If I could carve your scent
Episode 11: There's a bit of room for misunderstanding.



_A few days later, at the hospital.


A hospital lobby with warm sunlight streaming through the windows.

She is the one who approaches the female protagonist and speaks to her in a friendly manner as she crosses the lobby with light steps as usual.


필요한역/??
Miss Yeoju, you look happy?


심여주
Oh, really? lol

필요한역/??
Yeah, yeah. What... where are you going?


심여주
No no, at home,


심여주
..Actually, I have to stop by the house, wash up, and go out right away...

필요한역/??
Oh- who? Boyfriend?


심여주
yes?!



심여주
No...! It's business, business.

필요한역/??
Hahaha, yeah, yeah, someone like Yeoju really needs to meet a good person.

필요한역/??
Where can I find a girlfriend who is this bright, kind, and smart?


심여주
Heh heh


심여주
...Even so, you're already married...

필요한역/??
Hahaha, Miss Yeoju. Even if you get a boyfriend, please make sure to get married late.

필요한역/??
Okay? You understand?


심여주
I'll keep that in mind haha

필요한역/??
Haha, go quickly, I held you back too long.


심여주
Well then, I'll be going now!




2 o'clock in the afternoon on a winter day.

It was a day with warm sunlight pouring down from above, giving off a warm feeling that was unusual for the season.

Of course, this is how she feels, and it feels even brighter because she just finished her third shift as a nurse.





심여주
after...

The way home from work under a bright sky, a feeling I haven't felt in a long time.

Her eco-bag dangled pleasantly from the shoulder of her oversized knitted cardigan.



심여주
...When I get home, first thing I do is take a shower and...


심여주
.....




_Actually a few days ago,


He, who had been listening quietly, burst into laughter at the words that were blurted out while hiding his own fluttering feelings.

I was so grateful that I laughed out loud in my excitement, but...



전정국
...Don't misunderstand, I'm just... I'm just so grateful from my perspective, and I feel so supported.


심여주
.....


심여주
..Your sense of humor is really unique... I thought you would never laugh again..


전정국
Well, I'm human too, so of course I find it funny. I'm not someone whose emotions are that closed off.


전정국
...Phew..... Anyway, I mean it when I say thank you.


심여주
.....


As if trying to control his agitated emotions, he slowly swallowed the coffee in front of him, looked at me, and opened his mouth again.



전정국
First of all, how should we decide when we will meet again?


심여주
I'll let you know by contacting me!


심여주
Now, the schedule comes out every Monday... It doesn't change much, but there are variables at the time.


전정국
Yes yes, thank you haha um... and


전정국
I have a few favors to ask...


심여주
Ah, yes yes, please tell me. ....um... ...then and today, the same thing can't happen again..?


전정국
Haha, ...what I'm asking right now might be a bit... personal, but please don't misunderstand!



전정국
Just purely business-like... something like that.


심여주
Oh, of course! It doesn't matter.


전정국
...Yes, first of all...




전정국
''When you come, I hope you at least give me a quick shower.''



전정국
''Body wash, shampoo, soap... things like that don't really matter, just do what you normally do...''


전정국
''I would like you to refrain from using body lotions or oils that have a long-lasting scent after showering.''



전정국
'' ...Oh, of course! You only have to pay a little attention to this on the day you come to see me, and it doesn't matter on other days, yes..! Haha ''

심여주
......


심여주
...Why am I shaking over something so trivial...?


Her hands creaked as she stood before the steamy mirror, her wet body wrapped in a towel.

In my awkward hand was the baby lotion I had bought in a hurry on my way home.



심여주
..Still, I said that regular lotion would be fine, so...



Just starting my first business,


No, strictly speaking, it's just a preparatory stage before we even meet, before we even go to meet,

......


What if I'm already worried about everything...?

It's been a while since I've been this fluffy(?), harmless, and our main characters are laughing and giggling, so I'm really nervous.
