We decided not to cross the line (Season 2)

Episode 77. Shocked Hunji

After leaving the short meeting with Hunji

I was on my way home.




Then I got a message from him.





[If it rains today, filming can end early.

Then let’s go home and have dinner together!!

Please let it rain, let it rain~~~🙏]





[Wow!! Really?

Then tonight, I’m the chef!!

Please, it really has to rain...🥹]




On the way home, I stopped by the mart

to buy groceries and went in.




When Hunji’s older brother and his friend came over

I was going to try pasta and gambas again,

the ones I’d miserably failed at before.



And I added a steak, too.






Pasta was one of the dishes I was good at.

To be more honest,

pasta was the only dish I could make with confidence.




Even after I got home, I kept looking up at the sky.

Dark clouds rolled in as if it were about to rain




"Awesome!! I think it’s going to rain!!"




I got excited and started cooking.

As if by magic, rain really did start pattering down.




The raindrops started falling

and not long after,

I got a message from Hunji.




[Leaving the set now!!

I think I can be there within an hour.

Yay!!!!!!]





Even through the message,

his excitement came through clearly.




Just as the meal was nearly finished,

an alert rang saying a car had entered the parking lot.




Before he came in,

I quickly finished setting the table.




I went out to the front door

and waited, watching the elevator.






"Surprise!!"





"Ah!! You startled me.

Why are you waiting out here?"






"Hurry and come in.

I just finished cooking."





Hunji stared at the dishes on the table

for a long moment, unable to close his mouth.





"You finished all that in the time it took me to get here?

Or did you order delivery?"





"I told you I was going to be the chef for dinner tonight.

The day your friend and your brother came over, I was nervous,

so I messed up.

Pasta is the only dish I’m really confident in..."





"I’m going to wash my hands."





I was secretly looking forward to seeing

what kind of reaction he’d have after eating.





"See?

Invite your brother and your friend again sometime.





Then I’ll really show what I can do!"

But I quickly changed my mind.





"No.

Then I’d end up being called a princess again.
 
I take back the invite."





After hearing me out,




Hunji started laughing loudly.

When our dinner for two was over,

Hunji was cleaning up the table.





That was when my phone on the table

started ringing.





"Jung-ah. It’s ringing.

Wonhee... oppa?"





He said it again.

"Oppa?"





He tilted his head

and handed me the phone.




"You had an oppa, Jung-ah?




You only have an unnie, don’t you?"




"Ah... It’s Wonhee oppa..."

Without realizing it, I glanced at his expression




and took the phone, heading to the bedroom.

"Why are you going into the bedroom





instead of answering here?"




"Okay. Then I’ll answer here.

Hunji, hurry and put the dishes in the dishwasher."





I turned my back to Hunji and answered the phone.

"Hello?"





"Jung-ah."

"Yeah?"




"Have you eaten dinner?"





"I just did.





What about you, oppa?"




"I’m working overtime today."





"You should eat dinner first."





"I’m going to finish up quickly and eat on my way home.

By the way, did Mom come looking for you again?"





"Yeah, that’s right.





She came to the café the day after I met you, oppa.




Your mom is still so nice."

Across from me, Hunji’s hand, which was putting dishes into the dishwasher, froze for a moment.

I pretended not to notice and turned my head away.





"Your mom still likes you, doesn’t she?

After she came back from the café that day,

she was really excited."




"I was really happy to see her too.

Honestly, I was happier to see your mom than you, oppa?"




"Jung-ah.




Do you have plans this Friday evening?"

"This Friday? No, I’m free.

Why?"





"I want to have dinner with you."

"Ah~ Okay. Let’s do that."





At that moment,

I remembered the pledge





that Hunji had written and signed.

[2. If I end up having coffee or a meal alone with someone of the opposite sex,





    I will share the schedule and location with Park Hunji in advance.]





"Wait, oppa!!"




I glanced at Hunji.

"I need to check something, so

I’ll tell you exactly tomorrow.



It should be possible."

"Then tell me exactly tomorrow.

I’ll book somewhere decent nearby."




"Yeah. Okay.




Finish up quickly,





and eat dinner on your way in.

Bye~"

"Ah. You scared me.





What are you doing here?

Did you put everything in the dishwasher?"





Hunji was right beside me

and had heard the whole call.

"Who was that on the phone just now?

You’re really close, aren’t you?"





"Ah... well...

my first love..."

"What?"





"My first love oppa.

My first boyfriend."





In an instant,

the cup slipped from Hunji’s hand.





Clang—

The sound of the cup hitting the floor





echoed especially loudly.





"Hunji. Are you okay?"

He stumbled





and went to sit on the sofa.

"I... I... I can’t calm down right now."



"Should I get you some water?"



"Water... some water..."

I quickly brought him a glass of water.





He gulped it down.





Even after emptying the glass in one go, he couldn’t put it down.

"Was that such a shock?




Anyone would think you’d witnessed an affair.ㅎ"





When I asked with a laugh,




he stared at me for a long time.





I also watched his expression.

I couldn’t tell at all whether he was joking or serious.

"Hunji.





This Friday, I’ll have dinner with Wonhee oppa

and come back.




Okay?"

He gave no answer.




I went on as if nothing was wrong.

"Oh, and Hunji.





Miguel’s going back to Spain this weekend.

You should start getting ready to go home too."

Only then did Hunji speak.

"Can’t you see I’m shocked right now?




Do you really have to bring that up at a time like this?"

"Bring what up?





It’s not even a big deal...

I mean, I’m going to your house, so what..."

"Actually... I wanted to talk about that a little.





But after hearing you on the phone with Wonhee oppa,




I made up my mind completely."

"About what?"





I asked him with a face full of curiosity.

"I’m going to come here every day now."

I asked him again, looking puzzled.





"Here? To here?

Our house?"

I was so shocked





I couldn’t close my mouth.





"Yes!! Let’s do that!!"

I was on my way home.





Then I got a message from him.





[If it rains today, filming can end early.

Then let’s go home and have dinner together!!




Please let it rain, let it rain~~~🙏]

[Wow!! Really?




Then tonight, I’m the chef!!

Please, it really has to rain...🥹]





On the way home, I stopped by the mart
