XII.

Russian Roulette

The constant ringing, was deeply infuriating to JaeJoong's ears, that it woke him up from his slumber. He shifted to his side, and pulled the pillow, next to his ear, to cover it. After a while, the irritating sound stopped, and Jae felt relaxed and tried to fall back to sleep, but after tossing and turning on bed, he still couldn't. Groaning, he scratched his head, ready to smack YunHo as soon he sees his face. When his vision adjusted to the light, there he saw a horrifyingly familiar-looking fuschia couch. He glanced to his side, and saw the far side of the room was emitting light through the sheer white curtains. He kept thinking that the room was somewhat recognizable, and as soon as he figured out the answer, his eyes grew wide-open.

"Oh, you're awake," a familiar soft-voice said, making Jae looked up. There he saw Seo who was towering down at him. She was looking at him with a concerned look on her face.

"Feeling better?" 

JaeJoon was about to say yes, but when he tried to hoist himself up, he felt a throbbing pain in his head, and a sick feeling in his stomach, making him stagger in his place. Seeing what was about to happen, Seo immediately rushed to his side, and grabbed his arms and placed it around her shoulders, and her arms were wrapped securely around his waist. "That's a no then," she said when she helped him walked towards the couch. 

Seeing on how close their bodies were, Jae couldn't help but grin stupidly on what was happening. He was so desperate not to let the moment end, that he badly tried to control himself to pull Seo next to her, when she broke their contact. She left him, feeling dejected when she disappeared into the kitchen. After a while, she came back in the living room with a tray in hand. She saw, how Jae was lightly rubbing his temples. 

"Eat this, might make you feel better," she said gently and handed him the bowl and placed a cup of coffe on the table. 

Jae looked at the creamy white soup, "You made this?" 

"Ne," she said nervously as she watch Jae dig in the first the spoon. "Tastes okay?"

"Ne," he answered eagerly. The taste was definitely delicious, and he was glad how his stomach jumped for joy.

"Jinja? That's good then," she said, feeling relieved. Cooking wasn't exactly Seo's strong suit, so making a stranger a soup, was more bone-wrenching than when she tries to cook for Yong. Seo disappeared again into the kitchen, and came back with another bowl in hand. She sat beside Jae, and happily dig in on her own  food. 

Feeling curious, Jae looked over her bowl, and he saw that she was eating cereals. He bit his tongue to stop himself by commenting on how unhealthy her eating habits were. Instead he decided to ask the one thing that bothered him ever since he opened his eyes, "How did I end up here?"

Seo stopped eating, "You really don't know what happened?"

Jae shook his head, Last night was a blur, and he barely can't remember anything. Every time he tried so hard to concentrate, all he see in his head, is the image of YunHo in his balcony. 

"Jinja?" She asked suspiciously, and carefully studied JaeJoong, just to see is he was lying. "You showed up on my apartment, at an ungodly hour, and pounding madly at my door," she explained, while she ate the last pieces of cereals in her bowl. 

"BWO? I hope I didn't say anything weird," he said worriedly. Jae originally had a loose mouth, but he gets crazier when alcohol was already inside his system. 

Fortunately she just shook her head, "You just passed out."

"Jinja? I must have made you worried last night," he said embarrassingly. "I'm sorry."

"It's okay," she said, and gave a smile that didn't reach his eyes. Jae saw, how Seo tensed up slightly when he mentioned about what happened last night. He saw, how she accidentally let go of the spoon when he asked if he said anything, but seeing how Seo was the type of woman that wasn't comfortable in awkward situations like this, he didn't ask any further and just went back to finishing his breakfast.

"Finish yet?" 

"Ne," he answered, and gave her his empty bowl and cup. "Where's the bathroom?" 

Seo pointed to the door at the right, and went back to the kitchen to clean the dirty dishes. As she was soaping the plates, her thoughts floated to things that happened last night. Of course she needed to lie, or else she'll just embarrassed herself when she tells him, how stupid she acted last night. How she breathlessly answered yes, when he begged for her to agree. She felt at ease, when Jae told him that he couldn't remember anything. It was because she still doesn't know the reason why she said yes last nigt. Another reason was, the director was just a mere stranger to her. 

