"Unni, what are we doing here?" I ask, looking out the window at the nice restaurant outside. Sumi looks over at me but only gives a tense smile while she parks her car.
"Jihyun, I need a very important favor. If I were in some kind of trouble, would you help me out?"
"I suppose, it depends on the kind of trouble. If it's something shady then I can't help."
"I have someone I want you to meet, he's inside there waiting for us. It's not shady, I promise," she gets out the car and I follow after her, switching to my boy voice since we're now outside.
"Why are you being so vague about things? What's your deal with that person?"
"I kind of made a deal with them but they wouldn't leave me alone about it so I had no time to actually fulfil it."
"You're making deals with the mafia?!" I whisper-yell and Sumi looks shocked but slaps a hand over my mouth.
"No, pabo! I'm not making deals with the mafia, that person is just an old boss of mine that won't leave me alone. Nothing shady, I already told you."
"What do I need to be here for then? They sound pushy, you're not going to try getting them to hire me, are you?"
"No, look, just follow my lead."
"If you say so," I shrug and open the door for Sumi. We both head inside and Sumi goes to talk to the person behind the podium in front of us if her boss has already arrived. She waves me over and we follow after the really tall man to a table where a rather young looking man is sitting. He's quite good-looking, with his black hair all slicked back like a sexy secret agent movie character or something.
Sumi nudges my foot and smiles at him, sitting down. "Sorry we took so long, were you waiting long?"
I sit down as well after bowing politely to the man, who seems to be smiling somewhat bitterly. I must say, I wasn't expecting her old boss to look like this dapper young fellow. Wow he's one handsome devil.
Calm down, raging hormones. This is Sumi's old boss, be respectful. Think about all the beautiful men you already have waiting at the dorm for you to come back, the wonderful men in your life that bring sun to your cloudy days. And Sehun.
"This is Kal Jihyun, a friend of one of my clients. Jihyun, this is Kae Taewon, my old boss," Sumi introduces us. I figure I must have missed part of the previous conversation because I haven't heard his voice since my own thoughts had been so loud. I bet he's got a deep voice, like Chanyeol.
"It's nice to meet you," he gives me a small smile.
I WAS RIGHT!!
"Likewise," I give another slight bow. We all make small talk and order our meals, but it isn't until after our food comes that I realize that there doesn't seem to be clues as to why the atmosphere is so awkward. I couldn't at all tell what their relationship was or what this meeting required my presence for.
That is, until I raised my cup of water to my lips.
"So, how long have you two been dating?" Taewon asked suddenly, causing me to accidentally spit out my water.
It didn't spray everywhere, it just dribbled out a bit, onto my lap and the table. I blushed and grabbed my napkin, wiping everything dry as quickly as I could. Taewon and Sumi were both shocked by my reaction, but Sumi began to chuckle, whereas Taewon seemed genuinely concerned for my wellbeing.
"Noona, that's not funny," I whined.
"I'm sorry, that was pretty sudden. I guess you aren't dating? Are you okay, Jihyun-ssi?"
"I'm fine, thank you. No, we're not dating."
"Oh, I see," Taewon looks over to Sumi and I look over as well, since it seemed she has something to explain.
"Jihyun doesn't know yet," Sumi leans over and whispers something to Taewon, who looks dejected for a moment but nods in defeat anyway.
"I see, so that's it, huh?" he turns his attention to me. "You're quite lucky."
"Why do you say that?" I ask, once again drinking my water.
"Oh uh," Sumi gives him a warning look and he clears his throat. "You'll understand soon enough."
_I haven't updated in 163 years so here you go! I'm sorry, I just don't have much time to get online anymore. But whenever I do, this is the first place I come to work on my stories bit by bit. It's actually kind of hard writing for this one since I don't really know how to put into words what I can see in my mind. I don't know, you guys probably understand what I mean. I hope you have all been well. I think I'm going to make things more dramatic and romantic soon, so keep a look out for that stuff. And now,
BAIIIIII!!
