“Yeo Woon.”
At the sound of Seol Ji Oh’s voice, Yeo Woon was startled and looked at the door. Seol Ji Oh asked with a worried voice.
“Are you okay?”
“Uh. I, my, my stomach! My stomach hurts! That’s why!”
As Yeo Woon made up an excuse, Seol Ji Oh quickly accepted it and moved away.
Yeo Woon made a face as if she was ten years older, then once again covered her head with both hands.
She looked as if she wanted to scream. And she truly did want to.
To like Seol Ji Oh of all people! How could I ever feel Seol Ji Oh as a man?
We have grown up together for so many years! We practically grew up as family!
Yeo Woon couldn’t figure out where she had gone wrong. So she started to deny reality.
Could it be a temporary emotion?
I must have lost my mind for a moment when I was held by Seol Ji Oh yesterday! I’ve been off dating for too long, I was lonely.
That’s why today, when Seol Ji Oh’s lips approached……
As the moment when her lips met with Seol Ji Oh’s came to her mind, Yeo Woon closed her eyes. The electrifying tingling sensation from the kiss still felt vivid to her.
Yeo Woon had to admit. She had enjoyed the moment so much that her mind had turned blank.
Her heart was beating wildly, oblivious to her owner’s feelings.
Oh, what should I do…
Yeo Woon let out a deep sigh.
The idea of herself and Seol Ji Oh was simply laughable.
What would Seol Ji Oh’s reaction be if I confessed my feelings?
Her heart, which had been wildly fluttering, finally began to calm down a little. Yeo Woon realistically faced her relationship with Seol Ji Oh.
From being childhood friends that only one person remembered, to owing a huge debt and making a contractual relationship, despite all this, Seol Ji Oh had helped Yeo Woon from movie casting to signing with the agency….
And here she was, not knowing her place and falling in love with him.
Sarcasm naturally flowed from her. Yeo Woon reached out, turned on the cold water from the sink, and washed her face. As the cold water hit her skin, it felt as though her senses were coming back.
She couldn’t repay the kindness she received in this way. Moreover, they were in the same agency, and the filming of the movie hadn’t even started yet.
Whether she wanted it or not, she would continue to face Seol Ji Oh.
It was right to organize things here so her feelings wouldn’t grow any further. That way, she could stay by Seol Ji Oh’s side, even if it was as a halfforgotten friend.
Yeo Woon looked at her reflection in the mirror. Yeo Woon, who blinked her red eyes, forced herself to smile.

It was quite some time before Yeo Woon came out of the bathroom. Yeo Woon walked into the living room and started packing her things with a very awkward expression. Seol Ji Oh, who was watching her, asked quietly.
“Leaving?”
“Uh…… I remembered that I have an appointment. I need to go.”
Seol Ji Oh watched Yeo Woon, who was busy moving without even looking at him, then asked.
“Did you make up your mind? Why didn’t you dodge earlier?”
The hand that was packing her bag stopped for a moment. Yeo Woon awkwardly smiled after licking her lips for a moment.
“Why… I was surprised! I was totally startled. Even if it’s acting, don’t do that in the future. Understand?”
“……”
Seol Ji Oh didn’t respond. However, Yeo Woon didn’t even have the luxury to notice that.
“I’m going! Rest well.”
In a flash, Yeo Woon left Seol Ji Oh’s house. Seol Ji Oh looked in the direction where Yeo Woon had left with a slightly baffled expression.
When the door closed with a clunk and the house quieted down, Seol Ji Oh leaned back against the chair and let out a low sigh.
Seol Ji Oh closed the script crammed full of letters. Scene analysis had been completed long ago. All the lines were entirely in his head.
Despite this, this nonsensical acting practice was all because of Yeo Woon.
Of course, Yeo Woon would have no idea.
Seo Ga Ram and Yeo Woon were undoubtedly sitting facetoface, but they were both deeply immersed in their own thoughts. They simultaneously let out a deep sigh as if the earth was caving in.
Their gazes unexpectedly met.
“What’s up? Is something wrong?”
“Why are you sighing?”
“Just because.”
Yeo Woon lifted the beer mug in front of her and put it to her mouth.
No matter how much she pondered over the past week, the conclusion was the same. The first unrequited love she’d ever experienced should be stopped before it even began.
So, of course, she had to sigh.
Would it have been different if Seol Ji Oh had any memory of it?
Yeo Woon soon shook her head.
Even so, what would Seol Ji Oh regret about me…
That’s when Seo Ga Ram abruptly opened her mouth.
“Woon, a guy says he wants to take responsibility for me.”
“Huh?”
“He insists he must take responsibility for me.”
“Is he not a weird guy?”
Considering Seo Ga Ram’s record of only meeting bad guys, this guy didn’t seem to be normal either. Seo Ga Ram seemed to agree.
“He’s definitely not normal.”
“You can just ignore him. Report him to the police.”
“Sigh… It’s not that easy.”
