Hajun parked his car in the underground parking lot of Happy Officetel and headed towards the emergency exit. On his way to the convenience store, he stepped out of the shared entrance and paused, stopping his steps. Then, with a gaze filled with suspicion, he saw Inyoung crouched in front of the flower bed. It was Jiyoon, wearing a hat, tilting her head. Yellow-tinted ginkgo leaves were scattered around her.
Hajun’s forehead wrinkled with unconscious doubt. He knew that due to the trauma of an accident, Jiyoon only visited the lawyer’s office, her home, and the nearby market. However, encountering her in front of Happy Officetel was unexpected.
Even though he had left the office vacant for a few days, it was not easy to be convinced, even if she had official business.
Hajun stopped in front of her, but Jiyoon didn’t sense his presence. He lowered himself, grabbed the brim of Jiyoon’s hat, and lifted it. Only then did he notice the earphones plugged into her ears.
Despite Hajun’s confusion, Jiyoon quickly sat up straight, exclaiming, “Attorney!”
“How did you get here?”
“I took the subway. Oh, and because of this.”
What Jiyoon handed over was a list of evidence related to the Woojeong-hyun case.
Hajun had planned to leave the office for a few days, so the files Jiyoon brought weren’t urgent.
He tried to understand Jiyoon once more, but only came to the conclusion that he didn’t understand.
“Okay. I’ll look at it later.”
Taking the documents, Hajun stood up straight. While looking at Jiyoon, who stood up as well, various questions came to his mind.
“Have you eaten?”
“…”
“Jiyoon.”
“I haven’t eaten yet.”
In the end, Hajun asked the safest question while looking around.
‘Then maybe it’s right to feed her and send her off?’
But when he didn’t see any nearby restaurants, he looked back at Jiyoon.
“I’ll be waiting. I’ll bring the car.”
“No, I can take the subway.”
If she could take the subway, did her symptoms improve a lot? If so, that was fortunate.
Hajun internally questioned and answered, then opened his mouth again, facing Jiyoon.
“Eat before you leave. I’ll feed you and take you home.”
“No.”
“I haven’t eaten yet, so…”
Instead of an answer, Jiyoon nodded her head with an awkward expression. Then, belatedly, she exhaled while looking at Hajun’s back.
She was worried that he might get angry for coming all the way here, but she was relieved that it went well.
“Wow, this is the first time I’ve ridden a foreign car. How much is this car?”
“It’s ridiculously expensive.”
She continued to exclaim with admiration until she got off the white sedan.
Lounge of Cheonggang Hotel.
Considering Jiyoon’s situation, Hajun secured a private room and finished ordering the meal. In the meantime, Jiyoon enjoyed the city view from the window, repeatedly saying, “I’m here for the first time.”
Soon, a fresh garnish-plated steak was placed on the table.
“Sit.”
“Yes.”
Jiyoon, who had thought she would at best go to a fast-food restaurant or a barbecue place, felt awkward being in the hotel lounge. Furthermore, being alone with Hajun in a private room made her feel strange.
Then, seeing Hajun in a suit, her casual appearance felt even more out of place.
Wearing a suit, Hajun’s appearance sharply contrasted with Jiyoon’s, making her feel uneasy.
Worried that people in the hotel lobby might look at them strangely, Jiyoon, who secretly took one more tranquilizer, began to feel drowsy as the medication took effect.
“Hajun is a really bad person.”
“What are you trying to say again?”
Regardless of the reason, Hajun’s intention was to treat Jiyoon to something delicious. However, upon hearing the phrase “bad person,” he felt awkward.
Not knowing where it went wrong, he looked at Jiyoon holding a knife and fork.
“Don’t tell me you want me to cut it? Just eat. I can’t even do that much.”
“Look at me. Torn jeans, this jacket, and hat. Do you know how strange people looked at us in the lobby earlier?”
Hajun glanced at Jiyoon’s attire. From his perspective, her outfit didn’t seem that bad.
Perhaps it only looked that way to him because he saw it every day. Jiyoon wandered around the lobby, but he paid little attention, more focused on bringing her to an empty room.
“That I would be taken in by a lawyer like that…”
Her words were slower than before.
Jiyoon, who had her hand cut off while holding the fork and knife, exerted force. However, her hand, which had held the utensils, suddenly lost strength, flowing down like a collapsing arm.
Then her head dropped.
“Jiyoon! What’s wrong with you?”
“I took some… a lot of medication.”
Hajun’s voice, embracing the collapsing Jiyoon, grew louder.
“Jiyoon, snap out of it.”
Hajun loudly called for assistance.
Until the ambulance arrived and even after arriving at the hospital, Hajun did many things in a daze.
Even when he finally regained his composure, watching Jiyoon lying as if asleep, he was barely conscious.
At that moment, the doctor approached and, looking at the blood test results, opened his mouth.
