A/N: Surprise update! Enjoy!

—-

Yoon Jin Ah sauntered into the office early, almost skipping to her desk. When her eyes fell on to the vase filled with flowers, she sighed. Rushing to it, she found the note for the day.

Thanks for going out with me last night! In case you haven't noticed, I like dating you

Kisses, Zinu the Cute

Jin Ah felt like a school girl experiencing her first love. She knew that Yoo Jin Woo had requested Shim Hye-won to provide Jin Ah with flowers every couple of weeks. However, he constantly surprised her with an additional bouquet every so often, like this one because of their recent dinner date.

Then, there were notes.

Poetic, he was not. But cute and sincere, most definitely.

As a new couple with burning attraction for one another, Jin Ah assumed that most of their time would be spent in the bedroom but it was Jin Woo who insisted that they get to know each other better as well. "You can't just be with me for my looks, you know," he teased after another round in bed.

Jin Ah giggled leaning on his chest. "But I'm finally accepting that you ARE handsome!"

Jin Woo waved her off. "You can still ogle me while we're having dinner."

And ogle him she did because since they started dating, he just seemed to look better and better.

They often decide to meet up at a venue after work so as to avoid the rumor mill at the office. But it was getting more and more difficult for them not to react to each other's presence at work.

Once, while in a meeting about a new building in Busan that the group was interested in, Yoo Sang-a called in her brother for comment. When Jin Woo entered, he stood by Jin Ah's side while he asked questions on the presentation. His hand, placed on the back of her chair, lightly brushing her nape as he talked.

Jin Ah kept biting her lip and looking down to avoid staring at him. She also hoped no one would wonder why she was smiling. Of course, if no one noticed that, people surely noted how her smile was immediately wiped off when Jin Woo exited quickly. "You're leaving already?"

"Yes," Jin Woo replied. Seeing her flustered and frowning, he took a paper and scribbled something. "Here's my last input."

You decide. I trust you. P.S. You look gorgeous. See you later - Z

Another time, they were invited separately to office dinners with their teams but they declined saying they already had plans. Plans were not an excuse because they did want to celebrate their first week together so they had dinner... at the same restaurant Jin Ah's team chose.

Sometimes though, it was through arguments.

"Jin Ah-ssi, I did my due diligence for that golf resort. It's a good purchase!" Jin Woo said.
