He couldn't meet her for two days afterwards, since they had different schedules. He filmed the scenes at the Kingdom of Corea with the cast intended for that part of the universe, while Go Eun and the other cast for the Republic of Korea had a break.

Then it was his turn to have a break for one day because it was her turn to film her scene with Kim Kyung Nam and the detective team.

When he thought about Kim Kyung Nam......he's a bit worried. Would she prefer that guy than him?

All of the dilemmas swirling in his mind were completely absurd. He had to put extra effort for filming, because it made him forgot her. Just enough to clear his mind and work properly. Getting jealous with a guy who might be nothing but a colleague for her was entirely irrational.

And why was he so worked up because he told her she's beautiful, and that he never told the same thing to his other female leads? He was merely stating a fact. Was he wrong for being truthful?

Yes, you're wrong. It's obvious you're crushing for her. Going so hard, so soon, might push her away.

When this thought attacked his mind, he either fought it with furiously memorizing his script, or snacking, or goofing around with Do Hwan and Kim Young Ok ahjumma.

At home, he played mobile games until he fell asleep.

At the back of his mind, he berated her. "Go Eunni, what a dangerous girl you are. You disturb me even when you're not around."

He spent his day off dining at home with his parents and sister, then proceeded to play more mobile games.

He was correct in regards that she would pretend nothing special happened between them. She was all smiles when she greeted him, and the way he beamed made it obvious that he was really happy to meet her again. Three days felt like three years without seeing her.

They had to shoot the staring scene at the library that day. Lee Geon was at the Kingdom of Corea and Tae Eul was at the Republic of Korea.

As the crew got ready to film, he asked her, "How was your two days off?"

"It's really fun."

"Oh. What did you do?"

"I met my nephew and niece, then yesterday, I met with Inna unnie."

"The one in Dokkaebi?"

She nodded.

"That's nice. How often do you meet them?"

"Hem....with Inna unnie, quite often. With the ahjussideul, once or twice a year."

He counted in his mind. That made them met for six times already, on average, since the drama ended.

"How does it feel, to be friends with Gong Yoo sunbaenim?"

They were sitting side by side inside the library. She was holding a cup of tea.

When she looked up at him, she looked as if she was about to say, "Sunbae, I know what you're doing."

She seemed to think deeply for a while, before answering with a smile, "He's nice. He's like a really fussy big brother."
