You become someone else and you look even better.
26. I finally found happiness



๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Should we just get married?


๊นํํ
Okay, let's do it.


I feel like I've finally found happiness.

People around me say that if we get back together, we'll break up again for the same reason, but I feel much better than before.

Honestly, sometimes I wonder why I broke up with him, and I think, "This is why we broke up," but this time, I absolutely didn't want to let that happen.

Now is the time to sort out one by one the things that are hindering us.



You become a man and you look even better.



๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I can go alone_


๊นํํ
Okay. I feel much better now than when I left you alone.


๊นํํ
What time do you finish later?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Hmm...6 o'clock?


๊นํํ
Okay, I'll pick you up here after we're done. Let's eat together.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Yeah lol

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I have to go now. See you later!


๊นํํ
If any weird guys talk to you during a meeting, just ignore them. Okay?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..Before that, oppa, you have to let go of this hand, whether you do it or not.

At those words, Taehyung let out a breathy laugh and let go of Yeoju's hand.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I'll go_

Taehyung let go of her hand and waved until the female lead got on the company elevator.


๊น์์ฐ
Ms. Park Yeo-ju?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..Kim Won-woo?

Taehyung, who had been waving his hand with a smile, suddenly stopped and his expression hardened as if he had seen someone he really didn't want to see.


๊น์์ฐ
This is Kim Won-woo, the person in charge who has scheduled a meeting with Park Yeo-ju today.


๊น์์ฐ
First of all, there's not much time left until the meeting starts. Shall we go up?

Taehyung saw the female protagonist who seemed flustered by the sudden appearance of Kim Wonwoo, and grabbed her wrist as if he had come running.


๊นํํ
..Hey, if anything happens, call me right away. I'll be waiting downstairs.


๊น์์ฐ
What's there to worry about, it's just a meeting.



๊นํํ
I'm worried because it's with you.

At that moment, the elevator that Yeoju and Wonwoo were to take arrived, and Taehyung could only send them off with a worried look.




๊น์์ฐ
Long time no see.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..are you really the person in charge of this meeting?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
So that's why you said you'd do it with me instead of the director.


๊น์์ฐ
No, nothing really. I just wanted to see your face.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Why would you need to see my face? I definitely told you back then. Don't ever show up in front of me or my brother again.


๊น์์ฐ
..are you saying I'm that bad?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Yeah. You said it was my dark past.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
And I'm getting married soon. My brother and I are getting married soon.

Of course not. I will marry you someday, but for now, it was a lie to get Kim Won-woo away.


๊น์์ฐ
You liked me too. Why are you just pretending to be taken advantage of? You said you liked me too.

I was flustered by Wonwoo's increasingly loud voice, but I felt like it was time to end it, so I decided to say everything I wanted to say.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I never said I liked you. I never liked you.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
You're just imagining things. Please come to your senses. I never dated you, and I never liked you.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
When you were always by my side, my life was the worst. Now that I've met you, I'm a little happier.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..I don't want to proceed with personal feelings even when meeting.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Of course, you're too lazy to do that.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Let's really not see each other again after this meeting.

As the female protagonist finished speaking, the elevator arrived with a ding and the female protagonist got off first.

Wonwoo got off the elevator and stood there for a while, looking back on the past time.



๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
My name is Park Yeo-ju, and I work at the academy that will be holding an exhibition at this meeting.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I picked out a few designs and looked at all of them you sent me, and after discussing it with the director, I think this design is the best.

๋ฐ๋๋ฆฌ
Then I will email you the rest of the more detailed parts, focusing on this design.


Throughout the meeting, Yeoju kept a close eye on Kim Wonwoo. Kim Wonwoo had been dazed from hearing Yeoju's words earlier, but by the end of the meeting, he seemed to be focused.

Honestly, I was a little worried. He was someone I really didn't want to see again, but I was worried I'd been too harsh and that it might have had a negative impact.



๊น์์ฐ
I like you.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..Oh, sorry. I like someone.


๊น์์ฐ
Who is it?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I won't tell you that... Anyway, I'm sorry. I can't accept your confession.

Since then, Kim Won-woo seems to have been obsessed with me.


๋ฐ๋๋ฆฌ
..Ms. Yeoju?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Oh, yes yes.

๋ฐ๋๋ฆฌ
What should I do with this part?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Ah, I think this part can be kept simple. I'm afraid it'll get confusing if there are too many things.


I decided not to care anymore.

์คํ 6:03

At the time she told Taehyung, Yeoju came out to the company lobby and looked for Taehyung.

