Episode 42 | A Pledge for One Person, by One Person

Past story

The two of them went shopping and returned home.

Jimin decides to make dinner, and Yeoju decides to shower in the meantime.

To the female protagonist who keeps making excuses to not wash,

Jimin is urging me to bring him some clothes to change into.

The female protagonist shouts a word to tease him.

도여주

You didn't even bring underwear?

_The female protagonist, with careful steps, hugs the clothes in her arms and enters the bathroom with a proud smile.

..........

_Jimin, whose face had turned red, quickly got out of here.

10:13 PM

_Jimin, with quite busy steps, sweeps and cleans the space repeatedly.

_Jimin, who put the rolling pin down on the floor for a moment, ran to the kitchen and brought out some steaming food that looked like it was just made.

_Because his hands and feet were busy, small beads of sweat were running down his chin and forming a precarious pattern on the tip of his chin.

_Without even realizing it

도여주

Are you going to eat here-?

_The female protagonist comes in wearing comfortable clothes and her wet hair wrapped tightly in a towel.

박지민

Yeah_ Not that great..?

도여주

No- okay

_The female protagonist sits down straight away and carefully examines the dishes Jimin made.

도여주

What the- You must have used some strength?

박지민 image

박지민

I didn't use it much

도여주

What, this is easy?

_Jimin shrugs his shoulders and shows a mysterious smile at the female protagonist's question.

도여주

Sigh-] Sit here-

_The female protagonist points to a place slightly away from her, but Jimin doesn't even pretend to see her and sits right next to her.

_At that moment, she took off the towel that was covering her head and hung it next to her.

[Fluff-]

_In-nae, Jimin leans his head on Yeoju's shoulder.

도여주

what-?

박지민

I worked really hard

박지민 image

박지민

Thinking of you.

Jimin says, running his hand through his hair and pointing to the small beads of sweat on his forehead.

도여주

Haha, right, I think so-

_The female protagonist looks at Jimin, who is leaning on her shoulder, and responds with eyes that seem to be filled with honey.

..........

_Jimin, who had been looking into the eyes of the female protagonist for a long time, opened his mouth.

박지민 image

박지민

We're so close now.

_The tone of voice is the same as usual, but unlike other times, it seems like the words have multiple meanings.

도여주

....know,

_The female protagonist, embarrassed by Jimin's words, closes her mouth and even swallows a faint smile as she walks away.

도여주

Good work, eat a lot_

박지민 image

박지민

you also.

About an hour passed_

박지민 image

박지민

..my lady,

_As his stomach started to grow full, Jimin put down his chopsticks and called out to the female lead.

도여주

huh_

박지민 image

박지민

I have something to say.

_Suddenly, for some unknown reason, the atmosphere became subdued. And his calm voice lingered within it.

도여주

What is it?

박지민 image

박지민

I....

박지민 image

박지민

I apologize, lady.

_Jimin's sudden words,

_The female protagonist, who was taken aback by him and paused for a moment, nodded slowly and looked at him without saying anything.

박지민 image

박지민

About the things I've done to you so far

박지민 image

박지민

I'm trying to apologize a little late...

I felt like if I didn't do it now, it would be too late.

Because I know that I won't be forgiven just once,

Because I am the one who properly understood your heart while you were cold to me,

Because it was entirely my fault,

Because I still love you_

I have to tell you today.

I'm sorry, I mean it to you.
