313 – New York Double Date (2)
New York is called the de facto capital of the United States.
New York City is the largest city not only in New York State but also in the United States, and is a large, traditional metropolis that can be called an economic and cultural center.
It is so vast that it is considered a world-class city.
And the fame of New York…
It was not simply limited to the world of ordinary people.
“In American Holder circles, it is called the city of the two major mountain ranges.”
“Yangdaesan Mountains?”
Kim Chae-eun asks questions as if it’s fascinating and fun.
She probably knew something about it because she had studied it, but it seemed like it was good to hear it from her own words again.
“Yes. LA and New York. This place has the largest number of holders and is also home to large world-class clans. “It goes without saying, but places that are mainly large cities also become famous as holder cities.”
New York is called the holder city of America’s two major mountain ranges.
It is the largest city along with Los Angeles and is home to many large clans and high-ranking holders.
Just as we had a well-established holder infrastructure in Seoul, the capital and largest city, the United States also had a structure where holders had no choice but to gather in famous and large cities.
“Wow… “There are so many people.”
Maybe that’s why there was a huge crowd of holders waiting at the [Warp Gate] Where we arrived.
New York’s Wharf Gate is located in Queens, just across the river from Manhattan, the center, and is also where JFK Airport (*New York’s main airport) is located.
‘It’s similar to Incheon.’
Just as Korea’s international warp gate is located at Incheon International Airport, the United States also has international warp gates located within each regional airport.
But there is a difference.
JFK Airport, which was somewhat smaller than ATL Airport or LAX Airport, which are called super-large airports in the United States, has become much larger in size as it has become a hub for international holders?
“Is the airport bigger because it is the central city of the holders?”
“Yes. “Everyone who wants to come to New York goes through this airport.”

The central cities of American holders, LA and New York.
Holders traveling internationally naturally use the warp gates of these two cities.
In other words, most holders traveling to and from the United States use one of the two.
Because of this, the floating population inside JFK Airport was enormous, and thanks to this, the surrounding convenience facilities and annex buildings were built in a very splendid manner.
“Wow- I’m so excited, Jaehyun!”
A hot breath worthy of the city’s reputation.
Chae-eun Kim must have liked their welcoming greeting as she smiled brightly and pulled my arm.
“Okay. “It definitely feels like I’m on a trip, right.”
“Yes! Where is our hotel? “Is it around here?”
“No, the hotel is on the Manhattan side. You can just go straight to the domestic warp gate….”
I turn my gaze slightly to the gate in question and look at Kim Chae-eun, trailing off her words.
She is staring at me with her bright eyes.
It’s like, ‘I want to stay here more…’ It felt like he was shouting ‘!’
At that, I couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“Shall we take a quick look around Queens?”
“Yes!”
As expected, what Kim Chae-eun wanted was a colorful trip.
I wanted to go straight to the Manhattan hotel to unpack and rest, but since I had come all the way to the U.S., I was also happy to travel as I pleased.
Fortunately, since I wasn’t on a plane, I had enough stamina.
After putting our suitcases and luggage in the magic bag, we got ready to leave the airport.
“… Uh?”
A familiar face encountered in an unfamiliar place.
Until I saw Park Jin-woo.
“Why are you here?”
“… ….”
Park Jin-woo is looking at us with a nervous expression.
He scratched his head and sighed, then slowly approached the front of us.
“Hey, Do Jae-hyeon.”
“Huh?”
Jinwoo Park’s cold voice is heard for the first time.
The situation unfolds unexpectedly and the tone is completely unfamiliar.
For some reason, I also felt nervous about that combination.
And Jinwoo Park continued.
“Keep your promise.”
“Promise?”
“Uh.”
“… “What promise?”
“Special coaching! If you create a clan, you will receive special coaching!! But this damn bastard has been putting it off for a while, and he hasn’t even started coaching yet, so he comes over to play with his girlfriend under the pretext of work?! Hey, you bastard. Save me first… !!”
Park Jin-woo’s shouts filled with anger hit my ears and surroundings strongly.
It feels as if he will grab me by the collar at any moment.
I was momentarily surprised by that absurd situation…
A thought suddenly occurred to him and he hit his head.
‘You bastard, you still haven’t confessed.’
Park Jin-woo, who was crazy about training and growth, had been building walls around dating.
The relationship between him and Camilla is…
It seems like things are still at a standstill.
* * *
“So… Camilla said she was coming to America for a while on vacation, so she just followed along, but you haven’t even told her you’re here?”
“Oh- that’s correct….”
Park Jin-woo answered with a slightly downcast expression.
A very rare sight for those who knew him.
But I had no sympathy for that at all.
‘No, you can just contact me.’
I also came to the United States. Let’s take a look.
I was just curious so I contacted you….
What is so difficult about it that makes you hesitate?
Wow, head to head….
I could barely stop the words from rising to my throat.
It was an exclamation-like curse that he would have felt free to use under normal circumstances, but for Park Jin-woo, who had lost his confidence, it was better to be sparing.
“Ha… I also took 5 days of vacation….”
My eyebrows twitched at Park Jin-woo’s complaints.
“What a vacation. “Could it be Evil Hunter?”
“Then where else would I spend my vacation other than with my clan? “The academy is closed.”
“Why did you take your vacation and not say a word to the master?”
“Oh, I guess you didn’t listen because you were preoccupied with your date. Since the emergency convocation has already been completed, we just need to get approval from the human resources team.”
“… “That’s right.”
