“The person you just called, who the hell is it?”
Lee Ji-ah asks in a cold voice. The eyes that met each other are fading away. Did you know that Lee Ji-ah could make a face like this? Words that were creepy were not enough, so I swallowed my saliva without realizing it.
“That’s Han Ye-rim, a friend I’ve known for a long time… … .”
“Are you friends?”
Lee Ji-ah looked at the watch and asked.
“Are you calling at 1 in the morning?”
“Because he’s such a close friend.”
Why am I making excuses for this?
One of Lee Ji-ah’s eyebrows twitched as she was awkwardly scratching the back of her head.
“So, why did you suddenly make an appointment with Han Ye-rim?”
“He came back after 4 years from working abroad, so it’s a bit difficult to just skip it.”
“You said that there were no annual leave or holidays in the contract.”
Lee Ji-ah made a loud voice. As she said, the annual leave part does not exist in the contract. In principle, in the end, I had no choice but to follow Lee Ji-ah’s words.
Besides, I haven’t been feeling very well since before.
In the end, I broke my stubbornness first.
“Well, then I’ll tell you that I can’t see you.”
I sent a text message to Han Ye-rim.
I would be very disappointed.
[Kim Hyun-woo: Yerim-ah, I don’t think I can meet because of my work ㅜㅜ I’m sorry!]
[Han Ye-rim: Do you work on Sunday?]
[Kim Hyun-woo: Yeah, it happened somehow. I have to keep taking care of you under the contract… … . I’m really sorry]
[Han Ye-rim: You don’t work all Sunday, right?]
what are you going to do on sunday? Lee Ji-ah’s personality doesn’t look like she’s going anywhere. I’ll have to ask one more time though. It was the moment I turned my head.
“OMG! It’s a surprise!”
Lee Ji-ah was clinging to my shoulder and staring intently at my phone. His eyes rolled non-stop, reading the conversation.

My bewildered voice rose slightly.“Jia, what are you doing now?”
“… … yes?”
“What if I steal someone’s cell phone like that? Excuse me!”
At my point, Lee Ji-ah retreated with a shocked face. She stuttered and made excuses.
“I, we… … .”
“yes?”
“… … .”
Lee Ji-ah, who was about to say something, shut her mouth as if she was speechless. Then his expression changed every moment, and he couldn’t control it.
For some reason, there was a strange and heavy silence between Lee Ji-ah and I.
wow.
I got a text message from Han Ye-rim.
[Han Ye-rim: Then I will go to work. Wouldn’t it be okay to look at your face for a moment?]
[Kim Hyun-woo: There must be a lot of people who come to Korea after a long time to see it, is it okay?]
[Han Ye-rim: But you won’t even see your face?]
okay. Even if you don’t have an age, it’s okay to see your face in front of the house for a while. I don’t think Lee Ji-ah will understand to this extent.
“Jia. I just texted a friend.”
“… yes.”
Lee Ji-ah responds with a muffled voice. I felt weak for nothing, so I asked in a gentle tone as much as possible.
“I ask if I can come home tomorrow. Would it be okay?”
“… … .”
Lee Ji-ah bit her thumb and fell into trouble.
“ah.”
Lee Ji-ah, who was worried, suddenly realized something and made an expression on her face. The color of his dying complexion turned black.
“Hyun-woo, when did you and your friend decide to see each other?”
“Oh, tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow, or Sunday, right? Today is the date.”
“yes that’s right.”
Lee Ji-ah let out a sad laugh. She flopped and laid back on the bed.
“Then it’s fine. Hyunwoo.”
“thanks! What time do you want me to come home?”
I asked Lee Ji-ah, the owner of the house, to set a convenient time zone, and I got an unexpected answer.
“No, I don’t have to see you at home. Make an appointment for tomorrow.”
“yes? But… … .”
When I blurted out the end of my words to indicate if it would be okay, Lee Ji-ah readily answered.
“I’m going too.”
“Thank you, Jia!”
I shared this good news with a friend.
[Kim Hyun-woo: Yerim-ah, I think I will see you tomorrow]
[Han Yerim: Really? Why suddenly?]
[Kim Hyun-woo: I got permission from the boss haha]
[Han Ye-rim: All haha So, shall we see you for lunch tomorrow? ]
[Kim Hyun-woo: Okay, see you tomorrow at lunch]
[Han Ye-rim: ＜^) Oh(^＞/ ＜ Sleep well ) ]
While looking at the phone and smirking, Lee Ji-ah asks.
“When did you decide to see me?”
“Tomorrow’s lunch.”
“okay? Then I should go to bed early.”
Lee Ji-ah grabbed my collar and laid me on the bed. How long has it been since you closed your eyes? Lee Ji-ah whispered softly.
“Han Ye-rim… … Han Ye-rim… … Han Ye-rim… … Han Ye-rim… … Han Ye-rim… … Han Ye-rim… … .”
wow. Whoops.
