Author's Choice according to this picture.


 

    Yejin is a twenty-four-year old female who just moved to Goyang, South Korea.  Being that she is a top employee back in Iksan, she was chosen to transfer to the office over in the former city.  She worked as an educator.  She taught children, teenagers, and adults how to properly eat.  In other words, she is a dietitian.  The office in Goyang just opened up, and she was selected to move. 

She accepted this transfer to get to know another city.  That and the transfer was hastle free.  She won't have to pay for her apartment until a year after she's been there and her train ticket was paid for as well.  She was informed only two weeks before the transfer, so her boss decided to pay for the bigger things.  Other than the apartment and travel, she had to come up with how she was going to move her belongings. 

She parked her car in the parking space in front of the apartment building.  She closed her door and locked it as she was walking to the main building. 

"Kang Yejin,"  she spoke with a smile to the lady at the counter.

"Yes, number 324."  The lady said while handing the metal key to Yejin.

The younger of the two bowed before leaving the building.  She looked around the apartment buildings and noticed that there were two buildings that had '300'.  Counting the doors, she came to the conclusion she was in the second building and on the top floor.

She walked up the steps and saw someone standing in front of the door.  He wore a light blue sweater and white jeans.  She stood there confused until their eyes met.  She instantly turned into a block of ice when he smiled.  He then walked up to her.

"Kang Yejin, right?"  He asked softly.

"And who are you?"  She asked in a small voice.

"I'm Kim Hanbin.  Your boss informed me of your transfer."  He replied.  "I figured, until you get to know the area, that I could you to your office building."

She tucked some of her hair behind her ear as she was letting this all sink in.  "Are you a co-worker?"

He shook his head.  "No, I work in the building next to yours.  I'm a therapist and phsycology teacher."  He explained. 


She nodded and he noticed her key.  "Your boss wanted me to make sure you arrived here safely.  I hope we can be friends."  He extended his arm to shake her hand.

She nodded again and took his hand gently.  She was about to let go, but he kept a nice grip.  He then started walking her to her apartment door.

"You probably need help bringing things in, right?"  He asked as he watched her unlock her door.


She scratched her head.  "Sorry if I'm picking up the wrong vibe, but you're not wanting to help to flirt with me, are you?"  She was curious.

His eyes widened as he just realised what it seemed like.  "No, Miss Kang."  He furrowed his eyebrows with a scared expression.  "I'm sorry if I made you unconfortable."  He backed away a bit.

She smiled and slightly giggled.  "You're fine.  And yes, I do need help."

Being that they will be seeing each other every morning, Yejin decides to trust him.  She took out her car keys and handed it to the man.  "Don't lose my trust, Hanbin."  She said with a slight smirk.

He bowed before running down the stairs.


She sighed and looked inside the apartment.  It was small - just how she wanted it.  It had one bedroom, a small kitchen, and a sitting area.  She doesn't plan on having company, so only having a couch and a chair is perfect.  The TV was a small, standard issue flat screen while the kitchen came equipped with a microwave, oven, toaster, and coffee maker.  She saw a medium sized fridge/freezer and a dishwasher. 

"I should be able to pay for all of this myself by the end of the year."  She said to aloud as she put her purse down on the chair. 

Hanbin came in with two suit cases and rolled them up against the wall.

"You don't have much."  He gave the car keys back to her.  "Are you planning on transferring back before the end of the year?"  He asked concernedly.

"No, I just didn't want to move everything I have over here."  She laughed.  "I mostly brought clothes and some health supplies.  That's all I need since I can go shopping tomorrow."


He nodded.  "You have everything worked out well then."  He commented.

"I try."  She laughed.


After a few more minutes of small talk, Hanbin decides to go back to his apartment.  "I live in 534.  What time do you want to leave in the mornings?"  He asked before leaving.

"I generally like to get there an hour early.. So I'll be ready to leave by 7am."  She gave a smile.  "I start work at 8am and finish by 7pm."

"Wow, eleven hours?"  He was amazed.

"Lots of kids need lots of teaching."  She replied.  "See you tomorrow."


He bowed before leaving her apartment.

Hanbin awoke the next morning at his usual time - 6am.  He took his shower and ate his breakfast.  He stretched as he walked along the sidewalk to get to Yejin's apartment building.  He made sure that he was going to be there on time, and almost cheered when it just turned 7am when he reached her door. 

He waited a minute or two by looking at his phone and seeing if he had any messages.  He then pressed on the doorbell button.  He heard foot steps come closer and then the bolt unlocking. 

Just like yesterday, she was in a simple shirt and a pair of black jeans.  She had her hair washed and already dried and her shoes were already on.  She had her purse hang over her shoulder carefully.

"Good morning."  He said with a smile.

"How was your night?"  She greeted back.

"Good, did you sleep well?"  He asked as they walk along the sidewalk.

She shrugged.  "New places always creep me out- are the office buildings that close that we can walk?"  She asked.


He nodded and pointed that they were just across the street.  "Of course, when it rains, I definitely take my car."  He laughed.


They reach the complex of buildings.  Her building came up first.  "See you at 7pm."  She said with a wave.

"Right."  He confirmed before walking to his building.


She made her way into the waiting room and instantly saw a girl stand up. 

"Hi!  You're Yejin, right?"  She asked. 

"Ye-yes?"  Everyone seems to know me already.

"Good!  Your new boss is in that office over there.  Your one-on-one room is down that hallway, room number five."  She gave instructions.


