Since then, Dongmin has been a little more honest with Jihyun.
After meetings ended, he would naturally wait for Jihyun.
At lunchtime, they sat at the same table.
Jihyun also didn’t push away Dongmin like that.
One time, Jihyun was carrying a stack of documents.
There were quite a lot of documents, so he was carrying them together with Dongmin, when
he suddenly missed a step and Jihyun almost fell.
윤지현
“ Ah...! ”
한동민
“ (( grab
윤지현
“ Huu...,, ”
한동민
“ Are you okay? Didn’t you get hurt? ”
윤지현
“ Yes.. I’m okay ”
한동민
“ Really? Then why is your face red? ”
윤지현
“ ... Because of Team Leader ... ”
As soon as he said that, both of them froze.
Silence began to hang in the air.
윤지현
“ So... that is... ”
한동민
“ Pfft... ㅎ Got it ”
He slowly let go of his hand.
But the moment he started to let go,
Jihyun lightly grabbed his hand.
한동민
“ ?... ”
윤지현
“ ... It was slippery ”
한동민
“ ㅎ .. Yes ” (( smile
That night
the two of them were together in Jihyun’s office reviewing the meeting materials.
It was already past 7.
윤지현
“ I’ll revise this part ”
Jihyun said, looking at the laptop.
Then Dongmin came closer from the side.
한동민
“ Wait a moment ”
윤지현
“ Why? ”
He pointed at Jihyun’s screen.
한동민
“ There’s one number wrong here ”
윤지현
“ Oh, really? ”
Jihyun also leaned in closer.
Dongmin naturally moved closer too.
Their shoulders touched.
윤지현
“ ..... Well ”
Jihyun panicked for a moment.
So flustered that he tried to pull back.
But Dongmin said in a low voice,
한동민
“ Just stay like that ”
윤지현
“ ... Why? ”
한동민
“ Because I like it ”
윤지현
“ Team Leader.. if you do this, I might really.. ”
한동민
“ Might really what? ”
윤지현
“ .. I might like you again ”
Dongmin looked at her for a moment.
Then he answered very quietly.
한동민
“ I hope so ”
윤지현
“ Really...? ”
한동민
“ Yes ,, ”
윤지현
“ You won’t regret it? ”
한동민
“ I already regret it ”
윤지현
“ Regret what? ”
한동민
“ Not knowing it back then ”
Dongmin’s gaze turned serious.
한동민
“ So now I don’t want to lose you ”
윤지현
“ .... ”
A little later, Dongmin gently reached out his hand.
He brushed off a small speck of dust stuck in her hair.
한동민
“ This one, it was stuck there ”
윤지현
“ ... Oh ”
Jihyun froze exactly as she was.
Dongmin didn’t move any further either.
The distance between them grew even closer.
Close enough to touch with just a small movement.
한동민
“ Let’s stop here for today ”
윤지현
“ Huh? ”
한동민
“ If I get any closer, I’m afraid you’ll run away, Manager ”
윤지현
“ .. ”
윤지현
“ I’m not running away ”
한동민
“ ㅎ .. Is that so ”
윤지현
“ ... Um, Team Leader Han ”
한동민
“ Yes? ”
윤지현
“ Thank you.. for waiting for me.. ㅎ ”
한동민
“ ㅎ ,, It’s nothing ”
윤지현
“ Um.. ”
한동민
“ Yes? ”
윤지현
“ .... Thank you for helping me ”
한동민
“ ㅎ ,, Yes ”
The next day, it was company dinner time.
Since the project’s interim results came out well, they were having a dinner gathering.
Jihyun never drank at all, but today she had one or two drinks to match the mood.
Dongmin was sitting across from her, 계속 watching Jihyun.
한동민
“ Manager, are you okay? ”
윤지현
“ Yes, I’m fine ”
한동민
“ Your face is red ”
윤지현
“ I’m fine _ I didn’t drink much ”
That was when it happened.
An employee next to her offered Jihyun a drink.
“ Manager, have one more drink with us ”
윤지현
“ I can’t drink any mo.. ”
한동민
“ I’ll drink it ”
“ Team Leader? ”
한동민
“ Yes, ㅎ ”
윤지현
“ ... ”
“ The two of you are really close, aren’t you ”
Jihyun suddenly felt awkward and just drank water.
After the dinner gathering ended, one by one the employees started going home.
Jihyun came out, slightly drunk and swaying.
Dongmin followed behind her.
한동민
“ Your home.. where is it? ”
윤지현
“ I’m fine ,, ”
한동민
“ You don’t look fine ”
As Jihyun swayed a little, Dongmin immediately held her arm.
한동민
“ You’re swaying like that and you say you’re fine? ”
윤지현
“ ...,, ”
Dongmin supported Jihyun as much as possible and moved with her.
But Jihyun kept swaying, so he had to slow down.
윤지현
“ ... Team Leader Han ”
한동민
“ Yes ”
윤지현
“ Why are you so good to me? Do you like me? ”
한동민
“ Yes, I like you ”
윤지현
“ .. How much? ”
한동민
“ I like you so much it’s hard to explain ”
윤지현
“ Then...,, ”
한동민
“ Yes ”
윤지현
“ Why did you realize my feelings so late? ”
한동민
“ .... Good question, ㅎ ”
윤지현
“ You’re really... an idiot ”
한동민
“ I guess so ”
윤지현
“ (( snort ”
Jihyun snorted with a laugh.
She leaned a little more against Dongmin’s arm.
한동민
“ .... Manager Yoon ”
윤지현
“ Why? ”
한동민
“ If you keep doing this, I... ”
윤지현
“ Doing what...? ”
한동민
“ I might misunderstand ”
윤지현
“ ..... It’s okay to misunderstand ”
한동민
“ Really? ”
윤지현
“ .... A little ”
Jihyun gave a small laugh.
Then she tightened her grip on his arm.
Dongmin looked at Jihyun, then draped his jacket over her shoulders.
한동민
“ You’re cold ”
윤지현
“ I’m not cold ”
한동민
“ Still, it’d be better to wear it ”
윤지현
“ .. Okay ”
Jihyun pulled the jacket closed.
Then she said quietly,
윤지현
“ It’s warm, huh? ㅎ ”
한동민
“ I’m glad ”
윤지현
“ This is my place ”
한동민
“ Is that so? Be careful going in ”
윤지현
“ ... Ah, Team Leader Han ”
한동민
“ Yes? ”
윤지현
“ Thanks for earlier at the dinner ,, I don’t really drink much, ㅎ ”
한동민
“ ㅎ … Glad to hear it ,, See you tomorrow ”
Praise!
