“Director, why are you sitting there?”
“Why. Is there some law saying I can’t sit here?”
His voice sounded somewhat gruff.
“It’s not that, but… wouldn’t it be more comfortable to work from the spacious backseat?”
“I like it here.”
Saying that, Jae Heon briskly closed the door.
‘Why is he acting like this? He seemed to be in a good mood just this morning.’
Moreover, he had never sat in the passenger seat before.
Why did he suddenly become uncomfortable?
Did I make some mistake in those few seconds?
But there was no time to ponder. Being late would be a disaster.
Ra Jin closed the backseat door and headed to the driver’s seat.
Well, where Jae Heon sits is up to him. As he said, there’s no rule that a director must sit in the backseat.
And today is Monday.
Time to put aside our roles as lovers and return to being boss and subordinate.
‘Let’s get my act together. Loosening up unknowingly at work could lead to a big mistake.’
Thud. Ra Jin, who had fastened her seatbelt, started the car and skillfully turned the steering wheel.
The car smoothly exited the parking lot and joined the road.
All the while, Jae Heon had been silent, not taking his eyes off his tablet.
It didn’t seem as if he was focused on work, rather…
‘It seems like he’s intentionally being silent to show his discomfort.’
It was a subtle difference that others might not notice, but Ra Jin saw it.
“Director.”
“What.”
“There’s something I’d like to ask.”
“What.”
Despite appearing to be in a bad mood, Jae Heon consistently responded, making Ra Jin unknowingly smile.
She tried to conceal her expression, but Jae Heon had already noticed.
“Why are you smiling?”
“Ah, I apologize. I just couldn’t help it.”
Her side profile as she faced forward, still smiling, was incredibly beautiful. He couldn’t take his eyes off her.
His voice softened a bit.
“So, why did you smile?”
She hesitated for a moment before cautiously opening her mouth.
“May I speak honestly?”
“If you’re not going to be honest, what, you’re going to lie?”
“I thought it might upset you.”
Jae Heon’s eyebrows knitted together tightly. What on earth was she thinking?
“Say it.”
“Are you sure?”
“If I get upset, what, you’re just going to pay attention to my mood?”
Well… that’s true. This wasn’t the first or second time this happened. Moreover, when it came to soothing Jae Heon’s mood, Ra Jin was second to none.
“I thought you were cute.”
His brows furrowed even more. What did I just hear?
The last time I made a meal for Ra Jin, she had called me cute.
“It was really delicious.”
“Of course. Who made it after all… Why are you laughing?”
“Just because. You’re cute, Jae Heon.”
Jae Heon let out a faint sigh.
“I don’t know what’s going on in my secretary’s head, last time and this time.”
“I’m sorry.”
“I wish you looked more sorry.”
“I’ll try.”
Ra Jin said that, but the smile never left her lips.
Damn it. This is ridiculous. I told her to try harder and she still looks like that.
Contrary to his thoughts, Jae Heon’s eyes and lips relaxed.
Ra Jin looked so happy, and it was quite pleasing to see.
If only she could always look that way.
If I… could make her look that way.
Suddenly feeling ticklish at the thought, Jae Heon looked out the car window.
A young couple in their early twenties were holding hands and walking somewhere. They probably attend a nearby university.
Their bright and cheerful laughter while looking at each other was uplifting.
If we had gotten closer while attending college, standing next to each other, laughing at trivial things, looking at each other.
Would someone have thought that about us?
I suddenly felt regretful.
Back then, the tension between me and my uncle about my job took all my attention.
If I could go back to those times, it would have been good to have more conversations with Ra Jin.
If I had taken the first step toward her, and we became close, would our relationship be different now?
Suddenly, his train of thought drifted to an unexpected place.
‘How many conversations did she have with Jeong Seon Woo to call him “oppa”? What did he do for her?’
He didn’t like that Seon Woo was the only person Ra Jin called “oppa.”
It wasn’t so much that he wanted to hear the word “oppa” himself…
He would prefer to be the only significant person to Ra Jin.
Even if it’s a temporary relationship, he is still her lover. So this kind of thinking was justified.
Jae Heon convinced himself of that.
‘Anyway, I am closer to her now.’
Taking comfort in that thought, his phone rang.
It was coming from Ra Jin’s phone in his jacket pocket.
‘Somehow, I have a bad feeling about this.’

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
