Kim Ji Woong: Office Romance

In a busy office, with the sound of keyboards clicking and papers shuffling, there was Kim Ji Woong. He was really good at his job and a lot of people, especially girls, liked to be around him. You watched from the side, keeping your feelings a secret.

You both talked once, but it felt like he was more interested in others. Still, You couldn't help but like how nice he was. He treated everyone well, and it was clear he wasn't interested in anyone. Even so, you couldn't help but admire his kindness.

One day, you both reached for a paper at the same time. Your hands touched, and he smiled, saying, "Looks like we're always on the same page."

As time went on, you talked to eachother more, teased each other and shared smiles from across the office. One day, he gave you a coffee and his hand brushed yours. He joked, "A little extra kick for the busiest person in the office."

Then, one evening, he asked if you wanted to go for a walk after work. The city lights were pretty, and he said, "You know, I've always admired how well you handle things, even when it's really busy. You impress me."

You blushed and said, "You make everything look so easy, Ji Woong."

In moments like these, You started to think maybe there was a chance for you.

You felt close, like you understood each other. Your conversations flowed easily, and there was a new spark of playfulness between you both. Ji Woong started to compliment you, and he said he really liked the new witty side of you. "You're quick on your feet," he said, and it made you feel special.

As you walked together, it felt chilly, You rubbed your hands together to warm them up. Ji Woong noticed and smiled, pulling out a hand warmer sachet. "Here, this should help,"he said, placing it in one of your hands

Then, he gently held your other hand. "And this one is just because my hands are warm," he teased.

You couldn't help but smile back at him, feeling a rush of warmth that had nothing to do with the hand warmer. "Well, I appreciate it. My fingers were turning into icicles."

He chuckled, his breath forming little clouds in the cold air. "Can't have that,
now can we? I need those quick wit and nimble fingers of yours."

As you walked together, your hands warmed by the hand warmer and Ji Woong's touch, You couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment wash over me. The words slipped out before you could stop them. "I like this."

Ji Woong chuckled, the sound filling the crisp night air. "I like it too," he replied, his eyes holding yours with a warmth that sent a shiver down your spine.

Just as you were about to say more, he stopped suddenly, his gaze intense. "Wait a minute," he said, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "I think there's something I forgot to ask you."

Your heart raced, a mix of anticipation and nervousness flooding through me. "What is it?" You asked, trying to keep my voice steady.

He took a deep breath, then flashed you a playful grin. "Would you do me the honor of putting up with my terrible jokes and sharing awkward silences for the rest of our lives? In other words, will you be my girlfriend?"

You burst out laughing, the tension melting away. "You really know how to sweep a girl off her feet, Ji Woong."

He joined in your laughter, relief washing over his face. "So, is that a yes then?"

You nodded, a wide smile spreading across your face. "Yes, a thousand times yes."

And just like that, under the moonlit sky, you sealed our newfound connection with laughter and love, knowing that this was the beginning of something beautiful.
