attorney Lim for this help . "

"No worries Arya . It's my job and please do call me Lance and don't be too formal with me will you? Here's my card . You can call me anytime you need help . Also, give me your number so I can update you from time to time regarding your father's case . " Lance said smiling as he handed her his calling card .

Then her phone rang, it was Ryu so she excused herself from Lance for a while .

Ryu was asking where she was and what she was doing . She said her location and told him that she was meeting her dad's attorney to discuss an important matter .

Arya: Why do you ask?

Ryu: Nothing, I'm just checking your schedule to grab some lunch . Anyway, since I'm near your area, I will go pick you up .

Arya: No, let's just meet somewhere else . I am not yet done with my meeting . I will call you back .

Then, she quickly hung up the phone .

"I am sorry about that . " Arya said politely as she went back to her sit .

After a few more talks, Arya already bid her farewell . However Lance insisted to walk her out and that he can drive her off to her place .

"No, I am really good . I actually have to meet my . . " her words was interrupted by a voice from her back .

"Love, what took you so long?" Ryu said as he quickly encircled his arm on Arya's waist .

"Oh hi, I am her boyfriend . I was about to pick her up . " He said simply then s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Arya who looked surprise and taken aback .

"Are you done love?" Ryu smiled at her . Arya just nodded .

"Okay, then let's go . " Ryu continued as he led her to walk to his car .

"Why are you here and so fast?" Arya asked confusedly inside the car . Ryu smiled smugly as he leaned forward to her side to pull her seat belt for her and locked it .

"I told you I was around the area," he said with his expressionless face . His lips were pursed and he was noticeably not in a good mood .

He started the car's engine but did not drive yet . "Why? Is there something wrong?" Arya asked after a minute of just silence inside the car .

"I told you not to remove the ring," Ryu murmured . Arya gasped and hurriedly took it out inside her purse .

"Oh this, I went out to see my dad first so I have to remove it for a while because he will be shocked if he saw this on me . I told you before I haven't told him yet that I have a boyfriend already . I'm sorry I forgot to wear it back after . " Arya explained as she wore the ring .

Ryu did not respond and just started to drive the car .

"Where are we going?" Arya asked but Ryu did not answer .

"Ryu?" Arya called as she looked at him . She was uneasy with Ryu's still expressionless face that was focused on the road .

'Can't he hear me?' she thought internally .

"Where are we going?" she asked once more . This time she spoke much louder . Why didnt he wake me up? Arya wondered when she woke up with her already on the bed inside her room .
