We got back to his apartment to collect my shirt. As soon as we stepped in, Gaho quickly ran to meet us.

Jiyong's mouth hung agape when the dog ran to me instead of him, "What? You like Chaerin better now? What about daddy?" He whined in jealousy.

"This brat is just trying to be cute 'cause he did something bad to me earlier" I bent down to pat his head. "Alright, since you're being unbearably adorable, I forgive you again" 

Jiyong chuckled, "If I didn't know any better, I'd mistake you two for being mother and child." he remarked as he headed towards the laundry room.

I froze at the implication of what he just said. I shook my head to get rid of the unnecessary thought.

Jiyong went back with my shirt, “It’s still a bit damp. My dryer is screwing up lately”

“It’s okay. I don't mind. Give it. I’ll go get changed” I held out my palm.

“No. Keep my shirt for a while. Just bring it back next time”

“And who said there’s going to be a next time?” I raised my brow with a smirk.

“I guess someone forgot our supposed date. You said yes at the hospital, remember?” He shifted his weight to one side with a sly smile on his face. So he wasn’t hallucinating that time?

“You basically harassed me into agreeing!” I protested with a pout.

“It worked didn’t it?” he winked.

“Psh!” I scoffed. “But isn’t this sort of a date already?”

He tilted his head back, “You think this is a date?...Boy, you were never treated right!” he shook his head as he formed an annoying grin.

I only rolled my eyes, “Fine. Show me how a date should be done then”

He widened his eyes probably because of my sudden boldness but it immediately softened in amusement, “Alright. When are you free?”

I paused for a moment to think, “Friday. Two weeks from now”

“Two weeks from now? That’s ages away!”

“I think your stab wound needs to be healed first”

“Oh yeah. I forgot I have one” he let out a soft chuckle. “But if it healed before that, can we reschedule it to an earlier date then?”

“Wow. You’re not too excited aren’t you? Well, we’ll see.” I formed a lopsided smile. I looked at my watch, “It’s really late. I really should get going”

“Alright I’ll walk you to your car” he offered. For a guy restricted with crutches, he sure wanted to walk a lot.

I opened the door to the drivers' seat and went in. I then started the engine and opened the window, "Thank you for the free dinner"

“Pleasure. That was actually one of the best dinners I've had in a while. Thank you for keeping me company.” He brought his face closer as he smiled. “Have a safe trip” he tapped the roof of my car lightly.

Seductive. No other word can perfectly describe what he just did. Heck, I think it described every move he made tonight.

“Y-Yeah…No problem…Have a safe trip to your h-house too” I was rendered speechless. The infatuation I have quickly developed for this man was undeniable.

He gave me the most charming smile as a response and my heart just...shut down.

At that moment I knew I was going to have to deal with Kwon Jiyong and all his perfection for probably a little while.
