"Let's flirt, officially"

58 • Attempted discord

도여주

... crazy guy.

I was so dumbfounded that I stared blankly at my phone screen for a long time. Am I even in my right mind? I told you not to see my face again. Where did you hear me?

Suddenly, the bathroom door opened with a bang, and the startled female protagonist dropped the phone she was holding. Jungkook tried to pick up the dropped phone, saying, "What's wrong?"

도여주

Oh, no!! Something happened...

If he saw the text, it was obvious he'd be in for a ruckus. He hurriedly picked up his phone, said it was nothing, and pushed Jeongguk's back out of the bathroom.

도여주

Let's go out quickly - I have to hurry and watch the drama that Jimin oppa is in.

전정국

Huh?, huh... That's right.

남진혁

As expected, no reply...

Even though I sent a text, there was still no reply for quite some time. Even though the message had a read receipt, it was still there. Well, considering what had happened during the day, perhaps that was to be expected.

남진혁

...It's all my fault.

최혜지

- Hello? Joohee.

차주희

- ...What's going on?

최혜지

- By the way, do you have some time tomorrow?

차주희

- Oh, there is... but what's going on?

최혜지

- Let's talk tomorrow, just the two of us. I have something to tell you.

차주희

- Ah... I understand.

Hyeji's smile, the corners of her lips raised as she stared at her disconnected phone, was utterly wicked. It was as if she had some kind of ulterior motive.

최혜지

Yeah. Keep liking it.

최혜지

I wonder what the hell that year was like.

The next morning, a notification rang on his phone. It was the female protagonist waking him up, telling him to get ready for work.

도여주

Jeon Jungkook, wake up. You have to go to work.

전정국

Ugh... I don't want to go.

I didn't want to go anyway, but today, I didn't want to go even more. He hugged the woman standing in front of the bed, sniffing her like a puppy, and spoke.

전정국

Should I take a day off today?

도여주

it hurts?.

전정국

Hmm, not really... but I feel like skipping work today?

It was cute how he acted like a spoiled brat. He stroked Jeongguk's head with his hand, then lifted the blanket that had been covering his neck and spoke.

도여주

But that won't do. If it doesn't hurt, you should go.

전정국

Hey, you're the CEO, so you can skip work every day.

도여주

You don't want to go that much? Haha.

전정국

I'll be free anyway. I've already taken care of all the piling up work... I'm sure I'll just be playing games.

도여주

Okay, if you don't have anything else to do, you can take a day off.

Let's give him permission to rest. He quickly sat up from his bed with a bright expression on his face.

전정국

Well then, shall we go on a date after a long time?

전정국

Whether it's a home date or an outdoor date.

도여주

Is that so? lol

It's not a bad thing to be playing the drums after a long time.

I'm trying to erase yesterday from my memory.

차주희

Why did you ask to meet?

최혜지

I said I wanted to meet up, but I didn't know it would be at a cafe.

차주희

Ah. I don't have any hobbies for spending money like some people.

He seemed to harbor a grudge against the female protagonist, having been accused of being disrespectful a while ago. He didn't hide his discomfort as he brought up the subject.

최혜지

Does that leave a grudge?

차주희

I invited Hyeji, just to say we'd get along. Was there really a reason to embarrass Yeoju like that?

It's true that there is still some resentment left...

Soon, Hyeji's face looked as if she was about to shed tears, and soon, tears as thick as chicken droppings streamed down her cheeks. Then she said that she had no choice.

최혜지

It can't be helped. How can I possibly get along with my husband and the woman who might have a similar relationship?

차주희

What is that...

It was only for a moment, but Hyeji felt Joohee's expression harden, and she smiled inwardly. In South Korea, a country so sensitive to infidelity, there's no woman who wouldn't fall for those words.

최혜지

My husband's ex-lover was Ms. Yeoju...

최혜지

By the way, my husband can't seem to forget Ms. Yeoju. Lately, it seems like he's even been contacting her...

차주희

Now, you want me to believe that?

최혜지

Believe it or not, it's Joo-hee's fault... but I feel a little bad for Joo-hee, who takes Yeo-ju's side...

차주희

...I will never believe it until I hear it directly.

차주희

At least the female protagonist I saw is not the kind of woman who would cheat on the former president.

Joohee, who had been looking at him with a fierce expression, grabbed her handbag that she had left beside her and got up quickly to go outside.

최혜지

Wow, your faith is so strong.

최혜지

Well, it's just a bunch of people meeting each other. It's all the same.

I wiped the tears from my cheeks with a napkin and got up, organizing my handbag.

최혜지

It's a bit off-topic, huh...
