Today, unlike usual, I felt excited all day.
Though a bit groggy from lack of sleep, I couldn’t feel any fatigue; instead, it felt languid and lazy like a dream.
Yoo Siwoo said he wanted to see me. I planned to run with the chocolate cake he wanted to eat.
After chatting and sharing the cake with Siwoo, playfully teasing each other, I would subtly lay down on Yudajeong’s lap.
I might act cute, but if I exaggerated that I spent a sleepless night at work and my eyes were swollen, the woman who was generous with acknowledgments wouldn’t be able to resist.
So, by laying my head on Yudajeong’s lap and closing my eyes as if sighing, the operation would be a success. And if it weren’t for the person right in front of me, the operation would have succeeded and still continued.
“Hey. Should I get plastic surgery? Doesn’t my nose seem too low?”
Saying this, Isugyeong pressed her flat nose to make a pig’s nose. It was an utterly cute pig.
“Isn’t it a problem with the nose? How about putting a filler in the lips? If they become plump like Jolly Unni, it might be sexy in a South American style. What do you think?”
This time, she stretched her lips forward, and it was so unpleasant, almost like watching someone else’s poop, that it made me uncomfortable.
“Huh? Why aren’t you saying anything? Do guys like innocence? Do they like sexy?”
Innocence and sexy. That echo resonated only within Junghyuk’s inner self.
He hadn’t realized yet. The various and infinite ways of torturing a person.
Junghyuk exhaled a long breath without showing much emotion. And he thought. The pumpkin witch no longer exists.
There was a time when he put Isugyeong on the same level as Jean Dark. It was from the day he broke the skull of James Shuter, the illegitimate son of a U.S. senator, wasn’t it? Probably.
However, the revolutionary, burning woman of that time was no longer there. There was only a woman who, after being criticized by a lumberjack, had sunk her self-esteem to the subterranean layer.
Not a lament or sigh, but listening to irrelevant nonsense as if pretending to listen, every time he hit a limit, Junghyuk thought of the empty signature space on the employment contract that she hadn’t signed yet.
Anyway, it was annoying even if it was Kwon Dojun, and he was quite tired.
Were they meant for each other? Reflecting deeply, Junghyuk sighed because he couldn’t stand it anymore. He couldn’t tolerate himself who was measuring that, either.
“I think it’s better to lose more weight. Men say they don’t like skinny, but there’s something women shouldn’t overlook. The standards of thinness for men and women are completely different.”
“…….”
Usually, spam calls come in well, but why is my phone so quiet today? Around the time when sweat was sticking to my buttocks, Junghyuk twisted his crossed legs to the opposite side.
That was when it happened. The phone that had been quiet suddenly vibrated vigorously.
After finishing the phone report, Director Min, with an anxious gaze, stood in front of the hotel entrance, pacing in front of the waiting vehicle. He had rushed to the hotel without delay upon understanding the details of the unusual incident.
Soon after hanging up, Vice President Cha passed through the large revolving door and appeared outside.
He slowly scanned the surroundings, soon confirming the car’s location and changing his steps. Considering the severity of the situation, his pace seemed surprisingly relaxed.
However, he appeared overall very solemn. His footsteps, expressions, and even his breathing were heavy.
As Vice President Cha boarded the car, the air inside suddenly became chilly. Director Min, sitting in the front passenger seat, turned his body towards the back seat.
“I’ll take you to the police station.”
“No, start from the kindergarten.”
“Kindergarten… Are you serious?”
Director Min responded with a slightly surprised tone. Yudajeong had been arrested on the spot and taken to the police station, but Cha insisted on going to the kindergarten instead.
As the car headed towards the kindergarten, Director Min watched him with a worried look reflected in the rearview mirror. He was relieved to see Cha remain quite calm, considering the severity of the situation.
“What the hell do you want me to do?!”
Hyuna, who was nervously muttering, brought an ice pack to her face. One side of her swollen cheek, which had hardened, still felt icy and hot.
Wait a minute…
Hyuna, who had stopped what she was saying, bit her nails in an instant. Then, she started chewing on them anxiously.
Will it be okay? Will it work out? If everything goes smoothly, Junghyuk won’t have any lingering feelings for the unmarried mother.
Once President Park’s anger subsides, he’ll probably give permission for marriage. Despite the variable of the ‘illegitimate child’ that had come into play, everything seemed to have fallen into place.
They say distance grows in the eyes if it grows in the heart.
From Hyuna’s pressed cheek came a moan like, “Ah…”
