The essence of care

The next day

06:13 AM

김여주

Ugh...

민윤기 image

민윤기

did you sleep well?

김여주

Aaaargh!!! Why are you... here, sir...?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Hmm... yesterday you were sleeping here, so I was planning to go sleep somewhere else, but you stopped me, so I slept here too~ lol

김여주

No... you mean... I caught you, sir?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Yeah! They were grabbing me and telling me not to go.

김여주

...Me?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Yeah, haha. So I just lay down next to you, but you hugged me so I couldn't sleep well.

김여주

Ah... sorry. You must be tired.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Hmm... since you're the reason I'm tired, I guess you just need to fill that void.

김여주

What? How?

민윤기 image

민윤기

This time, you just have to put me to sleep. Is there any other way?

김여주

You're saying I'll... let you sleep over?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Why? Is it hard? Hahaha

김여주

No... I've never let anyone sleep over before... and I don't have a cousin either...

민윤기 image

민윤기

Hahaha, are you treating me like the kids? That's a bit too much.

김여주

No... that's not it. It's just that this is the first time this has happened...

민윤기 image

민윤기

There's nothing else. You just have to stay by my side.

김여주

Is that really all you need? You don't need anything else?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Yeah, that's all I need.

김여주

Okay... fine. Go ahead and lie down. I'll sing you a lullaby.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Phew_ Okay, call me quickly heh (lying back down on the bed)

김여주

I'm as scared as I am excited because fate keeps getting jealous of us. I'm just as scared as you are. When you see me~When you touch me

김여주

You are my blue mold, my angel who saved me, my world. I am your calico cat, I came to meet you~

Yoongi fell asleep quickly, perhaps because he was tired, and Yeoju sat on the edge of the bed and tidied his hair.

김여주

He's handsome..

민윤기 image

민윤기

Zzzzz

김여주

...I mean, he's this handsome and raps so well, why didn't he become an idol singer? He would have been super famous.

민윤기 image

민윤기

(With her eyes still closed) I don't really like becoming famous... but I can do anything for you, Yeoju. Because you are the only key that can change me.

김여주

O...yes?

민윤기 image

민윤기

If you want, I can go in person to check on the recording and even attend award ceremonies to show my face. So...

김여주

..?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Don't be too surprised by what I say. We're dating, aren't we?

김여주

That's right..

민윤기 image

민윤기

What's wrong with physical contact between people who are dating? Why are you avoiding it and feeling shy?

김여주

Still... this is my first relationship.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Me too, haha. Everything I do with you is a first and a new beginning. So let's both put it together piece by piece, like assembling a big puzzle.

김여주

...Haha, okay! I'll try my best too.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Okay... haha, then let's try guessing one first.

Yoon-gi grabs Yeoju's wrist, pulls her over, makes her lie down next to him, and hugs her.

김여주

...

Yeoju, who was stiff with embarrassment at first, leaned comfortably against Yoongi after a little while.

민윤기 image

민윤기

..I got one right for now haha

김여주

No compensation?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Compensation, huh...

side_

Yoon-gi lightly kisses Yeoju's forehead and hugs her tightly again.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Ah... it smells good heh

김여주

You're saying I smell good?

민윤기 image

민윤기

Yeah, haha. I can't really explain it, but you have your own unique scent.

김여주

A distinctive scent...

민윤기 image

민윤기

Anyway, you're in a good mood, so you'll probably sleep well.

김여주

If you really fall asleep, I'll leave. I have to go to school again today.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Ah, seriously... can't I just skip today?

김여주

No way~ Uncle, go to sleep quickly.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Tsk... Okay, I'm going to bed first, so hurry up and get ready for school, Yeoju. Call me when school is over and I'll come pick you up.

김여주

Okay~ See you later, Uncle! I'll miss you so, so much at school too.

민윤기 image

민윤기

Yeah, have a safe trip!

bang_

민윤기 image

민윤기

Ugh... I need to get some sleep now... I couldn't sleep yesterday because I was looking at your face all day... My body feels stiff and heavy.

And then, Yoongi falls asleep wrapped tightly in the blanket.

김여주

Ugh... I'm late...

As I stepped out the door, I saw a car that looked obviously expensive.

김여주

What is that car... parked in front of someone's front gate...

buzzing

The window opens and a very familiar silhouette is visible.

변백현 image

변백현

Hello, Yeoju student.

김여주

Huh? Back then... Secretary!

변백현 image

변백현

...Heh, you remember me. Let's get in for now. You must be late.

김여주

Uh... yes!!

변백현 image

변백현

Starting today, I will be in charge of taking Yeoju to school, so please come whenever it is convenient for you. I will be on standby from 6:50.

김여주

Ah, but who...?

변백현 image

변백현

Ah, Chairman Kim Tae-hyung gave the direct order. That is why I came again today.

김여주

iced coffee..

변백현 image

변백현

So please don't feel pressured and just relax.

김여주

Yes...!

The highlight of this episode is the sweet and affectionate Min Yoongi and the caring Kim Taehyung from behind. I love both of them, but how can I choose?
