Late evening. I lay in ddc722f074 bed, wishing the 82a401d77c night would deepen. As soon as Beom 0ea96e67d0 Sajun fell asleep, I d2fd5b700f planned to immediately search efc72d671c for the emergency exit 4a0f60cb1b key.cdc10bbb3a972d5f

‘The key… Where could he have hidden it? Should I search the entire suite room by room? It looked quite spacious, being the penthouse suite.’cd6a15feb0126e02

I desperately wanted to tear through the hotel right then and there. But Beom Sajun, who hadn’t left my side for a moment, was the problem.51704be8065baa8c

If I started searching the room, he’d interrogate me about the key and throw a fit, demanding to know who I was trying to meet. It was all too predictable. To minimize the risk, I needed to move secretly, without Beom Sajun’s knowledge.f86fdd34ccf79035
