Seo-Jun stayed silent after hearing my response.
It filled him with relief, and it wasn't a surprise that I would hate him from the start given my reactions back then. He just didn't know why and wasn't simply buying the excuse of recalling the man who almost raped me in the past having the same vibe as him.
But he didn't want to ask and bring up a bad memory. He didn't want to make a big deal out of it either.
The important thing was that I no longer hate him.
"Then, do you like me?" He asked but I feigned ignorance.
This wasn't him simply asking if I liked my masters, he was asking on a personal note.
'I like you a lot, do you like me too?' It felt like this kind of situation and I couldn't give him an answer. I didn't want to tell him no, since I apparently liked him, and I didn't want to tell him yes to feed his ego and make him feel special among my masters.
So, I acted like he hadn't said anything at all.
