Chapter 9
Only One Day
Hana was led into a private room upon arriving at the restaurant
and found Hyung Jun seated there as expected.
She had a good mind to lecture him for rearranging her schedule without her knowledge,
but ended up trying not to laugh out instead when he surprised her with a bouquet of flowers.
“Yah... why are you laughing?”
“I’m not. I’m trying not to... Where did you learn this from? It’s so not you Hyung Jun...”
“Shouldn’t you be at least saying a thank you or something...”
“Thank you”
“...”
He returned to his seat with a sulk and sat down facing Hana,
and she managed speak after suppressing her laughter.
“Out with it... what are you up to again?”
“Just... wanna apologise”
“For?”
“The other day...”
“Oh... it’s ok. I never took it to heart anyways”
The truth in fact was that she was indeed a little upset, but she couldn’t blame him
for getting angry for she would also have been if she were in his shoes.
With all the misunderstandings cleared, they had a good chat over dinner
catching up with each other and headed out for a stroll at the park.
“Why did you agree to do it?”
“Do what?”
“Help my dad, and me...”
“Why not? It was... a good career prospect.”
Hyung Jun stopped suddenly in front of her and looked right into her eyes,
and he grinned when he saw her trying to avoid his gaze.
“Really? I never knew you were so ambitious”
“It would be such a waste to turn down such an opportunity.
Anyways, it’s getting late. I need to go”
“You’re such a lousy liar. Why can’t you just admit that you’ve fallen for me?”
“What?! You... must be thinking too much”
Turning to leave hurriedly, Hana walked as fast as she could but
stopped when Hyung Jun shouted after her.
“You returned everything else except that necklace when you left...
You’re still keeping the key to my heart”
Hyung Jun had caught sight of the necklace she was wearing while having dinner.
It was a heart shaped key necklace which he had specially custom made for her
birthday. And he finally understood Jungmin’s words, and her decision to
accomodate to his dad’s plans.
Flashback
“Please keep this Hana...it’s the key to my heart. I know you’re not ready
for another relationship yet, but I want you to know that I really like you.
And I’ll wait for you no matter how long it takes”
End of Flashback
“Yah Kim Hyung Jun! Do you know how embarrassing it is? There are other people around and”
“I don’t care. You’re gonna make up for causing me so much distress”
He pulled her into a kiss and she struggled for a moment before finally giving in.
“You’re... so irritating”
“But you still couldn’t resist me...”
