When the fox doesn't know love

17. Dinner appointment

유여주

uh????????????

박우진

Do you want to meet up for dinner? Let's eat.

유여주

No, why me?

박우진

Don't you like me yet?

유여주

I don't give my heart to just anyone.

박우진

He's my ex-boyfriend

박우진

Am I just someone...

유여주

uh.

유여주

Well...at least give me a reason.

박우진

I have a question about 'fate'.

박우진

How about it, do you feel like going on a date?

유여주

He brought me to a bar, saying let's eat.

박우진

Don't you think I'll be able to speak fluently if I get drunk?

유여주

I don't think I have to do anything?

박우진

...

유여주

Excuse me, can I have an Absolut vodka?

박우진

That's a lot of alcohol, just drink wine.

유여주

Alpha.

박우진

Please give me some wine too.

+

Here it is.

_Woojin switched the positions of the vodka in front of me and the wine in front of Woojin.

유여주

Oh my? What are you doing?

박우진

You drink wine.

유여주

why

박우진

How much can you drink?

유여주

It's my first time drinking alcohol

박우진

Are you out of your mind? Who drinks vodka when it's your first time?

유여주

How would you know if it was your first time drinking it?

유여주

More than that, how do you know?

유여주

That...fate

박우진

I've been seeing a red thread on my little finger for a while now.

박우진

I went to a shaman and she said it was a thread of fate.

박우진

But according to the shaman, he saw a fox.

_What should I say in response?

유여주

....

박우진

Do you know anything about foxes?

유여주

fox?

박우진

A fox from a folk tale that eats human livers.

유여주

If a fox lives for 1000 years, it becomes a gumiho, and if a gumiho eats 9 human livers, it becomes human.

유여주

that?

박우진

Oh, that fox.

_Fortunately, Woojin doesn't seem to be able to see where the thread is connected.

유여주

well.

유여주

Can you help me?

박우진

?

유여주

You, that fox...

박우진

Why? You hate me, don't you?

유여주

No, who said they didn't like it?

유여주

I'll help you starting tomorrow.

유여주

I'll meet you every day after filming and help you.

_I wonder if this is an answer I won't regret.

박우진

thanks.

_We then just drank in silence for 20 minutes.

박우진

You stop drinking now.

유여주

Ah, why Woojin?

박우진

You are drunk.

박우진

I really can't drink it.

유여주

I can drink more, Woojin

박우진

The injection is also special.

박우진

When you're drunk, you call people's names at the end of every sentence, right?

유여주

Wow, am I really drunk? Wow

박우진

Let's stop drinking now.

유여주

Then will you date me?? Woojin??

박우진

..uh??

유여주

Do you know how many years I suffered because of you?

유여주

Park Woojin, every time an article about you comes up, I think about how much-..!!

+

Park Woojin?? That idol that's popular these days?

+

Isn't that Yoo Yeo-ju next to you?

+

Who is Yoo Yeo-ju?

+

There's that guy, the writer of that drama Ilpyeonwol, whose last episode came out a few months ago

+

Wow, but why are they together? And at a bar?

박우진

Let's go, Yoo Yeo-ju.

-Woojin tries to leave as people start murmuring.

-The female protagonist holds Woojin's hand.

유여주

If you promise to date me, I'll go out (-s ...

박우진

...

박우진

If you go out...

박우진

Let's go out and talk.

_How far did I come down? I came down the stairs from the 10th floor bar to the 5th floor.

유여주

wait for a sec,

_He stopped Woojin as he was about to go down to the first floor.

박우진

why

유여주

We need to talk about this

유여주

Are you going to date me?

박우진

Ha....scam.

박우진

Let's date.

_After that, I fainted.

박우진

Are you awake?

유여주

What, why are you in my house?

유여주

How did you get in??

박우진

under..

박우진

You opened the door and dragged me in by force?

박우진

Don't you remember anything?

유여주

...uh

박우진

Then what do you say if I do this?

_Woojin pulled my wrist and interlocked his hand with mine.

유여주

What are you doing???!!!!!??

박우진

Let's date.

유여주

Crazy guy.

박우진

Oh my, Yoo Yeo-ju is swearing now?

박우진

You told me to date you.

유여주

What is that-

-side

_Woojin gave her a brief kiss on the lips.

_He bit his lips in surprise and widened the distance between himself and Woojin.

유여주

No, that was when I was drunk

박우진

I did it while drunk, what should I do?

박우진

The article said we were dating.

유여주

what..?

박우진

I have to buy it.

유여주

If I explain-

박우진

What will change if I explain it?

박우진

'This time, Yoo Yeo-joo saw the director of the drama that Park Woo-jin is starring in together.'

박우진

Why are you spreading rumors here and there and telling me to get off?

박우진

You honestly have feelings for me too, so aren't you just saying those things when you're drunk?

유여주

...

박우진

Hey..are you crying..?

박우진

Do you hate me that much?

유여주

You like Park Ga-eul, right?

유여주

And why are you doing this to me?

박우진

What are you talking about?

박우진

Why do I like him?

박우진

I only have you...

박우진

Oh, that's okay.

유여주

You liked autumn, that's why you dated me.

박우진

No, what I said in that alley...

박우진

Even if I misunderstand, it's strange...

유여주

Then what is it...

박우진

It's true that I started dating Ga-eul because she told me to.

박우진

I liked you..

박우진

When we were dating, I worried every time you cried, and when you smiled, I got excited for no reason.

박우진

But you know Ga-eul's personality. You have to say that in front of her.

박우진

Every time I saw bruises on your body, I felt so upset.

박우진

So don't cry...

유여주

Ugh..

_I hugged Woojin's waist and cried for a long time.

_If this is another lie, I'll be so miserable, but I'm so happy.

박우진

My fate? Honestly, I wish it was you.

_Oh no, I'm a fox.

_You'll hate it if you see it.

_I'd rather it weren't like that.

유여주

...

박우진

Are you done crying now?

유여주

Park Woojin..

박우진

Oh, tell me.

유여주

But let's not really date.

박우진

...why?

박우진

Sorry.

유여주

what

박우진

I lied.

유여주

I already apologized.

박우진

I... like you a lot.

유여주

I like you too.

유여주

But, I have no confidence.

박우진

...

박우진

Time has come like this...

박우진

There's filming tomorrow too.

박우진

I'll pick you up at 10 o'clock.

유여주

..hi

박우진

good night.

_Why did the smile Woojin gave before leaving the house look so sad?

유여주

Ah, number heh

-🎶

유여주

-hello?

박우진

This is my number.

유여주

When did you save it?

유여주

Oh, you're still in our neighborhood? Should I take you there?

박우진

That would be nice

박우진

Because I'm scared to send you alone.

박우진

Good night, see you tomorrow morning

유여주
