When night falls
It started with a wallet
11:48 PM
홍지유
Oh... I should have said let's meet somewhere else instead of in front of the company... My legs hurt.
홍지유
By the way, where are you? You said you were here first (looked around)
최승철
(Tapping Jiyu's shoulder) Uh...is that your wallet...?
홍지유
Oh, oh yes yes wallet
When I tapped him on the back, he turned around in surprise, listened to what the guy said, and searched through my bag.
홍지유
Here's your wallet.
최승철
Oh yes yes thank you
홍지유
But have we seen each other somewhere? We look familiar...
최승철
Uh..yeah?
He must have thought he knew who he was, the representative. I'm starting to wonder if he's joking with me. But what can I do? Where have I seen him before? All I can think is,
홍지유
Oh, do you work here by any chance? Are you on a different team than me?
최승철
..?yes yes..
He must have been so flustered that he blurted out "yes" without even realizing it. And then he'd think, "So what? I work here, and I'm the CEO, but I'm on a different team."
홍지유
Nice to meet you. I'm Hong Ji-yu. My name is Hong Ji-yu. Let's have dinner together sometime! I'll buy it.
최승철
Haha... This is Choi Seung-cheol. I'm grateful.
12:16 AM
홍지유
Yes, yes, oh, it's late. Are you walking? Should I call a taxi for you? It's dangerous.
최승철
Huh? Oh, it's okay. Jiyu-ssi seems to be walking around. But shouldn't I be the one worrying?
홍지유
Well, I can walk around...
최승철
I don't have a car, so I can't give you a ride. I'll call a taxi or have someone drop you off.
홍지유
Oh, you can just go...
최승철
No. You can only choose between the two I mentioned.
홍지유
Sigh... I don't mind taking a taxi, just give me a ride.
최승철
Yes, yes, where do you live?
홍지유
It's Dia Apartment.
최승철
My house is two blocks away. It's a bit far. It's also really far from work. How do you walk there every day?
홍지유
Just... I just wake up early and walk briskly. Two neighborhoods...??? Isn't it a bit far? Just take a taxi when you go. I'll call you a taxi.
최승철
Yeah yeah~ But even though I look like this, I'm still really strong. What if something happens? Can't you see that my arms are thick?
홍지유
Anyway, just ride it. I'll ask you tomorrow when I see you. Did you ride it or not?
최승철
Are you that worried? If anyone saw me, they'd think I liked you. Don't worry, I'll take a taxi.
홍지유
What are you talking about~ I'm just a person who worries a lot~
홍지유
I'm almost there, so I'll go by myself. I called a taxi, so take it when it comes.
최승철
Yes, thank you. Be careful on your way in.
홍지유
That's right, I'm 26. Let's talk later. Don't be so awkward and use formal language outside of work.
최승철
Okay, let's go in quickly.
최승철
Let's just talk... 26 is still a bit much
최승철
He's a funny guy
Jiyu didn't even know he was the representative, which must have been quite a blow to his pride, but on the other hand, it must have been fun. Besides those three people at home, no one was always comfortable telling her she was the representative, and no one she could comfortably talk to.
