Chapter 10

Until We Meet Again

Byul cant concentrate on her project, she always thinks about Yongsun so she stands up and went out of her office. Yongsun was looking at the files when she heard a knock on her door knowing its probably Hyejin

"Come in" she didn't bother looking up when she felt the presence beside her

"Byul! Why are you here? Do you need anything?"

"I'm bored do you wanna go out?" 

"Go out?" she's contemplating on what to do but she can't refuse Byul since she's her boss

"Yeah um... like go somewhere?" little by little Byul is getting discouraged

"Sure!" Byul sighed loudly and Yongsun looked at her like she's going out of her mind

Byul messaged Hyejin and asked her to be in charge of the company, she assigned 5 of her most trusted guards to follow Byul discreetly.

 

Byul and Yongsun left the company and drive to the outskirts of town 

"Where are we going?" Yongsun asks excitedly

"I was thinking of visiting an art gallery just outside of Seoul, I heard it was good and there are not many people during this time of day" she scratched her neck 

"Are you nervous?" asked Yongsun, she picked up this habit of Byul every time she's nervous

"Me? no, no, no!" the two of them laughed since its quite obvious that she is

"Hey, unnie! Did you think about me when I left?" Yongsun looked at Byul and she smiled knowing what the other wants to hear

"You know Byul, I was sad when you left, I think we could have been friends if you didn't leave. I thought about you a lot but knowing that you might not return I have to move on and forget about you" Byul was kind of sad hearing what the other girl said

"Yeah I know, at that time I don't even know when I will return, I was building a future in London along with my family, my father's death came like a boulder crashing all the dreams that I have built. But thinking about it now, even though my father is not here anymore I think he gave me a chance at the life I was really hoping for" Yongsun was confused, Byul's words are too deep for her to understand

"Well I hope that you get what you want Byul" she looked at her briefly 

"I hope so too".

 

They arrived at the gallery and Yongsun was surprised that a place like that exist

"Wow it's so nice here"

"I know right" Byul was happy seeing the amazed look on Yongsun's face

The gallery looks like a mansion, its facade was built with brown bricks just like the ones used at the Baker House in MIT-Cambridge where she studied. The interior is made up of two floors modern and airy with high ceilings and a large chandelier that accentuates the whole building, it is perfect for art displays.

"Wow! it's so big!" everywhere Yongsun looks was breathtaking

The curator Lee Cya of the gallery welcomed the two of them

"Good to see you, Chairman Moon, it's nice of you to visit us" the two of them smiled at him and Yongsun liked the artistic vibe of the curator, he looks young as she assessed 

"It's nice to see you too Mr. Lee, looks like you took good care of the gallery" Mr. Lee smiled proudly at the praise that he got

"Well I can't let you down, Chairman Moon" the two of them exchange courtesy as Yongsun observed the arts that are currently displayed beside them. All of it is modern art to be exact and it really shows the personality of the curator.

 

"Its nice to finally catch up with you Chairman Moon, I'll leave the two of you now and please enjoy" they bowed to each other and then Byul went to Yongsun's side sneaking her arm around her waist. Yongsun felt flustered at her move and lowkey smiled at the gesture.

"I hope I did not leave you for too long unnie" Byul whispered, she looked at the chairman's face finding it very serene and she liked it, honestly she's been enjoying the time they spend together 

"So how do you know Mr. Lee?"
"Well I hired him" now Yongsun is confused

"You hired him? You mean, you own this place?" Byul smirked at her

"Well why do I even ask" Yongsun rolled her eyes as if she asked the obvious

"I don't own everything unnie" Byul reasoned

"I know," she said smacking herself inside 

"Come on let's tour the place" the both of them looked at the pieces that are displayed, every now and then Byul sneaks her hand to hold Yongsun's, the latter didn't bother so they continued doing so.

 

They left the gallery after a while and Byul opened the door for Yongsun, she was blushing at every move that Byul boldly do, making her known the intention but unless Byul told her what this all meant she won't just believe what she's thinking. 

"So where are we going next?" Byul winked as if charming her way on her

"We are going shopping" well that wasn't bad, she likes shopping since she became the vice president she hasn't got the time to go out to buy new stuff to wear, she looked at her clothes and thought that she needed an upgrade.

