Married

20. Teamwork

(Hongbin's POV)

Mr. Jung Taekwoon himself talked to me as he would talk to his dearest friend. He thanked me for the role I played in him staying alive issue... He then looked at me with a sad face...

- I know you liked Hyuk for a long time. I'm sorry if I took him away from you.

- We are just colleagues, Mr. Jung.

- I really hope you two would get along as usual... I never thought about him as anything other than a younger brother but... these years...

- Mr. Jung, you don't need to apologize for nothing.

- Would you... keep taking good care of Wonsik?

- Eh?

- Please... Just take care of him, he needs to have someone by his side, you are great at it.

- I thought you hated him.

- Yes. That's why I can't worry about him anymore. But someone should. None deserves to be alone.

He worries me ever since he regained his lost memories.

Last night, I was on top of him and filling him with kisses and touching him and then suddenly

- Ah... ngh... n... sik... Wonsik!

I stopped and looked as his eyes but he looked at me and smiled while caressing my hair, he seemed surprised by my sudden pause

- Is something wrong?

- N-no...

He didn't notice he said his name. Luckily it was only that time, I filled him with my love and I know he was answering to my touch, to ME. But it still hurt... If Hongbin was right... was I just a replacement for Kim Wonsik?

So when I went to see him in his office as I saw him focusing only on his work, I decided to lay a kiss on his lips before leaving. His eyes smiled at me but I felt he was different... And of course that person had to come in...

I will be going to check on our other business in our "old home" and to check on our investments so I would be gone for the weekend. I left worried because it meant they would be together while I was gone.

- Will you be able to take care of it all by yourself? - Hyuk asked me.

- Of course, Hyukkie, don't worry. Send my greetings to the neighbours and come back safe to me. - I said confident and patting his shoulder.

I went to visit Mr. Yang by myself... If we wanted to expand our company to do this kind of business we needed the best and he had more experience in this field than anyone. But Kim Wonsik was avoiding confrontation since Yang hated guys with the reputation Wonsik had. "Weak minded guys" he called them "Losers with no future". I have to prove him wrong.

- Oh come on, Mr. Yang, I'm sure a business man of your height can recognize a good deal when he sees it...

I could see the way he followed me with his eyes as I walked around him...

- I am no Kim Wonsik, I can assure you I have enough... experience... I'm sure someone like you... can totally notice that... There is nothing that we can't do... together...

I didn't want to give the old man time to hesitate so I just handled him the contract for him to sign it.

- Of course someone as experienced as you would not let go of such a convenient deal... for both parts involved... - I said as I left the pen on his hand and walked away. (1...2...3)

I turned back as he called me.

When I left that man's office I felt so tired even though I hadn't really done much. I went to the board and told them this was all Wonsik's idea so he had to be in charge of the project but since Mr.Yang only trusted me...

- Then I guess we'll have to work in this together.

And truth was... we were a great team... We were new on this field but we built a good team among our employees so our business idea didn't flop from the start. In fact we had a great start.

We kept competing on who did best but we both gave our best... Two pieces that fitted perfectly. The winning combination, they called us from that day on.

- We really are a perfect match.- he jokingly said as I tried to hit him in the head.

- Honestly, you have great ideas, I don't know why you are so lazy, you could have done this without my help but no, you just can't do anything on your own...

- I am useless without you... - he said as he smiled at me

- Don't say it like that – I said as I felt my cheeks burning.

- We are the perfect team... Taekwoon, let's get married...

- Are you kidding me?! – I said as I walked away from him – No way. One thing is working together but... us married? We just got divorced and now you want us to...

- Taekwoon...

- What is it? You want my shares? Is that it? You want to be the President again or

- No. Ugh, is it so hard to believe that I really love you?

- Kim Wonsik, I know you've grown... as a person and as a worker but... you really suck as a husband. Let's not ruin this, okay? I'm just starting to like you as a co-worker here.

- Then give me back my pencil – he said as he tried to reach the pencil in my desk

- No~ - I said blocking his way.

Somehow we both crashed into each other and then we were laughing and suddenly his face was so close to me...

- Taekwoon... I'll show you... you will fall for me again. – He winked at me and then walked to the door.

- Kim Wonsik, I am not interested. Just give up.

He left my office. As he closed the door I sat in the floor. My heart was skipping a beat. I didn't want to feel this way...
