“I hope today filming end quickly,” he said while walking pass her.

“Is he teasing me or what?. After avoiding me like that, why suddenly sent me that kind of text, ” don’t know why she get angry after heard that.

His filming end early today, but Sooyoung still in the set to prepare for another scene, then someone call her,

“Hello,” she said, “I’m still working right now, I don’t know if I can come,” she said, because it’s really awkward if they watch the drama together, just the two of them when they are not that close,

“Don’t lie to me, the set that you are preparing now is the last for today, ” he said, “my manager will come to pick you up an hour later, before watching the drama, let’s have dinner,” he said, Sooyoung just keep silent, “then, if you keep silent it’s yes,” he said, but before he end the call,

“Wait. Can you just tell me about Lee sunbae, without watching drama or having dinner together?,” she said, “I just afraid that something bad will happen to you,” she said.

“Are you sure it’s because of that?, not because you feel nervous after imagining something wild?,” he teasing her, she hold her anger, “just come, the wild thing that you imagining won’t happen, don’t worry,” he said then end the call, “Hyung, let’s go the mart, I want to make pasta for her,” he said, his manager doesn’t know what to do just do as he asked, “you look worried, hyung.”

“Should I be happy now?, when you behave like this, what’s wrong with you?, if CEO found out about this, both of us will die for sure,” he said.

“I won’t get caught, ” he’s trying to make his manager less worry. Both of them go the mart and bought what Sungjae need for make pasta,

“You know how to cook pasta?,” he asked on her way to Sungjae’s apartement, he’s nodding, “are you kidding me?, you always put weird stuffs everytime you cook,” he said.

“I won’t do it to this food,” he said then smiling, they arrived in Sungjae apartement’s parking area, ”just wait little bit before go, I always sense someone following me everytime I comeback from filming,” he get of from the car to take something, then he back to the car and taking out the blanket, “let’s go, after 5 minutes,” he said then laying down while putting the blanket on top of his body,

“Wah..you take out your precious wine for that not so special girl. I don’t know why I do all of this for you, just tell her to come there by taxi, the one who following you won’t noticed,” he said.

“Then, she won’t come…she has a lot of reasons. Let’s go,” he said, making his manager taking a deep sigh, then they go to the manager’s apartement. He is preparing for the dinner while the manager cleaning the living room so they can watch comfortably,

Hyung, the filming will end in 30 minutes, you must go there now..,” he said while busy cooking, his manager just take a rest after cleaning holding his anger,

“I think now you see me as your servant, right?,” he said.

“What are you talking about?, you are my manager and my brother, I just want you to help me this time, only this time, hmm,” he give him his cute face, then his manager goes to filming set to pick Sooyoung up. While in filming set, Sooyoung organzing some stuffs then she get messege from Sungjae that infrom her, his manager on his way to pick her up,

“Why is he insisting to watch his drama together, just let me know who is Lee sunbae,” she look angry, but there is slightly happiness deep inside her heart. She is waiting for his manager in the bus stop near the filming set, it’s already 9 pm, the drama will air an hour later,

“Get in,” the manager said after opening the car window, “what’s your relationship with him?,” he asked her that right after she put on seatbelt,

“We don’t have special relationship, it’s just that, we know each other when we child,” she said then she’s trying to end the conversation, but the manager keep wanting her to speal the bean,

“He never did this before, so I guess, you really special person to him,” he said, they arrived in the manager’s apartement building, “Sungjae-yah,” he calls him right after he open the door, Sungjae come from kitchen with a lot of snack and two cans of beer,

“It’s for you, hyung. You can come again after 3 hours,” he said then smile.

“Don’t do anything that make….,” he didn’t even finish his words,

“Okay, don’t worry,” Sungjae said, Sooyoung still waiting for them outside, she take a peek, Sungjae saw her, “you can come in,” he said, the manager leave them, but before that,

“I’ll be in rooftop, if there is something wrong just call me,” he said then really leave them. Sooyoung come in awkwardly, she never come to a man’s house before,

“Just tell me now,” she said.

“Let’s have dinner first, I prepared it for you. Do you like pasta?,” he asked while walking to the kitchen, Sooyoung follow him from behind, there on the dining table, there are 2 plates of pasta and a bottle of wine, white wine, then he take out two glasses, “sit down,” he said while pulling the chair, she feel more awkward with this kind of atmosphere, “it’s just a simple dinner, I cooked it a while ago,” he said, Sooyoung sit down on the chair, “do you feel awkward?,” he aksed.