They arrived at Myeongdong but they didn't go to the usual mall that she used to shop at, they entered a high rise building, the place isn't familiar, she's wondering if there's a mall inside too. 

"What is this place?"

"You haven't been here?" she shakes her head, Byul drive into the parking lot, they reached the 5th level and she saw a special entrance, it's like there is a valet within the parking and they are welcomed by uniformed employees in black and gold. They walk into the door and ushered towards a private elevator

"You're gonna love this unnie" Byul said excitedly, it's like showing Yongsun a new toy

"Well you look excited"

"Of course! I want you to have a good time!" she laughed at Byul's giddiness

"You look like a hamster when you're excited" Byul is shocked

"Am I?" she pouts as if ready to give tantrums

"Oh my god, you're like a kid!" the elevator came to a halt and when the door opens it revealed a floor with different high-end boutiques

"Wow, where are we?" Byul showed her a beautiful smile and guide her outside

"This is where I shop, its an exclusive mall for... you know" she shrugged

"You get what I mean right?" Yongsun nods, she looks around she recognizes some brands, some she doesn't.

 

They looked around and she helped Byul find some suits, dress shirts and shoes, she also looks for suits since she needed to look more intimidating as she can't be seen with Byul in the office wearing her old clothes. When she reached the counter she readily gives her the credit card. The shop owner looked at her like he's seeing a credit card for the first time. Byul saw what happened and went immediately beside Yongsun

"Uhm unnie, we don't use a credit card here" she whispered

"What?! You mean I need to pay in cash?" the look of horror almost made Byul snort out loud

"No unnie, we don't pay here, they know who I am, they just send the bill to Hyejin and they are paid thru bank transfer" Yongsun never thought of something like that

"Wow, that's.... uhm convenient" Byul is on the brink of losing her composure, she doesn't want to embarrass Yongsun so she guides her outside the boutique leaving the things that they bought.

"Hey! We left our clothes" the older girl said 


"Unnie they will deliver it in the company, it's part of their service" she can't help but chuckle

"Well that's a weird shopping experience I ever did"

"Unnie I'm sorry, I thought that you will enjoy this but I think I'm wrong" she was now sulking, Yongsun rubbed Byul's back 

"You know, you're like a baby" she looked at Yongsun with puppy eyes, she put her arms around Yongsun's shoulder and starts whining

"Unnie stop! I'm shy" then she hugged the older girl 

"Omo, omo, omo! Byul-ah there are people looking at us, you're guards even" Byul didn't move, she relaxed in Yongsun's gentle embrace

"I don't care, you don't like it?" Byul said in her baby playful tone

"Actually, I don't mind" Yongsun held Byul tighter, both the girls don't want to let go as if they are in their own world, they didn't notice that the five guards were surrounding them in circle backs facing them. They continued shopping hand in hand, they bought a lot, mostly Byul persuading Yongsun to get everything she wants but she always tells her that she doesn't need a lot and that she's going to pay the clothes eventually

"Why don't you just treat me for dinner in exchange for the shopping spree?" 

"Aren't we going back to the company?"

"Not anymore, I don't want to work after the wonderful day I had"

"Yeah me too". 

The two women continued their hangouts almost every day, they sneak during lunch and go to coffee shops just like close friends. Byul being clingy was a blessing to Yongsun, she wants attention from the other girl and when there are girls looking at Byul in the places they went to and she's being sweet she unconsciously takes advantage of her. Yongsun does not leave Byuls' side, it's like they are always attached to the hip when they are together but when they are in the company, of course, Byul would always give this Chairman Moon aura that sometimes it throws her off. She knows everyone is looking at her, she knows some of the girls in the company have a crush on the chairman, she can't help but be possessive but she needs to learn her limits. Sometimes Byul doesn't go out of her office especially now that they are in a process of revamping the phone line but she can't do anything. She misses the playful clingy Byul, her heart was making fast beats when she thinks of her 'Wait what is this I'm feeling?' she asks herself, 'why does she think of Byul all the time' then someone knocks at her door and when it opened she looked at the person whose nose is scrunched up with those beautiful teeth showing her a genuine smile, it made her heart flutter, oh how she longed for that face to show up, then the realization hit her... 'Oh my god, I think I'm in love with her, I'm in love with Moon Byul E.'
