“Why would I be hurt?”
“Or are you uneasy because you haven’t found a contractor better than me?”
San looked at her as if to say, “Are you joking?” But Kang just smiled at him as if observing a large beast.
Then she soothingly added,
“I can’t do without you.”
His eyes wavered at her words.
“While I’m replaceable, you’re an irreplaceable dream.”
“……”
“So, I always feel I’m the one missing out more.”
She said calmly,

“But when the time comes, I know you might leave on your own.”
Part of her was scared that day might come too soon, but she wasn’t planning to hold him back out of her own greed.
Their clasped hands tightened, and she earnestly conveyed her feelings.
“I’ve been fulfilled having met you.”
“……”
“So, thank you.”
She expressed how, because of him, she slept soundly and learned there’s so much delicious food in the world. It was like a dream.
With those words, Kang exited the car, leaving San wordlessly behind, stunned as if he had been slapped.
Suddenly, it hit him that she, too, might have always felt the same anxiety he did, which felt like a blow to the back of his head.
If Kang’s claim that the one who is irreplaceable feels the loss more was true, then perhaps her side of the scales was weighed down a bit more with fear.

Though they both felt shackled to one another, he couldn’t fathom how she could regard him with such a perspective.
Was it because she was human?
Or simply because she had a warm disposition?
He couldn’t know everything, but he realized one thing.
The words Kang said today alleviated some of his inner restlessness.
San looked down at his hand, still warm from Kang’s touch.
He slowly brushed over his skin.
A peculiar uneasiness tugged at a corner of his heart.
Kang joined her team in front of the restaurant.
The whole place was rented out for the dinner, creating an excited atmosphere.

Lead actors and esteemed senior actors sat at the nearest table, joined by Director Seong Chan-su and Writer Yang Eun-oh.
Unfortunately, there was no spot for Romi.
‘Ah, that’s exactly where I should fit in.’
She planned to join the table naturally when the atmosphere gave her an opening.
Kang wasn’t particularly good at drinking, so she drank in moderation.
The atmosphere around the drinking table wasn’t as oppressive as before, but as the alcohol flowed, some began to lose their inhibitions.
It was at this moment that middle-aged actor Kang Won-seok approached the table where Kang and Shin-hwi were sitting.
“Ah, our lead actors.”
His tone clearly revealed he was tipsy.
“I, the old-timer, will pour a drink. Both of you, please accept a shot from my bottle.”
“Yes, senior. I’ll pour for you first.”

Kang offered, but the inebriated Won-seok squinted his reddened eyes and made a sharp sound with his mouth.
“Don’t play around, accept my drink first.”
“Ah, alright…”
Reluctantly, she held out her glass, and Won-seok poured generously, then offered the bottle to Shin-hwi.
“You too, take some.”
“Yes!”
Quickly, Shin-hwi held out his glass, which was soon filled to the brim.
“Drink up.”
“Aren’t you drinking, senior?”
“Don’t talk back, just drink.”

Won-seok’s stern tone froze the atmosphere momentarily.
However, Shin-hwi soon addressed Kang with a smile.
“Senior, shall we toast?”
“Yes, let’s.”
As she lifted her glass, he lightly clinked his against hers and turned his head to take a sip.
Watching this, Kang Won-seok pursed his thick lips.
“You might look delicate, but it seems you can handle your liquor?”
“Yes. Despite my appearance, I can drink quite well.”
“How much can you drink?”
“Um, I think I can handle three or four bottles of soju.”

“Is that so?”
His eyes gleamed like a predator spotting its prey. He then raised his hand to call over a waitress.
“Ma’am, can we get a bowl for alcohol here?”
