“friend?”
Hyun Je-ha raised the end of his sentence as if it were strange.
When I said friend, one person’s face immediately came to mind.
Until now, he was a person who randomly came and stirred things up as if he couldn’t see the secretary who tried to dissuade him by saying that he shouldn’t be doing this, but today he is politely requesting a meeting.
“Not Namgoonghyuk.”
When the secretary waved both hands in anticipation, Hyeon Je-ha made an expression as if he knew that would happen. Now she had to think of another friend other than Namgoonghyuk.
There was no need to think for long. Because Hyeon Je-ha recently dated only one person.
“Ask them to come in.”
“All right.”
The secretary tilted her head and then stepped away. Then, as I opened the door and spoke to the person outside, I immediately heard the sound of someone walking.
“Seongyul.”
“You didn’t disturb me when I was busy, right?”
Eunyul waved his hand awkwardly. It looked different from when I saw it in the restaurant. He used to touch everything as if it were his, but when he came here, he was even paying attention to me standing in the corner of his office.
“are you okay. sit down.”
Hyun Je-ha stood up and pointed to Eun-yul at the sofa. And while he was trying to sit down, a thought occurred to him and he stood up again.
“Would you like some coffee?”
“ah… … okay.”
Eunyul thought for a moment and nodded. She made her coffee with a faint smile on her face.
“The person outside is the secretary, right?”
“huh.”
“Wouldn’t the secretary make you coffee if you watch it on TV?”
So you looked strangely at the coffee machine in the office. Hyeonjeha gave Eunyul only his share and took it to him.
“I used to drink a lot so I was embarrassed to keep asking my secretary for it.”
Eunyul took the coffee cup, smelled it, and then looked back at Hyeon Jeha. He saw nothing in front of him, but he spoke out of curiosity.
“You still drink a lot of coffee these days, right?”
Like before, I fill it with coffee instead of rice.
Hyeon Je-ha, who looked at Eun-yul’s expression as if she was going to punish her right away if she said that, shook her head.
“I don’t drink like that anymore. “I don’t stop drinking at all, but I drink after eating.”
“That’s a good thing.”
Eunyul drank her coffee with a calm expression. Hyun Je-ha, who was looking at the quiet but bustling movements of smelling the scent again and looking around the office, quietly curled his lips and asked.
There are probably very few people who can express with their body that they have so much to say but find it difficult to say it right away.
“Just say it.”
“hmm? what? what?”
When Hyun Je-ha blurted out, Eun-yul reacted by flinching. Even though the conversation could continue at any time, Hyun Jae-ha was shocked and kindly repeated the same thing, as if he had been stabbed.
“Tell me why you came.”
“Because I haven’t been to the restaurant lately… … “I wonder if I’m eating well.”
“You can ask questions over the phone too.”
“I can’t see your face on the phone. “Since I came to see you, I also wanted to ask you some questions.”
“The introduction is long.”
Hyun Jae-ha said that it was time to take it in moderation, and Eun-yul also knew that it was useless to wait any longer.
“Do you know where Mr. Hajun’s house is? So, the house where Rep. Kang I-heum lives.”
“house?”
No matter how much I told him to tell me the business he came for, it was too random.
“huh. “I was wondering if you’ve been there before.”
“There is, but… … .”
“I guess security isn’t a problem, right?”
Once the questions started, they came out like a flood.
“wait for a sec.”
Hyeon Je-ha, who couldn’t hear, raised his hand to block it.
“Are you planning to go find me?”
“huh.”
“You’re not telling Hajun?”
“I will.”
Eun-yul shook her head and pointed out that Hyeon-jae-ha’s words were incorrect, but that did not lessen her suspicions.
It was because he was asking me for information that could have been obtained more easily if he had told Ha-jun Kang in the first place.
“What are we going to do?”
“We should introduce it formally. hello. “This is Seong Eun-yul, Kang Ha-jun’s fiancé and lover.”
Eunyul waved her hand and asked, “Does it make sense that I didn’t see his face even once?” Hyeonjaeha watched his sly behavior closely, but he could not easily guess his intentions.
As Hyun Je-ha’s gaze lengthened, Eun-yul smiled instead of lowering her hand.
“It must be difficult, right?”
“… … .”
