The Great Seducer (Rewrite)

Chapter 23

"Are you sure that you're okay if Taehee works for me?", Shihyun asks Sooji for a hundreth time again.

"Why? Is there any reason why I cant believe you?"

"Of course not..."

"Kwon Shihyun...listen to me...this time I believe you.. I really do...that there's nothing going on between you and Taehee....except work...so...dont let me down okay?"

"Yes mam!"

"So go now...", she pushes him out of her apartment. It's been two days. Eventough she's secretly happy he's here. She cant let him neglected his job and abandon his own apartment. So tonight, she forces him to go home.

"Are you really okay? You still looks unhealthy...", Shihyun still worried to leave her alone in her apartment.

"I am fine....I havent fully recovered yet...but I am fine..."

"Really? I can cancel the meeting tomorrow..."

"Yaaa! Dont you dare make me as an excuse to skip work again!", Sooji glares at him.

"Ok fine...", Shihyun leaves begrudgingly.

"Wait..."

"What?"

"You forget something...", Sooji suddenly gives him a peck on the lips. Shihyun just staring at her. Being the receiving end of Sooji's affection still feels unreal. "Now go...dont come back before you make a lot of money Mister!", Sooji smiles teased him. "Bye..."

Sooji's back to her bed and cant help but start thinking about Taehee. Is she really okay with Shihyun and Taehee's situation right now? No, she's not. Everything that related to Taehee is always make her nervous. How could she not? Years ago, Taehee came out of nowhere and ruin the friendship that she build with Sejoo and Shihyun long before, she break them apart.

============

Shihyun cant sleep. He kept thinking about Sooji, is she alright? If he called her again for the fifth times, he's pretty sure she wont pick up. Does he need to ask her to move in here? She'll definitely refuse. Or what if he just rent a place beside her apartment room. It'll be so much easier right? But he just moved here. Shihyun sighs. He knows sleep wont come even if he tried to. So instead of going back to bed, Shihyun takes a canvas and starts to paint.

========

"Morning pretty...."

"Good morning to you too...", Sooji answered.

Shihyun smiles, because he can feel her smiling through her answer. "Do you already have a breakfast?"

"Ani...I just woke up"

"Yaa..should I come to make you a breakfast?"

"It's too early too eat breakfast...beside you're getting ready to the office right?"

"Yeah..but I can stop by.."

"Shihyun ah...I am 26 years old...I am pretty sure I can find a food to eat without you cooking me...", she cant say she'll make her own breakfast, because God help her, she really cant.

"But not cereal...find a real food...", how could he read her mind?

"Cereals is a real food...", Sooji argues.

"I will really stop by.."

"Okaay...I'll find a real food...there's a restaurant across the street that serves REAL breakfast..."

"Good..."

"Good luck for your meeting..."

"Love you...", Shihyun says. But the other lines geting silent. "Dont you want to say it back??"
