Saturday, late afternoon.
After a threehour long uncomfortable meal, they finally said their goodbyes in the underground parking lot.
“Thank you for today. I was about to get off because it’s getting late.”
As GuMin’s polite farewell made Dohyuk’s eyebrows twitch, he quickly returned with a businesslike smile.
“Of course, I should treat you to a meal. But still, you’re my senior.”
Again?
Ah, I’m tired!
Jaeyeon, who accumulated stress, wanted to go home and rest as soon as possible.
Throughout the meal, there was an underlying tension between Dohyuk and GuMin.
Jaeyeon, in her own way, was also concerned about Dohyuk.

Although she tried to brush off his provocations with a defiant heart, seeing his stern face the whole time made her uneasy.
It was like the calm before a typhoon.
“Hmph! The team leader was the one who started it. He shouldn’t have messed with people if he wasn’t going to uphold the contract properly. Ah, I don’t know. Since he told me to leave, he should take responsibility for his words.”
That’s how Jaeyeon comforted herself with an anxious heart.
“Ah, I have to see the team leader’s face even when I get home.”
Today, Jaeyeon was particularly melancholic about that fact.
Amidst all this, there was one person with a happy expression.
It was Yura, who looked at Dohyuk with sparkling eyes.
“Team Leader Cha, thank you so much! And it’s not just because she’s my friend, Jaeyeon is really a good person. Please take good care of her in the future.”
“Taking care of her is out of the question. It’s already too late!”

Jaeyeon looked at Yura, who had played a prominent role in today’s disaster, with a stern gaze.
Whether she said something or not, Yura seemed to have a lot to say.
“Team Leader Cha, what are you going to do now?”
“I have some work left at the company, so I have to go.”
“Oh, it’s the weekend, and you’re going to the office again? You must be tired.”
“It’s okay.”
She worries too much. She’s going to do what she likes the most.
Jaeyeon silently rolled her eyes.
“Jaeyeon, are you going straight home?”
GuMin asked.

“Ah, yeah. That’s right.”
“I’ll give you a ride. Where is your place?”
“Ah, my place is…!”
Jaeyeon’s mind went blank when asked about her home.
GuMin was referring to the rooftop room at the end of Goyang City where she used to live.
Since Yura was staring at her intently, she couldn’t give a wrong answer.
It takes about an hour by car from Gwanghwamun to her current home near Yoido.
But from Jaeyeon’s original home to Dohyuk’s place, it takes more than one and a half hours by public transportation.
Considering the waiting time for buses and transfers, it would take more than two hours, especially on weekends.
In short, what should have taken 20 minutes could turn into a crisis situation where she would spend over three hours on the road.

Already exhausted, the thought of going around in circles made Jaeyeon feel nauseous.
“It won’t work. I should just say that we’ll go separately.”
Just as Jaeyeon was about to speak, Yura grabbed her arm and said.
“GuMin, I’m sorry, but I have a favor to ask. My younger brother took my car without permission because he’s going to meet his girlfriend. If you drop me off at my house, you only need to go a little further.”
Jaeyeon was pulled into the back seat of GuMin’s white SUV like a prisoner being escorted by a detective, without any chance to resist.
GuMin also slightly lowered his head towards Dohyuk and sat in the driver’s seat.
“Why are you acting like this today, Choi Yura?”
Today felt incredibly long for Jaeyeon.
Now she had to go to her original home without any chance to object.
In a state of panic, Jaeyeon hurriedly looked at Dohyuk through the window.

She had a hunch that he was thinking the same thing as her, from his trembling pupils.
In that moment, a ray of hope shone upon Jaeyeon.
There was still one way for her to escape.
Jaeyeon hastily rolled down the backseat window and deliberately spoke loudly for Dohyuk to hear.
“Oh no, what should we do? I completely forgot that Team Leader Cha has some unfinished work to take care of.”
Jaeyeon gave Dohyuk a look that said, “Please understand my state of mind,” and briskly got out of the car.
GuMin, who followed suit, asked with a displeased expression on his face.
“Jaeyeon, is it something that absolutely has to be done today?”
“Uh, there are some improvements to be made on the project report from last time.”
“Then I’ll go with you.”

“No! It’s not something you can help with. Plus, Yura is waiting. I’ll be fine, so go ahead.”
Please.
Leaving a disappointed GuMin behind, Jaeyeon smiled brightly at Dohyuk.
“Team Leader, let’s go together. I’ll help too.”
And then, as if coming to rescue a princess in distress, Dohyuk approached Jaeyeon.
Like a black knight appearing in a crisis.
But guess what?
Dohyuk, who came closer to Jaeyeon’s side, opened the backseat door of GuMin’s car and gently pushed her back with a courteous gesture.