"So where's your fiance?" He asked out of nowhere, putting a cork on Seo's train of thoughts. 

"Business trip," she lied stiffly. Her back was facing him, as she tried to finish soaping all the plates. 

Jae pulled a chair, and took a seat. His eyes feasted at the lovely sight in front of him. "Where?"

"In Europe," she said briefly and washed all the soap from the dishes. 

"When's he coming back?" 

"I don't know yet," she said, while she was drying down the bowl with a towel, "I hope he comes back soon though," she said sadly.

Jae heard how her voice changed when she told him the last sentence. His heart fell, when he saw how deeply in love the woman was with her fiance. 

"Here let me help you with that," Jae stood and went next to her side, grabbing one of the cups. Even for a minute, in that silent moment, Jae felt that for once, being drunk was the best thing that happened last night. 

---

"Are you sure you don't want to change?" Seo called out, when she was changing inside her bedroom. 

"Aniyo, it's okay and besides I already called for someone to come with my car," he said. Seo offered him a change of clothes earlier, which he was 99% positive that it belongs to her fiance. Taking them was a big hurt on his ego, that he told himself he'd rather not change at all, than take those bastard's clothes. 

"So wait, the car's coming to pick you up here?" She asked, as she was coming down the stairs in her dark skinny jeans and flannel shirt. 

"Not really, I'm coming with you in the cafe."

"Bwo? Waeyo?" She exclaimed, as she was trying to put her black Converse on. Oblivious to her, Jae was scrutinizing her in every corner. In truth, JaeJoong was the type, that also has an eye in women's fashion, but seeing her dressed simply like that, he couldn't help but flushed on how beautiful she looks. 

"Secret," he winked at her. 

Seo chuckled, "It's your choice, but I wouldn't think public transportation would do you good."

"That's right so we're taking a taxi instead," he said, happily grabbing hold of her hand, and leading them to the street.

---

The people inside the cafe was taken aback when they saw JaeJoong coming out of a taxi together with Seo. The four guys glued their eyes to them as the two made their way inside the cafe. The customers were looking at them with a different reason in mind, it was because an inhumanely beautiful man fell down the heavens and was making towards the cafe. 

"Good morning," Seo greeted the guys, and went inside the locker room to change; acting normally like any other day. 

"Good morning," JaeJoong greeted them also, and went to the different direction towards the foyer. 

The guys couldn't comprehend what just happened, that they just stood there, looking back and forth at their directions with their mouths wide-open. 

"What just happened?!" Myungsoo asked frustrated. 

---

"What could they bee possibly talking about?" Youngmin asked that other as they were peaking behind a wall, to have a proper look if the foyer.

"Beats me," Myungsoo said boredly, and went back inside the kitchen. 

"Noona's been in there for a long time now," TaeMin commented, and anxiously looking at the scene in the foyer, next to Youngmin. 

"Maybe he's getting her fired," Minwoo said. 

"Pabo! Noona already said that the director saved him from her job," TaeMin remarked. 

"Whatever it is, Director Kim looks very serious," Youngmin observed. 

---

"Are you still going to decline my proposal?" Jae said, using the tone of voice whenever he meets with his clients. 

"Yes." She said coldly.

"Waeyo?" He said, looking dejected again.

"I can't date you. And this proposal of yours, dating for 100 days, its proposterous director." She said, slightly annoyed at the director's persistance. 

"SeoHyun," he said gently in his husky voice,"Just please.. give me a chance."

"But I can't director." How many times do I have to say no, just for you stop already? She thought.

"Waeyo? Because of your fiance?" He asked, and Seo nodded immediately. "But you aren't married yet. I still have a chance Seo, please? PLEASE?" He begged desperately. "Just go out with me, for a 100 days. And if you say no, and I see that we really don't have a chance, I would stop bothering you. Just please Seo? Please...."