Yejin was used to one-on-one lessons.  Usually they would be with a child and mother.  Some of the children rather not be in a classroom when they learn certain things.  She went to the staff room and put her lunch in the fridge.  She then put her purse in her locker before going to her new boss's office.

"Miss Kang, I'm happy that you've made it here well."  He said with a smile.  "Has Hanbin been treating you well?"

"Yes, of course.  He's really a gentleman."  She said while covering her smile with her hand.

The boss caught on to the blush that was on her cheeks, but decided not to address it.  "Good, good.  The lady out in the waiting room's name is Gloria."


She nodded.  After some more information that was given, it was time for Yejin to start working.


Meanwhile, Hanbin sat down in his office.  He released a sigh before he saw a familiar face walk in. 

"Jinwon, what's up?"  He asked as he sat up right.

"Relax man, I heard that you're babysitting another girl."  He said as he folded his arms.  "Is she cute?"

Hanbin smiled and looked down at the table.  "Yeah.. but just like with the other girls, you know that I can't have a relationship with them."

Jinwon huffed.  "Says who?"

"Says me, I don't want to lose their trust over some petty crush."  He sighed.

The other male folded his arms tighter, showing off his body-building physique.  "Just get to know her.  It's like you forget to do that.  Friends know each other too, you know."

"Are you giving me relationship advice?"  Hanbin laughed.


Jinwon sighed.  "Look, do you want to settle down or not?"

"Woah!  Hold up!  I'm twenty-five, I don't need to rush."  Hanbin stood up with wide eyes.

"You'll still say that when you're thirty-five.."  Jinwon said under his breath.


Hanbin hissed before his office door opened again.

"Jinwon, Sir, you're needed back in the gym."  The girl said as she pushed up her glasses.

"Alright, let's go."  He said with a soft expression as he linked his arm with the short girl.


Hanbin scratched his head.  He then shook his head as he imagined what would happen if Yejin would get mad at him for even thinking about flirting.  No matter how much her words make my heart flutter, it's probably just the looks I'm attracted too.  He nodded before picking up a file.


***

It was Saturday morning.  Yejin heard the doorbell.  After a few minutes, she heard it again followed by a few knocks at the door.  She got up out of her bed and lazily walked her way to her front door.  She turned the lock and opened the door.  Her tired eyes looked up at the man in a yellow-orange sweater and black jeans.

His expression changed to being shocked.  "Y-yejin?"

"It's Saturday.. I don't have work today."  She mummbled.

He sighed a touch and nodded.  "Sorry for bothering you then.  I have a half day of work today."  He mentioned.

She nodded and yawned.  "Have fun."

"Hey, would you like to come to dinner with me tonight?  A friend wants to have dinner with me and his girlfriend."  He asked.


She scratched her head.  "No.. I'm fine."  She rejected.


He nodded again and bowed.  "Have a good sleep in, Miss Kang."  He left her door.


She closed the door and went back to her bedroom.  She fell on top of her bed and went right back to sleep.

"Ah, so she just said no, huh?"  Jinwon said with a sigh.  "Oh well, you probably just caught her in the wrong mood."

It was after lunch, and Hanbin was done his work for the day.  He rested against the wall of the gym that was across the sidewalk from his office building.  He joined the other with a sigh and looked down at the carpet.

"I don't think I came off as being a creep though.."  He commented.

"Nah, don't worry.  It takes time.  It took me five years to finally ask my girlfriend to marry me."  He laughed.

"So when's the wedding?"  Hanbin looked into the other male's eyes with a smirk.

Jinwon looked to the side.  "We haven't come up with a date yet." 


Hanbin chuckled a bit.  "Maybe I'll ask her out next week then.  She probably has Sunday's off too."  He snapped his fingers.

"Now you're talking.  Just make it natural."  He gave his advice. 


Skipping time, it was finally dinner time.  Hanbin and the other two entered in a small restaraunt.  Hanbin stayed behind while the other two went to look for a table.  He decided to check his phone for any messages before putting it away for the meal.  He always had respect when it came to sitting at the dinner table.

He put his phone in his pocket and was about to start walking.

"Hanbin?" 

He turned around to see the shorter girl in the doorway.  She walked in the rest of the way while keeping eye contact.  "I'm sorry about this morning, I was just really tired."

"Oh, no, that's okay.  There's always next week, right?"  He replied in a shaky voice.

She looked down.  "Oh..  I guess you've already eaten then.. I'll see you Monday."  She said in a disappointed tone as she opened the door again.


He grabbed her wrist gently.  "No, stay, Yejin.  We just got here."  He said with a smile.

She was shocked at first, but warmed up when their eyes stayed on each other.  "Are you sure?"  She smiled.

Hanbin nodded and leaned down.  He put a small kiss on her forehead.  He knew that she instantly froze.  "I would like to have dinner, just the two of us, next week too."  He mentioned before walking her to the table.


"Hey, you two~"  Jinwon waved.

Yejin hesitantly sat next to Hanbin.

"I can't believe it!  We're finally on a double date!"  The girl with the glasses clapped.

"Well-"  Hanbin was fixing to protest.

"It would be my first for that,"  Yejin said with a smile, "I'm happy to meet my boyfriend's friends too." 

Hanbin grew a smile as he looked down at the table. 

Jinwon raised an eyebrow.  "Woah, went from rejection to relationship, huh?  Cool."  He commented.

Hanbin looked the other way while Yejin smiled.  "Yup, his gentleman nature caught my attention."  She gave a soft smile.
