⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅Y/N 's POV
"Am I doing the wrong thing, Bbama, turning Leeknow down for a proper date?" I asked, the next morning, as I was playing ball with my dog in the park. "I mean, I've known him for a couple of weeks. I've worked with him and I've seen for myself that he's great with patients, he's great with their parents and he's really good with the junior staff on the ward, teaching them without making them feel stupid. He fits in well on team nights out. Plus he gave up all that time to help out at the danceathon yesterday. He's one of the good guys. I like him a lot. And he's drop dead gorgeous. Half the women at the hospital would fall at his feet."Bbama barked and I threw the tennis ball for him.
He retrieved it, scampered back and dropped it at my feet.
"But I haven't been asked out by anyone since well, since Hyunjin. And I got it so badly wrong with him. I thought we were getting on just fine. I thought we were happy. I thought he was going to ask me to marry him, and I was going to say yes. And then the adoption agency turned Jisung and Ari down. It broke their heart and of course I was going to offer to carry the baby for them. I wanted to make things right for them again." I sighed. "And Hyunjin made it into something disgusting. Once he realised I really don't care about money, he accused me of many things...I thought he really loved me and would try to understand the situation. And again right now I don't know what is this feeling I get when I am with leeknow. My heart is confused"
Bbama tipped his head on one side, as if to say,
"Are you having feelings for Leeknow?"
That wasn't a question I wanted to answer. Not right now. I threw the ball. "I don't know if I can trust my judgement again, after Hyunjin. I was so wrong about him. What if I've got it wrong about Leeknow too and he's going to be just as disapproving and judge mental about the surrogacy?"
Bbama retrieved the tennis ball and deposited it at my feet.
"I know what Jisung would say He's a nice guy, so give him the benefit of the doubt. Talk to him."
Bbama barked, as if agreeing.
"But it's not the easiest thing to talk about. What do I say? Hey, before we start dating, just so you know was a surrogate mum for my twin brother's baby." She grimaced. "It's not exactly the kind of thing you can just drop casually into a conversation, is it?"
Bbama cocked his head on one side, clearly waiting for me to throw the ball again. I threw it as hard as I could and watched Bbama run after it and bound back to me,
"He asked me to have lunch with him. I said no. But I could call him, see if he's still free. Maybe we could go out as friends. See if we like each other enough to take it a step further. And if that does happen, then I'll work out how to tell him about Bora." Bbama brought the ball back and waited patiently for me to throw it.
"I guess I just need to take life one step at a time instead of trying to plan it all in advance," I said, and threw the ball. When Bbama brought it back ,I ruffled his fur and said, "OK, sweetie. That's it for this morning. We need to get back home"
Bbama barked, as if to say, "Just one more throw."
How could I resist those adorable brown eyes?
Leeknow's eyes were brown and adorable, too...
"How feeble am I, Bbama?" I asked ruefully and threw the ball one last time. Then I made a fuss of the dog, stuffed the tennis ball in my coat pocket, clipped his lead back onto his collar and walked him back through the park to their street.
When I got back to my house, I stared at my mobile phone.Leeknow had given me his phone number before the danceathon in case of emergency.
Should I call him?
Ask if his offer of lunch still stood?It would be a risk. Opening myself up to rejection again.
But part of me knew I needed to move on from the past. Move on from the hurt Hyunjin had caused me. And maybe Leeknow was the one who could help me? Maybe I was the one who could help Leeknow move
on, too from whatever had happened in his own past that put shadows in his eyes every so often? There was only one way to find out.I took a deep breath and called his number....

What do you think will be Leeknow's reaction to Y/N changing her mind as she reconsiders in taking his offer....
