Ding-

As I opened the door, I heard a faint ringing of a bell and saw Dong-Hyeon wiping a glass like last time.


김동현
Oh, you're here


김동현
I thought you wouldn't come since there was no answer.


윤여주
But you even contacted me, so I should come.


It was the third time, but I felt a bit empty, so I looked around and realized that the man named Woojin who was there before was gone.


윤여주
Where did Woojin go?


김동현
Oh, I didn't go anywhere


김동현
I'm on vacation today


김동현
Please take a seat here, I'll buy you a drink.


As we sat down, Dong-Hyeon took a bottle from the refrigerator, not the one where the liquor was displayed, and began making a cocktail.

I was looking at the ingredients he had taken out, but there was no bottle that looked like it contained alcohol.


윤여주
Uh...what are you making?


김동현
hmm..


김동현
It's a secret


김동현
Please wait a moment and I'll make it right away.


윤여주
Yes~



As I was watching Dong-Hyeon working hard, I felt awkward in this quiet space and asked a question.


윤여주
Mr. Dong-Hyeon, when did you start learning cocktails?


김동현
It's been a while, right? I first learned it when I was 24... so about 6 years?


윤여주
Oh, then how old are you now...


김동현
I'm thirty


김동현
Are you a bit old?


김동현
What about you, Yeoju?


윤여주
yes?


김동현
How old are you, Ms. Yeoju?


윤여주
I'm 29. There's only a one year age difference.


윤여주
I'm getting old too~

When I mentioned that I was getting old, Donghyun smiled, his eyes crinkling. He really is so pretty when he smiles...

The laughter stops, and he looks at me with his eyes crooked and hands me the finished cocktail.





김동현
Do you like new things?


윤여주
I don't really like it


윤여주
I eat well


김동현
thank god..


윤여주
Is this a mojito?


김동현
Oh, you know? It's a mojito. I make a fantastic mojito, so give it a try.


I sipped the tangy and charming mojito down my throat.

But for some reason, my mind was still clear, even though I blacked out after drinking just a little bit of alcohol.


윤여주
...


윤여주
Huh...?


김동현
Why? What's the problem?


윤여주
No, that's not it


윤여주
I really can't drink that alcohol...


윤여주
I drank this and strangely, I feel lucid?


김동현
I guess so - ?


I tilted my head as he spoke words whose intentions I couldn't understand.

He answers with a smile like before.


김동현
that


김동현
It's non-alcoholic


윤여주
Non...alcoholic...?


김동현
Yes! Non-alcoholic


윤여주
Yeah...?


김동현
It's a cocktail that doesn't contain any alcohol.

So this was it, the reason I didn't get drunk.

But I was curious why they prepared it non-alcoholic without me even asking, so I asked why they made it non-alcoholic.

The answer I got back from him was



김동현
Because I want to talk to Yeoju in a sane state of mind.


김동현
The heroine is cute when she's drunk.


김동현
I'm curious about what kind of charm it has when you're not drunk.


I'm going crazy.

This guy... he might be dangerous...