“I know. To be honest, I don’t think they will welcome me in that house. “But I don’t feel like ignoring it completely.”
Eunyul rubbed my chest in a circular motion and patted it. From the moment I entered this office, I felt somewhat intimidated and felt stuffy inside.
“I wonder if as soon as I tell them who I am, I’ll be kicked out without even being able to get past the gate. “Then I think I’ll be a little sad.”
Eunyul was referring to a bad case, but it was close to the truth. Since no one in that house, except for Kang Hye-joo, had a good opinion of Kang Ha-jun, it was obvious that she would be shut out at the door.
When I thought about the cold reaction that Eun-yul would receive, I felt bad. At the same time, Eunyul also looked pitiful at seeing her shoulders drooping.
“It would be nice if someone could help me a little at times like this… … .”
Hyun Jae-ha seemed to fully understand his situation. However, there was something that caught me off guard.
“Why aren’t you going with Ha-jun?”
“I want to do that too, but I’m so busy with work these days that it’s hard to find the time.”
Kang Ha-jun is a busy person by nature. So, although Eunyul’s explanation seemed to make sense, it didn’t work.
“Then Hajun, if you go when you have time… … .”
It was then. With the sound of the door opening, someone stuck their head out.
“Is it still far? come fast. Are you saying I can go now and see my family there?”
It felt like I had seen him somewhere, but he was a stranger. He urged Eun-yul and smiled at Hyeon-jae-ha’s gaze. And he left in the same breath as he came in, and Hyun Je-ha pointed to the door with his finger.
“who is this?”
“friend.”
In response to Eunyul’s calm answer, Hyeonjaeha immediately asked back.
“Is that why you want to go to Hajun’s? I think that friend knows the house too… … .”
“Oh, I told you to wait a little longer.”
Eunyul looked at the door and muttered. There was no such shy smile as had been shown just a moment ago. His face changed to a sour one, and he suddenly grabbed Hyun Je-ha’s hand.
“I’ll just say it bluntly. I’m going to go to that house to say hello, so please come with me. friend.”
Hyun Je-ha frowned as if he did not understand.
“Why do you want to go with a friend?”
“Grandma said I’m going with a friend.”
Eunyul shamelessly and confidently made the request.
* * *
Lim Bong-sun told me to take my friend, so I obediently followed her instructions. She just didn’t mean to push it to the side. If that was the case, she would have had Hyeon Je Ha drag Nam Goong Hyuk into her as well.
“Is that the only reason you want to take me?”
This was the answer I received when I asked Park Jeong-hoon and Hyun Je-ha one by one and explained the reason. Park Jeong-hoon nodded that he would, but Hyeon-jae-ha seemed displeased.
“why? “Because you want to do more?”
Eun-yul wanted only one thing, but when Hyeon-je-ha asked if she wanted to do something more, she made a straight face and turned her head away.
“no.”
“Despicably.”
“You really take advantage of your friends… … .”
“Are you eating well these days?”
Hyun Je-ha’s mouth was glued to Eun-yul’s sudden greeting.
“I can’t see my friend going hungry. “This is especially true for someone who has had a very, very difficult time turning around and becoming a friend.”
I overcame all bad relationships with Hyun Je-ha and became friends. Although he opened his heart to me very casually, I did not take his feelings lightly. No matter how he thought about accepting himself, it wasn’t an easy choice.
So, I decided to think of Hyun Je-ha as a precious friend, but now I just hid those feelings and brought up the deal.
“I will often pack you a packed lunch for you, so come to the restaurant often.”
When I pretended to have a big heart and tapped Hyun Je-ha on the shoulder, he acted as if he was in awe.
“There are restaurants all over the place.”
“A child who doesn’t go to a wide variety of restaurants talks a lot. “You don’t want to eat the food I cook?”
At Eunyul’s words, Hyeonjaeha changed his words.
“I was already planning to come once, but it just turned out well.”
“yes?”
Eunyul smiled and was about to ring the bell, but quickly picked up her cell phone to see if she had forgotten something. Then she seemed to be calling somewhere and she shouted in a bright voice.
“I came to see Ha-jun’s father. “I’ll call you back after I meet you.”
It seems like he clearly doesn’t want to see Kang Ha-jun’s reaction as he just neatly conveys his business and hangs up the phone.
“This is what you said?”
