We decided not to cross the line (Season 2)

Episode 81. The one who’s too perfect for me

Take out the things in the box

and looked through them one by one.





'What is this person...?'





I looked at the things he had gathered

and fell into all sorts of thoughts.




Then, the sound of water from the bathroom stopped

and I heard the sound of a door opening.





When he found me in the guest room,

he stopped for a moment and said.






"Ms. Jeong-ah.

I'll unpack the luggage, so

leave it as it is."





I hesitated for a moment

and held out the small box to him.





"Ah!! That's my treasure box!!"





"You kept all of this?"





"Of course.

They're too precious to me."





He said, looking through the box one by one.





"This is a Polaroid taken at a rest stop,

and this is a Teruel Cathedral admission ticket."




He lifted a small ticket with his fingertips.





"And this is

the airplane ticket I used when I went to Spain."





He paused for a moment,

then took an envelope out from inside the box.

 


"And...

this is the love letter Ms. Jeong-ah wrote to me for the first time"





As if boasting about some great treasure,

he explained the items in the box one by one.





Inside it was also a necklace.





"But why didn't you give me this necklace?"





Hunji looked a little flustered.





"Was it supposed to be for another girlfriend

and ended up in here by mistake?"





I asked him teasingly.





"No... that's not it..."





Hunj i hesitated for a moment and said.






"That necklace was something Julien's mother

asked me to pass on to Ms. Jeong-ah."





I looked at him in surprise.





"When we went to Paris, Julien's mother said

she had found it among Julien's things

and that it seemed like something she had bought to give to Ms. Jeong-ah."





He hesitated for a moment, then continued.






"At the time...

Ms. Jeong-ah was so sad that I couldn't give it to you,

and after that I forgot too.

I'm sorry I gave it to you so late."





He looked at me with an apologetic expression.






"Hunj i..."






I couldn't easily think

of what to say.




He just looked at me without saying anything.






"Seeing this box

makes me think that, all this time..."




I paused for a moment.





"I regret being mean to Hunj i."






"Ms. Jeong-ah? That never happened."





He shook his head.





"I may have hurt Ms. Jeong-ah before...

but Ms. Jeong-ah was always kind to me."




He looked at me quietly.





"So don't worry."





I bit my lip for a moment at his words.





"Thank you... for remembering me like that..."





I went into the bedroom first.

Lying in bed, from the box just now

I recalled what I had seen.






More than I had imagined,

the fact that he treasured our memories

so deeply made me incredibly grateful.





At the same time,

that I had always doubted his feelings

and complained about them

made me feel sorry.






Then he opened the bedroom door and came in.





Not wanting him to notice my tears as they fell,

I turned over to the other side.





The harsh words and actions

from when we had broken up came back to me one by one.




I felt so sorry I couldn't say a word,

and my tears wouldn't stop.





"Huh? Semo Nemo!!"




Hunj i noticed me and came over.



"Why did you turn away?

Did... getting the necklace to you so late

hurt your feelings?"





"...No..."


"I think the person who had to deliver it, Hunj i,

would have hurt more..."





I took a breath and continued.





"Thank you for keeping it so carefully

and giving it to me..."





"If I think that Julien protected and comforted Ms. Jeong-ah

while I wasn't by your side,

I guess that's something to be grateful for in a way."





"How did you think of that?"





"Maybe because he wasn't by Ms. Jeong-ah's side,

I can think of it more generously?"




He gave a small laugh.

A little later, he said,




"I have a script to memorize today.

Go to sleep first, Ms. Jeong-ah.

Good night"





"Okay. I'll go to sleep first today."




To Hunj i, who had gone out to the living room,

I sent the feelings I couldn't put into words as a message.





[Hunj i...

you're the most perfect boyfriend to me.]





A little later

he replied.




[I think I made Ms. Jeong-ah really upset...

thanks for saying that.🥰]





Before falling asleep, I made up my mind once more.


'I'll never lose this person again.'






"Why do you keep asking me to meet you?"
