"You shouldn't let a girl stood up and make your mom worried" Yedam grinned.
"Haha..Haha..Who is the one that adviced me?" Jungwon chuckled. "Seriously! Tell me, You like that employee from marketing Department. What was her name?" Yedam gazed at Jungwon.
"Don't go so ahead. I am not interested in anyone" Jungwon replied with a smirk.
"Don't try to fool me! I can see you" Yedam hissed. "Even today, your face was dazzling when we ran into her near the entrance gate" Yedam said in teasing tone making Jungwon's lips twitch.
"Hey! If you like her, just confess and court her" Yedam said as he stood up while Jungwon slowly massaged his temples.
A frown appeared between his brows when his phone started ringing. "Pick it up, I will go now" Yedam tapped his shoulders lightly.
Jungwon sighed as he reluctantly answered the call. "Hello, mother", He greeted.
"Jungwon, Why don't you ever respect me?" His mother angrily yelled at the phone.
Jungwon closed his eyes, pulling the phone away from his ear to spare his eardrum. He put the phone back to his ear and sighed deeply.
"Calm down. Calm down Mom, okay?"
"Calm down? Do you know that I was burnt with embarrassment?" Jungwon Mother yelled into the phone.
"Mom, I already gave my words. I am not interested in blind date" Jungwon replied in calm tone.
"Jungwon, I am telling you, if you don't want to cut ties with me you better bring your girlfriend" Jungwon Mother said in serious tone and hung up the call.
Jungwon drove to his apartment from his office. He cleans himself and took the bottle from the wine rack. He poured wine into the glass. He gulped the wine through his throat in one go. Then again poured another peg into the glass. He held the glass in his hand tighter.
"Choi Yewon, you make me crazy" Jungwon said looking at the glass and then he laid on the couch touching his back while his legs were hanging to the floor. He closed his eyes and remembered his first meeting with his crush Yewon.

Jungwon could barely open his eyes, his face pale due to excessive blood loss. He stumbled into a soft body which appeared from the corner and made him fell to the ground.
"Mister, Are you okay?" Jungwon heard a soft voice. "Blood....You’re injured. I’ll call an ambulance.” The lady panicked and squatted down beside him.
Jungwon frowned and shook his head, “Don’t … some people are chasing after me …”
"Okay, You will be fine" The lady took out a white handkerchief from her pocket and put pressure on his bleeding abdomen. Jungwon still had his eyes half closed, but he could see the girls delicate, beautiful face. Her eyelashes were fanning like a butterfly’s wings.
Jungwon who slept for over hours felt an arm wrapped around his body as he slowly opened his eyes. At first he thought he was hallucinating when he saw a lady lying down beside him. Catching the sight of a surroundings, it didn't take him long to guess what must have happened. He slowly turned around to face her.
Jungwon unblinked his eyes admiring the lady as she slept soundly. "So pretty," Jungwon thought to himself.
His thought of admiration was cut short prematurely when the lady woke up some minutes later.
The fully awoken lady instantly stood on her feet when she realised how ambiguous their current position was. "I am sorry...I don't mean it.. Are you okay now?" The lady awkwardly asked.
Jungwon lips curled up seeing the lady reaction. "I am good. Thank you" Jungwon said sincerely.
"Thank goodness," The lady heaves a long deep breath. "Hello, my name is Choi Yewon. I bought you here in hospital yesterday" Yewon added.
"Thank you a lot. I make you a lot of trouble" Jungwon showed his gratitude as he gently sat up straight on the bed.
Yewon pushed a doting smile while Jungwon forgot to blink his eyes mesmerized with her smile. He totally fell for her that day.
Jungwon unexpectedly ran into Yewon again in company. They become more close after that. When Jungwon decided to confess to her, he got to learn that Yewon has a Doctor boyfriend. His hopes got scattered in that day. They remaind as a friend type even though Jungwon never saw her as a friend from the first time he met her.

"But are you really okay?" Yewon asked worriedly.
"Yes, Everything is fine. I also got fired from the job. I am so happy. Where I would get this much happy in my life!" Rujin rolled her eyes in sarcastic way.
"I think the guy is very generous person. He drops you till your dorm" Yewon said. "Generous my ass! Don't you heard me properly. He hit me and want to settle with me by recording in his phone. Isn't that so stupid?" Rujin frowned deeply.
"Forget it! You are blessed that you don't get hurt seriously" Yewon said in comforting tone.
"Thank you for letting me stay here. I will move out soon when I got my proper place" Rujin said in low voice.
"Shut up! Who are you thanking?" Yewon said as she pinched Rujin's arm. "Right! Unnie, When will your company announced the selected list for that job that I applied?" Rujin asked as she laid back on the bed she was sitting.
"Yes, it's been many days" Yewon replied.
"Unnie, Don't you have anyone to get the information?" Rujin titled her brows.