“Are you asking because you don’t know?, of course, I feel awkward. Why you did this?, just tell me what you heard about him, then it’s finish, right?.”

“Because, I ever promise you to give you something good, so I give it now..,” he said then smile, “let’s eat now before it cold,” he said, they start eating. Sooyoung is eating while steal glance at him, Sungjae caught it and ask, “why?, is there something you want to ask to me?,” he asked.

“Your manager said, you never did this before, and he asked what kind of relationship do we have. ”

“Hmm I never did this before, what kind of relationship?. We appeared in each other dream because in the past we passed through something bad together, we have special relationship, more special than lover,” he said, after heard that she feel her cheeks hot, “your cheeks redden,” he said while pointing at her cheek, she then touching her cheeks and say,

“It’s really hot here,” she said then drink her wine,

“It’ll make your cheeks redden more,” he said then smiling, “agh..cute,” he said that in such soft voice,

Dinner take 30 minutes, after eating, she goes to the living room where they will watching the drama,

“When will you let me know about Lee sunbae?,” she asked.

“While watching the drama?,” he said while walking to the living room bringing all of kind of fruit, “I’ll tell you while watching this drama,” he said.

“Just do it now, we have 10 minutes until the drama start,” she said while pointing at clock, “tell me”

“That won’t be enough to tell you the full story,” he said.

“Just make it simple, does he really the one who sent me the box?, does he really know my real mother?, like that,” she said.

“Then..yes, he’s the one who sent that box to you, and he really know your real mother, that woman is really your mother, ” he said, after heard that, Sooyoung just keep looking straight at the TV, she looks blank, “are you okay?,” he asked, she doesn’t answer his question,

“Your drama is starting,” she suddenly said that, in the whole drama, she just keep looking like that, it’s like she hold her tears so it won’t fall down, Sungjae know that. After an hour drama, she take a deep sigh and ask him,

“Do you know why she did that?, why did she leave me like that?,” then she face her,

“I don’t really know her reason, but I know part of her story from Changsub,” he said.

“Ah..how did he know my mother?,” she asked him.

“He know her from long time ago, because his sister was your mother’s stylist. After she get pregnant, and have you, she make Changsub’s mom to take care of you while she work, but after the day she give you to his mother, she never show up to his house, at that time she still a model,” he told her story while keep looking at her, “should I continue?,” he asked before continue it because she doesn’t look okay now, she is nodding, “you get closer to him after living in the same house for years, then someday his sister told his mother that she’ll come to pick her up because her mother really want to meet her, she want to meet you in the play ground nearby, so Changsub accompany you to go there. And he thought, that day was when we meet and get kidnapped by that man,” he said then, she is looking at him, they look in to each other eyes, “I’m sorry, because of me, you couldn’t meet her,” he said then suddenly tears fall down from his eyes, she see that and grab his hand,

“It’s not your fault, don’t be like that…”

“If I didn’t approach you and asked you to play with me, they won’t take you with me,” he said.

“It’s not like that, don’t be like that,” she said then hugging him, “it’s not like you know that you will get kidnapped that day, right?. It’s really fortunate that I’m there with you that day, so you didn’t get lonely, if you there by yourself and get kidnapped, I don’t think I would be able to see actor Sungjae today, that cool actor Sungjae who just appeared in a drama,” she said, Sungjae push her then looking at her, he feel something weird from her words, “why?,” she asked,

“You never compliment me before?, is it because I’m crying right now, so you hope after heard that I’ll stop crying?, like that?,” he asked, brining smile in her face,

“I’m sorry for not compliment you before, I did that because I want to did that, if my compliment make you stop crying too, then thanks god,” she said then smiling again to him, “thanks for letting me know about it, I’ll say thank to Lee sunbae too tomorrow,” she said, then standing,

“Where are you going?,” he asked while grabing her hand,

“I’ll go home, it’s already this late,” she said.

“I still have an hour to rent this place, so stay here for an hour again, my manager will drive you home, ” he said then pulling her body again so she can sit next to him, “sing lullaby for me,” he said suddenly,

“Why lullaby?.”

