“Actually, I have a little acrophobia. But I’m fine.”
“Oh, I see.”
……That’s not the point!
Isn’t it me who should judge whether it’s okay or not?!
“You said you have a tenyear accidentfree record, is that reliable information?”
“I do have a tenyear accidentfree record, but that includes seven years of not driving at all.”
No sooner had Hye Won finished speaking, Tae Beom raised his hand and grabbed the passengerside handle.
“Hey, hey, hey, if you’re going to make a left turn, shouldn’t you be in the first lane now?”
Tae Beom, who had been looking at the navigation, interjected. His hands tightly gripped the handle, and his feet jerked as if pressing both the accelerator and brake.
“Can’t you even see the navigation correctly? The signal isn’t now. Not now. Not now!”
Ah! Hye Won flinched as Tae Beom suddenly yelled.
She was frazzled trying to manage a moving building, and the interference from the side made it even worse.
“I can’t do two things at once. I’m sorry, Director.”
It was a signal to stay quiet if he had delegated the task to her.
“Oh, I see.”
He decided to quietly back down. After all, life was precious.
Tae Beom, who had backed off a step, sat up again. The halfreclined seat had returned to its original state.
Hye Won began to calm down after driving for about ten more minutes. Driving was more manageable than she thought.
Just by moving, she could witness the miracle of the surrounding vehicles parting to the left and right. No one dared to approach the vicinity of the moving building.
As Hye Won stabilized, Tae Beom relaxed and picked up his mobile phone.
“Kim Yang, it’s me.”
Oh, Kim Yang again.
Hye Won’s ears perked up.
“While I’m choosing clothes, I thought I might pick out a few outfits for you as well. Shouldn’t I take care of at least that much?”
Oh, is he buying clothes for Kim Yang now?
“That’s fine, just send me your measurements.”
The cold call ended abruptly.
The agenda of the special gravel. Buying clothes for Kim Yang.
Repeating the trivial agenda, Hye Won stopped at a signal.
While she was blankly staring straight ahead, Tae Beom started a conversation.
“How many years have you been in the company?”
“I’ve been here for five years.”
“You’re a chick.”
A chick? Have you ever seen a chick so worldly and pessimistic…?
Hye Won swallowed her words and laughed. She had been laughing so much since the special gravel appeared that the corners of her mouth were on the verge of cramping.
“But if you’ve survived this long in the company, you must be quite competent.”
Ah, I see. I don’t think I was until the day before yesterday.
“Your work life must not have been easy.”
It seems to have started yesterday.
“Fortunately, I had superiors with leadership and juniors with passion, so I was able to work relatively stable in the company.”
Hye Won gave a canned reply, and Tae Beom chuckled. He seemed to find it amusing.
Especially the phrase ‘superiors with leadership’ upset him. It must be referring to the vice president.
“You’ll find a lot of interesting things working with me.”
As Tae Beom spoke, turning his gaze to the car window, Hye Won seized the opportunity to drop the corners of her mouth.
They were both terribly upset with each other.
That’s when it happened.
“Aaaaaaaah!”
Hye Won, who had been driving quietly, suddenly slammed on the brakes. It was because of a motorcycle that was blatantly violating the signal and just passing by.
Tae Beom’s body lurched forward, slowly catching Hye Won’s eye. Hye Won reached out her arm, placing her hand on Tae Beom’s upper body.
Tae Beom, who had been suddenly pushed forward and then toppled backwards, looked down at Hye Won’s hand placed on his chest.
“Executive Director! Are you okay?”
The motorcycle disappeared with a loud noise. Hye Won’s hand was pressing so forcefully against his chest, it felt as if her fingertips might puncture his clothing.
Overwhelmed by anger, Hye Won rolled down the car window and shouted loudly outside.
“Driver! Drive properly! Where are you looking while driving! Can’t you see the signal?! Do it properlyyy!”
The motorcycle that had been driving recklessly was long gone. Only Hye Won’s voice echoed.
Close the window…
“Damn! Damn, I was so surprised! I almost hit someone! Aaaaa! Please drive carefully. Please, a little!”
Stop it because it’s embarrassing…
Tae Beom looked down at her fingertips and turned his head to look at Hye Won. She seemed to have lost her nerve due to the dizziness of almost hitting someone.
It was indeed dizzying. If Hye Won hadn’t reacted quickly and hit the brakes, a horrific scene might have unfolded.
Hye Won, taking a deep breath, looked again at Tae Beom. As she concentrated her gaze, Tae Beom flinched.
“Executive Director, I apologize. Are you okay?”
Her fingertips felt his sturdy chest rise and fall.
“I startled you a lot. I apologize. I braked too hard.”
His heartbeat was loud.
I didn’t know, but I… like a strong heart…
“Executive Director, your heart is beating too hard! Are you really okay?”
Don’t fumble.
“Your heart is about to burst out!”
Don’t fumble! Because you’re fumbling!
Feeling as though he had been caught out when he shouldn’t have been, Tae Beom held Hye Won’s wrist, which was still on his chest. As she said, if he opened his mouth, his heart would feel like it was leaping out.
Tae Beom let out a deep breath again.
He felt a sensation as if thunder and lightning were striking throughout his body. Tae Beom let go of Hye Won’s wrist and slowly pulled the seatbelt.
Just like a shaking Chihuahua
Now he could see her features, and he could smell her faint scent.
“Were you very scared? Shall we go to the hospital?”
It was strange.
“Get off.”
She was a strange woman.
“I will drive.”