For Park Jin-woo, this is needlessly logical.
This kid speaks so well, but why does he make a fool of himself in front of Camilla?
I was so embarrassed that I scratched my head.
“Hey, Jinwoo liked Camilla….”
And Kim Chae-eun is admiring with a strange face next to her.
Come to think of it, no one but me knew that Park Jin-woo liked Camilla.
It seems like he’s been showing off quite a bit, but surprisingly, no clan members or friends have noticed this.
“Kim Chae-eun, never tell anyone else. “It’s definitely a secret.”
Park Jin-woo asks her to trust him.
When I saw that, I lightly scolded him.
“Hey, is Chae-eun the type of person to go and brag? Don’t worry.”
“… “I wonder if someone is not his girlfriend.”
“If I flirt with you, you too will fall in love.”
“Do you really want to rummage? Shall we calculate all the things we forgot to do when we decided to do special coaching? “Think about how to coach right now.”
“Sorry. “I’m thinking desperately right now.”
After folding it once, I immediately lowered my head and reflected.
Park Jin-woo, who awakens to love, is scared.
“But you know.”
Kim Chae-eun, who was laughing while watching our comic talk, spoke as if something suddenly occurred to her.
“Wasn’t Camilla a member of the California Academy? That’s where she interacted with our academy. But why is Jinwoo in New York?”
“Oh, that….”
‘California Holder Academy’ located on the outskirts of LA.
Along with the Holder Academy in New York, it is the most famous and outstanding academy in the United States.
Camila Flores was a holder who came here as an exchange student, and of course, if she came to the United States for a vacation, LA was the place she should be.
“Camila’s parents moved to New York. “There is no need to go to the academy since all the administrative procedures have been completed, and Camilla was in the U.S. On vacation anyway, so I guess she came to New York.”
In other words, Camilla is also in New York now.
I asked Jinwoo Park as he explained this clearly.
“I heard you haven’t been able to contact me since you came to the U.S., But you’re surprisingly quick?”
“I heard it when I was in Korea.”
“What did you hear about it in Korea?”
“… When conquering the Leaver’s Room. “After the clan meeting.”
“Really, what would you have done if I hadn’t created a clan?”
“Please shut up.”
I kept my mouth shut because I thought he would pull out his sword if I did a little more.
As expected, Park Jin-woo, who awakens to love, is scary.
“Then shouldn’t we just meet? “If it’s the same New York.”
Kim Chae-eun suddenly tilts her head and asks.
As expected, she is my girlfriend.
This thought is very similar to mine.
Park Jin-woo trembled at the appearance of Do Jae-hyun mk2, and then answered with a sigh, as if it was difficult for him to even get angry at Kim Chae-eun.
“If it were that easy, would I be doing this?” .”
If Park Jin-woo was that good at dating in the first place, it doesn’t matter whether Camilla is in New York or LA.
You can contact me right away and go see me.
… The problem for him was that it was complicated and difficult.
“Then shall we meet together?”
“Huh?”
My attention and Park Jin-woo’s attention are drawn to the unexpected proposal.
Kim Chae-eun pointed out her finger as if asking what was the problem.
“If you find it difficult to meet alone, you can watch it together. Camilla and Jinwoo, me and Jaehyun. “We do a lot of activities together so it’s not awkward.”
Kim Chae-eun smiled brightly as she came up with a clear answer.
“How about a New York double date?”
* * *
We made a decision right away on Kim Chae-eun’s suggestion.
I decided to send a text message to Camilla.
At first, she told Jinwoo Park to call her directly, but he said he couldn’t do that, so we agreed via text message.
Luckily, Chae-eun and I also have time.
Hendrix’s official invitation was tomorrow, so there was still plenty of time.
However.
“Kim Chae-eun, are you really okay?”
Park Jin-woo keeps asking if he felt sorry for no reason.
Anyway, for Chae-eun, it was her first date with me in a long time, and it was time just with us.
It seemed like he was having trouble taking this away because of his own problems.
A person who is so considerate is not capable of dating on his own.
“Yes. “We had a long trip anyway, so we had a lot of time, and I also wanted to go on a double date someday.”
After saying that, Kim Chae-eun turns her gaze to me for a moment.
He looks like he’s fine, but what about me?
She smiled at him and nodded her head.
“I’m fine too. From the beginning, I was supposed to give Jinwoo special coaching. “I need to teach you properly this time with a double date.”

Park Jin-woo, who heard those words, frowned and scolded her.
“Hey. Is that what you coach? Kim Chae-eun does it.”
“In some ways, I am a director. Chae-eun is the coach I brought with me. “Bringing in a good coach is also a managerial skill.”
“Oh, if you can’t even talk.”
In response to my spiteful answer, the guy declared surrender.
And it’s not wrong.
In fact, I was the one who brought Chae-eun to the United States, and I personally wrote her text message to Camilla in collaboration with her.
“Does Camilla know that you came to New York?”
“Oh, I said it once last time.”
“Okay. Then we can send it like this.”
Send text messages as naturally and smoothly as possible.
Me, Chae-eun Kim, Jin-woo Park, Camilla.
About the proposal for the four of us to meet together like this.
Of course, I never used the word ‘double date’, it was just a text message saying that my friends were coming to the US on a schedule and how about hanging out together.
And.
“It’s here!”
Park Jin-woo shouts and holds on to his cell phone.
[Camila Flores] Good. Let’s go together. Master, Chae Eun. View of America. Let us help.
A positive answer came from Camilla.
