Dong Wook immediately jumps off the couch and headed to his kitchen. He drinks a glass of water before contemplating what happened.
"What the heck happened to me back there? " he asked himself. " And why do I feel so defensive, I've hug her before, we were best friends and it was normal for us to embrace sometimes even cuddle. And I have kissed her on her cheeks or in her forehead before. And if I'm being honest with myself, I did kissed her on her shoulder before." He thought to himself.
His mind suddenly pictured that scene. He was at her place that time. They both just finished taping for Running Man. He was guest partner of Ji Hyo and it was a Cooking battle episode. They were both tired but he took her home after. She wore a big shirt after showering and it came off her shoulder while they were at her couch. He was too mesmerized by her creamy shoulder that he can't help but kiss it. She immediately stiffened so he tried to passed it off as if he just fell asleep on her shoulder and that his lips just accidentally touch her shoulder.
"Yaa, why am i suddenly remembering such awkward memories. And Dong Wook stop acting like a pervert." He scolded himself.
'Maybe I just missed her so much and seeing her a mere inches away from me makes me want to hug her and kiss her. Nothing's wrong with that right, after all we are bestfriends.' He tried to reason with himself and eventually calms himself to approach Ji Hyo again.
"Ahjumma, did I startle you? I really miss you my chingu." Then he sits next to her and casually drape his arm around her shoulders.
" Ahjussi, I was just surprised. We haven't seen each other for quite sometime. I think I'm not that use to you anymore." She chuckled silently.
"Ji hyo ssi what are you saying? I'm your bestfriend so you better get use to us being close even if we haven't have time to be there for each other always. Don't you dare find another guy bestfriend other than me. Arasso?" Then he embrace her again.
He felt her stiffen for a while but then eventually succumb to his embrace. It really feels nice to have her in his arms.
"Yaa Ahjussi I'm so hungry, can we eat now. I'm hungry and tired from work." She told him, her voice muffled in his chest.
"Common, I prepared your favorite. I'm just going to reheat them. You can set the table. " he get up and took her hand. He led her to the kitchen.
He look at her while heating the soup and meat he prepared. She looks tired but still radiantly beautiful.
" You can take the shower and sleep on my bed after eating. You really look tired. You are getting old ahjumma." He chuckled. He was just messing with her. She actually doesn't look her age. She looks so innocent especially without make up.
"Is it all right to crash here? I mean maybe one of your girls will suddenly barge here." She told him while taking a bite of the grilled meat. She smiles and it took him a moment to answer her because that simple smile took his breath away. She is so damn beautiful.
"You know I never allow just anyone to come to my place. It's only you or Jo Se Ho." He was Dong Wook's comedian friend.
" Mwo? Have you forgotten that time when Da Hae came here last time?" She told him with a serious face.
He almost forgot that incident. He and Ji Hyo were hanging out that night. He invited her to stay for the night and was about to take a shower when Da Hae unexpectedly visited him. He was too shocked but of course he is polite enough not to turn her away.
"Oppa, I'm sorry to barge here without asking first but I want to discuss something about our scene in the drama." She was looking at him with puppy eyes and was clinging in his arm. He really don't mind being close to Da Hae but it was a bonding night for him and Ji hyo. They haven't seen each other for months and he is really looking forward to spending that night with her.
Ji Hyo saw Da Hae and he saw that she was hurt that someone is interrupting their time together. He tried telling her that he didn't invite Da Hae and he doesn't have plans to spend time with her talking about script but Ji Hyo just excuse herself and Just left. He tried contacting her after that but she just ignores his text and calls. Until they both became so busy and he didn't get another chance to talk to her.
"Ji Hyo ssi you know I didn't invite her that time. I was looking forward that day knowing I could spend that night with you but you just left all of a sudden. Did you know that Da Hae almost got mad at me because I was so distraught and I sent her away?" Da Hae was shocked when he told her that he was really busy and that it' s probably not a good idea for her to come to his place especially at night. She looked like she wanted to slap him but just left without saying anything.
Ji Hyo got up and back hug him. He was too shocked to move. He was usually the one who initiate such actions so he was happy when she back hug him. His heart suddenly accelerated and he didn't dare move, afraid that Ji Hyo would release him.
"Mianhae Wookie, I don't know why I acted that way. It's just I was so looking forward to spending that night off with you and seeing her makes me insecure that you would prefer to be with her than me. After all I'm just your friend right." She was still hugging him when Dong Wook face her. He took her chin to make her look at him and he put his other arm around her waist.
"Ji Hyo, you know I woudn't trade you for anyone or anything in this world. You're the most important person to me, you know that right." He didn't know what compelled him but he suddenly kiss her lips softly.
