Hong Ki didn't want to say more about the thing because he knew it was pointless. Shin Hye was one stubborn woman. However, he couldn't help but feel worried about her and how thin she was becoming. He knew netizens had often criticized her because of her weight, and that it was something that, as the years passed by, started to trouble Shin Hye.

"Don't matter what people say, you're beautiful Shin Hye. If you are going on with these diets, I just hope is for yourself."

"Don't worry about me, HongStar" she said, smiling at him "I'm doing this because of the drama. This character is different from others I've done before."

He sighed.

"Ok. I just want to see you well, Shin Hye."

Loving you
Blinded in one moment
By the eyes of that faraway day
Do you still remember?

He was now happy in his new relationship with Bo Reum, but he still held Shin Hye as one of the people dearest to his heart. Even since they were close to each other again, they were one of the few constants they had in that crazy life that they'd decided to live.

She hadn't seen Jong Suk in a long time, mostly because they were both busy filming their respective dramas, but also because of the rumours that started last year after some pictures of them together were taken. Shin Hye couldn't help but compare that situation to what happened to Yong Hwa and her: would she really let go of a friend so good to her just because of what antis would say?

She remembered how she always had fun with Jong Suk, and that he had a special way to comfort her heart with his wisdom and quiet, calm temper.

Your image in my memory
Is so dazzling
I couldn’t breathe

So, she called him.

"Hey, when can we get together? Let's have pizza" She wasn't supposed to eat those kinds of things, but Jong Suk would be horrified to se her diet. She would just keep exercising as always to keep her figure. One night of pizza couldn't hurt that much. "and we can watch one of those silly romantic comedies that we like."

Shin Hye heard him laughing from the other side of the phone.

"That sounds good. What about Friday night? I'll
