Is anyone there?

Shall I tell you how I feel?

Hi all,

This chapter is a calm one. I just thought that since they are in their mature comfortable age, they do not have to rush into things. I also believe that knowing one another first is the way to go. Let me know how you think they will proceed with this.

'Noona, how have you been?' DoHwan blurted out while sipping on his coffee.

It is a simple question but there are so many ways to answer them. Do I answer how's my work has been? Or do I answer it as "nothing much"?

She chose the latter. 'Nothing much DoHwan-na just busy with projects'

'It seems all my seniors have a similar answer. The other day I met with Min-Ho sunbaenim, he also answered them like this. Do you guys hang out often when I am not around?'

Does he knows about Sunbae and me? or is he teaming up with Sunbae?

...

Since that midnight, she hasn't been thinking about it much. But today after meeting with Do-Hwan, it got her to really analyze the situation. Falling in love with someone is not easy for her. Especially if that someone is from the same industry. She had the experience before. The denials, the secret meet-up, and the constant worries of being exposed. What she had now is what she is comfortable with. But she knows, in order to grow one must not be in their comfort zone. But is she ready for this?

...

Since that midnight, she is all he ever thinks of. They haven't met again after that midnight. But they do text each other more than before. It is like high school all over again for him. Being giddy and always being caught giggling by his sister who only showed him her annoyed look.

Although the situation has now changed, he knew that he must handle this situation correctly. For couples in this industry, the challenges are even more. The media always try to dig up their stories, the fans who are against them, or simply the drift because both are just too busy.

He hasn't broached the situation yet with his sister, because they are still in the early phase. They do not actually declare to each other their feelings. But he knows that what he felt is not one-sided. He does not want to rush her into this just yet. He wanted to build this relationship on solid ground that even the hardest obstacle will not shake them. He knew the strongest foundation for it is to be her confidant. Someone she trusted and someone she can rely on. He knows she has the support from her family and friends but he just felt that he wanted to be even more than that. That he will become amongst the earliest she will run to.

He still remembers the Netflix interview that they did with the other co-star. She said that when the time comes, she will leave everything and concentrate on her family. He still remembers that he felt so calm hearing that. Even though they are not at that stage yet during that time, he knew that he just loved the idea of her being a wife and a mother. He may have even prayed that he was in that picture as well.

...

He was busy the whole day. He bet she is too because they did not text each other. But when he did get one, he went blank.

Ggone: Sunbae, we need to talk

People always say that when a woman says they wanted to talk, it can only mean trouble. It is too soon. When he was finally able to take a breather, he was submerged again in uncertainties.
