Coincidence or Destiny ?A week had passed since the concert. It had been recorded by one of the fans and uploaded to Youtube. Many people had viewed it and commented as well. The success of the group made me think that they could really be known. When Tae Woon was at the company, I decided to talk to his parents. We were having tea in the lounge. Luckily, Su Bin unconsciously helped me by opening a conversation on the topic.
Su Bin : a friend of mine told me that she watched Tae Woon's concert on the Internet
You : nae, it had been uploaded by a fan
Su Bin : I never saw any of his concerts
You : he doesn't have much actually. It was the fifth one
Su Bin : Yeobo we should go to the next one
Hyun Woo : I don't like loud music
Su Bin : have you ever heard our son's work ?
Hyun Woo : a-ni...
You : Tae Woon is really talented you know
Su Bin : can you show the video to me ~~~~ ?
You : with pleasure Eomeonim
Su Bin : ah right~ just say Eomma from now on
You : yeah Eomma
I sat between her and Hyun Woo on the couch and started playing the video which I had download. Su Bin was cheering even though it was only a video. Hyun Woo acted as if he wasn't interested in it but I knew that he glanced regularly at my phone. Su Bin was moving her head to the rhythm and I wished Tae Woon could see it. He would be so happy to know how his music made his mother happy. When the video was over, Su Bin clapped her hands endlessly.
Su Bin : you're a good singer ~~~~. Tae Woon and you are so cute~ !
You : aigoo Eomma.. I'm nothing compared to them
Hyun Woo : it's the fifth concert you said ?
We both turned our head to him with a smirk. Hyun Woo knew well what it meant. He also knew that we wanted to hear him say it.
Hyun Woo : okay okay.. it's not so bad
Su Bin : it's very good !
Hyun Woo : how many songs did they produce ?
You : I don't know exactly
Su Bin : Tae Woon seems at ease on a stage
You : it's his dream you know. The other guys are all trainees. They all want to become idols
Su Bin : he doesn't try to achieve his goal because of the company ?
You : mm well.. he knows that his responsibility is to take after Hyun Woo Abeonim so..
Su Bin : do you hear it Yeobo ?
You : don't blame Abeonim. Actually, I think he can help them all
Hyun Woo : how ?
You : if Tae Woon can't be a full time idol, I think he can have his time of glory. Moreover the agency can benefit it
Su Bin : what's your idea ?
You : SPEED can do the CF
Hyun Woo : it's not a bad idea actually
You : jeongmal Abeonim ?? You agree to this ?
Hyun Woo : I didn't say that I agree but.. it's not bad
Su Bin : will the guys be okay ?
You : I bet they'll be happy !
In the afternoon, I decided to go to the company buildings to see Tae Woon. I wanted to tell him about the conversation I had with his parents. I spent a long time in the lobby asking for the way to his office. When finally a young worker gave me the floor and number of the room. The guy was nice enough to accompany me there. His secretary received us. He was busy with someone in the office so I had to wait. In the same room, there was a comfortable couch. I sat there in order to wait. After a quite long moment, a beautiful and I had to admit y girl got out of the office followed by Tae Woon. He had a look I've never seen on his face. The gorgeous woman asked him to call her before leaving. She reminded me of someone but I didn't know where I had seen her in the past. He turned to his secretary to ask something what a meeting he had in the afternoon without noticing my presence. He was about to get into his office again when she told him that I was here. Tae Woon's jaws dropped when he saw me. I grabbed his arm and take him inside. He was still dumbfounded so I made him sit and close the door. I, then, sat on the chair facing his.
Tae Woon : what are you doing here ??
You : I have something to tell you
Tae Woon : what is it ?
You : guess~
Tae Woon : mmm can't you give me an hint ?
You : the company is involved
Tae Woon : are you going to work here ?
You : ani~
Tae Woon : you want me to quit my job ?
You : mwo ?? no way !
Tae Woon : then I don't know what it can be
You : I talked to your father aanndd~ SPEED can work for the companyy
Tae Woon : you mean... the commercial films ??
You : Yeah !
Tae Woon : we can shoot films for the company ??
You : don't you believe me ?
Instead of replying, Tae Woon hugged me tighter than ever. My heart was beating fast even though it wasn't the first he held me like this. We became closer but I still wasn't used to it. I pulled away a bit and he cupped my face.
Tae Woon : you don't know how happy you make me ~~~~
You : aigoo Oppa it's nothing much
Tae Woon : you always come at the right time to make my mood better
You : is there something wrong ?
Tae Woon : forget it.. it doesn't matter anyway ~~~~
You : Oppa, are you alright ?
I haven't noticed it earlier but Tae Woon's eyes were watery. Was it because of what I just announced him or something else ? I caressed his cheek while asking him to tell me what was wrong. However he didn't reveal it. I gave up, tired of pleading.
You : are you still busy ?
Tae Woon : I have work until this afternoon
You : aaw too bad.. do you have so much work to do ?
Tae Woon : I have a meeting for a new product and I have to change lots of things because of the new brand
You : I'm bored alone
Tae Woon : do you... want to stay here ?
You : jinjja ? can I ?
Tae Woon : I'm the boss, aren't I ?
You : woohoo~ thank you Oppa~
Tae Woon : why don't you call me Yeobo for once ?
You : uh ? why should I ?
Tae Woon : you're my wife and if you want to stay here... you have to respect the boss
You : aishh stop teasing
Tae Woon : do you want to go back home alone ?
You : Oppa !
Tae Woon : nae Yeobo~ ?
You : pfff...
Tae Woon : I'm waiting
You : Yeobo~ let me stay~
He laughed while pinching my cheeks.
Tae Woon : how cute you are
You : don't you have to work ?
He nodded and set himself back at his desk. I took my phone out to text some friends. Still, they were slow at replying and I got bored. Looking over at Tae Woon, I noticed how busy he was. A big pile of papers was on his desk and many files were open on the computer. I began watching SPEED's music videos so it would give me ideas for the commercial film. I wanted to help at this duty. I was focusing on Tae Woon's move when the girl appeared. Taken aback, I paused to analyze her. It was her... the gorgeous girl that got out of Tae Woon's office earlier.... his ex...
