Undelivered Truth [ SACHAENG ]

Diner [M]

Chaeyoung took a taxi and went to Sana's house. He nervously waited for her in the garage. Leaning on her car and blowing air from his mouth all the time.

Was he worried about meeting Sana's parents? Or nervous about Sana's reaction to his transformation?

He never knew.

Until he heard a few high heels clicks, Sana was walking to him wearing a short black dress, her hair was straight and she put a light make up. She looked alluring and beautiful that it made Chaeyoung stop blinking so he won't waste time and not look at the pretty girl in front of him.

Sana, on the other hand, was shocked. Chaeyoung looked taller than usual, maybe it's because of the insoles he put in his shoes or the black coat that made his body look fit, masculine and tall.

It was amazing how she noticed his details every time she steps closer until she stopped in front of him, his perfume filled the garage but Sana didn't complain. Perfumes are always her weakness.

"Good evening" he smiled "are you ready?"

"It's my game and I am more than ready"

Chaeyoung smiled as he opened the door for her "let's the acting begin from now" he muted a bit "baby"

Chills roamed Sana's body when she heard this word coming out of his mouth. She sat down calmly and watched him go to the driver seat where he revved up the engine and drove off to the restaurant.

~~

The Lounge restaurant is located on the top 24th floor of the Park Hyatt Seoul Hotel. Chaeyoung didn't know if he was fascinated by the hotel's lobby or by the stunning panoramic city view through the floor-to-ceiling windows that surround the restaurant. The Lounge serves authentic Korean and Western cuisine and an extensive selection of beverages.

Sana noticed her parents' presence, they chose to sit on a table next to a window that looks out to the busy city.

Sana was startled when Chaeyoung held her hand tightly "shall we go?" she hummed eyes focused on Chaeyoung that walked confidently to her parents.

He shook hands with her father and extended his hand to her mother that ignored him and took a sip of her wine instead. Chaeyoung remained calm he smiled at her before he pulled the chair out for Sana.

To say that Sana was nervous and anxious was an understatement. She is sitting next to a person she doesn't know truly that works as a security guy and above all this, he is her fake boyfriend.

"Shall we order food first?" Hinata stated.

"Sana help him choose a meal, he will probably struggle since the menu is in English" Sara chuckled before she drank some wine.

"Since my job demands staying up all night I read many English books" Chaeyoung smiled and looked down at the menu "I want pollo Frutti di mare since I love Italian food, how about you Sana?"

"Same" Sana replied shortly. She was so puzzled and confused to even concentrate on the menu.

"Speaking of books, what's your favorite English book Chayeoung?" Hinata asked.

Chaeyoung thought for a bit "The Sound and the Fury" he replied shortly after "Yes, it's a classic, but it's also a confusing one, packed with stream-of-consciousness narration that keeps changing place, time, and narrators on you" Chaeyoung's eyes sparkled with enthusiasm upon talking about the book.

Hinata smiled and nodded "I read this book before"

"I read a fun fact about it, originally, Faulkner intended to use different-colored inks to signify the different temporal spaces, so readers armed only with the black-and-white paperback... Amazing aren't he?"
