"Oh? You're early," Yeonjun, whose working table is right in front of Jihoon's, asked as he saw Jihoon already at his place. He remembered that yesterday, Jihoon said that he'll come to the office at 10. Now it's just barely 8 am in the morning but that colleague is already at his working place. Jihoon didn't give any response to his words. He looked like his mind is not currently with him. Yeonjun walked toward Jihoon's side after putting his stuff at his place. "Park Jihoon,"

Jihoon startled a bit before he turned at his side fast. After seeing that it's Yeonjun, Jihoon let out a relieved sigh.

"It's only you," Jihoon said. He looked at his laptop's screen. His eyes widened as he saw what he had typed. He probably started to spaced out after typing the word 'prepared' while preparing his report, seeing the amount of that alphabet on the word that he typed. Jihoon quickly deletes the unnecessary 'd's and finishes his report.

"What's on your mind, huh?" Yeonjun asked.

"Nothing," Jihoon said. He didn't even know if he should actually talk about what was in his mind.

"Ah! I heard that you've moved to a new apartment. You didn't even invite me to your housewarming party. I'm sad," Yeonjun acted as if he's sulking. Earning a scoff and eyes roll from Jihoon.

"There's no housewarming party at all. And I'm living with a new housemate. I don't think any of you know him. He has been in London for years and just got back here in like less than a month. I still need to ask him if he's okay for me to throw a housewarming party," Jihoon said. "Besides, we have been really busy for the past weeks with all the events and stuff. We barely even talk about things other than work,"

"You're right. We have been really busy," Yeonjun nodded. He just realized something. "Eh? New housemate? What about your cousin?"

"Junkyu? He is already happily living in Japan," Jihoon said. Yeonjun looked like he needed more explanation. "He got promoted for some reason and had to transfer to Japan. Actually I have been looking for new apartment to move in to for few weeks already before my new housemate suggested that we should shared the rent,"

"I see," Yeonjun nodded. "Wait! How can you easily agree to live together with a stranger?"

"He's not a stranger. He's my classmate during high school. Before he moved to London because of his parents' work," Jihoon said. Jihoon paused a bit before he decided to ask Yeonjun about it. "Yeonjun. How would you reject someone's confession?"

"You asked me? The Jihoon I know never even flinched and will just reject any confessions since you have decided not to just date anymore 4 years ago. Suddenly today, asked me how to reject someone's confession? Really?" Yeonjun asked. "Just reject them like how you always did. It's not that hard. Or you're planning to try to be in a romantic relationship again?"

"No. It's not that. You know how those kinds of relationships and me are never a match. It's tiring me physically and mentally," Jihoon said. "I'm asking because I probably need to think about their feeling, not to hurt their feeling,"

"Seriously? 'Probably', huh?" Yeonjun asked. "Since when do you care about people's feelings?"

"You're not going to give me an answer, right? I shouldn't even have asked you in the first place anyway. Go back to your place," Jihoon said. Shooing Yeonjun away.

"See. You didn't even care about my feeling," Yeonjun rolled his eyes before he walked back toward his desk. Jihoon giggled seeing his colleague's reaction. But he knew it well that Yeonjun didn't really take it to heart with what he just said. Yeonjun opened his laptop. Jihoon continues to do his work. "But you know. Maybe it's not that kind of relationship that's not a match. Probably you just haven't found the right person to be in that kind of relationship with. You probably just need to find the right person at the right time. Not all relationship will tire you up, Park Jihoon,"
