Thinking of Woojin’s mom who pleaded to show that there’s someone she’s dating, she has to somehow persuade the boss. Let’s date. If dating is not possible, at least a contract dating. If that’s not acceptable, pretend to be dating.
“Go get some paper towels.”
Boss Gidaeun said, adding a gesture as if chasing away flies with anticipation. Happy about the instruction, Autumn quickly went behind the partition to the sink. For now, it seemed like the reprimand for being late was over.
Gidaeun watched with a mocking expression as Autumn disappeared behind the partition. Giving me free hangover remedy? That’s an impossible thing.
It’s fortunate if it’s not a scam. However, such a possible thing just happened. Did Autumn just say it’s free with her own mouth?
‘She must have something to ask for.’
Reflexively, Gidaeun’s face stiffened. If it’s Autumn’s request, there was something that came to mind. Is Autumn going to ask me to date her again?
Gidaeun knew that Autumn had a boyfriend named Woojin. It was Woojin’s father who introduced Autumn. Woojin’s father said Autumn was his son’s girlfriend.
Autumn said she wanted to organize Woojin. She also mentioned that she needed to show Woojin that she had a new person in her life. That way, Woojin might be able to let go of his feelings for her.
While Gidaeun was thinking about that, Autumn was contemplating behind the partition.
With a towel in one hand and a mop in the other, since Autumn kept things so clean, there was little difference between a mop and a towel. The boss wouldn’t be able to distinguish.
Autumn put the towel neatly into the drawer and soaked the mop in hot water. Holding it, she approached the boss. The boss, who was sprawled on the sofa in his original position, accepted the mop on his face.
“I need to sober up. Order me some breakfast.”
“What should I order?”
“Figure it out yourself.”
Lazy person. He doesn’t even think about what to eat with his own head. He always eats whatever Autumn orders. Autumn gazed at the boss’s face covered with a mop.
But she quickly corrected her thoughts and called the boss in the kindest voice possible.
“Boss?”
Autumn thought she should gather her courage when the boss’s face was covered with a mop.
It seemed easier to say “Let’s date” if she didn’t see his face. It would also be easier to accept rejection without looking into the boss’s eyes.
“Do you have a moment?”
“What? Want to date again?”
The boss’s immediate response surprised Autumn. Did the boss become interested?
“Did Woojin’s mom call again? Asking you to break up with her son? She always asks me to date her whenever she calls. She says rumors should spread in the neighborhood that Hangaeul is dating. How many times is this now?”
“Ninth time. And this time, she didn’t call, she came in person.”
“No. How can you ask your company boss to date? Nine times at that. Even if I look like a joke.”
Despite the boss’s grumbling, Gidaeun’s face was frighteningly stiff. Helpless Hangaeul. You shouldn’t do this to me.
Did you decide to torture me? For the future of your boyfriend. He mumbled silently.
‘Stop it. It’s not like I’m asking you to date because I like you.’
Autumn murmured in her mind according to her feelings. Seeing the boss blatantly showing that he doesn’t want to date me, courage disappeared. But thinking of Woojin’s mom kneeling in front of her, she gathered her courage.
“I’ve explained my circumstances. Do you think I’d want to do this to the boss of the company I work for? Even though we’ve built up some affection, please understand and be a little accommodating.”
“Affection?”
The mop on Gidaeun’s face trembled slightly. Gidaeun found it ridiculous that Autumn expressed her feelings as ‘affection.’ He snorted.
“Three months. Just three months, can’t it be?” Autumn spoke in a low tone as much as possible.
“If there were someone else around me or if I had time to meet someone else, I wouldn’t do this to the boss. As you know, there are only the students I teach and the convenience store part-timers around me, and they’re like my siblings. It’s a crime to ask them to date. But why exactly three months? Why does it take three months for you to let go of Woojin’s feelings for you, knowing that I have a boyfriend?”
Whether she was naive, foolish, or overflowing with confidence, Gidaeun was irritated by Autumn, who seemed to take Woojin’s feelings too lightly. Due to this, Daeun abruptly stood up, causing the mop to fall from his face.
“The time it takes to prevent Woojin from coming back to Korea. He needs time to sort out his feelings before the fall semester starts.”
Since the boss didn’t want to be tied down, it seemed necessary to make it clear that our relationship wouldn’t be permanent. That way, there was a higher chance the boss would accept the idea of dating. Surprisingly, the boss agreed to the three-month period.
“Then is that not like a contractual relationship? Or pretending to be in a relationship.”
“That won’t work. Do you think I haven’t thought about that? You’ve lived in this neighborhood for a year, so you should know what kind of neighborhood this is. Especially in this neighborhood, long-time residents even know how many spoons each other has in their homes. You have to trust people like that. A contract or imitation won’t work.”
“Well, that’s true. Are only raccoons living in this neighborhood? Why do they sniff around and go back, sniffling?”
Daewoon grumbled in agreement with Autumn’s words. After moving here, he had been tormented by excessive curiosity from the neighborhood people.
“And eating together, watching movies, going to nice places, it’s all the same. Why bother calling it a contractual relationship? Just call it a relationship. Besides, the boss likes me. You like the boss, right? We all know.”
Speechless, Daewoon momentarily considered various thoughts. From ‘Did I spill my emotions?’ to ‘What does he know, and why is he saying he likes me so easily?’ He didn’t know anything.
In what kind of fate are we entangled, and how am I looking at you? You know nothing. Daewoon shouted silently in his mind.
