They had missed the beginning, so the plot was confusing. They had bought popcorn for snacking, but since they had given it all away, there was none left.
Tae Hyuk leaned toward Na Young and asked softly, “But why did you choose a movie?”
He had warned her that he usually falls asleep during movies, yet she persisted with this plan. It seemed like watching a movie was important to her, though he wasn’t keen, given that his friend Cha Hyun was the movie expert.
“I’ll tell you after the movie,” Na Young whispered, effectively telling him to be quiet. Tae Hyuk sighed and focused on the screen, determined not to fall asleep.
Staying awake during the movie was now his mission, a feat he had never achieved before. He focused on every scene, even reading the street signs in the background.
His efforts paid off, and he stayed awake past the midpoint of the movie. Proud, he turned to share this achievement with Na Young, only to be shocked to see her asleep.
She had insisted on watching the movie, even after mocking him for sleeping in cinemas!
Stunned, Tae Hyuk watched her for a moment before quickly supporting her head as it leaned towards the next seat. Gently, he positioned her head on his shoulder, ensuring she remained asleep, then turned back to the screen.
The movie had moved on to an unknown plotline. In a low voice, Tae Hyuk asked the sleeping Na Young, “Honestly, you don’t like movies either, do you?”
Of course, there was no response, and soon, Tae Hyuk also fell asleep.
The two were awakened by a cinema cleaner after the movie ended. Na Young felt utterly embarrassed.
She hadn’t expected to fall asleep herself, forgetting that as a first-year resident short on sleep, she could sleep anywhere.
“The movie wasn’t as interesting as I thought,” Na Young excused.
“Yeah, you’re right,” agreed Professor Choi Tae Hyuk, too agreeably, making Na Young feel even more embarrassed.
“You slept too, Professor,” she said, unwilling to take the blame alone.
“Sure, I
When two people date, personality is an undeniably important aspect.
“So, you like me just because I’m pretty?”
“Hmm. You are pretty.”
When Tae Hyuk readily agreed again, Na Young felt resigned.
“So, there’s nothing good about me other than my looks?”
Na Young turned her head away, not looking at him. This question wasn’t helpful to her. Whether it was true or not, she had already fallen for him. Even if he agreed, she couldn’t stop her feelings. It seemed wiser to bury them forever, at least to protect her pride.
As Na Young was regretting asking the question, Professor Choi Tae Hyuk extended his hand.
“If you hold this hand now…”
Again with the hand. She had just vulnerably exposed her insecurities, and his fixation on her hand felt insincere.
Feeling upset and disappointed, she was about to snap back when Tae Hyuk said, “I will never betray you.”
Na Young slowly turned her head to look at him again. His deep gaze, so different from his playful attitude earlier, stared back at her. But the promise of ‘forever’ felt too distant. She would have believed him foolishly if he hadn’t included that word.
“How can I believe such a thing?”
She thought he might lose affection for her, considering her skepticism even in such a moment.
“I swear on my parents’ names.”
The mention of ‘parents’ evoked many emotions, especially knowing both of his parents had passed away when he was born. It was hard for Na Young to guess whether the concept of parents was meaningless or even more sacred to him.
“Have you ever sworn on your parents’ names before?”
Tae Hyuk nodded.
“When I told my grandfather I was going to medical school.”
He had promised to stop causing trouble and live as a doctor saving lives. And he had kept that promise until now.
Na Young’s eyes flickered.
“So, becoming a doctor and meeting me are equally important to you?”
“No.”
His quick denial crushed Na Young’s hopes, but then he added, “You are much more important.”
At those words, Na Young felt completely disarmed.
