3 years later...

Walking on the beach barefoot with her sandals on her left hand, she sighs in relief- exhaling the salty yet fresh air, she glances on the white dress adorned on her with a huge smile on her face  she really loved the dress she bought. Deep in her thoughts, she realizes she's financially stable as ever but yet she frowns when she realizes she is still Mr. Kim's secretary, scenarios rush up to her head; ways on how to tell Mr. Kim that she wants to be one of his most trusted staffs/team instead of being his secretary.

Her phone rings, interrupting her dusk moment with the Hawaiian beach. She immediately rush to the small pockets of her dress to answer the call.

"Good evening Mr. Kim." She spoke as she accepts the call.

"Ms. Woo, I assume you're not in your room?" Mr. Kim asked. Three years since she graduated, she noticed Mr. Kim being nice towards her; although there are times that he's frustrated but still he has become better, she realized he was hot headed because the company was facing problems at that time and just a year ago got resolved.

"Yes sir." She answers softly.

"Meet me in my room in 30." He orders and immediately ends the call. Chaeya huffs as she walks off shore, thinking that her moments are over, afterall, they came to Hawaii for a business meeting and not for a vacation.

As she arrived at the hotel, she didn't bother to change her clothes in her room and decided to head straight to Mr. Kim's room, she took a glance at her tanned reflection and immediately after the elevators dings she rushed to Mr. Kim's suite. She pressed the doorbell and patiently waited for Mr. Kim to open.

"Come in." Mr. Kim said as he opens the door wider for her entrance.

"Bet you're having a good time." He comments as he scans her tanned form adorned in a cute white dress with her cream sandals that Nari gifted to her for her 26th birthday. She only nodded and smiled towards her boss. She proceeded to take a seat beside her boss and as she was to ask the same question her boss beat her to it.

"Brewed coffee?" Mr. Kim asked, Chaeya immediately stood from her area and headed towards the kitchen to make coffee but she noticed it's already made. They both move in silence. As Chaeya fills the cup with coffee, Mr. Kim proceeded to settle on the high chair across her from the other side of the bar-type counter.

"What's in my schedule?" Mr. Kim asked as he receives the coffee from Chaeya. Chaeya immediately rushed to scan her boss' schedule on her phone just to make sure.

"Mr. Wilson tomorrow 11 AM."

"and it's your last appointment." She stated.

"What do you want for dinner? Shall I cook?" Chaeya asked while tilting her head waiting for an answer.

"As much as I love your cooking, I think we should head out for dinner and celebrate for the success and hopefully for tomorrow's as well." Mr. Kim suggested as he glanced up from his ipad just to look at her.

"Where shall I call for reservations?" She asked.

"I already called and it's set." He replied nonchalantly, Chaeya silently choked on her coffee in surprise, she heaves a sigh in relief as she seems to be not in trouble? She lightly taps the marble counter, still not moving an inch from her standing and leaning position since she has arrived for coffee. She continues to sip her coffee feeling a one sided tension/awkwardness rising, she noticed Mr. Kim chilling on the other side, seems to be not affected by the tension. . . Well it is one sided indeed.

"Let's go?" Mr. Kim asked as he downs the rest of his coffee.

"Now?"

"Yes, now. Wait a minute." Mr. Kim said as he rushed towards his room. Chaeya hurriedly washed the dishes just to fill her mind and guess what awaits her. Mr. Kim settled behind her, seated at one of the stools in the island table waiting for Chaeya to finish, of course Chaeya didn't notice his return as she is consumed with her thoughts.
