Fly You To The Moon

You told me to forget you. You hoped that I forgot you, right? I'm sorry, I want to forget you, but I couldn't do it
-The Moon That Embraces The Sun-

'I'm sorry, again, who would I be working with?' Park Dong Ja wanted to make sure he hasn't heard it wrong the first time round. Sitting with the director of the university and his secretary, Dong Ja was ask to represent the university in regards to the interview that will be held next month to promote the school.

'Is there any problem? We are extremely excited to have Miss Song Eun Suk to be your partner during the interview.' Director Han announced enthusiastically with a loud thunderous roaring laugh.

Dong Ja went mute since he can't disclose his personal past with Eun Suk, he just remained stone like a fool. 'Why can't I just do the interview myself instead of pairing me with other people? I mean I had appeared in Discovery Channel too.' Dong Ja found the most acceptable reason he could think of.

'The majority audience recognized Song Eun Suk more than you.' Director Han sputtered. When he realized he might have offended Dong Ja, the director instantly soothes Dong Ja with appeasing words, 'What I am trying to say was, Song Eun Suk will cooperate well with you, she will guide you since she is more experienced in this field.'

'I don't need her guidance.' Dong Ja slammed himself to the backrest of the sofa he was sitting at, putting a sign that it was the end of the discussion.

'Park Dong Ja!' Director Han got impatient with him by raising his voice, 'we have paid Song Eun Suk, contract is signed, there's no way we can decline this deal unless you want to pay the penalty? It wasn't a small sum, son!' Director Han bang the table to bring his authority back. Finishing his last piece, Director Han stood up and left the room, his secretary has no choice but the follow her boss. She nods her head awkwardly at Dong Ja and left.

Dong Ja throws a disbelief face and cursed. He started to imagine the worst thing that could happen during their time together, just picturing her beside him has caused his goosebumps to surface. He took out his phone and press for Tony's number.

'Lee Jung Ho? Where are you? Let's go for a drink.' Dong Ja scratch his head impatiently.

'Hyong, you have any idea what time is it now?' Tony thought Dong Ja was joking with him.

'Ah si-bal, you will not believe what misfortunate thing is happening to me now.' Dong Ja gritted his teeth after finishing his line.

'Look, I'm outside your workplace now, I have only thirty minutes to spare.'

'What? What are you doing here?' Dong Ja raised his eyebrow, climbing up from the sofa and charged right out of the Director's office, 'don't move, I'm coming.' Dong Ja warned him.

Dong Ja run like he mean it, like the kind of run that will give you muscle cramp because you haven't had any warm up.

When Tony spotted Dong Ja, he was already walking with difficulty, limping as he move. Tony had to lowered his sunglasses to catch a clearer view at Dong Ja. 'Hey, you look pathetic, what happen?'

'Cra-cramp, nevermind,' Dong Ja was gasping for air as he reached for Tony's shoulder for support, whom are feeling bothered when some students are watching them and whispering to each other.

'Ya, Park Dong Ja, remove your hands away from me. What's wrong with you?' He squatted down to where Dong Ja was recovering his stiffened leg.

'I can't believe it, they are asking Song Eun Suk to pair with me for an interview.' With agonizing face, Dong Ja doesn't know he was more bothered with his leg or Eun Suk right now.
