Ji An lifted her head, meeting Dan Woo’s gaze as she opened her mouth.
“Seeing your face makes me happy. …I heard it was a call from the CEO, so I ran without looking back. Just to see your face.”
“When you’re running, you’re supposed to only look forward.”
“When I went down to the changing room, there was a huge fuss. They asked me what I had done wrong. I was dumbfounded. Can’t I be called for doing something right?”
Dan Woo answered, holding back a laugh.
“Do you make a lot of mistakes normally? I don’t think so.”
“It’s a stigma from the founding ceremony. It’s unfair.”
Ji An, seeing that Dan Woo looked extremely weary, lifted her sullen expression and gave him a quick peck on the lips.
I wish you weren’t sad.
I wish you were happy when you were looking at me.
When Ji An looked at Dan Woo, it was great just to have the tips of her fingers, her gaze, her heart, touching him without any reason ‘why?’.
She wanted to see him every day, and it was even more regrettable when they had to part.
Dan Woo wrapped his arm around her back.
“I look terrible right now, so I think I should go home.”
“Isn’t this home?”
As Dan Woo lay down holding Ji An, their bodies came into closer contact with the floor.
The sound of Dan Woo’s rapidly beating heart reached Ji An’s ears.
As his large hand stroked her head and patted her back, Ji An wished time would stop for a moment.
Although she told him it was okay, she wanted to see Dan Woo so much that she checked her phone several times in her sleep.
“Ji An, how about we just live together? I would like it if you were next to me when I open my eyes and when I close them.”
It would be nice to live together.
Every day, holding you, seeing your smile, listening to your voice.
Getting dyed in your warmth, taking you into me.
Dan Woo wanted to live laughing with Ji An over trivial things, and fighting over petty things.
Today, like days when he hesitated to see her, if he could come home and ultimately see her, life seemed like it could be peaceful.
After he suddenly jumped steps ahead with his words, he thought about his selfishness and the circumstances he couldn’t tell her arose in his mind.
About the surgical scar on his abdomen and his mother in the closed ward, about the existence of J who prevented him from going to her, it was right to tell her these things first.
Could you listen calmly while I tell you these things?
It would probably be tough.
Telling the person you wanted to keep by your side for a long, long time about your past and what would happen in the future was a natural thing.
Dan Woo was inclined to disclose his situation, but on a day when he showed a weak side like today, he didn’t want to say those things.
Ji An, at Dan Woo’s sudden words, was at a loss for words and then asked with a small laugh.
“All of a sudden like this? Do you realize how many steps ahead this is? … I should probably say no, but I can’t.”
Even though Ji An knew Dan Woo’s words meant living together in a different sense than Jeju, she didn’t dislike it.
When she woke up in the morning, if she could see Dan Woo first, and even when she closed her eyes, if she was with him, it felt like she wouldn’t have to fight the feeling of wanting to see him.
Because her desire to see Dan Woo was so desperate, she accepted his words of ‘together’ with a smile.
“I’ve been thinking about it because I miss you. I miss you every day too. Suddenly, I wonder what you’re doing, and I want to be with you.”
“The desperation makes me blurt out, ‘let’s live together.’ Now I understand why people get married.”
Ji An sat up and looked down at Dan Woo. She shouldn’t give in to his words of living together, but her heart was beating out of control.
Ji An raked through Dan Woo’s disheveled hair and poured out her worries on his face, which she hadn’t seen in a few days.
“Why is your face so grim? Have you been eating properly at all? You tell me to eat every day. You say to eat snacks, but you can’t be starving yourself, can you?”
“No, I’ve been eating and working hard to come see you.”
“First of all… get up. Director Woo requested to make you presentable.”
“Tae Yoon did?”
“Yes, several times. He said it’s something he could never do himself.”
Dan Woo hugged Ji An tightly and straightened his body.
The sparring with Sun Woo was getting tougher as time went on, and his body was completely beaten up. He didn’t need to see to know his body must have been a terrible sight, and he wanted to take a shower as soon as he got home.
Ji An’s eyes widened as Dan Woo stood up while holding her.
“What are you doing? Put me down.”
He gave her a crooked smile and puckered his lips.
“If you give me one kiss, I’ll put you down.”
“You’re saying that now?”
“Yes. … Give me. A kiss.”
After Ji An rolled her eyes, she grabbed Dan Woo’s cheeks with both hands and kissed him. His eyes deeply crinkled.
When he was with Ji An, only that moment was precious, and his heart, which had been in agony as if he was dying, disappeared dangerously quickly.
A moment later, Dan Woo put Ji An down with a satisfied face.
