Yuin didn’t bother explaining her family’s lean genetics. She just lightly pouted and crunched on her salad.
Despite her unusual menu choice, the Korean feast turned out to be delicious.
Gyeon seemed pleased to see Yuin eating more than expected, forgetting all about tteokbokki.
After a hearty meal, Gyeon chose a longer route to Yuin’s house.
“Am I the kind of man you’ve always dreamed of?” Gyeon asked, playing light, lively pop music in his luxury sedan, a stark contrast to his usual appearance.
“Your subconscious ideal type,” he added.
Yuin, who had been quietly listening to the lyrics, cracked a window open, enjoying the fresh air streaming in. She leaned on the window, feeling relaxed and content with the good food, cool breeze, and upbeat music.
Gyeon chuckled beside her.
“Why are you laughing?”
“You seem happy,” he observed, his handsome features softened by a warm smile. His gaze briefly met Yuin’s, causing her cheeks to flush with a pleased smile.
“Yeah, I am.”
Yuin realized how needless her previous fears and avoidance had been. The intimidating Ilrang Tower, the sudden presence of someone unexpected, and the unanticipated gifts weren’t as daunting as she had thought.
Admitting she was happy wasn’t as hard as she had expected.
She heard a quiet murmur of agreement but chose to ignore it, burying her face deeper into her arms on the window sill.
The moist night air, the gently swaying hair of Gyeon in the breeze, and the shining lock on the bracelet all felt like they would leave a lasting impression.
The next morning, Yuin stopped by a phone carrier near her home to activate the new phone Gyeon had given her, then headed to school on the subway.
As she checked her accumulated messages, she found missed calls and texts from Ji Han, as well as a few messages from Gyeon.
The messages from last night, forgotten in light of her broken phone, and a brief text from that morning, waiting for her reply, brought a spontaneous smile to her face.
Hesitating for a moment, Yuin’s thumb crafted a brief message to Gyeon and sent it:
As she traveled through the dim underground tunnel, Yuin felt a warm glow of sunlight filtering through the train’s windows, causing her to fidget in her seat.
There was no response from Gyeon, who seemed busy this morning, so Yuin left a quick message for Ji Han before disembarking at her platform.
Amidst the crowd ascending the stairs, a call from Gyeon arrived.
– Yuin.
His voice, languid and pleasing, tickled her eardrums. Yuin silently smiled and replied with a soft “Yes.”
– You switched to the new device?
“Yes, I just activated it and am heading to school now.”
– And the bracelet?
“The bracelet? It’s still on my wrist, just like you put it yesterday.”
Yuin glanced down at the tinkling lock, pondering that Gyeon must have been curious whether she kept his gift with her all night.
There’s a childish side to him, she thought.
– Don’t think about anything else, just make sure to wear it.
As if she had any other thoughts about the bracelet. She had no intention of taking it off. Either Gyeon had a good eye for such things, or their tastes were similar, but she really liked the bracelet.
The silver chain, now her only accessory, dangled from her wrist as she responded with an unusually elongated “Yes.”
“Must be busy this morning.”
– I have a moment to talk. But, I won’t be able to pick you up for a while.
Yuin’s spirits, which had been buoyantly swaying, dimmed at the thought of not seeing him for some time. Her pace slowed amidst the crowd.
Trying to sound nonchalant, Yuin steadied her voice, “Oh, that’s okay. Focus on your work if you’re busy.”
Though he might have noticed the lie if he were there in person, Gyeon didn’t let on but seemed disappointed. He remained silent.
Yuin wasn’t any different, really. Her eyelids drooped, and her bag suddenly felt heavier.
Breaking the silence, Gyeon spoke up.
– I’ll try to see you for at least 5 minutes tonight. Keep your phone close, okay?
Yuin swallowed her usual response and murmured not to overdo it, to which Gyeon chuckled briefly.
After that short call on her way to school, her phone remained quiet until the afternoon classes ended.
She was staring at her too-quiet new phone when she heard someone call her name.
“Yuin.”
Lifting her head, she saw Ji Han leaning against the double doors.
His appearance, even more haggard overnight, startled Yuin.
“Ji Han? Why are you here like this? You look terrible.”
“Let’s talk.”
Ji Han abruptly grabbed her right hand, the one adorned with the bracelet.
His hand, always warm, felt unusually hot today.
