“Ms. Yeonju, do you happen to remember a guest named James?”
How could she not know? In this office, there is no one who doesn’t know his existence anymore. Except for Minwoo and Mina, nobody knew the relationship between Yeonju and him.
Trying to conceal her confusion, Yeonju responded, “Ah… yes.”
“He applied for the night tour tonight, paying the minimum group fee and requesting a private tour.”
A private tour allows individuals or a specific group to enjoy the tour by paying a fixed amount.
“But the problem is… the guest specified you as the guide for the tour.”
“Me?”
“Yes, only Yeonju.”
“…”
Yeonju’s expression gradually stiffened. It seemed clear what Jinyoung’s intention was. Paying for their time alone together was no different from buying it with money.
The man glanced at Yeonju and said, “I don’t know why he specified you, but… with just one person, Yeonju, you should be able to handle it, right?”
Perhaps the amount Jinyoung offered was quite substantial; the man secretly hoped that Yeonju would agree to the request. However, Yeonju’s expression remained dark.
“Can you give me a moment?”
Yeonju said decisively, “I’ll handle that matter myself.”
Yeonju left the office. The cloudy sky hinted at an impending downpour. She went to a quiet place and took out her phone.
Pressing the keys on the phone, she dialed a number. Although it was a number she hadn’t dialed in a while, the memory of it lingered in her mind, and she could press it without hesitation.
When the complete number appeared on the screen, Yeonju pressed the call button. As the second dial tone rang, a voice came through.
[Hello.]Though low, it was a deep voice. Yeonju had never heard this voice in her married life. That indicated how infrequent their communication was as a couple.
“It’s me.”
The voice uttered was calm and gentle, as if two old lovers were conversing.
Even though this was the first time she called with the changed number, he must have figured it out. This number was registered in the guide office, so he would have known that Yeonju was working there from the changed number.
“I saw your application for the night tour.”
Yeonju stated firmly, “The night tour requires a minimum of six people to proceed.”
[I paid for at least six people, so there shouldn’t be a problem.]“I won’t go on a tour with just you. I will cancel the tour, and all the costs will be refunded.”
[There’s no need for a refund.]A firm voice followed.
[What I need is Kang Yeonju, not money.]
Without yielding, Yeonju said, “I won’t go.”
[I’ll wait.]“…”
[Until you come.]As the clear voice echoed in her ears, Yeonju’s gaze wavered for a moment.
Yeonju’s eyes, deep in thought, became intensely filled. She bit her lips tightly and slowly let go.
“Mr. Jinwook.”
[…….]“If you keep doing this… I will run away again.”
The newly settled life after meeting Jinwook again was becoming unsettled. If he took another step deeper, everything would fall apart.
“This time, it’s to a place you’ll never find.”
Jinwook responded without hesitation.
[Then I’ll search for you again like a madman.]“…”
[Wherever you are, no matter how long it takes.]A low yet firm voice followed.
[Whether it’s been a year, ten years, or a lifetime.]“…”
[I will find you.]At the moment when Yeonju’s pupils trembled, a thick voice echoed in her ears.
[Because you’re the only one in my life.]
As soon as Minwoo answered the phone, he left his studio.
He came out in such a hurry that he was still wearing the apron used during work.
He looked around after leaving the building with the studio and soon found Yeonju, the person he had just talked to.
“Yeonju.”
Minwoo quickly ran towards Yeonju. Yeonju’s expression was as dark as the sky full of clouds. Minwoo had hurriedly come out after receiving the call from Yeonju a while ago, saying she was in front of the studio.
“What’s going on up to here?”
Since it was the first time Yeonju had come to the studio alone, Minwoo found the current situation both strange and somewhat pleasing.
Yeonju, with a heavy expression, spoke.
“I’m leaving.”
“What?”
“The place Senior mentioned yesterday. I’m going to Slovenia, where he said he has an acquaintance.”
Minwoo’s pupils widened at Yeonju’s sudden announcement of going to Slovenia without any explanation.
Unlike the bewildered Minwoo, Yeonju’s expression already looked determined, yet vulnerable and desperate.
With an accelerated tone, Yeonju asked, “When can I leave? I want to go as soon as possible.”
“…”
“As soon as tomorrow is fine; it doesn’t matter.”
“Yeonju, calm down for a moment…”
Minwoo tried to console her, but Yeonju seemed not to hear anything at the moment. She appeared as if there was only one thought in her mind: she had to leave.
Wide-eyed, Yeonju asked, “Is it really a place where no one can find me?”
“…”
“If I go there, really… I won’t be able to see him again, right?”
