Is that guy next door to me?

7. Contact

As soon as Jaemin showed himself to his father, the chairman,

After being scolded so badly that things around me were damaged for several days, I had to go back to work.

Aya... Dad's fists are still the same.

Young Master, are you alright?

Does this... does this look okay?

So why did you suddenly run away from home...

Huh, you don't know because I'm not your secretary.

But I thought you would figure it out right away since you were watching from the side.

You still have a long way to go.

...

If only you had done well from the beginning, this wouldn't have happened...

Huh?

sorry.

(Sigh) I don't even remember how I did it.

I have to finish all of this...

I guess I'll have to work overtime eventually.

Because I was bored, my secretary worked overtime with me.

(Coughs violently.)

...

(Handing over the medicine bottle) Apply some medicine.

...You're so sweet at times like this.

That was something that happened often even before you ran away from home.

Yes, someone who knows that well!

I definitely worked hard before I ran away from home.

(sigh)

You need to do better.

So, Secretary,

Are you going to give me my phone back soon?

...

I'm fine here, so please give me back my phone...

(Handing Jaemin's phone) I was going to give it to you anyway.

oh?

I guess it'll work this time?

No, it wasn't supposed to work.

I've been getting so many calls from someone named Yeoju.

Well... you're not lovers or anything, are you?

Hey, no.

It's just the house next door that I'm attached to.

Secretary, don't you know? I still can't forget Junhee.

...

Still, it seems like the heroine likes the young master.

Huh? Did you read the content?

No... It looks like a preview.

I think the lady will think the same as me.

The house next door that I'm fond of.

I wish it were like that.

I bet you're right? 100%. You want to bet? (Laughs)

Meanwhile, Yeo-ju, who has been waiting for Jae-min's call for several days...

A smile bloomed at Jaemin's reply that finally arrived.

: What, I was worried!

: How have you been? How come there isn't a single article about it?

: I'm doing well. I'm not doing anything that could be reported.

: Were you worried a lot?

: Of course!! How could I not be worried when you suddenly disappeared without a word?

: Thank you. It's been a long time since I've had someone worry about me.

: Are you very upset?

: Yes... a lot.

: How have you been, my lady?

: No... To be honest, I wasn't doing well.

: I'm so worried that I can't even eat properly...

: You seem to have a lot of affection for me.

: Now you can eat a lot with peace of mind.

: Of course! You should eat everything you want to eat.

: What happened to the cafe owner?

: Did you succeed in making milk tea?

: Yes! I'm glad that milk tea sales are increasing.

: thank god.

: So now whenever you think of me, you'll go there and drink milk tea?

: yes?

: no?

: You won't think about me?

The female protagonist was very flustered and confused by Jaemin's plotting...?

'Maybe Jaemin...'

: You have to drink it!

: Of course it's far, but I'll definitely go and drink it.

: Huh? Really?

: But then when can we see each other again?

: Well... well.

: When I come in here, I can't do whatever I want,

: I can't give you a definitive answer.

: Is it true that we can still keep in touch?

: Yes, probably.

: I wasn't supposed to use a cell phone, but my secretary gave it to me.

: yes...?

: Originally, you didn't even have a cell phone?

The female protagonist realized that Jae-min's situation was worse than she thought.

: I'll go now. I have a lot of work to do.

: I'm doing well, so don't skip meals, okay?

...

: Yes, don't push yourself too hard!

...

The heroine regretted her remarks from the previous day.

'If I had answered back then that I wouldn't have done the work...'

'Of course, Jaemin didn't make his choice because of me.'

'Oh, I'm so worried...'