A creepy nail biting sound hitting your ear.
Lee Ji-ah repeats Han Ye-rim’s name a little.
The shirt is damp with sweat.
“… … .”
Pretending that the bed was uncomfortable, I turned to Han Yoo-jeong.
“… … .”
Han Yoo-jeong was looking at me with only one eye open.
“… … Are you not sleeping?”
“I woke up because it was noisy.”
“sorry… … .”
I shut my eyes tight.
* * *
“Mr. Hyun-woo, Mr. Hyun-woo.”
Lee Ji-ah shook my shoulder and woke me up. Confused, I asked gibberish.
“Uh, huh? Mr. Jia? Why, why are you in my room?”
“Yesterday we slept together because of Yoojung. Don’t you remember?”
“Oh right.”
Rubbing his eyes, he stood up. I looked at the clock and it was still 6 am. It’s not the military, what are you waking up already?
“Aren’t you waking up too early?”
“It’s like meeting a friend for lunch.”
“Oh, right. But why… … ?”
What does meeting friends for lunch have to do with waking up at 6 in the morning?
Looking at her with such a question, Lee Ji-ah smiles.
“Then we should prepare to meet.”
“Are you ready to meet?”
I checked the watch again.
It was also 6 o’clock.
“… … From six in the morning?”
“I woke up late on purpose because Hyunwoo was sleeping so well. In fact, it’s still too late.”
“No, though… … .”
“Come on.”
Lee Ji-ah grabbed my hand and pulled me in. My body was dragged like a piece of paper by the grip of the S-Rank Hunter. Arrived at the dressing table.
“I’m sitting here.”
Lee Ji-ah, who spoke firmly, sat down in front of the dressing table with Han Yu-jeong. Han Yoo-jeong gave off a troublesome tee and ranted.
“Do I have to do this too?”
“yes.”
“I’ve never done it before.”
“Then be still. I will do it for you.”
Unlike Han Yoo-jung, who is bothersome, Lee Ji-ah ambitiously applied cosmetics.
Tired of waiting in the back, I asked.
“Jia, it’s been an hour already.”
“Almost done.”
After putting on makeup for one more hour, Lee Ji-ah changed clothes in the fitting room for the rest of the time.
“how about it?”
“Wow, it’s really pretty.”
“Is this?”
“Does it look great?”
“This too.”
“… … Oh, it suits you.”
“How about this?”
“Jia, please stop… … .”
*
“Mr. Jia.”
“yes?”
“is this right?”
I asked when I went out with Lee Ji-ah and Han Yu-jeong. Lee Ji-ah, who had her arms crossed by my side, blinked.
“What?”
“It’s arms crossed. Is that right?”
“ah.”
Lee Ji-ah smiled brightly.
“I can’t help it.”
A day had not passed yet, and Han Yoo-jung’s slaughter was still maintained.
Lee Ji-ah clings to her side while walking, saying she is afraid of falling.
Even high school student Han Yoo-jung was wearing it on her side, so it was obvious that the eyes around her would sting, so she was waiting in the shadows.
“If you don’t like it, shall we go back? I’m fine.”
Lee Ji-ah asked, giving strength to her folded hands.
To be honest, the feeling of wanting to go back was like a chimney because of the gaze I felt around me.
But now, 30 minutes before the appointment time.
There must have been time for Han Ye-rim to prepare too, but it was not polite to go back here.
“… … No, I’ve come too far to go back. Let’s go.”
tiling.
got a call. It was Han Ye-rim.
“Oh, Yerim.”
– Where are you?
“I have arrived. Oh, and as I explained in text earlier… … .”
-You mean your boss is coming too?
“yes. I have no choice but to work.”
– Well, I say hello to you too.
“It must be embarrassing, but I’m sorry.”
– No, no, ah! I see you there
I looked around and finally found Yerim Han. raised his hand and cried.
“Yerim! Hey, Yerim Han!”
Han Ye-rim approached me from afar. She stopped in front of us.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Han Ye-rim and Lee Ji-ah’s eyes crossed.
*
Confidence drifted on Lee Ji-ah’s face, who had been looking at Han Ye-rim for a long time.
“… !”
What, what are you laughing at?
Han Ye-rim, who was about to get angry, calmed her heart and handed her a greeting.
“hello? Are you Lee Ji-ah? I heard a lot from Hyeonu.”
“Me too. You’re Yerim Han, right?”
“By the way, do you two look very close?”
At Han Ye-rim’s question, Lee Ji-ah smiled calmly.
“We’ve been together for a month, how can we not become friends?”
“… Oh, is it?”
“Don’t be like this here, let’s go eat lunch first. Oh, and I guess I’ll have to keep my arms crossed… … .”
Lee Ji-ah hummed a hum.
“… … Are you okay?”
