"I couldn't help it!" He was still laughing. "You looked so panicked!"
"I WAS panicked!"
"I could see that! You practically threw yourself into that cab!"
"Because YOU were about to pull up!"
"So you paid a cab driver to take you three blocks?"
"Four blocks! And yes!"
They both dissolved into laughter again.
Joonwoo shook his head. Still grinning. "The effort you put into hiding your wealth. It's impressive."
"I have to! Everyone thinks I'm a normal makeup artist!"
"You are a normal makeup artist. You just happen to have a rich father."
"Same thing!"
"It's really not."
He put the car in drive. Pulled into traffic.
"So," he said casually. "The boy. Haejin."
Soorin groaned. "Appa—"
"I saw how he looked at you."
"We're just—"
"And how you looked at him."
"—it's complicated."
"It always is." He glanced at her. "But he seems genuine. Respectful. Made sure you got a cab safely."
"You were watching that long?"
"I got here twenty minutes ago."
"Appa!"