“I want to sleep, today is such a long day,” he said, she look confused,

“Then just sleep, why you want me to sing lullaby?, you won’t get a nice sleep if you sleep on this sofa, just go to the bedroom, and…,” before she continue her words, he suddenly put his head on her lap, “ya..what are you doing right now?, are you crazy?,” she said, and hit him, but then he take her hand and place it on his head,

“Do it like this,” he said then rubbing his head with her hand, she look surprise with all he did, “these days, I didn’t get enough sleep and I keep have bad dream, so I want to know if you can keep that bad dream away from me,” he said.

“That dream catcher couldn’t do that?,” she innocently asked.

“Hmm, it couldn’t help me that much,” he said, then she start rubbing his head make him smile, then he close his eyes, “I want to know if another method will help too,” he said that and back to his seat and move to the floor and sleep there, “sleep next to me, I’ll help you to get rid of those bad dream too,” he said then smiling, she doesn’t know what to do with his behavior,

“You will catch cold if you sleep there, get up and sleep in that bedroom,” she said while helping him to get up, but then he is grinning,

“You want us to sleep there?,” he said while pointing at the only bedroom in this house, she is speechless, why he is suddenly behave like that,

“Then I’ll go home now,” she said, but he stop him once again, then take out blanket and two pillow from bedroom, “what are you trying to do, Yook Sungjae?,” she asked.

“Sleep here, next to me, I’ll became your dream catcher and you’ll became my dream catcher,” he said, but she just standing there, because she really confuse with the whole situation, but he just pull her so now she sleep next to him, he put her hand on his head and put his hand on her head, “like this, now singing a lullaby song,” he said then smile to her, “start,” he said cutely, he start rubbing her head, she automatically start rubbing his head too and singing a song for him. Even before the song end, he already slee, she is looking at him deeply,

“You avoiding me because you feel sorry, I hope you won’t do that again, because I feel you hate me if you did that,” she keep rubbing his head, then suddenly he grab her other hand tightly, “have a nice sleep and dream, I hope that bad dream won’t come again..,” she said then looking at the clock, “the 3 hours rent will be finish in 15 minutes, I’ll leave after that,” she said then smiling, but then she became sleepy and finally they sleep next to each other. Not long after that he open his eyes and looking at her,

“You too, have a nice sleep, sorry for not telling you the full story, I hope I have another chance and another courage to tell you that,” then he take his phone and take photo of her, “do you know that I save some photos of you while you are sleeping, it’s really cute,” he said then smiling and take a look at another photo of her, when she was sleeping at rooftop then rubbing her head again. He take her coat and place it on the sofa, but then something drop from it, when he take it a photo come out from her wallet, he is smiling when he know whose photo of that, “when you like me like this, why you keep saying mean words to me before?, hmm…,” he said, then he take a pen and writing something on the back of that photo and move her to the sofa. Then he leave her and goes to the rooftop to see his manager. There, his manager smoking while keep looking the dark sky, “what are you doing,” he asked after standing next to him, making him startled,

“Yah..,” he said then hit him hard, “where is she?, is she go home?,” he asked,

“She is sleeping on your sofa,” he said, his manager hit him once again, “she look tired, so I thought that it’ll be better for her to take a rest for little bit more,” he said then take a can of beer,

“Do you have plan to date her?,” he suddenly asked that, making him laugh, “so I can prepare.”

“Date her?, I would like to do that, but I couldn’t,” he said then drink the beer.

“That’s right, that’s my dongsaeng,” he said all smile.

“Do you think I said that because I’m still new in this industry, so I won’t date anyone for now, like that?,” he asked, his manager nodding, “that’s not the only reason. I want to date her, I really want to do that, because I fall for her, but I couldn’t because..another story that I couldn’t tell her, because me and one of my family member burying the secret that she want to know,” he said, “if we meet in different situation, I will date her for sure, because I fall for her and I know that she has feeling for me too. But we meet in bad situation with bad people in it,” what he told make his manager confused, he doesn’t know what does he mean, “you don’t have to know what does it mean, just hear what I want to say,” he said that like his manager is someone who is younger than him, “I’m happy, eventhough I couldn’t date her, I have chance to held her hand and sleep next to her,” what he said just now making him earning big hit from his manager, “why?, it’s hurt..,” he said.

“I know that you’ll cause problem someday,” he said then leave him like that.
