Hwa Yeong responded to Aera's questioning gaze regarding Haneul's jacket with a nostalgic smile, saying, "Ah, that..." She then delved into a flashback, recounting the events of the previous night.
Hwa Yeong had dozed off during the car ride, feeling the cold breeze against her face. Haneul, noticing her sleeping, pulled over to adjust her hair, recline her seat, and gently place his jacket over her. Upon arriving home, Haneul intended to carry Hwa Yeong to her office room sofa, but to his surprise, she was already awake. Stretching as she got out of the car, Hwa Yeong remarked, "It's kinda cold... I better get inside."
Concerned for her comfort, Haneul offered his jacket, saying, "Here, wear this." Hwa Yeong gladly accepted, wearing it and expressing, "Ohh... So warm... Perfect... It also has your scent on it. Now I better be going."
With a playful smirk, Haneul reminded her, "Don't you think you are forgetting something??" He extended his arms, and Hwa Yeong embraced him, planting a sweet peck on his lips. She then hurried to her room, closing the door with a flushed face and racing heart.
Back in the present, Aera remarked on Hwa Yeong's blushing, teasingly asking, "Wah... Chingu, what's making you blush so hard?" Hwa Yeong, still in the afterglow of love, replied, "What?! Really?! I guess I am really in love." They both laughed, and Aera reminded her of the reason for her visit.
Shifting gears, Hwa Yeong invited Aera to take a seat, promising to get her a drink. Aera playfully questioned, "Are you planning to drug me?" Hwa Yeong, with a sarcastic tone, responded, "How do you know?" She handed Aera a cup of chamomile tea, assuring her it was safe to drink. Aera joked, "Now I really think it is drugged... And why are you pretending like you are the one with the dual personality?"
Hwa Yeong went to her computer to complete some work. Engrossed in her work, she turned to Aera and requested, "Aerashi, I've been stuck on this code all night long. Can you check what is wrong?" Aera, taking a moment to inspect the code, exclaimed, "Woah... How much time did it take?? It's really advanced."
Expressing gratitude, Hwa Yeong flipped her hair and responded, "Thanks!! It just took me all night... I didn't get a wink of sleep. That's why I have tired eyes. Wow, just thinking of sleeping makes me sleepy... Wait if people think of sleeping does it make them sleepy. Aera, think of sleeping doe-"
Cutting her off, Aera teased, "You can test your theory on someone else... Let me fix this... I just have one question. Have you tried running the program?" Hwa Yeong confirmed, "Yeah, I did! But then it looked so basic, so I added a couple of touches and now I can't seem to see the stuff I saw before. It's plain white."
Aera, going through the code, identified the issue and explained, "Chingu, you have loops in your code." Confused, Hwa Yeong asked, "What's that?" Aera assured her, "You don't have to know... I'll just fix it." She proceeded to correct the loops and ran the program.
The program unexpectedly declared, "Aera, I have something to tell you. I found your trigger." Excitedly, Hwa Yeong exclaimed, "Yeah! Now it is working!" Aera, taken aback, questioned, "What was that?!"
