Morning comes and Jiyong woke up with the sun rays on his face. He slowly reached for the other side of the bed only to find Chaerin gone. He panics as he remembers a time when this had happened. He reached for his shirt and quickly went down stairs.
“It can’t be. This is her house!” Jiyong thought.
To his relief, he finds Chaerin in the kitchen cooking breakfast. She noticed his presence and looked at him.
“Coffee?” She said with a smile.
Jiyong hurriedly to Chaerin’s side, pulled her and surprised her with a kiss. Laced his arms around her and places his forehead to hers with his eyes closed.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” Chaerin asked.
“Just want to make sure this isn’t a dream.”
He looked at her as if he’s memorizing the details on her face. Chaerin gave her eye smile which is Jiyong’s favorite and pinches his cheeks.
“Silly! Yes, this has been your hallucination all the time. Now, let go.”
“I won’t let you go this time, Hunchae.”
“Well you have to if you don’t want a burned breakfast.”
“Oof, yeah we don’t want that!”
Jiyong sat by the table as he watch Chaerin’s back. He smiles involuntarily. Happiness filled Jiyong’s heart. He never imagined he will be able to see this, not in this life time. Having coffee in Japan with the woman he cherishes the most cooking him breakfast.
Couple of minutes passed, Chaerin is now serving food at the table. She notices how Jiyong looked at her.
“Someone look cheesy.” Chaerin teased with a red tint on her cheek.
“Are we going out today?” Jiyong asked.
“hmm. Well, where do you wanna go?”
“I don’t know actually. You’ve been here more than a dozen of times. Surprise me.”
Jiyong picked up a fork while smiling like a kid. She just can’t help but to chuckle with his gestures.
“Eat up, we have a long day!”
She pushes the plate towards Jiyong, signaling to start eating. He stared down the plate and started eating. After a couple of bites, Jiyong felt like there was a lump stuck on his throat and his sight is getting blurry. He paused, stood up and looked outside the window. Chaerin wondered whys Jiyong acting that way.
“Hey, what’s wrong?”
Her question was paid with silence. Jiyong stood still staring outside and heavily breathing.
“Is it too salty?”
Jiyong looked at her with a very serene face.
“I love you.”
Chaerin stayed rooted to where she was standing. He walked closer to her and held her hand. She held his cheeks and wiped his tears with her thumb.
“I missed you…so bad. I’m sorry for treating you cold. Please know that that was the wall I built because don’t want to be hurt again.”
Jiyong teared her hand away from his face and kissed the back of it.
“No. Never again…I promise.”

“h-hello?”
“Why are you sleeping?”
“And why don’t you ever sleep? Hyung, please tell me you are not in Japan.”
Seungri answered the phone call half asleep.
“I’m not. I am in Madrid doing some chores Chaerin asked me to do and you are there sleeping like a baby. Aren’t you worried with her at all?”
“Ugh, again with this conversation. Hyung, she’s fine! For sure she’s now getting laid. haha”
“What??! She must’ve been...”
“Hyung! Chill the F down, okay? We both know how determined Chaerin with her plans, trust her okay? Wow, it sounded like Chaerin’s our god. Ha!”
“I really don’t like this.”
“The weekends almost over, Hyung. Everything will be back in order. No worries! Now, will you let me go back to sleep? Pretty pleaseee?”
Seungri begs as the older one huffs some air and just hang up the phone.
“No goodnight sleep tight? Well, someone’s pissed.”
-----------------------
Chaerin and Jiyong toured the Tokyo streets and only stopped for little snack of ice cream. Jiyong noticed something about Chaerin that day.
“No phone calls? No emails?”
“Nope! I don’t do CEO stuff on Sunday. Work life balance!”Chaerin smiles as she scoop her ice cream.
“whoa, I’m glad you know that! Being an owner of that big group of companies sure is hard.”
“Ugh you said it. Crazy employees, demanding clients and department drama are handful. Good thing I have Seunghyun and Seungri’s help. Though, sometimes, they are the ones who stir the pot.”
“Oh they do that?”
“A lot! But as per them, it's called facing the problem which causes MUCH MORE problems!”
“So no communication every Sunday? What if they call you?”
“I just ignore it. Totally. Sometimes if Seungri is really annoying me, which is all the time, I block his number and from every means of communication. Instagram, viber, whatsapp… if I could block him sending a bird I could!”
“Haha! He could be a pain in the ass really.”
They continued their Tokyo tour. It was evident with Jiyong’s laugh and smile that he was having a blast. Later that day, they decided to end the day with a romantic dinner. Fine wine, steak and jazz music. Chaerin excuses herself to the ladies room. She whipped her phone out and dialed a number.
“Seunghyunnie?”
“Chaerin! Why haven’t you been…”
“Sorry. I’ve been busy.”
“Busy with what?”
“Phase two is happening now.” Chaerin said with a mischievous smile.
