Episode 3
: perhaps
-Did we ever love each other?
-Was it just a fleeting relationship?.
Yesterday was probably the hardest day. I didn't wait for the ocean the next day. Maybe it was because the mother and daughter looked so happy, or maybe it was because the ocean didn't seem to care about me that I felt bad, but I didn't want to know. I felt like knowing more would ruin that day and the refreshing morning that was so different.
Spring, perhaps the best season for Yoongi. They got married in April, when the cold winds are fading away and the spring breeze is blowing. So, we decided on April 12th, a little later than Yoongi's birthday.
"Eight days left."
Today is April 4th.
February felt like it flew by. March, perhaps, was so hectic that I didn't even get to properly celebrate my birthday. Now, April has arrived. On that day, when the cherry blossoms are turning pink, I head to work as usual. I drive alone, arrive at the office about ten minutes away, find my seat, and a few minutes later, I'm off to a meeting.
How many minutes have passed since I left for the meeting?
The elevator doors opened, the sound of heels echoed, and she passed through several departments, then entered the design department and stood before an empty desk. A marketing employee nearby addressed her with a respectful title.
"Uh- Hello, Director!"
"No, he's not here. Did he go to a design department meeting?"
"I just went into a new product design meeting."
"Oh, really? Okay. Thanks for your hard work."
"Yes, sir."
I left something on the desk, and out of curiosity, the employee watched the director clack his shoes again as he walked up to the 9th floor. He was startled by something unexpected on the desk, then looked at the desk's owner and, seemingly understanding, returned to his seat.
"Is this a recent design?"
"Ah...yes. Just being humble..."
"Isn't this cool? It has two cameras, it's quite innovative."
"I'll take this one first. There's no problem taking another one, right?"
"...But please don't tell me I designed it..."
"Um... why?"
"...Just like that."
I remember that time, the first time I saw the chairman. He treated me with a lot of disdain. As an employee, I was caught on a home date with Bada. He looked shocked, asked me questions at a rapid-fire pace, and then proceeded to harass me. Bada protected me. I realized, to my bones, that strength is everything.
'When will we start talking about rank?'
'He's the one I love, Dad.'
"Dad, you can't change my love."
They're struggling with old feelings. Perhaps they're both reminiscing. Spring must have bloomed in their hearts. It's just that it bloomed later than others.
You, who allowed me to marry you, I truly loved you. When I heard the meeting was over, I was gathering up my things when the team leader tapped me.
"Can you give me the rest of the designs?"
" yes? "
"It's exactly the style the chairman likes, so let's just put it out there and see."
"...Oh, yes."
After giving away all seven designs and slightly reducing his luggage, Yoongi walked to his desk. He felt a peek from beside him. What was it? He stopped trying to push up his glasses and walked a little faster.
On the desk was a thermos containing the coffee I'd given Bada. He must have finished it, but what had he put in it? It was quite heavy. There was a Post-it note stuck underneath.
He seemed to blush at the sight of the words written on the yellow Post-it note.
'I'm sorry I couldn't pay attention to you yesterday, Yoongi.
I drink a lot of coffee, but when I drink a lot of coffee,
I boiled some yulmu tea because it's not good for your health.'
"It's cute."
P.S. It's hot, so if you get burned, it's not my fault - Kim Sea

"I wonder if you've confirmed it."
I hope you were excited.
