"You need to take care of your health alright? Especially since this drama would consume a lot of your time." Seongwu says while shaking his head. He knows about what was between Jihoon and I. He just won't mention it since he also knows that my mood could change quickly.

"You should apply it to yourself to. Helloooo, Seongwu, we're acting in this drama together. And you say those kind of things as if you're not gonna be busy with shooting this drama." He laughs as a response as we both sip from our milkshake.

"First shooting would be tomorrow right? From 6 AM to 9 PM?" I nod, already feeling exhausted just from listening to when would the filming start and end.

Don't get me wrong. I love acting, I love my work, it's just that we get tired too.

"Want help with practicing the lines tonight?" Seongwu offers. I grin at him.

"I'm down." Well we're both in this drama so it would really benefit both of us.

Seongwu looks at his wrist watch. "It's 6 PM. I have something on my schedule at 6:30 PM, I almost forgot. I'll go straight to your house after this one so we could practice immediately."

"Bring chips." I giggle, it's against our diet as an actor and actress but we still do it anyways. He slowly nods with a big smile on his face.

"Let's go, I'll take you home." I stand up from my seat and shake my hand signalling that he doesn't need to.

"You'll be late from your schedule. I'm totally fine with grabbing a taxi on my way home." He looks at his wrist watch again. He nods, saying
"Okay. Just text me when you get home. Stay safe." I continuously shake my head, with my hand, motioning him to go already.

The door chimes are heard from his exit. There aren't much people at this cafe so it won't be a problem for us. After a few minutes, I decide to go home through a taxi.

I prepare the thick compiled papers on the table of my living room. I had the glasses ready since obviously we're gonna have a drink with the chips.

I hear a ring coming from the door, immediately I open it since I already know who it would be.

He smiles as he sees me, raising the paper bag he's currently holding. "Chips!" I cried out. I took it from his hand, then went straight to the table. "Wow you welcomed the chips to your house instead of me."

His hands are crossed against his chest and acts like he's whining. I laugh at him, and it didn't take even 3 secs for me to laugh too. Oh, how much I feel young like a kid with him.

He sits beside me as I open the bag of chips. I point him the compiled papers on the table and he reaches out to it, reading what's written on each paper while I'm just casually placing the chips on the plate.

"보고싶어..." He suddenly blurts out. I widen my eyes, looking back at him.

(TRANS: I miss you.)

"...Haerin-ah." I smirk. I already memorised a few lines before he came. He's reading the script, meaning he's seeing if I know the next line.

"Well I don't. I never did after all you did to me." I can quickly get into the mood when acting, pretty impressive alright.

"I have my reason. Just please listen to me—" Seongwu puts down the script. He's getting more expressive with the lines.

"YOO TAEJIN! I'M TIRED OF ALL YOUR EXCUSES. I'M ALREADY HAPPY ALL ALONE—" He quickly pulls me to him by the arms.

I look at him, letting my eyes observe each defined feature of his on his face.

He cups both of my cheeks, locking his eyes with mine. "Kate." His face slowly moves closer to mine. I don't know what to do, I can't pull away, my body's stopping me. There is a kissing scene in this part but this was close to the ending. I never knew we would also be practicing this part.

A loud door ring made us turn our heads. Seongwu puts his hands down and away from my face. Should I be happy the door rang or should I be disappointed?

I stand up to get the door.

Opening it, a surprise greets me. I try my best not to smile weakly. He's back.
