Chapter 135: Chapter 135.
“Did you ask for help from Dr. Park regarding the survey?”
“Yes, how did you know? Did you meet him?”
“Yes, near my place last night. Coincidently.”
“In your neighborhood and coincidently?”
“Don’t think about a novel-like plot, please.” Sun shook her head, knowing that she couldn’t stop Ari. “Let’s go back to work.”
While she was waiting for her computer to boot up, she recalled when she was at the subway station.
She was on the escalator, and she smelled Gyeonhui’s scent from behind her all of a sudden.
She turned the music off and was standing still.
“This lady is my girlfriend.”
She heard his voice because the music wasn’t on.
“I can’t stop taking care of you.”
She heard his voice again.
When she recalled his soft voice, a smile spread on her face involuntarily.
When she confirmed that her computer was booted up and ready to use, she put her hand on the mouse.
For some reason, the mouse felt much lighter than usual.
***
In the late afternoon.
After he had lunch, he hummed a song while he was watering the coffee tree.
The coffee tree flower that was fully bloomed and looked more beautiful than ever.
Watching Gyeonhui from the side, Ojae shook his head.
“The flower has bloomed, and your face has too. It looks terrific.”
“What’s the problem?” Gyeonhui said.
“I love you, even your pain… hah. that’s so sad.”
“You’ve treated it like a ghost until yesterday.”
“Actually, I’m still scared of it, but this sad event is much scarier. Hah…” Ojae exhaled a long sigh.
Gyeonhui glanced at Ojae while holding a pitcher.
“How’s it going?” Gyeonhui asked.
“What do you mean?” Hearing Gyeonhui, Ojae was surprised and asked him.
Gyeonhui put down the pitcher and sat in front of him. “I know you’re in trouble with Ms. Lee.”
“No, it’s not like that. Don’t worry about it.”
“Are you sure?” When Gyeonhui asked again, Ojae was almost about to tell him everything, but he didn’t.
If he wanted to tell Gyeonhui everything, Ojae had to say to him that he had slept with her too. Ojae had no choice.
“I understand. You don’t need to tell me everything.” Gyeonhui said, and he had no intention to ask more.
“Hah…”
However, Ojae couldn’t’ hold his long sigh of frustration.
Still watching Ojae, Gyeonhui started speaking slowly. “… Approach her slowly, but sincerely…”
Hearing something very familiar from Gyeonhui, Ojae looked at him.
“Yes, that’s what you told me in the past. You can’t scratch your own back.” Gyeonhui smiled and said to Ojae.
“Hah…”
Burying his body in the chair, Ojae sighed toward the air.
“Slowly… Sincerely…”
Ojae knew it well enough, but when he actually had to do it, it wasn’t easy. However, he had no other choice; he knew that more than anyone else.
Ojae turned his head and looked at the coffee tree flower. After that, he nodded slowly.
Ojae stood straight up from the seat as if he had ascertained something important.
“Where are you going?”
“I know it’s childish, but I’m going to do my best sincerely.”
Ojae went out of the office with a firm expression. Gyeonhui smirked when he saw the door closing.
***
The flower shop on the first floor of the Consencio building.
Ojae looked at the flower basket that was filled with light pink and blue hydrangea.
“Is it going to be moved to the Kiz Fan office?”
The staff of the flower shop confirmed the address again.
“Yes.” Ojae nodded.
“Would you like to leave a note or a memo?”
“A note? Hmm…”
“Here it is.”
The staff provided a flower-patterned and small memo card to Ojae.
When Ojae agonized for a moment, he hesitated to hold a pen. However, he didn’t know what to write on the card.
After being lost in his own thought for a while, Ojae recalled what Gyeonhui said in the office.
“I love even your love… It sounds like it’s a copied version of someone else’s words, and saying this to her sounds too impatient.”
He really had no idea what to write on the card, so he closed his eyes and organized his complicated mind. After struggling for a long time, Ojae finally had realized the closest words to describe his current thoughts about Eunyoung.
He slowly, clearly wrote a message.
“Here it is.”
Ojae put the message in the envelope and gave it to the staff.
“Please send the flower right at the time she’s done at work.”
“I’ll do it.”
After confirming the time again, Ojae left the flower shop.
“I hope she likes it…”
Ojae was nervous with a firm expression and soon went toward the elevator.
At that moment, Ojae saw Eunwoo getting in the elevator going up.
“Dr. Park? Why is he here?” Ojae tilted his head in wonder.
Ojae took out his phone from his pocket and called Gyeonhui.
***
“What? You saw Dr. Park?”
When Gyeonhui received a call from Ojae, his eyebrows dropped dramatically.
However, when he recalled the moment when all three of them met together last night, he nodded.
“He’s here to help the Kiz Fan people on some project.”
Gyeonhui hung up the phone and pretended to be casual.
He tried to review the document he was working on, but he couldn’t focus on it anymore.
“Why does it have to be him? Hah…”
It bothered him so much, and Gyeonhui finally left the office.
When he left the hallway, he met Ari and Eunyoung by chance.
As soon as they saw him, they hesitated.
“I’m not going to eat you.”
Hearing Gyeonhui, Eunyoung and Ari approached him involuntarily.
“Where is Sun?”
“In the office.”
“Alone? I’ve heard Dr. Park is here.”
Hearing his question, Eunyoung looked at him in wonder.
“Yes, he is. He’s come here to help us today.”
“And you know they are together in the office now, and you still are leaving the office behind them?”
“Sorry? What?” Eunyoung asked him without understanding his question.
“According to what you’ve just said, Sun and Dr. Park are in the same closed room. How can you trust him and leave the office while they’re all alone in there?
“Dr. Park isn’t a person like you think because he isn’t like you.”
“What? What?!”
“Anyways, please don’t interrupt us. We’re very, very busy now.”
Eunyoung purposely made him irritated and quickly shut the elevator’s door.
“Hah…”
When the elevator door closed, he frowned immediately.
He was lost in thought for a moment while he was biting his lower lip and started walking toward the Kidz Fan office quickly.
