Tell me when you're ready » Chae Hyungwon

Song of the chapter
You & me - James TW

The next morning a loud alarm wakes me up.

I get out of bed half asleep looking around me, it still makes me feel kind of awkward that Hyungwon wants to try it with me but doesn't want to sleep in the same bed with me.

But I let that thought fly away soon enough.

"Can Faith please come to mr. Chae's office?" I hear a female voice through the speaker in my room.

I kind of hesitate if I should go, will he be the same as yesterday, or will the devil come out of him again?

I pray for the best as I make the decision to go to his office.

I got inside a comfortable enough outfit but still fancy.

On my way to his office I tie up my hair in a ponytail.

I knock two times before opening the huge office door.

"You wanted to speak to me?" I ask and peek my head through the door.

"Yes, come in" He doesn't look up from his computer, I get inside the office and close the door quietly behind me.

The vibe is so awkward that I am almost tip toeing to his desk.

"I want you to be my assistant again, meaning you need to wake up every morning at 7.30 from now on" Hyungwon says now looking at me over his glasses.

Oh hell no, not again.

"What will I get for it?" I say regretting those words.

But the answer surprised me.

"Every time when there is a business meeting you will be my date, and the day after you will get the chance to do anything with me, think of dates like lunch or walking through the park. See this as a chance to get close again" Hyungwon says formally.

I nod slowly.

"So I can also just take you to a different city?" I ask and he nods.

"Everything, as long as it won't take us a whole day" He says.

"Alright, when do I start?" I ask him and he look inside of his computer.

"The next business meeting is in two days, that will be your first day, the business meeting is in my mansion so that automatically is easier for you I predict, then we will go on a date in three days, are you okay with that?" Hyungwon asks, again with a formal voice.

"Yes, that is fine by me. May I leave now?" I ask and he nods.

"You want to go to the chefs huh?" Hyungwon asks and I smile.

"Yeah, I missed them" I say and he signs me to go.

I quickly make my way out of his office to go to Kihyun, Jooheon and Changkyun.

- HYUNGWON -

I am not sure if my whole idea is working out.

It's way harder than I imagined.

I mean I would lie if I said I didn't missed her with my whole heart.

She means the world to me.

But my feelings are hard to take care of.

I don't know if it will work out as in my dreams but I will fight for her this time, because loosing her was the worst.

Suddenly the door opens and Shownu walks in without asking.

"Mr. Chae.. I know you don't like what I'm about to say but.."

"What is it Shownu?" I ask kind of mean.

"I don't think you will be able to get this relationship stronger with Faith, she is too good for you, you know you will fuck up anyway" He says.

I try my best to stay calm after those words.

"We will find a way, don't worry about her" I say.

"I'm actually worried about you Hyungwon, you might loose your reputation if you go any further with her, I mean.. when the mafia words knows you have a fucking kid with her! Imagine if your parents find out.. They'll end you" Shownu says and I know that he's right.

"Why did you think I let her leave me in the first place, I didn't see my child grew up until now, I didn't even know what she looked like! But Faith is worth my reputation, it took my 6 years to find out about that, now let me just figure this out myself" I say, getting mad.

"I know, I just don't think it will work out, I just wanted to warn you" Shownu says and I clear my throat.

"thanks Shownu, But I think I'm good, We will find a way to keep it a secret until the time is right to tell the world about it, when me and Faith have a stronger relationship" I say silently.

"You're right, I'm sorry for getting between you two" Shownu says.

"I know you do it for me, thanks" I say and he smiles.

"What are you doing tonight?" Shownu asks.

"Nothing, why?" I ask

"Soju?" He smirks

"I'm in" I smirk too.

"Will we ask Wonho too?" He asks and I nod.

- Faith -

That night I am about to go to sleep after a long night of talking with Kihyun, Jooheon and Changkyun.

"Goodnight all of you, I really enjoyed today" I say and they all hug me.

"I missed you a lot Faith" Changkyun says.

"Yeah same for me" Kihyun says.

"And me" Jooheon then says.

"Well.. goodnight" I say.

I want to walk out of the kitchen but as soon as I want to open the door it gets opened by Hyungwon.

We look at each other for a moment.

"Excuse me, I wanted to grab a couple bottles of soju" He says.

"Right" I quickly get out of his way.

"Actually.." He says as he opens the refrigerator.

"Do you guys want to join us?" He asks.
