Kang Woo, who had risen from the sofa, had a mischievous look in his eyes.
“Let’s go, us too. To bed.”
“It’s not even 10 yet. Why go to bed so early?”
Worried that Hyun Sook might come out again, Seo Ah spoke softly.
“I’m tired. Maybe it’s the hangover.”
Kang Woo naturally took Seo Ah’s hand. Without making a fuss, she quietly followed him.
Kang Woo was in the shower. Seo Ah, lying on the bed facing the wall, was tense about the sudden cohabitation. She had even boldly told Kang Woo to go sleep in any room since Hyun Sook seemed asleep. He flatly refused, not wanting to take that risk.
The bathroom door opened, and the citrus scent of bath products filled the air. Seo Ah pretended to be asleep, unable to think of a better solution.
“Asleep?”
“…….”
“You fell asleep quickly. Surprising.”
Kang Woo spoke with a laugh in his voice, watching Seo Ah’s tiny ears twitch slightly in the mirror on the dresser.
“Ah. I should have brought the skin [care product].”
Behind the sound of rustling sheets, Seo Ah pointed to the dresser.
“It’s there, at the back. The unopened one.”
“Right. Thanks for telling me.”
Kang Woo’s mischievous smile returned as he thanked her. Seizing the moment, Seo Ah openly admired him.
Hyun Sook quickly sympathized with Seo Ah, sending her a look that begged for support. Seo Ah, not wanting to openly agree, deflected the situation with laughter.
“Kang Woo, when you talk to Seo Ah, you should limit your words to the point where you think it wouldn’t bother or bore her too much.”
Kang Woo laughed it off as if it was ridiculous.
“Still, it’s not excessive. You are naturally less talkative than others, which often leads to misunderstandings. It’s true that men who speak less seem cooler during courtship, right Seo Ah?”
“Yes.”
“But after marriage, it’s different. Even if you can live with a talkative man, a husband who’s tight-lipped can be frustrating for a wife. It just leads to deeper misunderstandings between the couple.”
Hyun Sook, who had been fervently taking Seo Ah’s side, then looked at her gently, as if she had something to ask.
“Mother, do you have something to say?”
“I think this is my second time coming to your house.”
“Oh, I’m sorry, Mother. We should have invited you more often.”
“No, that’s not what I mean. We’ve both been busy. Seo Ah, would it be okay if I stayed here for a few days?”
“Of course, Mother. Why even ask?”
Unbeknownst to Kang Woo, Seo Ah had been informed by her physician about Hyun Sook’s deepening depression and the advice for the family to pay more attention to her. Feeling guilty for not being able to care for her properly, Seo Ah was more than willing to have her stay.
“Please make yourself comfortable. I’m truly happy about it.”
“Really?”
Hyun Sook’s face lit up like a child’s.
“Then I’ll stay for just a few days. But don’t mind me. Continue as you usually do. I’ll be comfortable on my own.”
“Yes.”
“Oh my, it’s already past 9. Seo Ah, which room should I use?”
“Follow me, Mother.”
Seo Ah led Hyun Sook to Kang Woo’s room, which was the largest aside from the master bedroom.
Hyun Sook quickly got ready for bed, and Seo Ah returned to the living room.
Kang Woo, who had risen from the sofa, had a mischievous look in his eyes.
“Let’s go, us too. To bed.”
“It’s not even 10 yet. Why go to bed so early?”
Wary that Hyun Sook might come out again, Seo Ah spoke softly.
“I’m tired. Maybe it’s the hangover.”
Kang Woo naturally took Seo Ah’s hand. Without causing a fuss, she quietly followed him.
Kang Woo was in the shower. Lying on the bed facing the wall, Seo Ah felt tense about the sudden cohabitation. She had even boldly told Kang Woo to go sleep in any room since Hyun Sook seemed asleep. Of course, he flatly refused, not wanting to take that risk.
The bathroom door opened, and the citrus scent of bath products wafted through the air. Seo Ah pretended to be asleep, unable to think of a better solution.
“Asleep?”
“…….”
“You fell asleep quickly. Surprising.”
Kang Woo spoke with a hint of amusement in his voice, watching Seo Ah’s tiny ears twitch slightly in the mirror on the dresser.
“Ah. I should have brought the skin [care product].”
Behind the sound of rustling sheets, Seo Ah pointed to the dresser.
“It’s there, at the back. The unopened one.”
“Right. Thanks for telling me.”
Kang Woo’s mischievous smile returned as he thanked her. Seizing the moment, Seo Ah openly admired him.
At that moment, a white sedan parked opposite. Min Young gracefully stepped out of the back seat and entered the boutique, just moments after Kang Woo had settled in the driver’s seat.
“Manager, how have you been? I’ve come to pick up my dress.”
“Ms. Min Young is here too. Actually, Chairman Cha from CI Soft was also here just a moment ago.”
“Chairman Cha of CI Soft? When?”
“Right there. He’s just leaving. Didn’t you see him?”
Min Young watched Kang Woo drive away from the parking lot, her hand on the glass door. A cheerful smile crossed his profile as he held the steering wheel, seemingly in the middle of a conversation.
Min Young gripped the door handle as if holding onto Kang Woo standing in front of her.
“They say he’s attending the G Coms launch party with his wife. You wouldn’t believe how much effort he put into sourcing a dress for her two months ago. A capable and handsome man like him, it’s just so romantic, isn’t it?”
Without responding, Min Young stared at the spot where Kang Woo had disappeared, then slightly twisted her lips.
“The ‘real’ situation of a couple is always unknown.”
Turning around, Min Young faced the manager, lifting her chin with an air of disdain, but then softened her gaze and smiled gently.
“What kind of dress did Chairman Cha pick?”
“…Ah, a white dress. Completely different from your enchanting black dress, Ms. Min Young. No need to worry.”
“White, huh.”
Min Young, with a peculiar smile, moved towards the rack with only white dresses. Each dress had a name tag, indicating they were already reserved.
“Those over there are for the film festival awards ceremony. The one you’re holding is intended for actress Lee Chae Ah.”
“That’s a nice one. It wasn’t in the brochure you sent me last time.”
Min Young playfully swung the hanger of the dress she had picked out.
“Please change it to this one. Tell Lee Chae Ah to wear something else.”
