CHAPTER NINETEEN a house for two.
Renjun loved driving. It was the one activity that he was truly left alone to think about anything he wanted. It was as if he took shower thoughts and did it his own way.
Yet his 'shower' looked like four wheels and a sun roof.
He loved it nonetheless. The rev of the engine when he started it up, the smooth gliding of the wheels beneath him and the silence that was settled inside of his beloved car.
It was up until recently that his car began to see such vibrant conversations. Every time he would have someone sit in his passenger seat, he would request them to rest and stay quiet throughout their drive. Renjun always made the same excuse saying that he couldn't focus when someone was speaking.
But with Hwa Young, he never had the heart to silence her. And quite frankly, he didn't want to. It was odd how he adored her voice. A man of no rest, weirdly wanted to shut his eyes and listen to her until he could fall asleep.
Perhaps it was one of the reasons why he fell so unconsciously in love with the woman, because it was something he would hear everyday back in high school. It didn't even matter if she was scolding him about picking another fight with some student at school or if she was reading him a book that she had suddenly taken interest in.
He didn't care, as long as he heard her voice.
These days, Renjun has been indulging himself with these moments. And today, as they drove to meet their realtor— in hoodies and sweats— it wasn't any different.