I saw Taehyung sitting on the sofa in the company lobby, waiting quietly, and walked towards him with a big smile.


๊น์์ฐ
Kim Yeo-ju.

As she was walking like that, she heard Wonwoo's voice stopping her, and she turned around with an uncomfortable expression.


๊น์์ฐ
I wanted you to be trapped in the worst possible situation. I wanted you to be hurting as much as I hate you.


๊น์์ฐ
But that's what we think about when we resent each other when we like each other.


๊น์์ฐ
..Congratulations on your wedding.


๊น์์ฐ
Of course, I still can't forgive you.

The female protagonist, who had been quietly listening to Wonwoo, just turned around and passed by Wonwoo.

Wonwoo, as if he had expected it, turned around in the opposite direction and went his own way.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I have no idea what you're saying.


So the female protagonist went back to Taehyung and held his hand.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Oh-. He's kind of handsome.


๊นํํ
What, it's over?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Yeah. It went easier than I thought. You must have been bored.


๊นํํ
No, time passed faster than I thought.


๊นํํ
Didn't Kim Won-woo say anything?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
He said something, but I had to be able to understand what he was saying. So I just told him not to come looking for me anymore, because I was getting married to him soon.


๊นํํ
You said you would marry me?

Taehyung smiles brightly and pats the head of the female lead who proudly told Kim Wonwoo that she would marry him.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..you're not going to do it?


๊นํํ
I told you yesterday, I'm doing it with you.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Right. Then that's fine.


๊นํํ
Let's go eat quickly_



๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Honestly, I was a little scared earlier, right? But my brother told me to come quickly and call him if anything happened. That made me feel a little better.


๊นํํ
Of course I had to run really fast and tell you. Your face looked really flustered.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..was it kind of cool?


๊นํํ
Is it a little cool? It's really, really cool.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Oh my, I'm so good_ I'm going to live in such a good mood.

After finishing all their schedules, the two people filled the last part of the day with time spent together with a relaxed mind.



๊นํํ
..do you really want to marry me?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Yeah. Honestly, if we dated for 6 years, that would have been enough.



๊นํํ
Don't regret saying that. I might suddenly propose to you in a really cool way someday.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
I guess I'll always have to be on my toes_


๊นํํ
Of course. And if anything comes up in the future, tell me everything.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
..suddenly?


๊นํํ
No, well, it's just that. You're the type of person who just keeps worrying inside.


๊นํํ
Don't do that, rely on me now.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
You're all grown up, Kim Taehyung. I raised you so well.

As we both became more mature towards each other, I felt like I wanted to fix each other's shortcomings.

I hope to grow one step further like that.



๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Wow. It's snowing.


๊นํํ
Oh, it's the first snow.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Maybe we're seeing each other again for the first time.


๊นํํ
Ah- I guess I really have to live with Park Yeo-ju.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
That's right_

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
But if I say I'm marrying my brother, my mom and dad will be the happiest.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
You both really like your brother.


๊นํํ
That's right. I'm also quite popular.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Ah, you're really acting like you're all that great today.


๊นํํ
Be quiet. Let me see your eyes.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Oh, hey, you're challenging me to a duel right now. Want to have a staring contest?

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
You threw your eyes first.


๊นํํ
Hey? You just called me a yak. โโOkay, let's fight.


"Ah. Before I put my eyes inside Kim Taehyung's clothes, do it properly, seriously-!"

"You keep speaking informally to me instead of calling me oppa. The more you do that, the more disadvantageous it becomes for you."

"My snowball is huge right now-. If I get hit by this, I'll die. Almost?"


We had a snowball fight outside for a long time.

It's nice to meet someone who accepts me even when I act like a child sometimes.

I'm so glad you're like me. I hope that someday we can both become each other's eternal companions.


Behind the scenes.



๊นํํ
Ah, heroine, I think I have a cold.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
Ugh. He's been coughing non-stop for some reason. That's why I told him not to attack.


๊นํํ
Oh, stop nagging. I'm sick.

๋ฐ์ฌ์ฃผ
It's all your fault_ Just nag me a little, honestly.




It's been 400 days since I've posted this, so it's been a really, really long time๐ค

As those who see my Instagram know, I am in a very important situation right now.

I've reached a point where I need to take a break from writing for a while..!

So I was thinking of coming back with a special episode for Christmas,

Because the 400 days were so important and I really wanted to write

I'm back with this post after a long hiatusโค๏ธ

It's been so long since I've done anything, so the amount and the story might be a bit mixed up, but I still tried my best!

See you on Christmas Day๐โค๏ธ๐
