That natural smile seemed beautiful without any hidden intentions. With an unaffected tone, he clearly defined their relationship. A relationship with no promises.
She felt breathless. His laughter was pounding her heart.
“Just being good to each other is enough for me.”
Wrapped in plausible words, the simple entertainment sounded so dignified. Dajeong shook her head, smiling self-mockingly.
Did it have to be confirmed to this extent? She felt pathetic for throwing such foolish questions.
What did she expect?
Did she really think he would suddenly confess his love and propose?
Despite not believing in Cinderella, she seemed to have let go of her heart as if enchanted.
“By the way, Ms. Yoon Dajeong.”
The man with a charming smile spoke.
“Let’s go see the stars next time. The beach we couldn’t go to last time. This time, I’ll show you the real stars without cheating.”
He talked about the next thing again. The next, with no concrete future, was simply empty. With a hollow heart, the wind blew in.
“To see the stars. Yes. Okay.”
Thinking about the end, Dajeong struggled to lift the trembling corners of her mouth. Her vision became blurry.
“Oh? Hasn’t our oppa come yet? Isn’t he answering the phone?”
One weekend when they visited the house of friendship.
No one was in the house when Dajeong opened the door. Her cheeks, making a face that she didn’t understand English, were slightly reddened, so Jaeho’s gaze lingered for a while.
“He’s not answering the phone. We agreed to meet by 2 o’clock.”
“I went out with Gyeongmi unni earlier. We might be a bit late. Anyway, come in.”
Thirty minutes alone with Dajeong in that house. It was a day when she wanted to seize the ticking sound of the clock that was rolling by. Dajeong had pink rolls on her bangs and, belatedly, looked at herself in the mirror with a facial expression that seemed like she was about to cry.
It was cute, and she didn’t know why she was doing that, but hastily entering the room, taking off the rolls, and coming back out, she looked at her own expression.
Maybe thinking that they should treat the guest who came to their house, the touch of bringing out this and that was busy and clumsy. To avoid staring too much, she had to do her best.
“Uh, have some of this…”
Going back and forth between the kitchen, what she prepared for the guest was a glass of milk and a few chocolates. Jaeho didn’t particularly like sweet things, but without showing it, he peeled open a chocolate and put it in his mouth.
“Sweet things. Do you like them?”
“Well, I just like chocolate. If I eat too much, my brother scolds me, but…”
“I like them too.”
Smiling while handing over a commonplace lie, Jaeho took out chocolates from his bag.
“You eat. I have plenty.”
“Oh…”
In the awkward atmosphere, Dajeong’s gentle breath was heard. The rustling sound of the chocolate wrapper and the sound of sleeves rubbing against each other were vividly remembered. Occasionally, even the sound of passing cars.
“Thank you.”
As if the awkwardness was uncomfortable, Dajeong mentioned that she envied Jeju Island’s math trip. She said she had only been to Jeju once, but she couldn’t remember it well because she was young. She complained that her brother promised to take a lot of pictures, but it didn’t console her at all.
“Be careful and have a good trip. Oppa. Come and see us with our brother after you come back.”
Dajeong couldn’t remember that day she couldn’t recall even if she tried, but Jaeho kept thinking about it.
It was the day he named as their first date.
Dajeong’s fishing skills were terrible.
She threw with all her might, but the line barely landed in front of her or, worse, got caught on a rock. She had snapped dozens of “egi,” which were said to be used to catch octopuses.
The West Sea had so many rocks on the seabed, even though she thought she had thrown the line well, it was like a ghost that was tangled in the rocks when she pulled a little.
After about an hour of struggling, although many things got caught on the rocks, they still couldn’t catch any octopuses. Despite being told that gently shaking up and down would work, they couldn’t figure out the feeling.
After two hours like that, Dajeong began to wonder if there really were octopuses living in the sea.
“Even Jaeho couldn’t catch anything.”
“I was too busy watching you, Yoon Dajeong.”
Eventually, they folded the fishing rods, descended from the rocky shore, and headed to the lodging. Jaeho playfully shook the egi hanging at the end of the fishing rod, making a joke. Smiling, Dajeong turned an empty can she couldn’t put anything into in various directions. Jaeho wrapped his arms around Dajeong’s shoulders and gently kissed her on the cheek.
That’s how they entered the lodging’s yard. Kyungjun was standing there.
“Yoon Dajeong…?”
Kyungjun doubted his eyes.
This… was Jaeho.
When the man stubbornly didn’t let go of Dajeong’s hand, Dajeong whispered something in his ear. The man, who finally let go of her hand after shaking his head, nodded slightly and greeted Kyungjun.
“I’ll be back soon.”
Dajeong pulled Kyungjun toward the lodging.
“Why didn’t you even contact me and came. Lee Kyungjun.”
With a thud, the door closed.
“You, you, you, hey Yoon Dajeong, how can you, what is this now? With Jaeho. No, this is…”
It was surprisingly astonishing. Dajeong fully understood Kyungjun’s commotion. Even seeing it with his own eyes, it might not be believable. She felt the same way for the first few days after seeing Jaeho.
Now that everything was ending, why did Lee Kyungjun happen to come at this timing? The situation was so absurd that she couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
Nevertheless, since it had come to this, she wanted to speak honestly. It wouldn’t be bad to have at least one witness. It would be evidence that all this wasn’t a dream.
With determination, Dajeong slowly spoke.
“Kyungjun, I’ll talk first. Listen to my story, and then ask questions.”
After watching Kyungjun’s face gradually regain its original color from the astonishment, Dajeong calmly spoke.
“First of all, the important thing. We’re breaking up.”
“What?”
“We met by chance. Only you know, don’t tell your sister.”
Kyungjun listened attentively to Dajeong’s story. It was an unbelievable story, but since he had seen it with his own eyes, he had no choice but to believe it. One month ago, when he had brought Yoon Dajeong to this suspicious seaside, he couldn’t blame himself too much.
It was Jaeho. Not any other celebrity, but Jaeho.
The cursed Jaeho whom Yoon Dajeong, who kept babbling about her breath and hope every time, despised. If there was one person in the world that Lee Kyungjun couldn’t defeat, it would be Jaeho.
“Why of all people…”
So, coincidentally, starting a one-month contract relationship with Jaeho was the key. They went to the market, went camping, and just enjoyed it like paradise.
The time when he begged her not to do anything but date was pathetically shattered. Precisely, they shattered in vain. They had to date, of all people, with Jaeho. Kyungjun felt defeated and frustrated.

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
